♥ July's Favourites!
Luna lui cuptor s-a încheiat în stil mare, cu caniculă! Ăsta e şi motivul pentru care în iulie nu voi posta Last Drop of the month, ne-având material pentru postare. Pe scurt, în iulie nu m-am prea machiat, şi nu am utilizat mare lucru, înafară de chestiile din rutina de îngrijire zilnică. Lăsând la o parte produsele (ne)terminate, a venit timpul să vă povestesc despre câteva produse care mi-au făcut viaţa mai uşoară în iulie.
Ziceam la începutul acestei postări că nu m-am prea machiat în iulie, însă în puţinele dăţi când am făcut asta, am apelat la brozerul MUA. L-am folosit cu dublu rol: blush şi bronzer (contur), aplicându-l în aşa fel încât le făcea într-o oarecare măsură pe amândouă.
I was saying at the beginning of this post that I didn't wear much makeup in July, however, the few times I did wear makeup, I always wound up putting on this MUA bronzer. I used it both as a blush and as a bronzer, applying it so that it does both.
O să încep prin a spune că NU este translucidă, e doar numele nuanţei. Am folosit-o cu succes pentru a controla excesul de sebum de pe faţa mea (pentru că deşi am tenul uscat, vara faţa mea transpiră foarte uşor şi destul de tare, ceea ce îmi face pielea şi mai chinuită).
I will start by saying that it is NOT translucid, it's just the name of the shade. I've used it successfully to control the excess sebum on my face (because even though my skin is dry, in the summer my face tends to sweat quite much and it makes my skin even worse).
Cum ziceam, am pielea uscată şi deşi până acum ceva timp asta nu se aplica şi la corp, mai nou de voie de nevoie nu uit să mă "cremuiesc". Crema asta de mâini miroase divin (haha, v-aţi prins?). Este o cremă uşoară, care intră foarte uşor în piele şi îmi menţine mâinile hidratate până dau de apă iar (de obicei pielea mea devine foarte uscată după contactul cu apa).
As I said, I've got dry skin and even though it wasn't like that for the skin on my body up until recently, now I can't forget to moisturize. This hand cream smells divine (haha, get it?). It is a light cream that sinks into the skin so fast and keeps my hands moisturized until the next encounter with water (usually my skin becomes super dry after going in contact with water).
Ador toate pensulele BCC, însă în iulie le-am preferat pe astea două. Ambele sunt din gama pro deluxe şi găsiţi părerea mea despre fiecare în postarea dedicată lor.
I simply LOVE all BCC brushes I have, but in July I especially loved these two. Both are from the pro deluxe range and you can read my opinion in each in the post I dedicated to them.
L-am primit în goodie bag la evenimentul de lansare al ONG-ului E.U.P.O.T. , printre alte bunătăţi şi am cam uitat de el până acum. În iulie deşi nu am purtat foarte mult machiaj, am preferat puţină culoare pe buze (poate ca să compensez lipsa machiajului la ochi?). Creionul ăsta ruj s-a dovedit a fi exact ceea ce vroiam aşa că tot spre el am întins mâna. Am să scriu şi despre el cât de curând.
I got this in the goodie bag from the launch of the NGO E.U.P.O.T., among other goodies and I kinda forgot about it until recently. In July, even though I didn't wear a lot of makeup, I prefered wearing a little color on my lips (maybe to compensate for the lack of makeup on the eyes?). This lip stick pen has proven to be perfect for the job and I kept reaching for it. I will do a complete review on it soon.
Concluziile lunii:
July went out with a bang, a heat wave that is! This is the reason why I will not be posting the Last Drop of the month series, because I haven't finished anything this month. In a nutshell, I haven't worn too much makeup or used to many products, besides the ones in my daily routine. Moving on, it's time for me to talk about a few products that have made my life easier in July.
- MUA Mosaic Bronzer - Sunkissed Glow
I was saying at the beginning of this post that I didn't wear much makeup in July, however, the few times I did wear makeup, I always wound up putting on this MUA bronzer. I used it both as a blush and as a bronzer, applying it so that it does both.
- Max Factor Creme Puff Powder - 05 translucent
I will start by saying that it is NOT translucid, it's just the name of the shade. I've used it successfully to control the excess sebum on my face (because even though my skin is dry, in the summer my face tends to sweat quite much and it makes my skin even worse).
- Petit Angel The SECRET Hand Cream
As I said, I've got dry skin and even though it wasn't like that for the skin on my body up until recently, now I can't forget to moisturize. This hand cream smells divine (haha, get it?).

- Inglot AMC Gel Eyeliner Matte - 89
Evident poza a fost făcută când încă era intact.. nu mai arată aşa acum! L-am primit când Inglot a venit în Cluj pentru târgul Beauty Forum. Culoarea e o combinaţie între un bej taupe şi un mov, e foarte interesantă, iar textura tuşului e incredibilă. Trebuie doar să ating cu pensula suprafaţa produsului şi-mi ajunge să conturez ochiul. Vine şi pentru el un review, în curând.
Obviously this picture was taken when it was still untouched.. it doesn't look like this anymore! I got it when Inglot visited Cluj for the Beauty Forum fair. The color is a combination of taupe and purple, very interesting by the way, and the texture is incredible. I only need to touch the surface of the product with my brush and it's enough to contour one eye. I'll have a full review on this one too, soon.
Concluziile lunii: - deşi nu m-am machiat mult în luna iulie, aproape toate produsele preferate sunt produse pentru machiaj;
- urmează un val măricel de review-uri pe blog.
Conclusions of the month:
- even though I didn't use much makeup in July, almost all of my favourite products are makeup products;
- there's gonna be quite a few reviews on the blog.
Until next time, yours,
