Fall Colective Haul: part 2

Hello again :)

As we are aproaching the new year (4 days left-- whaat?!) and since it is already winter I thought it was time to complete my colective haul.

1. I needed a new bottle of this foundation - Bourjois Flower perfection. This is my go to full coverage foundation and I am not replacing it for anything else.

51 Light Vanilla

2. I decided to try out a few single eyeshadows from Essence.

03 Frosted apple

70 Fox in the box

3. Another addition to my Color Tattoos from Maybelline. 

35 On and on bronze

4. What would a haul be without some nailpolishes, am I right?
I found the Holiday collection from Essence and had to get all of these.

Essence Holiday Collection nail polishes

Essence Happy Holidays - 01 let it snow

5. Two new lipsticks from Essence, since I haven't tried this collection at all.

Essence Lipsticks

6. And some other eyebrow and eye stuff.. some needed and other not at all.

Essence I love stage eyeshadow base

Essence eyebrow pencil
Essence Liquid Ink eyeliner
Essence Longlasting eyeliner

I hope you enjoyed scrolling through these pictures. 

I couldn't write as much about these products since they are pretty new and I don't have much of an opinion whether I love them or not. 

In that case I hope you are having a great holiday time.

March Favorites

Hello Beauty world!
Today I am writing about my most loved and reached for products for the past month aka my March Favorites :)
This time the photos will be a little bit of a lower quality, since my Canon camera does not want to obey me.
Anyways let's just jump into it ;)

Body Care:
1. Planet spa Indulgence - Thailand lotus flower & champagne - velvety smooth bath elixir 
I have always been more of a shower girl rather than a bath girl. But lately I have started to get more into the bath/relax regime.
And that is why I have fallen in love with this product. It smells amazing and also the smell is not at all overpowering, it's very relaxing and soothing. And it makes my skin very soft after I get out of the bath.

2. Christina Aguilera - Inspire - body lotion
I've had this product for quite a while. It's one of those products that when you get it you really love it and use it all the time, but than you try something new and completely forget about your previous beloved product. Well that happened with this. This month I "rediscovered" this lotion. 
It's a very soft and moisturizing lotion. What I love the most about it is that it absorbs into the skin very quickly after the application.

3. Avon Pur Blanca - Elegance
This is my favorite spring scent. Since I got it I haven't been using any other parfumes and I think I won't stop until I use it up.
I am not very good at describing scents, but I'll try :) It is a very suttle floraly scent, I would describe it as a clean scent (yes as in clean clothes) :D
Well there you go. 

4. Avon Senses - mystique-  body spray - sensual rose gardenia, jasmine, peach & vanilla
Oh if I start with the romantic story of how I met Mr. Body Spray, this blog post would not have an end.
But on a serious note though I really love body sprays... A lot !
And this one is just a perfect scent that just reminds me instantly of flowers and sunny spring days. It's just lovely.

Skincare & Makeup
5. Avon Solutions - winter night cream
This has been the prefect nourishing night cream for this month, since my skin has been transitioning from winter into "warmer" spring (it's not really springy yet in Slovenia ... please send us some sun).

It a thick cream that gently moisturizes my skin after cleansing and washing.
I love the softness that it gives to my skin after I apply it, and also I love how my skin feels the morning after. 

6. Deborah Milano 5 in 1 BB Cream - for all skin types with SPF 20 - 00 Fair rose
I have been trying very hard to give my skin a breather this month and I have tried my best to use as little makeup as possible. Also I have switched from heavy/full coverage foundation to a light coverage BB cream.
It is a lovely product and I love that I don't feel like I have anything on my skin. It is pretty moisturizing, but if you have extremely dry skin I would not recommend it just because it does tend to stick to dry patches. But that is the only downside. And since my skin has been great and not dry at all I have been very satisfied with this BB cream. 

7. Essence kiss care love lip balm - 01 fruit crush
This product has been a dream come true for me. I love a moisturizing lip balm, but it's a whole other world when it's a little like a lipstick and it smells like a bubble gum. That last sentence pretty much explains why I love this product. 

