Melvita L'Or Bio

Hello,

recently I wrote about one of my favorite face oils and when I went through my collection I rediscovered this one. When I purchased it I was using it non stop but then I accumulated a lot of oils and I forgot about this one for a while but I did used about one fifth of it already.

Melvita L'Or Bio - Extraordinary oil

It is Melvita L'Or Bio - Extraordinary oil. They basicaly mixed 5 different oils together to create this one. They used Argan, Kendi, Inca Inchi, Buriti and Pracaxi oil (I had lots of fun researching about them). I noticed that they changed the bottle but I think that the product is still the same.
I have to mention the amazing scent. It is warm and cozy, I can't imagine a human being who would dislike it.
I was using this oil on my face for a month or more and honestly I haven't seen any big difference. I think it is too expencive to be slathered all over and not see results so I started using it on my hair to also prolong the scent. I often spray parfum all over my hair because it lasts much longer. The good thing is that the oil is also nourishing them even though my hair aren't dry but a little extra moisture cannot hurt, right?
I love the scent but I don't think this is good enough reason to keep repurchasing such an expencive product. I will use it up and that will be it. I will try some other oils on the market for a fraction of the price.

Hello,

today is nail polish day! I finally tried my new Avon Gel finish nail polish in Siberia. This line is one of my favorites, I love Avon nail polishes but the gel finish ones are the best. So far I have three of them and in the future I'm planing to get two or three more.

Avon Gel finish Siberia

I think this particular color came out at the beginning of the Winter last year. There are also white and silver but so far I'm not interested in the two.

Avon Gel finish Siberia

In the bottle the color looks a bit more silver and lighter and once it is on the nails it is darker and the shimmer appears more blue than silver. It applied smooth as a butter. If I would be more cautious I could use only one coat. I'm wearing it for two days now and there are no chips or tip wear.
I'm really impressed by the formula and like I already mentioned I plan to buy more shades from this range.

eye creams

Hello,

for a long time I wasn't using any special creams around my eyes. I always just applied the cream I used all over my face also under my eyes and that was it. Around two years ago I caved in and bought myself an eye cream. I know it was from Avon in a little pot and it was nothing but amazing. It moisturized instantly and kept my fine lines in check. It had some sort of a highlighter build in and it lightly covered up under eye circles and when I had enough sleep I even didn't need to use concealer. It was amazing but they discontinued it and since then I'm trying to find something similar.


Ombia Cosmetics Hyaluronic acid eye creams

A while ago I bought these two from Hofer and they are a part of their beauty line called Ombia Cosmetics. They were available only for a short period of time and even though each cost me around 10 € I bought both to see if they are any good.
One is a day gel cream and the other one is more of a proper cream and you should use it at night. Each bottle contains 15 ml and comes with a handy pump. The packaging in nice and efficient. Both products contain Hyaluronic acid which is awesome at keeping moisture locked in your skin.

I tried both of them and I have the same problem with both of them. I think everyone applies eye cream as close to the eye as possible, right? Well, not these two, they get absorbed and burn your eyes. It was horrible but I wanted to give them another chance. I used them on my cheek bone and a tiny bit on my brow bone. This worked but after a couple of hours my eyes started to water and the burning eye was back.
I think they are very strong creams, very concentrated and if I would use them I would see some positive changes but I just can't. Now I use them all over my face (firmly avoiding my eye area) and on my neck just to use them up.

So, I'm still on a hunt for an eye cream that would work for me. I'm googling a lot and probably soon I will buy something new.

e-bay package

Hello,

today a package from Korea made my day. I sent my order not that long ago and the package already arrived. I only ordered two different skin care products but I'm already excited to try them out.

Etude House Royal Jelly sheet mask and Innisfree Jeju sparkling mineral powder

These are my first sheet masks and they are from Etude House. I picked the Royal Jelly ones for extra moisture.
The next item is something completely new to me. It is from Innisfree and it contains two packets of powder which you mix with water to make bubbly massage for the face. It sound interesting, right?

