Hello dear readers :)
I am pretty sure that most of those who enjoy reading beauty blogs also enjoy watching YT videos of various beauty gurus. My passion for this "world" comes from watching YT beauty tutorials. When I first saw a beauty video I was quite amazed. I didn't know that something like that exists and there are numerous girls who are involved in doing YT videos. Since then I developed great relationship for YT, most of my free time (when I really have nothing to do) I spend watching youtube videos, learning new stuff on beauty products, application of make-up, fashion related information, etc.
There are some girls, who are the biggest inspiration of mine and I would like to introduce them to you even though I am quite sure you have seen one of their videos.
1. Dulce Candy
She is the first beauty guru I have ever seen. I came through her videos when I was trying to create a nice smoky eye, but couldn't manage to achieve the effect I wanted.
Since then I am so happy when a new video of hers appears in my subscription box. She does numerous make up tutorials, but I also love her outfits of the day because she has so many good ideas on combining different styles.
2. Fleur de Force
I adore Fleur because she knows a lot about skin care and has very useful skin care product suggestions. I enjoy watching her nail tutorials and outfits of the day. I appreciate that she shows also more accessible products not only those high-end products. I enjoy watching her vlogs too :)
3. itsjudytime
I've started to watch Judy's videos only recently, but instantly fell in love with them. She does many first impression videos and her opinions are very honest that is the thing which I appreciate the most.
She also does hair tutorials, me being very bad at doing my hair they come to me very useful because I've learned some tricks from her. I watch her daily vlogs too :)
4. Nicole Guerriero
Nicole does many amazing make-up tutorials. I completely adore her for creativeness and I am a little jelly-jelly for her skills :P She also has some useful DIY videos and hair tutorials.
I am also subscribed to other beauty gurus, but these four are my all time favourites and biggest inspirations.
Which beauty gurus are your favourite ones? :)
Are you as much obsessed with YT as I am?
Leave me a comment! I would appreciate it so much!
Kisses,
Carina...

...mint+pink...
Well, hello lovelies :)
I haven't done a make-up tutorial related post in a while, so yesterday I decided to take some pics of my look and create a post. It was a nice spring day and I wanted to wear only bright colours - that's why I went for mint jeans, plain white shirt and nude heels+handbag. As it came to me too pale, I decided to add more colour on my eyes and as I had berry pink nails I went for pink eye make - up too. :)
So this is my yesterday's look:
For creating this look I've used quite a lot products, but I had to make it long lasting because I knew that I will be running errands until late evening:
So let's go through the products step by step :)
1.as the first step I've applied Bioderma Sébium Mat anti-shine cream gel - this stuff is absolutely amazing, my T - zone was completly matt whole day, I've noticed that on imperfections and dryer spots it started to flake off, but I think it is mostly because of the BB cream, under foundation it would stay much longer
2. then I've applied Bourjois 8 in 1 BB cream (23 Beige Rose), more about this BB cream here
3. the next step were applying of the concealers, in my nose area I use Make Up Factory's concealer, to cover under-eye circles and blemished the Concealer Palette by Catrice Cosmetics and to highlight my under-eye Rimmel's Match Perfection Skin Tone Adapting Concealer in 030 Classic Beige
4. then I had to prime my eyelids to make my shadows last longer, I used Pupa Smoothing and Fixing Eye Primer
5. to make my "face" last longer, I fixed everything with Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder in 004 Sandstorm, as a blush I used Rimmel Match Perfection Blush in 003 Medium and also applied a little highlighter on my cheekbones,nose and chin by Catrice
6. I've started doing my eye make - up with L'oreal Contour Khol in 131 Jet Black (applied it to my upper lash line), for lower lash line Catrice Kohl Kajal in 040 White to brighten my eyes
7. the as a base eye shadow I applied colour no. 1 from Avon's Mega Impact Duo in Berry Electric
for highlighting my brow bone I used colour no. 3 from Pupa Pupart Eye Shadow Palette and also from the same palette colour no. 2 for my crease

8. I filled in my eyebrows with Essence Eyebrow Stylist Set and Essence Lash&Brow Gel
9. as long as eyeliner I used Artdeco Long Lasting Liquid Liner in 01 and for mascara L'oreal False Lash Wings and Pupa Vamp!
10. ...and last but not least, for lips I use this amazing lip pencil - Max Factor Colour Elixir in 55 Mysterious Hazel
I loved this look even though it is very simple, but it is very wearable :)
How do you like it? :)
And what about mint jeans, do you enjoy wearing bright colour pants?

...Bioderma haul...
Hello lovelies :)
I've been having some hectic days and weeks so I didn't have time to go to the stores and buy some pleasureable stuff for myself. I haven't bought a single beauty item in more than a month and that's unbelievable.
Yesterday I was forced to go the pharmacy because I ran out of my Bioderma micelle solution. I had to go to the pharmacy not to a regular drugstore because Bioderma is sold in our country only in pharmacies as it is claimed to be "medical" skin care.
I found out that they sell a big variety of Bioderma products, so I took a better look on them and purchased also two other items, here they are:
As you might see, every product is from their Sébium line, which is for combination or oily skin with inclination to breakouts. My skin can be considered as combination, mainly on chin, forehead and nose I have more oily skin (it isn't that bad,but still) and other parts are normal - not oily but also not dry.
I have tried only the micelle solution and I am completely in love with it, so I've decided it is time to try also other Bioderma products.
1. Bioderma Sébium H2O Micelle solution for combitation or oily skin
I don't use it as make-up remover, but after I have cleaned my face, I go through it with a cotton pad with this solution on it. Since I've been using it I noticed that I have less breakouts and small zits as I used to have. Also black spots (mainly on my forehead) have disapeared and if I have some I can get easily rid of them.
The quality of my skin is much better since I am using it, it is definitely my life-saver ;)
2. Bioderma Sébium Mat anti-shine cream gel
Since spring began I started to fight with a problem called "shiny skin". Even if I wear matifying powder I can't control my skin every single hour whether it is in good condition or my powder need retouch.
So I decided to buy this little product because it is supposed to matify, treat all the causes of shiny skin, regulate the sebum secrection, improve skin texture, etc. It can be used as a primer under foundation and it is supposed to lenghten the wear of make-up.
It has very light scent and also the texture is very light, not heavy but still not watery. It comes in an 40 ml tube.
3. Sébium Pore Refiner - a concentrate for dilated pores
I few days ago I've noticed that I have so big pores on my forehead and cheeks, I does not irritate me normally, but I've noticed it after I've put on foundation. It was so ugly, but couldn't do anything just bear it.
This little product is supposed to refine the skin, close the pores and make them less noticeable. On the official site it is stated that it melts instantly to skin. I am so curious whether it will help to solve my problem.
It has almost unnoticeable scent, very light gel texture and comes in a 30 ml tube.
I just can't wait to try these products. Tomorrow I will definitely use the pore refiner so check out whether there is an update ;)
I can't promise I will do a review on these products, because reviewing skin care products comes to me silly, because everybody has very unique skin and each skin needs different treatment - what may be good to me, it is not 100% that the same product will work on another person.
But check out the Bioderma site maybe you will find some goodies :)

Wishing you a nice rest of the week!
See you soon!
