Something new from Smashbox:

I just bought the Smashbox Primer ''Photo Finish Light'', which is appropriate for acne- and oily skin. A review is coming up on this product, once I've tried it a few times.

What I wanna have right now...

1: Clinique Redness Solutions Instant Relief Mineral Pressed Powder. 2: Smashbox Eyeshadow Trio ''On Stage''. 3: Lancôme Teint Idole Silky Mat. 4: Makeupstore Nailpolish ''Lynn''. 5: Makeupstore Nailpolish ''Agneta''. 6: Makeupstore Cuticle Care Oil. 7: MAC Lipstick ''Viva glam''. 8: Makeupstore Sparkling Powder ''Frost silver''. 9: Clinique High Lenghts Mascara.

The new summer collection ''Softbox'' from Smashbox

Have you seen the new summer collection from Smashbox called ''Softbox''? The definition of that name is basically natural-looking makeup, just the way that I want it during the summers!:) As I see it, there are six new lipglosses in sex different colours, and they're all looking like something that you can wear everyday, which is great. And then there's a palette that contains 12 different colours, and there are a lot of brown shades in it, which will also look great this summer (and autumn?). You'll probably be able to do a really cool brown smokey eye-look with this palette! According to me, there's nothing ''special'' about this collection if you know what I mean, but I suppose it's a collection that you can basically be using everyday. GREAT!

Bronzing: Budget-Medium-Expensive

1: ''Lumene Sun Mineral Bronzing'', this bronzing powder comes in two different shades. It's minerals (don't know if it's pure minerals though) and it has got great reviews. The cheapest one of them all too! 2: ''IsaDora Bronzing Powder'', this product is great! There's a looot of product, if you haven't seen this product I just have to tell you that it's HUGE! It's very long-lasting also and it comes in 1 shade. 3: ''IsaDora Mineral Bronzing Powder'', this was the bronzing powder I bought for a few weeks ago. It's loose powder, which I personally LOVE! The packaging is awesome and so is the product. I highly recommend this one.

1: ''MAC Bronzing Powder'', this product promises you a shimmery but natural result. It has great reviews and comes in 5 different colours, so you won't have any problems with finding the right shade for you! 2: ''Smashbox Fusion Soft Lights'', I was so close to buy this product but I didn't (don't really have any explanations for that). This product is suitable for every skin-tone, and it also comes in another palette-colour. 3: ''Makeupstore Bronzing Powder'', you can use this product on bare skin or over a foundation (as with any other bronzing-products basically). This one is available in 4 different shades.

1: ''YSL Terre de Soleil'', this is an awesome product considering that this is the only of those 9 products in this post that contains SPF (according to the web page), it has SPF 10 by the way. This will give you a transparent feeling and it comes in 3 shades. 2: ''Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess Duo'', this one is available in 2 different shades. It's non-oily and makes your skin appear glowy and fresh. 3: ''Lancôme Tropique Minerale Loose'', this is also a loose-powder, which I like. It's also a mineral product so big plus for this bronzing powder. It does also contain aloe-vera which protects and helps your skin to heal. Seems great!!

Looking for good blothing products like me?

I've been looking for make-up brands that sells blothing products for a very long time now(!). The make-up market is so freaking big now that it's hard to just choose one product when there are like 10 more identical products like it. However, I suppose I'm not the only person who's looking for a product that provides sheer(?), and that's why I'm doing this post!

1: Smashbox Anti Shine Compact- is a compact product that contains a mirror and touch-ups for the day.

2: Makeupstore Blothing Powder. This is a powder that I've actually heard very good things about. You're applying this invisible powder during the day when you feel like you're having shiny areas in your face.

3: Makeupstore T-zone, which is a liquid product that I assume is ideal for applying with your bare fingers where you want to make your face more unshiny, like your T-zone.

4: Dior Long Lasting Setting Powder, is an invisible powder that you're applying after your foundation to provide shiny areas in your face.

5: Mac Blot Film, contains blothing papers.

6: Clinique Stay-Matte Sheer Pressed Powder, is a powder that's actually not invisible. It's suitable for a more greasy skin, and this will give your skin a very matte-look that will last for many hours.

7: Makeupstore Oil Blothing Paper is the cheapest product of them all. This is like the Chanel's Oil Control Tissues but much more cheap. I've to admit that Chanel's tissues looks a lot more chic than Makeupstore's but I don't think that it's really any difference between the two products (except from the price).

8: Chanel Natural Finish Loose Powder- is more a finish powder that you're applying after your foundation to create a matte finish. But I guess it's a product that's very identical to the blothing products. This provides sheer and as I said it gives your skin a matte finish.

9: Smashbox Photo Set Finishing Powder SPF 15 is a loose powder that you're applying after your foundation so your make-up will last for many more hours. This is an invisible powder. The Photo Set Finishing Powder doesn't just give your make-up a longer stay-on it also gives it a more matte look. It's oil-absorbing, so your skin won't look shiny if you're using this. It's an all-in-one powder!

10: Chanel Oil Control Tissues. This is a product for the one who wants to have touch-ups during the day. The blothing papers creates the perfect mattness and removes all the shine from your face.

I'd love to have...

1: Smashbox ''Bronze lights''. I'd like to use this bronzer in the summer.
2: Clinique ''Anti-Blemish Solutions Starter Kit''. I really really want to get rid of my pimples, and I've heard that this products is great. This is a starter kit that you're going to use for 4 months. Great idea, and fun to try something new!
3: Eyebrow brush from Face Stockholm called ''Spooly #20''. I'm going to use this after I've fixed my eyebrows.
4: YSL's new lipstick in a cool pink colour wouldn't I say no to. It's not anything necessary for my right now though.
5: A primer from Smashbox called ''Photo Finish Foundation Primer''.
6: A cool lilac eyeshadow, like this one(!). ''Colour Surge Eye Shadow Soft Shimmer 2.5 g'' is the name of the product!
7: A foundation brush from MAC, ''130 Short Duo Fibre Face Brush'' has great reviews!