I will try the products out and I will give you the review and my opinion about them.

Avon in shower moisturizer

Hello,

the weather is getting cooler and with that my skin is also getting drier. Last year I discovered in shower body moisturizers and I loved the idea. In the summer you can use them on its own to avoid greasy felling and in the winter you can layer them with a regular body moisturizer to double up the moisture your skin is loosing. I tried the Nivea version and I really liked it so I decided to get the Avon one.


Avon Skin so Soft in shower moisturizer

This is Avon Skin so Soft in shower moisturizer. It has a very light scent which goes away when I rinse the moisturizer off. The texture is nice but nothing special. I can feel the moisturizing properties when I'm applying it but after I rinse it off it is gone. I feel like it doesn't do much.


Avon Skin so Soft in shower moisturizer

Here you can see that I applied it on the back of my hand and I tried to massage it in without rinsing it off but it didn't work. It was just sitting on top of my skin and it wasn't absorbing.

I like the scent but the product didn't blew me away, in fact I'm wondering if it does anything. I will not buy it again.

Forever repurchased

Hello,

today I have one of my HG product for you. This oil really helped me get better skin, the kind of skin I deserve. I'm in my mid twenties and I still get attacked by acne. My skin is oily and I easily get blemishes but that is not my worst problem. Even when pimples disappear I'm left with a bright red dot and that sucker stays with me up to two months. I have very pale skin and bright red dots are very visible, it can get really bad and there isn't a concealer that could cover all up. I also don't want to look all caked up in make-up so those bright blemishes are following me for the last 8 years. Well, the situation is slowly calming down, I have changed my life style and all that together helped me improve my skin but I owe big portion to this product.

Melvita Lily oil

This is Lily's oil by Melvita. I'm not saying that it helps get rid of acne, I'm saying it helps me to heal faster my acne scars. If I don't use this, the red dots stay with me at least for two months but if I regularly use Lily's oil (every night after moisturizer) they heal in about a month or three week. It also helped even out my skin tone. Before my face had gazilion shades but now it is more even and I need way less foundation or bb cream to cover, actually now I'm picking products with sheer to medium coverage. That is a big change for me and in my darkest moments I never thought I will get my skin to look that good (I still have a long way to go but compared to what it looked a year ago, I would say there is a huge difference).
This is my third bottle so far. It contains 50 ml and costs around 20 €. It is not the cheapest oil but for what it does I will repurchase it. I often buy it on sale at Melvita store but now they closed down so I will see if the big drugstore will have some sales. I go through a bottle in about 9-10 months, you really don't need much. Just make sure your face is damp or apply cream first and before it completely sink in put oil on top. That way you will use less oil and it will disperse more even.
I only have a small rant about the packaging. My first two bottles both had a broken pump. The first one was leaking and I was loosing product so I pour it into a different bottle and the pump on the second bottle simply didn't work. I tried this one and thankfully this one works.
Anyway, I will continue buying this oil because it is the best I have ever tried for my acne scars. If you are suffering as well I would highly recommend trying it out.

Hello,

my previous manicure started to chip on me so I switched it up. I dig out my oldest nail polish. How do I know? I have a good memory (at least when it comes to nail polishes) and the packaging is so old that probably no one remembers when these were available.

Essence multi dimension xxxl shine nail polish Right, Girl!

Yes, I had to use a couple of drops of thinner but other than that it is still nice. It applies like a brand new one. If you haven't recognize the packaging this is Essence multi dimension xxxl shine nail polish in the shade Right, Girl!. It is the only one from this line I ever had but based on this one they had a lovely formula.

Essence multi dimension xxxl shine nail polish Right, Girl!

It is a medium red shimmery shade. It dries shiny but a layer of top coat made it even better. In certain light it leans toward the pink side. It definitely isn't my favorite shade but I remember I rarely wore it because I was scared to use it up. Taste definitely changes or at least evolve.
I will try to wear this one more often and just use it up and be done with it. It is a nice shade but I wouldn't repurchase it if it would be still available.

