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:

                                                  
   



Hair

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.

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.

Affordable burgundy nailpolish

Affordable but good quality nail polish is quite hard to find but Maybelline get's it right in that department.

Jo Malone Blackberry & Bay Cologne

I got this perfume as a Christmas gift, but it wasn't a surprise or unknown scent for me, as it was already on my wishlist.

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.

Budget Buy: Aussie Repair Miracle Shampoo

I am very faithful to Sulfate and Paraben free shampoos. They are the best and  healthiest choice in therms of shampoos, and you can see a huge difference in your hair once you start using products withouth these harmful ingredients..

Detoxify your skin | Start the New Year with healthy and glowy skin

My skin is going thru a rough time lately. I've been breaking out, it is dry and flaky, dehydrated, I have rosacea and it lost its firmness, plumpness and glowyness. Makeup doesn't look good on it, therefor I decided to make some serious changes.

Sally Hansen nail polish rave

And my Love for the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure continues...this is my favorite affordable nail polish formula, it beats OPI, sorry OPI...Allthough in my country the shade range is not as big as I would like, the classic colors like red, nude, dark burgundy I can easily find.

Here is mine, allthough these items are not cheap *except maybe the firts two*, and trust me I am fully aware of that, but I am allowed to dream and wish to receive them am I?

NYX Cosmetics Review

NYX is a drugstore brand that has a huge selection of makeup products, they are what I would describe as "the affordable version of a professional makeup brand". They have some products that worth checking out, and paying attention to.

Real Techniques Expert Face Brush Review

This is not a surprise that I like using RT brushes,because I spoke about them several times on my blog. They are affordable brushes, with synthetic bristles, and their quality is really good. Recently I purchased the Expert Face Brush, and I would like to share my thoughts about it.
