Brand Focus: Bourjois


In today's post I want to focus on specific brand and show you all the best products from it. For first I've chosen the very popular Bourjois. It's hard not to have anything from this company or have never used anything. The founder was the first man who invented a powder blush and for these days they are a strong rival in drugstore beauty industry. 

The Rose Coup de Foudre (Love-struck Rose) blush in number 16 is a lovely peachy pink blush with a slight shimmer. If you're looking for a natural, everyday blush it's a winner. It gives a beautiful glow without being overwhelming and stays in place for a whole day. If you're not a fan of this shade I'm sure you'll find something for you from Bourjois.

I think every blog or youtube beauty guru mentioned this "Chocolate" bronzer (number 52) somewhere. It's very easy-to-use product perfect for beginners because of its long colour building process. Basically it's hard to messed up or look like you're covered in mud. Because of a slight shimmer you instantly look more awake and glowy.

The famous Color Boost. If someone is talking about drugstore chubby lip pencil these ones will be surely pointed out. They are extremely longlasting and waterproof also. You can find them in a beautiful red, peachy pink, fuschia, orange, dark red and dark plum. My favourite one for summer is Peach on the Beach which emphasise your tan but also I'm trying to wear not so natural shades and the Fuschia Libre is helping me with that.

Sephora Haul


During my trip to United States my mum and I spent almost 2 hours picking makeup things in Sephora. I can only feel sorry for my dad who had been waiting outside the store. No matter what we ended up walking out with happy faces and bags full of makeup.


The first thing that I bought (and actually need) is a new foundation form NARS. Technically it's a tinted moisturizer but still I absolutely love it. For sure is my best foundation ever - the light/medium coverege, no "mask effect", lovely scent, SPF30. Because of my summer tan I picked shade ST.MORTIZ and it's perfect. If you're looking for new foundation I highly recommend this one.


I've been hearing about this product for so long and finally decided to buy it. It's Make Up Forever full coverage concealer in number 7. Now I understand what the hipe is about. It covers all of my imperfections and stays on my face for all day. It's hard to pick up good concealer especially for the summer time but this one does it's job because it's waterproof and also sweatproof.



I mean who doesn't want to look like Victoria's Secrets models? Perfect skin, summer tan and this golden glow? Oh please don't lie to me. This Shimmer Block from Laura Mercier in Golden Mosaic gives you all these things. I love it especially because of it's versatility. Using all the colours or the darkest one can be used as a bronzer, the left and right shade looks beautiful as a blush or as a bronzer for pale skin and the lighest one is beautiful highlighter. How can you be not sold already?



The famous NARS blush in Orgasm. Probably you heard about it from hundreds different sources how amazing this product is and here I won't say anything different. Sorry but how can you say no for lovely pink blush with golden shimmer for every skin tone? Exactly you can't.



A new release from Benefit. After using They're Real mascara I have very strong expectations from it and I'm a little bit disappointed. It's not horrible but also it's not fantastic. It's ok but I have a few of drugstore eyeliners that are better than this. Definitely the tip helps a lot with creating a flick but I spent quite a lot of time drawing a black line but maybe it's because of first appliance. 



And finally the perfect nude nail polish - OPI in Sweet Heart. After using all of my Rimmel by Rita Ora "Lose Your Lingerie" I thought I'll buy this one because I constantly wear this colour on my nails. The only cons of it is how quickly the nails get dirty.
