Take Me With You, Nudestix Nudies!

The travel-friendly Nudestix Nudies ($30 each, offered in 5 shades)
I don’t exactly how this happened, since it feels like I’ve been looking ahead to this trip forever, however I’m leaving for Hawaii in less than two weeks! — which implies that I most likely ought to begin packing best NOW.

It’s all about portable beauty, as well as I’m hell-bent on discovering multitasking makeup to bring that won’t take up a great deal of room, so as to have more space to bring house dashboard hula girls, macadamia nuts as well as the like.

REKLAMA

Let’s make this a series! I’m gonna phone call it “Take Me With You,” as well as the very first entry is these new Nudestix Nudies. They were just recently added to the Nudestix long-term line.

Nudestix is a cruelty-free Canadian brand, as well as whatever in their line is available in a pencil or some type of stick packaging.

Yes, this makes them fantastic for travel.

Makeup in the palm of your hand
The Nudies are multipurpose creams for your cheeks, lids as well as lips. They’re $30 each as well as are available in five shades. One end has a cream stick, as well as the other end has a dense, soft clean to apply as well as blend the product.

I’ve tried two of them — awesome pink Bare Back (um…which I’m quite sure refers to something naughty) as well as rosy nude Naughty N’ Spice.

Bare Back on my cheeks as well as Naughty N’ flavor on the lower part of the apples of my cheeks. as well as that’s Kosas Undone Lipstick on my lips.

I like utilizing these as cream blushes since they last permanently as well as a day on my dry cheeks. Not to mention (although I’m discussing it now), they don’t push around whatever products I wear beneath them, like if I’m sporting a tinted moisturizer, BB cream and/or concealer. They likewise apply evenly as well as stay intact throughout the day.

See the brush?
When I utilize them as blushes, I tons up a finger by scrubing the cream stick a few times, then I dab that on my cheeks as well as blend either with my fingers or the clean on the other end of the stick. They quite much work the exact same method whichever one I use.

Bare Back (top) as well as Naughty N’ flavor (bottom)
Even though I barely ever do matching monochromatic eyeshadow as well as blush, since range (which I like to pronounce “var-eye-eh-TAY”) is the flavor of life, I completely do utilize these as eyeshadows, too.

That’s Naughty N’ flavor on the left as well as Bare Back on the right
And they’ll work as lipsticks in a pinch…but the mattes will catch on any type of lip flakes, so I’d get a lip balm up in there, either under or on top of them.

They’re perfect bit travel companions, as well as they’re waiting on your lovin’ accept on the internet as well as at Sephora stores best meow.

Fruit-infused water

OK, so this 18.6-oz. bottle doesn’t hold almost sufficient water to bring me for long (I drink A great deal of water, or at least I try to), however this new doohickey is so much fun, so I’ve been utilizing it anyway. It’s a tea infuser by Grosche.

The infuser is developed into the bottom of the bottle. Technically, it’s developed for loose tea, however chopped fruit, herbs as well as whatnot in shape in there just fine. Today I made a strawberry as well as blackberry combo.

REKLAMA

The bottle’s adorable as well as completely works, however I just desire it was about three times bigger!

Urban Decay Troublemaker paleta: Tato fabulózně flexibilní paleta je v prodeji nyní

Jsi troublemaker, Urban Decay!
Líbilo se mi paletu Urban Decay Troublemaker, když to vyšlo za $ 39 poslední pád, ale je to na prodej za 19 dolarů teď! Děláš si ze mě srandu?! Miluji to v této ceně, což je, kolik je nyní v prodeji (jak mluvíme ve společnosti Sephora a webové stránky UD). Myslím, že je to skvělá “jít ven” paletu, a dostanete HELLA Major Bang za vaši buck za tuto cenu.

Když to otevíráte, vypadá to, že existuje devět odstínů, protože existuje devět pánví, ale ve skutečnosti 10, protože dva odstíny sdílí střet, středovou pánev. Je to rozděleno mezi černou a bílou, a já nechápu odůvodnění za to, že černá se dostane do bílé, a bílá se dostane do černé, ale oba jsou užitečné, takže můžu žít s ním, zejména na 19 dolarů.

