Good and natural pimple treatment :)

2012-07-30T05:19:00.000-07:00

Hi guys ! So first of all i am soooo sorry for abandoning the blog during all those months, i have moved to spain and all whas super caothic i just got all the things right and i am ready to post a LOT of reviews, makeup looks and i whas also thinking about making some tutorials on youtube :) well, i will see :)

So now lets go on to the actuall thing, the super good and natural pimlpe treatment i have been trying for the past days. I have to say that this isn`t the actuall review about this product, and since i have only been using it for a week i will post another aticle saying how it went since it is just a 20 days treatment :)

So now you must be thinking, What is this product? well you may never have heard of it since not so many peoples do now about it, it is called Magnesium chloride and is is a product that you can buy in a pharmacy without any prescription.

Since you buy this product as a powder you you have to mix it with water, you can usually find the measures on the packaging but if not you can easily find it on the internet.
When you have mixed it, just put it in the refrigirator and waite until it gets cold, then what you do is that you drink one SMALL glass of this preparation everyday during 20 days, after that you have to wait 10 days and if then you pimples havn`t desapeard or have came back you just do the treatment during 20 days again :) I just have to worn you that this thing have the most awfull taste i have ever felt in my whole life, so you now that it is normal if it tastes really bad :)

I have drinked this thing once a day for a week now and i have already seen a huge improvement in the way that my skin looks, what i also do with it is that i soak some cotton pads with it and lay them on the problem areas during at least 30 min and it takes of all the inflamations and a good part of the redness as well, so i really recommend this product to erveryone it is definitly something that works, at least for me :)

PS: i wanted to now if any of you guys have ever tried the luminess airbrush system? I have heard a lot of good things about it and i am dying to try it i would just love love love to find a way to lay my hands on one :)

Nuxe "huile prodigieuse" review.

2012-03-15T04:03:00.000-07:00

The Nuxe "huile prodigieuse" is a muliti-purpose care, you can use it on your body, your face and even in your hair. This is a dry oil, which means that when you apply it your skin will feel really smooth but dry unlike some other oils that makes your skin feel oily for an half hour.
This oil is one of Nuxe bestsellers, there is also another version of it called " the huile prodigieuse or" which contains a lot of gold shimmer, i have never tryed it but i have heard some really good things about it as well.
Read on for the actual review :)

I had this product laying around for a while now and never really used it ( i think that it is because it's an oil and i am always super suspicious about oily products) but last week i ran out of my body butter and seens i had nothing else ,i though, why no?

When i used it for the first time i was kinda surprised, my skin felt super smooth and not oily at all, it was amazing but i was steel a little sceptical, i though this feeling wouldn't last so long, but i was wrong, my skin felt silky smooth all day long.
Since it gave me such a good result i kept on using it every day and after a week i noticed that my skin looked a lot more moisturized and bright.
All i can say about this product is that it is amazing ( wouldn't review it if it wasn't) i love,love,love,love it !! And it smells sooooo good, i could just stay there and smell it for hours, it smells just like summer for me ;)

The downsides of this product is the price ( it's quiet expensive) and the packaging of the small bottle (the one i have) it is kinda hard to apply since it doesn't have any spray.

PS. i just wanted to say that i only use it on my body, i haven't used it on my face or in my hair ( i am going to try in the hair this weekend) so i can't say how it works in those areas.

I am back !! :)

2012-03-14T03:47:00.000-07:00

Hey guys!
So this was just a quick post to tell you that i am back, i am soooo sorry that i haven't posted anything this week but i have been really busy packing my stuff.
Also i am not going to be able to post any makeup look this week either, my eyes have got super sensitive, i can't even wear mascara !! :( so yeah but i am going to do some reviews and some tips and tricks, about that i wanted to now if you guys would like me to do some videos, i have been thinking about it for a while now and i think that i am actually going to make my own youtube channel, what do you think ?? :)

Caudali-quenching sorbet creme review.

2012-03-10T12:00:00.000-08:00

Hey guys ! :)

Here is a the review of a product that i have been testing for the past few weeks and that i adore, the Caudalie quenching sorbet creme. Caudalie is an awesome french brand which products are all wine based and 100% natural, i have personally tried a few products from this brand and i love all of them, especially they're "fleur de vigne" shower gel, which smells just amazing.

