Over the past few days I did some spring-appropriate make-up shopping!
Here's what I got:
Mac pro eye makeup remover: I opted for this water-based solution, since my previous dual-phase remover by Bourjois made my eyelashes fall in triplets! AND it caused me some nasty milia spots...
TBS Moisture Foundation SPF 15: I couldn't tolerate any longer my oil-free foundation by TBS, so it was a good chance to try out a different formula. This one promises light to medium coverage with a dewy finish. We shall se how it performs on my combination skin ;)
Radiant lip pencil in 06-Salmon: I'm in LOVE with this shade! A bright lemonade pink, that's how I would describe it- not exactly coral, not thoroughly pink... Am I making any sense here? I pair it with Elf's Hypershine gloss on top and it instantly brighens up my complexion! Oh, and it glides beautifully on the lips. I highly recommend it!
TBS Metallic eye definer in Glowing Amethyst: I was partly dissapointed in this eye pencil; the colour is gorgeous but sadly it doesn't show up on the waterline, if worn alone. However, I can make it work on top of a black kohl pencil.
TBS Baked eye colour in Jade: these two shades are a combination of green with blue hues and let me tell you, if you're brown eyed like me, these colours are bound to make your eyes pop! I can see myself using it a lot during summer...
Have you done any spring make-up shopping recently?
Oh and by the way, does anyone know whether Mac skincare items are eligible for the Back-2-Mac programme?

hello, your spring makeup looks nice.
ReplyDeleteI think that anything plastic goes back2 mac.
I bought again viva cindy!
I had a baked eyeshadow from tbs same colour has yours but it does not last on me even using a primer. I exchange it with a friend for a blush of the same collection in coral and is gorgeus a bit sheer but buildable the colour.love the blush
ReplyDelete@andreana, thanks, that's great news!
ReplyDeleteI love the colour of Viva cindy but that LE thing puts me off :(
@Beauty shades, oh no, really? That's bad! I only wore it once and it did crease- but then again, the primer I'm currently using is not that great at keeping eyeshadows in place. I must test this duo with a good primer...
oh definitely do a review on the MAC eye makeup remover, please! i'm in search for the right eye make up remover. i'm currently using a dual phase remover by sephora (a free sample). it's the first time using a dual phase.
ReplyDeleteOh don't worry, I'll do a proper review ;)
ReplyDeletePersonally speaking, so far I've had bad luck with those dual-phased formulas... I'm still in search of a HG eye make-up remover!
Με γεια ολα!
ReplyDeleteΗ σκια φαινεται πολυ ομορφο χρωμα οπως κ το μολυβακι για τα χειλη..

Ανυπομονώ για το review σου για το foundation του body shop! Εχω κι εγω μεικτό δερμα και εχω βαρεθει τα oil free foundations! Ψαχνω για κατι πιο dewy!Οπότε πάνω στην ωρα! :) Δεν ειναι οντως πολυ ωραια τα ip-liners της radiant? Εχω κι εγω τη συγκεκριμενη απόχρωση και ειναι φοβερή! Με'γεια σου!
ReplyDelete@λειντι ντι, α δεν το έχω δοκιμάσει ακόμα με nudes- ουυ, φαντάζομαι ότι θα προκύπτει ένα milky coral χρώμα, καλό!!!
ReplyDelete@dimitra, ναι κι εγώ βαρέθηκα τα oil-free foundations! Eίπα να δοκιμάσω κάτι διαφορετικό, μετά από το πρόσφατο hype των αντίστοιχων Revlon Photoready ή Mac Face&Body ;)

ReplyDeletebut i saw in an ad body shop's bronzing collection and that dry oil they had, looked grrreat. and it can't be expensive, i mean it's from bodyshop....
@Blushingloves yes salmon lip liner is amazing! I was surprised by the quality of the greek lip liners, too...
