Melkior I'm in love collection and other bitesize news

As Valentine's Day is getting closer I thought I would share with you the latest make-up collection from Melkior to help you inspire yourself for the Vday make-up and look. It is a serious matter which deserves the outmost attention.

Rosy Pink make-up look

I'm back my lovely readers with a new make-up look; today the weather is slightly cloudy and grim so I thought a nice make-up look will make everything better. This time I did a Rosy Pink make-up look with the help of the MustaeV Dazzle Pink mono eyeshadow and the MUSTAEV TEN SHADE LIP CREAM PRO PALETTE, I adore.

I love both of them dearly! (I have thought about showing you some of my daily make-up looks and the products I use for a long time and it has proved difficult for me so far since I often don't have time to photo the products and the make-up look. But I'll try my best ; I want to show you the products in the make-up look, on the face not only in swatches, writing about them.) Let's begin :

Sabon Dead Sea collection, first impressions

Hello my lovely readers today I'm back with my first impressions on the newly launched Sabon Dead Sea collection.

Bioderma and the make up removal lesson

A loud classroom at the Happy Skin School is awaiting the teacher. They are speaking loudly and moving endlessly across the room. The bell rings and rings and gradually the children take their seats in the classroom. Teacher M enters the class.
'Good morning children'. 'Good morning teacher'. 'Today's lesson is about make-up removal, or how to have a happy, healthy skin'.

My freezing temperatures face care routine

It is winter here in Bucharest, freezing temperatures, high snow, weather forecasts predicting even more snow and low temperatures. Until about one week ago the winter was mild and warm. Now it has arrived with a bang! The temperatures are -20,-15 or less at night and -10 or less at day. And my skin is not taking it well. It has become dehydrated, dry, brittle and I got out of my stash the heavy guns : the products which are the most moisturizing and thick and creamy and comforting. So I decided to share them with you. Today's post is all about the face care routine (make-up removal, face hydration, face masks and make-up products). I'll be back with another post on the body care for these freezing temperatures. Let's begin!

S Coffee - a great way to start the day

No matter what historians claimed, BC really stood for "Before Coffee.” Cherise Sinclair, Master of the Mountain. Yes, all modern living cannot happen without coffee. At least in my case. I don't feel fully awake before my morning coffee. And I also love the Me time my morning coffee provides. It is a ritual of my own, a small daily pleasure I indulge in before facing the challenges of the day. And if it is about sharing the moment with friends the enjoyment will be even greater. So when I received the invitation to do an S coffee sampling with several other bloggers I love, of course I said yes!

Of course I had to show the new Valentine's collection to you. It is already available in stores and online so check it out!

Golden Peach make-up look

I'm back my lovely readers with a new make-up look; today the weather got cloudy and rainy so I thought a nice make-up look will make everything better. This time I did a Golden Peach make-up look with the help of the MustaeV Color Powder in Moonlight Champagne and the MustaeV Glazing Lip Gloss in Golden Peach over the shade of lipstick I wore. I love both of them dearly! (I have thought about showing you some of my daily make-up looks and the products I use for a long time and it has proved difficult for me so far since I often don't have time to photo the products and the make-up look. But I'll try my best ; I want to show you the products in the make-up look, on the face not only in swatches, writing about them.) Let's begin :

MustaeV Cheeky Chic blush in Floral Glow - review

I think one of the best investments make-up wise for a beautiful look besides a good base is a great blush. I believe that a good blush suitable for your skin and hair color works wonders! It revives a tired complexion, makes you look good even if you are sick and makes you look younger and fresh if applied sparingly for a natural effect. There are universal blush colours that suit most complexions and work for all seasons. One of these is certainly a good pink. Today's post stars a blush that has entered quickly in my make-up favourites. It is MustaeV Cheeky Chic blush in Floral Glow.

Longing for the summer - Ming Shu Fleur de l'Aube

Today's post in a trip in the past, the perfume it features is one of the oldies and goodies (it's no longer available, maybe on Ebay). It is a perfume I own for many years, I use it sparingly since I love it very much and I am trying to keep it with me a little longer. It is Yves Rocher Ming Shu Fleur de l'Aube. When I wear it I feel the summer breeze, the sunshine, I feel free and happy, feminine and elegant, ready to take on the world.

Estee Lauder Color Edit holiday set

As I told you in a previous post estee-lauder-modern-muse-le-rouge  I recevied from my Santa the Estee Lauder Color Edit holiday set (I've unboxed it on Periscope, the video is here : katch.me/adrianatone/esteelaudercoloureditset). If I bought a perfume or a perfume set, I would receive the set at a very convenient price. So I decided to  buy a set of 4 mini size perfumes by Estee Lauder : Beautiful, Pleasures, Modern Muse and Modern Muse Le Rouge (my Santa didn't want to receive the money for the set, giving it to me as a gift).

Many of the products in the set are limited edition but I saw a similar set here in Romania at Debehams beauty therefore I thought I would show my set to you and write my first impressions on some of the products (there will be reviews for all the products in the set on the blog) to help you decide should you want to buy the Romanian version.

Pink Sparkle make-up look

Hello my sweet readers I'm back today with a new make-up look; I took advantage of this great winter sunny day, after days and days of bad weather. Today I felt in the mood for a touch of glamour so I decided to wear one of my newest glitter pigments on my stash MustaeV Color Powder in Starlight Pink and create my make-up look around it.

I have thought about showing you some of my daily make-up looks and the products I use for a long time and it has proved difficult for me so far since I often don't have time to photo the products and the make-up look. But I'll try my best ; I want to show you the products in the make-up look, on the face not only in swatches, writing about them. So I'm back again with a make-up look, this time it's the Pink Sparkle make-up look (I love my pinks! they put me in a good mood).

Sephora Instant Nail Polish Remover For Glitter - review

I am not really a nail polish addict, you may have noticed that on the blog , the nail polishes are few and far between but I like to wear nail polishes. On my nails they don't last long. What I really, really hate is chipped nail polish, so whenever I see one nail chipped I remove all of them.

Until now, I had the tendency to shy away from glitter nail polishes due to the pain of removing them. Well, after I bought the Sephora Instant Nail Polish Remover For Glitter, this ceased to be a problem. Why haven't I tried this before ??

Estee Lauder Modern Muse Le Rouge - dare to inspire

This past Christmas I was very good so my Santa brought me an Estee lauder set (I've unboxed it on Periscope, the video is here : katch.me/adrianatone/esteelaudercoloureditset). If I bought a perfume or a perfume set, I would receive the set at a convenient price. So I decided to  buy a set of 4 mini size perfumes by Estee Lauder : Beautiful, Pleasures, Modern Muse and Modern Muse Le Rouge. So far, I love the most Modern Muse Le Rouge and that's why it is the subject of my post today.
