DM Haul (Drugstore/Drogerie)

Hiiii,

Here I am again! I was at DM some day again and I wanted to show you what I bought this time.

 

Starting with makeup!

 
I repurchsed one of the maybelline Fit me foundation sticks, this time I decided to take another number, #250 sun beige instead of #120 classic ivory, because believe it or not I got a little tan and now I feel like #120 is too light for me. These sticks are so great, the formula is quite nice, it has a good coverage and is easy to blend with the fingers or makeup brush :)
I also restocked my favorie pen that I like to use for my eyebrows. I'm talking about the essence longlasting eye pencil in 'hot chocolate'. It's just the perfect color for my eyebrows.
I also bought one more Astor soft sensation lipcolor butter in #011 feling feline. That would be my 3rd 'chubby stick' by Astor.
I also needed to buy new tweezers because I lost mine and I needed to do my eyebrows so badly and since this one was so cheap, not even 2€ as I remember, it does the job quite right.
And last but not least I got turned on by the new Astor lipsticks from the Heidi Klum collection. The Dorient recommended one of the a few days ago and so I had to take a closer look at these and I was quite impressed by them too. Very pigmented while swatching! I haven't put any of them on yet but since it's almost summer, this summer screams for bright lipstick colors. :D

 

A little swatch of the 3 colors I bought! The Dorient mentionned that she thought ARTY looks similar to MAC Impassionated and it comes really close to it thought. I do have bouth too. If you wanna see a comparison of those two colors just let me know and I might put up some swatch pictures. I think I picked the 3 best colors from this collection and if I also like them on my lips I might buy a few more.


For my nails I had to buy some nailpolish remover since I was running out of it. I bought one with sponge, love these to remove glitter nail polish and I bought a simple one for quick removement. I also picked up 3 colors from the brand P2, two of the new satin supreme colors and a green one from the regular collection.


I bought hair removing cream for my legs cuz in summer I don't like to shave them since I always get little pimples on my tights and I find it easy to avoid this buy using removement cream plus this make them even a bit tighter. Bought my favorite tooth paste and I also bought a handlotion that has shea butter and argan oil in it. I might have said it a 100 times so far but I have really dry hands and it's sometimes hard to keep them moistrized over the whole day since I often forget to put hand cream on them. So by buying a hand lotion with a pump I find it easier to use this after using my regular hand soap. ^^


 

I went back to an old favorite of mine that I always bought back then when we had Schlecker's in Luxembourg (they are closed now).  And I bought already 2 cuz these are not very big and I wanted a little stock of them cuz I decided to not use the bebe young care and rexona deodorant that I normally use. I don't know if you have already heard of the big scandal lately in the news. Almost every deodorant has aluminium in them and this substance can cause cancer. And that's why I won't use them anymore!!!!


I also grapped a bit of food at DM. Bought 3 fitness bar with vanilla-strawberry  and a beetroot-horseradish cream. Had to buy this one since I was so impressed by the color and already saw someone on instagram using this one, that I had to have it for myself. BTW these fitness bars are by far the best I've ever tried. They were only 50 cents one, I think next time I'll grab a bunch more ;)

That's it for today! ^^

Celebrity Inspired Make-up Look: Kristen Stewart!


HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

Helllooooooo welcome to my blog! From now on we are writing the year 2013 and this is my first post for this year :) 
It's a Kristen Stewart inspired make-up look.

 

Some months ago, I actually saw Nicole from Pixiwoo doing this look underneath and had to try it out myself since I recently got to buy mac's cranberry color she basically used to creat this look. (Find her video HERE)


Before

 

After


I took my hair out of my hair bun and left them the way they were since Kristen's hair always looks like she just got out of bed and forgot to brush her hair. It's a dirty look which suits her well and is one of her trademarks. And it was also fun taking those pictures, you can see her often with her mouth a little bit open when she is trying to pose on the red carpet and that's what I went for too.

Face:
Make up for ever HD foundation in #120
essence stay all day long lasting concealer in #20 soft beige

Eyes:
Maybelline color tattoo #40 Permanent Taupe (as a base)

Urban Decay Blackout in the out corner

I even tried to slightly draw some freckles on my nose and my cheeks, I hope you can see them.



Closer look



So this was my first blogpost of the year, many more to come ;)

And I hope you all have a great year, with lots success and the most important thing stay healthy!!!!!

Much love,

A different lipstick as you probably know and use

Let me introduce you to the Astor Perfect Stay (transferproof lip tint & care) "Lipstick"
#201 Red Energy
It's definitely a different lipstick than you probably know and use.
All I can say about this product is: no transfer, no smudging - all day!!!!! And the Balm gives you extra comfort & shine. So, lipstick and balm, 2 in 1.
How to use it? Well there are 2 steps. First step: apply the red color.

 Second step: apply the anti-dryness Balm. I know, I know, VERY simple. And you don't have to worry that it will break off like an ordinary lipstick AND you can draw you lip lines easier with this product

And here you can see how it looks on me.



When you first use it, it feels very strange but then it becomes comfort and you won't miss any of your other lipsticks.

Also I need to include that the price for this product is only ±4,50€

Astor nail polish BLUE, BLUER, THE BLUEST OF ALL TIME!

This is the nail color I am currently wearing!
It's practicly a NEON blue, it also reminds me of clear dark ocean water. It's an eyecatcher with a WOW effect.
You can say it's practicly the same color like the background of this post!
The only thing that doesn't satisfate me is that the nail polish breaks off on the ends pretty quickly, it doesn't have a really long lasting but it's nice for 2-3 days and maybe 4-5 with a good clear top coat!
It's by ASTOR Fash'n Studio (Astor Paris/Made in Spain) and Heidi Klum is the new face of this brand.
The nail polish bottle looks similar to the Sephora one and I think the design is simple, handy and nice. It's only a 6ml bottle but I can promise you 6ml of pur fun ;)
