Tangle Teezer hair brush

Hello lovelies! I'm truly sorry that I haven't been blogging. I was busy with homework, exams and other school stuff. However don't worry I still keep shopping and trying new things. As for this hair brush, it's not exactly an innovation. Most of the people have it now. Though, for me it's new. I heard so many great things about Tangle Teezers that I tempted to buy and try it myself. Right now, I wouldn't change this hair brush to anything. I have never had a brush like this one before. It was a bit pricey about 11 €, but it's worth it every penny.

What I love about this brush that it never plucks my hair out. I have this problem with my hair that I often get tangles. My other brushes always plucked my hair and it hurt so badly. This one is like magic to me! It also makes my hair look shiny and silky smooth. Hair brush is ideal for both dry and wet hair. It also gives a great massage to my head! 

One of the reasons why I bought this brush is because of it's size. It's so handy and comfortable to carry around. Great for traveling and using everyday. All hair brushes I own are big and they take up a lot of space in my purse so I don't like taking hair brush with me. But when I got this beauty I want to carry it with me everywhere.

The design of a brush is so chic and stunning. Love this combination of purple and neon pink. Though, if you're not into this colour, there are different others to choose from. 

All in all this Tangle Teezer hair brush is something really special. I highly recommend it to everyone who has thin hair like me and suffer from tangles. It's a lifesaver!

W7 'In The Buff' eye colour palette

Hello lovelies! Sorry for not being active these past few weeks. I wanted to blog so badly, but I just couldn't find the right time. So recently I bought this so called Naked palette dupe. Sadly, I haven't tried Naked one, because it is too expensive for me. I am not in a place to compare them, but I think that this one is a great replacement. There are 4 types of palettes. I took natural nudes 'IN THE BUFF'. I thought I could use it for everyday natural look when I go to school and bright colours are not appropriate. Although, eye shadow palette has few dark colours so you can easily make a smoky and bright eye look. 

Basically an eye shadow  palette contains of 12 nude colours. 9 of them are glittery and only 3 matte. It's a bit disappointing because most of the time I like to use matte colours. However, I fell in love with these shiny ones. My favourite colour from the whole palette is the 4 th in the shade called 'Dust'. It's a brown - gold  colour with glitter.

Inside the palette besides eye shadows there is a double - ended brush.  But the brush is kind of crappy. I use my one instead.

Packaging of a palette looks simple, but nice. I like that the box is made of metal, though it is not very handy to carry around in your purse.

W7 palette is in a pretty great quality and on a bargain. If your budget doesn't allow you to but Naked, you should definitely get this one. You won't be disappointed at all.

Have you ever tried this palette? Maybe you prefer Naked palette?

I Love... Mango&Papaya body butter

Hola! This is my second time trying I Love body butter, except now I got it in other scent. My mum gave me this on Valentine's day. I was so excited to give a sniff on this product. It was literally magical... I mean, I can't even properly describe this scent. It reminds me of summer and jungle somehow. Mango and papaya scents combine perfectly. The smell is so good that I wish I could taste it.

After every shower in the morning I apply this body butter with my fingertips all over my body.

Coconut Oil and Shea Butter leave your skin feeling nourished and silky soft. 

Packaging is the same as The Body Shop body butters. Body butter is in 200 ml size round plastic box. Not really convenient to carry or travel with. It's a product to have at home. 

What I love about these products is that they are affordable and quality is not so bad either. Maybe they are not as natural as The Body Shop products, but still it's a great alternative.

I highly recommend this product to you. Give it a try!

Have you ever tried this body butter? What is your opinion about it?

Love,S

Is it worth buying Timberland boots? + How to clean them

Hello there! I am that kind of person who wears out shoes quickly. It's almost a one season thing for me. Though, I have few pairs of shoes which are indestructible. One of them is Timberland shoes. I have been wearing these for 3 years now. I think I have hit my shoe wearing record. 

I think many of you know these shoes. They were pretty popular and maybe they still are. I can't say much. Mostly I don't believe that some kind of popular and expensive brand is better than a cheap one, but in this case brand is worth the money. I bought them long time ago just because they seemed nice to me. Now I don't regret paying a lot of money at all. They got me through the worst weather.

You can basically mach them with any outfit. This light brown colour looks simple but a bit odd. Oh, I forgot to mention that these Timberland boots are for winter time and they have white fur inside. Sometimes one shoe tongue flips to outside, but I am like whatever and leave it like that. 

More over is that Timberland boots are the most comfortable shoes ever. I can walk and walk in them no matter what. 

Finally what I love about them is that they are waterproof. That is such a great feature. When it's winter and there are banks of snow outside, you can feel safe, because these shoes will keep your feet dry. Also Timberland boots are lifesavers when it comes to rainy weather. 

However, a year after buying these boots they started making this squeaky sound. Though, this sound wasn't annoying, so I didn't pay any attention. 

Now my Timberland boots look a bit worn out and they make that squeaky sound. 

Despite that I still wear them. Time to time I clean them with different methods. Overall they look pretty great. 

How to clean suede Timberland boots:

1. Use suede cleaning moose. If special cleaner for Timberland boots is too expensive for you, choose a simple suede cleaner.

