The beauty of skin is a woman’s business card!

For this, preventing the signs left by time should be a major concern for a woman, starting from the age of 20 years! Therefore, our skin needs special care!

Every esthetician will tell you this: a beautiful skin is a well cleaned and moisturized one. Besides the daily hydration, and the gentle exfoliation twice a week, use also a moisturizing and nourishing mask, soothing and regenerative, to restore your skin vitality and freshness!

Review: Make Up For Ever All Mat – Face Matifying Primer -Photos and Details

Published on November 18, 2009 in Beauty. 5 Comments Tags: , , , .

Hola chicas!

I’ve bought the Make Up For Ever All Mat a couple a months ago when exhibition with beauty products was hosted in my city. All of the products prices were reduced by 20-25% so I went into a shopping spree.

One of the products that I bought was this face matifying primer based on a oil-free powdered gel gel that is colorless and extremely comfortable to wear. I already had the Lancome La Base Pro (read my review) makeup primer but I wanted to try something from MUFE.

The Creative Director of Givenchy Le Makeup, Nicholas  said that the Christmas Look 2009 was inspired by pearls. The collection which is perfect for a romantic Christmas contains gorgeous products in pearl gray combined with feminine pink and a lot of special limited editions that you probably don’t want to miss.

Review: Freeman Papaya and Lime Shine Conditioner

Published on November 15, 2009 in Beauty. 4 Comments Tags: , , , , , , .

Since I know that many of you girls complimented me on my shiny and healthy hair I’ve decided to share with you one of my hair products that seems to help me a lot these days.

Maybe if you’ve heard about the Freeman products but if you didn’t let me tell you that they are covering hair care, bath & body, face, hand and foot care products. I can say that I’ve been using only some of their products from the hair care line and it seems to me that my hair gets along quite well with their Papaya and Lime Shine Conditioner.

Review – Sephora Ultra Shine Lip Gloss in Silver Toupe

Published on November 15, 2009 in Beauty. 2 Comments Tags: , , , , .

The other day after my shopping spree and beautiful experience at the Make Up For Ever shop I stopped by Sephora to a new lipgloss for me, but for the first time in a long time ( I guess very very long time) I decided that’s time for me to try something else rather than pink lipgloss.

The Ultra Shine Lip Gloss in Silver Toupe no 17 was my choice for stopping the reign of the pink lipglosses (at least for a while). I payed $ 14.90 the same as in US.

Since I already had at home the Illamasqua Sheer Lipgloss Explode ( read my review here) with its pump applicator, I’ve decided to buy a lipgloss that has a normal applicator, the one that I’m used to it.

Review – Illamasqua Explode Sheer Lipgloss – from Dystopia Autumn/Winter 2009 Collection

Published on November 14, 2009 in Beauty. 2 Comments Tags: , , , , , .

Hi girls!

How  is your weekend so far? What are your plans for Saturday night? Before getting ready for a party night I thought to share with you my impressions on the Illamasqua Explode the newest Sheer Lipgloss from the Dystopia, the Autumn/ Winter Collection of 2009.

Illamasqua sheer gloss Review Illamasqua Explode Sheer Lipgloss from Dystopia Autumn/Winter 2009 Collection

As you already know by now, I’m crazy for any lipgloss in pink shade, shimmery, sheer, with water reflections or anything that can make my lips look fuller and sparkling.

The package

First of all, the lipgloss comes in a tube simple but chic in the same time. After you remove the black cap you can notice the pump which serves also as an applicator.  You just need to gently push the tube to make the lipgloss come along the pump.
