Avon sun magic tan self-tan bronzing review

Hi everyone, welcome back

Pleasantly, tropical scented self-tanning lotion complements your skin tone for a sun-kissed glow all year round, in just 1 hour. Doesn’t streak when applied properly, non-staining and fast drying. Contains extracts of skin-firming pomegranate, vitamin E, beta carotene, coconut oil and fennel.

I always had naturally darker skin and it never turned red in the sun whilst getting that ideal bronzy look ….. I like to use self – tanning only on my legs, and I found this one perfect for me.  One pump is enough for my entire leg . I massage the mousse from ankles upwards. Slap and dash, massage and blend – legs done. First thing I noticed is that the mousse doesn’t smell as foul as most self-tanning products. It has a tropical smell, which is a relief. 

Fast drying, mousse which provides an immediate, natural-looking tan for bronzed skin.

Keeps the skin soft, and gorgeous colour for long. 

HOW TO USE

  • Prepare – exfoliate dry skin using a scrub or wash cloth
  • Apply – spray onto hands and smooth liberally and evenly onto skin in circular motions to avoid streaking. Wait until completely dry before dressing or exposing to water.

My workspace

Hi everyone, welcome back

Interior design has to be one of my favorite things to discuss. I mean who doesn’t love designing their ideal work space or living room or bedroom or entire house?

It’s always important to work in a space that keeps you inspired and at ease.I usually keep it clean & organize, with only the essentials: (Laptop; notebook; pen …. )

I spend long time out from home, but when I’m at home I love this space, this is the place I work on my blog ….. This room is quit big, is not only office!!! is my beauty room and closet (3 in 1 😉 .

I highly recommend that you transform it into a place that inspires and motivates you.

My desk and shelf is from IKEA ….

I hope you enjoyed this post as much as I did writing it!

My top 5 beauty Faves

Hi everyone, welcome back

I switch around my makeup very frequently. Probably every week, in fact. but this are the ones I’m currently loving ….

The Honey Queen Honeycomb Blusher w7 – Leaves skin illuminated with a light satin sheen. This is one of my favorite blushers ….

NYX Soft matte lip cream  delivers a burst of creamy color and sets to a stunning matte finish. Surprisingly durable, lightweight and delightfully creamy.

L’Oreal Color Appeal Eye shadow Golden Shimmer 23 . One swipe can give you enough color though and it can be packed on a lid….. 

 This eye shadow I had bought long time a go, but never got the chance to use, so I started to use and I love it is a beautiful shadow for summer.

Dior skin forever foundation,  is pretty much just that… perfect. It boasts everlasting wear (up to 16 hours) and takes skin perfection and a matte finish to next level. It’s not oily and as it dries down to the matte finish, it feels like it’s melting into the skin ….

Mark nude matte cream concealer, Covers imperfections, diminishes the appearance of skin texture with a matte, lightweight feel, no caking or creasing!

 

What’s your favorite beauty products ?? 😉

There a multitudes of ways to define your eyes using makeup, but all that mascara, liner, shadow, contour, and highlight can get incredibly confusing…..

Apply eye primer with the help of your finger; the eye primer will even out your skin tone. If you have dark circles, don’t forget to use concealer.

Eye shadow – Select your eye shadow colour according to your taste. looks awesome. If you have selected more colors start form the lightest color and move on to the darkest.

The bronze eye makeup will make you look exclusively stylish not only in night parties but also in daytime functions. Pick up the idea and speak with your eyes.

Highlight your eyes in the right place. Apply a light, sparkly eye shadow right under the eyebrow and in your tear duct. This trick will make it look like light is bouncing off your eyes!

Apply a gel, pencil, or liquid liner on your top lash line. If you have light eyes, go with a brown eyeliner, while brown eyes will pop with black liner. Work the liner into the lash line as close to your eyelashes as you can.

If you want your eyes to look more awake and your brows to look more defined, apply a white eyeliner underneath your brows along your brow bone, then blend.

Your eyelashes are the most beautiful part of your eyes; spend more time to make them even more beautiful. Use a thick mascara brush to apply mascara on your eyelashes.

Curl your eyelashes to make your eyes look bigger. Applying mascara is an easy way to define your eyes, but using a lash curler truly opens them up.
