I have been using Manukahonung MGO 600+ for a while to relieve my sore throat and try to get rid of my recurring sore throat / throat infections. So...
Today's make-up is a dark sweep but as a result gloMinerals Precise Micro Eyeliner in the shade Teal is also a bit colorful with dark green, love this pen on the underside of the eye! :)
This week, L'Oréal Paris launches two super nice lipstick palettes! Color Riche La Palette Lips comes in two different color scales, one in red tones and one in nude tones (both light and a little darker).
Perfect for having a lot of lipstick and the opportunity to vary while it takes up little space in the make-up bag, or if you want to mix colors and make either your own mix or nice umbrella lips.
The palette contains both a large mirror and a small flat brush that provides good precision (important to get nice contours) so it is great to have in the bag and you can easily improve without having to go to the bathroom or have a sticky brush in the toilet.
The texture is very creamy and smooth on the lips, not at all sticky or awkward but the lips become really soft and you quickly forget that you even have something on the lips.
The durability is much like regular lipsticks, it lasts well but needs to be improved when eating and drinking.
Doften är som “klassiska läppstift” brukar dofta, ingen speciell doft utan det doftar typ, läppstift :)
Super nice golden palettes, feels really luxurious and nice!
Fina va? :)
When the flashes hit the red palette, the top shades look a bit coral pink, but if you look at the reflection in the mirror on the red palette, you see more clearly what the red shades look like in reality - more bright red.
Here you see the colors, and I think they are about the same on the lips as they look in the palette.
Red palettecontains shades from bright red and bright to brownish red and a little darker. Perfect for us who love red lips but still want to vary!
Nude palette innehåller en ljus nudefärg, några “läppfärgs-färger” och även en mörkare nudefärg som går mer åt det bruna hållet och är snygg på alla men blir en fin nude-ton på er med mörkare hudton.
I think the colors feel well thought out and really good!
Here you see the 4th shade from the top of the nude palette, a real Helena shade! You get a nice color on the lips without it feeling crunchy in any direction but fits just at all.
Two big thumbs up I say!
The pallets will be launched this week, and cost SEK 229.
“Hej Helena! Jag har läst dina inlägg om Pixis färgade dagkräm + concealer och funderar på att köpa hem en sån! Ditt senaste inlägg “naturlig bassminkning” innehöll jättebra info och wow vilka bilder på Frida! Önskar dock ett inlägg där du inte bara visar före- och efter utan även hur resultatet mellan, hur det ser ut efter bara dagkräm. Kan du lägga ut det så blir jag jätteglad!”
Absolutely! :)
Och ni som missat inlägget “Natural bass makeup”Can click on it and read about everything from shade selection to application and see pictures where I have made up Frida who has both blemishes she wants to make off, as well as freckles that are happy to shine through :) And then this product is perfect!
Pixi Illuminating Tint & Conceal is a wonderful multifunctional product that works as a colored day cream, sunscreen and concealer and provides a natural coverage full of luster!
The colored day cream contains, among other things: Ginseng extract - Has anti-aging properties and evens out skin tone. Ginkgo extract - Anti-inflammatory, soothing and reduces redness of the skin. Extracts from Roman chamomile - Anti-inflammatory, wound healing and soothing. Extracts from Kamelia oleifera - Moisturizes the skin and makes it soft.
The concealer contains aloe vera, Vitamin E and Vitamin C, which nourish and moisturize the skin.
If you unscrew the cap, it is an ordinary tube package with colored, lustrous day cream that provides a very light coverage. And in the cap you unscrewed, there is a concealer that you can easily dab on areas that need more coverage. Super smart!
Here you see the result step by step on my cheek, first unmade up, then with the day cream and finally the pimples are conjured away with the concealer as well.
1. Clean your face and apply the colored day cream.
2. Dab on concealer on the areas you want to cover a little extra. The formula is incredibly soft and smooth, and glides on easily like a patch on the skin while providing superb coverage.
3. Spread the concealer color by dabbing with your fingertip.
Sen är det klart! Fint både om man är sminkad, och om man är “osminkad”.
If you cover the skin more than this, you can usually look a little flat on the face, and then you need contouring, blush, eyebrows, etc. to not look like a ghost. But with this base from Pixi, you end up right at a limit, I think, that you are super nice even if you stop putting on make-up here and do nothing more at all :) No make-up made up!
But now I think I have included everything that can be said about this, if you read my latest posts about it. But if you have any questions, it is as usual just to comment and I will answer as soon as possible.
This week I received a nice press release from Makiash, which I was going to show you as I really like their products that I have tested before! :)
I have not tested the lip gloss, concealer and eye shadows before, but the pen (although I have tested their glittery pencils), powder and mascara I have tested and like them all!