REKLAMA

Paleta je dodávána také s miniaturní trouberkarka řasenka, která vyniká v zahušťování, ale je jen v pořádku při prodloužení a podržení curl (obvykle skončí vrstvení pod samostatnou prodlouženou vodotěsnou řasenku).

Teď tři teplé tónované hnědé matné v této paletě jsou to, co bump tento špatný mladý chlapec až do úrovně bad-@ ss. Žádný z nich není příliš oranžový-y nebo načervenalý, což jsou nejlepší trendy nejlepší, a všechny tři jsou eminentně užitečné den / noční barvy. Nejlehčí člověk mi připomíná Mac Bamboo, zatímco střední tónovaný vypadá jako Mac měkký hnědý, a tmavě hnědá by mohla prakticky projít pro Mac Brown Down Dupe.

Jsou to barvy, které vím, že můžu nosit ve dne a v noci. Dokonce i ve 2 hodiny ráno … Ne, že nemám mnoho příčiny nosit oční stíny na 2 ráno (již).

Tam jsou také čtyři kovové šperky tóny, které dvojité jako jiskřivé, lesklé oční látky. Cítí se trochu chunker než hnědé a vykazují trochu spadku – mnohem více než hnědé (které nemají žádný podzim) – ale na prodejní cenu, jsem s tím v pořádku.

Takže, když jdete na párty, tato paleta dělá to opravdu snadné dát oko dohlížet dohromady. Můžete mixovat jeden nebo dva hnědé na víčkách, pak řádek lash linky s některou z kovů.

Tam jsou některé dobré možnosti zde hrát se stínovou intenzitou, zejména s tóny šperků v tandemu s bílým černým střetem. V top pic, mám na sobě zelený stín, bankroll, vrstvený na vrcholu černého stínu v střetu.

V podstatě, použití kovů na vrcholu černého odstínu je z nich vypadat bohatší, tmavší a hlubší a uplatňovat je na vrcholu bílého odstínu činí z nich jasněji.

To je docela dobrý prodej na docela flexibilní paletě. Chci říct, hnědé jsou skvělé, ale metalika spojená s bílým / černým střetem si ji vezmou na další úroveň.

Je to užitečné a je to na prodej!

By Terry Baume de increased Nutri-Couleur Luxe tinted Lip Balm in Mauve Moon as well as Corail outstanding

using By Terry Baume de increased in Corail outstanding ($58)
To me, few brands are a lot more stylish than By Terry. I’ve adored the unquestionably luxe line considering that the very first time I identified the brand while living in Paris. I still keep in mind the excitement I got from splurging on my extremely very first tub of Baume de increased lip balm… exactly how decadent it was! The rich, soothing cream never left my college handbag up until I’d utilized every last bit on my dry patches, cuticles and, of course, lips.

Later a great buddy sent me Or de Rose, a golden shimmering handle the original, except with increased gold packaging, as well as I am still scraping to get out every last drop.

REKLAMA

I jumped for happiness as well as nostalgic enjoyment when, this past year, By Terry released Baume de increased Nutri-Couleur, a tinted version of her valuable cult traditional in a variety of shades from berries to traditional cherry reds as well as deep maroons.

For spring 2016, By Terry has added two new shades — Mauve Moon as well as Corail outstanding ($56 each) — the very first in the line to consist of subtle shimmer, as well as they’re just as sensational as their predecessors.

As a dry-lipped lass, I truly appreciate the tinted handle By Terry’s traditional lip balm formula, which I clearly love, as I’ve almost demolished two pots of the original as well as two pots of the golden shimmering version, as well as Baume de increased Nutri-Couleur quickly lives as much as the classic’s standard.

Lips will lap up this deep-down long-lasting cure.”

—spacenk.com

Just as rich as well as moisturizing as the untinted version, the tinted rendition likewise has a terrific rosy garden scent, which smells like genuine life roses as well as eco-friendly stems.

I adore it but, as a word to the wise, if you’re sensitive to scented lip products, you may want to reconsider, as the rosy scent lingers on lips for a while.

