Too Faced Love Flush blushes – Rainbows and unicorns

I am going to start this post with a really unpopular opinion: I don´t like unicorns. Or rainbows. Nah, let me rephrase that: I like rainbows in the sky, but I don´t need them on my mug, my brushes or anywhere in my living room. And I don´t need glitter, hearts and kittens either.     Because despite not being minimalistic in my makeup hoarding, I prefer sleek, Scandinavian vibes in my surroundings. Which is probably why Too Faced as a brand never really appealed to me. Quite frankly, when…

MaxFactor Creme Puff Blush – Are they a dupe?

A dupe for what you may ask? A drugstore dupe for the famous, but expensive Hourglass blushes of course! To answer that right away: I don’t know.

I mean, I don’t read this stuff, and I don’t think…

A natural flush – My Blush Collection

As I mentioned before, I have a tendency to look like I am ill. Or have had way to little sleep (which is true most of the time). My Blush Collection   To stop people from making me sit down and have a glass of water, I rely heavily on the power of blush, both powder and cream. Again, this little overview is MAC-heavy, just because I genuinely love their products and bought a lot of them back in the days. The Neutrals If you would have asked me before…

Save some space with this beauty

Whenever I traveled by plane, fees for overpacking my suitcase were inevitable. Books were the one thing, heavy but absolutely necessary for holidays. As I am a fast reader, I usually took about 5-6 books for a two weeks getaway. And by books I mean a 1000 page historical novels or something like this. So before our 4 weeks road trip to Chile, Mr. Loca got me an iPad, and I have never traveled without it since. The other thing is skincare and makeup.  Just three outfits? No problem.  Two…
