Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara

Hello my beauties!

How is your summer so far? Are you hot? Are you on a beautiful island? Please make me jealous!

But before that, let me tell you about the wonderful surprise I had this morning.

Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara*

I have been reading about this mascara and watching about it n a few YouTube gurus and I immediately fell in love! And now, time has come to try it and show it to you.





As you can see it has the tiny tinniest wand, ideal to colour your bottom lashes without smudging.
Its formula gives a 24hr result and it is water resistant.
It contains acrylates copolymer which make it dry right after application while protects you from cold water, sweat and humidity.
It also contains bentonite, a special ingredient that works like clay covering your lashes, while its jojoba oil nurishes and protects them.
To remove the mascara from your lashes wet some cotton with warm water and just pass it through your lashes.

It is great for those wearing eye contacts, like myself, and have sensitive eyes.
It is available in Black and its price is 15 euros. In stores on September 2012.

I wasn't wearing mascara on my bottom lashes because I always got black circles, even though I wasn't born with them! But now I think I might start!

What do you think of this product?
Have you tried it? 

Stay healthy & beautiful

Razzle Dazzle!

Hello my beauties!

I am guessing you are happy, looking forward for your vacations while having a delicious coctail in the local bar.
I, myself, last week was in a bar in the centre of Athens, drinking strawberry mochito and let me tell you this. For three hours, I was feeling like I was in this exotic place, sipping my drink and listening to easy music.
But anyway, let me get back to my point. I was saying that summer is here, you have already tanned somehow, and your mood is in its highest point. 
And I ask you. 
Is there something that would make you feel even better?
Something that would make you look even happier and more glowing like you are showered by light?

Let me show you some magic tricks I have on my makeup bag!

Taaaa-Daaaaaa!

1. The Body Shop Sandstone #03 quartz hue

This small red treasure box was the first time I would come across to a highlighter. And still I used it as a eyeshadow! It looked really good on my eyes but when later I realised its true purpose I was thrilled! It has a beautiful rose champagne colour that matches any skin. I don't think you can still find the exact package but The Body Shop is full of highlighters!


2. Stila Illuminating Finishing Powder #Gold




This illuminating powder has a gorgeous soft gold colour that is shimmery not glittery. It gives a soft shimmery touch on the top of your cheekbones. This is for you who want something not too obvious.










3. Mac Cream Colour Base #Pearl





Anything I say on this black magic box it won't be enough! It is a creme highlighter that is best put with your fingers and it blends in your skin like heaven! I am sure a lot of you know exactly what I mean!










4. Gosh Bronzing Shimmer Brush # 102



I have shown this one before on the Bronzers post (see it here). 
It is an ultra shimmering bronzing powder tha makes you shine like you never imagined. It is very easy to go wrong with this product as the packaging is not too tidy and tends to let a lot of product get away and onto your face! But overall it is a great one!



5. Clinique Fresh Bloom Allover Colour #03 Almond Blossom





This is the most subtle highlighter I own. It has the smallest amount of shimmer of them all and can be used as a bronzer or a blush. There are two colours as you can see when mixed with the brush, gives a rose bronze shimmery glow. It is very good to carry it in your purse as it has many uses.  









Below I am showing you a face chart to see where is best to contour and highlight our face. I hope it will help those who are new to highlighters and want to try them out! The dark points are contouring your face to create angles and the rose ones are to create light to your face.

 I hope you find your way to a new glowing You!!!!!

Stay healthy & beautiful!

My Bronzing Powders

Hello my beauties!

I hope you are well even though the temperature is trying to kill us!

Anyway, today I will talk to you about bronzing powders, one of my most favourite items ever since I discovered it.
It is something about the healhy glow that sun gives us, which unfortunately it is the exact opposite, that makes us want to have it all year long. But even in summer when we all get some colour, we always try to intensify it! I am telling you. Bronzing Powders are sent to us by the Sun himself!

Below I will show you the ones in my make up case right now and of course my Bronzing Powders Wish List. Let's start.


1. H&M Bronzing Powder, Face and Body Bronzer


This is the bronzer I reach out first every day. It is hard to believe it as it's a low price cosmetic line from a clothes store but it really works. It is not too intense so you can build it up. It has a staying power that wil surprise you and the colour suites every skintone except from the too dark. 
I have it for almost a year, I use it every day and as you can see it is like it is brand new. It lasts forever. 
I would give it a go if I ere you.
price approx. 6 euros






2. Clinique Superbalanced Powder Bronzer in bronzed 1


The first bronzer I ever got was a Clinique one so when I was sent the new bronzer I was thrilled. 
As you can see it is compressed inside and as soon as you twist it, fresh bronzing powder is released in the amount you need for one time.
As the rest Superbalanced line products, this powder claims to mentain the skin's humidity while controling the excess oil.
The only thing you need to take notice is that you have to apply it carefully and with confident motions as it tends to leave patches otherwise.
price approx. 38.50 euros




3. Face of Australia Blush in Terra



A while ago I took part to a Beauty Swap where we were matched to a beauty blogger from all over the world and we would exchange beauty products from our country. My match was Megan from Australia.
Among the things she sent me, view post here, was this gorgeous blush in a sweet pinkish terracota colour. 
I love it. It fits perfect my fair medium skintone.
The brush picks up a lot of product so I have to be sure that I tap the brush before starting applying.






4. Gosh Bronzing Shimmer Brush in 102

I think you will all agree with me when I say that a shimmer bronzing powder is essential in our make up bag!
Of course I do not use it everyday but when I am doing a special coctail's night out I put on this powder and the whole bar is at my feet! no kidding.
My sister bought this shimmer bronzing powder from her trip in Ireland and I thank her for that. I have to be careful when applying it though as it is tooooo shimmer and the first time I tried it on I looked like a discoball. But as soon as I got the hand of it I became the Disco Queen!


And as for my Bronzing Powders Wish List?



Guerlain Terracotta Light Sheer Bronzing Powder











Chanel Soleil Tan de Chanel Moisturising Bronzing Powder









Physicians Formula Bronze Booster Glow Season to Season Bronzer









So that is all for Bronzing Powders. At least for now!

Which ones are your favourites?
Which ones do you crave?


Stay healthy & beautiful
