The world I live in

Hello guys!

I would like to show you in this post my little skincare routine. I'm going to show you how do I care for my skin in the morning and evening. Skincare is very important, but you definitely know that. I have to confess that when I was younger, I neglected it. I didn't even use any moisturizer, so my skin was so dry that I had a small flakes on my face. I started doing my routine about three years ago, and I'm glad I did, because when you get older, your face is more sensitive, drier and wrinkles are formed more rapidly. These products I'm going to show you are made for dry skin, but it doesn't mean that I would do my routine differently if I had oily skin, I would only change products.

Liquid facial soap

I begin my day with this liquid facial soap from Clinique. This soap is perfect for refreshing and cleansing your skin. I use it in the morning and evening as well, after I take my makeup off. It also helps you to remove the remnants of makeup. It doesn't dry out your skin, so don't be afraid of the word soap.

Clarifying lotion

The next step is this clarifying lotion from Clinique. I use it in the morning and evening. I use it after applying facial soap. It prepares your skin for your moisturizer and it also removes impurities from the skin. I got number 1 which is for very dry to dry skin, but you can choose this product exactly for your skin type.

Moisturizing cream

Yes, you guess right. Another item is moisturizing cream also from Clinique. I really love this brand in terms of skincare products. It is a bit expensive but it is worth it. Moisturizing your face is the most important thing. I use it after applying lotion, in the morning and evening. This is also for very dry to dry skin, and I love how it keeps your skin smooth all day and night.

Lip balm

My lips are usually very dry, so I have to moisturize them very often. I always have some lip balm in my bag. I have a lot of favorite lip balms, one of them is this EOS balm. It's very easy to apply and it looks pretty cool. Another favorite balm is Carmex or Labello.

Hand cream

You have to moisturize your hands as well, I hate when my hands are dry. I always have some cream in my bag, just in case. I love this one from Garnier, it's very cheap and it keeps your hands moisturized all day. Lately, I'm also obsessed with hand cream from Sportique, you can see it here.

Makeup primer

When I go outside or to the work, I use makeup primer. It helps your foundation last longer and it also protects your skin. This primer from Rimmel has SPF 25 which is always good, especially in summer. You can also use it without your foundation, just to keep your face protected when you want to go outside with no makeup on. If you want to wear makeup, let the primer act for a few minutes and then apply your foundation.

Eye makeup remover

When I'm ready to go sleep or I just don't want to wear makeup anymore, I use this eye makeup remover from Sephora. This is my favorite remover of all, it doesn't irritate your eyes, so for those who have sensitive eyes, it's great. You can also buy a bigger package, it's only up to you.

Makeup remover

This biosource balm to oil deep cleanser and makeup remover from Biotherm I just love. It's so easy to remove your makeup with this. Just soak your skin and apply this product and with circular motions remove your makeup. You can also use it for your eye makeup, which is great. It also lasts very long time, I always have this for about 7-8 months. It's a bit expensive but I would definitely recommend it. My other favorite makeup remover is Take the day off from Clinique, it's very similar to this one, but it's a bit cheaper.

After I remove my makeup, I use my facial soap, lotion, moisturizer, lip balm and hand cream, and here we are back in the beginning.

What about your skincare routine? Do you use any of these products? Let me know!

Hello guys!

I can't believe that December and the whole year is almost over. I had a great year and I hope that next year will be great too. This is also my last post in 2016, so I wish you a Happy New Year guys!

I picked up for you my favorite bits, this time it's not only cosmetics, but things I got for Christmas.

I'll start with my favorite makeup remover. It's called Take the day off and it's from Clinique. This is my third package I guess, I really love how quickly you take your makeup off with it. It is a cleansing balm, so all you need to do is moisten your face and then just apply. You can also use it to remove your eye makeup, but I prefer a classic remover. I use my micellar water from Bioderma now, but I can't wait to use this balm after I finish it.

