Lips for summer. Picks from my vanity.

Maybelline Lipstick Moisture Extreme in "Lush Papaya" No485

It is moisturizing but not long lasting unfortunately(need to re-apply after one hour of drinking and smoking :P).Beautiful colour for summer.

Chanel Rouge Hydrabase in "Shanghai Red" No78

Beautiful fuchsia-red.It tastes like chanel no5 and is long lasting, it almost stains the lips.When I wear this (I love it for modern pin-up looks) I feel like my lips are photoshoped :P :)

Mac Lipstick in "Party-Line"

This is a berry red, it's buildable and looks quite...retro.

Revlon Matte Lipstick in"Nude Attitude" No001

A beautiful peachy nude.Long lasting but a little bit drying on the lips.

Korres Mango Butter Lipstick in Orange Red No52

Moisturizing, excellent colour payoff.Slightly Orange but wearable.Too creamy...so much that it has melted on me.No photos of this for the time being (sth happened to my cam-cannot focus).

April 2011 Favourites

1.Mac's powder blush in "Fleurpower"

A pink-peach blush, highly pigmented, you need a light hand with this.I use it very often and love its intensity.

2.Chanel Levres Scintillantes no 25

A peachy-pink gloss with gold shimmer.It is long lasting, non sticky and one of the few lipglosses I can tolerate on my lips.Its colour is great now that summer is on its way and It's flattering for every complexion.

3.H&M Eyeshadow palette in "Biscotti Dreams"

It's cheap(6euros) and is very good.I use it almost everyday (great for smokey eyes and neutral looks) and I'm completely satisfied.Pigmented, almost creamy, shimmery but not overpowering shimmer...I intend to buy more h&m eyeshadows, they're pretty good for the price!

4.Lancome Poudre Majeure Excellence in 01 Translucide

It is great for setting my make up, it gives me a mat face which lasts.

5.Artdeco Eyeshadow Base

It's almost as good as too faced shadow insurance, it's cheaper (7 Euros) and is 5ml (0.16FL.OZ.), a good amount of product.It smells like shampoo :)


Your favourites for this month? :)

Simon says...these are the new trends.

Spring  2010.

Οι νέες τάσεις στο μακιγιάζ είναι πια για όλες τις γυναίκες, οι εποχές που το ακραίο "θεατρικό" μακιγιάζ δέσποζε στις πασαρέλες έχουν παρέλθει και το 2010 επιβάλλει μόνο chic ή dramatic make up ακολουθώντας πιστά τον κανόνα των ισορροπιών.

Gucci





Φυσικό μακιγιάζ με σκιές σε ζεστό ανοιχτό καφέ χρώμα , καφέ eye liner και mascara τονίζουν το περίγραμμα των ματιών, ενώ η επιδερμίδα είναι ημι-ματ,ανοιχτόχρωμη και φωτεινή με διακριτικές λάμψεις.Τα ζυγωματικά τονίζονται ελαφρά με ροζ ρουζ και τα χείλη είναι σε τόνους φυσικούς ή nude pink. I love.

Chanel

Wearable nudes. Smokey eyes σε καφέ και χάλκινες αποχρώσεις, έντονο ή μια υποψία bronzer στα ζυγωματικά που σβήνει με ροδακινί ή ροζ ρουζ στα μήλα, το ανοιξιάτικο μακιγιάζ της chanel παρουσιάζεται σαν προπομπός του καλοκαιρινού μακιγιάζ.Terracota here I come :-P

Dior

Ο οίκος Dior προβάλλει 40's make up, με έντονα ημι-ματ κόκκινα χείλη και μάτια σε διάφορα  παστέλ χρώματα .. λιλά,ροδακινί,λαχανί,σιελ, καφέ. J'adore αν και λίγο παρακινδυνευμένο.
