<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I had my eye on these for a while now, because I think they could be a good dupe for the NARS lip pencils. I don't know what it is about lipproducts, but they always draw my attention.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I picked up 3 colors from the range. A classic red (Red Sensational), a berry toned one (Berry Much) and a daring orange (Fab Orange). These are the three colors I feel are all I'm ever gonna need. No nudes, I know. But if you know me even just a little than you'll know that I'm not the biggest fan of them. I'm a sucker for bright lips. If you take a quick look at my <a href="http://makeupdiaryofanaddict.blogspot.be/2015/03/mac-lipstick-collection.html" target="_blank">Mac lipstick collection</a> you'll notice this straight away. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So let's start talking about these babies. The packaging is quite standard for a lip pencil, which I like. It's easy to use and it doesn't take up too much space in your handbag. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I was pleasantly surprised when I first applied it. I thought it would be tricky to be very precise because the tip of these pencils is quite wide, but I actually didn't struggle with it at all. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">They also applied way creamier than I had anticipated. It was like love at first sight <3</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">But then the heartbreak came creeping in. My excitement from before turned when I realised that the creamy feeling I had when I first applied dissapeared after about an hour. I started noticing my lips were feeling really dry and uncomfortable. Even though the color stayed on all night (even through eating and drinking) this does bother me quite a bit. But maybe that's just me. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Overall I'd rate this a 7 out of 10.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">New York Apple - Frost</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">One of the very first colors I bought from MAC. It is a frost which I'm not too big a fan of, but NYA isn't so much of a 'in your face'-frost. I personally like to wear this color more in the colder months. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Syrup - Lustre</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is the first nude I bought from MAC. I will never be the biggest fan of nudes. I don't see the point in spending money on a lipstick when you can hardly see it on your lips, but I felt like I needed at least one in my collection. Syrup was the lucky one. And it turns out I'm the lucky one too, because I've started to love this color on me. It's a light pink with subtle blue and purple undertones to it. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Fanfare - Cremesheen</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The next 'nude' I bought from MAC. Or at least I thought it would be a nude, but on me it looks more like a coral pink. I go through phases with this one. I think this looks good on me in the summer when I have a bit of a tan, but when I'm at my lightest it just doesn't mesh well with my skin tone. </span></div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Cyber - Satin</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is definitely the darkest color I own. I don't think you can go much darker than this. Well there's black of course, but that's not a look I'm gonna go for any time soon. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Honestly, I was scared to use it at first. I bought it because I saw a lot of people with a dark lip like this which I loved, but it's a little different when you're gonna wear it yourself. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is a deep deep purple color. It looks amazing in the colder months on it's own, but I like to wear a lighter lipstick on top of it. Like MAC Bare Again. It's one of my favorite lip combos. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Faux - Satin</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Again another nude. I bought this at the same time I bought Fanfare. Faux has become my go-to nude lipstick. It looks amazing no matter how light or tan I am. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Mac Red - Satin</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I mean, you can't have a lipstick collection the size of mine and not have a red lipstick!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">There's not much to say about this one. It's just a true red lipstick. I love it =)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Candy Yum-Yum - Matte</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">One of my most daring lipstick. Candy yum-yum is a bright neon pink color. It took me a really long time before I was brave enough to wear this outside my house. I find the problem with this one is that it's so bright that I can't combine it with just any eye make-up. What I like to do is wear this with a simple cat eye and nothing else. You have to let your lips be the statement if you're gonna wear this color. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Please Me - Matte</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I thought I was gonna love this, but I don't. It washes me out. Because it's a matte finish it is really opaque. I think it would do better if it wasn't so full on. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Sin - Matte</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">A dark berry toned lipstick is the fastest way to my heart. I don't care what time of year or what time of the day it is, I will wear this. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Diva - Matte</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Diva is actually very similar to sin, but I like it just that little bit more. It has a slightly redder tone to it. I accidentily bought this one. I went in for Cyber and there must have been a miscommunication between me and the MAC girl, because I came out with Diva. No complaints here though. I went back to buy Cyber and I absolutely love Diva. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Impassioned - Amplified</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is the very first lipstick I bought at MAC. I wans't quite ready for the really bold and bright colors, but like I said before I'm not a nude fan. So impassioned seemed like the perfect compromise. I often forget I own this one, but I've recently rediscovered it and I'm planning on wearing it a lot this coming spring. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Girl about town - Amplified</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Girl about town was on my wishlist for so long. Every birthday, christmas and everything in between I asked for this and I never got it! And naturally everytime I went into MAC I forget to purchase it. But not last time I went. I made a list of which colors to get and I took it home with me. I have a feeling this will be one of my favorite colors for summer. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Chatterbox - Amplified</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Chatterbox was on that same list that Girl about town was on. I'm not so impressed with this one though. Again as with Fanfare I think this will look really good on me once I have a bit of a tan, but I wanted it to be a all-year-round color and it isn't. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Vegas Volt - Amplified</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I think of Vegas volt as the wearable version of Morange. When I want to wear an orange lip, but I'm not brave enough I wear Vegas Volt.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Morange - Amplified</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">When I am feeling brave enough I just get out the real orange! I know not everyone is a fan of an orange lip, but I personally love it. It think it's mostly about finding the right shade of orange for your skintone. My sister finds Morange a bit scary, so she bought So Chaud which is a redder orange and it looks amazing on her.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>Dark side - Amplified</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Lastly, Dark side. This is really similar to Sin and Diva, but this one is an amplified finish which is my favorite. It has amazing color pay-off, last for hours and feels nice and comfortable on my lips. Both Diva and Sin are Matte formulas and they tend to dry out my lips.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When I saw this mascara I knew I had to have it. Look at it.. It's gorgeous!! Although, I may be biased. Pink is my favorite color after all. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I've been trying it out for a good two months so I feel confident that I can give you a complete review. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When I applied it for the first time I was completely blown away by it's amazingness. It lenghtens, seperates and volumizes my lashes with just one layer. The above picture shows the before and after and that's with just one coat of this mascara.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So it looks amazing, but do I actually think it is amazing. The answer may suprise you, but no I don't!! Once I applied a second layer it clumped together my lashes and I was left with what looked like only 5 lashes. That's not a good look on anyone. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Other than that it did have a few other flaws in my opninion. Now these may not bother you that much, but they're a dealbreaker for me personally. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I like my lashes to still feel natural, but this mascara makes them so rock hard. It's not a pleasant feeling at all. And I think whatever ingredient makes them so stiff is also the reason why it's such a pain to take off. I use the Bioderma Sebium H2O to take off my make-up and I've never had any trouble before, but this mascara just won't budge. Even after taking a hot shower it barely came off. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I can honestly say I lost quite a few lashes because of this mascara. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you're okay with losing a few lashes and you're only interested in your mascara looking amazing than I would give this one ago otherwise I would give this one a pass.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you're interested in what mascara I do really like I did a post about my <a href="http://makeupdiaryofanaddict.blogspot.be/2014/11/my-favorite-mascaras.html" target="_blank">favorite mascaras</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">It's a really quick and easy look actually. I was late for a meeting, but I didn't want to leave my house with a bare face, so I very quickly threw this make-up on.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">As a base I used the L'Oréal True Match foundation. I always seem to reach for it whenever I'm going for the natural but flawless look. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I skipped concealer as I don't really have any spots except for a tiny little one on my chin. I used a little extra foundation on it as well as on my dark circles (which aren't that bad to begin with).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I then set everything in place with my Clinique stay matte sheer-pressed powder which I use all the time. I don't really use any other powder. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I didn't use any contour or bronzer for this look as I wanted to keep it really simple. I did use some blush to put some color back into my face. The one I used is Mocha from MAC. I often forget about this one, but everytime I use it I get reminded of why I love it so much. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">At this point I was already late and needed to get my ass out of the door, so instead of filling in my brows I ran the Maybelline Browdrama through them to give them a little definition. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Now there is no way that I'm leaving my house without a little mascara on. Today I opted for Benefit's They're real mascara. I know I said I wouldn't splurge on the full size in an earlier post, but man this is one great mascara. Who knows, maybe I might when I run out of mascara one day (that's not bound to happen any time soon). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When I was preparing for a MAC lipstick collection post, I was reminded of my Impassioned lipstick. It's one of the very first lipstick purchases I made and I haven't really worn it much since then. Since I kept the rest of my make-up so simple I figured a bright lip wouldn't be too much. Especially on this miserable rainy day. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As promised I'm sharing my evening skincare routine today. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It's not very different from my morning skincare routine. For cleanser and toner I use the exact same products, so if you want to know how I use them and what I think about them you can check that out <a href="http://makeupdiaryofanaddict.blogspot.be/2015/01/my-morning-skincare-routine.html" target="_blank">here</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">After I cleanse and tone I like to use The Body Shop's Drops of Youth bouncy sleeping mask. I recently discovered this product through FleurDeForce. She talked about it in a skincare video and I was intrigued enough to try it out. If you want to know how to use it or what she thought of it you can watch the video on her <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/FleurDeForce" target="_blank">YouTube channel</a>. I personally love it and and since I've started using it I noticed that my skin has been getting smoother. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Also once a week I like to use a face mask to really clear out my pores. The one I've been using for quite a while is the Caudalie purifying mask. It's not a thick consistency at all which I like a lot. I usually apply it about 10 minutes before I get in the shower and after I've shampood and conditioned my hair I rinse off the mask and cleanse my face. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The same as with my morning skincare routine I don't like to overload my face with products, so these are all the products I use.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What products do you use for your evening skincare routine? Please let me know in the comments below or find me on twitter @_MakeUpDiary_</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Given that my skin has been getting a lot better recently I thought now was as good a time as any to tell you about my current skincare routine.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What's important to keep in mind here is that no 2 skins are the exact same and you should always look for a routine that works for your skin. What works for me might not work for you, so don't be dissapointed too quick. Moving on from what I just said, I do find it helpful to look around what other people use so that I can find new products to try.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I like to start off my routine with the Bioderma Sebium H2O for oily skin. Even when I'm not wearing make-up I still like to do this step. You should know that a micellair water can not replace a cleanser. I feel like a lot of you out there think that micellair waters are quick and easy cleansers, but they're not. They can be used as a make-up remover or to freshen up your skin throughout the day, but never as a cleanser. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">After that I cleanse my skin using my Clarisonic. I'm currently using the Garnier foaming cleanser. I'm not so sure if I like it or not. Apperantely it's not good to use foaming cleansers. I didn't know this before, but according to Caroline Hirons, who you probably all know, they strip you of essential oils and leave an alkaline base. Sounds complicated right. It's not. It means that you create a perfect base for bacterias to settle in your skin which in turn leads to breakouts. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As a toner I'm using serozinc by La Roche-Posay. Again, Caroline Hirons recommended this, so it must be good. If you want to know about the importance of toners I did a blogpost about it <a href="http://makeupdiaryofanaddict.blogspot.be/2013/12/do-i-need-to-use-toner.html" target="_blank">here</a>. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As a last step in my skincare routine I use the Lancôme Dreamtone dark spot corrector. I use this as my moisturizer. It's actually a serum, which means that it will sink into the deeper layers of my skin so it won't only moisturize and fix the surface of my skin but all the underneath layers too. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And that's it. That's all I use for my morning skincare routine. I find that it's best not to use too much products on your skin. I'll do an evening skincare routine in the next couple of days to show you how I take care of my skin overnight.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I bought this foundation a few months ago, but I hadn't gotten round to trying it out yet because I got to wrong shade. Yeah, it happens. But now that it's winter and my skin has gotten a lot paler, I've been able to wear it. </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You know what. I really hate that! Whenever you buy a foundation at the drugstore you kinda have to guess if the color you're picking out is gonna be the right one. I hate that there is no way to test out the color.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Anyways, back to the foundation. It promises to improve the appearance of your skin because of the actyl C formula. Basically it means that they added a bunch of vitamins into its formulation. </span></div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Even though it caught my eye immediatly, I have to admit I don't like the packaging at all. It looks cheap! Yeah it has a glass bottle and it has a pump, which is a bonus, but it just looks so plastic-y.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The foundation however I do like. Lately I've been really liking drugstore foundations. I never was a fan before, but I feel like these last few years they really stepped up their game. If you don't have the money to splurge on a high-end foundation, don't worry about it. Drugstore foundations are just as good if not better. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I would say the coverage of this one is light, but it's definitely buildable to a medium coverage without looking cakey. The finish is more on the matte side, so if you're not into that then I would pass up on this one. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I haven't been trying it long enough to see if it actually makes a difference in the quality of my skin, but honestly I doubt that it will. I don't mind though. It's not like you buy a foundation to improve your skin. It's a bonus, but it's not a necessity. There's skincare to do that for you.</span></div>
