My birthday shopping no.3

 Hello,

I am back with another part of my birthday shopping.

First is Joocyee Spiral Shell Glazed Lip Gloss in the shade Peach Jellyfish (I loved the name plus the shade looked quite natural).

Two lipsticks there are also Joocyee Crystal Jell Mirror Lipsticks in Spring Peach and Awakening Sakura. I have to admit that the packaging is truly beautiful (there are also some other color versions of this yellow toned packaging and I am super interested but first I would like to try these to to see how the formula is like).

In the middle there is Nivea Japan Deep Moisture Night Protect Honey scent lip butter. In the past they had under Labello these lip butters in tin packaging (just like their famous cream) which were just amazing but they discontinued them :( so it was only natural to pick this one when I saw it, to see if they are good like the old ones.

On the bottom there are Canmake Powder cheeks in Powerful Pink, Little Shy Pink and Clever Beige (this one is more cream than beige but I am okay with it). They look so shiny, I can't wait to try them out.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

My birthday shopping no.2

 Hello,

yesterday was only one part of my shopping. Today I am sharing some more items, that I decided to get to treat myself for a B-day.

I would like to start with Rom&nd blush from their limited edition with Inapsquare, it is Better than Cheek in the shade Ginger Night. Pale apricot with a little nude thrown in the mix.

Then there is shiny lipstick from Etude Color Lasting Glow Stick in the shade Rosy Taupe, I have to try it out but at first glance it doesn't look Rosy or Taupey.

Similar shade of blush from Bbia Last Blush in Juliet Rose. This one looks a tad more vivid but still very neutral and toned down.

In the bottom right corner is big pot of Skinfood Honey Sugar Food Mask Lip Sleeping Pack, not only it has such a ridiculously long name the packaging contains whopping 21 g of product.

There are two Joocyee Long-lasting Glossy Rouges in Oceanic theme, Diamond Sea and Pink Ocean. There is a lot of different shades but these two spoke to me the most.

For my brows I decided to get Etude Drawing eye brow in Dark Grey. I am filling my brows with powder but I decided to try something 'new' for me and I got this pencil. I had some before but I always found powder to be the easiest to apply with an angled brush, I want to see if I changed my mind and now pencil will become my best friend.

Lastly there is another blush from Rom&nd, Better Than Cheek Mutural Nude series in  Lychee Chip. This one has pretty sparkles in it and that was the selling point for me.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

My birthday shopping no.1

 Hello,

this is part 1 of my birthday haul. I recently turned year older and I treated myself with something new, not that I need more make-up ;)

If I start from the top middle there is Etude mask proof fixing tint in Dusty Beige. I keep hope that eventually I will like matte lips :)

Next are two shiny compacts from About Tone Fluffy Wear Blushers in Bubbly Orange Peach and Dreamy Raspberry. I did not expect such a shiny outer packaging, on the sun I could blind someone.

Then going clockwise are three Bbia Overglaze tints in Peach Syrup, Fig Syrup and Grape Syrup (it is a collection of Syrup from different fruit) and I just couldn't resist. When it comes to juicy fruit I seem to forget my sanity.

At the bottom there is 2aN gift with purchase, Glaze Bouncing Tint in Peach Alle, I think this is a shade that they sell in full size as well.

Above is the last item, also from 2aN and it is their Pure Glash Highlighter in Clear shade. This one looked the most natural among their shades.

I will have a lot of fun trying out all of this items.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Unleashia Tanghulu glaze tints

 Hello,

I purchased these two from the same collection but one is not like the other.

They are Unleashia Tanghulu glaze tints in Ice Sugar and Angel Pink. They call them tints but the blue one is just a lip gloss, it can be worn alone but on top of the lip tint sparkles really comes out to play.

They both have teardrop applicators but the Ice Sugar has slightly smaller opening, that prevents too much product to come out at once but I find that it scraps too much of and I have to go back to get a decent amount on my lips.

They have a slight minty scent and tingle but fortunately it goes away pretty fast, if I get some of it in my mouth it feels like toothpaste :)

Ice Sugar looks clear on the lips with blue and pink shimmer particles, if worn alone it is not very visible but layered they are more fun and obvious. Shine lasts for about one hour.

Angel Pink is more rosy and it looks pretty natural on me, I really like this type of shades on me. It applies smooth and evenly. It is not super glossy (after a few minutes it does get shinier) but it fades after one hour and then the stain also starts fading. 

