July Beauty Favourites July Beauty Favourites



One of my favourite things to do is writing and sharing with you products I´ve been loving during the past couple of weeks. I´m also giving you a short review of them. Enjoy! :) 

From the left on the top: 

1. The Body Shop Spa Wisdom Africa Honey and Beewax Hand and Foot Butter - I´ve been desperately looking for a foot lotion/cream/butter which doesn´t have peppermint smell. I´m more into nutty, sweet, fruity scents and finally I´ve found a products which smells good and also works very well. It´s an extra as the name of the cream states, you can use it as a hand butter too! :) It has a very creamy buttery texture, moisturises your feet/hands perfectly and has a delicious, but not too strong scent to it. I´m using it every evening before bed time and I´m waking up with soft, smooth skin!

2. NIP+FAB Dry Hand Fix with Pistachio and Almond Fragrance - I purchased this hand cream first  back in the december (in Hagkaup) because of the smell of it. It´s heaven on earth then I used it all up in 2 months or so... and I´ve bought another one what I´ve been currently using. That says it all. Great hand cream with amazing pistachio and almond scent.  Have you tried it? 


3. Clinique Liquid Facial Soap (mild) - I´ve got this small tube in a pretty makeup bag because Clinique had an offer. Basically if you bought 2 Clinique products, you got a cute makeup bag with some samples in it. I haven´t fall in love with many Clinique products in my life but this one is great. I´m using it daily under the shower, it´s a gentle, yet very effective cleanser. I´m gonna buy the big bottle for sure which comes with a pump as an extra bonus ;) 


4. Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess Bronzer in the shade 'LIGHT'  - I´m using this bronzer daily. It gives your face a natural tan, easy to apply, beautiful packaging. Nothing more to say. :)

5. L'Occitane Cherisier Rouge EU Intense (limited edition) - Unluckily it´s a limited edition parfume from L'Occitane  Spring Collection and it´s sold out in Iceland. I bought it around april and I´m more than half way throw my 50 ml bottle wich means I´m using it a LOT. It has a fresh, fruity, cherry scent which I love so much. This is my first parfume from the brand and I´m very satisfied with it. I like to change up the parfumes I´m wearing, I´m definitely not that type of girl who uses the same scent year after year..

6. Bobbi Brown Protective Face Lotion SPF 15 (with Vitamin E and Chamomile) - My favourite daily moisturizer with SPF in it. It´s a light-weight, face protective lotion which comes with a pump. Very handy, easy to apply, sinks into the skin immediately. I apply it before using BB/CC cream in the mornings. My skin loves it! 



7. Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick Eye Pallette Raw Sugar (limited edtition) - It´s a gorgeous summer eye pallette which you can use also for highlighting or you can also use it for your cheeks to add some color.
Sadly it was a limited edition and it´s sold out but the brand always comes out with some new shimmer brick pallettes.

8. Maybelline Brow Drama in the shade 'Medium Brown' - I've written about this brow mascara not so long ago. You can check out that post HERE :) Basically if you dont´have time/ you don´t need to correct your brows so much and you have just 30 seconds to fix them, this is a good product to use. It gives you a quick fix and it´s budget friendly. The only disadvantage is you can only choose from 2 colour shades. 


9. Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector - I have the shade 02 which is a light coraly shade. I´ve used up earlier this month my Dior Lip Glow so I decided to give this a go since I´ve purchased this product a while ago and also many bloggers are raving about them and ... I like it! :) It´s basically a lip balm and a lip gloss combined with a nude shade of color and it´s working. You get what you´re paying for and also it smells like vanilla. :)

10. OPI Nail Lacquer in the shade 'Sorry I´m Fizzy Today' (Coca-Cola Collection 2014) - It´s a lovely pastell pink shade <3  Perfect for the summer.

11. Real Techniques Buffing Brush (from their Core Collection) - If I have to choose only one brush from Real Techniques, I would definitely choose their BUFFING BRUSH. It´s a real multitasker. Of course I like to use different brushes for different tasks, but I could/can survive on this one brush (and my fingers) for creating my simple, everyday makeup look. I´m always applying my BB/CC cream/foundation with this brush and then I´m using it again for bronzer and blush. I have quite small makeup bag and I don´t want to carry around a set of brushes so  this brush makes the cut. Always!

