Sabon Dead Sea collection, first impressions

Hello my lovely readers today I'm back with my first impressions on the newly launched Sabon Dead Sea collection. I was present at its official launch and I was most thrilled to see it live and try it at my heart's content. I had written about the Dead Sea collection before and I really liked its sophisticated packaging but I didn't know its scent, consistency, texture and so on..

Bioderma and the make up removal lesson

A loud classroom at the Happy Skin School is awaiting the teacher. They are speaking loudly and moving endlessly across the room. The bell rings and rings and gradually the children take their seats in the classroom. Teacher M enters the class.
'Good morning children'. 'Good morning teacher'. 'Today's lesson is about make-up removal, or how to have a happy, healthy skin'.

My freezing temperatures make-up and body care routine

As I promised, today I'm back with the second part of my go-to products for use in freezing temperatures. The previous post was dedicated to face care (make-up removal, face creams, face masks, SPF and lip care), today's post will be dedicated to my body care routine and my make-up essentials in the winter time.

My freezing temperatures face care routine

It is winter here in Bucharest, freezing temperatures, high snow, weather forecasts predicting even more snow and low temperatures. Until about one week ago the winter was mild and warm. Now it has arrived with a bang! The temperatures are -20,-15 or less at night and -10 or less at day. And my skin is not taking it well. It has become dehydrated, dry, brittle and I got out of my stash the heavy guns : the products which are the most moisturizing and thick and creamy and comforting. So I decided to share them with you. Today's post is all about the face care routine (make-up removal, face hydration, face masks and make-up products). I'll be back with another post on the body care for these freezing temperatures. Let's begin!

MustaeV Cheeky Chic blush in Floral Glow - review

I think one of the best investments make-up wise for a beautiful look besides a good base is a great blush. I believe that a good blush suitable for your skin and hair color works wonders! It revives a tired complexion, makes you look good even if you are sick and makes you look younger and fresh if applied sparingly for a natural effect. There are universal blush colours that suit most complexions and work for all seasons. One of these is certainly a good pink. Today's post stars a blush that has entered quickly in my make-up favourites. It is MustaeV Cheeky Chic blush in Floral Glow.

Longing for the summer - Ming Shu Fleur de l'Aube

Today's post in a trip in the past, the perfume it features is one of the oldies and goodies (it's no longer available, maybe on Ebay). It is a perfume I own for many years, I use it sparingly since I love it very much and I am trying to keep it with me a little longer. It is Yves Rocher Ming Shu Fleur de l'Aube. When I wear it I feel the summer breeze, the sunshine, I feel free and happy, feminine and elegant, ready to take on the world.

Estee Lauder Color Edit holiday set

As I told you in a previous post estee-lauder-modern-muse-le-rouge  I recevied from my Santa the Estee Lauder Color Edit holiday set (I've unboxed it on Periscope, the video is here : katch.me/adrianatone/esteelaudercoloureditset). If I bought a perfume or a perfume set, I would receive the set at a very convenient price. So I decided to  buy a set of 4 mini size perfumes by Estee Lauder : Beautiful, Pleasures, Modern Muse and Modern Muse Le Rouge (my Santa didn't want to receive the money for the set, giving it to me as a gift).

Many of the products in the set are limited edition but I saw a similar set here in Romania at Debehams beauty therefore I thought I would show my set to you and write my first impressions on some of the products (there will be reviews for all the products in the set on the blog) to help you decide should you want to buy the Romanian version.

Elmiplant Skin Moisture CC Cream in Light - review

I have received questions about this CC cream I have had for quite a while so I decided that a review is in order. I really like Elmiplant products I had face creams and make-up removal products and I got along well with them. Today's post is about Elmiplant Skin Moisture CC Cream.

Sephora Instant Nail Polish Remover For Glitter - review

I am not really a nail polish addict, you may have noticed that on the blog , the nail polishes are few and far between but I like to wear nail polishes. On my nails they don't last long. What I really, really hate is chipped nail polish, so whenever I see one nail chipped I remove all of them.

Until now, I had the tendency to shy away from glitter nail polishes due to the pain of removing them. Well, after I bought the Sephora Instant Nail Polish Remover For Glitter, this ceased to be a problem. Why haven't I tried this before ??

Estee Lauder Modern Muse Le Rouge - dare to inspire

This past Christmas I was very good so my Santa brought me an Estee lauder set (I've unboxed it on Periscope, the video is here : katch.me/adrianatone/esteelaudercoloureditset). If I bought a perfume or a perfume set, I would receive the set at a convenient price. So I decided to  buy a set of 4 mini size perfumes by Estee Lauder : Beautiful, Pleasures, Modern Muse and Modern Muse Le Rouge. So far, I love the most Modern Muse Le Rouge and that's why it is the subject of my post today.

Protesud deodorant antiperspirant cream - review

This review is long overdue. I had had this Protesud deodorant antiperspirant cream for a long time but since I had many deodorants already in use I had to wait to finish them all. And I did and I am currently using this deodorant cream for more than a week so it's time I share my thoughts about it with you.

This body butter was finished and since my empties box was threatening to burst, I decided to publish my review and finally get ready the last empties post for this year. It was high time! I had posponed this post for too long.. Back to the subject of this post : it is IDC Institute Jasmine & Magnolia Body butter (IDC Institute is a Spanish brand with headquarters in Barcelona).

Gerovital H3 Natural Antiperspirant Deodorant - review

I have finished another deodorant I have used in tandem with my B.U. My Secret deodorant. I  always prefer the spray deodorants, I don't really like roll-on deodorants due to their liquid, sticky texture. Since I have finished it and it will go to the empties box (a large one filled with products, I can't bear myself to photo it..) I thought I would tell you my thoughts on it. It is Gerovital H3 Natural Antiperspirant Deodorant.

Bioderma Sensibio H2O micellar water - review

Today's post stars one of the most loved, cult products from Bioderma : its Sensibio H2O micellar water. I have finished it earlier and couldn't find the time to review it. Of course, as a star product, it caused a lot of controversy : it is worth the not so cheap price, how does a simple water remove long-lasting make-up and more. Well it's time to see if Bioderma Sensibio H2O micellar water really deserves its praises.

The Body Shop Drops of Youth Eye Concentrate eye cream - review

I have bought The Body Shop Drops of Youth Eye Concentrate a while ago out of curiosity and wanting to try an eye concentrate that promises to refresh the eyes, to diminish the fine lines and the fatigue signs. Many promises..let's see if they are delivered.

Wycon Automatic lip liner in 105 Petal - review

I have been looking for a dusky rose lip pencil shade for a long time. All I could find were either too bold or too faded. And in one of my trips to Wycon I found it, I saw it, tested it and loved it! And of course I bought it on the spot. I have used it for a while so I thought I would show it to you. It is Wycon Automatic lip liner in 105 Petal.

SVR Physiopure Cleansing Micellar Water Pure and Mild - review

I have received this micellar water for testing at an Optimashop event and since my current micellar water was on the verge of ending, this was the next best thing. I have the SVR Physiopure Cleansing Micellar Water Pure and Mild in use for several days now so I can tell you my thoughts on it.
