Hello everybody!


As I promissed you last week, today we are continuing my magic adventure in a world of colorful makeup. If you want to read about the first part of this awesome event, I am inviting you to check out this post.

So this is how the second part of my adventure began. 
I was invited to the Inglot Boutique Miami Beach the next day too and being in the full Miami Swim Week, I'd thought to challenge the talented Inglot makeup team to make me a summer look that would successfully resist in a hot Miami sun at a fashion show.

This time the one who took care of my makeup was ”la bella Gina” - as I was calling her - please check her page and her amazing work. As I was explaining her what I am thinking about my makeup, she immediately knew and she decided to create a fun, colorful, makeup look, where the accent was on my eyes.

The products that were used for my makeup:

Gina warmed up my skin tone a little, just like Christina did the other day. She created a colorful summer look, yet natural, ready to be worn in the Miami's hot and humid atmosphere at a fashion show. Maybe you have noticed that I was using again the mattifying powder and after using it for two days in a row, I do like how it worked on my skin, given the weather here in Miami.

And this was my final look.

Isn't that green utterly beautiful? I am so happy that now it is part of my makeup collection.

When I am at a makeup session, my blogger's nature comes out and I must ask questions about makeup techniques, products, take pictures, I have to know and to document everything. So, I took advantage that MUA Gina was doing my makeup and I asked her, what makeup products would she recommend for a fair skin tone like mine in this summer season.

Down below you can see her recommendations and the secret key word is - WATERPROOF makeup.

Beautiful people, awesome event

 

My amazing adventure ended with the two fashion shows, part of the Mercedes-Benz Miami Swim Week 2014 that I've attended: one at The National Hotel, where I came to support my fellow beauty bloggers and another one at the W Hotel with the Inglot team.

Look at all those gorgeous models!

Later at night I went to another amazing fashion show at the W Hotel South Beach. I had a fabulous time with the Inglot team back stage where they did all the makeup for the show, I've met amazing people like the famous artist Anastasia the Great who painted with 24k gold foil, Edward J. Oberle Lopez - the wonderful person behind this event and I had a blast at the show. I couldn't be more grateful for all this!

Hello everybody!

This past week had been an amazing one for me, it was like a beautiful and restful dream from which you don't want to wake up. I have so many wonderful moments to share with you, so this post will be structured in two parts.

Everything started with the Inglot Boutique Miami Beach Swim Week Beauty Lounge event, where I had such an amazing time, I was pampered with beauty makeup sessions (yes, sessions!), I got to play with makeup and test their products and, the best of all, I've met some great people that are now very dear to my soul.

If you are not familiar with Inglot Cosmetics, let me tell you that this is an European brand, from Poland, with more that 30 years of business activity.

Now Inglot is one of ”the world’s leading manufacturers in colour cosmetics. Inglot currently has a presence at all major beauty happenings and events around the globe, from the runways of Fashion Week to the stages and sets of TV and Broadway musicals. 

Inglot succeeded in combining the latest scientific technology with intense and vibrant colours. Every product consists of high-quality ingredients and is being sold at fair prices. All Inglot cosmetics are produced within the European Union and 95% of them are manufactured in Inglot's own state of the art facilities. 

A wide range of colours and an impressive variety of products is something that makes Inglot stand out of the crowd. The range consists of over 1,500 colours with over 450 ways to improve your lips, 600 ways to enhance your eyes, and over 300 ways to portray your face, while the extremely rich collection of nail polishes consists of up to 400 shades. 

The jewels in Inglot's crown are its famous Freedom System, which gives the freedom to assemble custom designed palettes to meet any beauty needs, and the revolutionary O2M Breathable Nail Enamel that ensures oxygen and water vapor permeability. O2M Nail Enamel was created specifically for health reasons – not only is it fashionable and good-looking, but also leads to healthier and therefore even more beautiful nails.”

Personally, I have heard of this brand before, I have read about its products, but never had the chance to test, try them. This event was the perfect occasion to get my hands on these products.

The Inglot Boutique is located in the heart of Miami Beach, on the 8th Street between Washington and Collins, to be more specific - 224 Miami Beach. The beauty boutique is the ideal place for a pampering makeup session, carefree, where all your problems, stress melt away. Everything invites you in, from the chic location, to glam and comfy decorations, to those awesome makeup products. It's like a mesmerizing journey into the world of colorful makeup.

Now let's talk about my makeup, shall we?

Beeing very excited to try the Inglot products, I talked to Christina - please check and support her page, she's an amazing makeup artist - to create my signature look, which is a natural one. When I saw their new Freedom System matte lipsticks, I immediately knew that it had to be a makeup with bold lips. Me & matte lipsticks = LOVE. Christina did an amazing job, it was definitely something new to try for me. I was so amazed by her incredible attention to details, patience (especially that my eyes were so sensitive when putting crayon on my waterline) and flawless work. I wish I could be as half as talented as her.

Because I am so fair, she went and warmed up a little my skin tone. Down below you could see the makeup products that were used for my makeup. I wanted very much to try their new mattifying powder. With all this crazy weather here in Miami, I need a good powder for my combination skin.

If you are wondering, the gorgeous lipstick that you see in these pictures (and you saw all over my Instagram account) is from the new Inglot range of Matte Lipsticks and this is number 516. It is so wonderful, so versatile, I can't get enough of it and I am so happy that I discovered it right here at Inglot.

Beautiful people, awesome event

I just couldn't leave empty handed and abandon my beautiful matte lipstick behind, so I've bought my first Inglot products - the matte lipstick and a Freedom System palette so I can build my own customized beauty case. The matte lipstick was $9 and the freedom system palette $11, plus the applicable taxes. So excited! Also, I complimentary received the eyeshadows that were part of my makeup look - the Freedom System Shine Square Eyeshadow in number 08 and Freedom System Matte Square Eyeshadow in number 329. About the gorgeous green teal Freedom System Satin Rainbow Eyeshadow in number 135 I will talk more in my next post.

