Drugstore favorites for all categories #7

As my last post of my Drugstore themed week I will share my favorites for each category.Some products I still own some I already used up, but if I were to name a favorite in that category I would choose these.

21 November 2015

Drugstore Wishlist #6

My drugstore wishlist mostly consists of my favorite Makeup Artists recommendations. They like and use these products for years now, so they must be really good, therefore I would like to try them out aswell.

Face of the day using drugstore products #5

FOTD using mostly drugstore products. I say mostly because currently I don't own any drugstore foundation or mascara. I do plan on purchasing some but for now I had to replace them with my high end ones.

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.

Drugstore makeup regrets #2

The second post of this week is my current drugstore makeup regrets. Even if these items didn't cost me a lot of money, sometimes even that amount of money was too much to pay for them.

Drugstore Makeup Favorites #1

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.

04 November 2015

Feelunique order and some used up products

Finishing up beauty products feels like a true accomplishement, and getting new ones feels quite exciting. Not just because shopping is involved, but because we beauty junkies love to try and test out new products, see what's new and perhaps better.

5 Healthy breakfast ideas to start the day right

As the second post about my lifestyle and healthy living tips, I thought I'll share my all time favorite breakfasts. This is literally what I eat most of my mornings and I simply never get tired of it.
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Having your breakfast every morning is the first step to a healthier lifestyle.

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.

Fall Halo Smokey Eye Look

It was about time I do a makeup look, more precisely an eye look. About a week ago I hauled the Morphebrushes 35 C matte eyeshadow palette, and I felt inspired to do a fall look with it.

MAC Prep+Prime Transparent Finishing Powder Review

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.

12 October 2015

Morphebrushes palettes and brushes haul

I always saw makeup artists posting pictures about these great eyeshadow palettes from Morphebrushes and I was always curious to try them out. I was browsing the Beautybay website and saw they started to carry the line at a very good price range. Then a haul happened.

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.

Travel adventures in Marrakech

Ah-mazing and beautiful Marrakech!
Marrakech is such a charming place to visit, it has so many good restaurants, the Souks where you can! and should! always bargain, the Jardin Majorelle that is known to be Yves Saint Laurent's house and of course the famous Jemaa El -Fna square and market place in the medina quarter which becomes alive when the Sun goes down!

Fall beauty essentials 2015

Allthough Fall is not my favorite season weather wise, I do love the variety and color scheme for the makeup and for clothes aswell. Deep, seductive, misterious perfume scents, burgundy and warm brown eyeshadow colors are by far my most used makeup/ beauty products.

Preparing for Fall/ Winter in 5 Steps

I know everybody likes Fall/ Winter season, but I am a fan of Spring and Summer, so my heart is crying now that Fall is trully here in every shape and form. Days are getting shorter, the weather is rainy, windy and chilly. If you're like me, trying to survive this period,  I have a couple of  beauty/fashion and also lifestyle advices, how you can make these months pass by easier, not quicker though, and make the best out of it as possible.

Lifestyle post #1 Diet and workout

I am starting a lifestyle series that will be either about my diet, my workout routine or just in general some inspiration and lifestyle topics.

11 September 2015

L'occitane Arlésienne Candle

L'occitane is a brand I have much love for. They are an exquisite French brand that I discovered ages ago, and tried many of their products.

10 September 2015

Maybelline FIT ME| Instant Anti-Age The Eraser concealer

I want to start off by saying that I absolutely love these Maybelline concealers. If you are one of those people who still didn't tried any if these two, please do so.

06 September 2015

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.

Vacation Beauty Haul

I came in vacation with a list of beauty items I want! or need! to purchase. I needed a makeup remover, shampoo and some other basics, but I also wanted to buy a new perfume.

Clarins Double Serum Review

I got this Anti -aging serum as a present for my mom's birthday back in May this year. I thought it might be helpful for some of you if I share with you her experience and thoughts on this product.

