The Body Shop haul


Ah, online shopping! It is my joy and my curse, especially when there are discounts. This is what happened when I went browsing on The Body Shop webshop and found a "2nd for half price" discount on all skincare and makeup! I couldn't resist and placed quite an order with many little pieces I wanted to try for a while.

Vitamin E Overnight Serum-in-oil: this new evening serum is really interesting and is supposed to give you hydration overnight.

Camomile Sumptuous Cleansing butter: I have always wanted to try the balm cleanser-muslin cloth combination because it is said to be the most effective and thorough cleansing method and this cleansing butter had good reviews in the blogger world.
Vitamin E Sink in Moisture Mask: I own many clay-based and purifying masks, but my combination skin needs some deep hydration and I like to pamper it with moisturizing masks once in a while. 

Seaweed Pore Cleansing Facial Exfoliator: this exfoliator uses seaweed extract to exfoliate, rebalance your natural oil and refresh the skin. I'm curious to try it!!

Tea Tree Pore Minimiser: this is a primer based on tea tree oil which will "smooth, prime and mattify, leaving the skin feeling fresh and pure". 

Strawberry Lip Balm: as a bonus this little pot of divine-smelling lip balm came as a gift with my order.

I am really excited to try all these new skin care products and reviews will come soon!!!

What is your favorite The Body Shop products? Any suggestion?

Nabla Skin Glazing and Skin Bronzing swatches

Image
 Since their first release last year, the Nabla Cosmetics Skin Glazing formula has been my favorite highlighter and luminous blush formula in my collection. When they released the two new Skin Glazing blushes together with the new Skin Bronzing range in Summer 2020, I couldn’t resist. Check out the video of me trying them out back when they released. The original Nabla Skin Glazing formula is a thin, finely milled luminous powder that feels very firm and hard pressed in the pan. These are not powders with immediate high pigmentation, but rather ultra thin washes of color and light that melt in the skin, giving a lit from within glow. This still holds for the new Skin Bronzing powders. The new shades of Skin Glazing blushes instead are less luminous than the original Truth and Adults Only, and they are more pigmented. I still like the formula very much, but I am not a fan of of the fact that both new shades are pinks. Nabla Skin Glazing Lola The new Nabla Skin Glazing Lola is a pinky co

Office Decoration Inspiration

Source | Source | Source | Source When I mentioned in my last post that we found a new house and that we're moving at the beginning of February I got so many enthusiastic replies that I thought I'd share my ideas of how my beauty room will look like. Ever since we visited the house and received the floor plans I have been stalking Pinterest to find inspiration to furnish and decorate the rooms. The idea is for this house to be our intermediate stage while both of us finish our academic paths and find a "real job" and decide where to go live and buy our first home. Therefore we don't want to go all out with a serious furniture investment and keep it affordable and simple by going to Ikea to get the furniture that we're missing. So I though to share with you guys here my ideas to have a functional and pretty beauty room where I can do my makeup, write my blog posts and take pictures. Most importantly I want the room to be filled with sources of inspira

Colourpop pressed eyeshadows – Swatches and comparisons with Makeup Geek

Originally posted on 28 Feb 2017 Single pan pressed eyeshadows are my weakness, I collect them, I love them. Now that I’ve said that, you won’t be surprised that I’m coming to you with a review and swatches of the new Colourpop pressed shadows . Colourpop launched over 30 new pressed eyeshadows in January promoting it as their biggest launch yet. I picked up quite a few in the meantime and have been using them non stop, so here I thought it was about time to talk to you about them.  The first launch consisted of around 30 pressed shadows and the pre-made palettes. I have filmed both a first impression get ready with me ( here ), as well as a more in depth review and swatch video ( here ) on the 12 shadows that I picked up from that round. Of course, in typical Colourpop style, there have been two other launches since, one of the Valentine’s Day Collection (10 shades, swatches and review here ), and another on Valentine’s Day itself, consisting of another 10 shades in beautiful tones of
