Something more neutral

Yellow blush

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I wanted to play with my new yellow blush, and I have to say that I quite like the way it looks. Yellow blush is not as scary as you might think.

Feels like summer

Here’s what I wore Thursday April 23. It was a really warm day and it almost felt like summer, so I was barefoot (I mean, I wasn’t wearing socks) for the first time this year. The summery weather didn’t last long though, but I really hope that I would come back very soon.

In need of colour

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. Since most of the outfit was black and white, I felt like I needed some colourful make-up, so I went with blue and pink to match the pops of colour on my T-shirt.

Mixed make-up haul

DSC_0386

I recently purchased a few different products in a sale (Danish department store), and I thought I would share them with you in this little haul. I purchased three products from MAC; the new Fix+ Magic Radiance, the Studio Chromagraphic pencil in NC15/NW20, and an eyeshadow in the shade L.E.S. Artiste. I’ve only used the new Fix+ once or twice so far, but I’m excited to use it more and see if it lives up to its claims of ultra-hydration and a boost of radiance. I purchased the Studio Chromagraphic pencil in the search for an alternative to my favourite nude eyeliner from Sephora which has sadly been discontinued. I haven’t tried out this pencil yet though. And adding the eyeshadow to my custom 15 pan eyeshadow palette from MAC completed my palette, which is very satisfying. Besides the three MAC products, I also bought the NYX Sweet Cheeks matte creamy powder blush in the shade Silence is Golden, which, as you can see, is a yellow blush. I thought it would be fun to experiment with yellow blush. And lastly, I decided to try one of the Sephora #lipstories lipsticks; this one is from the Barbie collaboration and it’s in the shade 26 Kick It!