28 July 2015

La Roche-Posay Hydraphase Intense Legere Review

My skin craved for a product that helps with the oiliness I get in the Summer,  keeps my skin matte throughout the day, and gives the hydration it needs soo much.

26 July 2015

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.

23 July 2015

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.

Makeup bag MUST haves | 5 Products

If you are someone who wears makeup on a daily basis you have to have some key products in your makeup bag, just in case your makeup needs a touch-up, just a little SOS. I thought it would be interesting to share my touch-up must haves and why I consider them essentials.

Summer Perfume Wishlist

I am finishing up some perfumes from my current  perfume collection so I want to get my hands on some new ones. I have a perfume wishlist, the only problem is that I never actually smelled these perfumes. So I need a little help from you, basically from every person who crosses this blogpost, and has some recommendations for me. I will share my current wishlist as well as my current favorites so you get an idea of the perfumes I like and what I am thinking of.

08 July 2015

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.

01 July 2015

June Favorites| 2015

This month I felt like I was on 'repeat' mode. I am not kidding,every product I used, I used it over and over again. Same eyeshadow looks, same perfume, same nail polish.These are truly my most used and loved products in the month of June.

Top 10 all year round favorite products

We always feature monthly favorites but those tend to be newly discovered products in that specific month. What about those products we could feature in every months favorites? Without mentioning them every time here are my top 10 products I could feature in my monthly favorites * every single month*.

23 June 2015

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.

Top 10 Summer Beauty Essentials

Summer is the season when some products become 'can't live without ones' because you just need them to survive the warm weather, or to look and feel fabulous all the time.
These 10 products are my favorite and deserve a place in the top essentials when it comes to surviving the summer heat.

28 May 2015

New products for the cheeks

Products I used up | Empties

These products were all very very loved and often used by me, so it is not a surprize I finished them. For some of them I already have a back up, and some need to be repurchased.

08 May 2015

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.

04 May 2015

New lip color | Ghivenchy Rose Dressing

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.

April Favorites| 2015

I feel like this month I shopped my stash. I rediscovered some old favorites, and that really makes me happy and proud of myself.Do you ever feel like that? And also some new goodies, of course.

21 April 2015

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.

15 April 2015

Current beauty wishlist| 5 Products

This post will be short and sweet, where I will be sharing my current beauty products wishlist.I am aware these are high end products, but after all this is a wishlist, with some products I wish to have. I might get some of these in the near future but not all of them at the same time. Hope you enjoy!

13 April 2015

My cleansing routine

Taking the makeup off and cleansing your skin thoughrily must be a step you should never skip. I make sure I never go to sleep with my makeup on.Never. I have quite a  problematic skin, so I made a RULE to I take those extra minutes and cleanse my face.

12 April 2015

First Impressions | Zoeva brushes

Last week my order from Zoeva came in, and it made my day. These brushes were on my wishlist for months now, and now that I have them I wish I got them earlier. I wanted to try their eye and face brushes so this is what I got:

10 April 2015

Budget Buy| Nivea Pure and Natural Cleansing Toner

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.

05 April 2015

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.

High end and some affordable beauty Haul


The one and only haul,  where my wallet is crying but ..oh well. 
Did you notice, that ironically we all tend to run out of our shampoo, conditioner, skincare *you name it * products all at the same time, so a re-purchase of those products is just necesarry? Well this is exactly what happened.

28 February 2015

Products I used up in February


I finished up * again* quite a lot of products. Lately I have been into finishing what I have so I can make place for the new products, new formulas, new brands I want to try out. Some of these I will repurchase for sure, because they are my HG but some I am actualy glad to finish up. So lets see.

Daytime appropriate contouring routine

Contouring the face is my favorite part when it comes to makeup.When its done properly it can make all the difference. My favorite way to contour is first with a cream product, and then with a powder product to set everything in place.

14 February 2015

Products I hit pan on

I think we will all agree that if we hit pan on an eyeshadow or some sort of face powder, it means they were used and loved by us. Otherwise, they would be in the back of our make up drawers, long forgotten by us. Am I right?