2. Use dish soap. If suede cleaner does not work for you, take a sponge and on the wet shoe rub dirty areas with dish soap. This is an amazing idea which helped my shoes a lot! It makes them look like new! In my pictures you can see my 3 year old shoes after cleaning them with dish soap.

What is your opinion on Timberland boots? How do you clean them?

Essentials that got me through hectic week

Hola lovely readers! I am so sorry for not blogging this week. I had a busy week filled with lots of tests and homework. I know that the week is not done, but tomorrow we have a day off from school. 

I thought I can share my ways of coping with staying healthy, active and upbeat.

I know that sometimes it can be hard to focus when you are tired and you just want to drop every single work. There are ways to concentrate and cheer yourself up. I've found mine. They may not work for everybody, but I noticed that they help me a lot. If you are not familiar with these methods, maybe you need to discover your own. If you haven't, soon or later you will. 

Now let's get into my essentials:

1.Green Tea

I heard so many great things about green tea, but I recently found out that it wakes you up. Then I started looking for more information about it. So I learned that green tea actually contains caffeine just like coffee, except it's way healthier. Also by drinking this tea you can loose weight and it can lower risk of many diseases. 

When I began drinking green tea in the morning I could immediately notice the effect. It got me alert for the whole morning. I could concentrate better during first lessons. I highly recommend drinking green tea for those who have hard time getting up in the morning. 

2. Water

It's vital to drink water. It has so many benefits. For example, it helps to flush harmful toxins out of your body. I like to drink water as it is healthy and I can loose some weight. Though it also helps me to concentrate. When I am studying late I simply fill up my mason jar with cold water and drink it while learning. It helps me to stay awake and to remember things. 

3. Headphones

When I am studying long hours it becomes boring and tiring. I need few minutes to listen to some music. I put my headphones on and I completely shut down from outside world. It helps me to stay motivated and keeps my good mood. I really like these headphone, because they isolate external sounds and this minimalistic design looks nice.

4. Blanket

Blanket is always my essential when it's winter time, because it gets cold in my home. I literally wrap myself up in it. Blanket makes me feel safe, calms me down. I usually study and even do my homework in it. 

5. Scented candle

This week I was burning this scented candle with apples and cinnamon while studying. I almost finished it. I don't know why, but when I am studying I need my environment to be cozy. That nice smell just keeps me going. 

I hope it was helpful to you.

What are your essentials which help you to get through busy time?

Lancôme Hypnose Mascara review

Hello lovely readers! A few days ago my mum gave this mascara to me so I could give it a try. I think it was included in her Lancôme gift set, but she gave it away to me. I never used a mascara on a pricier side, but now I definitely see the difference. I absolutely loved it after the first try.

Don't be surprised it's not an actual mascara - it's a mini version of it. It contains 2ml of a product. This mascara is in a shade called 'Noir hypnotic'. I think it's the blackest one in this line. What I love about this mascara is that it gives this natural, but long and intense look to my eye lashes. Even with one coat of this product you can get an awesome volume and length. When you apply more coats eye lashes look stunning! The brush looks simple, but it's actually pretty great. No clumping at all.

After a long day my eyes still look nice. It doesn't leave dark circles under my eyes, except when I rub them. When you cry you don't get black rivers running down on your cheeks. Tested this myself.

This mascara doesn't feel heavy and it somehow makes my eye lashes soft. Product's formula contains vitamin B5 and Jojoba oil. I think these two are the most important ingredients from the whole formula. Both of them have a lot of benefits. Jojoba oil is used to create a smooth, non-clumping formula. Vitamin B5 nourishes and lengthens eye lashes.

Also you won't have problems with removing this mascara. You can simply wash your face with cleanser.

I highly recommend this Lancôme product if you are looking for a great quality mascara and your budget allows you to buy it. 

Have you tried this mascara? What mascara you currently use?

Lush Popcorn Lip Scrub review

Hello lovelies! Please don't judge me that I just recently tried this lip scrub by Lush. I know that this product was released on the market about 4 years ago. I heard many great reviews about it and when I came by the store, I thought why not to try this one out. 

There were three scrubs: Minty, Bubblegum and Popcorn. At first I just could't decide which one to pick. All of them looked nice. I sniffed and sniffed each of them. At the end I couldn't smell Minty one and Popcorn smelled better than Bubblegum. So I took Popcorn scrub. 

In my opinion they are a bit overpriced. I paid 7.53 euros for some oils, sugar and salt. You can easily make this yourself. I bought it, because I wanted to see what's so special about this product and my dry chapped lips needed to be taken care of. Although it's expensive, it's a great product if you are too lazy to make it yourself. Especially when it's winter time and lips often become dry. 

Popcorn lip scrub literally smells like fresh caramel popcorn. I love this scent just the way I like popcorns. Lip scrub is a natural handmade product with 7 fresh ingredients: Castor Sugar, Jojoba Oil, Sea Salt, Polenta, Coconut Oil, Popping Candy, Flavour. Scrub's taste is sweet and salty in one! I apply it to my lips, rub them together and lick everything off. Lips feel soft and smooth. They also look better and it's a great way to prepare your lips before using lipstick or any other lip product.
Have you tried this Lush product?
