Best of 2017 – Makeup

Best of 2017- Makeup

Hi guys,

So I have done my 2017 skin and hair care favourites already, read HERE. Now it’s best of 2017 – makeup time 😀 I was checking all my 2017 blog posts and I have predominantly done all makeup posts, especially lipsticks and swatches. Ya, a girl needs her lipsticks and I have way too many now 😀 Hence, this post will be long, especially the lipstick category :p

Since the past two years I had mentioned in my favourites post, that I was stuck in winged liner and matte lipsticks phase. I am still stuck with matte lips but ditched the winged liner this year, for oodles of mascara and fluttery lashes with dewy, highlighted skin. I mostly use only concealer or a BB/CC Cream as base as I prefer my base to be as light as possible. I don’t like wearing foundation everyday, it’s only for makeup tutorials and special events.