<div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I love eyebrows. They might be my favorite part of doing make-up. It's just that they make such a difference. It's true what they say, eyebrows really do frame the face. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Of course everything starts with well groomed eyebrows. I'm not saying you need to start plucking your eyebrows like crazy, but just get rid of the strays and shape them up a little. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you're thinking about drastically changing the shape of your eyebrows, definitely get it done by a professional. If there's one thing I learned over these past few years it's that you NEVER touch your own eyebrows. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Anyways, back to the make-up part of it. Personally I like using a brow pencil to fill in the sparse areas of my brows. I tried using eyeshadow for some time, but my eyebrows just were just not having it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">To set my eyebrows I always reach for my Benefit speed brow which is a tinted brow gel. It's one of the few Benefit products that I actually enjoy, but it is a bit on the pricey side. I've been keeping my eyes open for a replacement and I found that in the Maybelline Brow drama. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What caught my eye about it was the wand. Most brow gels have a regular mascara wand applicator, but this one doesn't. It has a rounded end. I found it really difficult to work with it at first, because of this weird shape. It's also pretty pigmented, which caused me to have brow gel all over my forehead. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Needless to say, I didn't like it! But I wasn't willing to give it up, so I started learning how to make it work for my brows and once I did, I started really liking it. I don't even feel the need to fill in my brows anymore. This brow gel is tinted enough to take care of any sparse areas. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I would recommend to scrape of the excess on the brush like you would with a mascara, because if you get too much product on it, it will go everywhere. It's always easier to build up to the intesity you want than to have to take everything back off. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I picked this up in my local drugstore in late december and it has become a staple in my make-up collection. I use it every single day. My favorite used to be Mocha from MAC, but I haven't even touched that blush in this last month.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I was a little scared to use it at first, because it looks really bright in the packaging. Turns out I didn't have to be. It's actually a really subtle everyday color. It gives you that perfect sheer flushed cheeks look. It might be a little more vibrant depending on what brush you use to apply it with. I personally use the Real Techniques Blush brush.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Not to worry if this shade still scares you. There are a few lighter shades in the range. I would personally use them more as a highlighter, but I think they would look great on someone who has a lighter skintone.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I always feel like Belgium gets a little forgotten when it comes to beauty and make-up releases. Like, for example, the Rimmel fix & perfect pro primer. It's been years since I first learned about this product and I've been looking for it ever since. I hadn't been lucky until very recently when I came across it in the drugstore. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Of course I took it home with me, because I was excited to try it out and give you guys a review. I can't exactly remember how much I paid for it, but I'm pretty sure it was under €10. Either way it's way cheaper than any of the popular primers that are out there like the well loved and raved about Benefit Porefessional. Speaking of.. I really like this primer a lot more than the Porefessional. I just don't get what the big fuss is about that one. I bought it over a year ago and I rarely use it. I'm just not a fan of the texture and I don't think there is anything amazing about it. But I'm gonna stop dwelling on that, 'cause that's an entire post on its own. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So as I said, I really like the texture of the fix & perfect pro primer. It's a lotion-y, creamy consistency which is not too thick so it sinks into the skin rather quickly. And it does everything it promises to do. It smooths out any fine lines I have on my skin and it makes my enlarged pores dissapear whithout making them feel clogged up. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Like any primer nowadays it does the job and makes my foundation go on smoothly and keeps it in place all day long. I might need a little extra dusting of powder on my t-zone during the day, but that's because I have super oily skin, so if that's not a problem for you I'm pretty sure you won't even need to touch up your foundation. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you're in the market for a new primer and you don't want to spend crazy amounts of money on it that this might be the one for you. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This was not worth the money!! Seriously, I got so pissed off about this advent calender.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you followed my blog during blogmas then you must have noticed that I was getting irritated by the products I was getting.

