Empties #20 pt 2

Long time no see, my lovely readers!
Even though it's been almost three months since my last post I am so glad to see that you still come and check if I'm still around :) Thank you from the bottom of my heart for that :)

Here's the promised part two of my last year's empties and the first one of 2016 will come soon :)

Kiehl's Actively Correcting & Beautifying BB Cream in Light - I have been loving this bb cream from the first moment I tried it from a sample. This is my second empty tube of this product which means that I really do love and recommend it. It will even out your skin tone and make it smooth. It can also be used instead of foundation if your skin is good in general. The big bonus is the high SPF which makes it my number one product in the summertime :) Will definitely get a new tube next summer.
Garnier Miracle Skin Cream sample - I got this sample with a magazine and I think it is perfect to lightly even out the skin tone for those whose skin is clear. If you have a good skin and just want to make it look less dull, this is the product for you :)
Maybelline FitMe Concealer in shade #10 - this concealer has yellow undertone which means that I cannot use it under my eyes. It does work really nice on blemishes but to be honest I only use concealer under my eyes to cover up dark circles and this shade did no good for that. I love this concealer in shade #15 which has pink undertone and always make sure to have it in my collection.
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in shade #Light 2 Vanilla - this concealer is my dream come true! It covered up my dark under eye area, didn't crease nor oxidise. I did notice that in the end it wasn't as creamy as it used to be, so this product really does expire after the deadline. So I suggest to keep an eye on the best before date :) If they'd sell it in my country, I would repurchase it over and over again :)
L'Oréal Lumi Magique illuminating pen - I would say that it is a nice cheaper alternative for YSL Touche Eclat if you pick the right shade. Mine was a bit too dark so I could only use it during summer. I still liked it a lot and would repurchase the lightest shade to use as an under eye highlighter :)
Eveline Big Volume Explosion mascara - they sell it here in local supermarkets and this brand is very cheap. The mascara was okay for everyday use but the wand was ridiculously huge so solely for that reason I wouldn't buy it again. Also didn't notice it making my lashes explode with volume.
Avon Colortrend Boost It waterproof mascara - I bought it to take with me on my vacation to Spain last July. It was somewhat waterproof - it didn't melt down my face in 40C heat but I wouldn't go swimming wearing it. Also it gave my lashes colour and a bit of definition but no volume nor length.
Real Techniques stippling brush - I think this was my first ever RT brush I got at least five years ago. Last time I washed it, all the bristles came out at once and even though I pushed them back, after it was dry the bristles started to shed heavily. This had never happened before and RT brushes rarely ever shed so I guess I just overused this brush :D I love to use this brush especially for my cream blush and foundation and I already have two of these brushes back in my collection.
Sierra Bees organic cocoa butter lip balm - this lip balm was very nice and moisturising, smelled lovely and made my lips soft. Also, it's constantly very affordable on iHerb. I plan on buying the variety pack next time I make an order. (p.s. If you haven't ordered from iHerb.com before you can save up to $10 on your first order using my discount code LWH786)


I also managed to finish another perfume which I am very sorry about.
DKNY Be Delicious is one of my favourites because it's just so fresh. I love it especially during spring and summer. I will definitely repurchase it in the future if it's still on the market. Read more on the notes HERE.
Even though Kiehl's is best known for their skincare I suggest you take a sniff on their perfumes too. This Vetiver & Black Tea eau de toilette sample made me want to get the full size. Notes are pretty simple - Haitian vetiver, Ceylon black tea, pepper and woods which makes the blend of it very pleasant for my nose :)

Thank you for staying until the very end :)
I promise to get back on track and post more frequently again from now on :)


Kuigi viimasest postitusest on juba ligi kolm kuud möödas, on mul hea meel näha, et külastate jätkuvalt mu blogi. Suur aitäh selle eest! :)

Siin siis lubatud teine osa eelmise aasta tühjadest potsikutest ning õige pea lisandub esimene 2016 empties postitus :)