The caudalie quenching sorbet cream, is a moisturizing cream that is made out of wine.
This cream isn't oily at all which is one of the things i love the most about it, when you first squeeze it out of the tube it seems to be kinda thick, but once you have applied it just seems to melt into the skin leaving it smooth and moisturized.
Like you guys may now i live in Sweden and it gets pretty cold here in the winter (around -20) and even if my skin is oily during summer it gets super duper dry when its cold, i have tried a lot of moisturizer but since i needed to use some pretty heavy stuff they where all oily and thick and made my face feel really greasy. Of course i have tried some water based ones but they just weren't enough.
The magic thing about this cream is that it is super moisturizing without making your skin feel greasy or oily, i have even noticed some improvements with my skintone which feels amazing, another good thing is that you will only need a pea sized amount of it for your hole face which is great.

The only downside of this product is that it is a little pricey, 20 € for 40ml, but even so i am definitly going to buy it again and again, i truly think this is an amazing product and i would recommend it to everybody.

you can find the caudalie products on www.caudalie.com .

So sorry !

2012-03-08T12:51:00.000-08:00

Hey guys ! :)
So i wanted to tell you guys how sorry i am for only posting one article this week ,the explanation is that i have had a looot going on, i am going to move in June but i already have to begin packing my stuff in boxes so it will all be super duper organized. Another thing is that i have got kinda of an eye allergi so i can't put makeup on, but i swear that as soon as it is gone i will upload as many makeup looks as i can :)
So yeah :) see you !!

Make up store Blush in gold fusion :)

2012-02-28T03:40:00.000-08:00

The make up store blushes have a super wide range of color and finishes, they can have a matte, a glittery or a satin finish, i have purchased this blush when it was on sale and i don't regret it, i love love love it :)
Make up store i actually a Swedish brand tat i find quiet similar to M.A.C or make up store the only difference is the price Make up store is a little cheaper which is a plus, You can purchase items from this brand on kicks.se .

So like i said i love love love this stuff, you can see from the swatch above that the pigmentation is amazing, i actually don't now if it is a good or a bad thing for a blush, you have to be really careful while applying it or you will soon look like a clown.
Talking about the application, it applies on really smoothly and if you don't use to much product it will blend in easily. The wear time is pretty good as well, it stays on all day long.
The color of this stuff is just breathtaking, i mean it is sooo pretty, it's a beautiful berry color mixed with some gold particles it really looks like gold in fusion.
They really isn't any bad things about this product, the only thing that makes it a little difficult to handle is the pigmentation, i am not kidding, be careful, this stuff is pigmented .

i'll give this product a 9/10.

PS. if you want me to review a special product just leave a comment below and i will see what i can do :)

Hey guys :)

The Natural Eye Kit contains everything you need to create the pretty, soft, and slightly sexy "natural eyes" youve seen on super models and celebrities and have always wanted to perfect for yourself. The three easy-to-follow, step-by-step instruction cards lead you through every fun step to insure a professional looking application every time!

Color: Day: Heaven, Velvet Revolver, Sexspresso, Classic: Silk Teddy, Push-Up, Erotica, Fashion: Nude Beach, Honey Pot, Cocoa Puff.

Heaven, Velvet Revolver and Sexpresso.

Silk Teddy, Push-Up and Erotica.

Nude Beach, Honey Pot and Cocoa Puff.

This palette is awesome it really impressed me, the eyeshadows have a great color payoff (the matte eyeshadows are less pigmented than the other, but they still beautiful) and are easy to blend.

The majority of those colors ( except for Heaven, Velvet Revolver and Sexpresso ) have a lot of glitter in it and are very shiny especially Nude Beach and Honey Pot but they are totally wearable.

I am a huge fan of the neutrals eye shadows and i felt in love with this palette from the very first time i saw it, i use it almoste every single day to do my makeup and it's really amazing how many different looks you can create with only this palette.The size of this palette make it realy easy to take it with you if you are traveling or sleeping over at a friend's house.

