Colective Haul #1 + Mini Reviews

Hello lovelies !

I've felt quite inspired lately so I thought I'd use it all to blog and fill your feed with posts, why not am I right?
Anyway I haven't been buying a lot of things at once so I was waiting for items to pile up so I can post them collectively.
This are products that I've accumulated from a few trips to the drugstore.

- Ziaja Sensitive moisturizer - Nivea Pure&Natural day cream - Garnier Perfect Blur primer -

1. Ziaja Sensitive Skin soothing day cream with SPF 20: since I bought this moisturizer has become really and important step in my skincare and I like to use it when my skin feels dry and when I need extra hydration. I also love using it under makeup for a more flawless dewy finish.
I do need to mention that it has a specific smell, to me it smells great, nothing particular, kind of like a cream would smell like, but my mom has mentioned that she can not stand the smell of it so I guess that part is individual.
I do recommend it though, because it gives the skin so much moisture.

2.  Nivea Pure & Natural soothing day cream for dry and sensitive skin: 
I have been using this one for the past year of year and a half. I'm planing on doing a more detailed post on it, since it is one of my holy grail skincare products.

3. Garnier Perfect blur primer: A newcomer on the market that I have fallen in love with, it works perfect, and I love how smooth it leaves my skin when I apply it. It leaves the foundation looking flawless.

- Alverde wash cream - Alverde Peeling and mask - Alkmene wash creme - Balea peeling -

4. Alverde Clear washcreme: another of my holy grail skincare products. I use it on it's own and in a combination with a peeling.

5. Alverde Clear Peeling and mask: since I love the washcream from this line I thought I'd give a go to the peeling too. I still haven't gotten to using it yet, so I'll keep you posted on that one.

6. Alkmene Washcreme with tea tree oil: this product has surprised me the most from all my purchases, in a positive way of course. I love the smell of it, it's so natural and silky on my skin, I love washing up with it. I also use it to dessolve my makeup before taking it off with a wipe.

7. Balea Enzim peeling: this is another experimental product that I haven't used yet. 

- Catrice 1+1 nailpolish - Essence Come to Town Nail set - Essence Come to Town Quad - Essence Come to Town eye pencil -

There is not much I can say about these 4, since they can pretty much speak for themselves with those gorgeous colours.
The Essence ones I got from the winter/Christmas collection, but not just because I love Christmas, but also because I love that deep burgundy red colour.

And the Catrice nailpolishes were just a lucky bonus, plus who wouldn't fall in love with that brilliant topcoat.

That is all I had to share with you today.
I hope you enjoyed reading my post!

Do you own any of these products and what's your opinion on them?

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,
