A green and grey look with Swimming

Today I tried out my new MAC Swimming Eyeshadow. It's so cute and it can be very vibrant if you pat it on.
Unfortunately I didn't get any good pictures of my whole face today. I don't like how I'm looking these days. I've never looked so white and tired in my life. I hate it, if my skin appears that white. It gets such a muddy grey undertone then. But my health problems keep on tiring me and I don't leave the house very often. :-(

Hope, you like it! I know, the combination of warm lipstick and cool eyeshadow is a question of taste, but sometimes I like to play with this contrast.

I know I look white and tired, I have some serious health problems since 2 weeks :-(

Some new Maccies ♥

Hey guys! Some new Maccies found their new home in my palettes, lol.

Peachykeen Blush: This is a Sheertone Shimmer Blush. I looked for a peachy blush, at first I wanted to have Melba, but since it is a matte (and I'm not so into matte blushes) I decided for Peachykeen. So cute and gives a very warm glow.

Beauty Marked Eyeshadow: I wanted a kinda darker version of Sketch to darken my crease more but don't use black, especially on purple or brown Eye Make Up. Beauty Marked is a Velvet finished eyeshadow, like a black-brown with bordeaux red glitter.

Tilt Eyeshadow: I'm not kidding, this is the very first lighter blue eyeshadow I bought in my whole life. I've always been afraid of light blue eyeshadows, because there have been so much cruel make ups with that kind of shade in the past, lol, and much people think of prostitutes with light blue eyeshadow and red lips. Well, I don't want to wear it that way. I think in combination with Prussian, Deep Truth or Contrast it will look pretty. Its finish is Frost.

Swimming Eyeshadow: Since I am into greens, I had to get this. It's a little bit more blueish and intense than Juxt. It is a Lustre... I know many people don't like Lustres because they find it too glittery, but I like this finish and with a good base on they last as long as any other finish.

I will try out some of them tomorrow. Maybe I'll do a new FOTD.

Yours,

Sisa ♥♥♥

Project: Hair growing! October 2009

Proceedings at my project! My hair grew about 3cm since the beginning of August. That's a nice advance, yeh?

The hair in the left pic isn't really red, the flash just made it appear like that ;-(

[German] Lakshmi Khol Kajal

Ich möchte euch ein Produkt vorstellen, das es mir sehr angetan hat: Der Lakshmi Khol Kajal Cold.


Lakshmi ist eine Firma für ayurvedische Kosmetik. Ayurveda ist eine Art indische Heilkunst. Neben den Kajals gibt es auch noch Lippenstifte, Parfums, etc. Für weitere Infos schaut einfach die Website an, www.lakshmi.de

Es gibt diesen Kajal in verschiedenen Ausführungen: Normal, Cold, Sensitive und für Männer (der ist dann farblos). Außerdem wird noch zwischen den richtigen Khol Kajals, die mit Kohlenstoff aus Bio-Ghee geschwärzt sind, und farbigen Kajals unterschieden.

Ich habe mich für einen schwarzen Khol Kajal Cold entschieden. Diese Version enthält Kampfer, was eine kühlende Wirkung hat. Der Kajal ist besonders gut für die Wasserlinie geeignet und schützt vor Fremdkörpern und Entzündungen. Durch die zusammenziehende Wirkung der Inhaltsstoffe sollen sich asuch kleine Äderchen zusammenziehen und die Augen dadurch weißer wirken. So einen Effekt kann ich durchaus beobachten.

Ich finde dieses kühlende Gefühl sehr angenehm, zumal ich sehr sensible Augen habe die öfters mal gerötet und leicht entzündet sind. Trotzdem will ich gerne immer Kajal tragen, das gehört für mich einfach dazu als alte Bollywood-Schranze *lol* und so war das genau die richtige Alternative für mich.

Von der Haltbarkeit her unterscheidet er sich nicht von anderen Kajalstiften.

Preislich gesehen ist dieser Kajal natürlich heftig, ich habe rund 19€ dafür im Online-Versand bezahlt. Aber für Leute mit sensiblen Augen und welche, die viel am PC arbeiten oder lange Autofahrten machen lohnt sich das schon.

Meiner Meinung nach ein bisschen unpraktisch ist die Mine. Sie ist kegelförmig (siehe Foto), und je weiter man runterkommt, desto klobiger wird sie. Da wird dann zum Auftragen ein Applikator oder Pinselchen empfohlen. Soweit bin ich noch nicht, aber ich kann mir vorstellen, dass das mit Pinsel auf der Wasserlinie nicht so prickelnd ist...
Mal sehen, was ich da noch für eine Lösung finde.

Aber für euch erstmal eine dicke Empfehlung von mir für dieses Produkt!

Eure
Sisa ♥♥♥