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

House of Hur moist ampoule blusher

 Hello,

today is the day to show you my blush. I have been wearing it non stop lately and if you would ask me a few months ago what do I think about cream/liquid blushes my reply would be: not for me, I am a powder blush girl through and through. This started to shift with my skin starting to get more dry. I am reaching for a creamier products and thicker lotions. My make-up is starting to reflect my skin concerns and the brand is claiming that there is over 50% hydrating essence inside this bottle so I had to see it for myself ;)

It is House of Hur moist ampoule blusher in Cherry Blossom. I actually did not pick it, it was a gift with purchase. Thankfully it is a shade I would pick myself and it looks lovely on me, if I might add :)

I received 10 ml glass bottle, larger ones have pump, this one has angled applicator. I like this, because I feel like I have more control over it. I just wipe some on the back of my hand and then dab a little on my cheeks.

This amount is enough for about ten applications for me. This is soft but still bright rosy pink shade, quite neutral or maybe leaning on the warm side. There is no shimmers but has some wet glow. 

I find this one to be very pigmented, so a little goes a long way but still easy to work with. 

I love applying it over my foundation, then spraying fixing spray and applying a little powder on top to lock it. Applied like this it lasts all day long on me. 

I love the bottle, the shade is lovely and it blends into my skin and foundation really flawlessly, as long as I don't apply too much.

I am really happy with this blush and now I am eying also Nude Beige shade for a more natural look.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Purity and See-Through

 Hello,

these are different because of their odd applicator, I guess the brand name gives it away :)

Oddtype Unseen Ballon tint in Purity and See-Through. Packaging is rather big on these but the product inside is only 3g. They call them tints but there is no stain left behind, to me they are lip glosses.

These have the weirdest applicators ever. They look like eye shadow brushes, super dense with tons of product. They are soaked and carry way too much, I got used to just wipe the excess over the edge of the tube not to waste any.

Purity is light peach shade, quit sheer on the lips and color barely shows  on my lips (to make these swatches I used a lot of product just to show the colors).

See-through is a true lavender shade, it has a little more pigment and to create this swatch I used less than Purity.

There is no scent or taste and the shine is incredible. They have this formula when they apply semi glossy but after a few minutes turn mirror like. I love the effect and the shine lasts over one hour.

The finish is beautiful and the applicator is pure joy to use. I am looking into soft pink shade with some shimmer. I know I shouldn't get it but I just might splurge.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Empties

 Hello,

this is the second part of my March empties, this pack is made of smaller items but I am still glad t muve them in the recycling bin.

Let start with a Catrice Gel like top coat. It had a nice consistency and created very shiny, glossy top coat over my nail polishes. I liked this one but there are others which I find just as good as this one.

Second is Kneipp Apricot & Marula lip balm. I had high hopes for it but it felt short. The scent is sweet and nice but the texture is hard and after a few minutes (after it warms up on my lips) it gets sticky, it felt like I applied glue on my lips and I decided that it is just not worth it. Mine isn't completely finished but I don't care, I don't like it enough to finish it.

First gloss is Catrice from My Jewels, My Rules collection in the option Apricot Crush. It had light apricot base with shimmers but the color did not translate onto the lips. It had weird soapy scent. It was okay but nothing worthy of repurchasing for me.

Next is my bellowed Catrice lip gloss obsessed in Same gloss, different day shade. Pale pinky nude shade and with the most gorgeous gourmand scent. On the lips shade wasn't obvious but the feeling was exquisite and I loved that. It doesn't hold much product but it also doesn't cost much so I can see myself repurchasing it in the near future.

Pink bottle is Nyx #this is everything lip oil. It was clear lip oil with no scent and with a thin formula. If I applied too much it started dripping down my chin, if I applied regular amount then it was gone after a few minutes (from 10 to 15 min) and that resulted in me constantly reapplying it and this 8 ml bottle was soon finished. I will not be buying it again because this did nothing for hydration and my lips quickly dried up.

This mini Clarins Wonder Volume XXL mascara made clumps and I don't love that. At first it was okay but the longer I had it opened the more obvious it would get, to top that off it dropped my curl and then my lashes looked sad and straight. I had nicer mascaras or maybe more suited for my stubborn lashes, so I will not be buying big size.

Last bottle is Lancome Idole EDP. I love this scent and I have already used up one 25 ml bottle (I still have a large one left :). This is just a mini but the gorgeous fresh and sweet Rose scent lingers all day long and it just makes me happy :) Ten out of ten scent for me.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day
