May Favourites

Victoria's Secret Love Spell fragrance mist I like wearing this body spray on warmer days, because even though it's sweet and fruity, there is some freshness to the scent. It's smells like a sweet, but refreshing frizzy soda. It doesn't last long, however, I don't mind reapplying it (besides, the bottle is huge). It does last longer if I layer it over the...

Bourjois 1 Seconde Gel 22 In the Navy

I already posted a swatch of 22 Turquoise Block here and because I love the quality of these 1 seconde gel nail polishes, I got another colour, 22 In the Navy, which is a dark cobalt blue. Again, as with the Turquoise Block, the formula is very opaque, I can get away with one coat and I add another on nails where the application looks...

Review: Kérastase Nutritive

Prepare for a long and picture heavy post. It's been more than a month since I got these goodies and after some thorough testing, I'm finally feeling comfortable writing a review. Originally, I was going to do a separate post for each, however, I feel the need to put them all in one for a good reason. The thing is that individually these...

Product of the Week #11

Coralista is my go-to blush and I tend to neglect the rest that I own at lot, but this week decided to dust off my (almost) forgotten Lancome Blush Subtil in Miel Glace and start using it again. If you only knew how long this has been hiding in my make up storage. It was actually my second blush, the first one being...

Bourjois 1 Seconde Gel 22 Turquoise Block

I just love this colour!  22 Turquoise Block is a blue-green shade that is more green. It looks completely green is some lights and in some it looks more blue. The formula is really opaque, I applied just one coat on most nails in the picture and I added one more where the application was uneven. The brush is wide, which for me...

Ardell Demi Wispies

Ardell's Demi Wispies are some of the most popular falsies, at least according to reviews MUA. I completely understand the hype. These are so lovely! And pretty! I've never actually worn false strip lashes before, only individual ones from Misslyn, which were too short for me (number 2), so I've only worn them to make my lashes look thicker. I've tried the Essence ones for...

Bionature Nail Polishes

Bionature has a line of nail polishes that are without the big 3, so formaldehyde, toluene and DBP. I was sent the 3-in-1 nail polish, which can be used as a base and a top coat, and a nail polish in the shade Pearly Cobalt Blue 951. Bionature ima linijo lakov na nohte, ki nimajo formaldehida, toluena in DBP-ja. Sama z laki z...

Essence Guerilla Gardening TE Lip Cream Floral Glam

Floral Glam is one of the two lip creams from the Guerilla Gardening TE (the other colour is Mission Flower and a fellow blogger Taya posted her swatches of that shade here). I already did my review on lip creams here and because it's the same formula, it's pointless to write it all over again (I'm lazy I know), but I'll rather focus...

Product of the Week #10

I've liked Fame by Lady Gaga fragrance since I first tested it, but I only got it recently because it had a nice discount in Müller. I've been really enjoying wearing since I got it, mostly because it has honey in it, loads of it and I love honey. However, this is not a full-on honey scent, but rather a lovely honey-floral fragrance with a...

Majolica Majorca Lash Expander Frame Plus

I have very stubborn lashes that refuse to stay curled unless I use a good waterproof mascara. So far I have rarely been truly impressed by any, a notable exception being Helena Rubinstein Lash Queen Feline Black waterproof, which costs an eye-watering 30 €, but it sure holds the curl all day and makes your lashes look amazing. I have heard that Japanese mascaras hold curl very...
