Hi,
The last time I bought make up was when we were still in Prague a few months back. The whole process was relatively painless, because the girl in MAC was really helpful and she was able to pick the right foundation for me. She matched my skin tone better than I have ever been able to myself – it really makes a difference when you go to someone who knows what they are doing. I still have a lot of my MAC foundation left, but since then my skin has gotten lighter and the make up just doesn’t look good on me anymore. I think that when I first got to Prague my skin still had a bit of a summer glow left on it from the 5 months we spent in Sunny Malta. So far this season I have been avoiding the sun (and to be honest there have not been so many sunny days here yet) and my skin tone has shifted back to it’s winter hue. Unfortunately there is no MAC store where we live right now so I was left to chose from the line of my other favourite brand – Clinique. It wasn’t easy to decide which tone was the right one but I think I eventually made the right choice. It’s called Perfectly Real Makeup and it is shade 02.
I also had to get a new powder, because I wasn’t happy with my old one, L’oreal’s True Match (it didn’t match with my skin anymore). This time I went for powder from Clinique again, because I have had positive experiences with this powder in the past. My new powder is 08 Transparency Neutral.
The last product I bought was my new lip gloss. I still have a little bit left of my MAC Cremesheen Glass which I like very much, and I would have bought it again, but as I mentioned earlier we don’t have MAC here. My second favourite lip gloss is definitely Juicy Tubes from Lancome. I picked Raspberry Ice and it smells and taste like the juicy fruit chewing gum.
If anyone has any makeup tips please feel free to share them in the comments :)
Clinique is great! It is very natural and lightweight! I love it ! =D
Can you do a makeup tutorial on youtube? =D
you are one amazing person and a lot for sharing.
My all time favorite foundation is Makeup Forever HD. It has a very sheer application yet the coverage is almost full. I work as a professional makeup artist and I love how it looks in photos and on film. To learn how to do your makeup like a pro I would recommend looking at Pixiwoo’s channel on youtube. They are two of the best I’ve even seen.
I use Clinique too. It’s a fabulous brand. Thanks for the posting.
Hey Zuzana!
I found a makeup company that I love and is super easy to apply. I have naturally clear skin with the occasional blemish (I think you might be the same way!) and this makeup is really great! It’s “Everyday Minerals”. It takes literally 2 minutes to do my makeup with a kabuki brush and I use the same face powder as a concealer (I just apply it with a more dense brush). It’s all natural and supposedly helps clear up blemishes too! I even have dry skin and it doesn’t make my skin look flakey :)

Shiseido dual balancing foundation is A-mazing. You don’t even need that much of the product for full coverage. The trick is to pat it on areas you most need the coverage( nose,temples,under eye area)and finish off with Revlon Colorstay mineral finishing powder in Sunkiss 030 and mascara. I used this makeip routine all summer and have got many compliments because it just looks so flawless and makes it seem like you really aren’t wearing any makeup:)
people whatever you put on your skin which is not eatable, is totally unhealthy. instead of this bad product, put the coconout oil on your body, from head to toe…and you feel real difference.