(L to R): By Terry Baume de increased in Mauve Moon as well as Corail Stellar

Mauve Moon, an exquisitely subtle lavender, pulls both pink as well as blue, depending upon the light, as well as it shimmers, however it’s not overt. When very carefully applied, it emphasizes my natural lip color ever so slightly. (I never believed I’d discover a purple “my lips however better” shade, as well as yet right here it is!)

Mauve’s coral cousin, Corail Stellar, is a delicate, shimmering peach that provides lips a traditional springtime flush. like Mauve Moon, it’s a lot more opalescent than glittery when applied. I was pleasantly shocked by Corail Stellar, as I believe it looks rather shockingly orange in the pot, however don’t be fooled. It’s an downplayed springtime peach ripe for the picking.

So, what turned By Terry’s Baume de increased into a cult classic? The aura of self-pampering (#treatyoself) definitely gets partial credit score for its success. I mean, who among us doesn’t take pleasure in something elegant from time to time?

Crazy colors Made Wearable: A concern of balance

MAC Lipstick in Heroine ($17) on my lips
If you understand me (and possibilities are you don’t yet, however I do hope we get there!), then you’ll understand that I like color, particularly when it is available in the type of a TF-engraved bullet — however I’m not one to underestimate the power of purple eyeshadow or teal liner either.

Yet the comments I get the most on my blog are when I wear natural, traditional looks. Which got me wondering… How’s that even possible? Can you wear vibrant makeup as well as still look natural?

REKLAMA

Well, as a matter of fact, YES, I believe you totally can! just like whatever in life, it’s a concern of balance.

Which just means that if you play something up, you should play something else down. So, if you’re utilizing bright shades on your eyes or lips, in order to get well-balanced, natural-looking makeup, my primary tip is to go extremely very little with your base as well as brows. let me explain this in more detail…

Maybelline Master drama Chromatics in Magic Magenta (LE) on my eyes
Start with a light base

Even though I commonly have rather a few acnes to conceal, I usually like to apply a lightweight foundation (my oily skin likes Chanel perfection Lumière Velvet, since it’s matte, yet luminous), as well as then utilize a full-coverage concealer only on my issue areas, to ensure that the end result is extremely natural as well as not mask-like at all.

Contour subtly with powder products

Since cream contour can commonly look as well heavy as well as harsh, I suggest opting for shaping powders, which are not as simple to overdo.

Laura Mercier Crème Eye liner in Canard ($25) on my eyes as well as BITE beauty luminous Crème Lipstick in Palomino (discontinued) on my lips
Skip the highlight

I understand highlighters are all popular these days, however in my viewpoint the extremely shimmery/metallic ones can look quite artificial. If you feel like your skin tone looks as well boring as well as flat, try utilizing something more downplayed like the hourglass Ambient illumination Powders or a highlighting blush.

Keep your brows as natural possible

I believe this is truly vital to balance out those crazy hues. extremely strong, sculpted brows can quickly make you look overdone, so my tip is to either utilize a tinted gel to define as well as set in one single step, or a pencil to extremely lightly fill them in (for a softer look, try utilizing the side of the tip rather than the point).

Thrash as well as metropolitan from the metropolitan Decay electric pressed Pigment combination ($49) on my eyes as well as Anastasia Beverly Hills perfect Brow Pencil in Dark brown ($23) on my brows
Ditch those falsies as well as black liner

REKLAMA

Although your Instagram or Pinterest feeds are most likely suggesting that makeup isn’t total without falsies as well as thick black liner, I personally disagree. In my opinion, if you’re going for a colorful, yet fresh-faced look, you can just avoid them altogether. OR, if you discover that lashings of mascara aren’t sufficient to define your eyes, I suggest adding a extremely thin line with a bit flick and/or private lashes.

If you’re somebody who’s always been drawn in to vibrant makeup however have never dared to wear it in public, you may wanna provide this pared-down version a try.

Most people won’t even notice! The other day, while I was using this lime eco-friendly as well as purple eyeshadow, in chronological order I met:

A shipment guy who didn’t bat an eyelash, even though I had only one eye done (why do they always come to the door at the worst possible time? WHY???). You may be thinking, that doesn’t count, since he’s most likely seen things that we humans wouldn’t believe… fair enough, just let me go on with my list.