Kiehl's Actively Correcting and beautifying BB cream toonis Light - see on juba teine tühjaks saanud tuub ning minu vaieldamatu lemmik just suvel, sisaldades SPF 50. See ühtlustab nahatooni ja silub seda ning hea näonahaga inimesed saavad seda BB kreemi edukalt kasutada ka jumestuskreemi asemel. Saadaval Tallinna Kaubamaja Kiehls'i letis, kuhu soovitan teinekord niisamagi sisse põigata - Kiehl'si neiud on lahked tegema tasuta nahatesti ning andma kaasa ka sämpleid sundimata midagi kohe ostma :) Konkreetne bb kreem maksab tsipake alla 30€.
Garnier Miracle Skin Cream tester - sobib hea näonahaga inimestele nahatooni ühtlustamiseks muutes naha elavamaks :)
Maybelline FitMe peitekreem toonis #10 - need peitekreemid on maailmakuulsad ning põhjusega palju kiidetud. Kuigi see kollaka alatooniga nr 10 mulle ei sobinud, siis roosa alatooniga nr 15 on mul ALATI meigiarsenalis, et oma tumedaid silmaaluseid maskeerida :)
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer peitekreem toonis Light 2 Vanilla - minu absoluutne lemmik. See on kreemjas, ülihea katvusega, ei kogune kortsukestesse ning kui see puudriga kinnitada, püsib peal terve päeva. Kui see oleks Eestis poest kergesti kättesaadav, jääks see igaveseks minu meigikotti. Selle peitekreemi puhul tuleb aga kindlasti jälgida säilivusaega, sest lõpupoole muutub konsistents veidi kuivemaks ning selle kasutamine pole siis enam nii mugav kui äsja tuubi avades :)
L'Oréal Lumi Magique valgustpeegeldav peitekreem - see on minu arvates YSL Touche Eclat odavam alternatiiv ning valides õige tooni toimib nii korrektori kui valgustpeegeldava jumestuspulgana. Minul oli veidi liiga tume toon, mistõttu sain seda kasutada vaid suvel kuid kõige heledam roosaka alatooniga pulk toimiks mu sinistel silmaalustel vägagi hästi :)
Eveline Big Volume Explosion ripsmetušš - ostsin selle ripsmetušši mingist toidupoest väga soodsa hinna tõttu. See on tavaline igapäevane tušš, mis ei anna erilist pikkust ega lopsakust kuid selle naeruväärselt hiiglaslik harjas on see, mis mind edaspidi sellest ripsmetušist kaarega mööda käima sunnib :)
Avon Colortrend Boosti It veekindel ripsmetušš - ostsin selle läinud suvel puhkusele minnes ning kuigi seegi ei andnud erilist lopsakust ja pikkust, ei voolanud see ripsmetelt mööda nägu alla ka 40-kraadises kuumuses. Päris vette sukelduda ma sellega siiski ei soovita.
Real Techniques stippling pintsel - see oli esimene RT pintsel, mille ma aastaid tagasi ostsin. Viimase pesu ajal tulid kõik pintslikarvad korraga pesast lahti ning kuigi ma need tagasi surusin, hakkas pintsel kuivanult ikkagi karvu ajama. Kuna tavaliselt seda RT pintslitega kunagi ei juhtu, arvan, et see konkreetne isend oli lihtsalt aastatega oma aja ära elanud. Mul on juba kaks samasugust soetatud ning kasutan seda peamiselt kreemja põsepuna või jumestuskreemi pealekandmiseks :)
Sierra Bees organic cocoa butter huulepalsam - ülimõnus ja hästi lõhnav soodne huulepalsam, mis niisutas ja muutis huuled pehmeks. iHerb'is on neile väga tihti soodukad ning oma järgmisele tellimusele lisan kindlasti ka nende variety packi'i :) (p.s. Kui sa pole varem iHerb.com tellinud, siis kasutades minu sooduskoodi LWH786 void saada kuni 10$ soodustust).

Seekord suutsin tühjaks teha ka ühe oma lemmikutest parfüümidest - DKNY Be Delicious. See on nii värske ja mõnus, et mul on suur kiusatus minna ja see kohe endale uuesti osta, sest see on just kevad-suvisel hooajal üks mu esimesi valikuid. Lõhnanootide kohta saad lähemalt lugeda SIIT. Seda parfüümi saab soetada näiteks SIIT .
Kuigi Kiehl's on enamasti tuntud oma suurepäraste nahahooldustoodete poolest, soovitan kindlasti lähemalt tutvuda ka nende parfüümidega. Vetiver & Black tea tualettvesi on järjekordne avastus, mille sooviksin pärast testeri proovimist kindlasti enda parfüümikollektsiooni lisada. 30ml suurus maksab Tallinna Kaubamaja Kiehl'sis ligi 30€.

