I am very sorry that there were no posts last week. There were some major problems with the server and I was away for several days so could not deal with that.

I actually did schedule the posts for the whole week but they all were erased. I will try to re-write them at some point…

There is so much I want to tell you about but I will  start with showing you what makeup I took with me when I was away. I personally really love such posts so hope you will enjoy it, too.

I am actually VERY impressed with myself as I did not take a lot of unnecessary products and packed only the essentials. I wanted to have at least some variety but without taking too much.

Here is what I took with me:

Face

1. Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat. I always have it with me!

2. Mini High Beam from Benefit. I really love miniatures for travelling.

3. I always try to take foundations in small pots and the bottle usually takes a lot of space.  This is Daniel Sandler’s Invisible Radiance Foundation.

4.BECCA Compact Concealer in Latte. I actually can’t believe that  haven’t writtena bout it yet. Will have to do it soon.

5. Daniel Sandler Watercolour Creme -Rouge Blusher in Hot Pink. My must-have, adore it!

6. Jouer Cheek & Lip Tint in Petal.

7. Clarins Bronzing Duo SPF 15 Mineral Powder Compact in Light. It is from the summer 2012 collection. Will write about it later.

8. Clarins Beauty Flash Balm. One of my favourite products ever.

Eyes

1. Benefit Stay Don’t Spray  primer. Great product, will write about it later.

2. Inglot  AMC

I have been colouring my hair for years mostly because I loved trying new shades and because I get bored of  a certain colour after some time.

Now that I don’t colour it, I am bored of course already, but I don’t think that after I’ve managed to grow my natural hair colour I am in for something permanent.

I have been using colouring conditions which wash off for a ‘natural’ looking shades. But last week Kevin Murphy’s Colour Bugs caught my attention. They look like a great and fun product.

So far  they are available in three colours:

It’s Sunday, so this means that it’s time for a beauty/makeup (and not only) inspiration of the week.

By the way, you can follow me on Pinterest as I try to post there several times per week. It is more personal and not only about makeup.

First of all, I am loving this  timeless beauty look created by Wendy Rowe for Burberry for Harrods Of London which I’ve spotted on Twitter.

I have never tried Deborah Lippmann products but after the feature over at Karla Sugar and the video with Deborah, I am now in love with her! What a great personality and  professional. This video is almost 30 minutes but I highly recommend watching it!

You probably know that I am a huge fan of Dior’s makeup for all the shows as it always looks stunning. Vogue UK have chosen their favourite Pat McGrath looks for Dior. And here is one that

I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Easter! I hope you are having a lovely day.

And here is a picture  for everyone who celebrates it next weekend, I really like it !

I was very busy with work this week so did not have that much time to browse beauty related photos and stuff but here are some things that caught my attention. And this post won’t be only about beauty…

First of all, the May cover of Elle magazine (UK) with Emily Blunt. I absolutely adore Emily and Elle is probably the only magazine that I buy quite often so I am happy about that.

I am  also excited about the new film from Woody Allen which is called To Rome With Love! If you have seen Vicky Cristina Barcelona  and Midnight in Paris  and loved those you will probably get excited, too.

And what about this gorgeous Dolce &  Gabbana AW  collection and makeup? Watch a video with Pat McGrath telling about the products she used.

I find these graphic cat eyes fo
