Inspiration: Zeum Magazine

Lately I've been going through Tumblr like crazy looking for some photography that would knock out my senses. Sometimes I spend hours in Tumblr scrolling and scrolling until my head hurts, it's my favorite site after all. Then, some days ago I found a gorgeous photograph featuring clothes from The WhitePepper, and I wanted to see more of the photographers work, so I searched for "Zeum Magazine" which was the only hint I had of where to start looking. Seemed like the photograph was actually part of Zeum Magazine, and when I went through their Tumblr I just wanted to die of happiness! It was full of amazing, seriously good photographs. It was finding paradise on the internet haha. It's just the kind of photography I love the most, and it's what I aspire to become, a fashion photographer. Click here to check their wonderful Tumblr and see what I'm talking about. It may be a recent discovery but you can't even imagine how inspirational it is to me.
Zeum Magazine is a biannual canadian magazine, but sold and actually made for Great Britain. The only problem is that because you can only buy it online and you have to pay the shipping costs, it becomes really expensive. But it's a sure thing I'll end up buying it sooner or later. These are just a few of my favorite photographs of theirs. All credits go to Zeum Magazine.






 Hope you enjoyed and got some inspiration! ;)
See you next time.

Yankee Wax Melts


Last week I recieved these lovely wax melts from Yankee Candles. As you know, some time ago I bought my first Yankee candles and wax melts and I loved these last ones so much I decided to just buy wax melts instead of candles. This time I bought them with sweet scents: Strawberry Buttercream, Fireside Treats, Snowflake Cookie and Waikiki Melon. Altough I've just started using Fireside Treats I must say they all smell delicious. I usually cut the wax melts in 4 pieces and burn them one by one, I must say they last A LOT, the scent is very strong and my flat isn't very big, so the whole house smells wonderful. 

If you're searching for nice and strong scents, I highly recommend you to buy wax melts, specially Yankee Candles wax melts, the scents are very accurate to what you're expecting them to smell like. Until now, my favorite ones are: Vanilla Cupcake and Midnight Jasmine (I still have to try the new ones I've bought).










Thanks for reading! See you next time.

Hot Red Lips

I finally found the perfect match to having outstanding red lips for this summer. I always have trouble finding the right lipliner to match the colour of my lipstick...But I found a shop that sold NYX cosmetics (which I thought was imposible to find in my country) and I quickly grabbed a Hot Red lipliner which is the perfect red lipliner for lipstick with blue undertones. So I used NYX Hot Red lipliner with M.A.C cosmetics Brave Red  lipstick for this hot red lips look.



Thanks for reading! Have a lovely week.
See you next time ;)

Review: Fake Up from Benefit


Another review, this time on Fake Up from Benefit cosmetics. Yesterday I went to Sephora and bought some make up basics at Benefit, mascara and concealer. I'd never tried Benefits concealer Fake Up until today and my conclusion is that it's not a bad concealer, but not the best I've tried. You see, it comes in 3 different tones, my skin is pale so I bought "01 Light", the colour matches my skin, so that's great, but I find it doesn't have enough coverage (or pigmentation). I don't have dry skin so the hydrating ring doesn't make much difference and when you apply it under your eyes, it actually leaves a greasy feeling, not that it's uncomfortable but just unpleasant, but thank god it doesn't make my mascara spread or ruin my make up. If you want a concealer with better coverage in the Benefit range you've got Erase Paste.
The packaging is cute, as usual for Benefit, but the product is too expensive in relation to what it really is.




In my opinion I wouldn't buy this product again, not for now, the price just isn't suitable for this product. I don't like to say this because I wanted to love this product, but I just can't...I use it everyday, because I don't have another concealer and well, actually it's not that bad for daily use, but don't wear too much make up on your eyes or it will spread and look weird. If you have dry skin and want a light coverage this is your concealer. Maybe if you use matte powder after using Fake Up, the greasy feeling dissapears. If I had to punctuate this product it'll be 3/5. 

Thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed.
Until next time!
