Olea Orchid & Cashmere liquid soap - random, emergency buy... I will stick to my usual Balea and Aveo soaps :)

Balea deo - body spray - As much as I love Balea products I can't say that I like their deos. I did tried few good ones but this one isn't among them. It looks nice but that's about it. I need to go back to Dove asap.

Schwarzkopf Got2Be Rockin' It dry shampoo - great product. After I use it my hair looks much better and it even gives it little bit of volume. I didn't see it in drugstores for a while but if I find it I will definitely buy it again.

Avon Planet Spa Japanese sake and rise body lotion - Nice smell, moisturizing, shimmery and practical package. Something I would buy again.

Catrice All Matt liquid foundation - click here :)

Figs & Rouge Vanilla & Pistachio lip butter - one of the best lip butter / balms I tried. It is nurturing, it doesn't dry out my lips and it doesn't have that sweet scent most balm have...which is great for a change. This was my only Figs & Rouge product but I hope I will try more.

Aveo liquid soap - love them and I use them regularly.

Essence Translucent powder - from Mountain Calling trend edition. This is really good product. On the budget but it is doing good work. I usually use it to set my foundation or my primer and it makes my makeup last longer. I will definitely repurchase it. ( Essence has the same product with different name in their regular range. )

Balea Sail Away cream - The package is irresistible and the cream inside is good. Great thing about it is that it can be used for your face, body or your hands. So it is completely easy to justify if you buy it, I have other packages as well and if Balea continues with these little creams I will probably buy every single one :) I used this one mostly for my face or my hands.

New in - February and March 2015

I will start this New in post with my last buy. Everything you see on photo above I bought while I was in Germany. Considering that I was there only four days and that I didn't do proper shopping this is great catch. Here I have: Treacle Moon Lovely Mint Story, Ebelin nail polish remover, Catrice Velvet Finish, Catrice Nude Illusion, Bale Cabana Dream body lotion, Balea Tropical Sunshine body lotion, Balea cream, Essence So This Is Love blush ( click ), p2 Lovely Trust and Love Happens lipsticks, Essence I Heart Extreme mascara and Essence I Heart Stage eyeshadow base.

Please notice that there are no nail polish!! It really seems that my lack of space and storage for nail polish is taking a toll on me so I didn't even bought p2 nail polish which I always do. Mostly I bought products that I already know, there was no time for looking and exploring...I didn't even get to go in Lush and The Body Shop. 

Beside products I bought in Germany I didn't bought a lot. Only a Schwarzkopf Got2Be hairspray and two Balea creams in cutest tins ever. These creams are for your face or your body, I will probably use them on my face. Main reason why I bought them is the beautiful packing, if you look again on first photo you can see another Balea cream. I found that one in Germany and if Balea comes out with more of these I believe that I will buy every single one of them. After I use them for a while you can expect a blog post. 

Last photo is actually my first buy in February. Here is my new perfume Beckham Intimately. Very nice scent, I already had Beckham Intimately Yours and still can't decide which one I prefer. I will post more about it very soon! 

For the end of this post I have two nail polishes: Essence Icy Fairy and Essence Lady Mermaid. I absolutely love both of them and I already posted my swatches so if you want to know more click here and here.

Balea Fiji shower gel - I wish this is in their regular line.

Balea Dark Glamour hand lotion

Balea gel hand soap

Schwarzkopf Gliss Kur - I don't even know how many of these I had. Great product!

Rosal Corona nail polish remover - I'm definitely going back to Rosal removers in future, I love this one.

Catrice Infinite Matt make up

Avon Advance Tehniques dry ends serum

Avon Naturals Herbal Dog Rose & Aloe face cream - very nice, I always loved Avon face creams. I will probably use them more in future but I think I won't buy this one again because there are other I want to try.

Essence lip gloss Don't Bite Me - Kiss Me

Balea Young Sweet Wonderland lip balm - Balea products always look pretty, most of the time the quality of product is really good but this one is definitely exception. This balm is the reason why I will try to skip Balea lip balms in the future ( no matter how pretty they look ).

Nicole By Opi One Less Lonely Glitter - :-(

Essence sealing top coat

Summer 2013 favorites

Summer is gone and here are the products I used and loved the most this summer!

