Let's love life with Melkior

Nowadays we have many innovations in all domains especially in tehnology and science but they all come at a heavy price : the increasing pollution, the dissapearance of the ozone layer, the rise of the water level, the global warming effects and many more. We should love and protect our planet and cherish all the things that it has given us.

I am very glad to see more and more brands that work to spread awareness about the Earth's protection. If each and every one of us is more aware of these problems and try to solve them as best as we can, Earth will be a better place to live!

Melkior has just lanched a new collection entitled "Let's love life!" to remind everyone that our planet is very important and we should cherish and protect it!

Wycon Wild Escape limited collection or glamour on the go - swatches

You know me : I looove to check out the latest releases and just wander in beauty stores at leisure, enjoying and swatching the goodies there. This was no exception, I went to Wycon to check out the latest releases. Just in time to enjoy the latest limited edition : Wild Escape.
    
The inspiration for this new collection is an escape to wild places, from the mundane to the exotic. The collection contains exclusive make-up products using warm colors with a metallized pink gold packaging.

MustaeV wishlist - Eye Make-up Edition

I have met MustaeV quite recently by testing their Skinny Tint foundation, which was a very pleasant surprise for me. I really didn't expect with my combination to oily skin (more towards oily now that's summer) that this moisturizing foundation would last all day on me, without melting and dissapearing in different places, especially around the nose. 

   
I had a full 10 hour day at work and I was really excited to see it almost as well applied onto the face as in the morning. Yes I had to blot and reapply powder around every 4 hours but I have to do this with almost every foundation  anyway. So yes, my first encounter with MustaeV was a hit!

New in - make-up edition - with swatches

I have gathered several eye shadows from Inglot, L' Oreal, Melkior and one from Make-up Geek (I was really curious about it, I've heard so much about their amazing quality).

Summer is geting closer! It's Party Time !!

"When the sun is setting in the sky
Everybody knows it's party time
  And when the moon is rising high
   I'll be yours, I know you'll be mine"

You'll Be Mine (Party Time) - Gloria Estefan

The most famous party time period known in history was in the 70's, the Studio 54 era. It was an era of excesses - they partied like there was no tomorrow under the belief that "everything goes". There were no rules, no boundaries, it was all about the attitude - being the most flamboyant, unique, eye-catching and risque was a must !

The collection is created in collaboration with industrial design brand Kartell which is known for its transparent designs.

The eye shadows : from left to right - Ethereal - matte , Coral fusion - matte , Air blue - shimmer, Iris - shimmer and Diaphane - shimmer (I simply forgot to photo and swatch one: the matte Vintage Rose, from what I remember it is a very light cold pink shade, almost white and completely matte):
