Idda van Munster: half moon nails

A big portfolio update.

Dear readers,

It has been a long time since my last blog post, as I have been very busy with many projects and with studying and preparing for exams.

New work to share! A big portfolio update today - I've added lots of new work to my site: Idda van Munster Facebook Fan Page.

I will be modeling for a really BIG company. Shhh I didn't say anything! Will let you know more soon... HAPPY!

I'm so excited!

It’s so wonderful how exciting life is and how much energy you get when you always have something interesting to look forward to!

Lots of GOOD things happening lately - I feel 2013 will be a super productive and successful year:

1.) From now on I'm in a partnership with SIGMA BEAUTY! It's a global store, specializing in makeup: shadow palettes, brushes kits and skin care!

Visit us online at:

Have you ordered from Sigma Beauty?

I love the products and will write reviews about them soon! Stay tuned!

2.) I'm the new model for Glitter Paradise (I absolutely fell in love with their creations and jewellery) alongside Bernie Dexter, Acid Doll, Angie Alamilla, Rockwell Raquel, La Cholita and so many more great ladies! They created something special just for me!!! I will be modelling (and blogging) for Sweet Pins too - an online boutique that specialises in luxury stockings and vintage inspired lingerie from Australia ...and can't wait to be Sarah Troester Photography's model ❤

3.) Booked my flight to Germany: here I come in May ✈

Well I never tought of being a model, cause I didn't tought I had what it takes, but when I started wearing vintage I did shoots because I had ideas I wanted to produce. I do my own makeup and hair styles in all my photosessions! I actually prefer it as I know what looks work best for me! I've always had a passion for makeup and painting. My mother will say I started when I was a child – my first contact with colors and paper. I've always had a fascination with faces, and ripping apart her Vogue and Bazaar magazines when I was six probably didn't help either! Just the idea of creating beauty....has always fascinated me. To me, there's something that feels so good about putting on nice clothes, doing my hair, and putting on makeup - I feel pretty and confident when I get dressed up.

I think there's something special to be found in every day, and for me that's enough of an excuse to bring on the glamour!

Getting ready for my photoshoot. Stay tuned for photos.

I don't like doing my hair, makeup and dressing up, I LOVE doing all those and more! I usually start rolling my hair in curlers after washing it in the morning or I do it before I go to sleep the night before (so I'm ready in the morning), usually tying a scarf to cover and contain the rollers. My makeup is fairly simple, lightly lining my eyebrows and putting black eyeliner. Some lipstick completes my makeup regime and of course a rose/peach blush.

I just love being as feminine as possible and presenting myself to the world as a woman when the opportunity arises.

I do it because I'm a woman and I can. Looking glamorous/pretty/sexy/dressed up excites me and makes me feel more feminine, more like a woman, if that's possible. I consider it a privilege and a reward of being a woman. Look what I get to wear because I'm a woman! If you look at it from that perspective, you can't help but love it and have fun.

I wanted to show you some of the most recent images I have added to my portfolio:

Max Factor review 2: Pink. Rose. Coral.

My recommendation of Max Factor products in ALL Cosmetic Markets CM in Bosnia and Hercegovina.

This post is my 2nd review for Max Factor.

This time I will show you the pink and coral shades of lipsticks and glosses, mascaras and more - I absolutely enjoyed making this post and from now on I will wear pink and coral shades more than often. Lately, I'm a bit tired of the classic pin up look (most of all THE RED LIPSTICK)- so I'm inspired by the 1930's ladies with the gorgeous finger waves and pink lips and nails.

Thank you Max Factor Bosnia & Hercegovina you have sponsored me with these wonderful products!

Hope you will be satisfied again with my review!

Starting with the final looks:

What have I used to achieve this look?

Foundation: Max Factor Smooth Effect Foundation (Creamy Ivory 45)

I'm really surprised by the bad reviews about this product. I find it is a really good foundation. I understand that the commercials and even the name of the product itself could be misleading. This foundation, in my opinion, is only for who wants a light/sheer coverage, a natural finish and a creamy consistency.

If you have major problems or a lot of spots to cover this is not the right foundation.

Overall I think this is a great product and the thing I like the most is that it gives me a beautiful finish and it looks like I have nothing on.

I'm in the lightest shade (45 creamy ivory) and it's perfect for my skin tone. I don't even use it all over my face if I don't need it.

Mascara: Max Factor Eye Brightening Tonal Black Volumising

Max Factor is famous for great mascaras so their new Eye Brightening Tonal Black Volumising Mascaras should not disappoint.

I like the idea of eye brightening effect which you should get because of the light reflecting particles and gem-toned colour beads.

The range includes: Black Pearl for brown eyes, Black Sapphire for blue eyes and Black Ruby for green eyes.

The promo photo actually looks pretty, I like the blue shimmer.

The brush is quite thin but it applies the mascara with ease and doesn’t leave any clumps. For day time I only use 1 coat but if you want a more dramatic look for a night out you must put 2-3 coat of mascara.

Left my eye with false eyelashes and Max Factor eyeliner here is the link - right my eye with 1 coat of Eye Brightening Tonal Black Volumising Mascara - I love it, really looks natural for day time.

I have to be honest, for the final look, I'm still using false lashes.

Lipstick: Max Factor Colour Elixir lipstick in Pink Brandy and Bewitching Coral

First of all:

Max Factor lipsticks are always dependable. What you see in the tube is what you get on the lips.

It feels really moisturising on the lips and has amazing staying power. You feel like you're wearing a (strongly) pigmented lip balm - Colour Elixir is so soft, so silky, yet with decent lasting power.

Pink Brandy is a clear, medium coral, bright in the tube but easy to wear and very flattering on my pale skin and pigmented lips. It has a 50's feel to it that I like. Don't know how they come up with the names but this has little to do with pink, it's pure brandy. Definitely a favourite.

Bewitching Coral is an insanely bright and strong shade of coral, verging on hot pink - it is quite similar to MAC Impassioned, which is one of my favourite lipsticks, but warmer, more orange and doesn't pack quite as much of a punch as Impassioned does. The colour is anything but subtle, though, and I love both of them.

On my lips, Pink Brandy lasts a good 3-4, even 5 hours. I don't know how Max Factor have done it - moisturising lipsticks rarely stay put this long - but I applaud them for that.

Gloss: Max Factor Lipfinity Colour & Gloss

Max Factor Lipfinity Colour & Gloss is an innovative double-ended Lipstick, which gives a depth of multi-tonal colour and shine for an eye-catching look that lasts up to 10 hours.

Shades:

Gleaming Coral 570 and Radiant Rose 510.

I have tried nearly every longlasting lip colour from maybelline to Mac and Max Factor have definately got the formula right!!! It never get chunky or flakey on the lips and lasts ages! Well done Max Factor someone had finally done it right! Thank you!

I'm a big fan of long wearing lipsticks and I think Max Factor was one of the first to introduce this. The trick to long wearing lipsticks to let it dry first and then apply the gloss.
