Mascaras with brushes bigger than your eye

❣ Hello Beauties ❣

Today I would like to do a little overview of mascaras that I bought recently. The first one is AVON Infinitize mascara and the second one was part of Ladybox November - CATRICE Better Than False Lashes. Both are black and have brush the size of my eye.:-)

ღღ Clarins Everlasting Foundation - Teint Haute Tenue ღღ

Hello Beauties,

I am BB cream girl.;-) Well, I usually do wear BB cream. I prefer original Asian BB cream especially from Lioelie. Easy to use it, wear it, has high SPF, brightening and hydrating properties. If I should wear foundation it would be for a bit more special occasion - date, concert, etc. It would be THIS one - Clarins Everlasting foundation (Teint Haute Tenue).

Catrice Cosmetics - Arts Collection eye and face pallets LE

Hello Beauties,

Once again I was shopping at DM drogerie where I found "new" Limited Edition from Catrice cosmetics. It is limited Arts collection - 3 pallets and 3 nail polishes. In Slovakia you can get just two pallets - pink and green one. Pink represents Baroque and green Jugendstil. The last one, orange which represents Art Deco, is not available in our country. The price in DM drogerie was less than 8 euro for each pallete which is not bad at all. ;-)

❦ CATRICE Cosmetics nail polish - Arts Collection LE❦

Hello Beauties,

I recently bought two of tree nail polishes which are part of CATRICE Arts Collection - limited edition. Pink, orange gold and green; all are massive shimmery and very nice. You can see the shimmer right on the nails. The nail polish bottles are unique and on each is different pattern. The price in DM drogerie where you can buy Catrice, was around 2,70 euro which is the same price as for regular nail polishes.;-)

Catrice mousse blush spectaculART collection

Hello Beautiful,

I have never own mousse blush. When I saw this in DM drogerie near checker for less than two euro I had to have it! I know this is not a new thing because I saw this kind of mousse blushes around summer. But it was in sale and when I look at it it was very nice. The second reason was that during winter my skin get a bit less oily and this would be better than powder blush. More natural.:-)

Gold manicure with orange twist + Catrice nail polishes I bought recently

❤ Hello beautiful ❤

This is very easy and nice manicure. I bought few new colors from CATRICE and wanted a bit of staple nails, well at least my ring finger was a bit in summer still.:-)

Last week love - sickness week - Najčastešie používaný make-up minulého týždňa, keď som chorá

This is first time that I am writing this kind of blog. So please bare with me.:-) I usually like to change my make up a lot. That is not because I am so talented and have a huge imagination. I just each week buy something new and therefore I like to try it, test it and see how it works.

❤❤ DIY Christmas gift - treat ❤❤

Hello Beauties,

Today I prepared for you very simple, quick DIY Christmas gift for your friend, colleague, mom ... or for yourself. It is very nice as a Christmas decoration.:-) 

❅ ❅ Sunday tittle tattle - Nedeľňajšie klebetenie ❅ ❅

❅ Ahojte ❅

Máme druhú adventnú nedeľu! Ja stále nemôžem uveriť, že už je po Mikulášovi a do Vianoc je to už len "pár" dní. Mikuláš prebehol v chorobe a tak isto aj celý víkend.:-( Takže čajíkujem, užívam si svoje super teplé ružovučké "kroksy" s kožušinkou, ktoré mi doniesol Mikuláš. Waw, musím sa mu veľmi poďakovať! Sú teplučké, perfektné pre zimné mesiace a kožušinka sa dá odstrániť takže aj v lete ich určite využijem.;-)

Simple festive nailart - red white dots

I like to do my nails.:-) I know that I talked about it before, but when I see girl/ woman with nicely done nail the girl/ woman looks so much put together that if her nails are bare or even worst gnaw out (nails or skin around nail). This red manicure is super easy, festive and quickly done.:-)

October - November Empties - Products I used up - Október a November - vypoužívaná kozmetika

Once again a blogpost about products I used up durin October and November. I know it seems a lot, but some of them I did have for more than a year.:-)

