When we decide to live healthy it has to be a lifetime commitment that we make for ourselves! We don't do it for other people, this is a choice we make in order to take care of our body the best as we can.

Is being Vegan or Vegetarian a fancy thing these days?

The set comes with a 30 ml cream and 10 pieces of cleansing cloths.

Estee Lauder Multi-Protection Anti-Oxidant Sheer Tint Release Moisturizer
Estee Lauder Multi- Protection Anti-Oxidant Sheer Tint Release Moisturizer SPF 15 (15ml size)
Wow that is a mouthful! I got this moisturizer a while back because I had a voucher at my local cosmetics store, it seemed an interesting product to me, and because Estee Lauder is really good in her skincare I thought I give it a go.

Used up beauty products
I've used up quite a lot of products in the last few weeks.There are some face, body and haircare bits.
Some of them I will repurchase, and others I will not. Let's see what goes in my bin:
Batiste Dry shampoo: I will be repurchasing this because I can't live without it. It is my favorite dry shampoo brand for sure.
Sebastian Potion 9 styling treatment: this product lasted me for at lest two years with weekly use.This is a gel styling treatment,that transforms into an oil once you warm it up in the palm of your hand, which is the way I recommend using it. I really enjoyed using this product, it worked great in conjunction with the Moroccanoil hair treatment or with the Oribe Gold Lust nourishing hair oil. For now, I will not repurchase this, because I want to try out some other hair treatments, but it is a good product, and I do recommend it.
Living Proof restore mask treatment: I didn't like this product,it took me a good year to finish it up.I will not repurchase.
Redken hair cleansing cream shampoo: i used this shampoo every other time I washed my hair, to get rid of the build up on the hair and scalp. It did a decent job, but I will not repurchase it.
Bioderma Purifying cleansing foaming gel: I use this with my Clarisonic and I find it to be the best product for that purpose. I have a back up of this product already.
REN 3 in 1 cleansing water: I don't like this product, it doesn't remove the makeup, and I also don't like the scent of it. I used it on days I didn't wear any makeup, just to wipe of the dirt at the end of the day from the skin.

Skin
The Body Shop Camomile Cleansing Oil: this is a really good makeup remover oil. It has a very pleasent, relaxing scent, and removes makeup effortlessly, but the packaging is awful.The oil is leaking on the sides and makes an oily mess around itself. Will not repurchase.Bioderma Purifying cleansing foaming gel: I use this with my Clarisonic and I find it to be the best product for that purpose. I have a back up of this product already.
REN 3 in 1 cleansing water: I don't like this product, it doesn't remove the makeup, and I also don't like the scent of it. I used it on days I didn't wear any makeup, just to wipe of the dirt at the end of the day from the skin.
Body
Aromatheraphy Associates Revive Morning bath and shower oil: this was a gift with purchase, and although I enjoyed using it and it can really help you to wake up and feel energized in the morning, I don't think I will purchase this any time soon.
Lastly, the L'occitane Almond shower oil is a body product I will deffinitely repurchase, and in the bigger size.Lovely product to use at the end of the day, the scent is really pleasent, and the product is really hydrating and feels nice on the skin.
What products did you use up?

Recent favorite makeup products
I don't do monthly favorites just because I feel like I don't have that many new products to share every single month, so I rather share them once in a while in a Recent favorites post. This way the products I am sharing are truly the ones I wear over and over again, and deserve to be featured on my blog.

Shopping my stash: Diorskin Nude Air Foundation
Although I have oily combination skin, during winter time my skin gets so dry and flacky, that my usual foundations such as the Estee Lauder Double Wear, and the ByTerry Cover Expert don't provide enough hydration and care for my skin throughout the day.

Expensive lip care : Gatineau DefiLift 3D Perfect Design Revolumising lip care
This product was sent to me as a gift with purchase from Feelunique, probably my favorite site to shop for beauty products. It retails for 30£, which I think it's a pretty crazy price to pay for a lip balm/treatment.

5 Things I would rather buy Luxury than Drugstore #3
Sometimes it's just the packaging and the Brand that makes high end products more expensive but sometimes it's trully the quality, formula and variety that makes them worth that price tag.
If you are on a budget, but you are into makeup, I think this list will really help you decide on what to splurge on and on which type of products you can/should save money on.

Luxury Makeup Regrets #2
Just because some makeup products are expensive and cost a fortune that doesn't mean that they worth the price, and will perform accordlingly to it.
I gave into the hypes and raves and purchased these items expecting them to be awesome and I was dissapointed. I really do regret buying them. But maybe it's just me, because for others they earned even the HG status.

5 Products I would rather buy Drugstore than Luxury #4
Drugstore products can have the same quality as the luxury ones, sometimes just the packaging makes the difference. In my opinion, there are some type of makeup products that simply do not worth to splurge on. I would rather buy them from the drugstore, and splurge on the items that really worth paying the extra money for.
18 November 2015
All time raved about drugstore makeup #3
Over all these years of reading blogs and watching youtube I have seen a couple of products pop up as favorites in many many girls posts and videos. They raved about them for months or even years. Of course, not every product will suit everybody, or end up in everybody's favorites, because we all have different opinions, expectations regarding makeup products.

