Time for New Make-up products?

I said it before and I'll say it again, I'm no expert in women's beauty products, but when I received these samples from M.A.C Cosmetics, I'm not going to complain! In fact, these samples encouraged me to go check out beauty counters to update my outdated so-called make-up collection.

So M.A.C has sent me samples of their new Semi-Precious Collection. The Mineral Mode eye shadow and the Warmth of Coral blush. The eye shadow is made of a shimmery and matte white base with copper-ish and grey veining. Honestly I wasn't so sure if I'll end up using it, but when I tried it on, it gave a nice neutral color which can be easily handled by make-up amateurs like myself. The blush was a no-brainer and it actually complemented my skin tone giving it a nice bronze-like color. Take a closer look at how beautiful the color mixture of the eye shadow and the blush. Don't they look like planets from outer space? 

And the next day, I read on TopShop Middle East facebook page, that they have received a new selection of make-up products at their Avenues store, so I went there to check it out and ended up buying this eye shadow called Solar cell. 

And I fell in love with this sheer and moisturizing lip gloss called Glisten. It's not too glossy and it's not too sticky, it just adds a perfect soft color to your lips minus the usual mess of a lip gloss.

I loved MAC's Semi-precious collection but when I was on vacation and I only found one of the blushes, almost everything was out of stock :(. I got an amazing blush I'm going to post about soon called gold deposit from that collection. You should try it<3. The Topshop eyeshadow looks amazing, cant wait to check it out. Loved the post confashions, eshta66ait :)

I have tried the topshop eye shadow and I liked it a lot! It gives you a shimmery black application with a hint of green :)

Altuzarra or Aquazzura?

That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit.  After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the  Altuzarra   sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away.  Which pair would you go for?

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
