What’s in my makeup bag for winter

/ Analucascardigos / 8 Comments

Hi everyone, welcome back

Winter is here, your makeup bag ready for it?  I love updating my makeup bag for a new season.  So this is the makeup, I like to take with me every where.

This is everything that is in my makeup bag at the moment.

When it comes to makeup, Winter scream moisturized lips. My lips get pretty dry, so I always make sure to carry a lip balm with me.

I love lipsticks, in my makeup bag I always have more than one lipstick, Maybelline Vivid matte Rebel red & Mac whirl are definitely my lipsticks of the moment.

L’Oreal True match concealer – This concealer is pretty amazing in that it actually covers dark circles! It hides my imperfections, stays in place all day and highlights as well.

NYX HD Finishing powder – This powder is so silky smooth on my skin and just works really well.

I love NYX products &  NYX Blush pinched is a beautiful peachy -pink, I just love it.

EliZabeth Arden Bronze I’ve been using this pretty much every time I use makeup. This bronzing powder duo is amazing, blends well and makes my skin look flawlessly blended (naturally)

L’Oreal Paradise mascara –  For me winter makeup is all about the eyes, it’s all about a big coat of mascara to give your lashes some serious length, and that is exactly what this mascara does.

What’s in your makeup bag? Which makeup product can you can’t leave your house without ?

/ Analucascardigos / 2 Comments

Hi everyone, welcome back

It’s definitely Winter Season and I am so ready to get out there with my dark lip, shades, warm and comfy clothes.

I love accessories & jewelry, a elegant watch always looks great. I’m in love with my new watch from Morris York you can buy here and get 10% discount use code Anita44 . 

 

I can’t get enough of all the soft, fuzzy, furry items out right now! 

One of my favorite parts about my winter wear is the sweaters, they can go with everything, I realy like to use warm winter sweaters. 

I love the sweaters in neutral shades of beige, pink and brown. 

My favourite lipstick at the moment  is NYX Liquid suede cream lipstick,  provides you with velvety lips and a soft matte finish all day. Water-resistant formula.

These glow kit from L’Oreal are just amazing for the holiday season. You can do many different makeup looks with it. Another favourite I have been using a lot is the Nuxe Dry oil I love to use oil in winter time because my skin and hair are very dry, so is always good to use a good oil to keep the skin & hair hydrated.

Merry Christmas

L’Oréal Paradise Extatic Mascara

/ Analucascardigos / 8 Comments

Hi everyone, welcome back

I’m back, with a L’Oreal review.

This mascara have a intense volume and spectacular length. Lashes feel feather-soft, without any flaking. I’m impressed with the lightweight feel of the product, Best mascara I’ve ever used. I have very tiny lashes and they made them noticeable. Even after a long, tiring day, the mascara is still perfect.

I used this mascara for a full seven days before writing my review.  Literally I like everything about this mascara , the packaging, the brush and of course, the product.

I highly recommend it.

How to apply:

Brush through lashes by moving back and forth from root to tip. Layer multiple coats for even more volume.

I’d love to know if you’ve tried this mascara, and what’s your thought?! leave your comment below.

L’Oréal true match concealer 

/ Analucascardigos / 9 Comments

Hi everyone, welcome back

L’Oreal True match is a super blendable correcting concealer, helps hide imperfections, blemishes and evens skin tone, gives a perfect base!

The application is perfect ! The consistency is crazy and is very easy to blend!  However the feel of the product is wonderful and it isn’t cakey ….

I really like this concealer. It’s easy to use, easy to blend and has a really nice finish. It has good coverage and improved the look of my under eyes.

Tips how to apply 

1. To cover dark circles:  
The best and most flattering way to conceal your eye area is to draw a triangle under your eye; blend the concealer to instantly cover dark circles and brighten cheek area.
2. To highlight
Apply to the areas of the face that naturally catch the light.
3. To finish brows:
Apply a concealer that is one shade lighter than the skin tone above and below eyebrows and blend.

Apply with sponges, brushes, or fingertips, in a thin layer and then add more thin layers if necessary.

Which concealers do you like best? Have you tried this one? Let me know in the comments below!

Thanks 😉

Hi everyone, welcome back

Today I want to share with you some beauty bits, I recently picked up in London ….

First I want to start from the new perfume for my collection, I never used before Zara fragrances, but I decided to try the Zara Joyful Tuberose ( Christmas collection) this is a floral fruity fragrance, it is delicate,elegant and perfect as a day perfume….

Another product is new for me Is the Maybelline Master Contour Duo Stick, It’s a stick contouring 2 in 1,  Highlight to enhance. A sculpted, V-shaped face.

Revlon Colorstay creme eyeshadow its a nicely pigmented and creamy texture, I bought only one shade in 705,  the exact shade that i have been looking for. It’s perfect for everyday.

L’Oreal perfect match concealer, Instant coverage and smoothing, Corrects skin tone and undertone, Enriched with Caffeine to reduce the appearance of dark circles overtime.

L’Oreal ultra precision liner, I’m keep buying this, at the moment is my favourite eyeliner. It does not smudge or smear on to the upper eyelid. it dries quickly and lasts throughout the day.

Last but not least it’s Olay anti-wrinkle pro vital night cream, I used this cream for a while, but I stopped use it just to try a new products, but now I decided to go back, it’s one of the night cream I really like.

Hi everyone, welcome back

A toner has become an essential item in my skin care routine and I’m always on the lookout for bargain buys on new products.

AGE PERFECT Smoothing Toner has been developed specifically for mature skin. Enriched with Vitamin C and Magnesium, it exfoliates, smoothes and re-invigorates the skin.

Helps to smooth mature skin and reduces the signs of fatigue. Skin feels fresh and looks younger.
Enriched with vitamin C

AGE PERFECT cleansing milk is enriched with Magnesium to cleanse your skin and Vitamin C to re-energise your skin.

The milk leaves the skin soft and comfortable. Used daily, skin looks fresh and revitalize.

The L’Oreal Paris Laboratories have selected and combined extracts of Rose and Lotus Flowers, in a rebalancing cleansing wipe, for soft, comfortable and fresh skin, every day. In a single step, they remove impurities, and even waterproof make-up, for cleaner, softer and purified skin.

With L’Oreal fine flowers gel cream wash, Skin is cleansed and free from impurities. Beyond clean, the wash reveals deeply comfortable skin that feels smooth and silky soft.

Aside from making my skin feel nice and soft, this product does a great job at removing literally all of my makeup at once.
