My Beauty Routine And A New Blog Design

[EN]:

Do you like my new blog design? I've decided to change it a little, to be more easy to navigate (I have a navigation bar now :D) and more appealing. All was done by yours truly, even the butterflies are from an old drawing of mine. I hope you'll like it.

For today's post I'm going to show you some of my beauty products, that I currently use or have used recently :D I must say that what I'm showing you guys is what I use on a daily basis, my beauty products are way to numerous to be shown in a single post, and as this is a fashion blog and not a beauty one, I stick with only the basic things :D

[RO]:
Va place noul design al blogului? Am decis sa-l schimb un pic, sa fie mai usor de navigat (i-am facut si bara de navigatie :D) si sa fie mai placut privirii. Totul a fost facut de mine, pana si fluturii fac parte dintr-un desen mai vechi de-al meu! Sper sa va placa.

Pentru astazi m-am gandit sa va arata cateva dintre produsele mele de machiaj, pe care le folosesc in momentul de fata sau pe care le-am folosit recent :D Trebuie sa precizez ca ce veti vedea in acest post este doar o mica parte din produsele pe care le detin. Aici va prezint ceea ce utilizez eu zilnic, ca sa spun asa. Probabil ca daca ar fi sa va arat toate produsele as transforma blogul intr-unul de beauty si nu de fashion, si nu vreau sa fac asta :))

 1. Guerlain  Parure Powder no. 04 (way too dark for me) / Pudra Parure de la Guerlain nuanta 04 (prea inchisa pentru mine, am folosit-o intr-o perioada in care m-a prins soarele un pic mai tare)

2. Givenchy Photos'Perfexion Foundation no. 05 / Fond de ten Givenchy Photo'Perfexion nuanta 05

3. Dior Forever Foundation no. 020 / Fond de ten Dior nuanta 020 (un pic cam oranj pentru pielea mea)

4. Guerlain Parure Extreme Foundation no. 03 / Fond de ten Guerlain Parure Extreme nuanta 03 (exceptional de bun, dar nu pot sa-l folosesc deoarece este mult prea inchis pentru mine, lumina de la Sephora e groaznica, daca sunteti interesate il vand, este plin si il dau la mai bine de jumatate de pret :D)

5. Chanel Mat Lumiere Foundation no. 30 / Fond de ten Chanel Mat Lumiere nuanta 30

[EN]: 

So, currently I'm using the Givenchy foundation, it's one of the best I've tried so far, great coverage, looking natural and perfect for people with yellow skin or yellow undertones as myself. If you're not in the yellow range you have to try the other 3 foundations from Dior, Guerlain and Chanel, all have great coverage and if you know how to apply them correctly look very natural on the skin :D

[RO]:

In prezent folosesc fondul de ten de la Givenchy preferatul meu la ora actuala (dupa ce am folosit ani de zile Chanel pana au bagat pigmenti maro in el de se vede oranj pe pielea mea acum), care este perfect daca aveti tenul mai galben si nu cu tonuri de maro sau roz, plus ca acopera bine si arata extrem de natural. In schimb daca n-aveti probleme cu nuanta tenului, trebuie sa incercati fondurile de ten de la Dior, Guerlain si Chanel, toate acopera extrem de bine si arata natural pe piele, dar asta numai daca ti se potriveste nuanta si stii sa-l aplici corect.

1. Too Faced Eyeshadow infused with primer Bedroom Eyes / Fard de pleoape Too Faced care contine si primer in nuanta Bedroom Eyes

2. Flormar Eyeliner in green colour / Tus de pleoape de la Flormar nuanta verde crud

3. L'Oreal Infallible Concealer  no. 02 / Corector L'Oreal Infallible nuanta 02

4. Eyeshadow Sephora no. 41 / Fard de pleoape Sephora nuanta 41

5. Urban Decay Eyebrow Kit in Sugar Brown / Kit de sprancene Urban Decay nuanta Sugar Brown

6. Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion in Eden / Primer Urban Decay in nuanta Eden

7. Golden Rose Blue Eyeliner / Tus de pleoape albastru Golden Rose

8. Golden Rose Black Eyeliner / Tus de pleoape negru Golden Rose

[EN]:

