MUG | What to Buy??

Hello makeup-addicted!:)
Today... It's not a real post... It's more like a question... FOR YOU!
Now... Let me explain!
I live in Italy and, as you may know, the crisis is huge! But what is worst is that the taxes (the worst is IVA, which is basically the money you have to pay to the state when you buy something, even when you buy something on-line which does not come from the EU zone, and now it's rated about 22%) are really high! And Italians have to pay that extra-money when buying something!
So, if you want to pay less and (maybe?!) avoid custom entry, the order has to be "small" maybe even less than 20 euros! (it means that I have to order 3/4 shadows at the time! Which sucks! Cause I have to pay two times the shipping cost!)

What I would like to ask you is:" what shades do you think are MUST-HAVE??"

Now... I'd love to have some nice must-have matte shades on the neutral side! And I choose mine, already! Even thought I'm thinking about placing the order on March!
Here you are the colors I chose:
White Lies: a white, matte shade!

Vanilla Bean: an ivory shadow, matte finish!

Peach Smoothie: do I have to say something about it??? Everyone raves about it!

Mango Tango: a warm/peachy color, not too dark, brown shadow!

Creme Bruleè: another warm-toned brown, but less warm than Mango Tango!
Cosmopolitan: this photo doesn't make him justice! But this is a pink/peach with gold-flex in it!


I know, I know... I'm a boring girl! But you know... Since this will be an investment, I decide to buy some classic matte shades, which are perfect for every type of makeup!
I chose, definitely, mine, after watching KathleenLights video, which shows all the shadows that she and allows you to see the "real" color of the shades! (sometimes the on-line store photos don't shows really well the real color! And if you have bought something on-line you'll understand what I mean!)
Now... I'd love to know if there are other shadows that I should buy! Maybe after this orders! I'd love to know your opinion! 
Anyway... Thank you for reading this post and, if you did, to reply!:)

XOXO, Fede:)

P.S. all the photos are taken from the Makeup Geek site!

Cakey Foundation?? No Thanks!

Happy MakeupFriday folks! Today I  decided to write about: FOUNDATION ! I know it might seems stupid, but every time I go somewhere i see girl with cakey foundation, who makes them look older and not so good looking! That's what I HATE seeing! I love Katy but... Just... WHY?? NO THANKS! I have to admit that, lately, I've been obsessed with skincare and makeup-bases, cause I've understand that those two "things" are the most important steps if you want a good-looking makeup!  So... I wanna tell you my " secrets " for obtaining a nice base, without looking like mummies ! Without further do... Let's get into it! MOISTURIZE YOUR FACE: I think I'll never stop saying it! There's no way you can obtain a good looking base without moisturizer! What is more important that moisturize your face? Your under-eye area (and even your eyelid)! If you skip this step... Your concealer will crease no matter what and if you also have dry eyelids your

How to: Grocery Shopping for Weight Loss on a Budget

Image
Hi everybody! I love to go grocery shopping! Spending time in between the isles of a grocery store may be one of the most exciting things to do for me! Is that weird?? I don't know! But I love reading labels, discovering new products and maybe realize that some "healthy" alternatives are not that healthy! I could spend hours shopping for groceries... Literally... You can leave me there for six hours straight and I will be having fun the whole time! It's all fun and giggles until you want to have an healthy lifestyle! That's when the problems start! I mean... They're not actually "problems"... But you have to be more careful about what you put into the cart... It only requires more attention! The most diffused idea is that "healthy eating" is more expensive... But I realized that it could be actually cheaper than what you may think! The key is to plan your trip to the store . KNOWING THE BRANDS Knowing which brands are bett

LifeSum Vs MyFItnessPal

  Hi everybody! Today I'd love to talk about some tools that helped me counting calories while I was trying to loose weight with all the pros and cons (I'm talking about the base version, not the premium)! Now... I don't like reading reviews on the appStore, mainly because sometimes those who write don't even know what they're talking about, so I've decided to explain everything in this post! I've used both of the apps so I think that this could be a pretty useful review if you are a "normal" person (and for normal I mean someone that doesn't know that much about nutrition!) so... Let's get into the review! LIFESUM It's the best , in my personal opinion, app for beginners ! I find that at the beginning of a weight loss journey you shouldn't be counting macros (or, at least, not care about those alla that much!) and that's why I suggest this app! If you only want to count your calories intake and know how muc
