L'oreal Infallible 24h Foundation

After applying 

I love packaging - the combination of black and red with a lovely scent. It's really smooth and easy to blend which is a big plus. Even though it's a high coverage you don't feel like it's barely there and it covers most of my blemishes. Also it doesn't leave you with the mask effect but gives you a lovely natural glow. If you don't need a lot of coverage find something lighter but this one is perfect when your skin hates you like mine does right now!

Definitely not my favourite foundation. It doesn't stay in few places and also leaves a lot of dry patches. Another big minus is that it's almost 2 tones darker than in the packaging. I don't know why it claims to stay for 24h either! 5h is a maximum.

What's you favourite drugstore foundation? Let me know in the comments :)

Style Icon: Jessica Alba

Under my last "Style Icon" post Fleur  suggested me to take a closer look to Jessica Alba's style. After picking all of the photos I must say her outfits are beautiful! She's definitely my new style inspiration. Also she is so pretty. How it's even possible! I'm so jealous :)

What do you think? What's your style icon?

Review: Revlon ColorBurst Lacquer Balm

It's not a big secret that I'm a nude kind of girl and everything I want to buy has to be in nude or natural shade. That's why when I was looking which shade of Revlon ColorBurst Lacquer Balm to buy I chose Demure - a perfect light nude-pink. Not only the colour is beautiful the quality is just amazing. It's very moisturizing and looks very shiny and glossy. What's more it gives you a minty feel and taste.
I'm sure this product will be my go-to during a school time because it's easy to apply, not-flamboyant and soothing.
I'll definitely buy more shades!

Do you have any Revlon Colorburst? What's your favourite shade?

TV Series Worth The Hype | September 2014

It's really hard to find a person who doesn't watch any tv series I mean really do you know anybody who has never heard about Game of Thrones or Gossip Girl? If you are this lovely people who actually survive in XXI century without Netflix or online watching I can only congratulate you. As you probably can imagine I spend every minute on the Internet whether is my phone or my laptop especially during holidays. I much prefer spend my evening watching a new episode than to go to a party. I can't help it guys! I'm a nerd or super white girl... I leave you to decide.
Today I want to show you all of my favourite TV series. Hope you'll enjoy it!

We all know this show has to be on the list. A super white girls classic if you ask me! I won't deny I've watched it twice and love every single episode. The plot is simple and basically everyone ends up at some point with all of the main characters in bed but still LOVE IT. Serena is definitely my favourite and as I say in my Style Icon: Blake Lively I would do anything to look like her and/or has her clothes. Proud to say team Serena and Nate hah!

It's my recent discovery and it's really worth the hype. The TV show is based on Piper Kerman's memoir "Orange Is The New Black: My Year In Women's Prison". I don't know why but I've always been interested in prison theme and this one shows pretty much every detail on the life in prison. You can laugh, cry and stay shocked for a few days after watching few episodes. Definitely recommend it!

This show is definitely my guilty pleasure. The plot might be cheesy and simple but all the mystery and darkness make me watch it even more. To be honest you can watch it just to watch all the actors I mean how it's even possible that everyone there is so good-looking! (Team Damon ekhem..)

A sweet, funny, easy comedy while watching it you don't have to thing about anything just laugh. Love it especially after busy days. You don't have to watch it in order just enjoy jokes!

I admit I hate horrors (probably because of my lovely friends from primary school who loved to scare me). That's why I was so afraid to watch the first episode but so many people'd told me about AHS that finally I've braced up and did it. Surprisingly most of the episodes didn't made me cry and regret watching the horror show. If you're a horror fan highly recommend it!

I guess this one is the most "ambitious" from all of the series you've just read. Honestly at first I wasn't so sure if I like it or not but I kept up watching and it gets me. For sure the cast and acting skills are excellent as well as the scenery. Of course there are plots that don't make me so excited but for example when the one of the main character died I was shocked/angry/stressed/every emotion possible (yes I didn't tell you the name of this character because you have to watch it or if you're watching Game of Thrones you'll know and probably felt the same)

What's your favourite TV show? Any recommendation? :)

Brand Focus: Maybelline

Maybelline is for sure one of the most popular drugstore makeup brand. It's hard to find a person who has never used anything from it. In this post I want to show you few things and what I'm thinking about them. Enjoy!

Color Tattoo Eye Shadows "Pink Gold" "Bad to the Bronze"- Probably everyone heard something about them mostly good things. Sorry you are now going to read another boring review of how much I love using these products. Great shades, amazing lasting power, perfect if you're using them as a base or for it's own. Perfect for mornings when you slept a little bit too long!
Color Sensational Shine Gloss "420 Glorious Grapefruit"- I'm must say I usually don't like lipglosses. I hate when they are sticky and when it's windy all of my hair is glued to my lips. Ugh... As you can see I much prefer lipsticks but too be honest I quite like this lipgloss. Surprisingly is very natural and not so sticky. If you are a lipgloss person try it! Also love the shade!
Color Whispers "720 Mocha Muse" "440 Orange Attitude" "430 Coral Ambition" "130 Pink Possibilities" - During the school year they are perfect. Easy to apply, a lot of shades and quite moistruizing.  They aren't very pigmented so if you prefer natural look with a bit of a colour, give it a go. My favourites are Coral Ambition and Pink Possibilities.
EyeStudio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner "01 Black" - Definitely my favourite eyeliner of all time! It's a dupe for Bobbi Brown eyeliners but a lot cheaper. The staying power is amazing and it's waterproof. Also it comes with a brush so you don't have to buy any other.
Mascara The Colossal Go Extreme! - I'm not a big fan of Maybelline's mascara I much prefer L'oreals but this one is pretty good. It's waterproos, stays all day and gives a natural volume. Not my favourite mascara though.
Super Stay Gel Nail Color 7 days nail polish "155 Bubble Gum" "490 Rose Salsa Hot Salsa" - Absolutely love these nail polishes! Great quality and lovely shades. I've mentioned it in my post My Favourite Summer Nail Polishes. I'm planning to buy more shades!

"Rose Gold" / "Bad to the Bronze" / "Glorious Grapefruit" / "Mocha Muse" / "Orange Attitude" / "Coral Ambition" / "Pink Possibilities"

August Favourites

Yes August is over and yes I'm still in shock too. August ends = school starts. But what we can do. At least I can show you things which I've enjoyed this month!

Boho brancelets - I don't know if this is a "thing" but I'm obsessed! It was so fun to collect my perfect brancelets look and literally I'm wearing them everyday. They remind me of summer time and give a little bit of colour when probably you're like me and wear monochrome all the time. You can find brancelets like that in local stores, on the vacations or in Urban Outfitters. Love them!

Essie "Plumberry" - It's perfect shade for late summer/early fall when you still want to look like a golden godness but the weather force you to change your mood and wardrobe to more darker clothes. I'm constantly wear it especially on my feet.

L'oreal Glam Bronze nr 102 - Perfect product for giving you this bronzy look or/and for conturing because it's matte. Also in the packaging you can fin a little brush which is perfect size for highlighting.

L'oreal True Match powder in D3/W3 Golden Beige - I was looking for a new powder with perfect shade, a little bit of coverage and making my skin matte and natural. Yes I've found it! Highly recommend it and for sure I'll try L'oreal True Match foundation! (Ekhem excuse dirty packaging)

What's your favourite product at the moment? Let me know :)
