A perfect complexion starts with skincare. That is true. But you usually need a little more to optimize your complexion. And if the make-up formulas also contain active skincare ingredients, the perfect complexion is effortless.
I have found such skincare-make-up hybrids in the “Fantastic Four” from Trinny London. Four clever all-rounders that offer make-up and skincare in one – from calming the complexion to lifting and firming the under-eye area. The products contain active ingredients such as niacinamide and hyaluronic acid, which help to combat skin problems such as excessive shine and moisture loss. A perfect complexion can be achieved in just a few steps, and those who wish can also achieve excellent coverage.
“The development of our skincare-make-up hybrids always starts with the selection of active ingredients with nourishing properties. Then we add color pigments for the necessary coverage,” emphasizes Trinny Woodall, founder and CEO of Trinny London.
Perfect complexion with “The Fantastic Four”
My absolute favorite is the “BFF Cream SPF 30”. This skin perfector can be used alone or under a foundation or even under “BFF Serum De-Stress”. It always provides the ultimate base for radiant skin. Thanks to its micro-encapsulated pigments, it adapts to the respective skin tone and reduces redness for a healthy glow. The light, creamy texture blends seamlessly for a flawless finish.
I like to use the Skin Perfector as a solo product because it gives me everything I need for a perfect complexion. And best of all: I can use it 365 days a year thanks to the built-in SPF 30 sun protection factor. And thanks to the practical pump bottle, it is hygienically packaged like all its competitors.

A hybrid for the eyes
The second item in my make-up bundle that I can’t live without is the “BFF Serum Eye Concealer”. It is the ultimate blend of nourishing eye serum and corrective concealer. It can be used to perfectly blend annoying dark circles and the dark corners on the inner corners of the eyes with the rest of the complexion. Once applied, this formulation is practically indistinguishable from the skin. A duo peptide complex visually firms and plumps the delicate under-eye area. In addition, the applicator tip made from a cooling zamak alloy has a decongestant effect during application.

Tinted serum with hyaluronic acid
“BFF Serum De-Stress” evens out the skin with a light to medium coverage all day long, without any unattractive greasiness.… weiterlesen
To travel during my profession as a beauty journalist was never enough for my. Also my six month on a world trip didn’t do it. It always attracts me to other cities, foreign countries, on roadtrips and places I don’t know yet. But I am not only interested in “culture” and “cream”, I am also fascinated by people who have stories to tell . Such unique experiences I want to share with you.
Make-up palettes are not really my thing. Half of the colors and products I’ve bought so far have mostly remained unused. The green was too glittery for me, the mascara brush too thick and greasy, the eyebrow pencil far too hard. As a result, many a palette ended up in the bin at some point. Anything but economical and environmentally friendly. That’s right! That’s why I haven’t bought a palette for a long time.
Make-up palette by Loni Baur
Why I have now broken my resolution is down to Loni Baur. As a beauty journalist, I have experienced her live as a make-up artist on many occasions. I admire her know-how, creativity and expertise. She is one of the most successful German make-up artists for good reason.
Loni has been creating looks for Fashion Weeks for 25 years, has done make-up for stars such as Charlène of Monaco, Gigi Hadid and Lenny Kravitz and has worked with well-known designers and renowned magazines. In April 2022, she launched her own make-up line LONI BAUR. She is a make-up artist with a huge amount of experience in make-up and looks. That’s why I was so excited about her own beauty products and simply had to make an exception for her palette.
Loni on her collection: “I have set myself the goal of making all my experience and knowledge of what makes a look special and how to achieve it accessible to everyone. The individual steps are super easy to recreate and require no prior professional knowledge.“
Two palettes, endless looks
Loni Baur actually has two palettes in her make-up line: “The Face Edition 01 – Here You Glow”, which I chose, and “The Face Edition 02 – Get Reddy”. The latter contains everything for a modern statement look with red lips and midnight blue eyeliner – cool for daytime as well as for a glamorous evening look. Both palettes contain everything you need for a complete professional look. Incidentally, I didn’t imagine them to be so large – they are more of a “make-up table” than a simple make-up palette as you would normally expect.
I want “Glow”
My “Here You Glow” palette with its soft peach tones is perfect for a natural glowy look with soft peach tones that I can use for every day, but also for special occasions. It contains 12 brilliant products in great, all-day-all-night colors: powder bronzer, blush and highlighter, blush stick, three powder eyeshadows, brow pencil duo, eye pencil duo, mascara, nude couture lipstick and a transparent brow gel.… weiterlesen