Chiffon

Hello,

lip products have to be my favorite among beauty items. This weekend I spend counting how many I have and I have a lot, more than 100 lip products, yikes.
This made me realize that I certainly don't need more and I will try to hold back this year. I'm not saying that I will not buy any  (I think it would be impossible) but I will try to buy as little as possible. This also goes for e-bay purchases. I love browsing through Asian make-up brands because they are not sold here. If I want to buy something I have to rely on swatches I find online which are sometimes very misleading. A while ago I just couldn't pass this product and I gave him a fair share and here are my thoughts on it.

Missha Chiffon painting rouge CRD01

This is Missha Chiffon painting rouge in the shade CRD01. There is also Syrup version (the same packaging) but they are just lip glosses. For this I thought it will be a lip stain. I don't know how to call them but they are some sort of a lip creams.


It comes in a standard lip gloss packaging with a lip gloss applicator and it contains 6,4 g of product.

Missha Chiffon painting rouge CRD01

There are 10 shades to choose from and I randomly decided to get this rather neutral red shade. I thought it would work the best as a stain color but I was wrong.
The product is very creamy but not completely matte, I would say it is something between matte and shiny. It is highly pigmented and quite easy to use. For a perfect application I helped myself with a precise lip brush.
The problem is that it doesn't settle so when I drink it came right off.

Missha Chiffon painting rouge CRD01

I also tried to smear it with my fingers and use it more lightly, more as a stain. This is what it looks like. I know it looks like my camera was out of focus but it wasn't. When I started to blend the product into my skin it started to blur and the texture was very velvety and soft but it had no grip. I left it on my lips for an hour or two but it still transferred on my glass or tissue.

For me this is just too much of a hassle. I have to be super careful when wearing it and constantly checking if it is still on or is it on my teeth or skin around my mouth or...

Oh boy, this product really disappointed me and now I will be more careful when I will be ordering stuff online with barely any reviews available. Did you ever got burned with a product you bought online?

Hello,

here I have another updated manicure. I wore this lavender shade for two days and after that I decided to add some glitter on top because there is never too much sparkles, right?

Avon Color Trend Silver Plated

On top of Catrice Put Lavender on agenda I applied Avon Color Trend glitter in the shade Silver Plated. It contains mostly big hexagonal silver glitters but there are also smaller silver shimmery particles.

Catrice Put Lavender on Agenda and Avon Color Trend Silver Plated

This is how it looks. I do like to put something silver-y on top of my lavender hues. Thinking of silver top coats I have silver crackle. Do you remember when crackles were everywhere? Are they still sold? I think people got tired of them but not me. I have only two and maybe that is the reason I still like them.

Catrice mono eye shadows

Hello,

I picked 10 different Catrice eye shadows from their recent sale. I have never have their eye shadows but I heard a lot of good things about them.

Catrice New in Brown and Ooops...Nude did it again!

I have New in Brown and Ooops...Nude did it again! Both of them are nice neutrals great for people who don't like too colorful eyes and yes, I'm one of them. I like my neutrals. I was playing around with these two for the past week and it made me realize something.


Catrice New in Brown and Ooops...Nude did it again!

Here they are on the back of my hand. I have a feeling they look a bit different than in the pan. 

Ooops...Nude did it again! has a nice sateen sheen but unfortunately on my eyes it is barely detectable, maybe this happens because I use a very thin layer and for the swatch I layered two or three coats plus my skin is a bit lighter on my face than on my hands so the color just blends in with my skin color.

New in Brown gets more bronze-y on the skin which I don't mind. I figured that bronze eye shadows makes my eyes more blue which is okay with me but the issue I have with it is that I already have a couple similar shades in my collection.

All in all I do like the formula of them, they are very inexpensive and they have a rather large color selection. Maybe next time I will picked more original shades  ;)

Hello,

I switched my manicure and I decided to go with a more spring inspired hue. I always loved lavender shades and I have a lot of nail polishes in this shade but none of them is as dark as this one. It is a bit dark and smoky, perfect for this time of the year.

