Bourjois Intense smoky eye shadow palette

Hello lovely readers! I recently bought some new make up products. One of them is this fabulous eye shadow palette by Bourjois. Basically this palette has 2 eyeshadows and 1 liner. You can create an amazing ombre look or intense smoky eye effect. Also you can use every colour separately. 
Liner is in a colour dark brown. You can create a nice winged line with it. Great choice if you are too lazy to use normal eye liner. The first eye shadow is in a colour burgundy brown and the second one is in a pretty rose gold colour. Both eye shadows has glitter. When you apply just the light eye shadow to your eyelid it looks simple, but gorgeous. I thought it would be a nice look for Christmas time.
To create intense smoky look:
1.Apply the rose gold colour on the entire eyelid to illuminate.
2.Intensify with the burgundy brown colour applied to the outer corner of the eye.
3.Use the eye liner to outline the eye contour. 
Inside the palette besides liner and eye shadows there is this tiny double-ended and easy to use brush. On one end it has liner brush and on the other - foam brush.
If you are interested the whole palette is in a shade 61 Rose twiste.
Have you tried this eye shadow palette? What do you think about it?

The Body Shop mini body milk and shower gel

The Body Shop body care products are by far my favourite ones. Every thing in this store has special features. 
What I love about these two products is their amazing coconut scent. You can literally melt from that smell. By the way coconut is my favourite nut. I guess that's why I like this smell. 
You can also use this body milk as a hand cream. It hydrates normal to dry skin and leaves it soft and smooth. Also this mini travel package is comfortable to carry around in your purse.
Basically shower gel has similar features as body milk.
Have you ever tried these products?

Feels like Christmas

Hello lovely readers! Last weekend my mom and I went to the cinema to see The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1. Even though it wasn't as interesting as first two movies, I enjoyed it. I'm not going to spoil details, but it's really worth watching this movie. I've read all three Hunger Games books and I loved them. The third movie is a bit different than a book.
The shopping mall we went to was already decorated for Christmas. I got very excited when I saw this huge Christmas tree and gave my mom my iphone to take a picture. Christmas gives me joy and happiness! Such a beautiful holiday.
Have you seen The Hunger Games Mockingjay - Part 1? Did you like it?

Beanie ~ H&M
Coat ~ Primark
Scarf ~ Zara

Pineapple Mask

Hello! Last week I bought this facial mask for a good price. I think it was about 2 €. I saw it in brochure and I guess what attracted me is that this product is with pineapples. To be honest I have an obsession with this fruit. At first I thought it's too cheap to be good, but I took the risk and bought it. Now I'm pretty happy with it.
This enzyme - activated moisturising mask revitalizes radiant skin. Pineapple extract and exfoliating AHAs clear away dulling skin cells. Renews and refreshes skin. This product is perfect for every skin type.
How to use it: Apply face mask to face and neck and leave for 5-10 minutes. After that, rinse with warm water. You can use this mask two times a week, but if you prefer you can use it often. It doesn't irritate and leave your skin dry.
I like this product because of it's light texture, nice features and amazing scent. 
Have you ever tried it? What is your opinion about it?

Autumn favourites

Hello lovely readers! Today we had our first snow. I kind of feel that the winter came despite the fact the snow didn't stay. To remember autumn I thought why not to write top things I liked during that time of a year. 
Autumn is such a nice season when you can wear cozy sweaters and listen to Sweater Weather song (my all time favourite song, especially when it's autumn). 
This autumn was different. Many times I wore this nice checked blouse with peter pan collar. Peter pan collars are a bit old-fashioned, but they look adorable and I like clothes with them. I bought it from Primark for 9 €.
Next thing I've been loving is my checked scarf. I have it for 2 years now and I'm still in love with it. This scarf is like a big warm blanket and I absolutely love the pattern. I bought it from Zara, but I don't remember the price.
Let's not forget about shoes. When I was in Primark I accidentally saw these creepers shoes only for 5 €. I grabbed then and thought why not to try wearing these strange shoes. They looked a bit strange to me, but I ended up liking them.
Last but not least is the hat. I wanted this kind of hat so bad, that my mom made me a surprise and bought it from H&M. The hat is chic, but simple.
These are things I've been loving this autumn.
  
What you've been loving this Autumn?

