New love : Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in Medium Brown

This month I couldn't help myself and I did some shopping in the sales. I showed you several hauls previously on the blog, one of them being this one . One of the products I bought then I had really wanted for a long time was Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in Medium Brown.
   
Since then I wear it every day with my make-up. I have become really addicted to it! Now it's time to share with you my thoughts on it since many of you have expressed your interest.

A new weapon against heavy sweating : SVR Spirial

New from The Body Shop : Italian Summer Fig Eau De Toilette

Ladies I have good news for you! Starting with 3rd of August the perfume range from The Body Shop is enriched with another one : Italian Summer Fig Eau De Toilette. As its name suggests it is a summer perfume, probably fresh and fruity, perfect for the hot summer days. I have to admit I am really curious about its scent and I can't wait to check it out in the stores.

Scent your skin with the fresh, fruity fragrance of Italian Summer Fig. Our figs are emblematic of the Puglian coast in Italy – we hand-selected them there, where the sun-baked soils produce them in abundance and with a juicy scent that fills the warm air in summer. We pick them at the height of summer when their aroma is the richest, and create our succulent green scent.

• Green, juicy fragrance
• With Community Fair Trade organic alcohol
• Layer with other products in the Italian Summer Fig range to build the scent.

Directions for use : Spritz onto neck and pulse points.
Ingredients : 

You can find it in The Body Shop shops from 3rd of August at the price of 118 ron. 

New in - make-up edition - with swatches

During the past few weeks I have had more free time than usual to explore the beauty stores in search of news and products on sale. As I have posted earlier I couldn't leave the stores empty handed therefore I present you today another New In post, filled with products that are new in my make-up stash and my first impressions on them.

The Balm Nude'tude palette - review, swatches

Last week as I visited Marrionaud to see what was new or reduced I discovered that some of The Balm products were on sale, including one palette I had wanted for a long time : The Balm Nude'tude. Of course I bought it on the spot! Since it's still in the shops I hurried to write a post about it to help you make up your mind about buying it or not.

Tag: I Love Drugstore Makeup

some of my drugstore products

Yves Rocher Naturelle Eau de toilette - my fresh breeze in the summer

In these very hot days I can't really stand many strong scents, especially in perfumes. A sweeter scent that I like in the winter time makes me sick in the summer. Therefore I like to wear very fresh, citrusy, light scents. One of my favourites is Yves Rocher Naturelle. 

Sephora Eau de Toilette Lemon Verbena - one must-have for me in the summer!

In the summer time I love to use fresh, flowery scents in all products, especially in perfumes. The all-time favourite scent is lemon, especially lemon-verbena. One of the perfumes I buy again and again each summer is Sephora Eau de Toilette Lemon Verbena. As you have seen in a haul I posted before I found it on sale therefore I bought three! This is how much I love it in the summer!

Melvita Eau Florale de Rose Ancienne - review

Today I will talk to you about one of my very favourites : the Melvita Eau Florale de Rose Ancienne, which I use as toner after the make-up removers or as a refreshing water during the day.

Fresh in the summer ? Yes with Nivea

In the scorching, hot summer days it is very important to feel clean and fresh at all times. A good deodorant is a must! To keep you freshly perfumed and the ones around you happy! This year Nivea has launched three new deodorants in the Fresh range, inspired from nature : NIVEA Fresh Comfort, NIVEA Fresh Flower and NIVEA MEN Fresh Ocean (for men).

Focus on ... Guerlain

GUERLAIN. 

Timeless elegance. French sophistication and charm. Tradition and innovation. Cult brand. Worldwide appeal.  

Guerlain's story is above all one of legacy.

Five generations of Perfumers who have succeeded one another, holding the creative reins.

Wycon Wild Escape limited collection or glamour on the go - swatches

The inspiration for this new collection is an escape to wild places, from the mundane to the exotic. The collection contains exclusive make-up products using warm colors with a metallized pink gold packaging.

Haul again : Sephora, Sabon, L' Occitane en Provence, Anastasia Beverly Hills

So yesterday, together with Andreea from ZonaMov (to whom I had promised a visit to Inglot), we set out to conquer Baneasa Shopping City mall with our eyes set on beauty and cosmetics, as beauty bloggers that we are. It was a very fun and interesting experience!

A small Yves Rocher haul

On the 4th of July it was my birthday and Yves Rocher, same as many years before, sent me an email offer I couldn't resist! If I ordered a minimum 50 ron I would get the Naturelle Eau du toilette 75ml free. I adore this perfume, especially in the summer! So I placed the order and it arrived today.

New products in town with InspiredBeauty.ro

I am very happy to present you today a new online shop InspiredBeauty.ro. They were created to bring to Romania a large variety of brands at accessible prices and to make the shopping experience a very pleasant and easy one.

The reason for my excitement is the arrival to Romania of several brands you could only buy from abroad. Let's take them one by one.

MustaeV wishlist - Eye Make-up Edition

I have met MustaeV quite recently by testing their Skinny Tint foundation, which was a very pleasant surprise for me. I really didn't expect with my combination to oily skin (more towards oily now that's summer) that this moisturizing foundation would last all day on me, without melting and dissapearing in different places, especially around the nose. 

   
I had a full 10 hour day at work and I was really excited to see it almost as well applied onto the face as in the morning. Yes I had to blot and reapply powder around every 4 hours but I have to do this with almost every foundation  anyway. So yes, my first encounter with MustaeV was a hit!

Valentina Pelinel talks about beauty, attitude and life

I don't think there is any beauty and fashion lover who doesn't know who Valentina Pelinel is. She is a very famous model nationally and abroad. A vision of beauty inside and out, she hosted a beauty conference on 25th June 2015 at The Library restaurant, in which she revealed the secrets of her beauty and success.

L'Oreal Paris Skin Perfection Micellar Gel - review

One of the products I received for testing from L'Oreal when I graduated the L'Oreal beauty blogger school, was this eye make-up remover : L'Oreal Paris Skin Perfection Micellar Gel.
   
Of course I had tested micellar waters before and I was familiar with the technology but I had never heard of a micellar gel before, so I was really intrigued and curious to see if it was as effective as a micellar water. Now I am about to finish it so it's time I write my thoughts on it.

Beauty Mix - giveaway - CLOSED

As I saw you liked better mixed products giveaways I thought I would start another one. This one contains mix of products consisting of face and hair care and make-up.