I hope you´ve found some great reviews about products I´m currently using the most. You can find me on Twitter (@evabeautyblog), Instagram (evasuto) and of course on Facebook (Eva Suto). Please tweet me if you have any questions/comments, I would love to hear from you! :) 

Until next time,

PRODUCT REVIEW - Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color Shade Extensions (NEW!) PRODUCT REVIEW - Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color Shade Extensions (NEW!)

Bobbi Brown added five new shades to her rich lip color lipstick range and I've got to try two of them. 

On the left: Miami Pink - On the right: Blazing Red


Bobbi's Inspiration > 'For a great complement to a season of nude, a complete surprise - a bright lip. It's young, fresh and completely on trend. These modern brights are not only stunning, but flattering and wearable. They're super-pigmented and look awesome with a clean nude face.' - Bobbi Brown 


My absolute favourite shade is 'Blazing Red' which I'm wearing on the picture above. I've found it always hard to wear bright colours on my lips, especially red ones but I can say now I've found my perfect red lipstick! :) 

'Blazing Red' is a bright coral-red with yellow undertones. According to Bobbi Brown, these lipsticks are “lightweight, yet intense” and have “a clear base to deliver pure, crisp color with just one swipe.” The formula is also “creamy and moisturizing.” 
Often I find matt lipsticks soo drying on my lips but these Rich Lip Colors are definitely not one of those. They are very easy to apply and are long-lasting. 

'Miami Pink' is a bright pink without being a neon. This shade is more on the cooler side of the scale. It's a very pretty bright pink lipstick. 

As Bobbi recommended I just made a nude look and used nothing else but mascara on my eyes. Here are the products I used on my face: 



From left on the top >> (1) Bobbi Brown Brow Shaper in the shade 'Mahogany' - (2) L'Oreal True Match Concealer in the shade 'Beige' - (3) Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess Bronzer in the shade '01 Light' - (4) Estee Lauder Double Wear All-Day Glow BB Moisture Makeup SPF 30 in the shade 'Intensity 2.0' 
Bottom row>> (5) Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color in the shade 'Blazing Red' - (6) Shiseido Smoothing Lip Pencil in the shade 'Tangelo' (I'm not sure about this one) - (7) Estee Lauder Double Wear Brush-On Glow Highlighter in the shade '2W Light Medium' - (8) Bobbi Brown No Smudge Mascara in Black. 

I hope you find this post helpful! Have a nice weekend :)

BEAUTY RESTOCK #1 BEAUTY RESTOCK #1


There are some products I'm loving so much and using a lot, so I need to have them all the time. Usually as soon as I finish something, I'm not buying the exact same product again because I would like to try  new ones, but as you can see on the picture I have a couple of things I'm just obsessed with. 

1-2. Neutrogena - Pink Grapefruit Daily Scrub & Facial Wash (I wrote about these products before on my blog --> HERE!



3. The Body Shop - Camomile Waterproof Eye & Lip Make-Up Remover 
The best eye make-up remover I've ever tried and believe me I've tried sooo many different type of removers before and much more expensive ones. This make-up remover is gentle, doesn't irritate my eyes at all, doesn't smell like alcohol and just does a great job. 


4. Maybelline - Brow Drama (Sculpting Brow Mascara) in the shade 'medium brown'
I love this formula! You can fix your brows in 30 seconds perfectly. It works very well for me and it has a very good price :) 


5. Bobbi Brown BB Cream SPF 35 
This is the best BB cream in my opinion although I've tried many, but in the end I'm always coming back to the Bobbi Brown one. I have the shade 'Fair' and it matches with my skin tone perfectly. It covers so well, it's almost like a foundation. I'm very lucky with my skin so this BB Cream is enough for me to cover any redness on my face and it lasts all day long! This BB cream is my everyday make-up product.  


6. Bobbi Brown Hydrating Eye Cream (enriched mineral water & aloe vera)
This is my first eye-cream ever. I've started to use eye-cream 2 years ago right after my 25th birthday. I've just needed something light, hydrating cream which leaves my eye-area soft and refreshed. 


7. EOS Hand Lotion  
I love hand creams and I always carry 1 or 2 tubes in my handbag :) This is a new discovery for me. I fall in love with the packaging because it's so practical. Otherwise it smells delicious, 97% natural ingredients and it's paraben-free.