8. Essence I <3 Stage eyeshadow base
This Essence primer has been my loyal companion, since I bought it and it will be soon gone. That makes me very sad, but at the same time happy, because I'll get to repurchase it :)

9. Essence Blossoms etc... - multi colour powder/highlighter - Flower Power
After staying matt for the whole winter, this month I decided to switch it up a bit and use some highlighter. 

And this one is amazing. Not just because of the cool pattern but also because it has a very suttle shimmer to it. The particles are barely wisible. 
I love to put it on my nose, on the chin and on top of my cheekbones for a nice dewy finish. 

10. Essence Sun Club - blondes/lighter skin - all over shimmer for eyes, face & body - Ibiza sun
A multi-functional product. Who doesn't love those?! Well I certainly do.
I have been using this one mostly as eyeshadows and maybe once or twice I used it for adding glow to my cheeks. 

11. Avon Ideal Luminous blush - Peach
This blush has been my favorite blush for more than a month now. It's is actually a shimmery version of my favorite blush of all time, which is Essence's blush in Adorable.
Just like the name says it is a peachy blush with tiny gold shimmer, perfect for spring. It makes your cheek stand out and gives them a lovely glow. 

12. Essence Smokey Eyes pencil - 03 Are you hot? 
Yes I am (just kidding).
This has been another rediscovery within my makeup collection. It a very chubby pencil and also very creamy. I love applying it as a base for a smokey eye and also as eyeliner on the upper lash line. 

13. Essence Eyebrow stylish set
I have a funny story about this product.
When I bought it I was like oh great it has two colors, I'll probably use the darker one first (since I have black hair) and I can use the lighter for my crease. Well things didn't go as planned at all as you might notice in the pictures.
Anyways this is my holy grail product for brows. It's the perfect brown for my brows and I love it very much.

14. Essence Get big Lashes mascara - volume curl
This mascara has surprised me very much. I bought it just to try it out and it's now stuck with me forever.
I love that it has a big chubby wand, and that it is curled. It coats my lashes perfectly and gives them an equal amount of volume and length. 

And that is all for today's post.
I hope you liked my favorites, maybe we had some mutual ones:)
What are your favorites? 

Thank you for reading and have a nice day,
Dee. 

Essence's 17-piece Set

Hello Beauty World ;)

A while ago me and my friend came across an offer on one of the Slovenian's  discount sites. It was about an  Essence Set of makeup. And if there is anything I deeply love about makeup, it is Essence stuff. And also I knew that these products were a great add to my collection and also I got a beautiful see-thorough makeup bag with it (I've been wanting one of those for a while).

Here is the content of this lovely set:

EYES:

1. Essence eyeshadow - 33 it's my party

- matt effect, super-soft & long lasting eyeshadow
This is a beautiful teal color and goes perfectly for spicing up a natural look.

2.Essence Quattro eyeshadow - 01 Ciao Bella!

- 4 shades, perfectly matched for trendy looks
I was super excited to see this palette in my set, since it is one of my all time favorite quattros from Essence.

3.Essence Long lasting eye pencil - 14 Think Khaki!

- Super soft eye pencil for precise application, long-lasting.
Goes perfectly with the neutral palette.

4. Essence Black mania - carbon black volume mascara

- Gives lashes ultimate volume, with carbon black pigments for intensely stunning black lashes.

LIPS:

1. Essence Lipliner - 01 Soft Rose

- Soft and precise application, long-lasting.
This lipliner  is perfect to create a nice pinky-nude lip. 

2.Essence Stay with me longlasting lipgloss - 06 Berry me

- A colourful lipgloss for glossy lips.
This glosses are great not just because of their staying power, but also because of their great color payoff.

3.Essence lipgloss - 22 Italian lover

- A lipgloss for glamorous shine.
This was one of  my favorite lip glosses years ago. I think I repurchased this shade at least 10 times. I was very glad to see it in this set and go down memory lane.