Schwarzkopf Got2Be Rocking It! dry shampoo replaced Balea dry shampoo I used before. I really love this one, my hair looks really nice after I use it. Another thing is that Muller has 50% off on this one every few weeks so that is really good way to save money.

Laura Vandini Pearl body shimmer was definitely my favorite body lotion. I thought that there is no way I wil use anything except Balea Summer Glam but here it is. Pearl gives your skin perfect shimmery glow and it has really nice texture.

p2 Illuminate Me makeup base is my favorite for a while. I hope I will be able to put my hands on it again when I use up this tube. This is the best makeup base I tried so far, if I have p2 base on my face I don't have to worry about my foundation going anywhere. Awesome product!

Avon AT Moroccan Argan Oil leave in treatment is the product I tried for the first time this summer. At this point I think I will come back to it for years to come! I will tell you more about my impressions in separate post very soon.

Yellow nail polishes were on my nails the most this summer. I don't have one specific favorite but yellow was the color of summer for me!

Essence Prima Ballerina blush souffle is one of the best Essence products ever!! Such a shame it was limited edition and I almost used it up. I hope Essence will come up with something like this in future.

Essence To Die For palette is honestly a must have. I didn't use a lot of makeup this summer and when it comes to eyeshadow I was using this one almost exclusively. 

Maybelline Fuchsia Flash was a summer hit. Bold and beautiful, one of my favorite lipsticks!

Catrice Matt About Pink is the first matte lipstick that I own. Beside Maybelline Fuchsia Flash I was reaching for this one the most.

MUA Extreme Curl mascara is one of those great MUA buys. This one is great for me, sometimes I have hard time finding a good mascara with my small eyes and tiny lashes but this one works really good!

Did you tried any of these products? What were your favorites?

Avon Advance Techniques anti-dandruff 2 in 1 shampoo - My go to anti-dandruff shampoo for years. I don't have a big dandruff problem so I only need this shampoo occasionally and after 2-3 times I wash my hair with this dandruff is completely gone for month or two. I would recommend this shampoo for everyone to try it but I know for a fact that it doesn't work for a lot of people but it is definitely worth to give it a try if you have dandruff because for me it is perfect!

Schwarzkopf Got2b Rocking It! dry shampoo - I love this thing. It is so much better then Balea dry shampoo I was using before I tried this one. I already have new bottle and I think I will stick to this product for a long time!

Dove Go Fresh deo-spray - One of few deo-sprays that I like beside Dove Original which is my all time favorite. This is a very good product and I repurchased it!

Avon Advance Techniques Protect It! heath protection spray - Very nice product, I believe that I will go back to it in the future. For now I will try few heath protections from other brands.

Essence nail polish remover - My go to remover for few years, very good but not the best out there. I think I will stick to it in future.

Avon Advance Techniques Dry Ends Serum - I'm finally back to this product, I adore and I don't even know why I stopped using it! Great product for dry ends!

 Rosal Hot Chocolate lip balm - Rosal lip balms are one of my favorites, I love this one. The quality is great and I love the smell. I told you that this year I was into chocolate scent so this was perfect for me :D

p2 Perfect Face makeup base Illuminate Me! - Great product! I use it as a base for liquid foundation but it looks great on its own too. I repurchased it when I was in Germany few months ago and it is such a shame it is not available everywhere.

Avon  Planet Spa Japanese Sake And Rice illuminating body spry - another Avon product :) I love the quality, the smell and the shimmer! I also have a full size bottle of the same product!

Ebelin cotton pads - the best cotton pads I tried!

Balea face wipes - I don't even know how many times I repurchased this product! Love it!

Just like in my last Empty post I cleaned my nail polish stash. All these did their time in my service and now I have to get rid of them. They are too thick and difficult to apply, they also take too long to dry. In my book they are done.

