Simple and natural summer makeup...

I think I've found my summer-faves. In the summertime I want to be outside and enjoy the sun, and the fact that it's possible to wear as little clothes as we do inside the house, also outdoors... So, to use as little time as possible inside I have to find as few and good products as I can to make a nice natural summerlook, and here they are:



On the pic you'll see No7 cleansing foam, No7 Protect and Perfect with SPF 15, elf lipgloss with SPF 15, elf correcting concealer, elf mineral booster, elf flattopped powder brush, elf shimmerpalette and elf eyebrowkit. Oh... And there's one more thing (forgot to set it up for the pic), -a nude or pastel nail polish...

This combination gives me a light coverage and an even skintone, I can highlight browbone and cheekbone, and best of all, I have a nice protection against the sun. I don't recomend this for licking the sun, but it's perfect for staying outdoors more than you do in the cold, dark winter... ;)

There's only one thing I miss... I want a natural, light, matte, good quality, cheap eyeshaddow. Do you have one that you recomend?!? Tell me!

Review on Yves Rochers BioCalmille 2i1-cleanser and face gel

I'm looking for a face-cleanser and a moisturiser, and hoping to find one that doest cost a million... I have never had a problem with sensitive skin or a lot of acne, so I dont think I'm too hard to please... My biggest problem is that I've always had the oppertunety to buy whatever product I've wanted, now on the other hand I have to think about the cost aswell...

The last weeks I've tried out a 2 in 1 cleanser and a face gel from Yves Rocher, called BioCalmille. It says to be sensitive and contains biologic camomille.


To clean my face I use a cotton-pad with a grape-amount of this gel-cleanser. It looks like gel when you get it out of the bottle, but it feels like it's melting on your skin to a kind of tonic. The colour is light, fresh and green, and it has a fresh smell.


This gel-cream is light-light green, and has a fresh smell. It glides easily on your skin, and you don't need a big amount.

When I say that both the cleanser and the moisturiser has a fresh smell, I actually don't say that in a positive tone. Well, if it had a more subtile smell it would be nice and fresh, but personally I think they both have too much of a smell. It's ok for a bodylotion, but when you've got it all around the nose it gets too much. And this is not my biggest problem with this combination. I've got a dry and itchy spot right below my lips on my left side. I've never had anything like this before, but it looks like a baby-rash or something. Don't like it!

But I have to be fair. Even though this combination doesn't fit me, I've had a lot of other products wich I love from Yves Rocher...
