Smooth, non-sticky and it gives the most beautiful high-shine finish. It feels lightweight and hydrating. I love it!
Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer - Fenty Beauty
I usually avoid matte lipsticks because they make my lips dry, but this one is a game changer! The formula is creamy, lightweight, and glides on like butter. I use brownish-nude color and it’s perfect.
Maybelline Moisturizing Serum Lipstick
I have combination/oily skin and it’s perfect for me! It doesn’t melt during these hot summer days, and it feels so natural. I am also satisfied with the coverage.
Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Eaze Drop Blurring Skin Tint - Sephora
It’s the best blush I ever had! Super pigmented and very blendable, veeery easy to build up. So much love for it! ❤️

This is the only liquid blush I have and sometimes I pair it with using it on my lips, which is pretty nice and I can confirm it’s hydrating, too. 👌
NARS Insatiable Longwearing Liquid Blush - Sephora
This lip gloss is so soft, lightweight and shiny and lips are plumped and look healthier, which is very important to me. I also love the applicator, it adjusts perfectly to the lips.

This highlighter gives natural luminous finish. I love that skin looks radiant, but also effortlessly healthy! Subtle, but gorgeous!
DIOR Backstage Glassy Glow Stick Multi-Use Stick Highlighter Balm
I wanted blurring effect without creasing and that’s it! Also, you don’t lose your glow by using it. The skin is flawless, and the package is so luxurious, I love it.
Yves Saint Laurent YSL All Hours Hyper Blur Loose Setting Powder
Worth the hype, actually! My brows are hm... Let`s just say there is no rule in theirs growth. :D So, I was not disappointed with this brow gel. It holds my wild brows on place, and it`s not agressively tinted, which I like very much.
Brow Harmony Flexible Lifting and Laminating Eyebrow Gel - Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez | Sephora
I have combination skin, very light and pale, and have a cool undertone, so i used nude pink and it was perfect!
Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Liquid Blush - Sephora
I love Aura, and this is another underhyped product by them. “Favourite one” is obviously my favourite one (beautiful nude), but Im also amazed by “Pink voltage”. They are so creamy, soft and hydrating, and I love the beautiful green packaging with t...
CASHMERE TOUCH 703 PINK VOLTAGE ACASHM703 | AURA
When I want perfect coverage, with no cakey effect, I use this one. Usually wear it when I go to parties or weddings and it didn`t betray me even on the hottest summer days.

Beautiful highlighter, one of my favourites from Kiko, and it`s impossible to use it to the end.

Perfect for eczema! Whenever my skin is dry, irritated or damaged, especially during winter time, this creme is a life saver. I also use it sometimes for chapped lips. It really helps instantly.
Cicaplast Balm B5+ | Soothing Therapeutic Balm for Dry Skin Irritations
One thing's for sure – every time I used this vitamin C serum, I got compliments on looking fresher and more rested. Even when I absolutely wasn't! 😃 You can't get more objective than your daily commute critics – the people who see you every day and...
Vitamin C12 Serum for Anti-Aging | La Roche-Posay
I must say I was a bit skeptic, but after a few recommendations over the internet, I decided to buy it cause I hated my hyperpigmentation on the forehead and temporal region. They are not so pigmented, but I was always seeing them as very ugly, becau...
The Mark Advanced Targeted Dark Spot Concentrate with 5% Tranexamic Acid, 1% Alpha Arbutin & 1% Koji
I was a bit skeptical, but it is so fine and refreshing and I see that it calms my redness, especially during hot summer days. I like using it also as a first step, before hyaluronic acid serum, to actually improve its effects. Biiiig recomendation f...
Avène Thermal Spring Water
This is quite possibly the best retinol for beginners. I've never had any negative reactions to it, which I can't say for other retinols I've tried. And on top of that – it actually works.
Retinol B3 Pure Retinol Serum for Anti-Aging l La Roche Posay
God knows I love vitamin C products, but this one... 😍😍 I actually bought it blindly, without testing it first, and I am amazed by its scent and softness of my skin which lasts for a day!

If you hate body lotions, because of the sticky feeling and weight, this one is actually perfect for you! It’s hydrating and smells soooo good, I will forever be rebuying it.
Body Badalada™ Lotion with Hyaluronic Acid for Daily Hydration
Scrub that is free from harmful ingredients, and also based on organic exfoliator, with fantastic scent (turmeric like). Skin is soooo soft after applying it.
Let The Good Times Roll / LUSH
My husband and i both love it! If you prefer honey with lemon, you will be in love with it, too! I can`t imagine better product for shower in the summer.
Honey I Washed The Kids / LUSH
I looove Korean-inspired collection from Kiko, and this product is truly a highlight of it all. Very fine and sparkly, milky oil formula, for shiny and soft skin, fantastic for making THE EFFECT wherever you are.

Great product for dry skin, I use it mostly during the winter.
La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ Foaming Oil 13.52oz

This is a recommendation by ophthalmology resident, so I can guarantee it works 😃 And from two angles of view, actually: While I was extremely tired for a couple of months of studying, working, traveling to work, etc., I tried this product for a reg...
Black Tea Firming and De-Puffing Eye Cream - fresh | Sephora
I bought this creme for my mom, but I couldn`t help it, I used it too. It`s very nice, it applies smoothly and it`s pretty effective. My mom ordered another two packages, so that`s all you need to know about this great product.
Pink Algae Pro-Retinol Brightening + Firming Eye Cream - JOSIE MARAN | Sephora
During my ophthalmology residency, I experimented with so many products for eyelids and dark circles. And some of them were very worth of the money, like this one. I haven`t used it for some amount of time, but... I recently had a testing of my skin ...
Clarins Total Eye Lift Eye Cream
Hair care
I use it for a pretty long time, because it makes my hair more heavy and shiny looking. I have a long straight hair, but sometimes it becomes frizzy, so I decided to give it a try. I also loooove the smell of my hair after it.
Keratin Alpha Sleek Anti-Frizz Hair Mask for Smooth Hair - L'Oréal Professionnel | Sephora
It truly repairs damaged hair, especially if you dye your hair or use styling tools. It makes my hair looks healthier and smoother.
Pantene Keratin Leave-In Conditioner Argan
You`ve probably heard of Super milk hairspray, but people mostly skip over or miss out this solid Super milk shampoo, which is very softening and stregthening, but also intensively aromatic. I`am using my third package, love it for summer!
Super Milk / LUSH
Lip treatment
I use this product for daily lip care, especially at work, and particularly when I'm prone to dehydration due to the nature of my job. I love the plumping effect and cooling sensation it creates.
Maracuja Juicy Lip Plump - tarte | Sephora
Lovely lip cream, very hydrating with nice plumping effect.