Aitäh, et lõpuni vastu pidasid ning järgmiste kohtumisteni :)

What I need to get out the door / Morning makeup routine

One morning I started to wonder how many products I actually use to get out the door on a usual weekday. I started counting the products and steps and wow! There's actually 14 products on a busy weekday that I use to get out the door in 15 minutes :)
And that's only makeup :D

So, if you're interested in what I pack on my face, keep on reading :)

1. First off, I cleanse my face with Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water (review here) to remove all that's on my face. Then I apply Vichy Idealia Eye Contour Idealiser. I love this eye cream because it moisturises well, absorbs fast and doesn't interfere with my makeup. As a face moisturiser I use Hydraluron that also absorbs within seconds so that I can quickly move on to applying my makeup.

2. Before applying any of my makeup, I have recently been reaching for Oriflame Conceal Kit and I use the peachy concealer lightly in the darkest areas under my eyes. Then I apply Lumene Skin Perfector Matt Makeup foundation. To cover and highlight my under-eye area I use Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer that has fast become my holy grail product. It has full coverage and stays on for ages without creasing almost at all. To set my under-eyes and t-zone, I use Nars Light Reflecting Setting Powder in Translucent Crystal. This power is AMAZING!!!! It is so finely mild that you can't see it at all. It keeps my makeup and especially concealer from creasing and it also stays on for ages making my skin silky smooth. As an eyeshadow primer I use my beloved Avon Eye Shadow Primer that keeps my eyeshadow in place for ages and applying it doesn't tug on my eyelids.

3. Then I move on to blush and highlighter. I have been obsessed with Sleek Blush by 3 in shade Pink Lemonade and especially the cream blusher in the middle. The lasting power of it is also amazing. For highlighting I use Lancome Blush Subtil in shade 004 Highlighting Beige. It gives my face such a nice glow without being glittery or looking greasy.

4. For my brows I use a very affordable Catrice Eye Brow Stylist in shade 040 Don't Let Me Brow'n. It's the perfect cool-toned taupe brown pencil that matches my natural hair colour. Plus it has a brush on the other end. I don't think I will replace this one any time soon :)
I've been reaching most for my e.l.f. Prism Eyshadow palette in Naked or Bobbi Brown Rich Chocolate Eye Palette recently. The BB palette is on the right side on the photo and I use the third shade from the top to blend out any eyeshadow I wear.
For mascara I use Max Factor Masterpiece Transform at the moment.

I didn't include any lipsticks in this post because my everyday makeup is very neutral so I usually use 2-3 different lipsticks during the day :)

Is it too much compared to the amount of products you use every morning? Or maybe too little?
Let me know in the comments below :)

Hakkasin ühel hommikul kokku lugema mitut toodet ma kasutan tavalisel tööpäeval selleks, et uksest välja minna.
Kokku sai 14 toodet ja kõigi nende pealekandmiseks kulub mul umbes 15 minutit.

1. Kõigepealt kasutan Garnier mitselaarvett, millega eemaldan öö jooksul näole kogunenu. Seejärel kannan silmade alla Vichy Idealia Eye Contour Idealizer silmakreemi. See imendub väga kiirelt ja sobib ülihästi meigi alla. Seejärel kasutan naha niisutamiseks Hydraluron geeli, mis samuti imendub sekunditega, nii et saa pea kohe liikuda jumestuskreemini.

2. Viimasel ajal olen enne muu meigipõhjaga alustamist hakanud kasutama Oriflame Conceal Kit'ist virsikukarva tooni, et katta kõige tumedamad osad silmade all ja ümbruses (selgelt annab stressirohke tööperiood tunda). Seejärel kannan näole Lumene Skin Perfector Matt Makeup jumestuskreemi. Järgmisena võtan ette Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer peitekreemi, mille abil katan ja helendan silmaaluseid ja muid näo piirkondi. See peitekreem sai väga kiirelt minu absoluutseks lemmikuks, sest see katab ülihästi, ei kogune kortsudesse ja püsib väga pikka aega.
Et kogu see krempel kinnitada, kasutan Nars Light Reflecting Setting Powder puudrit toonis Translucent Crystal. See on nii peene koostisega, et seda pole näol näha ning nahk on katsudes siidine ja pehme.
Lauvärvi aluskreemina kasutan oma armastatud Avon Eye Shadow Primer'it, mis hoiab lauvärvi paigal hiliste õhtutundideni ja seda peale kandes ei pea ma oma laugusid tirima.

