May's loves :)

Helloooo make up sporties,
I hope everyone's doing well.
The temperature rises, heat is destroying every attempt for decent full make up and me trying to find ways to have my make up without melting in 3 hours....

  • Murad's oil control mattifier helps a lot, I cannot live without it anymore!
  • Estee Lauder's Sumptuous Lifting Mascara is an ok mascara that I use everyday so as to give the impression that my lashes exist :P
  • Mac's lipstick "up the amp" is a beautiful purplish colour that I love, trendy but not so much "out there", I can wear it at work too!
  • Korres eye shadow in 42S Green White is a summery light blue-green eye shadow, I wear it every day and love it :)
  • Mac's eye shadow in satin taupe and trax : My make up looks professional with these two ;D
Those were my May favourites, I hope I gave you some ideas so as to try new products ;)
I am looking forward to reading your favourites :)

XOXO

My little Mac haul

On Friday I decided to go shopping as I heard that Hondos (cosmetics store) had 25% off. So I happily visited the mac counter where I bought the prettiest lipsticks eveeeeer!
 Girl about town

Up the amp

I had never imagined that I could pull off such intense beautiful colours(girl about town was in my wish list for a long time though)!I tried them on me as I was curious and I'm so glad I did!
I also bought a blush which suits the lipsticks ... The truth is..dollymix is a blush I would never choose to buy.The reason: its name (silly I knowww) Dolly reminds me of a cow and Mix of an old fashioned coctail.Besides that I hated that every girl on youtube had that blush...(sometimes I tend to go against the flow, it's an inner physical reaction).So the make up artist showed me 3 colours and I picked that without knowing that it is dollymix.Now I understand why this is such a hit, it's so prettyyyyyyyy!

Last but not least I bought this wonderful crease brush only for about 3 euros (bargain right?) by a company named Toyoko.

Now...I'll start niggling. Sometimes I don't know what I am thinking and destroy every good moment I have.I bought some hair dye as lately I've been seeing much white hair which I hate.I didn't buy a basic colour (just brown) but I chose a complicated colour (chocolate blond) just to change a little bit. After I had finished my hair I realised that my lipsticks may not suit my new hair.All the joy of my purchases had diminished as up the amp didn't look as good as with my former hair and girl about town didn't make the beautiful contrast it did in the store. Change of hair = change of makeup.
Anyways nothing is going to stop me from wearing my new lipsticks (I will start fake tanning If I have to :P) and next week I am going to the hairdresser's for a new colour.

That's all from me for now...