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I admit my expectations might have been too high, but that's only because people kept hyping this calender. I can't imagine why they would. There are much better advent calenders out there. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This was the first and this will be the last advent calender that I get from Benefit. If you were looking in to getting one next year.. DON'T!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What advent calender did you get this year? Please let me know in the comments below or on twitter @_MakeUpDiary_</span><br />

I'm really sorry you guys. I really wanted to make it work, but with it being the holidays I've been really busy. But it's a new year now and I'm ready to start up my normal routine again.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So let's start of this year with talking about my favorites from last year. I discovered a whole bunch of new products in december and I'm excited to share them with you.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuBzKJ-Hhf6vtz3KJv-whIMY4yhjm4xRnWQBXR9wnkD8hW0w6ldDaxMIdwXKPA0p3g6UyBVtyyyNeXSlkoALeYbp4T9XUtfJp6QhNVxpkJGH1VpHL7QLEbJp4YJSLN-RXnjDnnQ7hD8xc/s1600/IMG_3422.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuBzKJ-Hhf6vtz3KJv-whIMY4yhjm4xRnWQBXR9wnkD8hW0w6ldDaxMIdwXKPA0p3g6UyBVtyyyNeXSlkoALeYbp4T9XUtfJp6QhNVxpkJGH1VpHL7QLEbJp4YJSLN-RXnjDnnQ7hD8xc/s1600/IMG_3422.JPG" height="426" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1. Lancôme Dreamtone </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you read my November favorites then you'll know that I absolutely adore the MAC prep+prime moisture infusion serum. Sadly, I ran out of it. Instead of going out and buying a new one, I decided to use up what I had and that's how I discovered the Lancôme dreamtone serum. I bought this a while ago as it promised to reduce dark spots and acne scarring. But once I started using my MAC serum this one kinda dissapeared to the back of my mind. It's a shame really, because it really is a great product. It's really pricey. I think I paid about €76 for it, but I would buy it again. I'm noticing such a difference in my skin. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2. L'Oréal True Match foundation</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This foundation is a favorite among beauty lovers and yet I was hesitant to buy it. I thought it would be too sheer and it wouldn't hold well on my oily skin. Somehow I convinced myself to buy it and I'm glad I did. It does give a lighter coverage than I'm used to, but I love it. It's the kind of foundation that I can just throw on and it will look great. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">3. Benefit 'They're real' mascara</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Again, this mascara is a definite favorite among the beauty bloggers. I got this in my benefit advent calender and I'm glad I did, because I would never spend the money on it. It just costs way too much for a mascara. I really like it though, it lenghtens and defines my lashes like no other. I'm keeping this in my special occasion drawer, because I only have two little sample sizes of it and I'm not planning on buying the full size any time soon. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">4. The Balm eyeshadow palettes</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I can't even begin to describe my excitement about these.. I think I own all of them. When I discovered them in stores in Belgium I went a bit make-up crazy and just got them all. Best buy ever!! I haven't even used any other eyeshadow brand this past month. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">5. Physicians Formula 'Happy booster' blush</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I remember a few years back this got a lot of hype in the beauty community, but it's been a while since I've heard about them. I still was really excited when I saw this though. It's now a staple in my make-up collection. It's a really sheer, beautiful everyday blush. I absolutely love it</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">6. Real Techniques Make-up brushes</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">OMG.. Get out of the way MAC, I have found my one true love <3 These brushes are AMAZING!! They are super soft, they apply product beautifully.. I just love them. I'm planning on doing a post on them really soon, so if you want to know what I think about them, keep your eyes open on this blog for the next few days..</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What are you're favorite products? Please let me know in the comments below or find me on twitter @_MakeUpDiary_</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Benefit advent calender was really exciting for the past 2 days. Two products that I've been wanting to try for a long time. The Stay Flawless 15h primer and Benetint. How good can this get.