A Quick Catching Up

I have so much to say, and so little focus and discipline to do so at the moment :D Please forgive me, good readers and brands I am in contact with, but as I could go into labor any day now I feel slightly distracted :D

But to catch up a little: all my skincare (including body) comes now strictly from the pharmacy, and I am loving it. My skin feels great (finally also on my body - all hail Vichy NutriExtra!) and it's really just a higher quality experience, for not a too high price (although I must admit I am ever so curious about the Benefit b.right! skin care line). I am going to stick to shopping in the pharmacy I think. And I am also going to go there for makeup!

Recently I wanted a nail polish that was a bit special, and so I managed to pick up a bottle of Dolomia nail polish in the pharmacy. The ingredient list is great (definitely free of anything remotely nasty), and I am very happy about this 6 EUR find of mine. Having seen many appealing, simple and elegant products I will definitely return to the pharmacy next time I need to replace a makeup item. I am a simple girl at heart, and pharmaceutical formulas just feel so clean and safe for some reason. Not to mention colors are usually on the sober side, prices are affordable and most makeup items made by pharmaceutical companies hide some great skin care benefits as well.

Having said that, I need to confess to loving my new Benefit stash (although Posietint still needs to get some getting used to from my side, I do absolutely and in particular adore Dandelion and Ooh La Lift!), and also my selected Sephora Collection items (new hydrating blusher, jumbo eye pencil, concealer and vinyl lipstick pencil), so for the future, I guess I will just mix pharmacy with Sephora and Benefit :D. On the other hand I have grown some second thoughts about liquid liners. I mean they are still great, but I did see some lovely pencils in the pharmacy, and I am also very tempted by a BADgal liner in color 'Espresso'. Perhaps I also miss the creaminess of a pencil, and the ability to smudge it out a bit when I want to (or when I apply it slightly crooked).

I will make a list of reviews I need to make, and also update on how my beauty routine works after actually having had the baby (and consequently having a lot less time and effort to put into makeup).

And I will try to be here, as much and as soon as I can! :)
