Products for creating fresh&simple weekend look

Well hello there! Hope you are having a great time.The weekend is quickly approaching and I decided to show you my top makeup products for creating that fresh and simple look for my free time.

The rule is: Less is more unless when it comes to highlighters 😊 I just love highlighters and some glow always boosts my mood.

Base

I don’t use foundations or BB creams during the weekend, because I like to give my skin a break. For a more even and polished look, I use a good old Porefessional primer from Benefit. It keeps my T-zone away from being too shinny and hides my pores a bit.

Concealer is a must, I always like to hide my dark circles. This is a crucial step for a more rested look for me (and cooling under-eye gel patches). My current favorite is from Mastertouch from Max Factor.

Cheeks

I am still obsessed with Dior’s gel glow stick blush. When this baby goes bad I’m going to finally buy their iconic Rosy glow powder blush.

It is very hard to choose which highlighter to use, my collection contains 6 of them. The most ˝innocent˝ and neutral looking is Dandelion Twinkle from Benefit. I often use it also on my eyelids instead of eyeshadow or just on my brow bone for that typical highlighting.

Eyes

I am not a big fan of mascaras, because I have very sensitive eyes. But when I decide to wear it, it is usually Amazing effect mascara from ArtDeco. It is quite basic, with a small and simple wand without all that marketing fuss. It offers great lengthening and some volume.

For the light definition of my brows, I like to use Sourcil precision from Bourjois.

Lips

Since we need to wear masks so often, I tend to skip special lip products and usually just use my lip balm. I am a fan of shiny lips, but right now my I like to emphasize my cheeks.

I believe this is everything I use. Hope you will all have a wonderful weekend!

Wishes

It is time for another wish list or as I like to say it – things that recently caught my attention. Honestly, this is just a small fraction, but I’m too embarrassed to everything out there. The center of the list represents a linen lounge shirt from Intimissimi . I bought one last year and I am super pleased with it. It keeps me cool during these crazy tropical nights and feels very comfortable. I also very much enjoy their silk shirts, but the buttons are simply too annoying sometimes … Now, let’s go up and right to Dior. Another blush? Yes, please! Dior yet again reformulated their famous Backstage Rosy Glow blushes and added some new shades. I always desperately wanted to buy the lavender one, but it was not available in our country. But now something completely different caught my attention – muted, peachy, beige shade – Toffee . I swatched it already and it is pretty, but packed with gold glitter, so I need to try it again to be fully convinced. Smooth&Glow...

Dior Forever Glow Maximizer - Peachy

Apparently this year I have been obsessed with highlighters and blushes because it is time to review another one – Forever Glow Maximizer by Dior in the shade PEACHY. If the Star Glow Filter is very subtle, this is not. It is not tacky and can be beautifully blended, but it’s a real highlighter that serves its purpose. Peachy – light, golden peach with gold and pink shimmer. On my light skin tone, I often wear this as a blush, because I think it works better on me like this. It gives that slight amount of warmth to my face and a subtle golden sheen. It can be built up, but it can also look too much. Now when I’m getting a bit darker I love to put it on top of my bronzer or/and use it as an eyeshadow to achieve a light monochromatic summer look. Indoor light Sunlight This is a great and versatile product, but I still prefer powder versions of Dior highlighters, they are just easier to work with and blend more effortlessly. I think that with liquid highlighters you always need to be...
