Storage Tips: Easy and Nice Way To Store Your Accessories

Hey Everyone!

Today I decided I am going to talk about a really cute and easy way to store your jewelry!

One thing is this really nice and cute box that I got as a gift, so I cannot actually tell you where you can go and find one similar, but I am sure you can find it anywhere. It has a very good size so you will fit a lot of accessories in there. What I also like about this box is the pattern and also the little rose that you will see in the pictures.










The second thing that I think it's really cute is this mannequin. It has the shape of the women and instead of her head they attached hangers. She has a very nice dress with the colors brown and blue. It also has hangers to the side so you can put any accessories such as necklaces, rings and earrings over there.



I hope you enjoyed,

Makeup: Lacoste Lipstick for Spring

Hey Everyone!

First of all, before I tell you anything about this product I just want to tell you that the shade of this lipstick is not the only shade you are going to find in spring. The color looks very dark on the actual lipstick, but the swatch of the lipstick is exactly how it is going to appear on your lips.
The lipstick is very small in size which makes it better for you to carry it in your purse or in your makeup bag. It takes less space.
The packaging is pink with a few marks of silver and the brand name Lacoste, in the front.
As I told you at the beginning of this blogpost, the lipstick looks extremely dark and very ugly, in my opinion. I would wear this in winter but in spring, definitely not.
On my hand, you can see the swatch. As I told you, when you apply the lipstick, the color fades off and it is very light and perfect for spring, in my opinion. It looks nothing compared to the actual lipstick, but don't get tricked by that and go ahead and swatch the lipstick on your hand to see the color better.


The number of the lipstick is 229 and the lipstick is called Flamboyant.

Makeup: The Perfect Blush for Spring

Hey Everyone!

I know that when it comes to makeup, the blush that we are using is very important also. Today I am going to give you an idea for a perfect blush that you can use in spring or in summer. It has 4 different colors that are perfect for spring.
The blush is from the brand named Cargo. You can find this brand at a Sephora store or online.





The blush is called "Coral Beach" and it is in number 1.

I hope you find this blog interesting and also learn something from it,

LUSH: How To Get Nice And Volumimous Hair Using LUSH Products

Hey Everyone!

Today I am going to tell you how you can get nice and voluminous hair with some LUSH products. You can get these products here.

To get very nice and voluminous hair you need to use volumizing products. LUSH has a solid shampoo called BIG that is supposed to leave your hair with a lot of volume after you use it. 

 
It takes a few days to get used to it because inside there are small particles of salt.




To me, it smells like fresh and clean laundry. :) It smells like lavender and lime. Maybe not the best smell in the world, but I can deal with it.

To go with it, you need a conditioner. The conditioner that I am using and gives my hair a lot of volume, also smelling incredibly nice is called AMERICAN CREAM Conditioner.

 
It smells like vanilla, honey, strawberries and a little scent of oranges. It is my favorite conditioner scent that I own.

So there you have it! With just two products, you can have a nice, soft and voluminous hair!

All of the photos were taken by me. The products are mine.

Makeup: MAC's Viva Glam Gaga Lipstick

Hey Everyone!

Today I am going to talk to you about the Viva Glam Gaga Lipstick that MAC has to offer. It is, though, limited edition so if you want your hands on this amazing lipstick be sure to get it soon!
The lipstick is called GAGA because of the well known celebrity Lady GaGa. I think it is a very nice idea and I am sure that the fans of Lady GaGa will go and buy this lipstick for sure. 



The packaging of the lipstick is a little bit different than your normal MAC lipstick. It has the brand name written in red and also, when you open your lipstick you will see another shade of red, which you don't find in another lipsticks by MAC. Besides the brand name on the lipstick, you can see Lady GaGa's signature which I though was a very nice idea. The color of the lipstick is a very bright shade of pink. A dupe for this lipstick would be: Angel or Hue lipticks by MAC.

I really hope you enjoyed this review!

Lush Review: Helping Hands Hand Cream

Hey Everyone!

Today I am going to tell you a review about the Helping Hands Hand Cream by LUSH. Here are a few photos before I start writing.





First of all, the smell and the color. This hand cream smells like lavender and coconut. It has a very pink color. When you apply it, it is very moisturizing and very soothing to your skin. The smell is a little bit funny, but it does not bother me at all. If you have dry hands pretty much all the time and you want something that will make them soft and smooth, I recommend you taking this. You can buy it here. Just pick your country and they will ship it to you right away.