The next up is this Yankee Candle. You all probably know this candle, so you definitely know how it smells. I got mine for Christmas and this is the scent of Strawberry Buttercream. I have it in the biggest size and it should last 110-150 hours. I love the smell of this candle, it is sweet and pleasant. I also decided to make a collection of Yankee Candles, so let's get started!

Another favorite product is this Castor oil from Soaphoria. And what is castor oil used for? It has a moisturizing effect, eliminates wrinkles and it's good for hair, eyelashes, eyebrows and nails. I bought it mainly because of my eyebrows. You've probably heard about my eyebrows a million times so you know how bad my eyebrows are. I have very thin eyebrows and it just doesn't grow. I use this oil for a month so I can't really tell you if it's better or not but I can tell that my eyebrows grow faster. And what about the packaging!

This brand produces a lot of oils for different things and it's also cheap, so definitely check that out.

Another thing I'm going to talk about are these Liqueur pralines. I don't know what brand it is, I got it for Christmas but I think you can get it in every store. I really love the packaging, it looks quite expensive. There are five chocolates inside the box, some with brown filling and some with white. I love both so much that I ate it right away. Never mind, it's just chocolate.

The next up are these two shower gels with mandarin from Lush and it's called The Olive Branch. I really love the products from Lush, especially because they don't test on animals and it's all handmade. I have these two in a mini version, but I'm thinking about buying the normal one. It smells really nice and it leaves your skin so soft. They also have more scents, so it's only up to you what is best for you.

The last favorite things are these iPhone cases from the brand Wooder. I think it's impossible to get case for iPhone 7 plus, they should produce more cases for this size. But I found this online shop and they had a lot of cases on their website! I wanted to buy some Christmas case so I chose this one with twigs and the another one with marbel. I had the marbel one before when I had my 5s, and I think that marbel is very popular right now, so I have to buy it. Both cases are made of TPU material, so they are flexible. They also have cases for Samsung and Huawei, so definitely check that out.

Hello guys!

Only a month left until Christmas! Do you have a presents for everybody? It's too early to buying presents for me, so I wait for my payment. Now, I'm going to show you my favorite products!

I'll start with this Makeup Removing Micelle Solution from Bioderma. I wasn't a fan of any micellar water, I prefered some cleansing balms more but then my friend recommended me this micellar water and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. It's so easy and quick to take your makeup off and you can also remove your eye makeup with this. I haven't tried it yet, because I have my favorite eye makeup remover, but I love to use it for my face. This one is for sensitive skin, but they also have for different skin types. It doesn't dry your skin which I was afriad of. If you have never tried it, I would definitely recommend it.

The next item is this Eyebrow Pencil from MAC. My favorite pencil from Benefit ran out so quickly, so I was looking for an alternative and I decided to try this one. Graphite is a little different, this one is wider and bevel. I have to admit that I prefer thinner graphite, because my eyebrow is very thin. But I like the shade about this MAC pencil, I got it in Taupe, it's something like grey/brown color. It also has a brush on the other side, which is always handy.

I also have to talk about this Hand Cream from the Czech brand Sportique. I wrote about this brand in my previous post, so if you are interested you can check it out. I got it with a scent of jasmine and it smells amazing. It contains 25% of shea butter, so it's very smooth and easy to apply. It makes your hands very soft all day.

I didn't want to show you this at first, but I am very excited and happy about it, so I have to show you. I wanted a new iPhone for the long time and I finally got it. I was about to buy the iPhone 6s but then I saw this new iPhone 7 and I just had to have it. I got it in Rose Gold and a plus size. I won't talk about it in details, just a quick info. You can choose between 32gb, 128gb and 256gb, I got 128gb, which is enough for me. Ram memory is 3gb, 12 mpx resolution camera, it doesn't have a classic jack which is annoying but I already got used to it. Battery lasts a long time, it's a really good thing because I had to charge my 5s every day, and this one have to be charged for every second or third day. The quality of the photos is amazing, I can't even compare it with my old 5s. To sum it up, I'm very happy that I bought it and definitely recommend it if you are Apple lover.