3. Põsepunana kasutan Sleek Blush by 3 palett toonis Pink Lemonade ja enamasti keskmist kreemjast ruuži. Seegi püsib peal terve päeva. Särapuudrina kasutan Lancome Blush Subtil toonis 004 Highlighting Beige, mis annab nahale kauni kuma ega ole seejuures sädelev.

4. Silmameigis olen viimasel ajal haaranud kõige tihedamini e.l.f. Prism Eyeshadow või Bobbi Brown Rich Chocolate Eye Palette lauvärvipalettide järele. BB paletist (pildil paremal) ülevalt kolmandat tooni kasutan alati ükskõik, millise lauvärvi hajutamiseks.
Kulmud korrigeerin Catrice Eye Brow Stylist kulmupliiatsi abiga toonis 040 Don't Let Me Brow'n. Selle külm pruun toon sobib ideaalselt minu loomuliku juuksetooniga.
Ripsetušina kasutan Max Factor Masterpiece Transform'i.

Huulepulki ma pildile ei lisanud, kuna mu igapäevane meik on enamasti neutraalne ning päeva jooksul kasutan 2-3 erinevat huuletoodet/tooni.

Kas seda on palju või vähe võrreldes sellega, mida sina igapäevaselt kasutad?

Favourites of 2014

Long time no see, my dear readers!
I hope you are all doing well :)
Though I'm a little late with my overview of favourite products of 2014 I hope you don't mind finding it out now :)

Let's start with makeup and especially eyes :)

Bobbi Brown Rich Chocolate Eye Palette - perfect for those who prefer matte eyeshadows because there's 5 matte shades out of 7. These shadows are great quality and I could easily go for a long time using just this one palette :)

Dior 5 Couleurs Eyeshadow Palette #796 Cuir Cannage - four gorgeous shimmery shades with a neutral matte brown shade for blending. Perfect both for day and night :) And of course - the quality is also magnificent :)

e.l.f. Studio Prism Eyeshadow Palette in Naked - if you love shimmery eyeshadows, this $10 palette is just for you. I'm amazed by the quality of these shadows and I often reach for it when I need to quickly slap something on :)

Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Cream Shadow in #25 Slate - this cream shadow is just the best! Either as a base or on it's own, it works perfect both ways. Love it!!

e.l.f. Cosmetics Liquid Eyeliner in shade Coffee - I love to fill in the gaps between my lashes to make them look fuller and this dark brown looks like black but less harsh. Plus it costs just $1!!!!!

MaxFactor Masterpiece MAX Mascara - this one might be even better than my favourites from L'Oreal. I especially loved the fact that I didn't have to curl my lashes because this mascara did it for me. Great, great mascara!

Let's move on to face makeup :)

Catrice Eye Brow Stylist in #40 Don't Let Me Brow'n - this is a perfect colour match for my eyebrows and it doesn't have any red in it. It stays on whole day and has brush with it which makes it fast a very convenient. Plus it's super affordable :)

Chanel Perfection Lumiere Long-Wear Flawless Fluid Makeup - I have a full review on it here. It's truly long-wearing and also leaves my skin matte for a very long time. I use it on days I need to look flawless for a long time. Love it!

Kiehl's Actively Correcting & Beautyfying BB Cream - you can find my review here. I use it on days when I'm in a hurry and need to even out my skin in just seconds. Great product!

Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer in Light2 Vanilla - this is the BEST concealer I've ever tried. I just can't believe how well it covers my dark circles! Also it's a great highlighter that blends seamlessly!

L'Oreal True Match Minerals Foundation - my review here. I love that the application is fast and easy and the coverage is very good. I especially loved it during summer :)

Sleek Blush by 3 in Pink Lemonade - I got this blush palette in July last year and have been using the middle cream blush every day since. I'm addicted!


Skincare is next :)

Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque - by far the best and easiest face mask I've tried last year. When my tube gets empty, I'll run out and get a new one :) My review is here.

JOIK Silky Facial Serum with Cranberry Seed Oil - whenever I apply this serum, my skin just purrs with delight :) Though it's an oil, it absorbs quickly and leaves my skin nourished and soft :) Review here.