KIKO Maku up Milano - Ultra Tech waterproof mascara, Pure Clean instant make-up removing wipes

My first and ever purchase from KIKO Make- up Milano.:-) I hear about KIKO from French YouTube girls. I bought this in KIKO shop in Rome, Italy. The shop was packed with girls (because of the sales) and it was really hard to see, touch or try anything. I asked one younger shop assistant if this mascara is for length or volume and she recommended it to me for both. She said "Oh, actually I am wearing it right now." She had amazing long lashes and therefore I bought the mascara.:-)

Oriflame Pure natural purifying cleansing wipes - Čistiace pleťové obrúsky s výťažkami z čajovníka a rozmarínu

At first I would like to point out that I have never used cleansing or make - up removing wipes. I am almost 30!?! Could you believe it?:-) Ok, I used wipes for hands. I realized that everyone around me is using some kind of cleansing, removing, calming etc. wipes. They are convenient to use. It is a big time saver, you do not need any water, great for travelling, and you can use it everywhere and anytime. So why I have never used wipes? I just do not know.:-)

No more bad hair day - Balea dry shampoo (trocken shampoo)

I am not the only girl that has days where hair just does not like me. There are flyaway everywhere, hair with no volume, flat hair, oily roots...Well, sometime I just make a pony tail and pretend that my hair are good as they are. I know it is a shame. I heard a lot of good things about DOVE dry shampoo which can be used also as texturizing product. I found in DM drogerie similar one from Balea for about 2 euro. It was good price and Balea products are quite good. This Balea dry shampoo (trocken shampoo) is excellent for me.:-)

Illamasqua Nail Varnish - Throb Lak na nechty

I hope that if you read some of my blogposts you can tell that I am kind of nail polish junkie.:-) I do like to try new nail polishes, glitters, stickers, nail art ornament and new techniques to do my nails. I usually do my nails twice a week. It is quite often, but part od the reason is that usually after 3 to 4 days one of my nail get chipped. I have never tried anything from Illamasqua. I was really surprise when I received nail polish (varnish) from Illamasqua in Ladybox October. You can buy Illamasqua nail polish 15 ml for £14.50 from official Illamasqua web site.

Recent Avon and Oriflame purchase - Nákupy

Are you the same person as me that you never have enough of balm and mascaras? As always I do have several (I mean 6 or 7) open balms and mascaras. Some of the balms are in my purse others at work or home. I use balm constantly either for lips, cuticles, dry upper parts of my hands, heels, elbows, scratches or bruises. Almost on any part of my body. Even on my nose if I am sick.:-)

Essence Nail Art Special Effect Toppers

Once again I bought bit too much when I was shopping in DM - drogerie. This time I was looking for some nice glitter nail polishes, glitters, stickers or anything that would make my pre - Christmas manicure so much nicer and festive. I found these amazing Nail Art Special Effect Toppers from Essence!:-) The price for each was less than 2 euro and therefore I had to buy them all!

Vitamins Argan Oil

This was my first oil that I used on my hair. All over the beauty blogs and on YT are girls that swear by Aragn Oil and its benefit for everything - hair, body, face... I looked thru eBay and found Argan Oil from Vitamins. Price for 100 ml was around 10 euro. 

Face of the day Natural make-up Travel friendly - Denné líčenie

During my stay in Rome, Italy I did not want to put loads of make - up and spend 30 minutes of doing so. I wanted to be presentable and neat. This look will take you 10 minutes and you can leave your house for adventures of the day.:-)

Tea Tree Calming Mask Sheet Skin79 - Maska na tvár Ladybox

I am big fan of using any kind of face masks. This Tea Tree Calming Mask Sheet from Skin 79 was part of Ladybox October. I used sheet mask before and I was very pleased with it. It was sheet mask from Balea.