The next up is this Lash Sensational Mascara from Maybelline, you've probably seen this on my blog million times but I just love this mascara. I really love this type of brush, it makes your lashes so long and curl. It also doesn't smudge, which was the main reason why I hate almost every mascara I've ever had. And it's very cheap, so definitely try this out.

I use this Liquid Facial Soap from Clinique for a year now and I have to say it's amazing. I'm going to do a post about my skincare routine soon, so this is not definitely the last time you hear about it. I have number 1 which is for very dry to dry skin and it really doesn't dry your skin. It leaves your skin very soft and clean. I use it after I remove my makeup to make my skin more clean. You can use it twice a day, in the morning and evening. It also refreshes your skin and prepares it for your makeup.

The last item is my favorite Liquid Camouflage High Coverage Concealer from Catrice which I have finally found! And it was also in sale, which is great but it's cheap anyway. It really has a high coverage and it lasts all day. I use it under my eyes, nose and sometimes on my forehead. It is very similar to Astor concealer but I find this a bit better. This one is more thicker and has a better coverage.

Hello guys!

My usual post at the end of the month is here. I got some new beauty stuff so I have to show you. Let's get started.

I'll start with this Flex&Hold Volume Hairspray from Garnier. I've never had this hairspray before, so I was excited to try it. I love the green cover, there is bamboo extract in it, so it's matching. I also like the smell of it, I had some hairsprays with a very bad smell (some smelled like insect repelent), so this one is really good. I have number 4 which is extra strong but I don't think that the hold is so strong. I had better hairsprays but also worse hairsprays so this is something in the middle. Big plus is that this spray do not stick your hair, so you can brush your hair very easily after using this spray.

Next up is Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Cream. This cream is not new for me, but my previous just ran out so I had to buy a new one. I was thinking about some new cream but I couldn't find the right one and I love this one, so no change for me. Last time I had only 30 ml but now I went for 50 ml. This cream is for very dry to dry skin which is perfect because I have very dry skin. It's very moisturizing and leaves your skin soft. I definitely recommend it if you have dry skin.

Next thing is this Liquid Camouflage High Coverage Concealer from Catrice. I love my previous Astor Perfect Stay Concealer which I used all the time but I heard so many good thing about this one, so I decided to try it. I'm really glad I did, because this concealer is just perfect! The coverage is amazing, the color is also great (got it in shade 010 Porcellain). It's also super blendable.. You can use it for your imperfections on your skin or for highlighting. 

Lately I'm obsessed with lip pencils. I think your lips are not complete without lip pencil. I use it most of the time. Your lip pencil can't be exactly the same color as your lipstick, you can choose some dark color or a different shade. It will look good anyway. Your lips will also look fuller (yeah, Kylie Jenner style..). I like these two shades, the first one is In The Nude from Essence and the second one is Slow from Miss Sporty. These two are very cheap (about one dollar I think) but the quality is pretty good. They have a good pigmentation for that money..

The next item I'm going to show you is this Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm. I love cleansing balms lately! They do all the work for you! You can remove your eye makeup with it, waterproof makeup, matte liquid lipsticks...everything. It is not chipped on your eyes, but I prefer to use my favorite eye makeup remover from Sephora, but you can definitely use this all over your face.

I used Biosource Balm-to-oil from Biotherm before, but I wanted to try something new. This is very similar to Biotherm, but I think this balm from Clinique removes your makeup faster. It also smells better for me, but both are very good.

The next thing is this Dermacol 16H Lip Colour. I'm not going to lie, it lasts all day, literally all day. I wouldn't have believed it, but I was in the cinema with my friend and we had popcorn and coca-cola and she had a red lipstick on her lips and when we came back from the cinema, her lips was exactly the same as at the beginning. So I asked her what she is wearing on her lips and she recommended me this liquid lipstick from Dermacol. Then I tried it and it really works! The only thing that bothers me a bit is the choice of colors. They don't have many colors and the only color I liked was the red and the color I bought. This is number 7, they have 9 shades but some shades are not matte, they have glitters inside. As you can see, this liquid lipstick has two sides. One side (the color side) is matte and the other side (the transparent one) is when you want to add some gloss. I prefer to use only the matte side but it's only up to you.