08 February 2015

Little but sweet beauty haul

These are some needed and some craved products but oh well we beauty addicts always find a way to justify why we buy new products. We want them or need them...the result is the same at the end, we have to own them.

My favorite beauty S.O.S. tips to help you survive the Winter dryness


This Winter really made me suffer from dryness. I never had skin so dry before.I am talking dry hands, lips, and basically dryness all over my body. I have been trying out everything that I can to get it back to normal and so far these tips are what made my skin feel like normal again.

1.If you have that extra 10 minutes..take your hand cream to the next level. Have you ever tried moisturizing gloves before? They are basically normal gloves that are ment to be used when you apply your handcream. They work better when used overnight. A Spa for your hands. Extra tip: use some kind of essencial oil with your moisturizer, it will have better results.

2. I don't know about you, but my lips are DRY this Winter. Don't know what happened but all I can say that I cannot wait this Winter to be over. My lips are dry and flaky and the only thing that helps me is to use a mild lip scrub every other day, to get rid of the dry flaky skin, and then using a heavy lip balm to create a tick layer of protection. I have a DIY home made lip scrub recipe that is basically fine sugar mixed with honey and maybe a couple of drops of some essential oil to make it more spa-like.The lip balm I have been using is the Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour lip balm.

3. Dry patches on the face and body: the answer is shea butter. Shea butter is the only thing that helps me.The higher prerentage of shea butter the better.  Just apply it on the areas where you need it and it will do its magic.It is the best hydrating solution that I know of. My favorite body butter is from L'occitane,but many brands do them like The Body Shop, Dove, Jergens, etc. 

Extra tips: 
1.Wear gloves and hats when you are out and about, it will make the difference. It will protect your hair, your scalp, and hands.
2.When taking a shower or a bath, use bath oils/shower oils, this way you will moisturize your skin in an extra way. Loccitane Almond oil shower oil is my Favorite.
3.Drink water, and drink plenty of it. It can be a hot tea, doesn't matter, we need to hydrate ourselves even in Winter.
4.Use a hydrating face mask lets say two times a week, also a hair mask at least every other time you wash your hair. If you don't have time during the day, then use one that is ment to be used overnight like the Origins Drink Up Intense moisturizer mask, or a pre-wash hair mask like the Philip Kingsley Elasticizer.


Did you find these tips helpful?I hope it gave you some ideas how to fight Winter dryness.

Share your tips with me and everybody else who will be reading this.


Have a Happy Sunday!

January Favorites

Hello everyone! I actually thought I din't had any outstaing favorite products this month but when I looked thru my makeup drawers I remembered that there are some really good products that I discovered in the last month.

25 January 2015

Daytime soft eye look with a pop of color


The main focus of this look are deffinitely the eyes. I tried to create a soft daytime appropriate eye look using some eyeshadows I raved about recently, and for fun I used some color just to make it more interesting.
There is no doubt that the Loreal L'Ombre Pure eyeshadows are some of my favorite eyeshadow as of late and I reach for them a lot ever since I got them.

23 January 2015

Get that Summer Glow in the Winter


We can rock glowy and healthy looking skin all year round. That healthy/ glowy look is much more easier to achieve in the Summer time whit the help of the Sun, but how can we achieve that in the Winter aswell? Just a couple of easy steps to follow, and you can have that same effect.

18 January 2015

Changes in my makeup routine that make the difference

You know that period when you just have a "thing" for a couple of products, or routine and you just can't seem to change things up a little bit? Well that happens to me all the time. I have been using the same eyeshadow look for days in a row, same blush for seriously two weeks, same lip combo...because it was a look or routine that just suited my mood, or time schedule.

17 January 2015

Let's talk about Primers


    Primers are really one of those types of products that you can choose to wear it or not. It is really up to you, your needs and preferences. Allthough,  I beleive some types of primers can really represent the KEY step to a flawless, long lasting makeup. 

