DIOR ADDICT Lip Maximizer – 002 Collagen Activ
beauty
some things are just ment to be. like booking a flight to vienna and a few days after receiving the invite to kiehl’s bb cream launch. as you know i am a HUGE kiehl’s fan and the fact that they released a beauty product that i use every day, has really made me happy. i have used the cream for about 10 days now and apart from the fact, that even the lightest shade is a little too bright (i hope they’re releasing darker shades in italy!) i really love it. here’s the things that make this bb cream really the best for me:
1. the SUPER high SPF of 50/PA +++ (did you know a high sun protection in your sin care / make up is the #1 protection for wrinkles?)
2. it’s frangrance-, paraben- and mineral oil-free and non comedogenic, which means it doesn’t clog pores (the texture is really smooth and lets the skin breathe)
3. it gives my skin a really nice glow
this is def one of my beauty highlights of 2013 and also the price of 29€ is going to make me buy it as soon as this one’s gone, which is going to be soon i guess!
the other week my class mate, photographer andrea mancilla, shot some beauty photos of me for a publication in mexico city. i feel like mexico city’s next telenovela star! what a different look from how i normally dress. feeling like a real girl.
i am pretty much totally exaggerating concerning this hair issue. yesterday i asked you on my instagram and facebook what you prefer: long or short hair. i really like my short hair as it is really convenient to wear open and style. on the other hand i really miss putting up my hair in a bun or having messy, long beach hair.
apart from the ombre look, this is how my hair has been looking for a while now, after i cut it (myself!) earlier last year:
… and here how i had my hair for a reeeeally long time:
after i have been obsessing over alexa chung’s hair for almost a year now, i have finally had the guts to try an ombre diy. as you know i barely ever go to the hairdresser because i just always pay loads of money for unsatisfying results. so i started to cut my hair at home, last time the boyfriend cut it and now i finally colored it at home.
there are so many good products but i was really unlucky to be in italy, where there’s only a very small selection of products that make your hair brighter (most people here are naturally brunette, so the market for bleach isn’t as big). so the only thing i found was schwarzkopf nordic blonde highlight set. here’s the video i promised and the steps below! hope you like it!