60's beauty and fashion


Hey lovely readers! Time to time I like to look through this book by Jim Heimann. I'm telling you it's perfection. I don't know why, but I really admire this book. It gives me inspiration. Sometimes I just can't imagine how fashion developed and how these trends keep coming back. For example, baseball shirts, dresses and sweaters were popular in 60s and recently this trend came back. It's just so fascinating for me. 
Basically this book is filled with different 60s fashion and beauty ads. It's not a regular book. It reminds me of magazine. So when I'm in need of inspiration I take this book and read few pages.
I like how Maybelline is presented here: "Maybelline specializes exclusively in everything to make eyes beautiful". Fun fact: in 60s there was solid mascara, cream mascara and magic mascara(our regular one). I guess solid and cream mascara was used by my grandmother when she was young.
Highly recommend this book for fashion and beauty lovers. Also if you're crazy about magazines this book is for you!

Have you read this book? What is your opinion about it?

Nail care

Hello lovely readers. I wanted to share with you about my nail care. I don't spend a lot of time taking care of my nails. When I go to school I don't use bright colours. But still I want my nails to look nice. I usually paint my nails with base coat nail polish or some kind of nail stronger. Recently I found this nice nail polish with gel effect. It's not a gel polish, but it gives that look. I don't recommend doing real gel nails. That special nail polish can really damage your nails.  
My favourite nail stronger is "Nail Nurse" by Rimmel. Perfect choice if you want to recover your damaged nails. It strengthens and protects nails. Also gives natural pink colour. Painted nails dry very quickly. 
My second favourite stronger is by Nail System. It is also a great nail product. But this one doesn't have a colour. So I like "Nail Nurse" better.
Top coat nail polish by IBI is on a pricey side, but quality pays off. It gives this shiny look and dries basically the moment you paint your nails.

Have you tried these products? What do you think?

Cozy evening


Hey lovely readers. If there are some. So I just got back home from drama class. It was a long day. Well, every Monday is like that. One great thing on Mondays is my drama class. It's the place where I can express myself and let my emotions out.
And right now I'm back, all tired and excited to watch new episode of Once Upon A Time. I love watching TV series. I watch tons of them. I get tied up with characters and their lives. 
At the moment I'm obsessed with pomegranates. Such a yummy fruit. So I took pomegranate, made cocoa and found a milk snack with coconut in the fridge. It's nice to get cozy and spend an evening like this. 
I think that's it for today. Thank you for reading. 

How do you like to spend your Monday evenings?


Love,S

L'Oréal Elvital dry oil hair treatment

I've been using this L'Oreal product for a year now. I am not a person with flawless hair. I have weak and very thin hair. Also the end of my hair is pretty damaged. If wasn't this product my hair would've been a disaster. 
This dry oil has a very light texture. It gives your hair a nice shiny look. Hair looks prettier and healthier. This hair treatment makes your hair soft and lovely.
Basically you wash your hair with the shampoo you use and then spray a little bit of this dry oil on your wet hair. But it's also possible to use it on dry hair. It's just then you need to dry your hair with a hair dryer, because you don't want your hair to look oily!
I like the package of this hair product. Spray bottle is very easy to use.

Have you ever tried this product? What do you think about it?

Also, for those who suffer from hair loss or coarse hair there are oil treatments. And the fascinating thing is that you can make them your self! Read the article if you are interested in the natural hair repairing:

Rimmel lipstick by Kate Moss review


 A lot of people are in love with these Rimmel lipsticks, but mainly with red colours. I decided to try this lip product in a different colour. I took this nice peachy colour in shade 32. Amazing colour for those who don't like bright lip colours. I love that this lipstick can stay for a long time. You can eat and basically do anything. Also feels smooth on my lips. Good quality lipstick in great price. I highly recommend to try it. Tell me about it if you do.

 What colours of Rimmel Kate Moss lipsticks you like?

One day in Austria from the morning until evening we went shopping. 
We went to a huge shopping center - SCS. But still the best store is Primark. Good prices and nice clothes.
At Primark they already have Christmas collection. That got me excited, because I love Christmas time. So I bought a fun Christmas sweater and two scented candles to get a little bit christmasy.

What are your latest shoppings? Maybe you recently bought something in these shops too?


Love, S