My downstairs neighbor, the sweetest 90-year-old to ever walk this world (and potentially the very best cook in town. She always makes her landing odor divine!). I don’t understand if lime eco-friendly eyeshadow even existed back when she was born, however the smile she greeted me with was the exact same as any type of other day.

The owner of the create store around the corner. With the ridiculous amount of avocados I buy from him, I may extremely well be his finest customer, so I don’t believe he’d provide a damn even if he saw me go into his store using one of woman Gaga’s earliest makeup looks as well as outfits, as long as I keep visiting his store. I’ve never truly tried that, however I can guarantee you that he didn’t provide me any type of sidelong glances for using lime eco-friendly as well as purple on my eyes.

The fourth grader I’m mentor English to. She’s the only one who really noticed my vibrant shadows (and funny-looking hair) as well as stated that I resembled one of the Winx Club fairies… trust me, she meant it as HUUUGE compliment.

Žádný z těchto tipů nejsou nerozbitná pravidla. Pevně věřím, že když přijde na make-up, není to správné nebo špatné, jen to, co děláte, stejně jako nelíbí. Takže experiment, hrát, bavte se … Koneckonců, není to, co je make-up opravdu o?!

Nudes for all skin tones

I like that there are some rich browns as well as burgundies among them (good nude choices for deeper skin tones), so they aren’t all just basic pale pinks as well as beige. BECCA has always been fantastic about including shades for a wide variety of skin tones, as well as they’re keeping it up here.

But do they taste like coffee?

I expected they may based on the shade names (which would be SO next level!), however alas, they don’t.

They taste a bit like vanilla. Možná. If I close my eyes as well as believe about it, LOL!

Chai Creme, the one closest to my natural lip color, has been chillin’ in my handbag for the past two weeks, except when it isn’t since I’ve swapped it out for Ginger Vanille or cafe Milk Chocolate. I dig that I can slick any type of of them on my lips without needing a mirror.

Have you ever had almond roca candy, like the kind in the pink tin? Toffee dipped in chocolate as well as crushed almonds? In high school, my buddy Jen as well as I went with a phase when we were obsessively eating everything the time, even for breakfast (OMG!).

Anyway, the drink tastes like somebody melted a handful of almond rocas into the smoothest, strongest coffee imaginable, then three in pieces of dark chocolate.

UGH, I almost cried. Bylo to tak dobré!

And not only was it freakin’ delicious, however it likewise kept me buzzing for hours. I had my drink at noon, as well as I was still on freakin’ terminate in HIIT class at 6.

The MAC studio QuikTrik Sticks

There’s a new stick in town…
I’m no She-Ra/She-Hulk, but those push-ups and rows I’ve been doing in my high-intensity interval training classes need to be paying off, because I inadvertently broke two of these MAC studio QuikTrik Sticks.

Mostly, it’s because they’re very soft, and in some ways, that’s great, because it makes them so easy to blend. On the other hand, though — broken sticks. Don’t press too hard.

REKLAMA

These creamy $32 sticks do a bit of everything. They’re like blushes, contouring products and highlighting sticks in one.

Kinda sorta like MAC’s version of the NARS Multiples (except not explicitly recommended for use on your lips and eyes), they’ve been available for while, and MAC says they’re for use all over your face.

The 6 MAC QuikTrik Sticks
I’ve only used them as blushes and for highlighting so far, so if you’ve used them on your lips and eyes, please let me know how it’s gone for you.

They’re incredibly creamy, incredibly soft, easy to blend, and they look a little dewy on the skin, right? They’ve got that glow happening that I love.

The formula stays a bit — gosh, what’s the ideal word? — tacky? Wet?

I don’t want to say “wet,” so I’ll just say “creamy” instead. It stays creamy for an hour or so before completely drying down, and that makes them easy to blend. Of course, if they dried down to a powder a lot more quickly, they would probably last longer…

On my combination skin, without anything else on top of them, they last between 4-6 hours, which isn’t bad. You could probably also extend that by layering a powder product on top and, depending on what you used, still keep the shine. For instance, you could add a powder blush with a sheen or a highlighter with a sheen or sparkle. but that’s if you’re hardcore.

