My February Favourites

Unbenannt #15

1. Nivea - Blueberry Lip Butter
I think I've written about the Lip Butters from Nivea before on this blog, but I just had to mention this one in particular, again. This product basically smells like a blueberry muffin! It's amazing! 
Of course, it also does a really good job in hydrating your lips.

2. ZARA - Parka With Zippers
Actually, the jacket I own looks a bit different to the one in the picture. When you click the link, you'll see my exact jacket. The material is similar to what one would use for a rain jacket. 
As I bought this jacket I didn't think that I would use it as often as I do, but it's just so practical, since it's light weight and keeps you warm at the same time.

3. Sigma - F80 Flat Kabuki
I love this makeup brush so much! I use this everyday to apply my foundation and it always looks flawless afterwards. It's just so easy to apply this way and even easier to blend with it.
In general, I find Sigma brushes always have an amazing quality!

4. Chia seeds
Chia seeds are considered a superfood, because of all the nutrients and benefits you get from eating it. 
I mostly mix them into my porridge and have that, together with some fruit, for breakfast, but you can also mix them with water and then you'll end up with something that looks similar to a pudding, which also tastes quite good.
Chia seeds tend to be a bit expensive in stores, but if you like to eat healthy and you haven't tried them before, definitely go check them out! 

5. ZARA - Fringed Geometric Jacquard Scarf
Around this time of the year, I'm always wearing scarves, so I had to include one into my February Favourites. This particular one is from Zara and I think the pattern is beautiful! Even though, the scarf isn't very colourful, it still ads that "extra something" to an outfit, which I love!

Little Fashion Haul

Yesterday I had to run some errands in munich, so I decided to have a look around the shops before heading back home again and as you can probably already tell I found a few new accessoires.
The first item I bought is a small handbag from ZARA. I personally think it looks really elegant and crisp.
I also decided to get a new pair of sunglasses in H&M, which I will definitely take with me on my vacation to Florida. The design is just so gourgeous!
Lastly I picked up two jewelry pieces at Brandy Melville, a ring and a necklace. Brandy Melville always has such amazing jewelry and accessoires! I love how these pieces are edgy and dainty at the same time!
Here are the pictures of the items I purchasd:

My Everyday Makeup Routine




I know it has been quite a while, since the last time I wrote a blog post, but now that my exams are finally over, I'll have more time for blogging!

In this blog post I will show you my Everyday Makeup Routine and every single step of the process that comes with it.
Here's an overview of the products that I use on a daily basis: 
                                                                             

1. L'Oréal Paris Skin Perfection Advanced Correcting Serum:
This product I use as a moistruizer, a luminizer and a base for my makeup all at once. I love the way it hydrates my face, but I've also heard of people breaking out because of it... I think it really depends on your skin type.

2. L'Oréal Paris Infallible Foundation:
I just recently got this foundation and I love it! It covers all of my blemishes and it lasts for a very long time, too. It basically does everything you would want from a foundation.

3. L'Oréal True Match Powder:
As it turns out, I use a lot of L'Oréal products! 
I've been using this powder for about 2 years now, maybe even longer. It's perfect for setting your foundation and keeping your face matte during the day. This powder is definitely the best one that I've tried so far.

4. MAC Pro Longwear Blush, Stay Pretty:
I love this shade, especially in the fall and winter time, because it gives me just the perfect amount of colour to not make me look dead! :D Of course the quality is amazing (I mean it's MAC...) and I feel like this blush will last me for a very long time, since I've been using it for months and I haven't even hit pan, yet.
Since I usually don't wear a bronzer or a highlighter on a day to day basis, this is great alternative and it keeps everything nice and simple.

5. Maybelline Master Shape Brow Pencil:
Actually, I don't really need a brow pencil, since I only have a little scar, which caused a gap in my eyebrows, that I have to fill in. So, I can't exactly say I'm an expert when it comes to eye brows... if that makes sense lol. 
I don't really have a lot to say about this product. It basically does it's job! 

6. Catrice Lash & Brow Designer - Shaping And Conditioning Gel:
I'm not sure if the brand "Catrice" sells their products anywhere else than in Germany, but just like with the brow pencil, I don't really have that much to say about it, since I actually do have brows lol. All in all, it's a good product and you definitely get your money's worth, because it's so cheap. It costs hardly anything.

7. Maybelline The One by One Volum' Express Mascara:
In general, I love all of the mascaras, that Maybelline has to offer. I am constantly trying out new mascaras (mostly from the drugstore) and in my opinion, Maybelline definitely has the best mascaras. 
This one really adds length and volume to my lashes. If you also love the mascaras from Maybelline, definitely go check this one out!

8. EOS sweet mint lip balm:
I always moisturize my lips before applying any sort of lip product. It mostly varies, but at the moment I'm really liking the EOS lip balms. In my opinion the minty one is the best!

9. NYX Butter Gloss Éclair
This has definitely got to be my go-to lip product, because it's just such a gorgeous nude colour. It's like your lips but better (kinda lol). 
Even if you don't like the colour, still go check out these  butter glosses. They are just so creamy and long lasting!


These are all the products I use on an everyday basis.
I hope I could help some of you out there, by sharing my Everyday Makeup Routine. :)

As already said, I will be blogging more regularly from now on and I'm already looking forward to it!