Lirene Last Minute Body BB - they call it body makeup :) I never fry myself in the sun so I go around looking pale and slightly bluish even during summer. In order not to scare people, I slap this tinted moisturiser on my body and it gives my skin a healthy slightly tanned look. Comes in two shades :)


Last but not least I have three favourite online shops where I've left quite a lot of money last year :)
First it's iHerb where I get my e.l.f., Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque and plenty of other natural products. The packages arrive in two weeks and I haven't yet had any problems with my purchases.
If you haven't ordered from iHerb before then using my code LWH786 you can save up to $10 on your first order.

Next is DOROTHY PERKINS where I've found a lot of affordable shoes, boots and clothes. They have both Tall and Petite sections which is always a bonus. Plus their sales are mind-blowing :)

Levelzone is a local beauty boutique that has a lot of great deals and a large variety of beauty and hair-care products. Delivery is overnight and the prices are better than in regular stores :)

Thank you for reading :)

******

Väikese hilinemisega panin nüüd ritta oma eelmise aasta lemmikud.

Alustame silmadest :)
Kõigepealt kolm läuvärvipaletti, millest igaüks suudab mu vajadused täielikult rahuldada pikaks ajaks. Mattide lauvärvide austajale meeldib kindlasti Bobbi Brown Rich Chocolate Eye Palette lauvärvipalett, kus seitsmest toonist on matid lausa 5. Kasutan vasakult kolmandat tooni igapäevaselt koopajoonel ja hajutamiseks. Diori 5 Couleurs palett toonis 796 Cuir Cannage sisaldab nelja kaunilt kumavat sädelevat tooni ning üht matti pruuni hajutamiseks. Selle paleti võtan endaga kaasa lühematele sõitudele, sest sellega saavutab kerge vaevaga nii tagasihoidliku päeva- kui ka glamuurse õhtumeigi. Kvaliteet on mõistagi väga hea.
Soodsamatest palettidest on minu vaieldamatu lemmik e.l.f. Studio Prism palett toonis Naked, milles on kaunilt sädelevad pruunikad toonid, mida on lihtne peale kanda ning hajutada.
Kreemjatest lauvärvidest tegi võidukäigu Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Cream Shadow toonis 25 Slate. Töötab suurepäraselt nii lauvärvi kui aluskreemina. Kasutan seda päevil, mil on kiire või olen laisk ja on vaja kiirelt näkku veidi elu tekitada :)
e.l.f. Liquid Eyeliner silmalainer toonis Coffee on tumepruun või peaaegu musta värvi lainer, mille ülipeen pintsel aitab suurepäraselt ripsmete vahele pääseda, et tekitada lopsakamate ripsmete efekti. Lisaks maksab kõigest dollar!
Ripsmetuššidest meelis eelmisel aastal enim MaxFactor Masterpiece MAX, mida kasutades ei vajanud ma koolutajat. Sellest võib saada suur ja tugev konkurent minu lemmikutele L'Orealilt :)

Catrice Eye Brow Stylist kulmupliiats toonis 40 Don't Let Me Brow'n on parim kulmutoode läbi aegade. Selles pole kübetki punast pigmenti, pliiatsi otsas olev hari teeb selle kasutamise kiireks ja mugavaks. Lisaks on hind väga soodne :)
Chanel Perfection Lumiere Long-Wear Flawless Fluid Makeup jumestuskreemist kirjutasin pikemalt siin. Kauakestev, matt ja veatu tulemus püsib pikki tunde.
Kiehl's Actively Correcting & Beautifying BB Cream ühtlustab kiirelt nahatooni ning kasutan seda neil päevil kui on vaja ülikiirelt hea välja näha :) Arvustuse leiad siit.
Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer peitekreem toonis Light2 Vanilla on parim peitekreem minu lilladele silmaalustele. See on tihke ja kreemjas, katab suurepäraselt, püsib kaua ning seda on lihtne hajutada. Lihtsalt suurepärane!
L'Oreal True Match Minerals mineraalne meigipõhi oli minu parim sõber just suvisel ajal. Kire ja lihtne pealekandmine ning suurepärane katvus ning püsivus teevad sellest kindla lemmiku. Arvustus siin.
Sleek Blush By 3 põsepunapaletist toonis Pink Lemonade olen keskmist kreemjat põsepuna kasutanud iga päev alates hetkest kui selle paleti omanikuks sain. Püsib kaua, toon on kaunis nii suvel kui talvel ja pealekandmine on lihtne nii sõrmede kui pintsliga :)

