ARTDECO

ARTDECO

I am already more than 3 weeks back from vacation and I totally forgot to tell you what makeUp I took with me to Castellammare del Golfo in Sicily. So now I finally found time and here we go:

I took 5 different eyeshadows and a blusher by ARTDECO and I put them in a MAC palette. all the ARTDECO powder products like blusher and eyeshadows have a tiny magnet on the back so they are made to be stored in a palette. perfect for vacation as you can put together your individual palette. in general in summer or in summer vacation I am not applying MakeUp every day but in the evening after a long day on the beach it is nice to pamper oneself and wear a nice dress and go for dinner. well thats what I did. I was only wearing the makeUp in the evening as it was way too hot to wear makeUp during the day..

16 EYESHADOW
a sparkly pale brown

506 EYESHADOW
a matte stale blue

517 EYESHADOW
a warm matte dark mauve

520 EYESHADOW
a pale light matte brown

551 EYESHADOW
a matte light powdery beige

16 BLUSHER
a nice warm almost pan of terracota

ARTDECO

so as you can see out of the 5 eyeshadows 4 of them are matte and only one has shimmer.I either wore a simple look or a more smokey look.

SIMPLE LOOK
I start with 551 all over the lid and highlight the parts below the brows. 16 in the crease.

SMOKEY LOOK
551 all over the lid and highlight the parts below the brow and the inner corner of the eyes. then I take 506 and cutting the crease. and using 517 and 520 to blend it towards the eyelid.

awesome pigmentation and no fall out thats exactly what I want from eyeshadows – I will for sure get more of these in order to have more shimmery shadows too. will keep you posted.

where can you get these ARTDECO products? I found mine at parfumcity.ch they have awesome deals and since it is a swiss online shop you dont have to pay any extra charges from the customs. ARTDECO is a german brand and is based in Karlsfeld Germany.

MIX WHAT YOU HAVE

I wanna let you know that all the clothes that I am wearing on the blog are in my wardrobe and that I am not accepting any other cooperations where I have to return the clothes and make it look like I have all these clothes but in fact I don’t. this would feel like cheating to you guys and to myself too. anyway, now that I have said that I wanna share some outfit inspirations with a basic silver top and pants by TARA JARMON available via @fashionvestis and how I was wearing this look in three different ways – hence the title: mix what you have!

WOW

top and pants TARA JARMON
clutch and sunglasses C&A
pumps BATA

MY FV LOOK

CHIC

top ESPRIT
pants TARA JARMON
pumps TAMARIS
clutch VINTAGE
sunglasses C&A

silver pants chic

CASUAL 

top TARA JARMON
jeans CURRENT ELLIOT
clutch DIESEL
pumps TAMARIS

silver top casual

so with great basic pieces you can make even a small wardrobe very versatile its just the way you combine and mix what with what. for these inspirations I wanted the look to be light and elegant but suitable for all the different occasions.

what would i wear to a gallery opening?
MY FV LOOK

what would I wear for a dinner or even a business meeting?
silver pants chic

what would I wear every day?
silver top casual

what are basic pieces for me? hmm it could be the best white t-shirt or the perfect skinny jeans, the best fitting black blazer or comfy black heels. these are all things that can always pull a great outfit. a grat matching top and pants are also great as they can be worn individualy or together. so when I am talking about basic pieces I mean clothes that can be well combined.

here you can vote for my outfit <3

MASCARA TIME

I DID IT – I tested some MASCARAS and had a bit of help with testing them. I am not a daily mascara user and I had my issues with several other mascaras before so therefore I am the best judge 🙂 I found all of them for very very decent prices at the parfumcity online shop and I couldnt believe what awesome products they sell there, absolutely worth to visit. ok, lets have a look at different mascaras for different purposes.

whats on the menu today?

ASTOR big + beautiful boom killer volume 
BOURJOIS PARIS volume glamour 
BOURJOIS PARIS volume 1 second
LANCOME hypnose drama 

 

ELNW_35725_extra

ASTOR big and beautiful boom killer volume mascara
oh wow – yes this mascara makes BIG and BEAUTIFUL lashes. I love the wand and the product stays put the whole day without irritating my eyes.. I hate it when mascaras flake and often the tiny parts end up in my eyes – so thats a BIG plus for that one and actually all the other ones I have tested. not one flaked! another nice thing is that you can either wear one coat for a rather casual look and then later on apply more coats for a more dramatic eyemakeup. 11.75 CHF (mascara 12ml, makeupremover)

volume_glamour

BOURJOIS PARIS volume glamour mascara
this mascara promises VOLUME and GLAMOUR and I felt both, the wand separates the lashes and therefore applies more volume the glamour factor comes with the rest of the makeup and the compliments that one gets for her mascara! compared to the ASTOR mascara this one is a bit more decent and less dramatic. perfect for everyday business look. 10.75 CHF (mascara 12ml + kajal)

Bourjois_Volume_1_Seconde_Mascara_1403188600

BOURJOIS PARIS volume 1 second mascara
volume in one second, well that was not true for me as it takes me a bit longer to apply mascara 🙂 but once I was done there was the volume. so far all of the mascaras have held their promises and thats a big PLUS. the 1 SECOND volume mascara has a medium sized wand and separates the lashes like the volume glamour mascara. I felt like this one is a bit more dramatic than the one mentioned before. but still after layering a couple of coats I had a very stunning eye look.
13.00 CHF (mascara 12ml)

3605970009274_DEEPBLACK_HYPNOSE

 

LANCOME hypnose drama mascara
the queen among the mascaras and not only due to its prize. I can really see a difference between this high end product and the rather cheaper ones. so in the end you get what you pay. I know, it is not always the case, some cheaper products can do more than other more expensive ones but with the mascaras I gotta stick to what I said. you feel the difference in the consistency and how easy it can be removed. thats a huge bonus because our eyes area are very sensitive and rubbing the eyes with a cotton pad full of eye makeup remover irritates the skin. I got the DRAMA mascara in a set with eyemakeUp remover and I found that a great deal!
40.75 CHF (mascara + eyemakeup remover + eye cream)

THE BOYFRIEND LOOK

this is something I could not wear everyday, for this look I really have to be in the mood! the BOYFRIEND jeans got very famous during the last couple years and can be found from highend to lowend fashionbrands and shops. I got my favorite pairs at ZARA and C&A and what I really fancy about them is the destroyed parts where the legs can be seen. I think this gives it a bit of a feminine touch because you can then see the shape of the leg. so what I wanna share with you today are the ROTHIRSCH silk knot cufflinks by the swiss designer Beat Leisibach. they are handknoted, come in eight different colors and can be ordered online here: http://www.rothirsch.com/product/silk-knot-cufflinks one pair costs 12 CHF and the set with all the eight colors costs 60 CHF. I think this makes a wonderful present for people that love wearing shirts with cufflinks. (free shipping within switzerland)