The last thing is not a cosmetic thing but it's my favorite. I got this watch from the English brand named Abbott Lyon for my birthday (yeah it was on February but I didn't show it to you yet). I really love this brand. They have so many beautiful watches. I was choosing between white and brown watches. At the end I chose this white with gold detailing. This is smooth leather so I was a little bit worried that it will be dirty quickly but when you use a good impregnation for smooth leather, it's very easy to be cleaned. I also love the design of this watch, you can also choose if you want a small or bigger dial. I went for small because I have small hands, so bigger dial would be too big for me. 

There is now 25% off on their website!

Hello guys!

March is almost over so here is another favorite products! I have so many new things this month. I picked for you these 7 items which I want to talk about. Let's get started.

I got some discount coupons from Douglas and it included 2+1 free product from Clinique. I really wanted to use it just because Clinique products are not the cheapest. I decided to buy some new foundation, because my favorite Bourjois healthy mix is running out. I think that products from Clinique are very good quality and once I got a foundation tester I really wanted to try it. I have a very dry skin so I need a moisturizing foundation. Douglas makeup artist recommended me this Moisture Surge in shade 02 (I think it's still dark for me but they didn't have a lighter shade). Actually, this is not foundation but tinted moisturizer but the coverage is pretty good. It also has SPF 15 which is good for summer, especially for me because my skin is very sensitive and will burn quickly in the sun. I also like the smell of it, it smells like my sunscreen. So if you have dry skin I would really recommend it.

The next item I'm going to show you is also for dry skin. It is this Satin makeup base from Dermacol. I used so many primers but I couldn't find the right one for me. I have The Porefessional primer from Benefit, it is probably the best primer I've had but it's very expensive and I think it's more for oily skin. Then I used some primers from Rimmel with the cream composition but it wasn't right for me. My makeup didn't last all day and it was too heavy for my skin. I read a few tips for some good primer for dry skin and this Satin base had a good reviews so I decided to try it. And it's really amazing! It's so light and easy to apply. Your skin is really like satin after this. My makeup also last much longer and it doesn't dry out my skin.

I can't forget to mention this Velvet Stick Matt Lip color from Essence. I saw it in a drugstore and I liked the color so I just bought it. I thought that it would be more like brown-pink color but it is more like purple-pink color. I don't mind because it looks nice on your lips. The only disadvantage is that this Velvet Stick is too dry. I have a dry lips and it dries out my lips even more. But I think if you put some lip balm under it, it's gonna be alright.

I think you can't create a perfect smoky eyes without a good blending brush. I was doing my eyeshadows with my BH cosmetics brush, but I think it's not directly on it. So I got this Makeup Revolution Pro Blending Brush no. E103. I think this brush does a good job but the disadvantage is that the bristles are very coarse. When you use it on your eyes it is uncomfortable. It blends your eyeshadows well but I prefer something with softer bristles. I have a brush from Makeup Revolution for contouring and the bristles aren't so coarse. So maybe it is the only brush which has the bristles like that...

This is my favorite nail polish of all the time. I love Chanel and everything from it. This is Le Vernis Nail Colour 533 April. Oh my God, I love the shade so much. I think that every shade from Chanel is amazing but this is just number one. I had to have it and it was on sale! Who could resist? I definitely plan to buy more shades. This nail polish is also very pigmented, so one layer is enough. It also lasts so much longer than some drugstore nail polish. And the packaging is just amazing!