Fall outfit and daily blogging for two weeks
I was thinking it would be fun to do a drugstore makeup themed week, and then a luxury makeup one. I will have daily posts about my favorites, regrets, face of the days, and many more.
Monday: I will talk about my current Drugstore/ Luxury Makeup Favorites
Tuesday: Drugstore/ Luxury Makeup Regrets
Wednesday: My opinion about *5* Drugstore/ Luxury items that worth the hype
Thurstday: 5 items I would rather buy Drugstore than Luxury/ 5 items I would rather buy Luxury than Drugstore
Friday: Face of the Day using Drugstore/ Luxury products
Saturday: Current Drugstore Wishlist/ Luxury Wishlist
Sunday: Favorites for every product category
The first topic will go up starting with Monday November 16, so subscribe to my newsletter if you want to keep up with it!
I hope you like this idea, I think it will be fun, something new and exciting!Definitely a challenge for me, but I am up for it!
Because this post is so short I thought I share with you an outfit I wore these days. I am taking advantage of the Sunny days, while they last, so I wore a black leather jacket with a giant HM scarf from last years collection. This look is simple, yet it has some intersting details such as my new boots. I love animal printed shoes/boots in this case, or even clothing items, it might be because otherwise my taste for clothing would be quite boring for some of you, basically consisting of black, camel, or grey colored clothing most of the time.

Contouring with a contour pencil
I find it's the easiest to contour with a contour stick or contour pencil.Grab the pencil, draw the lines where you want to add the shadow and just blend it in with a brush or a beauty blender.

3 DIY Masks using Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is such a versatile multitasker product.It can be used in the kitchen but it deserves a Gold medal in the beauty industry aswell. I am all about masks in genaral, I use a face mask, and hair mask every single week once or twice. I feel that masks really are THE key product to a healthy looking skin and hair.
In the colder months when the skin and the hair is exposed to the cold/dry air, it tends to suffer from dryness, and it becomes itchy and flaky. Trying to help my hair and skin feel like normal, I came up with 3 different types of masks, one for each of these areas: hair, face, and also hands, that will work wonders and really help.

KIKO Make up Haul
KIKO is a make up brand from Milano, Italy. They are know to have a huuuge variety of make up products, that are super affordable with a great quality, and they also have skincare items such as make up removers, masks, face creams etc.
I was already familiar with the brand and previously tried a couple of their products, so it wasn't all new to me. Because I enjoyed using their products in the past I was curious about some of their new-ish releases. Or new to me because I don't have a KIKO store next to me.

I am sadly running low on my favorite setting powder, *Dior Loose Powder*, and me being a makeup lover and constatly having a wishlist I though I will try something new instead of repurchasing my current one, so for a long time now I had my eye on two other setting powders, one of them being the MAC Prep+Prime Transparent Finishing Powder.

Inglot AMC gel eyeliner and Duraline Review
Gel eyeliner is a staple product in my makeup collection. I do the eyeliner look pretty much every time I do my makeup, but after I reached the half of the gel liner pot it tends to dry out and becomes hard to use.This is when Duraline comes in handy.

Maybelline The Nudes eyeshadow palette
When it comes to eyeshadows I always tend to splurge a little bit more and buy something that I know it won't dissappoint in therms of quality, and pigmentation. I love my Urban Decay Naked 1 palette, Too Faced palette etc, these brands are famous for the quality of their shadows. So I didn't know what to expect from the Maybelline palette, Maybelline being a drugstore brand.

Clinique Take the day off for lids, lashes & lips |Review
Hello everybody!
I am in vacation now, and as you do when in vacation, you go shopping. So, recently I got some cool new beauty products and one of them is a makeup remover from Clinique. The Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm is on my wishlist for a long time now, but I never seem to find it in stock. Everybody raves about it and the fact that is out of stock must approve that.

Face of the day| Estee Lauder DW
This post will be a little bit of a shout out and a FOTD. The highlight of todays makeup is definitely the foundation that I used. The Estee Lauder Double Wear is one of the best foundations I used when it comes to longevity and resisting the heat on a hot summer day. I find it to be very similar to the Giorgio Amani Lasting Silk. The formula, the texture and the finish that it gives is very comparable.

Classic RED nails
I consider myself pretty boring when it comes to nails. I tend to wear the classic colors such as a nude, red , a dark navy and a ballerina pink. Of course I have some other fun colors in my collections, but I rarely venture out and use them.

Affordable Nude Lip Combination
The Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet lipstick collection has been around for quite a while now and I think we have to agree that the colors, the formula and the price of these is amazing. They are creamy, light textured, opaque, and long lasting. They feel really comfortable on the lips all throughout the day.

Products I want to finish up
We all tend to jump on the bandwagon where we buy new products and then the old ones get two steps back in our makeup drawer. I am guilty of buying constantly new stuff and then just use them and forget about all the other ones. Once in a while we should 'shop' our collection and for sure we will discover some old favorites we forgot about. This could turn out to be a really exciting thing.

Review | Diorskin Nude Air Serum Foundation
This is the second serum type foundation that I try.I have previously tried the Giorgio Armani Maestro Fusion foundation and I wasn't a big fan of it. The formula was too sheer for my liking.But this is another story.

As summer is just around the corner and the weather is already warming up I feel quite ready for the brighter lipsticks. I have a couple of lip products on my wishlist, but now I am writing about the first that I bought with all these ideas in my mind about tanned skin, sipping cocktails and summer vacation.

Budget Buy |Nubian Heritage African Black Soap
I initially bought this soap because it promisses to help with oily- problematic skin and also with eczema. So I figured I will be using this in the morning, as my morning face wash, but I didn't liked it, it didn't really do anything that it promisses. So I just forgot about it and I 'd put it away in my medical cabinet.

I am not a big toner or cleansing water user, but every once and awhile I do use them, and it's just a simple product that comes in handy.

Concealer Routine
I never use to have dark circles problems, but since I started working, waking up at 6 o'clock 5 times a week, I can now sadly say that I now suffer from puffy eyes and dark circles. I admit it is not easy to get rid of dark circles, but I think I found the perfect products for that.
