Hello sweet people, so I thought I’d share with you my basic everyday skin care & makeup routine, which products I use etc.. :)

First things first, at the moment I wash my face in the morning with either the Eau de mousse micellaire from Nuxe (which smells amazing and is so soft!) or the Effaclar from La Roche Posay. To be honest I tend to use the Nuxe one more often as I prefer the sensation and smell of this one. Then I put this tonic on, which is the So Totally Clean sensitive from Formula 10.0.6. My skin feels so fresh and clean after putting this on, I love it.

Then I put some face cream on, I have tried so many creams so far and I haven’t found one yet that I’m going back to. So the one I am currently using is the Nuxe Creme Fraiche de Beaute. A good friend of mine had this cream when we went on holiday last year and every damn morning I was OBSESSED with the smell of it. Literally, I LOVE it. So when I was yet again on the hunt for a new face cream I purchased this one. I really like it so far so yeah, thanks Jess :), also let me know in the comments if you have any cream you would recommend me !

By the way so far this is also my evening routine, except I’m using a makeup remover before the facewash. I tend to use the Garnier Solution Micellaire but as I was out and in a Parashop, I purchased the Nuxe Eau demaquillante micellaire which is also okay.

Okay! Next step is make up. My beauty tools are my dearest beauty blender and this set of make up brushes from Zoeva. Seriously guys if you’re on the hunt for good and not that expensive beauty brushes, go for Zoeva! It’s soft, beautiful and resistant. I LOVE them. I’m actually considering buying a complementary set to add to my collection. Here’s the website : www.zoeva-shop.de

PS: Also note that they have vegan brushes.

Right, back to why we’re here. First, I apply some concealer because I have natural dark circles under my eyes no matter how long I sleep (thanks mom). The one I’ve been using for years now is the Lasting Perfection from Collection. I love this thing, it blends perfectly, stays all day and covers up also little blemishes and spots.

Then I put some powder on (I do not use foundation, because I have the chance of having quite a clear skin and also because I don’t like the sensation of it on my face) and the ones I have been using for years also are once again the Lasting Perfection from Collection and I used to absolutely love one from Gosh as well but I wasn’t able to find it last time I looked for it so I’m not sure if it has been discontinued or not (sad face).

Next step is “contouring” and I’m using quotation marks here because I am not a pro at doing this. I do the very basic and to start I picked up this kit from Collection, which is perfect for the use I have of it. I used to have one from Urban Decay with the blush as well and I loved it but when it was finished I wanted to check if I could find cheaper alternatives.

So obviously I found myself without a blush and I looked so long for one in the tones I wanted (kind of like old pink) and I finally found the one into a shop that I hadn’t visited in years and it was Kiko. Look how beautiful this blush is! I love it and it smells really nice. It is highly pigmented also. I have the first one on the picture (also perfect for summer, being slighly bronzed).

Next is eyebrows. If I’m feeling lazy I find myself using the BrowDrama mascara from Maybelline, always does the job. Otherwise I use this brow kit from Sleek and mix both the powder and the wax before applying.

So that’s what I use everyday to do my basic skin care and makeup.

Let me know if you would be interested in knowing what I’m using for eyes and lips makeup and I shall do another post for you :)