Caudalie Divine Oil (Huile Divine)

I really like to use all kind of different oils on my body, hair, face, hands, feet. This from Caudalie - Divine Oil (Huile Divine) is a special one. It is dry oil specially designed from four different oils - grape oil, extra-virgin argan oil, extra-virgin hibiscus oil and sesame oil. The price range for this Divine Oil is a bit higher, for 100 ml you will pay around 35 euro ($ 49). 

Avon calming effect - redness corrector

I tested this Avon calming effect - redness corrector for a few weeks but still I cannot decide if it is good or not. The size is 15 ml and I bought it for about 2,5 euro. I tried to apply it with finger or brush, with or without face primer. Because I do have red cheeks and if it is hot in the room or outside my cheeks just get so red and hot that they are more visible that I would like to. Whou, such long and complicated sentence.:-) Basically, hot = red cheeks = not nice look.:-)

Lioelie Triple the Solution BB cream

This would be very short blog post about Lioelie Triple the Solution BB cream SPF 30 whitening wrinkle care. I bought this from prettyandcute.com for about 20 euro after I saw several YouTube beauty gurus talking about how great it is. All was true.:-)

Clarins Daily Energizer Cream - Crème Eclat du Jour - Denný rozžiarujúci krém

I do not have a one stable day cream - moisturizer and I like to try and change it a lot.:-) I bought Clarins Daily Energizer Cream - Crème Eclat du Jour on eBay in four sample sizes and was not more than 10 euro. Which if you want to try something new and do not want to buy a full size product, is good way of testing new things.:-)

Avon Magix Face perfector

Today I would like to share my opinions on Avon Magix Face perfector (perfecteur de teint) with SPF 20. I do have combination oily skin and I need to use primer for better application of foundation and also I need to prolong the wear of it.

Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic Spritzer

I am not hyped up by the face sprays. I see face tonic, beauty waters and so everywhere. I bought Caudalie one and that I like a lot because of the smell and that it contains essential oils. I do like deep cleansing mask from Liz Earle that I reviewed. You can check the review here and therefore was curious about another product from Liz Earle.:-)

L´Occitane LAVANDE De Haute - Provence foaming bath - pena do kúpeľa levanduľa

I really like to take baths. It is calming, relaxing and pampering time. I usually use bath bombs, bubble bars, bath salt or some solid bubble making thing.:-)

Elizabeth Arden Prevage anti - aging moisture cream SPF 30

Well, I even do not know how it happened that Elizabeth Arden become one of my favorite cosmetic companies that I love almost everything that I try. This day cream from Elizabeth Arden - Prevage anti - aging moisture cream broad spectra sunscreen SPF 30 is one of my most loved creams that I use on daily basis.:-)

Palmer´s Cocoa Butter formula - Ladybox

Well, I have never try anything from Palmer´s and have to thank to Ladybox for my experience.:-) Body lotion/butter Cocoa Butter formula with Vitamin E from Palmers I received in Ladybox September. 

Balea Reinigenge maske

Once again Balea face mask from DM drogerie.:-) Balea reinigende maske is clearing mask that contains kaolin and zinc. Mask clean out impurities, helps with bacteria (zinc) and removes dead skin.

ROME - Italy trip

I know that is far too much from beauty, but I went for a small trip to Rome - Italy and want to share some pictures and thoughts. I did buy two things from Kiko Cosmetics which I will show you later on my blog.:-)

Yves Saint Laurent Lipstick Rouge Volupté Shine, Rouge Volupté

I heard about YSL Lipsticks so much good. When I saw them on Facebook page katkaparfumery.sk for 15 euro!!! Yes, you read correctly, I had to buy them.:-) I did choose one YSL Rouge Volupté Shine No. 8 and one Rouge Volupté No. 29. Both are pink. They are even better than my expectations.:-) LOVE them both.:-)

Garnier Olia permanent hair color

I color my hair on a regular basis each two months. I do not change my hair color extremely. I like to have my dark brown color a bit lighter. I wanted to try new permanent color Olia from Garnier till moment I saw commercial!:-) The price is less than 5 euro which is very nice! I bought this color in DM drogerie.

