Indescribable lip colour

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I love this dark reddish brown mauve (indescribable) lip colour. I think it looks really nice with the black outfit and the braided hair style.

Good Luck Trolls

Posted on August 12, 2016 by Mucha-Lucha

You might have noticed by now that I’m obsessed with limited edition MAC products. I’m especially obsessed with limited edition lipsticks and I consider them collectables, but as you might also have noticed I actually use them and don’t just keep them on display. When I found out about the Good Luck Trolls collection I was really excited, because the packaging looked so colourful and pretty, and I’m so glad I managed to get my hands on these products. Initially I only ordered one lipstick and a beauty powder, but then I swatched the other lipstick colours in store yesterday and bought one more.

The lipstick I ordered online was this fun blue one. It’s called Midnight Troll and has a matte finish. It’s similar to Matte Royal from MAC’s permanent lipstick line, but Matte Royal is a bit darker and has a slight purple undertone. Midnight Troll is just straight up blue. And how cute is the name! All the names in this collection are spot on.

The lipstick I couldn’t resist at the physical store yesterday was this beautiful shimmery hot pink. It’s called Dance Off, Pants Off (how amazing is that name) and it has a frost finish. This is my first frost finish lipstick from MAC, and I can’t wait to try it on. It’s funny how frosty and metallic lipsticks have become popular again.

The product I knew I wanted as soon as I saw it was this gorgeous beauty powder. It’s called Glow Rida (another amazing name) and is a light shimmery beige powder. I wore it yesterday as my highlighter, and it was so beautiful. It’s quite a subtle highlighter, but you can definitely build it up which was what I did, and it just looks so gorgeous on the skin. This has to be my favourite packaging from the collection; that shimmery bright pink packaging is every make-up lovers dream.

Turquoise frame

Soft-spoken

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I love the blue eyes with the brown lip. That lip colour is actually really pretty; I should wear it again soon.

5 favourites – July

Posted on July 31, 2016 by Mucha-Lucha

July has come to an end, and it’s been really nice having some time off. I spent the past four weeks with my family, and now I’m back home (and by home I mean my home). It’s been really nice being on summer holiday (though I’m studying at the moment because I have an exam in a few days) and my holiday is not over yet (thank god). Btw, I created an instagram account today which is mainly going to be an extension of the blog. I’m @muchaluchas and there’s a link in my blogroll in the sidebar. But enough about that for now; here’s some of my favourite things from the month of July.

MAC lipstick in Faux: I haven’t worn make-up that often this past month, because I’ve just been staying at my parents summer house, but most of the times I did wear make-up I wore this lipstick. It just the perfect neutral, ‘my lips but better’ shade for me.

Morphe M510 brush: This is the best brush for highlighter I’ve tried so far. It’s fluffy and not too big, so it gives you a very precise application while blending out the product at the same time.

Vintage Style – Sarah Kennedy: As I’ve probably mentioned before, I don’t read much on an everyday basis (other than for my studies), but I usually read a bit in my summer holiday, and this year I’ve been reading this book about vintage style. It has beautiful pictures of vintage style icons and gives you tips on how to get the style, and I’ve really enjoyed reading it.

2014_big_hero_6-wide

Big Hero 6 (film): As the huge Disney fan I am, it’s always exciting when I get to watch a Disney film I haven’t watched before. It was actually my mum who raved about this film, and I wasn’t disappointed. This film is great, and I can’t wait to watch it again.

Glass cup with lid and straw: This is a bit of a random favourite. My youngest sister and I got these cups this summer and she made us water with lime (and lemon) and mint several times and it was such a great way of actually drinking water during the day + the cups are super cute.

Still my favourite
