New In - December 2015

I have postponed this post for lack of time to photo the products but I have had them since December so I thought I would show them to you. They all will be reviewed on the blog (some of them already are, I didn't have the patience to wait). There are mostly make-up products with some body and bath items in between. Here they are :

New In my make-up and care stash

I have accumulated many new products in my stash for the last months, my bag was full so I decided to show them to you and dig in. Since I am very short on time, I thought I would film them live on Periscope and show them to you (I am slightly yellowish in the video due to the light in the room). The video recording lasts for 24 hours on Periscope and I'll also post it on my Youtube channel where it will stay permanently.

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.

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

As you already know by now the sales season is in full swing ! Of course I couldn't help myself to check them out! 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 little Sephora haul

Ladies, you know by now that the Sephora summer sales have started! There are sales up to 70% off selected products. I've seen reductions at Make-Up For Ever, Benefit, Lancome, Clinique, YSL, Estee Lauder and more. There were also reductions at OPI, Ciate, Max Factor, Bourjois, Sephora and more so go and check them out! You know me I just couldn't help myself, I bought some necessities.

New in - make-up edition - with swatches

Sometimes I have new products to show you but they are not enough for a post of their own. Therefore I will write a New in post like this one, where I will present you the new products and my first impressions on them.
   
I have gathered several eye shadows from Inglot, L' Oreal, Melkior and one from Make-up Geek (I was really curious about it, I've heard so much about their amazing quality).

Surprise, surprise : news from Inglot

On Thursday the 7th of May Inglot gathered the entire beauty blogosphere to present its newest products. Knowing how wonderful all Inglot products are, I was very intrigued and excited. As soon as I arrived at the store I went straight for the new arrivals section.

Cosmobeauty 2015 haul or going overbudget

Yesterday I posted the highlights of Cosmobeauty 2015  and I promised you I would show you what goodies I bought. The plan was simple : I needed a good face powder and I wanted to try one from Paese, the rest was optional, I thought I'd have a look at Inglot and Mekior. Bad mistake! Of course I went overbudget!

I confess I am addicted to ... Inglot

I have to confess I am a late bloomer, regarding Inglot. I have heard of course about them, that they have an amazing quality in all their products, especially eye shadows, eye liners and lipsticks - that they are pigmented, resistant and gorgeous. And still I avoided the Inglot shop ... maybe it was my wallet which was very afraid of getting empty ... Anyway one day I saw on Facebook they had a sale, it was a lovely sunny day so I decided to pay them a visit at their Baneasa shop. I live in Militari, sector 6 Bucharest , the shop is quite far away ... so I  have to be really motivated to go that far ...
  
As soon as I entered the shop I felt like entering a magic kingdom ... of beauty and colour. It was amazing, so many things from make-up to nail polish, tools and many others. Bliss! Anyway I swatched some eye shadows, pigments, blushes ... I knew from that moment on that I was already addicted ... So I left with a few products that I will show you today after testing them for a few months or so (I have paid them another visit and bought some matte eye shadows, I will tell you about them in another post, after testing them for a little longer). But first a little about Inglot.
