Lets fly away..(2)


s̄ws̄dī,
 *google it for a clue to where i'm jetting off to*

Last post I wrote about creating the ideal travel outfit for you –see here- today we are continuing our journey to prepare for a fun summer vacation.

Ever wondered “What make up items should I take!!”, well I used to be and over packer when it comes to make up and when I say over I really mean OVER – no one needs two foundations and every shade of pink lipsticks there is- see picture below for proof..
Nightmere!!!

But yes I used to be a heavy traveler, that is until I learnt the hard way, lets imagine a scene shall we?, Shoug at the airport with her precious makeup in her carryon bag passing through security and trembling not to get caught, because she just read a sign that says something about make up, I literally had to distract the guy at the scanner just to pass through!! Man that’s one experience I hope to never relive!!

Moving on, when your on vacation you don’t really need much makeup, why not give your skin a vacation too?? Let it breath and apply lightweight makeup, and since I am traveling to a tropical destination this summer I thought less is more.

So here are the things I have packed with me in my makeup bag:

Naked Palette
this will forever be my go to eye shadow palette, perfect for those summer nights

MAC skin finish in Dark
to give your face some dimension and couture

MAC Superb skin finish
If you’re looking to give your cheeks a bronzy glow, this is a perfect shimmer to enhance your summer tan

RIMMEL stay matte pressed powder
this is the perfect powder for a tropical weather, its light but effective, you can never go wrong with this powder

- Nars Blush in Orgasm and Deep Throat (gorgeous shades that look flawless and dewy)
MAC Blush in Prom Princesses (Perfect plum shade for those nude looks)

- Smashbox BB cream in Medium (who needs foundation when you have BB creams!!)
Urban Decay Tinted Moisturizer in Bulletproof (for those days when I just need very light coverage)

The Balm Meet Matt(e) palette (the only reason I'm taking this is coz it contains my favorite eyebrow shadow)


Liquid eyeliners
- Mikyajy in black twilight
- Urban Decay 24/7 in Radium
- H&M liner in Green (mix up your look don’t just opt for black!!)

Maybelline One by one volume express Mascara

- Benefit That Gal primer & Urban Decay eyeshadow primer potion (a primer is a must for a tropical weather)
Maybelline FIT concealer

Coola moisturizing sunscreen

Pencil eyeliners
- MAC Designer Purple
- MAC Black Swan
- MAC Undercurrent
- NYX in Gold
- NYX in Silver

Do you have the travel bug?? Tell me what do you take in your makeup bag when you travel..

Next time we will be discussing lipsticks and how to choose the perfect colors for your vacation, EXCITING!!!

These are a few of my favorite things: May&June


Ciao Darlings,

 Well, can you believe it!! We are half way through 2013!! Hello July!! How did the year go by so quickly!!?

Today I'm here to share with you my May & June favorites, so without further ado here they are..
 *Monthly Favorites Dance*

First lets start with my beauty favorites

Ronnie red MAC lipstick

Its a twist from the normal Red color, i am loving wearing this with golden eyeshadows.


 This is a gorgeous pink; its is a statement all by its self, i love wearing this with blue eyeliner or a black cat eye.


Notice how much i am loving bright lipsticks?? well this one is no different this orange is unlike any orange, its like a mix of orange and red, i always get complements whenever i wear it.




Electric blue H&M eyeliner




 my favorite blue eyeliner, i love how this has a metallic finish to it plus it is so easy to apply.

Fit me Maybelline concealer

 i bought this when i was in a hurry and my mac pro long wear  concealer was finished, this turned out to be the best concealer i have tried, its easy to apply and it blends flawlessly.

H&M bronzing powder

 This product is a basic thing for me, i always have it in reach even if its not what I'm using at the time, but these past months i have rediscovered the glory that is this bronzer, i use it to contour and it does an amazing job at it.


Prom Princess MAC blush

What can i say about this other than I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT.

Devine Swine OPI nail polish






And now onto my random Favorites

- Favorite TV show: I have three, lets face it with the premier of new summer shows a TV show junky is bound to get crazed with new shows




This has got to be the most TV show that I anticipate each week, its only 4 episodes in but I love the mystery, the drama and the relationships, it kinda reminds me a bit of pretty little liars. If you haven’t seen this than what are you waiting for go download it.



If you love historic dramas than this is a must see for you, and if you love TV shows that are based on novels than GO WATCH!! This show is amazing, from the events, the history and OMG the characters are just phenomenal. 




Do you love Stephen King?? GO WATCH THIS!! This show is based on Kings amazing novel with the same name, it is just so gripping, it pulls you into the world of several people and how they are affected by what is happening.
