2016 Beauty Favorites +2016 Reflection ! Happy New Year 🎆 🎆 🎆

Hello Beauties ! I'm Writing this post in the last day of 2016 , what a ride ! This year in particular went by so quickly , i'm still grasping that 2017 is starting in a few hours .

2016 brought a lot of new challenges , new experiences , new life lessons, got hurt , fell on the ground and picked myself up, I learned so many things , i jumped out of my comfort zone and it felt so good , made new friends , achieved goals . As every year it has its ups and downs .

Now 2017 is almost here , i'm very positive about it bringing so many fresh starts , beautiful things and new Goals :) .

I hope that this year will bring beautiful things to your lives <3 .

Moving on to this years beauty favorites , these are products that i used and loved religiously during this year .


Eyes products :

Let's start of with the Obvious , i have two eye-shadow palettes that i have been using constantly during this year , it's the NAKED 2 and the SMOKEY one from the Urban Decay along with the eye primer .
We all know that urban decay palettes are good , however there is one downside , the shimmery shades need a wet brush to be applied with to avoid fall outs .

I've been using two eyeliners , one is a pencil liner the RIMMEL scandal eyes in "black", great  product , i have watery eyes by nature so it's really hard for me to find a decent pencil that won't smudge , this is one is good it lasts for a fair amount of time without smudging .
The second one which is a recent buy , it's the Bourjois Slim Eyeliner . Great Great Great product , i can't rave enough about it , it lasts for a the whole day , easy to use , super precise Aaaaaaand i have hooded eyes , if it lasts for me it will last for you !

One of the eye shades that i use for years now in black i also use it under my lower lash line is the color tattoo from maybelline in black , long lasting , they do dry up easily but nothing that
i like warm water or steam can't solve , again affordable and great product.

For eyebrows the only powder that i use from time to time to fill in any gaps if i have any is an eyehadow from Catrice in "Go charlie brown" .

Mascara wise i loved using the Telescopic in Carbon black , best Mascara that i used since the Jordana Best Lash Extreme .

Face products :

I don't use foundations that often  , the only one that i use when i apply it is the Fit me in the dewy finish formula , It glides on like a dream , hydrating , natural finish , not long lasting though .

Concealers my holy holy grail of all times is the Fit  me concealer , i use the shade 20 which has a yellow undertone ,very natural does not crease or cake up underneath the eye .
Another one which is great for Highlighting the best that i have ever used so far , great price and quality report .

The only blushes that i used this year is this cheap palette from ELF in 'light" it's perfect , the quality is easily comparable to high end makeup , and the colors selection is great too.

And the star of the face products so far is the this Wonderrrrrrrfuuuuuuul highlighter from the Balm in the shade Mary-Loumanizer , very natural smooth and finely mild .

For bronzer , the only one that i used this year is the Body shop honey bronzer , great selection for people with fair skin , very finely mild and natural .

For contouring the best one so far is the BAHAMA MAMA from the balm , great great product , it has a neutral undertone and it's very finely and it blends easily .

Lips :

The best finds for 2016 for me are Nyx lip butters and soft matte creams , Amazing , Amazing , it smells like cake butter they glide on easily , very comfortable to wear but they're not long lasting .

Favorite lip balm of the year is Carmex , cheap does its job and the hydration is long lasting.

Body Mists : 

The best ones , long lasting and the selection is very wide are hands down the Victoria secrets body sprays i have the Freesia based one and the Coconut Vanilla one , they smell heavenly .


This pretty much sums up my beauty favorites for 2016 , cannot wait to try new products next year .

I wish all a Happy and Blessed new year .

Have a Magical Year ,


Love .

Current Makeup Favorites !

Hello beauties ! what i'm going to be showing you today are my Current favorites , things that i have been reaching for and loving during the last few  month , So without further due let's get started :


Face :


1 - L'oreal Magic Blur primer this product is amaaaaaazing ! it has been the only primer that i use since summer ,it literaly blurs out your pores and makes everything that you apply on top of it smoother plus it elongates the wear of my makeup which is always an advantage ! I highly recommend this product !

2 - Garnier BB cream for combo/oily skin , i had this product for a year now and even though i have dry skin i love to use you just have to make sure that you moisturize really well , it has enough coverage that i don't even feel the need to wear a concealer with it.


3 - L'oreal Magique BB Powder , again a well loved product , i reach for this powder everyday it can be compared easily to many high-end powders , it i-s very finely mild , it's perfect for dry skin , it mattifies and adds a hint of colour to the overall look ! I Love it ! 

4 - Catrice Matt bronzing Powder , I've almost hit pan on it , this product is easy blendable it has a perfect undertone it does not look muddy or fake , i don't use it to contour i only use it to warm up  my complexion !

5 - And finally a gorgeous peach toned blush for the fit me line ! it is the maybelline fit me blush in the shade " Medium Nude" , it's a gorgeous shade that gives you a glowy , and i love using it during winter as it helps to give a healthy look to the skin 

Eyes :



1 - Avon eye primer in the lightest shade , i'm almost done with and i don't know what i'm going to do without it i have been using it for more than a year now , it's has a creamy texture but once you apply it sets and it helps you to unify the colour of the lid , it helps the shadows to blend easily .. Very affordable and with a great quality !

2 - Catrice Mono eyeshadow in the shade" My first copperware party" i was very excited to buy this at first but when i got it i was a bit disappointed because it is not the most pigmented and not the most longlasting eyeshadow, it has a pretty sheen to it and a wash of colour so for an everyday makeup look it's perfect if used with a good primer underneath .

3 - L'oréal super slim eyeliner with a very precise brush and a rich black but it not the most long lasting on my eyes , still i find it really easy to apply so i reach for it often !

4 - And finally my holy grail Mascara of all time the Voluminous ,it has one side curved and the other straight , which gives both volume and length 

Lips :



1- Both lip Glosses are from the Catrice infinite shine line , and they are gorgeous i have both nude shades "best seller truth teller" which is a bit on the warm side and the second shade "Like a nude life" which is on the cool side , they are gorgeous non sticky very hydrating yet very shiny and colors are to die for ! 


So guys this is it for my current makeup favorites i hope that you've enjoyed this post ! What are your current favorites?