Catrice Put Lavender on Agenda

This one is called Put Lavender on Agenda and sadly it is no longer available. I don't even know when they discontinued it, apparently it passed me by. I know it is an old one but I still like it very much.

Catrice Put Lavender on Agenda

It still applies nicely and two even layers are enough. It has a nice cream finish but I have a felling that it dries a little bit brighter on the nails than what it looks like in the bottle.
I will be sad when I will use it up (I have about half a bottle left) but majority of the brands have pretty lavender shade in their collection and I'm sure I will find something nice.

Avon shopping

Hello,

this time I ordered a little something from Avon for myself. There is nothing I really need but the prices convinced me that I stocked up a bit.


I choose the Planet Spa body butters. I loved all of the ones I have tried and these two are newer scents so I thought I will test them out. They passed the first sniff test and soon I will start using them and I will see how they perform on the skin.
The last thing is the nail polish. They had a nice sale going on, buy two for 5 € and since my sister wanted one shade I choose another one for myself. I picked Siberia from the Gel range (one of my favorites). It is a dark shimmery blue shade and I can't wait to wear it.

Translucent powder

Hello,

I have started using different mattifying powder. For a couple of years I have been using the Essence one and I just thought it is time to switch things up and maybe try something new.


SkinFood Buckwheat Loose Powder in Transparent

This is SkinFood Buckwheat Loose Powder in Transparent. The packaging is quite big and bulky so it is not convenient for traveling but do you travel around with loose powder? I usually don't so for that I still have the pressed Essence one. Inside you get a big puff which you use to blot. I prefer to use the brush but I will still keep the fluff since it prevents the powder flying around.


SkinFood Buckwheat Loose Powder in Transparent

I got myself a transparent version but there are three others to choose from. Two skin colored and a lavender one for brightening effect. So far I like the product but I don't think it is anything special or better than the one I tried. I have to mention that it is very scented, if you like the baby powder scent, well this smells exactly like it. I haven't noticed any breakouts so I think it should be fine.

I think it is a nice product but I tend to go more towards the pressed versions so I don't think I will repurchase. I will continue using it and I will see how long it takes me to finish it because it contains 23 g and the Essence one only 8 g.

A little steam

Hello,

today I have prepared skincare post. This is the cream I have been using at night and recently I incorporated it in my day routine as well. This cream is very natural and has some interested technology hence the name The Steam Cream.


The Steam Cream

It was really popular a couple of years ago and I never understood why. Well, last year my sister was talking about it so I bought it for her for Christmas. They had special set, two creams for the price of one. They are not that cheap so I decided to take it and test one myself. I gave the prettier packaging to my sister so I was left with this rather vintage looking holiday inspired one which doesn't appeal to me to much.

The Steam Cream

I had so many creams already opened so I opened and tried it in warmer months. It has oils in it and my skin is already oily especially in the summer so I didn't like it at all. It was way too greasy but I liked the scent. It has lovely lavender smell to it and that is something I love. I again forgot about it and just recently I rediscovered it and I decided that it is time to use it up since it is a natural product and it will soon go bad.
I'm using it at night when I don't mind greasy face and my skin really likes it. The other day my skin was acting up and it was pretty dry so I applied thin layer all over my face, topped it of with a primer and BB cream and obligatory layer of powder and it was okay. I was so surprised that in the summer when I tried it it didn't worked but now in cooler months my skin loves it.
I would recommend it to everyone with a dry, flakey or dehydrated skin. Yes it is a bit on the expensive side but you need so little at the time and this tin is a bit bigger than your normal face cream, it holds 75 ml of products.

I'm honestly not so sure if I would repurchase at least not in the warmer months when my skin doesn't need such a rich cream. First I will try to use up everything I have and then I will see what works best for me.

