Clinique Even Better Foundation - review

Hallå, holy-grail foundation! Jag köpte denna lite sådär på en höft. Och herregud vad bra att jag gjorde det!

Jag har färgen "01-Alabaster" som riktar sig till oss med ljus hy. Den är lite gul för min rosa hudton men om jag noga blandar ner den över halsen och käklinjen är det inte som helst problem. Denna foundation säger sig jämna ut hudtonen. Den riktar sig till de med dry/combination och combination/oily. Jag är oljig ibland på vissa ställen, normal på andra och torr på tredje ställen (ja, huden är ett märkligt fenomen) men jag känner att denna foundation varken fäster på torra partier eller gör mig oljig. Nu på sommaren får jag en glansig panna men lite Rimmel stay matte powder fixar den biffen!

Denna foundation ska inom 4-6 veckor jämna ut hudtonen genom att den minskar pigmentförändringar och "age spots". Jag har inte pigmentförändringar utan kämpar istället med ärrbildning efter acne. Jag tyckte inte denna foundation hade ingredienser som minskade ärren i mitt ansikte, men där använder jag andra produkter som ska ta bort det. Dock fick jag en uppenbart mer jämn hudton när jag hade foundation på. Jag fick inte några finnar av denna foundation och jag har som sagt en acnebenägen och superkänslig hud.

A lawsuit and Clinique chubby stick intense

I'm so happy to be back in the blogosphere! Work has been intense! I'm a lawyer and sometimes the cases just becomes to many. All clients have minor, and sometimes major, problems and they all need help (preferably yesterday). I have been running between trials, policehearing, clientmeetings and so forth. I've bearly had time to do my nails!?

I had a particularly great day a couple of weeks ago. A long and difficult case finally ended with a lawsuit. And I just had to treat myself. For the longest time the Clinique chubby sticks have intrigued me. However, the sherness of them didn't do anything for me. Either I have a transparent lipbalm och something with at least a little pop of colour. The normal chubby sticks were just to expensive to be worth a purchase when the colour payoff was next to nothing.

But as we all know Clinique launched the Chubby stick intense and I was beyond excitement. After trying, thinking, waiting, being a little cheap and so on this lawsuit finally gave me the golden oppurtunity. I bought the stick in the colour "heftiest hibiscus" and I tell you OMG I LOVE IT! It's so chic and effortless. I just slap it on and it gives me that instant lawyer-chicness that I do enjoy so much. And lately I have been completely addicted to the Maybelline colour tatoo in bad to the bronze. The orangetoned red stick complements a golden eye just perfectly. 

However, this particular day I felt extra giving and also bought a cleanser from Lancôme - gel eclat.

Here are all the Chubby Stick Intense, and I love the one I have so much that I want them all!

Perfect base and everything pink

These are a couple of my favourite things at the moment.

* Clinique Even Better Foundation
* a light pink blush from Miyo
* Estee Lauder perfume - pleasure bloom
* a sheer pink gloss from Clinique
* a bright pink lipgloss/lipstick from NYX

Together these create this pink, sweet, soft look. Perfect for everyday!