MAC studio QuikTrik Sticks
$32, available in six limited edition shades; available now online and in-stores through December 15, 2016

I think that cream products do sit differently on the skin than powders do alone, and you get a completely different look when you layer a powder on top of them. Powder alone can often look flat, but when you apply a powder on top of a cream, you get a lot more dynamic and interesting textures and colors with a lot more dimension.

Here I’m wearing Counterpoint as a blush on the apples of my cheeks and Ginger Spiked as a highlighter on my upper cheekbones, down the bridge of my nose and at my temples.

I like the dewy look… I didn’t set them with anything, so I kept them looking creamy, and I had to reapply after about five hours.

Earlier I pointed out the NARS Multiples, and while I haven’t used the Multiples in a while, I remember them being slightly drier than these. I think these are a bit much easier to blend.

Potěšen pondělí!

Takže … Jaký je pondělní průzkum?

Není to právě průzkum. Je to mnohem více pravidelně se vyvíjejícím (devolní?), Poněkud náhodný seznam obav, které jsem dal návštěvníkům každou pondělí ráno za posledních 10 let. (Je to jako kickstart pro váš mozek.) Vždycky jsem si potěšil čtení vašich odpovědí v komentáři, stejně jako doufám, že si budete mít radost ze čtení dolu.

1. Co jste dnes ráno jedli na snídani?

Dvě zmrazené vafle se smetanovým arašídovým máslem (ne křupavými), stejně jako rozinky nahoře.

Neměl jsem to v měsících, ale všechno jsem jedl čas, kdy jsem očekával s Connorem. Druhý den jsem dostal extrémní touhu, takže jsem věřil, že jsem zpátky na mražených vaflých vlaku.

2. Vaše preferovaná dětská televizní televize se vrátí v den?

Upřímně řečeno, uděláš mě jen jeden? Protože to je krutý. Televize byla neplacená hlídačka mládeže let. Užili jsme si spoustu televize. Omezený čas obrazovky nebylo v mé rodině nic.

To řekl, že se mi líbí elektrická společnost. Stejně jako Wizardův svět. stejně jako JEM. stejně jako SMURF, stejně jako Voltron.

3. Co je to první slovo, které se nyní týká myšlenky.

Guacamole!

4. Kdo byl první osobou, na kterou jste kdy měli zamilovanost?

Mladík jménem Brian v mé první třídě. Dokonce jsem se skládal dolů “Líbí se mi Brian” na postele, protože jsem do něj byl soooo. Lol! Moje máma to objevila stejně dobře, jak se nemohla zkontrolovat své psaní, takže mě držela. “Kdo je tento chlapec? Jaké je jeho jméno?” Stejně jako jsem právě jsem byl vyděšený, stejně jako neřekl jí. Takže ona stejně jako můj táta udělal detektivní práci! Dali na své detektivní čepice, stejně jako šel s výpisem mladých lidí v mé první třídě třídy, snažil se najít všechny kousky dětí, jejichž jména začala s “B.” Eventually, they came upon a kid named Brandon, as well as then they were like, “Do you like Brandon? Do you have a crush on Brandon?” trochu škádlí mě – pochopíte přesně, jak se rodiče často dělají – stejně jako já, být neuvěřitelně citlivý, stejně jako všichni, nerozuměli přesně, jak říct: “Prosím, přestaň mě škádlit. Nelíbí se mi to. ” I just wished to hide in my space as well as cry, since I was embarrassed as well as confused about my feelings for Brian, so I said, “Yes.”

And to this day they still believe I liked some dude named Brandon.

5. What’s worse — losing your makeup bag on a trip, or losing your luggage?

Both would be relatively terrible, however losing my luggage would be waaaaay worse…because I can quite much restock a makeup bag from scratch with my eyes closed.

Šťastné pondělí

Dobré ráno příteli! I’m glad you might stop by this morning. I hope all is going well. It’s great to see you.
