Winter Picks: Nails

Hello, hello !

This monthI'm starting a new mini series in which I will be sharing with you my most worn Nail polishes/ Eyeshadows/ Lipsticks throughout winter. 

Today it's time for lots of nailpolish - 10 shades if I'm more acurate. I love these shades this year a lot cause I love changing up my nailpolish very frequently. Too frequrntly in fact.
Let's be real folks - I have a problem ! 

Well jokes aside - I don't know what it is about winter but I love wearing deeper tones and all of theese that I picked are truly magnificent.

- Deep Night Tones -

I'm starting with the most dramatic ones.
I discovered Essie's After School boy blazer (btw how cute is that name) last yeat and I've been obsessed. It's a deep blue color, it almost seems that you are wearing black nail polish, but you're not.

Hyde in the park was a recent discovery from one of the LE collecion that Catrice have out every month. It's the prettietst and I love wearing it on a night out.

Essie - After School Boy Blazer; Golden Rose -Brandy Desert; Catrice - Hyde in the park; KIKO - 374

Brandy desert is a vampy berry collor (my fave one for the winter season -  and may I add that I have too many fashion items in that particular color). Enough said !

I picked up this KIKO nail polish when I went to Malta this summer, they had a nice little shop at Bologna's airport and I couldn't resist to pick up a few items to try, since a lot of bloggers have been raving about this brand. I don't have a lot of deep browns in my collection, and this one is not just your tipical brown, but it has copper shimmer too. It's a win win situation for me.

- Winter Shimmers -

There is something apealling to me about having a shimmery nail polish on snowy days. Although there haven't been as many snowy days this winter as I'd like them to be, I still hope for one more "snow storm" just to say goodbye to snow. I love snow can't you tell !

Paralilac is the all year round go to taupe nailpolish for me. It suits my style and it has the right amount of shimmer. I can't remember when I got it, but it was a part of a Catrice LE collection.

Catrice - Paralilac; KIKO - 858; H&M - Extravaganza

I  also picked up Extravaganza on a trip last year when I went to visit Bratislava for a day (I even made pictures for a post, I just never got around to post them - maybe I'll do like a traveling post).
It's a party in a nail polish bottle. That's the perfect description. 

This one is from the same trip in KIKO as the dark brown one. I have nothing like it in my collection which with the amount of it that I own it surprises me a lot.
I wish I had an eyeshadow that was this color.

- Warm Afternoons -

When it's too cold outside I like to pretend that I'm warm just by playing make belif with the color of my nailpolish.

Golden Rose - 109; Catrice - Chromeo&Julia; Essie - Twin Sweater Set

I remember bloggers posting pictures on this collection and I fell in love with Chromeo and Julia right then and there. The next day I picked it up. It the most beautiful marble polichrome nail polish I own.

Twin sweater set is an all time favorite for me. It's the first Essie nailpolish I purchased. I love everything about it. It's one of my favorite reds from my collection.

GR 109 - I picked up this one this summer. I loved it all through fall and because of it's warm color I keep reaching for it.

So these were my winter picks, and I'd like to know which are yours?
Share your favorite shades of nailpolish with me in the comments below!

Thank you for reading and have a nice day,

My 2013 Favorites

Hello :)

 

Today I'm sharing with you my 2013 beauty and random favorites. 

1. Skincare: My absolute favorite is this Avon Clearskin pore penatrating peeling. I've been using it through the whole year and it has became an irreplaceable product in my skincare routine.

2. Skincare: The L'oreal Hydra Active 3 micelar solution has been a dream for taking off makeup, it is probably the second best thing after the amazing Bioderma H2O.

3. Face: BB creams were big this year too and the Deborah Milano 5 in 1 left a big stamp on me. It is by far one of the best drugstore BB creams I've ever tried. I will keep repurchasing it for sure.

4. Face: Catrice LE Illuminating Base made me fall in love with highlighters and has been my dear companion through this year. We glowed into the night together !

5. Face: I was finally able to try the Collection 2000 concealer. And yes as you all know it is the best ever. I have to get it again. 

