current make up collection

Inspired by Jenny's Make up collection post, I wanted to do a make up post too.

Everything here is what I like to use now. I use most of the items on a daily basis. I'm already curious to see the changes in my future make up collection posts.

Looking at these pictures make me realize that I don't have as many japanese make up as I would like to have. That's definitely a thing I want to change in the future.

I've also marked my very favourite items with a star.

The reason why I don't have a lot of japanese make up is that I like to buy things in stores and thus get them right away. I hate to wait   But I really adore japanese brands more. I would like to add some new blush from Majolica Majorca or Sleek. But I can also hold on things I really like... for example the blush from Jill Stuart. I bought it 2 years ago haha. Also my Dollywink liquid eyeliner has nearly finished. So I have to replace it soon. I'm thinking of a brown colour one but also heard good things about KATE's waterproof eyeliners. I wouldn't rebuy my concealers although I like them, but I want to try MAC's or Clinique's or the one from Benefit. And I don't have anything from Paul&Joe yet. 

Ah so many new things out there to try !

CLARINS Colour Quench Lip Balm #07 strawberry sorbet

First lip gloss in years! 



There are two reasons why I avoided lip glosses... I hated the sticky feeling and it's complicated to use. I tried some in the past though. One from Candydoll and a few from Canmake. 

None of them convinced me in the long run.  

But since I've moved to a new place I found a huge drugstore which offers make up items from Clarins. You can also get these Colour Quench Lip Balms through Yesstyle. I wanted to try them because of their simple and nice packaging.

Also I can feel I've changed as well. So I'm ready for lip gloss lol

I got my Clarins Colour Quench Lip Balm in #07 strawberry sorbet

From Clarins:

Ingrediens: Extracts of Shea Butter, Wild Mango and Olive perhydrosqualene leave lips supple and well-moisturized. Derivatives of Vitamins A and E reinforce the repairing action and protect against free radicals.

How to apply: For glossy, luscious lips, apply Colour Quench Lip Balm with the Lip Brush either alone or over lipstick in a luminous touch in the middle of the lips.

 

Just the luscious lips to be kissed!

Yumeko’s Weekly Photo Challenge #9 – All Star Makeup Edition

Reading other bloggers favourites was interesting for me since I could see a lot of great products in one post. So this time I wanted to join Yumekos weekly challenge. ┗(＾0＾)┓

1. The Super Star. Something you have used for over a year and will still using

• Urban Decay Naked Palette 1 
• Diorskin Nude Natural Glow Hydrating Makeup SPF 10 in 010 Ivory

I like gold/champagne/neutral eyeshadows so this palette was perfect for me! Maybe I should buy the second palette too?

This Dior foundation is just amazing! It makes my skin look soft and it does a great job with covering freckles. I usually use this in summer because in winter it is too drying for my skin.


2. The Fast Rising Star. Something you have used for over 6 months and will still be using

• L'Oreal Caresse Lipstick in Dating Coral
• MAC Blush in Pinch O'Peach
• MAC Blot Powder Pressed in Medium

• NYX Auto eyebrow pencil in brown

It works great on my eyebrows and stays all day. I can easily blend out the colour with the brush.

3. The Number 1 Draft Pick. Something you just started using and am loving it.

• Chanel Eclat Lumière Highlighter Face Pen in Beige Rosé

It's great for concealing my dark circles. I also use this as a highlighter sometimes when I feel to do the extra job. The packaging is of course great and very sturdy.
Btw. this is my first Chanel make up item I ever bought. It was by coincidence because it was on a mad sale... so I felt guilty not buying it...well! (ＴｪＴ)

4. The FAIL. Something you tried recently and does not work for you.

• Catrice Powder Blush
• Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream

The blush doesn't give much colour on me and doesn't stay long. The Garnier BB cream makes my face very oily. Also its smell won't go away even after hours. I just hate this  lol

5. The Experiment. Something you bought and am going to try next.

• Chanel Joues Contraste Powder Blush 55 In Love

Got this with a sale of 25%. But it's expensive nevertheless. I was in love with it the first time I saw it! Amazing colour and the smell... it smells of roses!! （＠￣∇￣＠）