11 January 2015

Loreal Color Riche L'Ombre Pure eyeshadows

Oh how I love these eyeshadows! These are out on the market for a while now but I never seemed to be curious about them for some reason! How late to the game I am ! They are the bomb eyeshadows when it comes to drugstore formulas, and they exceed even some higher end ones aswell.

10 January 2015

Ren Radiance Skincare Regim

I would like to call myself pretty  lucky because I was still awake when I received the mail from SpaceNK that their SALE  just started. I always wanted to try out some Ren skincare products especially this radiance renewal mask. So when I spotted this set without thinking too much I added it into my shopping basket and checked out. Good that I did, because it was sold out in the next morning.

03 January 2015

Products I used up recently

I am proud of myself : I used up two foundations , skin care products, a mascara,nail polishes,  quite a lot of products. But that just means one thing, with the New Year ahead of us, new brands comming out, new collections and technologies, I can make a wishlist without feeling guilty: I have some shopping to do! Well that is exciting!

Easy eye look using the Urban Decay Naked 1

I promissed a face of the day using the Urban Decay Naked 1 palette. I chose to use this palette because I think that even if you don't own this exact palette, the shades are so easy to replace. Basically everybody has a gold, a deep brown and a black eyeshadow. So lets get started with the steps.

29 December 2014

December Favorites

December was all about relaxing and just spending some extra time at home. The fact that the weather became significantly colder, could be the main the reason for this. I enjoyed taking long baths, doing my nails, and taking extra care of my skin.

"In between" skincare products

Belated Merry Christmas to all of you reading this right now! I hope you had an amazing time with your family and friends! Wish you all happiness and healthiness!

Today I wanted to share some thoughts of the products I like to call "in between" skin care items. These are the extras we can incorporate into our skincare routine. These products are not stend alone products, they ment to complete a routine, basically an extra skin care step if you choose to have one.

Two in one blush and illuminator: Sleek Rose Gold



I am sure you already heard about the comparison between the Sleek blush inRosegold and the Nars Orgasm blush.  I don't own the Nars one, so I can't give my thoughts on that, but I think this Sleek blush worth mentioning.

07 December 2014

Daily makeup organization


I am a very organized person, at least I try my best to be one. So when I started working a few months ago, and I had only 10 minutes to get ready in the morning and do my makeup it was a real struggle for me to leave my makeup table clean and not in a messy state.

06 December 2014

Thoughts on my setting powders


Using a setting powder, especially one that controls the oils break thru is a must step for me. I have combination to oily skin.Though I use foundations that are targeted for my oily skintype, that solely is not enough to get me thru a minimum of 12 hour wear of makeup, so I do need the help of setting powders.

Gym bag beauty essentials

When going to the gym you need to have some basic beauty products in your bag. And I am not talking about foundation and mascara, I am talking about the essentials that everybody needs to have in their gym bag.

November 5 Favorites

I didn't do a post with my October favorites just because I didn't have enough products to mention, but for the month of November I found some amazing items that truly stand out and they deffinitely worth mentioning. My top 5 favorites are:

10 Awesome Gift idea for Christmas

With the end of November already here, I would advise everybody to start thinking about the presents they want to get for their loved ones. We tend to leave things at the last minute and then we rush getting the presents for everybody. But there is still enough time and I hope my ideas will help some of you out.

19 November 2014

Biotin

I started using Biotin two years ago. (By using I mean that once a year I buy a jar that contains 90caps that is enough for 3 months, 1 cap per day is enough) I heard many people saying that this will help your hair grow faster and longer, it will help your nails be stronger aswell and help your skin be nicer. I heard that it even helps with eczema ( which I do have). So of course, when something promisses longer,  healthier hair, fuller eyelashes and eyebrows,  stronger nails, for a beauty addict is a must to try out.