The next item on the list is this amazing higlighter. It is Lost in Galaxy from Douglas. I read about it in a magazine and then I went to Douglas to try it. I tried it and I had to buy it! Pigmentation is great, it reminds me Copacabana Illuminator from Nars (I need to try it as well). Just one layer and you get a beautiful highlighting, then you just blend it with your fingers or brush. And it's also very cheap for that quality!

The last item is for hair. I read about it in a magazine as well and I decided to try it. It's Toni&Guy Sea Salt Texturising Spray. It is a spray that creates natural waves. Just spray it on your hair and using your hands create natural waves. It looks very cool and a bit messy but I really like that style. It's also very quick and easy when you don't have much time to do your hair. You can also use a curling iron to create waves and then spray it into your hair to make it look more natural.

Hello guys!

It's almost December! I can't believe how quickly time passes. So with that, I'm bringing to you another favorite products for November. Let's get started.

The first favorite thing I have here for you is this Bourjois Healthy mix foundation. This foundation was recommended by one blogger, so I decided to try it too. I really loved my Loreal True Match foundation but they changed the cover of it and I heard that they changed the composition as well and the coverage is not so great. So I got this Healthy Mix. I didn't know which shade to choose but at the end I went for No. 53 Light Beige. 

If I had to compare these two foundation, I would say that True Match has a lower consistency against Healthy Mix. Also I think that True Match is better for my skin tone. Healthy Mix is better for oily skin I think but it can be used for dry skin as well. And what is better on Healthy Mix? It smells amazing! I really hate the smell of foundations but this is really amazing! It smells like fruit! This foundation also has a good coverage and it is easy to apply. I would recommend it.

I used my old makeup remover for 3 years I guess. So it was definitely time for change. I like oil-based makeup removers more than classic milky removers. I couldn't find the right one until I found this Biosource Balm-to-oil by Biotherm. It was also recommended by blogger so I was about to try it. It is amazing! It is perfect for my skin, I have a very dry skin so this oily cleanser and makeup remover is perfect for me. You can also remove your eye makeup with it. 

The next item I mentioned before in Makeup Revolution obsession post. You can check it out. But it is my favorite item so I want to tell you about it again. I have a really bad eyebrows so it is hard to make it looks perfect. I got this Focus and fix eyebrow shaping kit from Makeup Revolution. This is my favorite brand and I always like trying new things. This kit contains 3 different brown colors and one fusing wax. It also contains tweezers, eyebrow brush and mirror. The colors are good pigmented so you can create beautiful brows. I got this kit in Light-Medium but it is also available in Medium-Dark.

The next favorite item is also from Makeup Revolution. It is this lip pencil with sharpener. I really love the color of it. It is shade Vamp and if you buy a lipstick in the same shade, it is amazing combination. This lipliner is very pigmented so you can fill in your lips with it. I also love the idea of sharpener in the lid. It is available in many colors.

My last thing from previous post is Focus and fix eye primer also from Makeup Revolution. When I work 12 hours I want to keep my eyeshadows in place. I really hate when I have a blurry eyeshadows. So I bought this eye primer. I tried it and I have to say it does a really good job. Your eyeshadows are in place all day. I really don't know how could I do it without it. It also has a nice color, this is in brighten version so it brightens your eyes nicely.

Next item is this Outrageous curl mascara from Sephora. I mentioned this mascara in my previous post (I think it was Favorite October products) and this mascara is amazing. But it has some disadvantage as well. This mascara is very wet and clumpy and it tends to blur. When you wear it all day, you can expect that it will be blurred under your eyes and over your eyelid. Otherwise, this mascara perfectly separates your eyelashes and makes them very long. I also love the small brush so it is so much easier to apply. 

And my last favorite item is this Clinique Dramatically different moisturizing cream. I heard about this cream from one blogger and I just had to try it. As I said before, I have a very dry skin and this moisturizer is just perfect! It is such a shame that I haven't used it before. I think there are three different sizes of this cream. This is the smallest one, but I think it's enough for now. I just wanted to try it and maybe then I will buy a larger version.
