The magical lavender field

Published on June 21, 2017June 21, 2017 by musicfashionguide1 Comment

There are so many wonderful places in the world, but I guess we should know our own country before visiting every other. 🙂 So, on that note I decided to go a visit our legendary lavender field near Lake Balaton, in Tihany. And honestly, I was very pleased and mesmerized by the view of the lavender field. We had a chance to pick our own lavender and take some amazing photos to capture the beauty.

Also for this occasion I dyed my hair pastel pink to go along with the scenery and put on some pastel purple lipstick. Unicorn at its finest! LOL

I’m wearing shirt and bag from Zara, skirt from H&M, lipstick from Limecrime (Moonstone), pink hair with L’Oreal colorista (Dirty Pink).

What’s your favorite place in your own country? Let me know in the comments below!

US beauty products

Published on March 21, 2017March 21, 2017 by musicfashionguide3 Comments

I got another round of drug store beauty products from the US and I wanted to let you know about it. In this round I’m gonna just tell you why I got these, because I haven’t tried them, so for now it’s just an information post. 🙂

First off, I really-really wanted to try this L’Oreal colorista washout color, but I’m kind of scared to be honest. I really like my blonde hair, but wanted to shake it up for spring with a not so permanent change. So this seemed like the perfect chance to do so. I like the blue one better at this point, because I realised after I got the color, that I wanted the lighter pink… LOL. So now, I’m on the hunt for the lighter pink color for spring! 🙂 Have you tried this product? If yes, let me know your thoughts in the comment section and send me a picture too.

Whenever I search for drug store products Neutrogena is always on the list, so this time was no exception. I have a similar product from Dior called Fix It! and I really like that, so I thought this could be a great (and cheaper) alternative. I got the lightest color there was, but I have a feeling it might be dark for my skin anyways. We’ll see.

This is another Neutrogena product that I tried already and I have to tell you that it is perfection! It’s a moisturizer and it is light, smells great and makes my skin smooth and beautiful. I love it already!

I read about this product that Gigi Hadid wore this while hosting the American Music Awards, so if it’s good enough for Gigi, it’s good enough for me. 🙂 I haven’t tried it because I have some powder left, but I cannot wait to do so! And when I do, I will let you know my findings.

Obviously I couldn’t go without getting a few lipsticks. I saw an ad about Blake Lively’s L’Oreal lipstick colors and since I love Blake and I have similar features (obviously I’m not talking about the killer body, rather the blonde hair and blue eyes…LOL) so I assumed these colors will look good on me too. We’ll see, but I can already tell that they smell amazing.

So that’s it for now, hope you guys like this post and let me know your thoughts about these products if you have tried them. See you next time!

Weekly beauty review

While I was thinking about what to post next, I noticed that every week I purchase some beauty products for fun. So then I thought, why not post about my experiences with them?

So now here it is!

Fist let’s start with the masks. I don’t really know this brand, but when I see the word hyaluronic, I immediately take a second look. This mask is really nice, it has a little bit tingly feeling when on your face and works wonders. I recommend it fully!

Another mask this time from Garnier. I heard about this mask, so I decided to try it out and honestly, it was a very nice experience. It hydrated my skin very well and my skin felt great afterward. The only thing I would advice against is putting anything on your skin after using the mask. Because I did and it was not a good idea. It made my skin very oily, so after you’re done with this mask, just leave your skin be and go to bed.

During wintertime my skin is very dry due to the weather and also due to showering with extreme hot water…duh! So I decided to try a real classic in lotions. I love the smell of original Nivea, but to be honest I wasn’t very satisfied. It is very oily and leaves an oily feeling on my skin as well. After the oily feeling rubs off, my skin is very soft like a baby’s butt. But then, the next day when I finish my shower and if I don’t moisturize, my skin feels very dry, especially around my elbow area. So I kind of stopped using it… 😦

To be 100% honest I totally bought this item because I loved the tiny pink bubbles in it. LOL It’s actually a primer with glowy effect. It’s very light and I’m not sure it really does anything, but the texture is very light, so not too much under foundation. And it’s so pretty!!!

I wanted to try this nail polish for a while now and it was time to do so. It’s not a nail polish in the traditional sense, since you can see these are little glitter-kind-if-things that stay on your nails. I liked it a lot, because my nails are very thin and cannot really hold any nail polish even for a day. But this totally stayed on and I was able to put another coat and another coat on my nails and looked good for several days. The problem came when I had to take it off…. So forget nail polish remover… I had to scratch it off and it wasn’t fun! BUT it looked good, stayed on, so I guess there’s no reward without work.

Let me know in the comment section if you tried any of these products and how you liked them!

Drug store make up test

Published on January 9, 2017January 10, 2017 by musicfashionguideLeave a comment

So the last time I was in the USA last November, I decided to get some great makeup for my collection. The only problem was that I didn’t have lots of money to pack up in Sephora, so I decided to search for the best drug store makeup products that are used by professionals, meaning makeup artists and of course, celebrities.

Here’s what I purchased on challenge:

I got these items in different places such as CVS Pharmacy, Target and Wal-Mart.

Listed as on of the best primers, I got this Maybelline primer-base which is pretty great to be honest. It soothes the skin and fills small wrinkles.

Since I bought a primer I obviously had to get a foundation as well, so I got this highly praised Maybelline Fit me! foundation. I love this product very much, it stays on all day and my skin doesn’t get oily. The only problem is that it doesn’t have SPF. So my solution…

…is to buy ANOTHER primer, just like the one I got, but with SPF. Waste of money you say? Well, not really if you think about it… ahaha But to be honest, this one is pretty great at well, you can use it by itself and it gives a healthy glow to your skin without putting on anything else.

Then came an eyeshadow called Color Tattoo, color leather from Maybelline (I guess this brand is considered a great drug store makeup brand and it really is). This eyeshadow is amazing! You can use it on its own as a matte brown color, or use it as a base and build it up. I use is on its own lot of times because I like a natural look. It stays on, doesn’t crease and looks pretty.

Another quick, happy mistake of mine was this Covergirl Lashblast Fusion mascara. Since I’m blonde and my lashes are not that visible on their own, I always used black mascara. This time when I grabbed this Covergirl favorite I accidentally bought a brown one. First I panicked so I bought a black one a day later… but to be honest, when I tried it I ended up liking it. It makes your everyday makeup more natural so you can go harder with a black one on special occasions.

One of the things I got obsessed with is doing my brows. When I looked for a great product that is quick and effective I came across this L’Oreal Brow Stylist Plumper. It’s quick, it’s easy to use and looks great!

And finally the lipstick. This was the first time I saw black lipstick at all, so I was instantly fascinated. And who else could pull off representing a black lipstick than Katy Perry?! So she did. And all the other colors in her collection were very exciting so I got a purple one as well. It’s not too pigmented, so you can even wear it every day, but still cool enough that people will ask, “what lipstick are you wearing?” Or “are you cold?” Anyways, it’ll be the talk of the town.

So that was my experiment with drug store makeup. Tell me your favorites and if you tries any of these!

Xo,