LUSH describes this as:

Nurses are known to have helping hands, and since they often end up with dry skin from washing them all day, we made this to help get those mitts back into shape. Nourishing shea butter is easily absorbed and contains vitamin A to help maintain moisturized and healthy skin. Chamomile water, lavender and honey soothe and let off a calming fragrance that inspires memories of youth when hands were soft and taken for granted. Apply this cream before bed and you'll see the days of soft skin again.

Movie Review: Alice In Wonderland

Hey Everyone!

I finally saw Alice In Wonderland and I wanted to do a movie review for you! 

First of all, the actors were great. The acting was amazing, even though there were some very small exceptions. The makeup for the actors were very nice also. The 3 top ones that I liked were: The Mad Hatter, White Queen and Alice. The special effects of the movie were also directed amazing since the actors filmed with a green screen the whole entire movie.

Something I didn't like were some bits of the movie were a little bit boring and just not fun and interesting to watch.

I think that I will buy it on DVD and see if I can understand it better then.

I give this movie 4/5.

XOXO

LUSH Review: Sakura Bath Bomb

Hey Everyone!

Today I am going to do a LUSH Review for a bath bomb called Sakura.


LUSH describes this as:

In Japanese, Sakura means Cherry Blossom, the gorgeous white and pink flowers that bloom for just a brief period of time in the Spring. Relax into the warm water as the pretty pink and blue sea salts dissolve just like your cares. Imagine cherry blossoms softly falling as you inhale the fragrance of jasmine, mimosa and orange blossom (what we think Cherry Blossoms should smell like). You'll feel as beautiful as the transient blossoms.


I have to admit that when I smelled it, it did smell very nice as LUSH says it does. The little blue and red things at the top of the bath bomb where supposed to crack and make sounds when you put the bath bomb in the water. For me, it didn't happen. I thought it will give a very nice color to my bath with sprinkles of red and blue in it.

When I put it in the water, because of it's very BIG size, the bath bomb went at the end of my bath tub and that may be the reason that I didn't see any fizzing in my water. After the bath bomb completely dissolved, it leaved my water a white color. Another words to describe this would be...

When I went into the water, I could feel a very nice and revigorant smell and the water was very moisturizing also. I think that is the only good part.
In the end, if you are more of a simple person and doesn't like anything too extravagant to put in the water, this is the perfect bath bomb for you. Simple and moisturizing.
Would I repurchase this?

If I think about it, I will. It is not my least favorite product from LUSH and what I really liked about it was the very fresh feeling that I had after I finished my bath.

You can purchase this here.

Thanks for reading,

XOXO

Review: Think Pink LUSH Bath Bomb

Hey Everyone!

Today I am going to do a review on a bath bomb from LUSH that I tried a week ago and I wanted to tell you my thoughts and opinions!


Think Pink is a bath bomb which means that if you put it in the water, it will start to fizz up and make your water pink, in this case. Also, the flowers popped out in the water. I loved taking a bath in pink water! The water was extremely moisturizing and it had a very silky feel to it. It has a vanilla and strawberry scent to it and it definitely smells very girly!

Would I purchase this again?
Of course!

Makeup: Urban Decay Primer Potion

Hey Everyone!

Today I am going to talk about a product that I use daily and that I absolutely think it is a great product for each and every one of you!

The Urban Decay Primer Potion also known as UDPP is an eye prep that makes the eyeshadow last longer, the colors more vibrant and NO creasing at all.

All that means:

~If you apply the UDPP before you apply any eyeshadow or pigment, the eyeshadow or pigment that you have applied will last all day long. To be sure of that, I did a test. I woke up in the morning and instead of applying by UDPP I applied the eyeshadow right away. After 30 minutes I looked to see if the color was still staying perfect on my eyes. It did not. The color was everywhere and also in some places there was no color as all.

~If you apply the UDPP the colors will have a natural effect and they will look very pigmented and nice.

Overall, I think that the UDPP is a must have for every girl's collection. You can find them at Sephora or from the Urban Decay website.

My Trip to LUSH

Hey Everyone!

So I finally went to LUSH and got some products. I was really excited when I got there and I really liked the set up and all the things!

I am going to show you some pictures of what I got and tell you a little bit about them!


