ON MY FACE LATELY

New makeup on my face

It’s been notoriously quiet here on Beauty Drama Queen but life’s been busy. And the last week has been particularly sh*tty. A headache returned with vengeance and scared me shitless. It's been a while since I had to take time off and almost a week at that because of pain. Usually I just push through it but I think my body has finally given in and forced me to rest. I'm still operating at 40% so I'm glad to have some content pre-written. Other than last week, as always, I’ve been not so quietly testing a lot of new makeup and falling back in love with some older bits. Here’s the brand new ‘On my face lately’ and it’s a good one if I say so myself. Off we go then.

FLAWLESS SKIN LUXURY EDIT

My name is Dorota and I’m a glow addict. Combine that with a huge love for high coverage, Insta filter-like finish and we’ve got ourselves a little conundrum. So what does one do if full coverage is a must but one hates the mask-like finish?  Well, a good skincare prep, a glowing primer and a little oil always does a trick. Here’s my go-to flawless skin routine for days when one needs a bit of coverage to look human yet don’t want no flat matte. It’s the glow life people!

THE STORY OF RED

Red lipstick: my story

Do you remember your first time? The moment you picked up that forbidden baddass of shades? One thing’s for sure, your first red lipstick isn’t one that's easily forgotten. Over the years, I developed such affection for red, nothing quite compares. Red is bold, demanding and shields me from prying eyes. Yes, they see me, they see the confidence in rocking the most statement of shades. What they don’t see is the shyness, my lipstick tells the stories I can’t put into words. There’s been a time when I only wore red. Meetings all day? Red. Sunday in PJs? Red. Red is for life, red is me.