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I hope that from now on I'll be getting more of these exciting goodies. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'm sorry I didn't blog yesterday. Honestly, doing blogmas is a lot harder than I thought. And I don't have an extremely exciting life. I guess I didn't think this through before I started, but I don't want to give you guys half-assed blogposts. Which I feel like I'm doing right now. I guess if I was doing vlogmas it would be a little more fun to watch because you can see me in action. But is it really fun or interesting for you to read about me doing my laundry or organizing my make-up collection? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'm still gonna finish blogmas, but I might not upload a post everyday. I will try though. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Not that I'm not enjoying doing blogmas, but I'm looking forward to the 24th of december. It will be my last day of blogmas. I'm really looking forward to posting my regular reviews again. Not that I wouldn't be able to do them now, but I'm not really seeing how I can incorporate them inbetween my blogmas posts. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'm sorry I didn't do an update yesterday. I was having a bad day. I was honestly in such a bad mood that I couldn't be bothered to write a new blogpost. It started out in the morning. I opened up my Benefit advent calender and guess what was in it. Stupid sticky notes. I was so pissed, I can't even explain. I know that sounds really stupid, but guys I paid nearly €100 on this thing. This is just getting ridiculous. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I don't really know why I spent the rest of the day being in a bad mood. I guess I just couldn't shake off my dissapointment. You know what's also getting to me. The fact that the days are so short. Seriously, I think we only have about 5 hours of daylight. And here in Belgium the sun hasn't shined at all for the past week, so I guess this miserable wheater is dragging my spirit down a little.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Today I slept in late. I was having a good dream and I wasn't willing to let it go so I just stayed in bed a little longer. Who else does that? After I got out of bed I opened up my Benefit advent calender and I did something exciting today *finally*. I got the 'Dandelion' lipgloss. It looks really similar to the 'A-lister' lipgloss that I already got in this Benefit advent calender, but there's a slight shimmer in this one. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I spend the rest of the day working on household tasks and I watched some additional 'The good wife' episodes. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'm now about to get ready to meet up with one of my best friends. We're watching the 'Are you the one?' finale tonight. I know in America it aired yesterday, but it doens't air until tuesday in Belgium. No spoilers please. I think I have the perfect matches figured out, but I'm excited to see if they can pull it off. I am kinda sad it's the last episode already. I really liked this season and I really like the host Ryan Devlin. He's a cutie. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Today was a pretty standard day. I didn't do anything special at all. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I had a little trouble getting out of bed this morning after last night's concert. I had so much fun yesterday. It's been two years since I last saw Bryan Adams live in concert and it was just as great as I remembered. I got my sister totally on board. She liked his music too, but she was much of a fan. I think after last night that changed quite a bit. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As you can imagine I'm pretty tired right now. I didn't sleep at all and I worked late yet again. When I came home I made myself a quick dinner and did what I do most of the time when I want to have a relaxed night. I put on some youtube videos. I don't know what it is about these videos that I like so much, but I never really find anything on tv, so I just get on the internet instead.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Nothing exciting in my Benefit advent calender today. It was just a silver hair tie. There's only one other product I already own from Benefit which is the 'gimme brow'. I'm pretty sure I'll ne getting that in my calender as well, but I'm hoping everything else will be amazing, because honestly so far I'm not impressed. It kills me to admit this, but considering I payed just shy of €100 for this calender I expected more. I mean if I do a quick calculation each product would be worth €4,14 and I don't think that's the case at all. I'll keep you updated for the next few weeks. </span></div>

