Red carpet: Oscars 2016

The most important film and red carpet event of the year was last night. I was hoping that Leonardo will win and that I will see some Wow! gowns. Well, Leo did win but on the red carpet everyone mostly played it safe. I love Charlize Theron, she was beautiful as always. I have to mention Cate Blanchett who is one of my favorite red carpet stars, even though this dress had too much detail for my taste. Still, I love her look and the dress! Margot Robbie also looked amazing! My least favorite was unfortunately Kate Winslet, I love her so much but this dress is very bad.

Empty #25

Today deo spray - I got this product as a gift and I can't say that I like it. I was happy when the bottle was finally empty. Only thing I like about it is the smell, I believe that I will never buy it myself.

Loreal Elseve Color Glanc shampoo - usual product in my empties.

Balea Young shower gel - Lovely package, nice smell and as always good quality Balea product. This was limited edition but I think that Balea Young line isn't available any more, which is a shame. They always had amazing, beautiful looking products.

Treacle Moon Her Mango Thoughts and Warm Cinnamon Nights shower creams - I mentioned Treacle Moon shower creams so many times on my blog and they are among my favorite. These two are really good. They are nice to my skin and they smell great. Between these two I prefer Her Mango Thoughts.

Aveo Sweet Dreamland shower gel - good quality and price and amazing candy smell.

Duchesse cosmetic pads - I usually buy Ebelin pads but this was emergency buy which proved me once again that Ebelin is truly the best when it comes to cotton pads. These are not terrible, you can work with them but they split and there is always little bit left on my nails when I remove my nail polish. It was so good to come back to Ebelin after this.

Hipp Massage Oil Sensitive - Really nice product. I've been using it for the first time and I like that it soaks in quickly which is not the case with most oils. Also, it makes my skin soft and has an nice, delicate smell.

Essence I Heart Extreme Crazy Volume mascara - One of the best mascaras especially if you look at the price. It is cheap but works really, really good. This one is even better then original I Heart Extreme mascara. My lashes are short, they don't have any volume and it  is hard for me to find something that makes them stand out. This one is probably the best so far. I will definitely buy it again.  

Did you tried any of these products?

NOTD: Pink nails with orange studs

I've been neglecting nail art for a very long time. It is time for that to finally stop. For now I'm going with baby steps with easy nail art. This one is one of those with two colors and some cute studs. I used Essence Rose In Wonderland Essence Pink To Go and Essence studs.

Red carpet Grammy 2016

Last time I posted something related to red carpet was 2013...I can't believe it was so long. Grammy Awards were last night and it is time for a little bit of Who wore what?? I can't say that somebody specially impressed me but there were some nice dresses. I featured some of them and my favorites from this bunch are Taylor Swift and Serayah McNeill. My least favorite would be Demi Lovato and Ciara. What do you think?

Winter favorites 2016

Dove Original deo spray - after very long time I finally bought my all time favorite deo spray! I think it is time for me to stop exploring other options.

Ebelin nail polish remover - I don't know is this remover that good  or my last remover ( Essence Superheroes ) was that bad but I love it and I'm definitely going to repurchase it.

Afrodita Almond hand cream - I didn't plan to buy this Afrodita hand cream but I was in drugstore and my hands were very dry so I picked up this one. I'm glad I did because it is very good. I need small amount which soaks in very quickly and smells great. I will probably repurchase it!

Essence You Sweeten My Day - this is one of those products that didn't trill me at first but after I used it more I loved it. This is only blush I'm using last few months. My post. 

Catrice Velvet Finish liquid foundation - my favorite Catrice foundation. Here is my post. Unfortunately I'm not sure if it is still available but I know that they don't sell it in Croatia so if I don't find it anywhere anymore it will be a shame.

Tangle Teezer brush - one of my best buys ever! Brusinh my hair is finally easy. Here is my review.

Is any of these products in your favorites?

Maybelline Color Sensational Matte: Magnetic Magenta and Red Sunset

When I first saw Maybelline Color Sensational Matt lipsticks I knew they will have to be mine. The colors were beautiful and Maybelline lipsticks are among my favorites so I knew I can't go wrong with it. I picked up two colors Magnetic Magenta and Red Sunset. Mostly because I love bright lipsticks and they are usually my natural pick :)

Two lipsticks that I have are like I said very beautiful and bright. It is easy to apply them and they don't dry out my lips. They even feel like I have lip balm on my lips. Like any matte lipstick you have to make sure that your lips are in good state before you apply this lipstick because it is easy to see any flows. If your lips are dry make sure you moisturize them before applying these lipsticks.  

Both Magnetic Magenta and Red Sunset are long lasting, so they can survive if you eat and drink but as always it is best to reapply them after a while. If you you don't plan to eat or drink they will look great for about 4-5 hours, they will lose intensity after that but they will still look good.

The colors are truly gorgeous. Magnetic Magenta is bright magenta that can spice up any makeup look as well as Red Sunset. Red Sunset is not your classic red, it has coral red tone that is really pretty. I say perfect color for summer!

Did you tried Maybelline Color Sensational Matte lipsticks?

Essence Pink & Perfect lipstick and Pink Me blush

Today I have two products from Essence trend editions. Since both TEs are older I decided to show you my swatches anyway in one post.
First I have gorgeous Essence lipstick Pink & Perfect from Merry Berry trend edition. This is one of my darker lipsticks, my usual picks are bright pink but sometimes it is good to do things at least little bit differently. Essence Pink & Perfect is beautiful berry pink, really nice winter color.

It is creamy, no shimmer. It is easy to apply and it lasts for few hours, if you eat and drink it would be good to have it by hand to reapply it.

Essence Pink Me from  Like An Unforgettable Kiss trend edition is pink duo blush. I bought this one randomly, because it was on sale and because why not? There is never too much makeup, right?

Pink Me is duo blush, with two shades of pink. One is very, very light and other is medium pink. Together they give you subtle pink blush which is nice for everyday makeup but if you prefer bolder blush it is better to skip this one. I think I will not reach for it very often but I will every now and then just to change my blush a little bit. For me this is good to have around because usually I don't wear a lot of makeup.

Do you have any of these two products or some other products from these trend editions?
