Beauty Essentials for Fashion Week

Milan Fashion Week ended today and the craziness has moved to Paris, where we all can't wait for the YSL and Dior shows. This was my Beauty Survival Kit for Fashion Week where the important factors when choosing the make up are the long lasting effects on the skin. A light make up will be picture-perfect just as seen on the runway shows.

Sephora Anti-fatigue moisturizing gel

A fresh gel to awaken the skin and moisturize all day. Cause when we wake up in the morning after having attended a party the night before the effects of the sleep deprivation are there and won't go away. This gel is refreshing and gives a glow to the skin.

L'Oreal Revitalift Repair 10 BB Cream 

I've been using BB creams in the past year, preferring them to the foundation. It must be said that I don't have visible skin problems which need heavy coverage so BB Creams work just fine. The L'Oreal Revitalift Repair 10 BB Cream has and extra firming factor which makes the skin feel smoother.  

Giorgio Armani Bronze 2012 Collection Face Palette

The face palette from the Giorgio Armani Bronze Collection comes in 2 shades ‘Seashell Pink’ and ‘White Foam’. Northing says 'healthy skin' more than a  beautiful natural glow and this palette for the cheeks has entered my Must Have beauty product. Read more: Giorgio Armani 2012 Make Up

Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette

There is nothing I can say about this eye palette that you don't already know.  The Naked 2 with its 12 pigment-rich, taupe and greige neutral colors is perfect for a day and night make up. I prefer using the matte colors during the day and the sparkly ones during the eveing. I love to make the smokey eye with different shades of chocolate more than doing it with black. Read more: Beauty Collections at Sephora 

L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara 

I don't have long lashes my self, but this mascara works great on lengthening what is there giving a deeper look.

Sephora Maniac Mat lipstick I've tried every long lasting lipstik there is. Someone tried even to convince me to get the YSL Rouge Pur Couture Vernis a Levres. No it didn't work and it is very sticky in my opinion, but it has received great reviews from Beauty Bloggers.  Nothing works better for my lips than this Sephora Maniac Mat lipstick. The price also is very nice  €14.90, which means I'm planning to get some more colors apart the classic red.

L.I.L.Y by Stella Mccartney Fragrance

Every fragrance I use during a certain period is linked in my mind to the events that have happened during the time I was wearing that specific scent. So for Fashion Week I choose L.I.L.Y. from Stella McCartney with top notes of lily of the valley, moss and black truffles. This is a non-invasive parfum so that you don't have to intoxicate the ones seating close to you in a runway show. During Milan Vogue's Fashion Night Out they also engraved my initials in it AT, so now it feels even more personal.   Read more: Stella McCartney New Fragrance L.I.L.Y. 

L’Occitane’s Relaxing Pillow Mist 

L'Occitane Relaxing Pillow Mist is designed to be lightly sprayed to the pillow at night. I didn't beleive in the beginning it would actually work  but I was very surprised how it helped inducing a peaceful sleep. Now I can say I'm addicted to this Pillow Mist.
