Make-Up Magazine
Hey, sweets! This flu I have is getting on my nerves realllly badly :( I wanted to go on a trip tomorrow, seems like it gets postponed 'til Sunday, hopefully I will feel better by then...
Right now, I wanted to show you a magazine I bought about two weeks ago, because it caught my eye, in Kaufland I think. I've been buying LOTS of magazines as a kid, of all sorts., music magazines, mags for girls, etc. but I haven't bought any for a long time, and when it comes to music and I really want to buy something, it's usually metal magazines. Otherwise, I just read stuff online and focus more of my money on books at this age :P But I HAD to buy this! It's called MAKE-UP MAGAZINE, the name says it all! It's a high quality magazine with lots of tutorials, creative and inspirational make-up, useful information and more.
Here's a sneak peak, I don't want to reveal much of it, just to give you an idea!
Beautiful quality (it leaves me the impression of a book more than a magazine), 96 pages + covers, the price is of 23 Ron. This is nr. 1, I will be collecting this! :D
Hope you make-up crazy people enjoy this magazine as much as I do! x

LOTD: Miami Rock
Aaaaaand here is the party look I mentioned! Unfortunately, on the pictures it didn't turn out as intense as it was in reality, but you get the picture! Electric colors, thick eyeliner and so on! For this I made my skin look more tanned than I am since I can imagine this look for a summer night more like, don't really know why! But if you use less bronzer or a blush in colder tones, with all the cold colors, it can be perfect for this cold season too. So finally, here are some pics:
Products used:
- 180 Eyeshadow Palette
- Manhattan Multi Effect black mono eyeshadow
- Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation in 303 True Nude
- Ciccarelli Glossy Lip Balm
- Laura Mercier Shimmer Bloc in Orchid Mosaic (as highlighter)
- Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara in Extreme Black
- Kallos liquid eyeliner in 01 Black
Do you like this look? Like crazy colors? Leave a comment, don't be shy! ;)

Review: MINERAL HYGIENICS Mineral Enhancer
Good evening, darlings! I'm glad to see some of you enjoyed the look I've posted earlier today! I was usually not a fan of yellow/ golden and purple combination, but it really fit the season and weather today!
I wanted to do this review yesterday evening, but I had pilates, then I got home really tired and could not get myself to gather my thoughts for the post. Though I was anxious because I love this product and it deserves all the attention! Mineral Hygienics made me fall in love with mineral make-up and made it a MUST HAVE in my rutine!
Must confess, this Mineral Enhancer in Warm Kiss is more suitable for summertime for me, since now I am quite pale, and the pigmentation is strong and you only need a minimal amount for very visible results.
It contains shimmer particles which look really pleasant, so even on pale skin, a moderately small amount gives my face some extra life, mainly for a party look! Actually, I have a party look prepared where I used this bronzer/ blush, so stay tuned! ;)
Official description:
'Warm Kiss Mineral Bronzer
'Everyone's favorite! Soft, sheer, subtle sunkissed glow. Create the illusion of radiant, sun-kissed skin! Use as a healthy looking complexion booster, blush, cheek contour, eye shadow or lip color. Our Sheer Mineral Enhancers are light, natural and are perfect for color adjustments to your foundation.'
Swtaches (no primer, directly on skin; first one layer, then 2):
*natural light:
*flash (so you can see the amount of shimmer it has):
Pros:
- mineral benefits
- strong pigmentation, you don't need much product for the desired effect
- a good amount of product for your money
- healthy-looking, yet subtle shimmer
- Mineral Hygienics services, definitely!!! They were very generous, polite and elaborate in their responses, impecable and cute packaging!
- adheres to the skin right VERY well so you need to apply it little by little
- incredible staying power I met in all Mineral Hygienics products!
- cute and ellegant container. Also, doesn't let pigments slip out like so many loose pigments do.
Cons:
- nothing really, just the same 'problems' I face with any product in shape of loose pigments: it can be tricky to carry around and re-touch, needs to be handled carefully since some pigments can fly around very easily when opening for example, BUT it is TOTALLY WORTH IT!
Would I re-purchase it? YES!!! I am glad though I still have a lot of all of my Mineral Hygienics products received in July, eventhough I use them almost daily. I will review the rest of these products (foundations, powder, brushes) very soon!
Oh, by the way, here's a sneak preview of the look I was talking about! I used this bronzer here:
*Note! Reviews contain my personal honest opinion about the product.

LOTD: Autumn Plum
It's a sunny Autumn day and I'm about to go have coffee with some friends. This is the first make-up from the Autumn/ Fall series, even if I'm running late with them. This one and another one I have prepared are just basically wearable, not too heavy make-up looks with a bit of extra. As you can see, I didn't fill in the brows too much either, didn't create a fancy cat-eye-ish eyeliner or false lashes. It's just a game of colors, quickly done. And I chose some colors that I see very fitting for Autumn; shimmery yellowish gold, smoked out with some dark plum.
- Products used:
- 180 Eyeshadow Palette
- Manhattan Multi Effect black mono eyeshadow
- Mineral Hygienics Sheer Mineral Foundation in Light
- Miss Sporty Ohh! Tan So Fine bronzing powder
- Laura Mercier Lip Plumper in Wildberry
- Laura Mercier Shimmer Bloc in Orchid Mosaic
- Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara in Extreme Black
- Kallos liquid eyeliner in 01 Black
Did you like this look? What colors suit this season best for you? x
p.s. Leaving you girls with an awesome song by an awesome band, it will make your day even more awesome! ;)
