My 2 stars from Make Up For Ever Primers!!

Image
One or two months ago, Make Up For Ever launched their new line in primers, they produced around 10 of them at once. they have different colors and functions. they are divided into two categories according to their function: 1- priming the skin  2- equalizing the skin  Priming the face means improving the texture of your skin, hiding fine lines and pores, giving hydration to dry areas or nourishing the skin overall. and that is the job of :smoothing primer.  Mattifying Primer , hydrating primer and nourishing primer Equalizing the face means correcting the skin color, hiding redness or dullness, reducing imperfections or correcting the undertones of the skin. and that is the job of  Redness Correcting Primer,  Radiant Primer in all colors. My absolute Favorites are Smoothing Primer and radiant primer in yellow. I have minor fine lines around my mouth and I sometimes notice some pores on my cheeks area so the smoothing primer solved...

Anastasia Beverly Hills Banana Powder VS MAC Emphasize powder

Image
The most famous highlighting powders from both brands. Banana is yellow-ish powder where Emphasize is a strike white powder. Which one is better? When to use each? I own both of them and I spent quiet good time with each. I have to set my concealer or it will crease as hell. According to the sizes, Mac powder is larger pan than Banana powder.  You can notice the difference in colors. I used to use MAC Emphasize all the time but once I got the Banana powder I started switching between both of them as follows: - Day time : Banana Powder  - Night Time: Emphasize Powder - Day Time Noticeable Highlight: Extra Banana Powder with little bit of Emphasize Powder - Night Time Brightening : Extra Emphasize with little bit of Banana Powder My philosophy is that it is hard to wear white powder through day time in the sun. I shows like you are wearing tons of highlighting powder, however, when using the banana powder, the yellow tone in it set the unde...

Two Products That Changed my skin dramatically

Image
Hello Beauties: In this post I am going to share with you the perfect two products to polish your skin. By that I mean that these products are meant to add something to the "good-condition" skin you must already have. Basically, Those two products are not wonders, they can not clear the acne prone or the highly pigmented skin. They can only - in my opinion- add the extra glow, smoothness, firmness, softness you desire. I have normal to dry skin. I do not suffer from serious issues. I have a breakout once in a while, Some dryness around the mouth area, some redness around the nose area and that is all. Those products are: Perricon MD Blue Plasma  Sanitas Vitamin C Serum I started using  Perricon MD Blue Plasma  one year ago. The texture of this product is little bit thick, it is between the serum and the moisturizer texture. It does not smell very well, but it is not a problem since the smell vanishes after a while. When I started using this product I did n...

Sigma Vs Zoeva Vs Morphe

Image
OH MY GOD.. I can not believe that finally there is other brands for make up brushes waaaay cheaper than MAC and Sigma with the same performance and the same quality! This is heaven on earth!! I used to use all MAC brushes at first, then I started using sigma. It is true that sigma brushes are excellent quality and they have different designs, however, every time I wanted to order - the very basic brushes- my cart turns out to cost me a fortune. Not to mention that copper or gold colors are more expensive!.  Despite all the expenses I bought all sigma brushes and they worked wonderful, except one which is the F80 brush, I had little issue with it but the company replace it for me ( I like companies who stay behind their products!).. Then I met  Zoeva  !!! UUGGHHHHH!! I ordered the "romantic copper" set for about US 78$ only, I received 12 eye brushes. They are like HEAVEN, soft hair, great at application or blending, many designs for the brushes...

Sanitas Vitamin C Serum Review

Image
Totally Worth it. I am a huge fan of serums. They feel like they are the intensive care and treatment of a regular moisturizer. They are  must in my skin care regime. I  totally find differences when using them. This Sanitac Vitamin C Serum is a miracle. Firs of All, vitamin C is great for the skin since it stimulates and helps in creating collagen for firmer skin and much younger look. It is also powerful agent to fight mature and pre-mature aging, wrinkles and fine lines. It helps also with brightening and discoloration. It gives you the baby skin you desire. And in this serum, Vitamin C is packed in it in maximum levels. So little drop could give you the daily need of vitamin C for your skin. So it is worth the money as of do not need to use alot of it at once.  The texture of this serum is very unique. It feels like nourishing oil. Once applied you can feel the hydration in the skin. IT sticks like glue. Also it gives the look of a greasy chicken ...

My Morphe Brushes Collection

Image
Morphe Brushes, every you-tuber's, MUA's and blogger's current favorite brand. Not only because it is very high quality and pigmented products, but also because it is very affordable. Anyone could get a Morphy Product. I have known Morphy since 2013, but after the famous you-tuber Jaclyn Hill discovered the brand, Morphe stroked and started to bloom more and more. They started to have higher sales rates and more money cash flow. It became very obvious to track the changes in their website or marketing plans. Morpgy brushes are awesome.I like their brushes ALOT. I m not  a big fan of their eye shadows, they do fine to me. But the brushes OMG! very high quality, very smooth and great in application. The wide range of their makeup brushes is very exciting! It is literally like brushes heaven. Who does not like makeup brushes! These are my brushes coleection, I know they are few but as I was into sigma brushes and Zoeva, I happen to have all brushes needed for each make...

Sanitas Brightening Peel Pads

Image
I heard about these pads from one of my friends. They are truly hard to find and I searched alot of websites to order this product. Finally, after many trials I found one and I ordered and I got mine yesterday. Basically I needed those pads to tighten my pores on my cheeks. So yesterday I removed my make up, cleansed my face with Bioderma Facial wash, tonned my face with Botanics Rose Water Face Mist, and used the Sanitas Brightening Pads. When you open the jar you find circular pads stacked over each others, their texture is little bit rough, they have diamond shapes all over the pad. The pad is soaked with the acids you can feel its dampness. So I started wiping my face with it, it felt refreshing at first like you are rolling some mint on your face, Then after few seconds I felt little stings on my face, mostly from the edges of the diamond shape textures on the pad. I also felt some heat on my face - nothing that is painful-. The pad dried completely and I waited ...
