// MAC Lipstick & Lipliner Swatches

Hello Internetians 
(yes, I just made that up but I'm gonna call you guys 'Internetians' from now on bc it's cool ok? ok.)
How are we all today?
Well, speaking for me I can say I'm freezing my butt off at the moment. 
I'm at my dad's, which is in the north of Germany, and it has been raining for days now, it's windy and just cold in general. And guess what?
I didn't take any pullovers with me when I was packing my suitcase.
Ugh. And I thought it's summer.

Anyway, I've been asked to blog about my MAC lipsticks and, as you probably read above, this will be today's post.


I don't have a lot as I'm not wearing them everyday but these lippies and lip liners are the loves of my life.

Starting with the lipliners:


These were 16€ each and actually, I love wearing plum and soar on their own, like without an actual lipstick.
But you should only do that after putting on some lip butter or else your lips will be really dry.

The lipsticks:



Diva - Honeylove - Velvet Teddy - Cyber - Brave

Each lipstick was about 20€.
 Diva.Honeylove and Velvet Teddy have a matte finish while Cyber and Brave are satin.
I usually wear Whirl with Velvet Teddy for creating the ultimate Kylie Jenner lips (as I'm a student and I can't afford plastic surgery this is the best way haha) or Soar and Brave.
My latest lipstick purchase was, as you can see or as you've seen on my Instagram, Diva and I've read that I could use Plum as a lipliner and I'm deffo going to try that :)


I'm going to dedicate a post about what they actually look like on my lips in the near future, maybe even combining it with a Kylie Jenner lips tutorial haha

// Introducing: Lifehacks! #1 Better skin

Hey Internet!

Yea, I'm still alive.
And I've got to apologize for not posting for weeks but school just took over my life. 
Anyway, I'm on summer holidays now which means enough time for blogging! YAY!

During the last few weeks of school I tried to think of new ideas what I could blog about besides hauls and reviews and I came up with some lifehacks.
They'll mostly be about healthy snacks but the first one will be different.

As you may know (and as I already said that multiple times), my skin simply sucks and is extremely sensitive. Having clear skin is something I've dreamed of for years.
Of course, you could say "Then why didn't you go see the dermatologist" but I'd answer "Because I'm insecure about my skin." 
I know I shouldn't be and I know that dermatologists deal with problems which are worse than my pimples and blackheads... But you know...

Anyway, I've found something which really helped me and I want to tell you guys.
First of all: I'm NOT a dermatologist. 
And I'm not sure if these things will work for you as well. 

Products I used:


The Body Shop Olive Cream Body Scrub

Yes, it's not explicitly for your face and it could be too irritating for your skin, that's what I thought as mine is sensitive af but it somehow worked for me haha
Just don't be too harsh while rubbing it onto your face :)

Balea Soft & Clear night moisturizer 

This creme contains zinc and salizylic acid, it mainly reduces facial redness.

In addition to these products you should focus on your eating behaviour.
I'm currently trying to cut short on sweets (had some chocolate today tho because it's my birthday haha) and fast food and I think it helped a lot eventhough I didn't change it because of my skin but because I felt like all that stuff made me sick (which it actually did).

So remember: eat healthy and drink lots of water, try The Body Shop body scrub and a moisturizer with a bit of salizylic acid and zinc.