Nahahooldusest jäid eelmisel aastal silma Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque, mis on üks paremaid maske, mida kasutanud olen. Lisaks ka fakt, et mask on tuubis, teeb selle kasutamise väga mugavaks. Arvustus siin.
JOIK Siidine näoseerum jõhvikaseemne õliga on hiljutine avastus ning sai kiirelt asendamatuks minu õhtuses iluhoolduses. Nahk on seda kasutades pehme ja prink ning kuigi tegemis on õliga, imendub see sekunditega :) Arvustuse leiad siit.
Kehatoodetest meeldis enim Lirene Last Minute Body BB kreem, mis on toonitud kreem kehale. Kasutasin seda suvel oma kehale jume andmiseks. Kaunima tooniga naha saavutasin vaid minutitega. Saadaval kahes toonis.

Minu lemmikud veebipoed, kuhu eelmisel aastal palju raha jätsin olid:
iHerb, kust tellin e.l.f. ja teisi looduslikumaid tooteid väga hea hinnaga;
Dorothy Perkins, kust leiab hea hinnaga riideid ja jalatseid ning nende soodukad on täiesti fantastilised ja Levelzone, kus on samuti palju hea hinnaga ilukaupa ning ka sooduskampaaniad on vägagi ahvatlevad :)

Wishlist: Makeup books

I have been obsessed with makeup since early teens and since I was/am really pale in my face, I even started using a mauve eyeshadow as a blush on my face when I was about 15 :)
My first makeup book was a gift from a friend more than 10 years ago - it was Face Forward by Kevyn Aucoin. This book is amazing and so inspirational, I just love it and find new and exciting stuff each time I open it! It would be a great gift for every makeup lover out there :)
This book made me want to learn and perfect my makeup application and I have been dreaming about becoming a makeup artist since :)

I already have several makeup books and I love reading or just flipping through them time and again.
In my collection there are two books from Jemma Kidd - Make-Up Masterclass and Make-Up Secrets . I also have a book by Scott Barnes who is the makeup artist that created the famous "Jennifer Lopez glow" called About Face. And I also have the Express Makeup by Rae Morris.

But if you think that's enough for me, you are so very wrong :D
I still have a lot of books in my wish list that I would be very happy to own :)

1. Classic Beauty: The History of Makeup by Gabriela Hernandez - that would be such an amazing book to see the evolution of cosmetics from ancient times through today. I've been keeping an eye on this book for over a year but it is kind of pricey :)
2. Makeup Your Mind by Francois Nars - because it's written by HIMself
3. Everything Eyes by Bobbi Brown - I'm all about the eyes. Eyeshadow is my most favourite makeup product and I have hundreds of them. I'm obsessed with eyes :)
4. Quick Looks by Rae Morris - all of us are constantly in a hurry so a few tips on how to look good fast is always welcome :)
5. Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual by Bobbi Brown - seems that every makeup addict out there has this book and so should I :)


Ma olen meigist ja kosmeetikast olnud huvitatud juba varajastest teismelise aastatest.
Eriti suur meigihullus ning unistus meigikunstnikuks saada algas hetkest kui sõbranna enam kui kümme aastat tagasi tõi USAst mulle legendaarse MUA Kevyn Aucoin'i kirjutatud raamatu Face Forward.

Mul on erinevaid meigiraamatuid riiulis veel, sealhulgas ka kodumaine Jumestusjutud, kus on autoritelt sisse kirjutatud ka armas pühendus :)
Minu riiulist leiab veel Jemma Kidd'i Make-up Masterclass ja Make-up Secrets. Austraalia ühelt kuulsaimalt meigikunstnikult Rae Morris'ilt on minu riiulis Express Makeup. Scott Barnes on kuulsa Jennifer Lopezi "kuma" looja ning tema sulest ilmunud About Face omab ka auväärset kohta minu kogus.