Mostly using from this bunch the black eyeliner and the concealer. The primers aren't making any difference for me, my eyelids are pretty oily so nothing sticks even with primer, so I'm stuck with eyeliners :D

[RO]:

Cel mai des folosesc tusurile de pleoape si corectorul, restul mai putin. Primerele pentru mine nu fac nicio diferenta, tot nu tine machiajul, asa ca prefer sa raman la varianta sigura si durabila, adica tusurile :D

1. Lancome Hypnose Star Mascara 

2. Maybelline Rocket Mascara

3. Rimmel London Scandaleyes Mascara

4. Lancome Hypnose Mascara

[EN]:

I've used many years Lancome Hypnose Mascara, my favourite, try it and you won't regret it. The Hypnose Star is good but don't really like the formulation. Currently I'm stick with Rimmel London's Scandaleyes, I love how it makes my eyelashes and I didn't think that a low price mascara would be so good. And the Rocket from Maybelline bought it to try it and didn't really like it!

[RO]:

Am folosit ani de zile rimelul Hypnose de la Lancome, preferatul meu, trebuie sa il incercati. Hypnose Star, pe de alta parte, este bun, dar se usuca foarte repede in tub (spre exemplu daca Hypnose clasic poate sa tina si 8 luni fara sa se usuce, Hypnose Star a tinut cu greu 4 luni). Momentan folosesc Rimmel Scandaleyes, face genele sa arate extrem de bine, nici nu-mi vine sa cred cat de bun este pentru pretul pe care il are. Iar Rocket de la Maybelline l-am cumparat din curiozitate si nu m-a dat pe spate.

1. Guerlain Gloss (doesn't have it's shade number anymore and I can't remember)

2. Chanel Levres Scintillantes Gloss no. 106 / Gloss Chanel Levres Scintillantes nuanta 106

3. Chanel Gloss (don't remember the shade)

4. L'Oreal Glam Shine Gloss no. 505 / Gloss L'Oreal Glam Shine nuanta 505

5. L'Oreal Lipstick Caresse no. 06 / Ruj L'Oreal Caresse nuanta 06

6. L'Oreal Lipstick Caresse no. 301 / Ruj L'Oreal Caresse nuanta 301

[EN]:

I'm mostly using the no. 2-6, the Guerlain not that much. Try the lip glosses and lipsticks from Chanel, you'll love them.

[RO]:

Momentan folosesc mai mult numerele 2-6, glossul de la Guerlain mai putin, e ceva mai dificil de purtat. Daca puteti, incercati glossurile si rujurile de la Chanel sunt geniale.

1. Avenea Cleanance Toner / Lotiunea tonica Avene Cleanance

2. Oxyance Moisturizing anti-shine cream / Crema hidratanta pentru ten mixt de la Oxyance

3. Avene Cleanance K cream / Crema Avene Cleanance K

[EN]:

Love the Avene products, I also use the washing gel, it's not in the picture from the Cleanance set also.

[RO]:

Foarte bune produsele de la Avene, mai folosesc din aceeasi gama si gelul de curatare.

1. Calvin Klein Euphoria

2. Versace Versense

3. Kenzo L'eau par Kenzo

[EN]:

Three of my most used perfumes, love them all. These are my favourite along with Lancome's Hypnose that I've just finished.

[RO]:

Trei dintre parfumurile mele preferate, alaturi de Hypnose de la Lancome pe care tocmai l-am terminat.

 1. Alfaparf Illuminating Smoothing Cream (for straightening my hair) / Alfaparf crema pentru indreptat parul

2. Alfaparf Cristalli Liquidi (oil for hair) / Alfaparf ulei de par Crislalli Liquidi

3 Nivea Diamond Gloss styling spray / Fixativ Nivea Diamond Gloss

[EN]:

Probably you all wondered why my hair looks so perfect and straight (my hair is naturally curly not straight :D). Well here lays the secret, straightening cream and oil applied on wet hair (you don't wash it, these are special products that don't need rinsing) and then start to straighten it with a flat iron :D After that apply some styling spray and you're done.

