7 Beauty Things

‣ Mac "Cork" Lip Pencil: I express the love I feel for this lip pencil here. Soft beige-brown, enough said;

‣ Kiko Long-Lasting Stick Eyeshadow in 05: Kiko's not one of my favourite brands, but these eyeshadow sticks I think are quite incredible. This one I'm loving at the moment is number 05, a beautiful rosy brown. These eyeshadows are creamy, easy to blend and they actually last 8 hours as they promise;

‣ L'Oréal Mega Volume Miss Manga Mascara: L'Oréal never fails with mascaras. The Miss Manga is famous for its 360° flexor brush, which has a conical shape to catch all the lashes. It gives amazing volume and that wide-eyed Manga look;

‣ Rimmel Match Perfection Concealer: Alix from I Covet Thee raves about this little guy, so I decided to give it a go. I'd never expected to love it as much as I do. It conceals dark circles like heaven, and illuminates the eye area. All this stuff for 6€!

‣ Essie "Bobbing for Baubles": On Essie's website, they describe it as a "deepest darkest sapphire" shade. I think it's a perfect description;

‣ Benefit Hoola Matte Bronzer: This little guy is well known in the beauty world. It's a matte powder and you can either contour or bronze up your skin with it;

‣ Nars "Orgasm" blush: Nars. One of his most famous products. Peachy pink with golden shimmer. Natural, healthy-looking color. What else do you need to know?

Another NARS Thing

I know. Isn't it the most beautiful thing you've ever seen in your life? It's pure gold. This is the NARSissist Cheek Studio Palette, and is a Sephora exclusive. 
Here we have: 
- Four exclusive blushes:  I   II   III   Goulue 
- Laguna Bronzing Powder (described as a diffused brown powder with golden shimmer)
- Paloma Contour Blush (pink beige/deep rose)
Needless to say how I'd love to wash my face with these beautiful powders. I've only tried Paloma, Laguna and Goulue, which is similar to Orgasm, but less shimmering and a bit deeper. The pigmentation and lasting power are incredible, just what you'd expect from Nars.

Cork & Whirl

As you may have seen from my previous blog posts (1 & 2) and Instagram feed, I've been pretty obsessed with Mac, lately. It's not just lately, but, whatever. 
Needless to say that any lipstick/lip pencil that screams '90's!' goes right into my heart. And on my lips. Oak and Whirl together are heaven: the lip pencil is a soft beige-brown color, whilst Whirl is a gorgeous dirty rose color. I think I won't wear anything else apart from these two products for a while.

12 Again (And More Fashion Sense)

I used to wear Adidas shoes when I was 12. The ones I had were the black Superstar ones, with aqua green stripes. Oh God, they were horrible.

I never thought that they'd come into fashion again and, most of all, that I'd buy another pair. But, this time, 10 years later, I went for the Adidas Stan Smith White Snakeskin Copper Metallic Gold (I guess?). These are not as bulky as the Superstar, which is good for someone as short as me. Otherwise my legs would look massive!

They're comfortable and cool and I hope they'll last me forever, because they cost me a lung.
