24 Days of Clinique

Image
In December, I will be opening one box from the Adventskalender of Clinique ...  To be honest, I wanted to buy the one from Kiehl's... but it was finished already in all the shops in Italy. So I got this one from Clinique (please see below). I also like Clinique a lot, used the hydration surge cream before. Used also the all about eyes roll-on serum . Love the lipstick with a fuchsia colour, I think it is called chubby stick intense . Then for the sensitive skin, it has a cleanser that is really great: Clinique facial soap for sensitive skin . So happy with that one, too. So we will see at the end of 2019, how this thing with the advent calendar will work. This is the photo from www.zalando.it Every day from 1st of December till 24th of December, I will share with you a photo, make a review and tell the pros and cons of the product, and give you a lot of information on these little samples coming from the calendar. Looking forward to it! Hope you will enjoy my reviews, too!

My favourite brushes for daily use

Well, I know what you will say if I say "I do not wear makeup every day". I really do not. Especially in November, I feel too depressed to wear makeup. But when I do, I have three to four brushes that I use and will introduce them to you now with great pleasure, cause they are good to me and I am good to them (I did not mean to personify them this much, nothing is more important than trees, animals and persons). Okay having said that let us start with the fact that I have a leaning towards KIKO brushes, yes, they are good, yes, they are professional, and yes they do look aesthetic. I have three brushes from KIKO, and then one from Bodyshop, and one from Bellàpiere. Then there is another one Kabuki teint 47, but do not remember when and how I got that one. Maybe it was a present. Let's shoot. The best and the most practical eye shadow brush ever, one brush but have two functions: to spread and to specify. You shoot two birds with one stone (and hope you never do that)

My Best BB Cream(s) Forever (?) Dior discontinued !

The first time I learnt about the BB creams, I was quite uneducated about them. I had no idea why there was such a cream, what it worked for and how it was different from the foundations, fondo tinta, and fond de teint. They are lighter than fond de teint, they are not as sticky as fond de teint and they are more creamy and hydrating in a way... well, depends on which foundations you use, too. I will tell you my first two favourites and then will suggest two other very very good ones. DIOR HYDRA LIFE BB CREAM: GOOD COVERAGE So the first one is this one, you all probably know about it: Dior Hydra Life BB cream . It is such a nice one. It looks very natural and thin on the skin. That is what I look for! It hydrates. Well, I also use sometimes hydrating cream beneath. I chose the colour beige lumière and it fits me really well. The smell is nice but I have to say that it is a bit like the cosmetical smell, something a bit chemical is sensed in it. But no bother... I love it and hav