Kui te aga arvate, et sellest mulle piisab, siis oi! te eksite :D

Minu soovinimekirjas on veel suur hulk raamatuid, mida tahaksin omada:

1. Classic Beauty: The History of Makeup - kui palju huvitavaid fakte ja avastamisrõõmu see raamat mulle pakuks. Kaotaksin seda lugedes kindlasti aja- ja ruumitaju :)
2. Makeup Your Mind - sell raamatu author on TEMA use - Fracois Nars.
3. Everything Eyes - raamatu on kirjutanud kuulus meigikunstnik Bobbi Brown. Oma meigis panen kõige suuremat rõhku just silmadele ning lauvärvid on minu kõige lemmikum ilutoode üldse. Seega, see raamat ongi mõeldud täpselt mulle :D
4. Quick Looks - autoriks jällegi Rae Morris. Raamat keskendus nippidele, kuidas kiiresti veatu tulemus saavutada ja seda on meil kõigil vaja, eksju :)
5. Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual võiks igal endast lugupidaval meigihullul olemas olla ja nii ka minul :)

P.S. Postituse inglisekeelses osas viivad lingid Book Depository raamatupoodi, kus hinnad on mõnevõrra soodsamad ja postikulu üle maailma tasuta ;)

Haul: pt #3 Nars & Dior

I saved the best for last!!!
This is my Christmas gift from my lovely sister :)
I've never tried Dior eyeshadows before and I was jumping up and down and squealing from excitement when I opened my package :)

I love every item here because the quality is just heavenly! And high-end brands just know how to package their products so that it looks extremely festive and expensive :)

Dior 5 Couleurs Eyeshadow palette in shade #796 Cuir Cannage - this palette contains four shimmery  brown shades and one matte medium brown shade for blending. These shadows are so pigmented and creamy, blend well and even with a light hand they pack on a lot of colour. You can see great swatches here and a close-up here. Needless to say, I love this palette and since it has colours I use in my eye makeup the most, it's just perfect!!!! :)

Nars Light Reflecting Setting Powder in #1411 Translucent - this pressed powder comes in a pouch with a sponge. It is so fine you almost can't see it. It really is translucent and leaves my skin feeling smooth an soft. Works very well for setting my under-eye concealer. Love it and use it every single day :)

Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer in shade Light2 Vanilla - this stuff stays put for the whole day!!!! It brightens and hides my dark blue under-eyes like nothing else I've tried in my life. It doesn't crease but also doesn't hide all of my tiny wrinkles. But you can't really beat your age, can you? I love it and it has become absolutely irreplaceable together with the Nars setting powder :)

I also got the Maybelline FITme Concealer in shade #15 which I can't get here. Now I'm totally backed up for a looooong time :)


Parima ostude postituse jätsin muidugi viimaseks :)
Tegelikult on kõik see, mis pildil, jõulukingitus minu armsalt õelt :) Äkki ma siis olen ikka sel aastal hea laps olnud? :)

Dior 5 Couleurs Eyeshadow lauvärvipalett toonis #796 Cuir Cannage  - 4 lummavat sädelevat ja üks matt pruun toon teevad sellest paletist perfektsuse. Just pruunikaid toone kasutan oma silmameigis enim, sest beežid-kuldsed-pruunid-punakad toonid muudavad mu muidu hallid silmad siniseks :) Lauvärvid on imeilusad ja väga pigmenteeritud. Ka kerge käega jääb laule piisav kogus värvi. Püsivad hästi ja juba ainuüksi see pakend tekitab niivõrd luksusliku tunde, lauvärvidest endast rääkimata :)

Nars Light Reflecting Setting Powder toonis #1411 Translucent - see pressitud läbipaistev puuder on nii peene koostisega, et seda pole nahal näha. Eriti mõnus on seda puudrit kasutada peitekreemi kinnitamiseks silmade all. Puuder on pakitud kotikesse, milles eraldi sahtlis on ka puudrisvamm. Nahk on seda puudrit peale kandes sametine ja pehme :)

Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer toonis Light2 Vanilla - see peitekreem on nii kauapüsiv, et paneb lausa imestama! Ühtlasi katab see mu sinised silmaalused tõesti veatult. See küll ei kaota mu peeneid kortse aga ma annan selle talle andeks, sest peeneid kortse näeb vaid siis kui mu näole väga lähedal olla, seevastu tumedate silmaaluste omamises ei saa mind nüüd enam keegi "süüdistada" :D Koos ülalmainitud puudriga on sellest saanud minu igapäevane truu kaaslane.

Lisaks oli pakis ka Maybelline FITme peitekreem toonis 15, mida mina pole Eesti kaubandusvõrgust leidnud. Olen nüüd kohe pikemaks ajaks varustatud :)
