The pinup red lip with Sephora Cream Lip Stain

Sephora Cream Lip Stain in 01 Always Red Lip Swatch

Good morning beauties!
Those of you who know me in person have seen me go through my rockabilly/pinup phase when I had betty bangs, wore bandanas in my hair and wore red lipstick pretty much every day. Since then I moved on, but I am still a really big fan of a matte bright red lipstick and my obsession has been fueled some more when I got my hands on the Sephora Cream Lip Stain in 01 Always red. 


Sephora Cream Lip Stain in 01 Always Red Lip Swatch
I heard Lily Pebbles, Amelia Liana and Vivianna rave about this and picked it up in Madrid a couple of weeks ago (you can read my haul here). Boy am I impressed!!! The color is a perfect bright cool toned red and the texture is very smooth and it dries to a complete matte finish. It feels very comfortable on the lips and only starts feeling dry after around 4 hours, then I just go over it with a light lip balm and I'm set. The lasting power is really amazing and at the end of the day I really need to put effort with wipes and micellar water to get it off. I tell you, it's a keeper!!! The packaging is the typical transparent lip product tube which allows you to see the color of the stain and has a black wand with Sephora written on it which ends with a soft and very good doe foot applicator.
The Sephora Lip Stain reminds me of an even improved version of the Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet liquid lipsticks. I find the application easier with the longer wand and the doe foot applicator seems to collect less product in the Sephora one so when you put it on you don't have excess product on the edge of your lips. 
You can find the lipstick in all Sephora stores and counters or on the website here for 13$. 



Pair this gorgeous red with a winged liner and you're set for a perfect pinup look! :)
Have you tried this stain? Do you have products from the Sephora brand?

Nabla Skin Glazing and Skin Bronzing swatches

Image
 Since their first release last year, the Nabla Cosmetics Skin Glazing formula has been my favorite highlighter and luminous blush formula in my collection. When they released the two new Skin Glazing blushes together with the new Skin Bronzing range in Summer 2020, I couldn’t resist. Check out the video of me trying them out back when they released. The original Nabla Skin Glazing formula is a thin, finely milled luminous powder that feels very firm and hard pressed in the pan. These are not powders with immediate high pigmentation, but rather ultra thin washes of color and light that melt in the skin, giving a lit from within glow. This still holds for the new Skin Bronzing powders. The new shades of Skin Glazing blushes instead are less luminous than the original Truth and Adults Only, and they are more pigmented. I still like the formula very much, but I am not a fan of of the fact that both new shades are pinks. Nabla Skin Glazing Lola The new Nabla Skin Glazing Lola is a pinky co

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
