Simple Christmas Makeup Look

  Hiiiiiiii everybody! We're in December, it's almost Christmas (16 days left) who's excited?!? I decided to do a simple makeup tutorial for Christmas' dinner or a family party you may throw! Hope you like it :)

  First of all, foundation. I wore the Maybelline PURE MAKEUP foundation in the colour 30 natural. I like to apply it using my fingers as it helps to blend better and you won't feel your face heavy or cakey. For concealer I wore the Mary Kay concealer in the colour beige. Also applied with fingers!

  Starting with the eyes, I applied a champagne eyeshadow all over my eyelid as a base. This one is from Lucy Anderson, I guess. I like the pigments it has and how it looks on my skin, sadly the light was terrible when I took the photo so it looks like I have nothing on the eyelid but I do! 

 Then in the outter corner I went with a browny-old pink shadow I have (I'm sorry I don't know where is it from), I blended it until I got soft smokey effect. For the inner corner I went with a white shadow. 

  With the help of a black pencil liner I drew a thin line over my lash line to give the feeling of more lashes. I decided not to do a strong line with the wing because I wanted to do this makeup simple but beautiful.

  For mascara I wore Maybelline Volum' Express Mega Plush Mascara on the top and low lashes. If you want it, you can apply false lashes!

  Last we apply bronzer, we powder our faces to set the makeup and appy red lipsticks to finish with our Christmas makeup look! I hope you liked it, please leave a comment below if you did! 

Goodbye and see you soon!

Smells Like Summer: Getting Ready

  Most of you may be shivering and waiting for a snowy Christmas these days but this is not my case! Living at the end of the world might or might not be an advantage; I love spending my sunny, hot, relaxing  January by the pool, hanging out with friends, reading books or doing any other activity. And it would be absolutely weird if it snows in December!! 

  I decided not to buy a lot of clothes and shoes this year, just what I really need. And, to be honest, I needed new high heels! I don't know about you but I like to go to the night clubs with my friends and dance all night long (it's a thing here, don't get me wrong, I'm not breaking any rule!!) and as the only colour of shoes I have is black, I decided to get a brown ones. These one are perfect.
  The heel is made of wood and the strips that hold your foot is made of leather, I can assure you they're really comfortable! I bought them on a local store but you can get some similar ones here: LINK1 LINK2 LINK3 LINK4 LINK5

  I also bought myself more makeup! I needed a new foundation and I went straight to the beauty shop with the idea of not buying a Maybelline's one but, guess what? I bought a Maybelline's foundation! It's the PURE MAKEUP in the colour 30 natural. I really like it as it's perfect for oily skin and its finish is amazing, it looks like your face is flawless!

  Last but not least,I bought a makeup brush for blending because the one I got before got magically lost. This one is from Jessamy and I think this brand is only available in Argentina and others countries in South America.

  That's all for the "mini-haul", whatever is your doubts, don't be afraid of ask in the comments below!

Goodbye and see you soon!

Top 5 Favourites Lipsticks

 As I'm far away from the hot days, warm beaches and floral dresses I've decided it's time to go out of my comfort zone and wear something different as I'm accustomed to. I mean, it's time to update my standard lipsticks and go ahead for something crazy and unusual.

 It's nothing new to share, I've been having them for a very long time ago but for the last months, I've been wearing a pinky and bit shiny lipgloss gifted by my grandma and sometimes I applied a red crayon from Avon (which I love as it's not super strong, perfect for summer because it gives a pinky red to your lips) but that was all.
 It's fall over here and, since I'm keen on the fashion and beauty world, I've notice that dark lipsticks are perfect for fall and winter and lipglosses and light lipsticks look good for summer (you've descovered America, huh?). So, I rushed into my makeup bag and digged inside it to finally found my darkest lipsticks, I put them over my lips and fell in love immediately. I kinda have some reviews for those, so here we go!

 First of all, Silkey Make Up Color High Impact N°08 (from left to right, the red one) I've bought it last winter because I was pretty crazy about red lipsticks and I wanted to start a red lipsticks collection that I've never done. Anyways, I wore it all winter and I was completely happy with the colour it gives to my lips; at first, I was looking for a mate bright red and felt a little disappointed when I applied it and looked darker and more oily than I've expected but, at last, I ended up feeling comfortable with it. I cannot let out the fact it has a lovely rose smell! 

 Revlon Super Frost Lustrous Lipstick in Cherry Crush 91, I should let you know that I'm a violet-lover and this lipstick is also one of my favourites! It's not a very dark colour but you can notice that you're wearing something violet on your lips. It looks good with a dark eye makeup or something quiet, like a cat eyeline or just a little wing in the outer corner. I may not say that it hydrates or makes your lips softer but I feel it doesn't dry them out and that's a point in favour.

 Lucy Andersons in the colour Berry Extreme 94, this one is my nightmare. I love the colour, I really do; it's, again, a purple one probably a bit darker than the Revlon one but it's nice. The problem with this buddy is that I can't wear it without moisturize my lips with a balm before. It's rough and make my lips uncomfortable like they're tight enough that when I'm going to smile they'll break down. If you're wonder, why do I still wear it is just because the colour but it's not one I'm always having on my lips. Just wear them on some situations and my mood that day.

 L'Oréal Color Riche Violet Saturne 214, again a lovely purple one. To be honest, this one was the first I've worn this fall. It's shiny and I like it, even though I'm not a sparkle obsessed! The colour is super nice, I don't know how to describe it clearly but depends of the ilumination it might look dark or bright, crazy right? I'll wear it when I hang out with friends and probably when I go to a party (calm down, party animal haha)

 Last but not least, the L'Oréal Lipcolour Pencil (I'm sorry I don't know in which colour), another nightmare but a bit more loved than the other one. The colour is absolutely perfect, a orange-red complements perfectly a warm and cosy outfit. But the problem here is the same as the Lucy Anderson one has. It makes my lips tight if I don't moisturise them before. Furthermore, I prefer this one than the other, so it's not a big deal of decisions.   

 Well, that was huge! I've never done a long review like this one but I really hope you enjoy it, I sometime think that everything I write is odd and boring! Hahaha  
 So now tell me, what are your favourites lipsticks for this season? (I know most of you are enjoying the warm weather but I think you do have a favourite lipstick for spring-summer 2014) I love reading comments so let me know below :) 

  Goodbye and see you soon!
