let's talk beauty


I know that you guys are probably so tired of my endless wishlists but I just had to share with you 
some of my current beauty favorites. I absolutely love make up and all things beauty and one of my
favorite things to do is get ready for a night out. I recently got some new goodies in from Sephora
which has to be my new favorite go to store. Unfortunately they don't ship to Iceland but I try to
use the chance to send to my family and friends when they are in the US. Here above are some
of my favorite make up products that I highly recommend.

I always start by applying primer (I use the HD Primer from Make Up Forever - here) and then I
apply foundation. On basic days when I don't feel like wearing to much make up I use a tinted
moisturizer but on other occasions I use the "Studio Fix" Foundation from MAC. I love this one
since it covers really well and it's not oily at all. After foundation I apply concealer under my eyes
and on red spots, I am currently using the "Select Cover Up" from MAC. I use a bronzer to contour
and I use a basic bronzer from MAC or "Dallas" from Benefit (here). I just got a new blush from
Benefit called "Coralista" (here) and I am loving the color. The Illuminator from NARS is also a
great blush as well. For mascara I am currently using "They're Real" by Benefit and I have to say
that it's amazing. It makes lashes very long and full but the only con is that it doesn't last as long
as I would have wished. At the end of they day it starts to get really dry. For highlighting I just
got a highlighting powder from MAC that I have been lusting after for a while, I got it in the color
"Soft and Gentle" and it's the best highlighter that I have. I also have and love "High Beam" and
"Sun Beam" from Benefit.

  3. I absolutely love High Beam from Benefit - I use it all year round, but tend to add a little bit of if to my cheeks and brows in the warmer months, to achieve a dewy fresh look. I used it on my wedding day and I'm happy to report that it stayed on for the whole day - even after kissing and hugging lots of people!

  4. Ég hafi alltaf vilja að eiga MAC HIGHLIGHTER í SOFT AND GENTLE, þegar ég fékk það loksins er ég ekki að nota það einu sinni og finnst það ekki ´spennandi´lengur :/

  5. I agree, I love high beam and MAC's highlighter. They make you look so flawless, although it's too drying in the winter for me to put it on. Great picks!!
