Pink & Purple Dots

Hi guys ! Happy Friday. Anyone have any fun weekend plans ? Last year when the Loreal Infallible Mattifying Primer & 24Hour Matte foundation came out , I was running to the closest Deschem to get it to try it out. In December Loreal send me a few more shades, and I decided why not share my thoughts on these two products. For the record - The shade I use daily (11 Vanilla I bought myself as well as the mattifying primer ) My shade I started using after December (when I was tanned for once - Radiant Beige - I did receive as a PR sample ) As you guys know, I love primers. My HUGE collection of primers in my bathroom can definitely confirm that it's one of my most used products daily. If I apply make-up the day for work, I would like it to stay on my face and not slide off. Usually I apply my make-up around 05h30 in the mornings, and usually only take it off once Alex is in bed and fast asleep around 20h00 . And I want to still look as good at night as I did when I applied ...

Hi guys . Happy Monday. Everyone have a great weekend ? As I shared on my Instagram account  HERE  I got a few products from the Limited Edition Essence Happy Girls are Pretty Collection. The whole collection is gorgeous ( and if you are a nail polish lover I would recommend you RUN to pick some up ) . The collection has two eyeliners, a contour set, a blush , two eyeshadow palettes , six  nail polishes, a nail file and two lip colours. I didn't NEED everything , so I only got the products I could see I will be using , and I thought why not share it here as well.  Happiness Is…Following Your Heart Eyeshadow Palette  This palette I can see being the most popular with five gorgeous nude shades. The eye shadows are also super adorable with a ball of yarn and the word "knit" engraved across. The palette is quite steady and clicks closed tightly  , so perfect for travelling (which is why I bought these two palettes ) . Happiness Is…Fol...

Hi guys ! Happy Friday . How has your week been ?? As you know, skincare is one of the most important parts in your skincare routine. It won't help to have the most amazing make-up if you don't care for your skin too. And let's be real - no one wants that.  A little while back I was lucky enough to be sent the Dermaceutic Advanced Cleanser. I was hoping I would love it as much as I did the Foamer 5   , the C25 Cream   and the Mask15  I have reviewed previously.  So first off - lately I have been skin that's constantly breaking out and getting a lot oilier than usual. My first defence is usually using a stronger cleanser , but that starts a vicious cycle of drying my skin out too much, and producing more oil and breaking out a lot more as my skin balance has been messed around a bit.  The Dermaceutic Advanced Cleanser deeply cleanses and helps remove your make-up and excess oils , yet helps keep your skin hydrated. This cleanser gives yo...

 Hi guys ! Happy Saturday . How has your week been ? Hopefully it's been a great week.  Today I'm sharing my Top 5 Red Lip Colours with you. Now I have to be honest - Red isn't really a lip colour choice I go for often. But Red lip colours does have a place in my make-up collection, so today I'm sharing the 5 ones I have been loving lately.  If you missed my Top 5 Purple Lip Colours and want to check them out you can  HERE  or want to have a look at my Top 5 Pink Lip Colours you can click  HERE  . So onto my favourites ...  Essence Mini Sheer Lipbalm I am Charming - The name might suggest this balm is sheer, but it's really quite pigmented . This isn't a bright in your face red , and that's what I love about this colour. This is perfect if you want to try out a red lip but not confident enough to pull off the va-va voom red. This actually lasts a while on me , and again since it's Essence it's super affordable.  Loreal Xtreme Res...

 Hi guys ! Happy Thursday. How has your week been so far ? As promised , today I will be sharing my Top 5 Pink Lip Colours with you guys, This is personally my favourite colour to wear on my lips, be it a bolder pink or a nice neutral girly pink. This was the hardest colour to find only my favourite 5 ... But eventually I settled on these gorgeous 5 lip colours. Essence Liquid Lipstick Colour Party -  I will be swatching some more colours in this range too, but this colour I bought on a whim with a Red Square order I placed early in December, I wanted to try out the colour and was deciding between the pink and nude one. I decided on the pink one and haven't look back since. This lip colour is hydrating, has a GORGEOUS pink colour and makes me feel like a princess when wearing it. The colour does wear off within an hour or two, but I always pop this into my handbag as it provides a gorgeous colour and hydrates my lips - another bonus - It's SUPER budget friendly. R...

Hi guys ! Happy Tuesday . Hope you are having a great week so far.  Today I'm sharing my Top 5 Purple / Berry toned lip colours that I think is perfect for Valentines day. I prefer more of a purple or pink lip personally on myself, but I will be sharing my favourite red lip colours too. So keep an eye out for the other posts later this week.  Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter Gumdrop  I have to admit - on this lipbutter I'm on my 8th tube of this colour since discovering this little magical tube of lipbutter ( I do own a few other colours too ... But this is by far my favourite ) This is a gorgeous light purple colour that does have a sparkle . The colour doesn't last hours but it does last a good 3/4 hours on me, and the best part it's SUPER moisturising. It does fade nice and evenly , which is a huge bonus too especially with eating and drinking. This is one of those colours I have a open one in every bag , all downside though, if it gets super hot , it does me...

Hi guys ! Happy Sunday. I had a few Valentines inspired posts to share with you , so thought it's only appropriate to squeesh in an extra post before the 14th . Catrice was kind enough to send me this duo set from their new Alluring Reds collection to come up with a fun and easy nail art look - I will be sharing another design before Valentines day on my Instagram account  HERE  , so remember to keep a look out for that too. But for the one I'm sharing I wanted to keep it plain and simple and wearable . I prefer a simple accent nail nail art for everyday wear , and not too over the top design on my nails - so for me it's the perfect combo. The colour I was send was the combo 03 Pleasure of Temptation .  This is also a duo polish with one silver polish , and a jelly looking polish that goes with it. In the bottle the colour looked like a deep red - which I was a little scared off as I'm not really a fan of red nail polish - personally it makes me feel too grown u...

Hi guys ! Happy Thursday. Hope you have been having a great week, mine was and is busy, but next week I'll be back to my three posts a week schedule. Yeah ! Today I'm sharing three swatches of the L'oreal Infallible Glam Summer Splash Plexi Nail Polishes with you as well as my thoughts on these polishes. These are actually the first dual sided nail polishes that was easy to use . usually you can't remove the bottle completely and get stuck with holding the heavy middle part to paint your nails. The L'oreal one has the option to remove both sides, making it SUPER easy to use then.  The dual sided wand comes with a metallic silver side (as shown in a photo below on it's own ) and a jelly looking colour side. The idea is to get bold metallic nails that last.  I really like the silver on it's own too ... It's such a gorgeous colour. I would recommend giving the silver colour a good 2 -3 minutes to dry down before you start applying the "j...
