Urban Decay Naked 3 Soft Rose Makeup Look

I was planning for a long time to  make a new look with my Naked 3 palette, and finally  there were some sunny days (partly sunny ) and I could take decent photos. If you like natural looks, fresh and simple but with a little bit of something you will love this makeup also. I find it a little bit dolly but feminine and different than just the usual Instagram cut crease eye sharp shadow technique that is so viral and not very attractive (in my opinion).
This look is really easy to do, easy to wear and almost perfect for any shape of eye and it will suit perfect brown and green eyes, but also some shades of blue :), so just try it on!


 Story of my life, I took 1000 pictures (not really but lots and lots ) and only a few were good :)).... not even 5 of them ! Here are some of the pictures and also the list of products used, along with the Naked 3 eye shadow palette.

Elizabeth Arden INTERVENE Daily Fluid and Hydra-Splash Toner

Recently I discovered some new skin care products and I have added them to my skin care regimen. Elizabeth Arden INTERVENE Daily Moisture Lotion and Elizabeth Arden Hydra-Splash Toner are two of my new skin care gems and I am really happy I got to try them out.


Elizabeth Arden Hydra-Splash Toner (200 ml ) is probably one of the best toners I have ever put on my face. This toner is alcohol free and it was designed for normal/ dry skin but also suitable for sensitive skin.

Drugstore Makeup Look

Because not everyone has money to splurge on Tom Ford makeup or on any other expensive, de luxe makeup items, I thought I should put together some of my favorite drugstore products and create a simple look, something for every day but still gorgeous. From experience I know that sometimes you can find really nice drugstore products that work just as good as more expensive products or they can be even better.
I don't want to make this post very long and I am just going to list out some of my favorite makeup from drugstore and add few pictures of the look I created.
 So,here we go !


 I think this fresh look amplifies my natural beauty, makes me look younger and flawless. What do you think ?

All About Facial Massage

Like the rest of your body, your face has many muscles, and like your shoulders or back, it gets tight and holds on to stress.

As we age, our skin loses the ability to replenish lost cells, which results in sagging skin and wrinkles. While a set of anti-ageing moisturizers is a good place to start when you notice the first signs of fine lines, a facial massage will really get your skin back to it's beautiful best.


So here are the facial muscles... of topic but very helpful, right under the Zygomaticus muscle you apply blush /contour products. There is the correct place to put your blush.
 
A massage stimulates the muscles and lymphatic system. Every area of the body responds to facial massage. We have 300 pressure points on the face, which relate to every part of the body, so when you have a good face massage you impact every organ. It makes the face glow and takes the tiredness and sluggishness away.

In other words a facial massage is like coffee for the skin. Most of us do the facial massage wrong, with circular motions.

Massaging your face in circular motions only drags at the skin without working the muscles at all. Your facial muscles are actually arranged diagonally in line with your cheekbones (see the imagine above), so long, diagonal strokes upwards will engage with them and tighten up skin.

Thought you had to massage the neck upwards? Wrong, it's actually downwards to get rid of excess fluid being held there....... To my surprise a lot of trained personal from spa and beauty salons does all these things wrong. I am going to explain a little bit how it works and what are the benefits, how to do it by yourself at home and why you should implement facial massage in your skin care routine, starting with today .

Red Carpet Beauty Look

Red lipstick is often the best choice and also the association for strong, successful, stylish and glamorous woman.


 With red lips you can go bold, you can go retro glam, girly, vampy, edgy, classic and never boring or wrong.
 Using a couple of products, I have made this really easy and pretty Red Carpet Look, also perfect for a hot and romantic date on Valentines Day.

5 Favorite Face Masks

Face masks are one of my favorite skin care products and they are the perfect treatments to help you with your skin problems and concerns. The right face masks can help remove excess of oils, improve and detoxify your pores, hydrate the skin. They are also an excellent way of removing skin impurities, relaxing, give  healthy glow to the skin and a wonderful feeling of being pampered.
Everyone should introduce facial masks to their skin care routine, both men and women can benefit and improve their skin condition from using a facial mask.


 By using facial masks on a regular base, you can ensure that your other skin care products (lotions, serums, nighttime creams ) will be absorbed by your skin quicker and deeper and your skin will be more toned, more hydrated and protected. 
 Just one type of mask is not enough, because skin is never the same and it would be great if you have more than a basic clay mask. 


I’ve put together this convenient list of 5 face masks and some tips that will help you soak in all the benefits a face mask can offer.

 Here are 5 of my favorite facial masks.

Catrice Sexy Duo - plum nail polish & lipstick

Plum is one of my favorite colors.
Plum is classic with a modern twist, royal, elegant and in the same time dramatic.

Enough reasons for me to buy two new Catrice products in plum : 95 For Some it's Plum nail polish and 420 Plum Fiction Ultimate Colour Lipstick.


This shade of plum has a lot of magenta in it, more than purple, but I love it! Cool and warm in the same time and so vibrant !

Review Sephora Fiber Masks - Rose and Pomegranate

I realized that I don't go to Paris for the romance or the croissants; not anymore. I go to Paris for Sephora and after that comes the rest...  :) Who needs romance? I only need everything that Sephora sells!


One of my Sephora favorites are the cloth (fiber) facial masks and above all the Rose mask and the Pomegranate mask.  I have no idea if these are limited or you can get them at any time, I hope they are not in limited edition because I find them quite amazing. This is a line of natural fiber sheet masks, easy to use and with a lot of skin benefits.The mask is made out of fiber (cloth) and it goes perfectly on the facial contours.The fiber sheet is infused with active ingredients (rose extract,green tea extract, pearl, ginseng etc) that penetrate and relax skin. These masks are dermatological tested and quick and easy to use, no rinse after.
