Review: The Body Shop Warming Mineral Mask
2009-06-11 08:51:00
OMW this is really one of those WOW products for me. I love love love this stuff. The positive effects it has on your skin isnt even the best bit though.The first time i used it i didnt read the instructions and i just put it on my dry face. It was ok and the results were good but it wasnt overly warming for my face which i was disappointed in.Then the next time i actually read the back and it said wet entire face. Ah ok silly me. So i did that and thank goodness i did. It was like a mini sauna for my face. I just cant describe the hot feeling that you get when you apply it. It feels really really good. I am sure it opens up pores and gets rid of all the icky stuff because it always leaves my skin feeling really soft.A little also goes a long way so a tube of that will last you quite a while.What does this beauty actually claim to do???* It Contains kaolin clay and essential oils to draw out impurities and deep cleanse the skin* The Zinc oxide soothes and protects* The Glycerin to s...

Review: Milani Blush
2009-06-10 16:41:00
I received the Milani blush in luminance from ladyb and since i first swatched it on my finger i was in love!Its the perfect soft pink peach and i am sure it will suit almost any skin tone from fair to dark!I also really like the packaging and it even comes with a little brush and mirror at the bottom (very cute!)This is def going to be a summer staple for me and it works great as a highlighter of other blushes or on its own just to give you more of a sun kissed glow.This is the first time i have tried any Milani products and i was really impressed. If anyone knows of any of their other products that are good and where you can buy them where they ship internationally please let me know!xx

Etsy Makeup
2009-06-09 11:52:00
I have always liked Etsy and usually browse through their jewelry, greeting cards and other handmade goodies. Recently though i have been seeing all these handmade makeup stores popping up. Its so great to have an alternative to the mass produced cosmetics.If you haven't checked it out you really should. From what i have seen the colors and options are amazing. Its like a pick-a-mix of make up and yes it almost does look good enough to eat! Yummy!Here are a few stores that caught my eye:Earth Angel MineralsPure Natural MineralsSobeBotanicalsGlittersnifferHeave nly NaturalsIf you have bought makeup from any of these Etsy stores or any other ones please let me know what you thought about it! xx

Weekend News
2009-06-08 09:38:00
I love weekends but who doesn't right! This one was a good mix of work and play with just a dose of perfectness sprinkled over.Friday began as all Fridays do around here with Friday drinks after work. By after work i mean 4 in the afternoon because whats the point of working after 4?? This weeks venue was Portomaso marina where some of our friends moved into new offices and drinks were had on the balcony of their office apartment. It was beer all around and because i was the only girl i thought it would be rude to refuse so i drank the beer and listened to semi censored (apparently for my sake) male conversation. If thats what censored sounds like then what the hell is uncensored? Not that i mind in the slightest...Later that night we went to a charity event for kids with cancer. It was for a good cause and we had a good time and i thought i maybe want to start a cats without homes fund. (yes i did) There was free wine and a goodie bag full of creams and 40% off cut and blow dry vo...

Prestige Glam Tan Bronzer
2009-06-05 09:06:00
In recent months i have read about this bronzer in quite a few blogs and everytime a saw a post and all the good things they said about it i searched the internet for it but the shipping was either to expensive or they didnt ship to Malta or something else that prevented me from buying it.Much to my delight Ladyb was having a giveaway and one of the prizes was the glam tan bronzer and a milani blush. I was so excited when i received it and of course it is just in time for summer and i was desperately seeking a new bronzer.I love my bronzers to have a golden shimmer to them rather than a darker bronzer finish as i think it compliments my tan and skin tone more and that is exactly what this lovely bronzer is. A golden dream!Its very pigmented so you have to be careful when applying but i just use my kabuki brush and buf it in nicely and voila you have a summer ready greek goddess glow!I think this will last me quite a while but i am already stressing about what i will do when its fini...

Today's look of the day photo's were taken at my boyfriends work after we went for a swim. I took advantage of all the sunlight that we dont get in the afternoon but i couldnt stop frowning when taking the pics hence the upset look! lolI just did the purple and gold look with my pro palette. Almost all of my foundation had come off (it was boiling at the beach) and my hair is a mess! hehe

Superficial Gossip

I couldnt help laughing at this photo. Not because of the rubbing going on between Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian (come on we all do that when dancing! ok maybe just me...) but the way her sister Khloe is checking them out in the background. Is she astounded, disgusted or does she want some of that for herself?I didnt know keeping the tag on your cap was still gangsta and cool but you know what i really dont want to focus on the cap. Anyone else have a weak spot for white Calvins even if its on Zac Efron...LOL, Joe Jonas doing Single ladies ala Justin timberlake. He still looks cute no? hehe

Homemade Pre Selftan Scrub
2009-06-03 10:57:00
Yesterday i decided its time to start self tanning again as i hate tan lines and i dont really want to bake myself in the sun either.Everyone (hopefully) knows that before you selftan or spraytan or whatever you should exfoliate all over to get rid of dead skin cells that can cause horrible looking patches on your skin.You should also moisturize so that the selftan can sink in and sit nice and evenly on your skin as well as lasting longer.This is what i used to make my pre tan scrub :)I took about 3/4 of a cup of sugar mixed in a few squirts of baby oil and a bit of Palmolives milk and honey shower gel.The sugar is obviously to act as the exfoliator, the baby oil is to moisturize your skin and i use a shower gel to bind it together so its easier to apply.I apply it all over to damp body (use a glove if your hands are sensitive because it does hurt!)Remember to take extra care and time with your elbows and knees as they tend to be drier than the rest of your body and they will absorb...

So i decided to try out my Versace hydrating lipsticks to show all of you. What do you think?The second one looks a lot like the other one i have when i took the pic so i wont put both up.I still feel like they are wayyyyy to bright and dark for me.They glide on really smoothly though and they def stay put without feeling drying at all.I have to say i love the formulation so i will be looking for these in lighter shades.I am also wearing Prestige bronzer in Glam Tan and the Milani Blush in Luminous my two new all time faves!

Uses for Eyeko 3in1 and tinted cream

After watching this video i feel like i was being nasty but i really wasnt trying to! :) Hope you guys dont mind to much. The bad rater has struck again and its so funny because i dont mind if people rate less than one star because maybe they didnt find it super awesome but to rate it only one star and only one person doing it gets on my nerves especially if its all my videos.This means its not about the content (they probably dont even watch them) its just about being a mean horrible human being. If i dont like a vid that much (i always do though) i just wont rate it.Anyway if you girls happen to watch my videos please rate 5 if you think i deserve it though!Thanks a mill!!!xx

They are however testers and say not for resale but its not like i care!The colours are amazing! Super pigmented and they glide on.

ELF custom eye shadow palette
2009-05-28 15:37:00
ELF (eyeslipsface) recently had a free shipping special so i thought i would take advantage of it and try out their custom eye palettes.Basically you can choose which eye shadows (or lip products or blush) you want in your palette and then buy the palette so you only get the colors you really want.I decided to get somewhat matching colors and i was really surprised when i received them.The palette is really good quality and dare i say much better quality than my mac four pan palette! The applicator in the middle is a bit of a waste for me cause i will never use it but otherwise i really like it. It has a huge mirror on the inside and its very sturdy and feels like it will last forever.The eye shadows are a bit powdery but very smooth and silky and although the pigmentation is not amazing i quite like it because it blends really well and you can build up color are leave it for a more subtle effect. Of course i can never compare it to MAC but for 7.50 for 4 colors and a palette its to...