New in ( May 2013 )

Today I only have time to do a quick post so I decided to show you some products that I picked up lately. I usually don't do hauls or new-in posts because I rarely buy a lot of products at once. So this is something like a collective May new in post :D

On the first picture I have two body lotions and one hair product. Even though I said I will not buy body lotions any time soon that didn't last for long. In only few weeks I picked up two. First one is Bebe Young Care Night Glow. This product is out there for a while but I never tried it before. Summer is near and everything that says "glow" is a real danger for me. This one has very delicate glow, almost invisible I would say but it smells amazing so I will survive. The bottle contains 400 ml and this product is intended for normal skin. The other body lotion is Balea Summer Glam. I stopped myself from buying this product once because there is still enough time before summer but I couldn't do it the second time. This is one of new limited edition Balea products but it is actually exactly the same thing Balea had few years ago. The same color, texture and smell, only different thing is the package ( which contains 200 ml of product just like last time ). I love everything about this product, especially beautiful golden shimmer. I'm sure that this will be my summer favorite and that I will have to buy at least one more for backup.

Last product in first group is L'oreal Elvital Color Protect spray. I bought it today and used for the first time few hours ago. I love L'oreal hair products, hopefully this one will be as good as others. The bottle contains 200 ml.

My go to deo-spray is Dove Original mostly because I can't find anything else that I like. I couldn't find Dove Original so I decided to try Dove Go Fresh and it is surprisingly good. Still not as prefect as Original but it will be great replacement. 

I also have two Schwarzkopf Got2Be product. First one is Got2Be Guardian Angel heath protection. I can't say a lot about it because I only tried once, but I will share with you my opinion in the future. The product I did test little bit more is Got2Be Rocking It! dry shampoo and I love it. It really works great with my hair. After I spray it not only I can skip the washing my hair it also gives my hair volume and my hair looks really nice. Before Got2Be Rocking It! I used Balea dry shampoo but I can't see myself coming back to it because this one is so much better. 

The last group of products is Avon. I have Avon Naturals Herbal Dog Rose & Aloe face cream ( 50 ml ) and  face cleanser ( 100 ml ). Both products are for normal / oily skin type. I have normal / dry skin and they worked very well for me but I tried it only few times so far, for that reason I can't say much about it but I will probably write about them in the future. Next product is Avon AT Moroccan Argan Oil ( 30 ml ) which was on my list for some time. I still haven't used it but I will mention this on my blog for sure. The last product today is Avon Naturals Red Roses & Peach body whip ( 200 ml ). I got this from my cousin because she didn't like the smell and whip texture. It is no wonder that I love both and I have a feeling that this will be gone soon. 

Do you have any of these products?

Loreal Casting Creme Gloss ( 535 ) - I've been using Loreal Casting for years and I am more then happy with it. The color is shiny and it doesn't wash out quickly. Usually I color my hair every three months ( more or less ) and I've noticed that the color is preserved the most when I'm using Loreal shampoo and conditioner. That is not a problem for me because Loreal is my favorite brand for shampoo and conditioner anyway.

Schwarzkopf Gliss Kur Hair Repair Ultimate Repair - Very good product, great for dry hair and if you have problems brushing your hair like I do. Only bad thing about this product is the smell.

Balea Trend It Up dry shampoo - Nice product, still the only one I tried. I still don't feel the need to explore more, this is good enough. Only thing that I don't like is that I go through this so quickly, I only use it few times and it is gone...

Balea Young Funky Jungle shower gel - I already told you how much I love Balea Young shower gels. Just look at the packing, there is no way I could pass on that!

Avon Planet Spa Mediterranean Olive Oil and Dead Sea Minerals- Both products are travel size which was great for me because it can fit anywhere and doesn't take a lot of space. Quality of both lotions is great, I like them very much. Between the two I prefer Dead Sea Minerals.

Eveline Art Scenice Silicone Make-Up Base - I love this product. Something I will definitely repurchase! 

Dolce & Gabbana The One - One of my favorite perfumes ever. The reason why I had it for years is because I wore it only in special occasions. I just didn't want to run out of it. I'm sad that it is gone and I'm hoping that I will own it again. 

Loreal Voluminous Carbon Black mascara - This actually shouldn't be in "empty" category because it is still not empty, but...When I first tried the mascara it was great, I really loved it and it was great for a while but then suddenly it was like I have a different product. It just didn't do the job properly , my lashes were stack together every time and it was very difficult to take it off as well. Every time I would apply this mascara it would ruin the whole look so I don't see the point of using it anymore. 

Did you tried any of these products?

