My Beauty Favorites

01.16.2018 by Lenka // 3 Comments

my_beauty_favorites_hazy_secrets

Hello guys!

I hope you all have a great day. The weather surprised us with snow last few days so we´re staying warm and cozy with a hot cup of tea snuggled under blankets.

Today I want to share with you my current beauty favorites. Most of them I use on regular basis few months already and all of them are super affordable. I don´t like to experiment and I always try to stick with my beauty routine and colors I usually wear. I´m not a big fan of trying new products, because I have very sensitive skin. So when I have some products that my skin is comfortable with, I keep them. The same thing is with scents. I´m very sensitive to perfumes. I always use subtle and feminine scents that go with my overall style. The most important thing for me when choosing a perfume is that I must not smell the scent after few minutes. Otherwise it gives me incredible headaches.

The products are listed below and most of them are available in drugstores. What are your favorite products? Share with others in the comments below or on my social media accounts.

  1. Catrice HD Liquid Coverage Foundation (010 Light Beige) This makeup is great, it doesn´t crease, covers perfectly and sets on your face like your second skin so you don´t have to put on a setting powder.
  2. Catrice Liquid Camouflage High Coverage Concealer (005 Light Natural) This concealer is best I ever had. It covers everything!
  3. Catrice Multi Matt Blush (020 La-Lavender) This blush is very beautiful and looks natural on your skin.
  4. Catrice The Nude Blossom Collection Eyeshadow Palette (010 Blossom ´N Roses) I love this eyeshadow palette, though it is not my “go-to”, but when we have some special occassions it makes your eyes look amazing. It contains a lot of shimmery shades, I use some of them as a highlighter.
  5. Essence Lipstick (08 Eternal Beauty) This lipstick is the perfect pink nude. This is my perfect shadow, because my lips are naturally a bit darker.
  6. Essence Lipliner (08 Big Proposal) This lipliner is the perfect match for the lipstick.
  7. Oriflame Tender Care This lip balm is my forever must-have. It is life saver for dry skin in this weather.
  8. Oriflame Eau de Toilette (My Naked Truth) This scent is very subtle and feminine and I don´t mind wearing it every day, even if I´m at home.
  9. Golden Rose Color Sensation Lip Gloss (127) I really love this lipgloss and it nicely matches my lipstick, even though it is slightly darker shade.

The beauty trends I´ll never try

09.13.2017 by Lenka // 2 Comments

the-beauty-trends-ill-never-try-hazy-secrets

The beauty world is an incredible place where you can become a different person like with a use of a magic wand. The beauty trends are changing with a blink of an eye, not speaking of the amount of beauty brands and products I have a hard time to keep up with.

When it comes to trends I have to admit that I´m trying to stick to the routine that works for me. I´m pretty stubborn to try new trends. I have very pale skin, dark eyes, and hair, so I have to be very careful to keep balance in my makeup.

So here are few beauty trends you definitely won´t see me trying:

  1. Contouring/Highlighting – The hot topic for a couple of years now. Honestly, when I see the perfectly contoured face everywhere on Instagram, I always think how they can put so many products on their faces and still look amazing. I´m trying to stick to the motto “Less is more”, so I´m saying no to this trend.
  2. Bold brows – Another trend everyone´s doing, except for me. I´m not against the perfect arched and filled brows, but mine are full already. I prefer natural look brushed with a bit of brow gel for some polished shape.
  3. Baking – to be honest, I really don´t understand this trend. I hope I´m not the only one. Beauty products and makeup are high quality now. Foundations are so perfect that you don´t have to even use a setting powder because it sets like it´s your second skin. So if I´m missing something, please explain.
  4. Crazy colored eyes/eyeliners – the ’90s are gone but crazy colored eyes and eyeliners are still here. I can´t even imagine stepping on the street with this kind of makeup. If it´s anyone´s way to express themselves, then it´s fine, but I´ll rather stay at my classics – brown hues, pinks and champagnes.
  5. Fur/pierced nails
  6. Faux freckles
  7. Lip overlining
  8. Glitter hair

The last four trends are without comments because the only thing that´s on my mind about them is “Why?”. I mean all those trends are usually temporary or seasonal, and they are beautiful on runway models, but most people won´t apply them in real life. So wouldn´t I, because I wouldn´t feel and look like myself.

What are beauty trends that you are not into?

My Fall Beauty Wishlist

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10

If you have been following me, you know that fall is my absolute favorite season of the year. But it comes with rough weather and our skins suffer. In this time of year, I usually have a problem with dry skin. So this is the best time to update your skincare routine. For makeup, this season can be a bit tricky. We usually opt for heavier foundations, creamier lipsticks, and earthy toned palettes. So I put up together a wish-list to stock up with these few beauty essentials this fall.

 

  1. Rich moisturizer – the proper skin hydration is undeniable when you want to avoid the dry and dull skin. Applying a good moisturizer on a daily basis will give you a radiant, glowing skin.
  2. Lip balm – take your tube of your favorite lip balm with you wherever you go to an instant relief and hydration for your dry areas as lips, cuticles, and elbows.
  3. Natural skin – go for natural, flawless skin with CC Cream or not so heavy foundation. I really love this one from Yves Rocher, because it perfectly balances your skin undertone, whether it´s beige, neutral or rose. Mainly when the skin is prone to redness in chilly weather.
  4. Frostbite cheeks – add an extra touch of redness to your cheeks to enhance the color of the frostbite when it´s chilly outside.
  5. Berry lipstick – deep, berry or rich plum stained lipstick is the perfect color for the upcoming season. Pick a long-lasting lipstick and leave the rest of your makeup neutral for an instant pop of color.
  6. Nude lipstick – If you´re not one for bold lips, go for the barely there creamy formula. Nudes and neutrals are now extremely popular and it fits all hair and eye colors.
  7. Earth-tone palette – the warm, earthy colors like brown, orange, burgundy are a must for this season.
  8. Glitter & Metallic – metallics were a thing last year, and they are not giving up even this season. Stock up with metallic eyeshadows or glitter eye liners. I really love the color of this Essie nail polish. But remember, balance is the key.
  9. Clarisonic – the clear skin is a must not only in this season but in this chilly weather, it needs a little bit more love and care. This is the perfect tool to get rid of dead skin cells. It cleans and softens the skin literally in seconds.
  10. Signature fragrance – what´s better season to come with a new signature scent than fall. Look for heavier, earthier scents with hints of vanilla, or like this Jo Malone English Pear and Freesia fragrance for a warm fall vibe.

 

Are you ready for fall?
