Good morning, my loves!
I hope you're having a lovely week. You know my love for lipsticks. I mean, it's no surprise now. I don't think I ever leave my house without wearing lipstick. Whenever I'm not wearing lipstick anyone can tell something is terribly wrong with me ahahahahah. To this point, I don't think anyone could recognize me if I'm not wearing lipstick. Lately, I've been loving me some nudes. It's always about the nude, isn't it? I swear, I need to remember to be a little classy. I make too many puns. Anyway, I wanted to share with you my favourite nude lipsticks but most importantly I want to hear what are YOUR favourite nudes lips. So please let me know in the comments below what are your favourite lipsticks.
― Meet Matt(e) Hughes, The Balm: trustworthy & Daring.
I love the colours of those lipsticks. It suits me so fucking well. It's like my face is more luminous when I'm wearing it. Weirdest thing! The only thing is it's messy. So fucking messy. Whenever I apply it, it slips on my face, make its way onto my teeths... It has a life of its own... It's cray-cray. It's contagious. It leaves me with very dry lips. It needs to be reapplied quite frequently. You need to watch what you eat. I guess, it's just like any other liquid lipstick...
― Everlasting lipstick, Kat Von D: Lolita.
I don't know what it is about this colour but damn, girl. It always looks different when I do 'the paper tissue thing'. It's lovely. It lasts quite well on the lips. It doesn't look patchy after a few hours. It doesn't dry out my lips. For a liquid lipstick, it's pretty good.
― Soft matte lipcream, NYX: Rome.
The perfect ally to the 'no makeup makeup look' is none other than this NYX lipstick. It's the kind of lipstick you can put on under 1 minute and it'll still look good. It's your lips but better. The only downside is that it will vanish quicker than a chocolate tablet.
― clear message, Zoeva: .
This lipstick isn't my usual kind of lipsticks. By that I mean that it's out of my comfort zone. It's a pale colour. It's nude and pale. I'm more into dark lips. I can rock a dark purple any day but pale lips are another story... However, with a smokey eye, it looks wonderful. You cannot have dark lips paired with smokey eyes so you have to find an alternative, can't you? This lipstick is my alternative to bold lips. The light colour only works this way since my skin is quite pale.
As you can see, I'm all about the matte. I guess, I'm just that kind of girl.
Thank you for reading and I'll see you soon ♥ x

Recently, Zoeva has become my go-to for makeup brushes. I think they’re pretty amazing. They are not very expensive. They are soft and easy to wash. They are definitely good quality makeup brushes. I think by now you’ve heard of them. They are pretty much everywhere lately, especially with their new spectrum collection…
As you can notice, I’ve treated myself to their Pink Spectrum Palette. You can see swatches bellow. The consistency is quite creamy for a blush. However, it’s not a cream blush. It’s not drying. It doesn’t flake or force your pores to stand out. It’s quite natural (despite what some shades looks like on my fair forearm ahaha). It gives you a very healthy look. One of the things I like most about this product is that it has no mineral oils, no fragrances, no parabens, no phthalates. Besides, it is darn easy to blend. I could not be happier.
I use the 128 cream cheek brush to apply my bronzer (Terracotta). It’s currently from Guerlain. 125 strippling brush is my number one brush to apply any – heavy or not – foundation. It makes applying your base so quick and easy. Then, we have my 105 luxe highlight brush. It’s perfect for any highlighter. The only downside is probably how white it is. Thus you have to wash it after every use or it becomes sort of orangey. On the bright side, my ‘ stippling ‘ and ‘cream cheek ‘ brushes are Vegan Brushes.
On overall, I’m smitten with Zoeva. It’s affordable. It’s probably the only drugstore makeup I fancy. And you know, I’m usually not a drugstore kind of girl. I always tend to go for high street makeup, no matter how hard I try to settle for a budget friendly version.
This time, I think I’ve found my new number one drugstore brand. Have you ever tried any of their products ? I’ll be interested in knowing about your experience with any of their products. I can’t wait to hear what you have to say about Zoeva!
Thanks for reading and I’ll see you soon, lovelies! ♥
Dernièrement, Zoeva est devenu ma référence en matière de pinceaux à maquillage. Je les trouve plutôt géniaux. Ils ne sont pas très onéreux. Ils sont doux et facile à nettoyer. Ils sont définitivement de bonne qualité. Je pense que vous avez sûrement déjà entendu parlé de cette marque. On entend parler d’eux un peu partout sur la blogosphère, notamment avec leur nouvelle collection Spectrum.
Comme vous avez pu le remarquer, je me suis fait plaisir en achetant la palette de Blush Pink Spectrum. Vous pouvez en voir les swatches dans ce post. La consistance des blushs est assez crémeuse bien que ce ne soit en aucun cas des blushs crème. Ce n’est pas asséchant. Cela ne fait pas ressortir les pores. C’est assez naturel, malgré ce que laisse penser mes swatches sur ma peau pâle ahahaha. Cela fait un effet bonne mine. Ce que j’apprécie le plus avec ces blushs est qu’ils sont sans parabens, sans huiles minérales, sans parfums et sans phthalates. Ils sont également très faciles à utiliser et modulable. Je ne pourrais être plus contente.
J’utilise donc le 128 cream cheek brush pour appliquer mon bronzer. En ce moment j’utilise le terracotta de Guerlain. 125 stippling brush est parfait pour appliquer tout fond de teint. Il rend l’application de fond de teint plus rapide et plus naturelle. Pas de traits de pinceaux, pas d’effet masque (même avec les fonds de teint les plus épais). Enfin, nous avons le my 105 luxe highlight brush que j’utilise pour appliquer mon enluminateur. La seule reproche que je ferais à ce pinceau est sa couleur qui le rend très salissant. Après une application, il devient orange. Cela force donc à le laver après chaque application… Le ‘ stippling ‘ et ‘cream cheek’ sont des pinceaux Vegan.
En conclusion, je suis plutôt enamourée de Zoeva. C’est une marque abordable et de bonne qualité. C’est très certainement la seule marque drugstore que j’affectionne. Comme vous le savez, je ne suis pas une grande fan des produits de grandes surfaces. Et pourtant, ce n’est pas faute d’avoir essayer plusieurs alternatives ! Ma préférence va toujours vers les produits « de luxe ».
Cependant, cette fois, je pense vraiment avoir trouvé la perle rare. Avez-vous déjà essayé les produits dont j’ai parlé ici ou même n’importe quel autre produit de la marque ? Je serais très intéressée de connaître votre expérience avec la marque ou certains autres produits… J’ai hâte de lire vos avis !
Merci pour votre lecture et à bientôt, les lovelies ! ♥