Weekly tips and tricks: Homemade eyeshadow base :)

2012-02-23T23:24:00.000-08:00

Hey guys :)

Here is the third post from the Tips and tricks series, it is a little recipe that i have found to be really usefull :)

I know that eyepimers can be pretty expensive and sometimes even hard to find, so i wanted to share with you guys this little recipe that i have learned recently and that works amazing, it makes the colors pop out and the eyeshadows stays on without creasing for a pretty long time, of course it wont stay as long as if you used for ex. the urban decay primer potion, but it does work really well.

Here is the recipe:

Ingredients:

any kind of liquid foundation.
a thick and creamy moisturizer.
you will need an empty container to store your primer.

How to:

mix together the liquid foundation and the thick moisturizer into the empty container or if the container is to little into a bowl.
You just have to remenber to hold on twice so much moiturizer than foundation, so if you use for ex.1 deciliter foundation you will have to add 2 deciliter moisturizer.
When you are done just transfer the eye primer into the empty container and your finished !

It just takes two minutes to prepare this eye primer and it will save you a lot of money. I used the 24h superstay foundation from maybelline new york and a nivea moisturizer and it worked just fine :) i made a hole bunch of it because i whas so scared that i would run out of it really quick (which is just stupid because it would just take two minutes to make a new one) and now i realize that it will take years to finish it because you just need to apply the tiniest amout every time, i really recommend to you guys to try out this recipe because it is just amazing how well it works i still cant believe it.

could you guys please leave a commment to let me now what you think about this little recipe :)

M.A.C single eyeshadow: Brulé pictures +review.

2012-02-23T23:21:00.000-08:00

The M.A.C single eyeshadow in brulé is a gorgeous light beige highlight with a satin finish, I would say that it actually is one of the most famous M.A.C eyeshadows.

First of all i wanted to apologize to you guys for not doing any swatches i have tried a lot of times but this eyeshadow have exactly the same shade as my skin so it just didn't showed up on picture, now lets begin with the actual review ;).

I just adore this eyeshadow, it was the very first M.A.C eyeshadow i purchased i decided to get it just after i saw Juicystar07 mac starter kit video and i can say that i don't regret it, this is the best highlight eyeshadow i have ever tried it isn't to shimmery or to matte just perfect.

Brulé is really easy to blend and it helps me a LOT when i have to blend out the hard edges of my crease color it make it go a lot faster and you only need a little amount of color because it it soo pigmented it is just the perfect finish for your eye makeup.

Like all the M.A.C eyeshadow it is a little pricey but if you are interessted in makeup i think that it is definitely worth it.

Viva La Diva glitter eyeliner in gold

2012-02-13T08:02:00.000-08:00

This product is another one that i have ”borrowed” from my mom and that i also adore, it is the Viva La Diva glitter liner in gold.
Viva la diva is an awesome Swedish makeup brand that i am in love with, they have a lot of fun products and they’re color range is huge, it kinda of reminds me of NYX, good quality and little price :)
you can check out they’re products on www.nelly.com if you want to.
read on the see the review and more photos/swatches.

The color of this liner is amazing, it is the perfect shade of gold not to bright but not to dark, just perfect + it has a lot of shine in it which makes it even better and more fun to play with .
the texture of this product is i think a tiny bit more liquid that other liquid liners i have tried, but instead of making it more difficult to apply it actually helps a lot and it doesn’t dry as fas, so you can get it to look just the way you want it to.
Now lets talk about the pigmentation, OMG, this stuff is sooo pigmented, i was really impressed wis it, i got the result that you can see in the swatch above with just one stroke, seriously, it is just ridiculous.
About the wearing, i worn it for a hole day, and even if it had kinda faded when i came back home att night, you steel could see the color, it just wasn’t as defined as when i applied it earlyer in the morning.
The only bad thing i can find about this product is that the glitter doesn’t follow through, i couldn’t manage to get it on the brush, but since it has such a shine without it, it doesn't bother me that much ,still it is kinda of a bummer .
So in conclusion, i would definitely recommend this product since i think that it is amazing, and i think i am going to try some more colors, hopping that they are as good as this one.