6. Eyes: The Sleek Vintage Romance palette found it's way to our hearts with it's goregeus jewel toned eye shadows. This palette has became a must have for a night out. 

7. Eyes: 2013 was the year that the Color Tattoos came to Slovenian drugstores. Since then I don't think there's been a day that I haven't used these as a base or just on their own.

8. Eyes: Maybelline mascaras have always been my favorites, but the Rocket stood out for me this year. It makes my lashes look great. I love that it gives me both length and volume. 

9. Eyes: This was one of the first products I tried from MUA. I love the formulation of this eyeliner. It's creamy and it glides on very well. I love lining my upper lash line for a smokey look.

10. Lips: Another discovery in 2013 were the new Essence lipsticks. I got two shades for now but I'm sure I'll be purchasing more. Very pigmented and very creamy.

11. Face: For pale girls bronzers are extremely hard to find. That is why I opted for this Catrice Multi Colored powder and I use it as a bronzer for a natural sun kissed look. 

12. Nails: In early fall I made my first Essie purchase. This one is in the shade Twin sweater set and it is the perfect all year round red color. It's been my favorite nailpolish ever since I bought it.

13. Nails: In 2013 I discovered the Golden Rose Jolly Jewels glitter nailpolishes. I own 4 of these and I love them all but this rosegold one is by far my favorite. If you have the chance to try them please do, you will be amazed.

14. Random: I love when my room smells nice and cozy, I mean who doesn't :)

I love using this Yankee Candle waxes. I do have a little obsession over them which has turned a shelf of my vanity into a mini wax collection. These are just some that I love. I'm currently burning the rest of my Christmas Memories wax.

15. Food: My breakfast consists of coffee and a bowl of these lovely Flakes. They taste amazing and they aren't the worst thing for your body. I love to eat them with milk or greek yogurt and add some banana to them.

16. Food: I do add honey to my bowl of cereal too. 

This one has been my favorite this year. I've been through so many that I can't even count. I love honey so much and I sweeten everything I can with it. 

17. Drink: My second favorite drink after coffee is tea. And my all time favorite tea has to be this Good Nature - Apple & Cinnamon tea. Those are two of my favorite things combined in a tea. Could life even get better? :)

Those were all the things I loved and enjoyed in 2013 and I'm sure I'll keep enjoying them in 2014. 

Are you familiar with this products and if you are, which are your favorites? 

I'm excited to read your comments.

Thank you for reading,

Fall Colective Haul: part 1

Well hi there ! :)

Today I have for you the proof of how naughty I've been this fall and I have it in two parts.
I hope Santa will forgive me and still bring me my present for Christmas ?!

Anyways lets get into the details of what I got in the past two months.

First I'd like to state that "A girl can never have enough nail polishes, it never stops !"

So to honor that statement I invested in some nail polishes.

The one to the left is Essence Colour&Go - 112 Time for romance which has a sand finish that you'll be able to see in the picture below.

The middle one is Essie's Twin sweater set.

And last but not least I decided to give this thing a try - The Essence "Better than gel nails" top sealer.

I was searching for a lighter consistancy foundation and my lucky winner was the Maybelline - AffiniMat Foundation.  I like it so far, If I happen to fall in love with it I'll let you know.

The next item is a just another addition to all my other Color tattoos and this one is in the shade 70-Metallic Pomegranate.

It look great on its own and also it's a great shade for a fall/winter smokey eye.

Last but not least is a product that everyone has been raving about for a long time now and influenced by those individuals I was pursaded to buy this item.

It is the popular Nivea Lip butter - Vanilla & Macadamia

I've also been reading a lot of blog's and a lot of people do state that this isn't worth the rave. 

However in my opinion it's a nice product. It isn't as moisturizing as I expected, but for me the scent gets me. It just smells too good and I can't hate it. 

And that is all for this part. 

Have you tried any of these products and which one do you like best?

Let me now in the comments I would love it ! 

Have a nice day, 

Dee