Powdered is great to fix foundation with, and it's really great to apply! I have never felt this way with any other powder, but this powder feels moist on the face when you apply it, even though it is completely dry! Very strange, but nice, feeling :)
Mascaran är också väldigt bra, minns inte i exakt detalj vad jag tyckte om den och hittar ingen gammal recension i arkivet, men jag tycker att den ger väldigt fina fransar och är betydligt lättare att applicera än man kan tro när man tittar på borsten. Borsten är en klassisk borste som jag tänker “den här kommer jag inte gilla” för den ser nästan lite rufsig ut. Men jag gillar den! :)
Kajalpennan I have tested is their smokey series and it was both easy to apply, durable (even without eyeshadow primer) and above all crazy good looking!
Here is a make-up I did in September 2014 with Makiash glittery smokey eye pencil all over the eyelid, so there is no eye shadow here but just a glittery eyeliner pencil :)
Here you see a swatch on the concealer trio I got in the package. It is one of their best sellers and it is good with different shades because then you can mix one that is perfect, and use on different parts of the face. But if you are as bright as me, you probably only have use for the brightest, so then a trio palette is a bit unnecessary perhaps.
You will find all products at Makiash.com and it is possible to shop online.
Is there any product you want to see a detailed review of soon? :) Or a make-up with the eye shadows maybe? Make suggestions if you are hungry for something special!
I mitt inlägg “Make up the winter!”So I had founded with a product that I only mentioned in passing, but now I thought I would give you a real review of it!
Benefit Dew the Hoola är produkten jag pratar om – en bronzergel eller “en-dags-brun utan sol” för ansiktet som gör huden solbrun för dagen. Jag fick den i goodebagen på ett pressevent med Sephora, det finns en likadan gel fast för kroppen också som jag fick testa på eventet, och av det lilla jag kunde bedöma då (hade på ena armen) var att jag verkligen kan rekommendera den också :)
“Benefit Dew the Hoola Soft Matte Liquid Bronzer for face” är alltså en brun gel som kommer i världens sötaste förpackning (!) och är till för att få mer färg i ansiktet.
It gives tan without sun effect and makes your skin browner, but does not react with your dead skin cells as regular tan without sun does, but is more like a make-up product and is easily washed off in the evening.
Good either as a complement to Hoola Zero Tanlines (the same kind of product but for the body), but also to buy alone if you are so dressed in the winter now that it is enough to wear on the face and neck without it looking crunchy then the rest of the body is covered with clothes.
“Kan man inte bara ha en för mörk foundation?” tänker ni kanske, men denna kladdar inte av sig på kläderna, är lättare att applicera, och går att använda även om man ska se helt osminkad ut då den inte ger någon täckning alls. Så det är inte samma sak som en för mörk foundation :)
The bronzer gel comes in a practical pump bottle, which is easy to apply on the face and down the neck - just take a click and apply as a regular day cream!
Hoola Zero Tanlines, which are for the body, have a sponge in them that you rub the cream into the skin with, which makes it easier to get an even color on large areas. But in smaller areas, it works great to lubricate with just your hands.
Here you see before and after and I have smeared both face, neck, décolleté and the upper part of the arms. But if you use it often, you should get it for the body if you want to lubricate more than the face and neck, it felt like I use an unnecessarily large part of the small bottle for just one day :)
Application
I think it is very easy to apply, it dries in quite quickly, which means that you have to be quite fast to get it even, but if it had dried slowly, it would probably have felt hard when you want to get dressed right away so I still think it is very positive.
Color
The color becomes even and the shade becomes very nice and natural! I thought immediately afterwards that I might. maybe it looked a little orange-brown, but when it went into the skin properly, it looked really nice after just a few minutes.
Feeling
The skin becomes silky smooth and beautiful! Not at all sticky, shiny, greasy, dry or anything like that. But just smooth and fresh!
Fragrance
It smells summery and good, a little tropical.
Results
I'm really happy with this one, and would love it for the body too! Perfect in the spring when you want to be able to go with bare legs and light outfits without feeling pale and dull. Maybe hard to have to use every day, but perfect on those days you want to be a little extra fresh or if you are going to a party and do not want to risk tanning without sun accidents.
I asked Jeanette and Sandra in the store if they saw any difference in me, Jeanette immediately saw that I looked brown but Sandra guessed at the wrong things - which means that the result is very natural :)
sustainability
The color stays nice all day, and when you wash your face, it disappears completely. It does not smudge on the clothes either, although I wore it to a white sweater with a polo collar :)
Thumbs up I say!
I'm a little unsure of what it costs at Sephora to be honest, but it costs £ 22.50 at Benefitcosmetics.com, but will not be launched until March 12th.