My current favorite concealer

Hello,

for today I decided to switch things up a bit. I will show you my staple product which I have for a while now (I assume I will finish it soon) and so far this is my favorite concealer I have ever tried.


Misslyn cream concealer in no. 3 Porcelain

It is from a brand I don't hear much on other blogs. I often check what they have but because there aren't many reviews about their products I never really ventured into their make-up. One day I remember I was trying to find Revlon concealer but it was ether sold out or they didn't have it. Next to it it was Misslyn display and I found this little guy, I really needed a new concealer so I just took this one. It is Misslyn cream concealer in no. 3 Porcelain.


It is the lighter shade out of the two (not really much of a choice, right?). It is super light and yellow toned and this makes it perfect for me. It comes in a tube with an applicator just like a lip gloss. Coverage is rather high, specially if you layer two or three layers.

Misslyn cream concealer in no. 3 Porcelain

I use it under my eyes to conceal the darkness and on my blemishes. It really works for both problems. I don't use brush with it but I just tap it on with my fingers. I find that most products work best if you warm them up a bit and you can do it with applying it with fingers plus you don't need to wash brushes constantly. ;)
I can see that I'm getting really low on it and soon I will have to repurchase it.

face primer

Hello,

I tested another primer but this time I didn't enjoy it as I did with the first one. Sadly it is not the right one for my skin type.

The Saem Saemmul face Lightener

This is The Saem Saemmul face Lightener. There are three versions of it and I got the yellow one which is for dry skin. I knew it will be dewy but I didn't expect to make my skin so greasy. I like that it has SPF 30 in it but that is pretty much everything that I liked. My skin is already oily and this one on top of my moisturizer is too much. When I tried to put BB cream on, my skin felt so slippery and the BB cream just didn't stick to it. I rinsed it off right away and I didn't even wear it.



The product doesn't have a distinctive scent. The tube has a small nozzle which makes it easy to adjust the right amount. The product is slightly yellow tinted and when I spread it over my skin it made it paler and some small imperfections were blurred. 

I think it is a nice product, has a high sun protection but I think it would be more appropriate for someone with seriously dry skin or just for someone who likes extra dewy look.
I will use it up but not as a primer, in the warmer months I will use it on my hands as a sun cream and I will quickly be done with it.

Aussie

Hello,

the product I will show you today and my opinion of it could be a bit controversial. I googled reviews and pretty much everyone loves it, it works for them like a charm but I was left disappointed.

Aussie Miracle Dry Shampoo Aussome Volume

In the spring I bought this Aussie Miracle Dry Shampoo Aussome Volume. I saw another version but apparently there were three, according to their website (I saw that they repackaged everything so I'm not sure how many versions are available now or how do they perform).
The can is quite big, 180 ml but I don't remember how much I payed for it, probably around 5 €. The second thing I noticed is the smell. To me it smells like in the hair saloons, I can't quite explain. Maybe the scent is professional? Well, at first it is okay but then it gets up in my nose and I start sneezing, it is everywhere in the air. For my taste it is too much.
When I used it for the first time it glued my hair and I checked what the hell did I bought. On the bottle it clearly says that it is dry shampoo but on me it acts like a hair spray. Sure, if I spray enough the grease is gone but my hair are so sticky that I can't get my fingers through. Even in the shower I have to shampoo three times and massage it well to get every little bit of it out of my hair.
I'm just so disappointed with it. I gave it to my mom and she uses it as a hair spray.

Did you tried it? What are your experiences with it?

Petite Bunny

Hello,

today it started to snow again. It is also much colder than this past week. That made me think that it would be appropriate to include something balmy and moisturizing but also fun.

Tony Moly Petite Bunny gloss bar Juicy Peach

Isn't it cute? I'm normally not into pink and cutesy packaging but this little one really got me. I couldn't resist to try at least one.


The full name would be Tony Moly Petite Bunny gloss bar in the shade Juicy Peach. It is more pink than peach especially when I swatch it on the back of my hand. On the lips it gives a hint of gloss and a little bit of color.

