M·A·C Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation

Hi everyone!
Lately I've been searching for a great everyday, high coverage powder which can be an optimal replacement to my liquid foundation. I feel that liquid foundation can be a little bit heavy on hot summer days and sometimes it looks masklike and awkward, especially if you going to be outdoors for several hours. I heard a lot of great things about M·A·C Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation so I gave it a try. For my experience I have to admit that this is truly a miracle. I have very oily skin and this powder mattified all the shine that I have on my T-zone area without looking caky at all. I like to apply it gently with my Sigma F30 Large Powder brush all over my face. This product has a big range of shades, I have it in the shade NW18 which means that it has a pink undertone. If you have yellow undertones, you should try the NC shades. This product also appointed to be a foundation with a very light coverage, so if you don't mind and you looking for something that just even your skin tone - this is the right product for you.
My score:  (5/5)

ANNY Nail Polishes

Hi everyone!
You probably noticed how much I care for my nails. A perfect manicure it's something that I can't live without, I'm sort of obsessed. A new German brand called ANNY made 'Aliyah' to Israel. I tried two nail polishes and I have to say that I'm really impressed by the results. The first nail polish I purchased is No. 925 'no more yellow nude' and the second one is No. 930 which is actually a high gloss top coat. The thing I like the most about these nail polishes is that they last for a very long time and it looks like you applied it yesterday. It's really easy to work with these nail polishes, they have a really good constancy, not very thick and not too liquidy, just as it supposed to be. They have a very wide range of colors so you can choose easily from the collection. In the picture below I applied one base coat of my favorite Nail Tek Foundation 2, two coats of the ANNY 'no more yellow nude' and a top coat. What do you think about the results? Have you tried these nail polishes?
