BOURJOIS Healthy Mix Serum Foundation I think I finally tanned a little, though my neck is still ghostly pale, but I nonetheless started using this foundation on its own, without mixing it with a lighter foundation. I absolutely love it, I have for all these years, no matter the season because it just blends into the skin so well that is looks almost...

Champagne Rain is a champagne gold shade made out of tons of little shimmery bits. I have to say I'm enjoying this shade more than I expected to, as the final effect looks super glam and I always wanted a shade that would look gold, but not so much that it would look a bit orange against my skin tone.

If you're familiar with drinks you can get in Slovenia and possibly neighbouring countries, it...

1. Chocolate Nudes Eyeshadow Palette 010 Choc'Let It Be I was hoping Catrice would make a chocolate palette and I'm glad my wishes came true. I'm a huge fan of the Absolute Matt Eyeshadow Palette, so I have high hopes for this one. For one the shades certainly look gorgeous from the preview.  5.29 € 2.