Tony Moly Petite Bunny gloss bar Juicy Peach swatch

It has a very pleasant scent, it reminds me of candy but it is really faint. I have been using it for a month now and I can barely smell it. When I apply it on my lips it is non detectable. The formula is moisturizing but nothing too special. I had better lip balms for cheaper. I got mine of e-bay and they are little over 4 dollars. They are not too expensive but in my opinion they don't really deliver much. I like the cute packaging but everything else is rather average. I don't think I will buy more even though they look adorable. Maybe if I will find them on sale I will pick more and use them up and keep the empty packaging for decoration.

Avon lipsticks

Hello,

I really took my time with these two lipsticks. I wanted to see if they have the same formula as the rest of the lipsticks from this range since these two are part of the Autumn limited edition.


Avon Ultra Color Tempered and Romance

They are Avon Ultra Color lipsticks. They come in the standard black packaging except the foil in which they are wrapped is slightly different but other than that they are just like the rest. They came out with 6 new shades and after I checked the swatches online I decided only on these two and I'm in love.


Avon Ultra Color Tempered

This peachy one is called Tempered. It looks like there is some shimmer but on the lips you can't detect it. On the lips this one looks a bit brighter that in the tube and that sets it apart from some other peachy lipstick I have.


Avon Ultra Color Romance

This one is Romance. It is indeed very romantic dusty rose shade and on the lips it looks light and delicate. On the swatch it looks  a bit brown but on the lips it doesn't.


Avon Ultra Color Tempered and Romance

This line is one of my favorites. All of the lipsticks are so creamy and moisturising, no matter if my lips are dry and chapped when I apply them it smooths and softens the skin like a lip balm would. The colors that I picked out are soft and neutral, just perfect for me.
Avon lipsticks rarely disappoints me but lipsticks from their core line have always been amazing and my favorite. When I will use up some or if they will come out with more shades I will be the first to pick them out and try.

Essence advent calendar XVIII

Hello,

I forgot about this shade a bit, mostly because it is so bright and I'm not used to it. I have two or three hot pink shades (all were given to me) and I don't enjoy wearing them on my nails but I paint my toes with it and I like it.

Essence Have a very pink x-mas!

Its name is Have a very pink x-mas!. Season appropriate name but the color for me screams summer. The texture is nice, two coats for full opacity.

Essence Have a very pink x-mas!

Just because I'm not such a huge fan of colors like this I'm not sure if I will keep it and paint my little toes with it or I will give it away to someone who will appreciate it more.

Liquid lipstick

Hello,

this one is long overdue. I have bought this lip product a while ago and been using it a lot. I really fell in love with it.


Catrice Moulin's Rouge

Catrice released this limited edition called Alluring reds back in November and they still have it in some stores (I have a feeling it wasn't so popular).  I picked only one shade to test it out. I have Moulin's Rouge.


Catrice Moulin's Rouge

The color is nice and the formula is even better. It has a slight vanilla/caramel scent which is nice. The pigmentation is something medium which is ok, I prefer my glossy products to be lighter in color because it is just easier. The best thing is the balmy feeling on the lips, it is not sticky at all but rather cushiony. For a couple of days I was only using this baby, no lip balms and my lips were soft, moisturized and chap free. Seriously, I have a cold and that makes things even worst but not for this liquid lipstick. It manged to keep my lips nourished all day long.
I will probably get another color or at least one from the core range. I heard that they have the same texture.
This is my first Catrice lip gloss but certainly not the last one.

Extra lasting

Hello,

for today I decided to show you one cream eye shadow which blew my mind. I bought it a couple of months ago because it was super cheap but I saved it. I wanted to use up another cream eye shadow before I would start using this one, what a mistake to make.

Avon extra lasting cream eye shadow Totally taupe

Avon is selling this little pots of joy for a while now. They are sold under Extra lasting line and promises a lot. I was hesitant because my lids are extra oily and rarely anything stays put but like I said they had an awesome offer and I think I got this one for only 2€ or something similar.

