During my recent travel to Berlin I finally has the privilege to meet up with founder and MUA Miriam Jacks. Miriam is a knowledgeable celebrity make-up artist. A lovely person who is set about her work.  Read all about her story here, and about my favorite Jacks Beauty Line make-up brushes here.
 
The just opened pop-up store at Bikini Berlin is a true make-up and beauty walhalla. Miriam offers make-up and beauty brands she believes in and is fond of. The make-up brand MUD make-up Designory is an effective and highly pigmented brand for professional and consumer use. These products are also used at Jack Beauty make-up school. This year Miriam and the brand Make-up Designory have opened the first Berlin based MUD Studio. At MUD make-up school you will  be learned everything you need to know about the professional beauty business. I fell in love the Dual Finish Pressed Mineral due to the ultra-soft structure. The powder can work as a setting powder and as a bronzer without the clogging the pores effect.
The Gegengift range is a new and 100 % organic brand that is perfect for detoxing the skin. There is also a supplement to detoxify from the inside out. And it works!
I love this nail polish brand. The Berlin based brand has a color range that is wide. The nail polish line consisting of 54 different shades – a treat not only for the nails (after all the polishes contain less chemicals than regular products), but a treat in itself and for all senses; it’s just that daily little dose of self-indulgence that neither ruins your bank account nor leaves you with a bad conscience. A little Hollywood in Berlin. The collection has color true pigments and I really love the packaging.
Cosmetics à la Carte was established in 1973 by Cosmetic chemists Christina Stewart and Lynne Sanders.They were one of the first of to deliver tailor-made options to suit every customer’s needs and became well known for their original and individual approach to cosmetics. Their products include foundations to perfectly match your skin-tone for a flawless finish, brightly pigmented eye shadows,  blush and lip colours to complements your inner mood. What else could you wish for?
 
If you are heading to Berlin any time soon do check out the store. You will find great ideas for Christmas. The pop –up store will be there until February 2015 and hopefully beyond. Hey, while you’re at it why not have your make-up and hair for an evening out.