4.Essence Cream gloss with cocoa butter - 02 Cocoa butter

- Moisturizing cream gloss for smooth and glossy lips (smells like cocoa).
Amazing product! I can't believe that I never purchased it in the past. It is surprisingly the most moisturizing lip gloss I own.

NAILS: 

1. Essence Nude glam nail polish - 01 Cotton candy

- A nail polish that is perfect for a trendy nude look. For higher coverage apply twice.

2.Essence Colour&Go quick drying nail polish - 51 Mellow Yellow

- Nail polish with a flat brush - quick dry: trendy nail style within seconds!
It goes on very smoothly and it has amazing fine yellow glitter in it. Perfect for spring and summer.

3.Essence Multi dimension XXXL shine nail polish - 66 Most Wanted

- Special formula for long-lasting, high covering & extreme glossy finish.
I love the glossyness of this nail polish. 

4.Essence Glitter topcoat 

- For an extra sparkling manicure result. Extends the lasting power of the nail polish.
I have been wearing it over Most Wanted and I love the combination. Sadly I am saying goodbye to darker colors since spring is around the corner(it's sadly still snowing in Slovenia)!

FACE STUFF + NAIL STICKERS: 

1. Essence Nail Art sticker 

- Self-adhesive nail stickers

2.Essence Nail Art tattoo

- Super thin nail tattoo sticker

3.Essence pure skin

I am looking forward to giving this a go.

4.Essence Pure mineral powder make-up - 02 Soft Sand

- 100% minerals, no preservatives, no perfume, soft like powder, covering like a foundation, long-lasting.

This is a lovely mineral foundation. It is perfect for my skin and I love the natural finish of it. Sadly it is a little too dark for me right now, but I think that it will be perfect for summer when I really don't like using too much makeup.

The last piece of the set is the clear makeup bag.
This set was only 9, 90 € and I don't regret at all the purchase.
I hope there will be other offers like this again :)
I hope you enjoyed the read :)
Leave me a comment and have a nice day,

A Night Out look : Sparkling Champagne

"A night out? A girls night out ?! - Please count me in!"

Yes I love getting all dressed up and dolled up. I'm just a girl that loves to go out with her girlfriends and  talk all night about boys, love, fashion, makeup and all those girly things. And last saturday night turned out to be just that type of nights. 

These are the products I used to achieve my look: 

1. Essence I love stage - eyeshadow base

2. Essence Superfine eyeliner pen

3. Sleek MakeUP palette - 601 Au Naturel

How to get the look: 

Step 1: Prime your eyelids with a primer. I used Essence's I love stage eyeshadow base.

Step 2: Apply a shimmery champagne eyeshadow all over the lid and in the inner corner of the eye. I used the eyeshadow in the color Taupe.

Step 3: Using a blending brush lightly apply a warm beige-brown eyeshadow in the crease to create a base for the darker eyeshadows. I mixed Cappuccino and Toast to get this color.

Step 4: To darken the look use a dark brown eyeshadow with purple undertones. I used the color Regal from the palette.

Step 5: Use any light color as a highlight. For this step I used Nougat.

Step 6: Take an angled brush and a black eyeshadow to line your eyes and flick the wing upwards. For this step I used Noir. 

Step 7: Follow the lines of the black eyeshadow by using a liquid eyeliner over it. I used the Essence Superfine eyeliner. 

Step 8: Top it off with your favorite mascara. Mine at the moment is Maybelline's Collosal Volume Mascara.

Step 9 (optional): Under the lower lash line I used Noir in my outer corner, Taupe in the inner corner and to connect them I used Regal. 

Step 10: Frame your face by doing your brows and choose an eyeshadow that suits you. I mixed up Cappuccino and Bark to get my color.

All the rest is up to you, you can use a bold lip with a pinky blush or just go for a all natural look with a little bronzing powder and a nude lip.