I had such an amazing time at this event! They invited me to participate the next day too, but more about those adventures, in my next post. 

Do you know Inglot cosmetics? Have you tried their products?

Hugs,

Hello everybody!

Looking back the other days at my blog's posts, I have noticed that my makeup section has been very neglected for quite some time. Yes, I know, shame on me! So, today I want to make it up to you with a colorful post about an event where I have participated a while back. It would be such a shame not to tell you about it, because I really had a great time. This post was on my blog's notes, but I have misplaced the pictures taken at the event and then I moved in the States, so this post remained unpublished. 

The event at which I have participated was the presentation of the ”Brow Bar” concept from Benefit which was launched at the Sephora store from Cluj-Napoca, Romania.

Finding out about this event, I have made an appointment and on the most expected day, me and my bushy eyebrows participated anxiously at the event. I had a very pleasant surprise to discover my favorite beauty consultant, Narcisa. You will remember her from my Guerlain makeup session. She took care of my makeup and, since the lady that was suppossed to come and present us the concept and take care of our brows did not arrive at that time, she stylized my eyebrows through makeup.

On this occasion, I have discovered a few Benefit products that I was very impressed with and, I had the opportunity to play with the about-to-be-launched at that time, World Famous Neutrals palettes.

The makeup session was such a fun experience, I had a blast. With Narcisa, I only can praise her, I felt wonderful, I loved the makeup that she realized on me, she knew every time what suited best for me when we were talking about cosmetics, her work is clean, flawless and she always gives attention to details. She is my favorite beauty consultant! She was very patient with me, I have got to play with all those Benefit cosmetics and I felt like a kid in a candy store.

Here are the products that were used for my makeup

Face:

”Hello Flawless Oxygen WOW” foundation in Fair

”Hello Flawless powder” in Petal

”Fake Up” concealer in Light

”What s UP” highlither

”Bella Bamba” blush

Eyes:

”Stay don't Stray” primer

”Sexiest Nudes Ever” palette

Brows - ”Brow Zings” kit in Light

”They're Real” mascara

Lips: 

”Fine One One” + ”Bella Bamba” lipgloss

Enjoy the pictures down bellow at the end of this post!

Did you like my makeup? Which products from Benefit do you like?

Bună tuturor!


Făcând o retrospectivă zilele trecute a postărilor de pe blog, am observat că secțiunea dedicată machiajelor a fost neglijată destul de mult. Da, da, știu, merit să mă trageți de urechi! Observând acest lucru, vreau să mă revanșez cu o postare colorată despre un eveniment la care eu am participat în urmă cu ceva vreme, dar, despre care nu am mai apucat să vă povestesc și ar fi păcat să nu o fac, a fost o experiență tare frumoasă. Postarea am avut-o în stadiul de schiță pe blog, însă, rătăcind pozele, urmând apoi mutarea peste Ocean, am tot amânat publicarea ei.

Evenimentul la care am participat a fost prezentarea conceptului de ”Brow Bar” oferit de brand-ul Benefit care urma să fie implementat și la Cluj-Napoca în cadrul magazinului Sephora Polus Center. Serviciul ”Brow Bar” avea să fie pus la dispoziția clientelor Sephora, care urmau să beneficieze de pensatul și stilizatul sprâncenelor.

Aflând de acest eveniment, m-am programat din timp, și, cu sprâncenele stufoase din dotare m-am prezentat și m-am pregătit pentru ziua cu pricina. Am avut o surpriză deosebit de plăcută atunci când am descoperit-o la standul Benefit pe Narcisa, pe care cu siguranță vi-o amintiți din postarea cu sesiunea de makeup Guerlain. Doamna de la București care trebuia să ajungă să ne povestească despre acest concept și să se ocupe de sprâncenele mele nu ajunsese încă, așa că m-am lăsat pe mâna Narcisei să mă machieze și să-mi ”stilizeze” sprâncenele cu ajutorul machiajului.

Cu această ocazie am descoperit câteva produse Benefit care m-au impresionat și, la vremea respectivă, am avut ocazia să mă joc cu noile paletuțe care urmau să fie lansate - World Famous Neutrals.

Sesiunea de machiaj a fost o experiență foarte plăcută, în compania Narcisei, despre care nu am decât cuvinte de laudă, m-am simțit minunat, machiajul realizat de ea mi-a plăcut nespus de mult, de fiecare dată știe ce produse mi se potrivesc, lucrează curat și acordă mare atenție detaliilor. A fost foarte răbdătoare cu mine și astfel, am putut testa în voie produsele Benefit puse la dispoziție, m-am simțit ca un copil într-un magazin cu dulciuri.

Pentru machiajul meu s-au folosit următoarele produse:

Machiajul tenului:

Fond de ten - ”Hello Flawless Oxygen WOW ”- nuanța Fair

Pudră - ”Hello Flawless” - nuanța Petal - un ton mai închisă decât fondul de ten

Corector - ”Fake Up” în nuanța Light

Iluminator - ”What s UP”

Blush - ”Bella Bamba”

Machiajul ochilor:

Primer - ”Stay don't Stray”

Farduri - paletuța ”Sexiest Nudes Ever”

Sprâncene - Kitul ”Brow Zings” - nuanța Light

Mascara - ”They're Real”

Machiajul buzelor: 

Buze - ”Fine One One” + Lipgloss ”Bella Bamba”

Vă invit să vă bucurați de pozele realizate la acest eveniment!

Ce spuneți? Vă place machiajul meu? Folosiți produsele Benefit?

A voastră,
