May 2012 Yays and Nays


Technic Vintage Lip Balm Margarita





It's green. It smells really weird. And it's really green. Okay it can be green but it also makes my lips green which isn't cool. It is also really hard (?) like from the freezer but believe me I keep it in my room. No freezers at all. It smooths my lips and it's long lasting but it's green. Seriously ;-) 

Nay.

Lush Double Choc Lip Tint




Okay that's my fault. I didn't notice this little saying 'tint' so I was really shocked when my lips were.. brown. No not greenish this time ;-) Anyway it smells really weird and it dries out my lips. I don't like it. 

Nay.

Sugar and Spice Cherry Feast





I bought it because I thought it looks cute and I'm a girlie girl and I like cute things so it had to be mine. It smells very hmm odd. Maybe that's just me but I can't smell any cherries. The consistency is like hmm jam. It gives a little hint of color but it dries out my lips. 

Totally nay.


Nivea Vitamin Shake Cranberry & Raspberry 




I used to be a big fan of Nivea chopsticks in elementary school. This one smells delicious. I would totally eat it if I could. It doesn't dry out my lips but doesn't moisturize them as well. I just like to use it because of the smell. I usually use it under my lipsticks. 

Yay.

Maybelline Baby Lips 05 Quenched



It smells like lemons. I like lemons so I have to like it. It isn't a perfect chopstick. It is a great moisturizer for my lips but it doesn't last long on my lips but who cares because it smells amazing! I've already had broken it ;-) but I'm in love with it!

Yay.

Stop cracking up from Anatomicals




I don't like it because it smells so chemical. It's too wet for me and I just don't like this consistency.

Nay.

Snog me senseless from Anatomicals




I bought this one because I like minty things but it is just too minty. Not in the good way. Seriously I can't stand it on my lips. 

Nay.


Lush Lip Scrub




It is my favorite lip scrub. It is really good and smells amazing. And you can eat it ;-)

Yay.

Flintige Spray-On Body Moisturising Mist from Soap & Glory

I bought it because I love Soap & Glory smell (I think I have a serious problems with smells, don't you think?;-))). It's my first body mist ever so I can't compare it with another products but I really like it. It moisturizes my skin and the smell is just so subtle. 



Yay.

White Musk Sun Glow from The Body Shop

I'm really disappointed with this product. It smells nice but I think the smell is too heavy. I mean it say it is infused with the intensely sensual fragrance but for my it's just too much. Okay for perfumes but I can't accept it in body balms. 
Nay.



Nay.

 Beautifying Oil Satsuma from The Body Shop



I'm a huge fan of dry oils. I always have been :-) I bought Satsuma and I loooooove it! It smells so good and it works very well. I usually use it on my face (at night) and on my hair as well. I might have to buy another oils from this collection :-)

Yay!

Hand Hood Hydrating Hand Cream from Soap & Glory



It's my current favorite hand cream! It softens my hands and smells amazing.

Yay!

My current favorite lipstick & lip gloss

Dior Eyeshadows Palette 841 Garden Edition 5 Couleurs


Hello everyone :-)


Today I will be showing you my eyeshadows palette 5 couleurs Garden Edition from Dior :-)




Actually this is my first palette from Dior and I was really excited about it :-)
I love these colors - one purple eyeshadows, 3 shades of pink (actually one of them is pink-lilac) and one grey eyeshadows. This is my favorite combination of colors :-)




I always appreciate little mirrors because it's an easy way to check your make up when you are out and you don't have to carry with you another box with mirror :-)

So.. I've heard a lot of Dior eyeshadows.. they have both fans and haters :-) I really like them but they aren't so pigmented as I've been expecting. They are long-lasting. I was worried because I don't like how shimmery eyeshadows just smudge and fall down to your cheek on your face and you look like a Christmas tree ;-) but these are very good.

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter 085 Sugar Plum


It's finally mine! :-) My lipstick is in color 085 Sugar Plum and it's very pigmented.


It's so hard to describe this shade. It's actually a combo of pink and plum/purplish.. It looks like a very dark color but in my opinion on my lips it looks very good. Actually I did a little research and in this collection you can find both very pigmented and non-pigmented as well. The very important thing - they are available in so many shades! It was so hard to pick just one :-) 

It's a thick lipstick. Actually it was a weird feeling while I was spreading it around my lips but I thought maybe it's because this lip butter inside of it :-) 
I like this shape - you don't need a lip liner to contour your lips even if you are currently using a dark shade like me. 



 Does it dry out my lips? Not at all.  Does it moisturize my lips? Maybe a little. 

The only defect I found it's the fact that it isn't long-lasting. It lasts on my lips about 2 hours (without drinking and eating). I've been wearing it on my lips everyday since I bought it and I really like it.

I will definitely buy an another shade because I also want to try these non-pigmented colors.

Lancome Rouge In Love #351B Rose Des Soupirants

Hello everyone :-)

Today I want to show you my newest lipstick - it's Rouge In Love from Lancome. I've never used Lancome lip products before so I was really excited to try it out!

Here's the packaging. Isn't it absolutely amazing?








And here's the color. As you know I'm not a fan of red color so this lipstick isn't red but I know it looks kind of red in this picture. I would describe it as pink - reddish :-) It is such a beautiful shade and I think it's perfect for everyday wearing.

It smells really nice. I was kind of surprised because most of lipsticks just smell like lipstick lol and this one smells like fruit-candy lipstick which is awesome. I know it isn't the most important fact but I personally like nice lipstick scents. 

This lipstick is very smooth, creamy and doesn't dry out my lips. It lasts on lips like 3-4 hours and it doesn't tend to smudge or spread out of my lips. Highly recommended! :-)
