Favorites: Spring 2022 (Makeup, Perfume, Skincare & Haircare) |EN|

Hello 

Since summer is right around the corner I decided it's time to share with you my spring favorites for 2022. In case you're interested in similar posts, you can catch up on my winter favorites here and here - my favorite products for 2021.

Let's start with favorite spring makeup items:

Max Factor Radiant Lift foundation 

in the shade 55 Golden Natural

I have a full review on this foundation here. High coverage, demi-matt finish, light formula, amazing longevity and  I don't need to mattify my skin more than once daily whenever wearing it. This is a foundation I can count on and has amazing performance anytime and anywhere. I wore it a lot this spring due the variety of weather conditions - there was both snow and 30 C heat. Highly recommended for ladies with oily skin!

Fixing powder Bell HYPOallergenic Perfectionist Powder 

in the shade 01 Banana

I already wrote about how good this powder is as I included it in my yearly favorites for 2021 here Beside it has the most beautiful print I've seen, it's great for oily skin: really light, fixes good, mattifyes strong and it's not drying or heavy on the skin. Such a good powder that impressed me so much and i can't recommend it enough!

Bronzing powder NL Beauty Sunkissed

You can read my review on this bronzing powder here The powder is in beautiful bronzy shade, it has a nice satin finish and I think it's suitable for women with medium to dark skin tone or fake tan, due to its high opacity. I wore it on my cheekbones and crease a lot during the spring time and it's a good one.

*Bell HYPOallergenic Stay On! lip tint 

in the shade 01 My Mocha and 02 Rose Petal

Those tints are my new love - light but pigmented, with a beautiful matte finish, high longevity and such a nice looking on the lips. The best part is that they don't leave any stains on clothes, skin or cups. For light and everyday makeup I like to apply 1 layer to achieve the trendy lip blush look.

miss sporty nail polish 

in the shade Tokyo Lights and Miss Beverly Hills

These are literally the only 2 nail polishes I wore throughout this spring: fresh pastel coral Tokyo Light and the bright fuchsia Miss Beverly Hills - I have full review with many photos on the second one here Great opaque colors, good longevity and easy application, recommend.

Moving onto the skincare:

The Body Shop Vitamin E

 day cream with SPF 30

This cream is so light it feels more like an emulsion or serum and works well as base underneath my makeup and on its own. It's not mattifying but it doesn't feel heavy or greasy at all on my oily skin. My skin feels good with it and I don't have any new hyperpigmentation spots so I can safely recommend it.

*NIVEA Double Effect 

bi-phase makeup remover

This makeup remover is so good! It removes all of my makeup with ease and it doesn't leave oily residue afterwards. I really like it and highly recommend it!

*Organic rose water 

Natura of Agiva

I'm such a fan of rose water and I apply it daily on my skin, mornings and evenings on clear skin, instead of toner. This one has a nice pump so you get an instant refreshing burst and the skin feels soft and soothed. Sometimes I also add some of this rose water to my homemade hair mask so it's quite multifunctional.

Balea Totes Meer 

mud mask

This mask has thick consistency and fine exfoliating parts, once you rinse it off the skin feels clear, smooth and refreshed, with even tone. Such a good one for oily skin!

*NIVEA Q10 Energy sheet mask 

with Vitamin C

Sheet masks are a new thing for me and I'm at the beginning of my experimenting journey with them - this one has my favorite ingredient, i.e. Vitamin C and the effect after usage is instant: fresh, even skin tone, healthy glow and hydrated, soft skin. Definitely a good one!

Vaseline Lip Therapy 

Original

My favorite tik tok dermatologist Adele recently said that my favorite lip balm Carmes isn't good for the lips and offered this Vaseline Lip Therapy Original as better option so I got it - it has light and vaseline-y consistency, no smell or taste (which I'm fan of) and I'm using it every night to keep my lips moisturized.

My favorite body care products are following:

The Body Shop shower gel 

with avocado

This shower gel truly smells like avocado (strange, but facts!) and has rich, thick formula that’s super gentle on the skin.

*IKAROV Detoxifying washing scrub 

with brown sugar, coffee and orange

I have full review on this scrub here Smells amazing like coffee & orange, it’s gently exfoliating and washing at the same time and effectively removes worn out fake tan and dead skin cells. Very good one!

Vicki’s Boutique perfumed shimmering body lotion

 (smells like Carolina Herrera Good Girl)

This lotion smells just like Good Girl by Carolina Herrera – fine and not gourmand cacao and white florals, it has light but hydrating formula and really nice golden sparkle.

GARNIER Natural Bronzer self-tan mousse 

with coconut water

As a huge self-tan fan I’ve tried many and apparently the mousse is the easiest to apply – super light, quickly absorbing and streak-free. I’m not the biggest fan of the scent in this one (I feel is a bit plastic and artificial) but it gives my skin natural looking tan that’s not too orangy or fake.

Literally the only 2 scents I’ve been wearing this spring:

Avon Soft Musk

 delice de velvet berries

This one I used up already – I started using it in March and then I finished it in May. So good! Smells like tarty rhubarb, blackcurrant, sour cherry, red currant and sandalwood, sour and warm at the same time. Super budget-friendly and unique smell.

Nina Ricci 

Ricci Ricci EDP

Old favorite of mine – I have full review on it here Smells like rhubarb (again – I’m such a big rhubarb fan!), white floral and musk, super long-lasting and it has metric silage. What a compliment getter!

Let’s finish with some haircare favorites:

Shampoo, conditioner, mask and oil-spray 

Pantene pro v miracles Lift & Volume

I got these 4 products as a gift in a nice & big pouch and I think this is such a good deal – shampoo smells amazing and makes my hair voluminous and smooth, while the conditioner, mask and oil-spray make it soft, silky and shiny. I’m really impressed by this Pantene line and I’ll repurchase it for sure! s

*Natura of Agiva hair mask 

for colored hair with macadamia

This mask has thick, rich formula, smell super yummy like macadamia and does wonders for my long, thick, dry and colored hair: after use my hair is soft, nourished, hydrated and easy to comb through. It has 96% natural ingredients and the packaging itself is produced with recycled materials. Love it!

Balea Purple Dahlia 

hair perfume

Something new – hair perfume. Do you know there is such thing on the market? This one smells just like the above mentioned perfume  Avon delice de velvet berries and I love layering them both together. Using classic perfume on your hair may result in damaging it due to the high alcohol and oil percentage, so the special hair perfume is interesting and harmless product to use on this body part.

Those were my spring favorites, which are yours?
