Review: e.l.f Mineral Infused Face Primer

Image
Hi! Today I have elf Mineral Infused Face Primer review for you. I have been loving this face primer ever since I got it ( I can´t even remember when that was). T his is the product that I use when I need flawless finish without any appearing wrinkles. I have been using it with foundation and also with BB creams.  What they promise on e.l.f website "Transform your face into a flawless and smooth canvas with the Mineral Infused Face Primer. Developed to combat against excess oil, flaky dryness, enlarged pores and fine lines. This clear multipurpose skin primer will prepare your skin so makeup goes on evenly for a long lasting satin finish."   Ingredients Cyclomethicone, Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Silica, Penoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben.     e.l.f. Mineral Infused Face Primer comes in stylish plastic bottle with pump. For travelling this probably ain´t the most convenient packaging. The formula of this primer is kind of weird - greasy ...

NOTD: Sally Hansen Gem Crush Bling-tastic 04

Image
 Hi! Actually this is more like a nails of the week post since I have been wearing Sally Hansen Gem Crush Bling -tastic 04 on my nails for 6 days now.  On my nails you can see 3 coats of 04 Bling-tastic without any topcoat. It is pretty glitter polish. The clear base contains small  blue glitter and some bigger silver ones. It lasts about 2-3 days on my nails without top coat. When it comes to removing this polish then I advise you to try aluminium foil method.

Review: Byphasse Eyes Make-up Remover

Image
Hi! Today I have Byphasse Eyes Make-up Remover  review for you. I bought it because I needed new eye makeup remover fast and so I just went  and bought something cheap (I think it was around €3). Years ago when I studied at university then I used to use Byphasse cleansing milk and toning water and they were pretty good and so I hoped that maybe this one will be good, too.  What they promise on the packaging "The Eye make-up remover Byphasse with Chamomile extract eliminates and cleans carefully the makeup residues without irritating your skin. Suitable for all skin types." Byphasse Eyes Make-up Remover comes in 200ml plastic bottle. It has nice rose water scent (that might be too overpowering for some). And i guess  the scent is only thing I like about it.  What I hate about this makeup remover is that it takes forever to take off my eye makeup and it happens quite often that it doesn´t remove mascara completely and so I end up looking like a panda and when it g...

Review: Nivea Aqua Effect Refreshing Wash Gel

Image
I bought Nivea Aqua Effect face wash in February, because my Orjene Organics Foaming face wash ran  out and I needed a new one fast. So I went to the first store and decided to dry this Nivea  product.  Ingredients Nivea Aqua Effect Refreshing Wash Gel is suitable for normal skin. It is promised to clean skin deeply and respect the skin's own moisture balance. It invigorates the skin with its refreshing formula. The formula with vitamin E is mild. First impressions of this wash gel were pretty good because my skin felt really fresh and nicely clean. But after using it for couple of weeks I started noticing that it made my skin quite dry and unpleasantly tight.  It is promised to be mild, but I am not very sure about that and I really would not recommend it for sensitive skin , because even I who do not have sensitive skin, felt from time to time a stingy feeling around my nose that I didn´t like. What I liked is that it did take off all my makeup (and even mascara!!!) very...

Hi! Today I have a guest post for you written by Isabella Franklin.  With plastic surgery clinics providing everything from nose jobs to tummy tucks, it can be easy to look good – if you have the funds. Sure, there are many flexible finance option available these days, but there are also ways to perfect your appearance on a shoestring.Raid your kitchen cupboards Why spend a fortune on exfoliating bath creams and soaps when you don’t have to? Natural abrasives such as salt and sugar work just as well and are sure to be a lot cheaper than some of the top-end beauty products out there. Simply combine the granules with olive oil or soft butter and gently massage over your body in small concentric circles. This will remove dead skin cells, improve circulation and leave you with a soft, silky complexion. Whip up a natural facemask While we’re on the subject of food, fruit makes a wonderful facemask.
