Beauty Essentials! + The Supemelon




Check out the Feature here.
  • Powder foundation - I like loose and subtle. Something to help even my skin tone; yet airy and light. I usually opt for Cover Girl in Natural Beige or Chanel’s Creme Beige.

  • Blush - Maybelline’s Toast of New York adds just the right touch of subtle color without going overboard. I use this shade almost everyday, for night I like to go for Chanel’s Glamour, which is a little richer in color.
  • Lipgloss - Chanel’s Sirop is my favorite shade, reminds me of the kind of color I always imagined applying onto my Barbie as a little girl…
  • Nails - New York Color and OPI, usually. But I’m not a snob when it comes to labels, I like any brand as long as the color fits my style du jour. Right now I have on a party poppin’ pink colour (that I mixed out of 3 different shades) on my toes from OPI and usually go back and forth between my OPI’s Boris & Natasha (deep purple) and Vodka & Caviar (elegant rich red). I can never go long without having my toes painted either; that’s key!!
  • Eyeliner - The darker the better. I adore the slanted eye pencils by Styli-Style best.
  • Bronzer - My two staples are Chanel’s Toundra and Revlon’s Skinlights Face Illuminator.
  • Perfume - Daisy by Marc Jacobs, Original Juicy Couture and The One by Dolce & Gabbana are my rotating favorites… for now.
  • Face Wash - Neutrogena Deep Clean Cream Cleanser is perfect in the shower, when you really want to strip away any extra oil or dead skin. After I get out, I like to re-cleanse with Original Noxema Deep Cleansing Cream; and just before bed as well.

Details on Outfits here and here.

Protege said...

Ah, I remember Noxzema! It was my favorite face wash when I lived in NC (and was young;). It kept my skin blemish free, especially in the humid and hot summers of the southeast.;))
Love the collage and love all your beauty essentials. I too am fond of dark, smokey eyes.;))
The pictures are great - you look gorgeous!;)
Have a great Friday and a great weekend.;)

daisy by marc jacobs is one of my favourite perfumes. i have the solid one on a necklace that you can wear around and use whenever you want a little bit of daisy-smelling goodness. it is just lovely .

hope you are well!

Anonymous said...

I wish you would dress like your night choise a little more. Sometimes your choices are doubty or repeats. Your night choice seems so sexy and edgy. I'd also love to see more studs and acessories. Like fashiontoast. LOVE YOU FASHIONCHALET

Debora

♥ fashion chalet said...

^ Thank you Deborah!

I'll accept any feedback, tips and ideas. I do however love to play dress up, I haven't quite decided on what's my favorite style, which is why I change and come up with different things. It seems you like it more when I dress classically?? :]

Fashionology said...

Great looks! I love your studdes heels so much! <3

Ediot said...

i just LOVE the out outfit. its amazingly chic and elegant. you look like a catwalk model.

Phone with a Cord said...

Sassy said...

Thanx, but it's not Luella, it's a cheap copycat...

I love your studded pumps!

AKIRA said...

OMFG so cuteeeeeeeee♡

Sushi said...

I love that night outfit x

An (ex) alien in new york said...

I think it's actually the hair in the night outfit that puts it above the day... I do like the day shoes.

I haven't had long hair in so long... At one point it was half way down my back, but yours? How on earth do you keep the ends from splitting? I'd have to spend hours going through it with nail scissors!

Sasa Stilettos said...

loving your night look, oversized clutches are soo chic ♥ also, seriously envious of your long legs :( i want to grow talllerrrrrr :'(