This is a tonic lotion for your face and eyes. If you will apply this on your face you will feel very relaxed.





   

This is the Snow Fairy shower gel. It has a very nice scent of bubblegum and it is very sweet. It left my hand very smooth after I applied it.




 

This is my lip balm from LUSH. It is called Honey Trap as you may see. I need to say that it doesn't smell very nice. If this was a perfume I would definitely not buy it. Though, it has a scent of honey in it.

 


This is a moisturizer for oily skin. It is very smooth and it blends it on my skin very easy. It smells like lavender. 

 


Then, I got the Think Pink Bath Bomb. If you put this in the water it will dissolve and make the water PINK! Also, the little flowers will pop in the bath tub.


This is the Fresh Farmacy Facial Cleanser. I wash my face everyday with this and it really helps your skin to be more clean and soft.


 



This is from the Valentine's Day collection. It is called Magic Mushroom. It smells like vanilla and strawberry...a DELIGHT!





 


This is called Grease Lighting. If you apply it on your pimple it will heal it and you won't see the pimple anymore!




Well, this was my trip to LUSH! I really hope you enjoyed reading!

Makeup: Lip Conditioners/Lip Balms

      Hey Everyone!









Today I am going to write a blogpost about what lip conditioners are and what are they good for.

The lip conditioner in the picture is from the brand MAC, my favorite makeup company.

If you apply this on your lips, if the color is not very dark and it's more light, you will not see anything on your lips. That doesn't mean that the lip conditioners aren't good for you.

Lip conditioner are very good for your lips because they keep them hydrated and fresh all day long.  Their colors are very smooth and creamy so that means that if you apply them it will go very smoothly.

Usually, I apply my lip conditioner with my finger because if I am in a big hurry and do not take my lipgloss a lip conditioner will work. So I will not use a brush.

Some of my favorite lip conditioners/ lip balms:

MAC Tinted Lip Conditioner SPF 15 - Close for Comfort

I bought it in Austria and it is more of a dark color that tastes very good. It has a candy scent.

LUSH Lip Balm - Honey Trap

I bought it yesterday (13.02.2010) at a LUSH Store. It has a very pale yellow color and it smells like honey.

NIVEA Lip Conditioner - Light Kiss

You can basically find it in any supermarket. I really like it because it smells really good. It has a white sheer color.


I hope you enjoyed,

XOXO,

Random: My favorite author

Hey Everyone!

Today I decided to do a random blogpost about my favorite author. I have read many books that she has and also right now, I am reading "Sundae Girl" by her.

Her name is Cathy Cassidy. She has started drawing and writing at the age of 8. She is also a comic book drawer and she often designs the cover on her books. I think she is really talented because she wrote so many books. Also, I really like her because every book she writes, every girl can relate to.

She has a website where you can find more things about her.

Fashion: Rebellious clothes

Hey Everyone!

Today I am doing a blog post about something that my friend Cristina (if you are reading this...Hi!) requested. I know that she isn't that girly girl that I am. She likes more rebellious clothes and that is why I decided I would do a blogpost about it.

I am sure that rebellious clothes aren't liked by so many people, but I must admit that I also like them a bit and find myself wearing them a lot.

Usually, rebellious clothes have darker colors. For example: purple, black, red...etc.

I am now going to tell you my little tips&tricks of how I style my rebellious clothes when I am wearing them.

I am not a very big fan of wearing very dark colors that's why when I wear a more rebellious top, I like to wear some white jeans. Of course, if you like wearing more darker colors and you do not like lighter colors you can easily pair it like that:

- rebellious shirt
- black or gray jeans
- sneakers.

I will now show you some rebellious clothes that I like a lot!


Let me tell you why I really like this outfits:

I really like how the girl in the first picture matched her outfit and I can honestly say that if I would have the clothes that she has on, I will be definitely wear them.

Of course that I knew that Kristen Stewart had a taste of style, but this picture is awesome! I love the red dress that she has on, and how she added the black sneakers. Dress + Sneakers = Awesome.

In the end, I will tell you a very nice wesbsite that I sell these rebellious type of clothes.

http://www.sugarrox.com/

I really hope you enjoyed reading!

**I am sorry if a person who doesn't like rebellious clothes read this. I am not a very big fan myself but I decided that I should do a blogpost just for the request that I  got. I will be making another fashion posts that are personally my style soon.**

XOXO
