The bad news is that without any make-up I look exactly like Cameron Diaz without make up – no eyebrows, no eyelashes, a bit blotchy and very pale.
The good news is that with make up I don’t look too bad – almost as good as Ms Diaz when she puts make up on :)
I am now old enough to say that I have tried MANY different beauty products over the years and I have finally settled down to using my favorites, not buying new stuff very often anymore.
Here are my tried and tested favorites:
1 Touche Éclat concealer – Yves Saint Laurent (best for under the eyes);
2 Sheer Colour Cream – Bloom (good creamy blusher that works on the lips as well);
3 Diorshow Blackout mascara – Dior (simply the best mascara);
4 Vitalumiere Aqua foundation – Chanel (great smooth foundation that blends in very well and has SPF 15);
5 Retractable brow definer – Bloom (a must for ladies with sparse eyebrows like me, very easy to use and creates very evenly toned eyebrows);
6 Mineral Powder Foundation – Lumene (great for taking a bit of shine off in the summer when I don’t want to use foundation);
7 Advanced night repair serum – Estee Lauder (night time serum that is immediately absorbed by the skin);
8 Immortelle Precious Fluid – L’Occitane (I use this as moisturiser during the day, it absorbes quickly and doesn’t leave my face shiny);
9 Brow Definer – Laura Mercier (my second favorite brow product, used with a brush);
10 Terry Light Expert foundation – Terry (another great foundation that blends in extremely well and is easy to use because of the brush that’s already attached);
11 Proactiv Renewing Cleanser – Proactiv (a gentle yet effective cleanser/exfoliator that keeps my spot prone skin in as good a condition as I could hope for).
Other than that I don’t use a lot of other make-up items. Sometimes I try lipstick, but I usually lick it off :|, sometimes I use eyeliner when I go out. Once in a while I use clay masks of various kinds and for after shower I love L’Occitane’s almond oil.
Now I just have to learn to blowdry my hair and then you’ll totally confuse me with Ms Diaz ;)
Ahh, ma kasutan ka Terry light experti juba yle 5 aasta ja see on toeline photoshop in a bottle…
You told me about it, remember? I’m so glad you did :)
jahh ja see tuletabki meelde et touch eclat on täitsa otsas mul :(
It’s great stuff, no matter how cheesy the commercials are :|
I’ve always been curious about ProActiv, so many celebs seem to flog it! I may just try it on your recommendation! What’s with Ms Diaz lately?? Her face is looking a little different to normal to me…x
I will definitly try the eye brow products you recommend. See you tonight! X
Looks so fancy and sophisticated :) almost like teared out from magazine! Terry Light Expert foundation made me curious- I wonder if I can find it here where I am. And your eyes are so much more beautiful than Diaz’s with or without her make-up on.
ma olen alati imetlenud inimesi, kes ostavad meigiasju ja kasutavad ka neid. ma ostsin neil päevil elu teise puudri. ja pintsli, sest oli vaja,. nüüd peaks keegi kasutama ka hakkama… aga see Su pilt on v hea. jutt ka. ja Sina ise nende abil ka muidugi;)