Avon extra lasting cream eye shadow Totally taupe

Since I already own Maybelline color tattoo in bronze-y shade I opted for taupe. They have five colors in total (bronze, taupe gold, lavender and teal).  This one looked neutral and natural plus I don't have any similar shade. The pot is really small and I usually keep my nails long so I have a feeling it will get difficult to use it with my fingers so I will have to get some sort of a brush.

Avon extra lasting cream eye shadow Totally taupe

The texture is creamy but not too much and it is not crazy pigmented as the above mentioned tattoos are. I don't mind it because I prefer lighter eye shadows. There is also one more thing that makes this eye shadow better for me than the tattoos. The one from Maybelline creases on me within an  hour but this one even without a primer stays put for 7-8 hours.
The color is gorgeous. it is that perfect mix of gray, khaki green and some mushroom-y brown. It goes with pretty much everything and also with my grey/blue eyes.

I love the color, lighter pigmentation and staying power but I wish they would offer more shades and that the pots would have bigger opening so it would be easier to use them with fingers.

more Catrice stuff

Hello,

I'm so excited today. I found some more Catrice products. I went to the grocery store and casually I stopped at the  drugstore to see what's new. I don't remember anything from it all I know is that I saw the Absolute nude palette and the two eye shadows that I also wanted.

Catrice Absolute nude palette, New in Brown & Ooops...nude did it again!

The palette doesn't need any introduction, I believe everyone is already familiar with it.
I also caught the Ooops...nude did it again! and the more brown one is called New in brown (I think it will be great for the crease). Unfortunately the bronzers/blushes I was looking for were gone already so I will accept it. After all I got everything for the eyes I wanted, in total that is 10 eye shadows. I think I have more than enough for now.

Hello,

like I predicted I got bored of the plain dull blue color on my nails pretty fast so I used another super old nail polish to make it more interesting and also to bring back the memories.


Essence Blue addicted

Do you remember when Essence bottles were shaped like this? I still have four bottles which means that the polish inside is really old. I picked this one because I can't remember when was the last time I wore it.

It is called Blue addicted and I remember all the girls want crazy about it. I took my time and bought it a year or so later and still to this day I'm not so sure if I really like it that much. I do like glitters but only one color at the time. Here you can see that they mixed green and blue together and I think it is a little too much.
Well, since I don't have that much left and the polish still applies smooth like a butter I think I will use it up completely. Here I used only one coat and there is a lot of glitter in just one layer. maybe next time I will try with two layers but I remember that this one is really hard to remove...

e-bay package

Hello,

today I picked package from my post office. It came all the way from Korea and I was scared that it got lost like the last one did. Thankfully I ordered it through e-bay and I got full refund. I was scared because it was delayed for over than a week but it came and now is here with me.

Holika Holika dazzling sunshine make up sun cream spf 45 and the Saem Saemmul face lightener no.03

I ordered sun cream for my face since I still haven't found the right one for my oily face and I have tried a lot of them.
The second item is a primer/lightener. I read that it is great for dry skin (it got really cold outside and my skin is more dry plus I got a cold and that makes things even worse but I will at least test it properly).

Catrice is on sale

Hello,

I hit the shops today to see if Catrice items are already on sale. Not only that they already reduced the prices but mostly everything was sold out. Imagine my surprise. I thought that the sales haven't even started yet. Even the Essence stand was half empty and the prices are still full. Apparently a lot of awesome products are leaving us because girls already bought everything. Well, after I visited three different drugstores I manged to find these two.

Catrice Princess Mattleine and Vanillaty Fair

I haven't tried them but I heard only good things about this line of eye shadows. I picked only the most neutral and light two shades. The first one, more flesh toned is called Princess Mattleine and off-white is Vanillaty Fair.
Probably this is all I will get from Catrice. I'm okay with it because they are really beautiful and I know I will wear them a lot but I wish I would get the palette as well, at least one for my sister.
