Pictures of the Week #3

 I went to Müller and all Alessandro nail polishes were 50% off, so of course I had to buy something :D
I also bought Catrice - Dance in Gion.

I finally got what I wanted from Essence - Hugs and Kisses. Definitely the cutest limited edition from Essence :)

I love orchids, I have dozens of them in my apartment. I think they are the most beautiful flowers :)

My sister-in-law surprised me the other day  and bought me these cute unique earrings. Love them <3

Another great bargain of this week.
H&M + 2 bracelets + 1 shirt + 1 pullover = 12€ :D

Taya talked about in her post that Bioderma Slovenia is giving free samples so I got mine too. :)

Valentine nails. :)
Opi - Sparrow me the Drama and Konad image plate.











Hope you had a great week! <3

Haul + Swatch (Max Factor - Intense Plum)

Hello!
I bought a few things today and I decided to share it with you :)

 

I had an eye on Max factor set for a while now and I finally bought it. The set costs only 9,59€ and contains: * 3 mini glosfinity nail polishes (Intense Plum, Hot Pink, Cloudy Blue)

                                * 2000 Calorie mascara

                                * Mini kohl pencil (020 black)

                                * Creme Puff (05 translucent)

                                * 1 sample of Max factor face finity all day flawless foundation (50 natural)

 

I think this set is awesome. It has amazing stuff in it. I already tried one nail polish and mascara and so far I like it. I don't like the smell of compact powder, but I can't say anything else, because I haven't tried it yet.

 

Other things: * Essence - Jacob's Protection (Breaking dawn part 2 LE)

                      * Essence - Alice Had a Vision - Again (Breaking dawn part 2 LE)

                      * Essence - A Piece of Forever pigment (Breaking dawn part 2 LE)

                      * Essence - Berry me Home (Home Sweet Home LE)

                      * Depend - 6004 (Magnetic)

Like I said, I already tried one nail polish from Max Factor set and here it is:

 

 (Max Factor - Intense Plum)

 
 I think it's a beautiful colour, I used 2 coats, the application was easy. The only thing that I didn't like is the handle or the stick of the brush (don't know how to explain it). It's so small that it was very hard to paint my nails normally. Here is a picture of three small nail polishes so that you can see the comparison:
From left to right: Depend, Max Factor, Essence

 

Isn't it small? Do you have any mini Max Factor nail polishes? Do you have the same problems?

 

Do me a favour and tell me which product would you like to see swatched first ;)

 

Thank you for stopping by!

Catrice - George Blueney

Hello!
I'm back. I was in Terme 3000 for the past few days, enjoying the last days before the college starts.
And of course I went to Müller in Murska Sobota, where I bought a few things:

Deborah Milano - Burlesque Red, Essence - Do you Speak Love?, Catrice - George Blueney, Catrice -Casablanca Hightlight's (eyebrow lifter).

 

 

Today I would like to show you this blue beauty from Catrice. It's from their new sortiment and it's called George Blueney. It's a beautiful metallic dark blue color with light blue shimmer in it.

Too bad there's no sun today, because I would love to see this blue shimmer sparkling in the sun :)

 

My pinky wants to go another way :D

2 coats, without top coat.

 

Catrice once again provided beautiful new colors and I can't wait to try some of them :)

 

 

 



Haul + Swatches (Essence pigments)

I went to Beauty world yesterday and bought a few things from Essence new sortiment.

From left to right:
Essence - Colour arts nail base (1,69€),
Essence - I'm Bluetiful, Free hugs, Ballerina's charm, Oh my glitter! (1,69€),
Essence - Kiss Care Love lipbalm (1,39€),
Essence - Colour arts mixing jars (1,39€),
Essence - Colour arts eye base (1,99€),
Essence pigments - Fairy dust, Cotton candy, Broadway starlet (2,69€)

 

 

Today I would like to show you swatches that I made with Essence pigments.

 

 

 

I swatched them on my hand without and with Colour arts eye base.

 

10 - fairy dust is a pearly white pigment with small glitter.

This one is my favourite.

Left - without base

Right - with base

11 - cotton candy is a pearly light pink pigment.

Left - without base

Right - with base



 

 04 - broadway starlet is a multicolored glitter, but I don't think that I will be using it on my eyes, because I don't like sparkly things on my face.

 

Then I swatched them on my nails with Colour arts nail base:

 

On index and middle finger - 11 - cotton candy (2coats)

On ring and pinky finger - 10 - fairy dust (2 coats)

 

 

I was quite dissapointed with those two pigments. As you can see they didn't cover my nails even.

There's just too much mess with them I don't think that I will be using them for my nails.

 

But.. I love 04 - broadway starlet (2 coats)! It looks awsome :D it's such a shame that there's no sun today (that's why I didn't bother putting it on all my nails, I want to save that for sunny days :D)

 

To sum up I'm quite satisfied with them. Fairy dust and Cotton candy will probably only be used on my eyes, can't wait to try them, so that I can see if they will last long on my eyelids. And Broadway starlet will probably only be used on my nails, but that's okay, because I don't have that kind of a nail polish in my collection.

 

* I didn't get lip base, because I'm not wearing lipsticks that often.

 

 

Did you get any pigments? How did you like them?

Are you using them on your nails, eyes or both?

 



 

Small Beauty Haul + Inspiration Quote

I went to a drugstore today, because I needed some things and here is what I got:

Garnier Fructis style haarspray (Needed a new one.)

Aok regulierendes waschgel mit tee & ginseng-extrakt (I heard some good things about this one, so I decided to give it a try.)

Dusch Das - Wild cherry (I love Dusch Das shampoos, they are cheap and they smell good.)

Lavazon Sonnen spray (I decided to try something cheaper this year and it's also paraben free.)

Revlon Colorstay (my favourite foundation.)

Catrice - Defining duo blush Peach Sorbet (Those blushes will be discounted, so they are only 1,99€.)

Catrice - Heavy Metallilac (It was always sold out, but not today! Yaay!)

Essence - Stampy designs 2x (are those two plates new? I'm not quite sure, but I didn't see them the last time I was there.)



Because I am feeling down for a past few days (bad news just keep coming) I would like to share with you my favourite inspiration quote. I saw it a while ago in one of JulieG videos on youtube and I loved it. I just need something like that in my room so that I can look at it whenever I'm not in a good mood to cheer me up.

I hope you're all having a wonderful day!
