Nails Of The Day: Models Own Purple Blue

Marina — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 17:40:24 +0000

I have finally got my hands on one of the nail polishes from the Models Own Beetlejuice collection which is beyond gorgeous!

I really wanted to get four of them but decided to start with one colour and treat myself to others later. Why four and not all five? Emerald Green reminds me of my all time favourite Illamasqua’s Viridian and I don’t need two very similar nail polishes.

So I’ve picked Purple Blue which is such a gorgeous shade and I can’t believe that it was only £5! Models Own describe the shade as a ‘vibrant punch of fuchsia indigo’ and I would agree. It is like a purple based polish with duochrome indigo shimmer, absolutely(...)

Winter Lip Saviours: Burt’s Bees Super Shiny Lip Gloss and Lip Balm. Review and Swatches

admin — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 17:48:21 +0000

Today I want to show you two lip products from Burt’s Bees: Super Shiny Lip Gloss in Zesty Red and Lip Balm in Pomegranate.

I think that their lip balms are already a cult product as so many people love them. I like mine, too. And as you can see, I always take mine with me so everything rubbed off (so I’ve also included a promo picture below).

The pomegranate lip balm makes my lips soft and moisturized, and works brilliant for the cold weather as it is easy to use and it’s not sticky. It also contains: açaí berry,vitamins A, C, D and E and healthy Omega oils which is great. The balm doesn’t really give any colour and you can use it on the go.

As for the Lip Gloss, it is a lovely product for those who want a benefit of a natural lip balm combined with some subtle colour.

I would not recommend applying it without a mirror as you may make a mess (or I manage to).

I find that this gloss is as good as the(...)

Chanel Roses Ultimate de Chanel Makeup Collection for Spring 2012

Marina — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 09:44:25 +0000

Chanel just posted an update on their Facebook page about the new collection which includes four nail polishes and six lip glosses.

I had to check the Chanel website and it turned out that Roses Ultimate de Chanel collection was already out in the US, so let’s hope it will be in Europe soon!

Still can’t decide if I like this promo or not. Probably not.

The new LÈVRES SCINTILLANTES/ GLOSSIMER are: SURPRISE, PLAISIR, VOLUPTÉ, AMOUR, DÉSIR, JALOUSIE

As for Le VERNIS, the shades are:(...)

MeMeMe Cosmetics Bestseller Gift Box in Pink. Review and Swatches

Marina — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 18:21:42 +0000

Remember my post about MeMeMe cosmetics?

I’ve actually got one set for myself to try and let you know my opinion.

I’ve got a Bestseller Gift Box in Pink which includes:

Blush Box in Pink
Light Me Up lipgloss in Illuminate
Long lasting nail gloss in Graceful

All products separately would cost me £20 but they retail for £15.50 in a set which also comes with a beautiful gift box. But http://www.cocktailcosmetics.co.uk/ (they ship Worldwide) actually had the set for £10 so I’ve decided to try it.

To tell the truth, I think this is a brilliant set for the price! It would make an amazing gift and also would recommend this set to anyone who is just starting their makeup collection. I obviously did not need this set but was curious to try the brand.

Blush Box in Pink

It comes in a cardboard packaging with a mirror and a brush. It is a beautiful cool-toned candy pink with shimmer. This is a prefect blush for winter in my opinion as it gives just this beautiful ‘cheeks after a walk on a frosty day’ look. The shimmer is delicate and looks great in this blush. I really like that the colour is buildable. You can get a very subtle effect but can also ‘pack it on’ .

Light Me Up lipgloss in Illuminate

I was actually expecting a different shade based on the promo photo (pale blue based baby pink) but it turned out to be a pinkish nude with tiny silver shimmer instead.

Light Me Up Gloss really(...)