[RO]:

Probabil ca v-ati intrebat de ce arata parul meu perfect drept si aranjat, ei bine nu e de la mama natura asa, este vorba de ceva munca, mai ales ca eu am parul cret :D Secretul consta in produsele de styling folosite. Asadar luati o crema de indreptat si care sa protejeze impotriva temperaturilor mari si un ulei de par, ambele sa nu necesite clatire (cele pe care le folosesc eu le pui pe parul umed, foarte putin produs trebuie pus, crema cam cat o bomboana mentolata si apoi peste crema 2-3 picaturi de ulei, se freaca in palme si aplicati pe par), uscati bine parul, de preferat sa faceti asta seara, iar a doua zi il indreptati. Aplicati un pic de fixativ, nu unul super rezistent pentru ca va trebui sa va spalati pe cap imediat, ci unul un pic mai flexibil. Chiar daca cel de la Nivea pe care il folosesc eu pare ca ar fi puternic (dupa acel 4 de acolo) e extrem de slab. Cam asta ar fi procesul :D

 

Until my next post!

Chanel Fall/Winter 2011/2012 Ready-to-Wear

Hello there!!

So I've decided to make a little review on Chanel's Ready-to-Wear F/W 2011/2012 in this post, cuz the fall is here, soon the winter will be too so i wanted to show you the visions that some designers had for this season.

I'm gonna start with Chanel, cuz i love the creations of Karl Lagerfeld, and later on I'll post the work of some other designers as well.

Karl Lagerfeld decided to go on a chic masculine style dominated by black and grey (2 of my fav colours), there's also a bit of red and white. We have some classic Chanel silhouettes and a lot of knitwear (I must say that I'm not a big fan of knitwear).

From what you'll see in the photos the main trends that Karl Lagerfeld proposed are: for colours, mostly black and grey, and as for clothes, voluminous jackets, blazers (the jackets are worn over the blazers), skinny jeans, leggings, skirts over velvet leggings, masculine pants and suits, luxurious jumpsuits, some capes (they make me think of knights) and as for the fabrics knitwear is almost everywhere, tweed, velvet, some silk and lace. So a very boyish collection with a powerfull rock vibe.

Don't know why but this collection reminds me of the Japanese street fashion, visual key and the creations of Japanese designers. Is one of my fav collections from Chanel so far, totally my style, dark colours, many layers, oversised jackets, blazers, skinny jeans.

I just luv it. Hope u'll like it2.

Am decis sa fac un mic review asupra colectiei pret-a-porter (sau "gata de purtat" cum ar veni la noi) pt toamna-iarna 2011/2012 a casei Chanel, pt k a venit toamna, in curand va veni si iarna asa ca am vrut sa va arat ce propun unii designeri pt acest sezon.

O sa incep cu Chanel, pt ca iubesc creatiile lui Karl Lagerfeld, si mai incolo o sa postez si creatiile altor designeri.

Karl Lagerfeld s'a centrat pe un stil chic masculin dominat de negru si gri (2 dintre culorile mele preferate), regasindu'se si un strop de rosu si alb. De asemenea cateva siluete clasice ale casei Chanel si foarte multe tricotaje (desi tb sa spun ca nu sunt un mare fan al tricotajelor).

Din ceea ce o sa vedeti in poze principalele trenduri pe care Karl Lagerfeld le propune sunt: pt culori, in mare negru si gri, iar pt haine, jachete voluminoase, sacouri (jachetele fiind purtate peste sacouri), skinny jeans, colanti, fuste purtate peste colanti din catifea, pantaloni cu croiala masculina si costume, jumpsuituri somptuoase, cateva pelerine (care ma fac sa ma gandesc la cavalerii din Evul Mediu), iar pt materiale domina tricotajul, tweedul, catifeaua si ceva matase si dantela. Asadar o colectie foarte baietoasa cu o puternica tenta rock.

Nu stiu de ce dar aceasta colectie imi aminteste de street fashion'ul nipon, de visual key si de creatiile designerilor din Japonia. Este una dintre colectiile mele preferate de la Chanel, fiind total pe stilul meu, culori inchise, multe layere, jachete supradimensionate, sacouri, skinny jeans.

Pur si simplu o iubesc. Sper sa va placa si voua.

And now some photos (taken from http://www.vogue.it/).
Si acum niste poze.
