Nothing as intriguing and scary to this fair skinned girl as fake tanning. When Isle of Paradise showed up on my insta-feed, I thought it was about time to take my (gradient) tanning routine to the next step. The colourful millennial-minded brand was founded by celebrity tanning expert Jules Von Hep, who has a decade of experience in the field. Its aesthetic has a bit of a Colourpop vibe and its also vegan, organic and cruelty-free.

Starskin was one of the Western pioneers to jump on the sheet mask bandwagon and it certainly paid off. By combining one of Korea’s hottest export products with the desire to have amazing skin like the stars, this Dutch brand instantly put itself on the luxury beauty map. Indeed luxury, as the sheet masks don’t come cheap at roughly € 10 a piece. In return, you do get a sheet mask with an incredible good fit that feels like second skin.

Behold my humble collection of Maybelline Super Stay Matte Ink liquid lipsticks! Just looking at this collection of colours puts a smile on my face!
