Dior

     Review in a hurry

Compared to regular size lipstick

Here is a new edition to my lipstick collection.  It is a mini Dior Lipstick in number 537 . Isn´t it adorable? So tiny and cute. But still really pigmented and bright. It is a hot pink shade with golden shine. I think the touch of gold instantly warms my face. The pigmentation is great, definitely bildable. It just glides on. It is a perfect spring and summer shade. It doesn´t feel drying on the lips and does not have a scent. To be honest I haven't had a chance to play with it, so that is  all I can say. I really like it so far.  What do you think?
 

Love,

I ♥ Spring TAG!

1. Favorite spring nail polish?
 I love all pastel nail colors, but my fave spring shade has to be peachy-nude. I like using Catrice Cosmetics - My Cafe Au Lait At Notre-Dame in number 030, from the ultimate nudes collection. It looks very simple and elegant.  It is going to look even better in summer with a tanned skin.

2. What is your must-have lip color this spring?
The same as for nails goes for the lip colors. In spring time i go for peachy- nude lip shades. The one I will be using the most is Bourjois Peche cosy in number 03 from their new Rouge Edition collection. I love, love, love the color.

3. Show us your favorite spring dress!
Sadly I don´t have a favourite spring dress. To be honest I don´t really like wearing dresses.


4. What's your favorite flower?
I like all the flowers, but my fave have to be roses. I prefer light orange ones.


5. Favorite spring scarf/accessory?
My favourite accessories are necklaces. I like really long ones, but I haven´t been wearing them in a long time. So it is about time to get them back into my life. The one I will probably wear the most in the spring is a vintage looking medallion/clock necklace. I absolutely love it. It looks really nice and simple, but it is so practical.

6. What spring trend(s) are you most excited about this year? (Makeup, fashion or both!)
I am really looking forward to statement sunglasses trend. I think they make the world a better looking place. Ha ha no, I just like how they make things more fun and unique.

7. Favorite spring candle?
I absolutely love the fruity scents. Oranges, mango's,...

 
8. Favorite body spray/perfume for spring?
My fave perfume right now is Beyonce´s Heat perfume. It has a lovely fruity smell, perfect for the spring. It makes me feel special. But I wear it all through the year, not just in the spring.


9. What is spring like where you live?
It is warm and sunny with cooler breeze, not too hot, not too cold, with occasional rainy days, birds are singing, flowers are growing and smelling great. It is very colorful, everyone is outside enjoying themselves, smiling,...


10. What's your favorite thing about spring?
I like that there we are surrounded with all the different colors. In nature and also people wear colorful clothes. It just puts me in a better mood. I also like sitting outside, being lazy and smelling the flowers, and freshly cut grass...it feels like para,para paradise :)


11. Are you a spring cleaner?
I guess so, I don´t like cleaning, but it is very necessary.


12. Any plans for spring break or an upcoming vacation?
To be honest I really want to hang out with my friends, because we rarely see each other, due to school and other things. And maybe take a little trip, but we are still debating. Hope it works out. If not, I will be happy being lazy and doing nothing too, because I just need a break.

Love,

Spring lips

Hello

A while back I shared my top nail color pics for the spring time. So I figured I would show you my top 5 lipstick shades, that I will be rocking this spring. For spring I like wearing nude, orange or light pink shades. Basically, something that keeps my lips moisturized, but still bring some attention to my lips, spice up my outfit.

1. Nivea Beaute - Sunny Orange (70)
    This lipstick is fairly old, It used to belong to my mom. So I am not sure if it is still available. But I really like it. It is very moisturizing, quite pigmented orange, with blue undertones, which makes your teeth appear whiter. It isn´t very long lasting, but most sheer lipsticks aren´t. It is perfect for spring and summer days, when you want something extra. On the lips it looks like a toned down red, that still brings some drama!

2. Maybelline Color Sensational - Cherry Pop (080)
    This one is even more sheer, but surprisingly pigmented enough . I do have to reapply it very often. It is moisturizing and smells really good. The name suggests, that the color should be red, but on the lips it looks pretty orange to me. It is not heavy on the lips at all.

3. Bourjois Rouge Edition - Peche Cosy (03)
    Peche Cosy is my absolute favourite color. Not just from Rouge Edition collection, but overall. The only problem I have with it is the taste. A while back I did a full review on this one, which you can read here.

4. Catrice Cosmetics - Be Natural (010)
    This was my first nude lipstick, that I actually like. It is very pigmented, on the lips it looks shiny, which slowly fades and the color blends beautifully with the natural lip color. Very moisturizing, beautiful color with warm undertones.

5. Catrice Cosmetics - Frozen Rose (130)
    It is a very light, baby pink shade, that looks shiny on the lips. Very moisturising and pigmented. Again the shine fades away in time and leaves beautiful pink lips.




Have you tried any of these? Let me know.

Statement sunglasses

Hello

My favourite spring trend has have to be statement sunglasses. They look so fun and they can definitely spice up any boring outfit. I love bold colors, different shapes, sizes... I is a must for the spring and summer time. This is a great way to stand out and express yourself, your own personality and fashion sense. Have fun!

My absolute favourite are white retro ones. They just look fab. Plus I really like white for spring and summer. Do you like any of these? Are you going to sport statement sunglasses this spring and summer? Let me know.

Love,

Fresh off the runway

It is all about a pop of color for spring and daring, different eye make-up. On the runway it also had white eye lashes and it was combined with deep fushia lips. But for everyday that is a bit too much.
Here is a toned down runway makeup look, that is perfect for spring and very easy to do. It brights up and brings all the attention to the eyes. It looks best combined with nude or natural color lips and light bronzer/blush. I absolutely adore it. What do you think?

Love,

Nial art: Color me pastel

I absolutely love pastel colors at the moment, but I couldn´t decide which shade to choose... therefore I chose them all. Haha. I think they complement one another and the flowers really add a hint of Spring. Do you like it? Let me know.

Love,