GOSH Velvet Touch Line Perfector - Unique Primer Product

This is so far my favorite primer for face - GOSH Velvet Touch Line Perfector - Unique Primer Product. I use it after my moisturizer and before I apply my make-up.

Golden smokey eyes MUA trio - zlato hnedé dymové líčenie

For today face I used MUA (Makeup Academy) eye shadow trio in Innocence which I received in September Ladybox. Trio is really nicely pigmented baked shadow, contains from light beige, gold-brow and dark brown color, can be applied with brush or ring, bit too much shimmer for my liking. Good for travelling, the case is hard plastic.

Maybelline Baby Lips - Pink Punch, Mint Fresh, Intense Care

During my stay in Milan in Italy I found a small drugstore where Maybelline Baby Lips were selling. I cannot buy these in Slovakia. So I bought three of them - Pink Punch, Mint Fresh, Intense Care.:-) 

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength, Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme wear a Miss Sporty Sparkle touch

Dermacol Perfect Cleanser 2in1 Odličovacia a čistiaca voda

V Septembrovom Ladyboxe bola novinka - micelárna voda od Dermacol Perfect Cleanser 2in1 odličovacia a čistiaca voda. Som veľkým fanúšikom micelárky od Biodermy, ale vždy chcem vyskúšať nové veci ak môžem.:-)

Nailart - Fialové variácie s mašličkou - Sally Hansen, Catrice

Sobotňajšie nákupy - EVA Hriešne dobrý nákupný víkend Aupark

V Októbrovej EVE boli, ako každoročne, kupóny na zľavy do nákupného centra Aupark. Väčšinou takéto akcie obídem, lebo nakúpim viac ako by som mala. Tento rok som sa rozhodla, že sa pôjdem zúčastniť, ale s presne stanoveným limitom na minutie.:-)

Líčenie očí - CATRICE

Dnes kratší blog post o líčení očí. Podklad/primer na očné tiene od ELF, béžový perleťový tieň nanesený bruškom prsta na celom viečku paletka CATRICE. Palety očných tieňov od CATRICE mám veľmi rada, sú dobre pigmenované, vhodné na rôzne typy líčenia, ľahko sa nanášajú, rozotierajú, nanášam aj prstami aj  štetcom, cenna okolo 4,50 euro. Modrý základ pre linku ceruzkou CATRICE - veľmi silno pigmentovaná, dobre sa nanáša, neťahá viečko. Na vnútornú polovicu oka som štetčekom na linky naniesla bledo modrý odtieň - paleta CATRICE a na vonkajšiu stranu viečka som naniesla tmavo modrý odtieň. Vnútorný kútik oka som zvýraznila bielym trblietkavým tieňom.:-) Maskara od Rimmel Lash Accelerator - dobre predĺži, ale žiadny zázrak. Na obočie som použila ceruzku od Rimmel. 

Lenka

Avon eyeshadow base - podklad pod tiene

Pri mojom poslednom nálete na katalóg AVON, myslím, že to bola 14-ka som objavila podklad pod očné tiene - eye shadow primer (base fixante pour ombre a paupieres). Cena bola super, okolo 1,30 euro a primer má 3,5 g. Super nie?:-) To aj ELF je pri tejto cene drahší.

Brow Addict Famous - Ladybox júl / červenec

Nikdy som nebola veľkým fanúšikom používania ceruzky, púdru, fixky, gelu, čohokoľvek čo by sa dalo použiť na obočie. Pravdaže sledujem zahraničné blogerky a starostlivosť o obočie, resp. o jeho zjednotenie, tvar, zvýraznenie alebo dokonca samotné zviditeľnenie, nie všetci sme obdarení krásnym hustým tmavým obočím ako Audrey Hepburn, je veľkou časťou príspevkoch na blogoch alebo na YouTube. Hovorí sa, že oči sú bránou do duše a obočie je predbráním?:-) Krabička Ladybox júl/červenec obsahovala paletku na obočie Brow Addict Famous. Povedala som si, že je to znamenie a mala by som konečne niečo s mojím obočím mohla vymyslieť aj ja.:-)
