Q&A: About Make-Up



Hello lovelies! I decided to do a Q&A for you today. Some friends helped me and set up a couple of questions for me to answer on the blog.
And here is what they got! Hope you guys enjoy it :)

What were the last beauty products you bought?
Oh this one is actually really easy. I bought about a week ago a new eyeshadow from GOSH and a new body butter from The Body Shop. I don't like to use body butter, actually... I don't know why. I think it's because the time it takes...? I mean, standing half an hour in the shower is more than enough, right? But this one smelled amazing, I just had to have it.

Who is the greatest Make-Up Guru you know?
I did know someone... She was like one of my best friends and she actually made me love Make-up. But then we went to different colleges and never spoke to each other again. Really pity, cause I still really miss the great time we spend together.

If you had to choose between ''never lipstick again'' or ''never lipgloss again'', what would you choose?
Auch! This is a hard one, because it really depends on my mood and which phase... Now I would choose definitely ''never lipgloss again''. But If you have asked me this question about four month ago, my answer would be different.

Would you be able to go through to live for 30 days without make-up?
Easy. I adore make-up, but I'm not addicted, Alhamdoulillah. I still believe that the natural way Allah made me is the most beautiful version of me.

Which beautyproduct do you use first in the morning when you dress up to go outside?
At the moment - and that is íf I feel like wearing make-up - it's my brown eye pencil of essence. I use it for under my lower waterline, in the outer corner of my eye till the middel. I love how my eyes look that way!
I don't use any day creams, foundations, concealers or something. Alhamdoulillah, like, I don't need it. But I have them though... because like I said: I adore make-up, so I do use them sometimes, but pure for fun! lol.

What is your favorite make-up brand?
Good question. I love a lot of brands. But my first love is GOSH, so this brand has a special place in my heart (I know, I'm being weird right now). It always has been GOSH. But of course, MAC, Manhattan, Rimmel London and Urban Decay are the next in line. But lately I found Catrice really great too: much better in quality (unfortunately, also higher in price... lol)

Which brand is a total mess, in your opinion?
I don't really has a answer to that, because every brand does have products that really suck...

Which look did you wear previous sunday?
Previous sunday was actually my B'Day! I did wear a basic look. Make-up: just the dark brown eye pencil the way I described it above, and a basic, extra long Form Fitting Dress in a grey color, with a long jeans jack over it + dark blue high heels boots

What make-up do you have on right now?
Nothing actually! I was just videotaping a make-tutorial for you. But I just finished and cleansed my face!

That was it!
Interview time is over... everyone back to his work. Now! Chop Chop!

Just kidding.
Maybe you can answer the same questions and post them down below in a comment! I would love that!

Hope you guys enjoyed it!

Much Love <3

Best I ever had - Essence eyeliner pen - extra long lasting


This is the best eyeliner I ever had. Seriously. Essence did a damn good job with this eyeliner. I've had so many eyeliners in the past two years. Rimmel, Catrice, Sabas, Maybelline, Gosh, Oriflame... etc... But no one beats this new love.

It promises you extra longlasting... and it ís extra longlasting. It promises you precise lining, and it really helps you to get the perfect line and wing. It promises you an intensive colour, and it ís really covering. It promises you to be smudge-proof, and trust me... It is reálly smudge-proof - last night I forgot to wash my face before I went to bed. But I was so tired that I just brushed my teeth, changed my clothes, and went to bed. I totally forgot that I still had my make-up on (the only make-up I had on was this eyeliner, as usually).
Well, next day I woke up, and I was shocked when I saw my big eyes in the mirror with still, the perfect eyeliner, with the perfect wing... No smudges at all and most importantly, no swatches. It was just as black and covering as when I put it on.


It is no limited edition product, so you can get it anytime you want. Girls, I really recommend this to you. Especially the ones who love eyeliner, and the ones who want to learn and practice to put eyeliner on. This eyeliner pencil is really handy and comfortable to use, it's really easy to draw a perfect line ánd wing with it.


Here you see how it looks like after a day. It is a really beautiful black colour, and trust me... You don't have to be afraid to touch your eyes. When my eyes hurt or something I always need to rub them a little. When I have this eyeliner on, I don't have to be afraid for the fact that it won't look like this after.
I am really thankful for Essence that they have brought such an amazing product to the market. This is one of my Must Haves. And it better be one of yours too!

One drawback: the pencil doesn't last long. About two months, and you'll have to get a new one. This isn't like that with the other brands. But whatever: it only costs you around €3/4 euro. That is pretty much nothing, for something of this quality.

Much Love <3

What is your favorite eyeliner?

Random fact about me: eyeliner is my favorite make-up product.

Catrice Ultimate Colour Lipgloss - Limited Edition: Carnival of Colours



I love the drugstore. If I'll ever need a job, I will try to find one in a drugstore. It has never really happened to me, that I went to a drugstore - went inside - and got out with nothing in my hands. I always have to spend money in there. I just always find something that's really worth it...

Last time I visited the oh so lovely drugstore under near my apartment, I found a lót, so... I bought a lót. These cute, small lip glosses from Catrice are just one thing actually... but they are pretty much one of the things I was really happy about.

I found them in the sale box - in which I found more expired limited edition products. I was actually really happy to found them in a unopened state, because I'm always afraid to buy things from the sale box and found out later that they were already tested by others. Now, thát makes me angry... really. It always feels like someone fooled me really bad!



You can see how small they are. Just the same size as a lipstick. Perfect for on the way. I also love the design of it, I don't know, but it feels more comfortable to hold or something...

These Beauties are from the Limited Edition line of Catrice, so called ''Carnival of Colours''. That explains why the colors are so bright.

I swatch them on the inside of my polse, so you can get a good idea of how they would look like on your lips. But it turns out, that it's still not really the same as on your lips.

The first color: C02 When I Say Li, You Say Lac...
The second color: C01 Burning Down The Arena
The third color: C04 Feel The SpiRED

I guess I miss the color C03. That's pitty, but I still satisfied though!










On this foto you can see how they would look on your lips. Sorry guys for the bad foto... I really though the foto's on my camera would look better on the laptop screen, but no. I so sorry. Still hope you guys can see the difference. And to be honest: to get a good picture of how they look on your lips, this foto is actually really good, cause it kinda ''tells the truth''.

First color: C04 Feel the SpiRED
Second color: C01 Burning Down The Arena
Third Color: C02 When I say Li, You Say Lac...







I definitely love the first and the second color, but if I really had to choose... I would go for  Feel the SpiRED. I think that one looks the best on me.

Much Love <3

Which one would you choose?
