Time for another rendition of "In my makeup bag this week"!
As you can see below, I'm slowly replacing my fail-safe and/or wintery shades for more... season appropriate stuffs:
So, my look lately consists of: a Me Me Me blush in Coral (boy those are pigmented!), The Body Shop Chocomania lip butter, the double ended liquid & pencil eyeliner which was a freebie with this month's Company magazine (yes, really, I do use products like these from time to time and this is surprisingly quite good for a magazine freebie), MAC Ever Hip lipstick and L'oreal Color Infallible eyeshadow in Sahara Treasure.
Bright and simple! Swatches below:
Two words in regards to the Company magazine eyeliner: look at the pigmentation of that liquid end! And yes, the pencil end is very very sheer (and quite hard), but still works when you want to add a little smokeyness near your lashline. In any case, this is a handy little duo to have (especially when I didn't have to pay for it).
I'm leaving you with a couple of snaps from last week!
So, what have you been using and loving lately?
Alert: It's my 3 year blogging anniversary very very very soon, so keep your eyes peeled for a mini giveaway! :)

@fashionable.gr: Σε ευχαριστω για τα καλα σου λογια! Ελπιζουμε οτι θα προσελκυσει το ενδιαφερον και πως καθε κοπελα θα βρει κατι χρησιμο! :) xx
DeleteAlright, I think I'll spend the next hour browsing at Company's website! Sigh, all UK magazines offer so much inspiration- while ours are falling behind in what seems like a decade! :(
ReplyDeleteOh, is there an emoticon that translates to "eyes wide open"? That's how I was like when I looked at the Sahara Treasure swatch!!! Wait, lemme guess: it's not sold in Greece, right? Pfff...
xx
@Evi: Yes, agreed, our publications don't show that same mood to reinvent themselves like their foreign counterparts!
DeleteAs for Sahara Trasure, good news! Apparently Hondos stocked it right after I came back from the Uk (lol), atm the shade selection of the Infallibles is pretty darn good!

Hi Tina... I tag you to do the 'get to know me' tag... please check that out. If you don't have time to do it, at least read a little about me! :P

@Jacq: Thank you dear, I can't promise u anything tho (I've done so many of these personal info tags and writing about me is the hardest thing to do)! xxx
DeleteIt's always nice to see flowers in bloom and buds/leaves coming out on trees :)
ReplyDeleteOMG the L'oreal Sahara Treasure looks awesome! I love how it looks like gold foil.
Definitely the Company liquid eyeliner looks really pigmented which is great. Our magazines here in Canada don't have any makeup freebies unfortunately - I wish they did!