16 November 2014

Louis Vuitton Mini Pochette

I am not going or trying to review the features of this pochette or give a depth review about its details. I am sure there are tons of people who are better describing designer pieces, so I leave it to them. But I am going to share my thoughts and the practicality of this wonderful little pochette.

12 November 2014

Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque

Face masks are one of those skincare products that can get really expensive, and I don't think they always worth that price tag. Of course I tried some expensive masks, like the Glamglow facemasks, and I did actually enjoy them a lot. But they were only enough for a couple of uses, so I am not sure if I will repurchase them.

5 Minutes Makeup recipe

Makeup recipe for those days when we are in a  hurry,or when we are feeling a little too lazy to take those extra steps and make a whole glammed up look.

08 November 2014

The lip combo as of late

There is no doubt that I will rock this combo all fall/winter long. I am quite anxious when wearing  anything other than a nude lip, just because I feel like I should constantly check if the lipstick is still on my actual lip where it should be and not on my teeth or maybe smeared unevenly around my lip line.

Did you know? Most helpful Beauty Tips

These beauty tips will come in handy when you least expect it, so take a pen and paper and make some notes. I have already shared a couple of these tips previously, but now I gathered them together and decided to make a separate post about them.

This foundation is one of the best ones out of all that I have tried so far,in therms of finish, longevity and color match this is my nr. 1. This is suitable for normal to combination oily skintypes. I am not sure how it would behave on a dry skin.

Tom Ford Velvet Orchid

Can I just say that I have't been this excited for a perfume in a loong time. This is all I want to use since I got it, and that says a lot.

Sneaky little purchases from SpaceNK, Beautybay, Douglas

I made a dent in my bankaccount and I don't regret it. Is that even healthy to say? I love everything I got and theytrully make me feel happy. Do you feel that beauty products make you happy?

Healthy glowy skin, fake lashes and matt lips

I wanted to create for today an effortless looking skin, but we alreeady know that cheating a no makeup makeup look is actually harder that we think, and it requires as much product as we would use for a usual type of look.The end result is a  perfected skin, that is looking healthy, glowy in the right areas and mattyfied where it should be. A well rested looking undereye area, of course no signs of dark circles. Cheating a big eye with some fake lashes, and matt lips to reate some balance.

That highlighting touch to your makeup

Illuminators/highlighters can change the whole makeup. Adding just this little, final touch to your makeup will glam things up a bit and you will be more likely to get some compliments. Of course, you will know why, but others will just wonder what could be your secret to that gorgeous looking makeup.

My haircare routine

I am happy with my haircare routine. I found some products that I really like, and repurchased many times so far, such as the Alterna shampoos and the Morroccanoil. HG for me.

Wei Dragon Blood face lifting pads

I am only 25, so I don't really feel the need to use these types of masks, but since I had it, why not try it and write my thoughts on it. This is quite an expensive product (55£) so If you are thinking of getting it, I hope my review helps you out wether to purchase it or not.

Batiste Dry Shampoo Review

Funny I haven't mentioned them in a blog post earlier, because they are one of my staple beauty products. I love Batiste. I reach for it on a weekly basis,it helps getting me thru the weekdays, when I don't have time or energy to wash my hair and style it.

Perfume collection


 Perfumes  are the most personal beauty item we could own. The perfume that you wear, can trully define your personality and character. A musky deep scent can be worn by a strong women, a unisex perfume is perfect for the modern women, a sweet candy type of perfume is much likely to be worn by a younger person. Also fresh scents are perfect for summer, deep sweet scents for winter or evening time.

Fall makeup

Since everybody is doing some sort of fall makeup look I wanted to do one aswell. In my last post I hauled an eyeshadow pencil from Rimmel London, and after trying it I was impressed by the staying power and the creaminess of it. It is just so easy to use.

In and out beauty products| October

I am currently trying to use up all of my skincare samples so I can buy some full sized products and really have a proper skincare routine. A while back when I made a huge purchase from Spacenk I got a 25 product goodie bag that included a lot of skincare items along with makeup, and since then I have been testing them out.
