January favorites!


The first month of the year is over, and as everyone seems to be saying, January has gone by ridiculously fast! To be honest January has been a month with both happy and sad times for me, it wasn’t exactly the start of the year that I was hoping for, but you know what they say things have to get worse before they get better.   



Since January is over, I thought I would share some of the things I’ve loved during the month. Enjoy!
Mascara
 
Telescopic by L’Oreal is one of my all-time favorite mascaras. I can always trust it to make my eyelashes look super long and nicely separated.
Liquid eyeliner

Master precise liquid eyeliner by Maybeline is a fantastic eyeliner because it just creates a really nice precise line and it dosen't smudge, which i have had problems with in the past with other liquid eyeliners.
 
Concealer pen


This cocealer by La Roche-Posay has to be one of the best concealers I've ever used. It gives a high coverage and dosen't crease at all. I like to use it under my eyes and sometimes on my spots and it just covers beautifully without looking cakey.

2in1 Eye make-up remover
 
This eye make-up remover by Garnier is a really great and easy eye make-up remover. It doesn't irritate my eyes or leave them feeling oily or greasy which I feel some eye make-up removers do.
 
Moisturizer

This moisturizer by Vichy is probably one of the best hydrating moisturizers I’ve ever used. I use it every day & night and it just really keeps my skin hydrated (especially in the winter), and it works as perfect base for my make-up.
Nutriextra Oil

This dry oil by Vichy really gives a deep-down nourishment to the skin without leaving any oily residue. I love how healthy this makes my skin feel and look and how the moisturized sensation really lasts.
Lip balm
I have tried hundreds of lip balms and this is probably one of my ultimate favorites. it really nourishes and reliefs your lips. 
Lipliner
I've really been loving this lipliner by Barbara Helener this winter. I love how easily it goes on and how blendable it is. I wear it on its own and with lipsticks.    
 
Lipstick
 
 
This lipstick by Estee Lauder (in Rose Tea) is one of my favorite lipsticks. I love the formula and how creamy it feels on the lips. it is perfect for a pink/brown nude lip and suits both people with fair skin and people with color.     
 
These were just some of the things I enjoyed using throughout January. Hope you enjoyed reading it :)
Love, Jazmine

Things I've been loving lately


 
I haven’t posted anything for a while because of all my exams and other stressful things, but I really miss blogging so I thought you know what? I’m going to post something today!
So this post is kind of a mashup between the things I loved throughout May and the things I am currently loving!

Vichy Normaderm


This purifying pore-tightning toner by Vichy is one of my favourite products at the moment! It's a great toner which clenases your skin gently but very effectively. A good thing about this product is that it is suitable for different skin types. This will Work great if you have sensitive skin or if you have oily or combination skin, the reason to why it's great if you have oily or combination skin is because it contains salisylic acid, which keeps your skin's oil balance in check.
 

Vichy (Again)

 

I use this product every day and night and I can seriously not get enough of it, it's one of my favourite creams of all time! Now it's actually a 24hr hydrating mask, but I have to admit I like to use it as a moisturizer. It's a super soothing and plumping mask which I absolutely love.

Avéne Thermal Spring Water

 

I use this Thermal Spring Water from Avéne for different things. I use it the exact way as I use my Thermal Spring Water from La Roche Posay, which I talked about in my April favourites. So if you haven't read that post and want to check it out, then here it is! http://simplyjazmine.blogspot.dk/2014/05/april-favourites.html
 

Baby Lips

 
I have wanted to get my hands on a Baby Lips lipbalm by Maybelline for a long time now and I finally got one last month! The one I bought is called Cherry Me and I have to say that I personally really like this product, it glides on smoothly, it's very moisturizing and has a great hint of colour.
 

The Fault In Our Stars

 
 
I am sure that most of you are familiar with this amazing book. This has to be hands down, one of the best books I've ever read in my life and therefore ofcourse one of my favourite books ever! John Green (The author) really did an amazing job with this book, everything from the beautiful story between the two main characters to all the amazing quotes. After reading this book I can't wait to get my hands on some of his other works! - If you haven't read it I really recomend that you do!
 
 
These were some of the things I've been loving lately :) What have been the things you guys have liked or enjoyed recently? 
Love, Jazmine xx

April Favourites

April is over so I thought i would share some of my faveourite things I've been loving!
Heres some of the things I have been loving:

                                                             Mascara



So I just recently bought this mascara and I really love it! it makes my lashes long with no clumps! Another thing I really like about this is that a little goes a long way! You don't really need to apply tons of coats to see a difference, which i just absolutly love, i hate those mascaras where you just have to put several of coats on to see a differnce!

 

                                                             BB Cream

 I've really been loving this BB cream by Garnier this month! I have combination skin so this one for oily and combination skin just works really well for me. I used to use the anti-ageing one by Garnier which i like but i definatly like this one better! the reason is because for once i feel like this one gives a lot more coverege than the other one! I feel like I only need one layer of it for daily use which makes everything in the morning so much easier! And last it's a lot more matt than the anti-aging one which means I don't have to powder my entire face!

  Thermal Spring Water

 
 
Ok so I use this Thermal Spring Water from LA ROCHE POSAY for couple of different things. It's really great to use since the warm weather is slowly sneaking up on us!

1) To set your make-up: Once I've completed my make up look for the day I like to spritz my face with it. Beacuse it acts to set my make up in place.
2) Through out the day: I sometimes use it throughout the day as a mist because it's fine enough not to cause my make up to "melt".
3) Plane rides or long trips: Being stuck inside a plane which is pressure controlled with recycled air for hours is not good for your complexion. Therefore this is a great thing to carry on in your handbag, so you can spritz your face when you feel like your face needs some refreshment.

4) Workouts: This can really help you cool down either during your workout or after your workout.

Make up remover 

 
 


What I really love about this product is that it's a 3 in 1. It acts as a cleansing milk, a toning lotion and an eye make-up remover! Another really good thing about this is it has captelae which helps to trap impurities. I like to use this both day and night.

      Effaclar duo


 
I'm already on my second tube of this amazing serum. I use it everyday both day and night and I like to use it after I've cleansed my skin with the Vichy 3 in 1 cleanser. A thing i really like about this is that it genuinley feels like nothing on your skin, and it acts as a really good primer! I feel like i really can see a difference whenever i use this underneath my make up, it just brightens my skin in a way no other serum has.


 Lipbalm


I love Vichy lipbalms and this Nutriextra is so good! seriously probably one of the best ones I've ever tried! It really moisturizes my lips and I feel like the balm stays on for so long, I really hate it when you buy a lipbalm and it just fades away after 2 minutes. Therefore i love it!

 

Lipgloss

Personally i don't feel like I can pull off bold lips so therefore i really like this lipgloss by Maxfactor (vibrant curve effect).
it's a nice sheer red lipgloss that just adds a bit of color and shine. It's shade is called dominant and it smells really good!
 

    Concealer


 I like this concealer by elf because i think it gives a nice coverage without being too much. Another thing i really like about is it stays in place the entire day without creasing, i hate concealers that crease, so this has been a great product. I have the concealer in the shade apricot beige, and I've been using it ever since i bought it.  

Clutch

 
I have been loving this clutch by Adax (a danish brand) through out the month of April, beacuase one it has a hand strap! that way I know I won't loose it easily, and two it holds up so much place, without being too big, so that's just an absolute plus!
 

Song 

And lastly my favourite song of the month has to be a song by Lukas Graham called "Happy home" the song is just so good that i have been listening to it on repeat. Heres the song if you wanna have a listen to it.  


 
These were just some of the things that i enjoyed using throughout April.
Hope you enjoyed reading it :)
