MOTD: Neutral I

*Превод на български най-долу*

Hello!

I wanted to do something really simple and neutral today. Of course, the natural make-up effect on me always gets lost, because I can't resist putting some huge lashes to make it more interesting :D

On the lids I have a beige cream base set with a matte beige eyeshadow. In the crease I've put some matte brown eyeshadows, then I have highligted under the brows and in the inner eye corner with my good old MAC Nylon eyeshadow you're probably tired of reading about. I used liquid liner on the upper lid and then applied upper and lower false eyelashes by Dolly Wink.

MOTD : Pin-up / Dita Von Teese make-up

*Превод на български най-долу*

Hello!


I've been looking at some french vintage cosmetics adverts and vintage post cards lately for inspiration. I really like the 40s and 50s old Hollywood movie stars with the elegant make-up and gorgeous curls. I do like Dita Von Teese and Catherine d'Lish too. I used to be absolutely obsessed with the vintage look 2-3 years ago and a liquid liner and a red lipstick were always present in my handbag. As you can tell from the name of the blog - I really love red lipstick! I decided to go back to the 40s yesterday and dug up my hot roller set. After I put them in my hair I did my make-up which took about 20 minutes. 





First I applied some foundation on my face and blended it evenly with my beauty blender. I used Revlon Colorstay to cover all skin imperfections because red lips attract attention and require a good

MOTD : Blue x Purple

*Превод на български най-долу*


Hello!

I've been alternating between really colourful and neutral looks lately. My mood is changing all the time and you can see that in my make-up. Today  for example I was feeling very summer-y despite the horrible rain. So I decided to make something colorful :)  

The light blue eyeshadow is from a Sleek palette and crumble a bit. It's annoying but it's not that bad if I use a base underneath. They stick well and the fallout is not that bad. The dark blue color in the outer corner is from Urban Decay's Electric Palette which is probably the product I've used most this year. Under the brows and in the inner corner I've used my usual highlighter - MAC Nylon.

MOTD: Red x bronze

*Превод на български най-долу*

Hello!



 Today's make-up was inspired by the beautiful sunsets at the Black Sea coast. The colours are warm (red and orange). I've applied some thin liquid liner. I wanted to try something different so I applied some red eyeshadow as eyeliner in the waterline.

Highlight & Contour III - Powder Highlighters II

*Превод на български най-долу*

Hello!

In two previous posts I described some cream and some pressed highlighters (here and here). In this post I'll finish my highlighter series because I want to describe the contour products I own in the next post.  

Canmake Highlighter 001 



This highlighter is by the Japanese brand Canmake which is a drugstore Japanese brand. I got it off Ebay in 2010 for about 10 USD. I really like Canmake in general. I've used a blusher and a lipgloss by Canmake and loved them. I find the quality really good considering the affordable price. This highlighter  looks really scary and white in the packaging but looks amazing when you blend it. It's very suitable for really pale people - there is no glitter in it, just a nice sheen. 

MOTD: Green

*Превод на български най-долу*

Hello!


Nothing exciting in this post…just another MOTD by me. Today I was thinking that I hadn't done anything green for a while. I dug up my MAC Humid eyeshadow and Fringe from the Urban Decay Electric Palette and that's the result.

Highlight & Contour II - Powder Highlighters

*Превод на български най-долу*

Hello!


I finally found the time to write the second part of this post. In that post I wrote about liquid and cream highlighters and contour products. In today's post I'm going to write about pressed highlighters.

Highlight & Contour I - cream & liquid products

*Превод на български най-долу*



Hello!


I haven't been posting lately because a very dear friend of mine came to visit me and I wanted to give her all of my attention. We were talking about how much highlighting and shading can change the face

Summer Beauty Favs


*Превод на български най-долу*

Hello!




I finally decided to write a short (or not that short) post about my favourite cosmetics this summer. Most things in this post I've had since 2011 but I started using them more often just now. 




MAC Soft’n’gentle MSF

I got this highlighter in 2010 but I hadn't used it much. Not because I didn't like it but because I was obsessed with highlighters then and had others to use (which reminds me I have to make a post about highlighting and contouring products).
This highlighter is a bit more visible than I'd like but it's suitable for summer. It gives the face a nice