Like an actual fire. One of the houses that is situated next to my work went up in flames. I never thought a fire could spread that fast. I mean, you hear about it, but you can't imagine it unless you're actually witnessing it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It all happened around 2 o'clock. The street was starting to fill with smoke so we went outside to see where it was coming from and it turned out to be coming from one of our neighbors. We weren't even sure at first if it was an actual fire, because it was just a lot of white smoke coming out of the chimney, but within 5 minutes the sky turned black and there were flames coming out of the roof. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I feel so sorry for the family living there. It must be terrible to lose your house so close to the holidays. I can't even imagine what they must be going through right now. I guess the most important thing is that everybody got out in time and nobody was hurt.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">On a more positive not, my sister is staying with me for the next two days. If you're following my blogmas then you'll know that we're going to the Bryan Adams concert tommorow. I have to work 'till 6, so I won't have time to pick her up and get ready in time. So I called her and asked her if she wanted to stay over for the night. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Speaking of not having time. I might not have enough time to right a blogpost tommorow, so I'm thinking I'll prepare a TAG or a review that can go up instead. I hope you guys won't mind not having an update for a day. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As I'm writing this blogpost, I'm watching Salt with my sister. You know, the spy movie with Angelina Jolie in it. I'm not a huge fan of Angelina, but I do like this movie. I think it must be the 4th time I'm watching it and I still like it. I thought there would be a sequel, but I haven't heard anything about that. Does anyone know? Is it still happening?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Oh and before I forget. I finally got something I didn't already have in my Benefit advent calender. I got the 'It's Potent' eye cream. I took this as a sign to start using eye cream again. I have to admit I haven't used one for the past 3 or 4 months. And I haven't tried this one before so I'm excited to see if it gives any results. I did smell it just now and the first thing I will tell you is that it stinks. It really does. If you get the chance to smell it go for it and let me know what you think about it.</span><br />

But I like doing blogmas, which is why I'm still putting up this post, but don't expect anything amazing. </span><div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When I woke up this morning everything was fine. I slept great, I finally had more than two hours of sleep so I was happy about that. I got up, got dressed and had breakfast. And then of course it was time for my Benefit advent calender. Today I got the 'Stay don't stray' eyeshadow primer. I already have this in my make-up collection and I use it on a daily basis. It's not my absolute favorite. That honor belongs to the Urban Decay primer potion. I know I'm only on day 4 of this advent calender, but I'm really waiting for a new product. Everything that I got up until now I already own. Omg, I sound like such an ungrateful nag right now. I promise I'm not. </span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">After that I put on the tv. I started watching 'The good wife' today. Anyone else watch this show. I'm really liking it so far. I'm only on episode 6, but so far so good. I really want to start watching new shows, but I don't really know what to look for. If you guys have any good suggestions you can always let me know in the comments section below. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Around 2 o'clock I started feeling miserable. This might be TMI so I apologize in advance. Turns out it's that time of the month for me again. I was a little surprised by that because it's not supposed to be until next week. I don't know how many other of you ladies suffer from this. And yes, I really would describe this as suffering. I get an extreme migraine, my legs feel like they weigh 200kg and I'm really nauseous. I'm litterly not able to move. I just spent the rest of my day in the couch trying to sleep a little. Ironically I read an article online today in which a doctor or professor -I can't remember exactly- suggested that women should be granted payed sick leave when they're on their period. As you can imagine I'm a total supporter of that idea. I took some pain meds now, so I'm feeling a little better. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I haven't eaten yet since having breakfast, so I don't think I will anymore 'cause it's quite late now. I'm going to shower and I'm going staight to bed after, because I have to be up for work at 5.</span></div>
