If there is one thing I truly have a weakness for, it is not shoes or handbags, but cosmetics. Do you know that feeling when you walk into a perfumery, take a deep breath and immediately feel more "feminine"?! I am completely addicted to that feeling, so I go to my favourite Marionnaud store at least once a month, and to the pharmacy or drugstore even more often. Most of the time the visit doesn't end with just a deep breath. Oh well. 
Today I will introduce you to the new beauty products that have found a firm place at my home and give me incredible joy.
1. Universal make-up remover by Yves Saint Laurent
This one is a real gem for me. Until now I had removed my make-up exclusively with micellar water, but my all-time favourite brand came to the market with this little miracle. It looks like wax, smells lovely and applies beautifully. You just massage this hybrid formula, as they call it, into your skin and simply "scrub" the make-up off. Truly miraculous. You can buy it, where else, at Marionnaud here.
2. Cooling eye cream, Estee Lauder
Because of the kids I haven't slept much for a few years now, so I can't imagine my day without eye cream. It is the first thing I put on my skin and in the evening the last. This cream not only cools, hydrates and nourishes, it even firms. It is the best eye cream I have ever had. Available exclusively in perfumeries Marionnaud here.
3. Hydra-Global Intense Anti-Aging hydrating serum, Sisley
I have tried at least a million moisturisers. Either they didn't smell nice, or they were heavy, or they didn't hydrate enough, and some even "pilled" on the skin. This serum, however, is perfect. Believe me, I have never had a better one. It is expensive, I know, but it is worth it, and after sunbathing it is the best thing for your skin. You can buy it at Marionnaud here.
4. Luminous Silk make-up, Giorgio Armani
A luxurious make-up, moreover hydrating and with a silky finish. I love it when I want to look flawlessly made-up, and I feel it really covers every imperfection. It lasts me all day. I don't use it every day in summer, but when I want to look beautiful, always! Available exclusively in perfumeries Marionnaud here.
5. Hand cream, Mixa
I discovered this brand only recently and it is a huge surprise for me. It is affordable and at the same time a great choice, whether it is body or facial cosmetics. I have tried it and recommended it to many people, and everyone is satisfied. The hand cream hydrates excellently, isn't sticky, and I keep it in the car, in my handbag and at home in the bathroom. Available in selected drugstores and pharmacies. More info here: www.mixa.sk
6. Dry oil with glitter, Huile Prodigieus, Nuxe
I have been using it for years and I am addicted to it. I put it on absolutely everything, and this summer glitter version is incredible. The skin looks great in both daylight and artificial light. A total MUST-HAVE for the evening. And the scent is inimitable. Available in every good pharmacy.
7. Quatre en Rose perfume, Boucheron
I love fragrances. Distinctive, individual and sensual ones. This is the scent of my spring and summer. I can smell redcurrants and mandarin in it, with a pronounced sweet undertone of rose and jasmine. If you have a demanding and sensual nose like mine, definitely go and have a sniff. Where else but Marionnaud, and you can also buy it online here.
