Lippies for Spring Part 2: Oranges


Second part of my favorite lip products for spring and summer: today it's the turn of orange, my favorite color to wear especially with a bit of a tan!

Top: L'Oréal Caresse in 200 Princess, Catrice 8h Lip Polish in 030 Strawberry
Bottom: Maybelline Superstay 24h Color in 460 Infinite Coral, Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick 12
Starting with the orange ones (from top left to bottom right):
  • L'Oréal Caresse in 200 Princess: this is a pigmented gloss that stains your lips once the glossy bit is gone, very nice and long lasting;
  • Catrice Made to Stay 8h Lip Polish in 030 Strawberry Secret: this is the sheerest of the bunch and the one I use when I only want a hint of color;
  • Maybelline Superstay 24h Color in 460 Infinite Coral: this is a great stain and I use it as a base for the L'Oreal Caresse or the Rimmel lipstick to make sure they will last longer and there will be more color left if they fade;
  • Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate lipstick in 12: my favorite of these oranges, it is the perfect shade, comfortable to wear and long lasting!
Do you wear orange lipstick? Do you have any suggestion I should check out?

Office Decoration Inspiration

Source | Source | Source | Source When I mentioned in my last post that we found a new house and that we're moving at the beginning of February I got so many enthusiastic replies that I thought I'd share my ideas of how my beauty room will look like. Ever since we visited the house and received the floor plans I have been stalking Pinterest to find inspiration to furnish and decorate the rooms. The idea is for this house to be our intermediate stage while both of us finish our academic paths and find a "real job" and decide where to go live and buy our first home. Therefore we don't want to go all out with a serious furniture investment and keep it affordable and simple by going to Ikea to get the furniture that we're missing. So I though to share with you guys here my ideas to have a functional and pretty beauty room where I can do my makeup, write my blog posts and take pictures. Most importantly I want the room to be filled with sources of inspira

Colourpop pressed eyeshadows – Swatches and comparisons with Makeup Geek

Originally posted on 28 Feb 2017 Single pan pressed eyeshadows are my weakness, I collect them, I love them. Now that I’ve said that, you won’t be surprised that I’m coming to you with a review and swatches of the new Colourpop pressed shadows . Colourpop launched over 30 new pressed eyeshadows in January promoting it as their biggest launch yet. I picked up quite a few in the meantime and have been using them non stop, so here I thought it was about time to talk to you about them.  The first launch consisted of around 30 pressed shadows and the pre-made palettes. I have filmed both a first impression get ready with me ( here ), as well as a more in depth review and swatch video ( here ) on the 12 shadows that I picked up from that round. Of course, in typical Colourpop style, there have been two other launches since, one of the Valentine’s Day Collection (10 shades, swatches and review here ), and another on Valentine’s Day itself, consisting of another 10 shades in beautiful tones of

NYX Tame&Frame is a dupe for Anastasia Bevely Hills DipBrow Pomade? Comparison and swatches

Image
Those brows though! They have been a huge trend for the past few years and Anastasia Beverly Hills has been the undiscussed queen of eyebrows, taking up a huge part of the market and being one of the first to launch innovative products. Among these, the Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade was incredibly hyped and I was one of those convinced to buy it by all the YouTube and blog reviews. After absolutely loving and using the DipBrow for two years, I finally found something that looked the same and cost way less: the NYX Tame&Frame Tinted Brow Pomade . Today I want to compare these two brow pomades, show you swatches and application, to determine if NYX has actually made a dupe for the Anastasia Dipbrow pomade.