Essence Stay With Me longlasting lipgloss Me&My Icecream - beautiful everyday lip gloss, I will probably repurchase this one.

Essence Studio nails 24/7 nail base - my favorite nail base, I don't even know how many of these I finished.

Essence Nail polish remover Coconut + papaya - I love the new formula of Essence nail polish remover. I don't have favorite nail polish remover but I usually use Essence.

Balea Young Summer Glow body lotion - I already mentioned this body lotion on my blog and now I can say again that I absolutly love it. Unfortunately this was limited edition.

Revlon ColorStay Dry / Normal Skin 150 Buff Chamois - amazing liquid foundation, I already bought new bottle :)

Balea face wipes - my favorite way to remove makeup lately, this Balea wipes are amazing!

Mexx Very Nice - this was my everyday perfume, the scent was very nice and it lasted for decent amont of time.

Schwarzkopf Schauma Color Glanz shampoo and conditioner - few years ago all of my shampoos and conditioner were Schauma but then I tried L'oreal and stick with them. Now I tried Schauma again and I'm definitely gonna go back to L'oreal. They are much better for my hair.

Summer favorites

The products I've been using the most this summer are not much different then my usual favorite products but since there's been some time since my last favorites post I decided to show you what was I loving this summer.

Schwarzkopf Gliss Kur Hair Repair Ultimate Repair - I was avoiding this product for very long time because I didn't liked how it smells. I'm still not a fan of the smell but despite of that this is great product! I definitely recommend it to anyone who was dry hair, split ends and trouble with brushing the hair.

Balea Young Summer Glow body lotion - Golden shimmer and tropical scent! I've been using this almost everyday this summer, mostly for my legs and arms. I bought this product during winter and sadly it is limited edition. I believe this is from last summer collection because I can't find it anywhere right now, there are some new similar products but nothing is like this :)

Balea Repair +  Pflege Anti Splits Serum - Small amount of this product makes my ends look much better.

Elf Warm palette - This is the palette I've been using the most this summer especially when I was on vacation. It has all the colors I like and all of them are on one place so everything is more simple with this palette. 

Catrice Ultimate Color Pinker-bell - One of my favorite lipsticks, I adore this color and I've been using it a lot.

Avon Sheer Pink - I have this lipstick for such a long time that I don't even know what is the full name of it. I have it for years and this was my go to lipstick for day time and many casual occasions.

China Glaze Summer Neons - I have five nail polishes from China Glaze Summer Neons collection and they were my absolute favorite nail polishes this summer. 

Essence Studio Nails 24/7 Base - My 2nd bottle of this nail polish and a product I will come back to for a very long time.

Elf Blush And Bronzer Compact and Catrice Revoltarie Blush Color Bomb - When it comes to blush these are almost only products I've been using. Both are amazing!

Essence Quattro Palette To Die For - Beside Elf palette I was using Essence To Die For. Anyone should this or something like this in their collection. This palette has all that you need for nice neutral look.

Essence Stay With Me Me&My Ice Cream - My favorite lip gloss, I will repurchase this product very soon.

L'oreal Voluminous Carbon Black mascara - The last but not the least is mascara. This is a great one, it is out there for a long time and it reminds me how much I used to love L'oreal mascaras. I should go back to them more often.

September favorites

Here it is, my first favorites post  ever...this is for September. On the pictures are beauty product that I was using a lot during month of September and they are also the products that I loved the most...

Lets start with hair products. Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Oil Nutritive Express-Repair-Conditioner and Schwarzkopf GHR Oil Nutritive Sofort-Repair-Kur both products are for long hair for split ends protection. I will do quick review on these two products. I am using Express-Repair-Conditioner for years and it is among my favorite products since I first tried it. I have a long hair and no matter what I do after my hair is washed I have trouble  brushing it, everyone with dry and split ends know what I'm talking about. Few years ago I told to my hair stylist about that and she recommended this product. I immediately went to the store to find it. First time I tried it I noticed huge difference, brushing my hair became easy since then. All you need to do is spray the product into you hair. Your hair can be wet or dry, I usually use this product when my hair is wet. There is also other Schwarzkopf Oil Nutritive Conditioners for different heir types, I tried some of them but this is the one I always come back to :)

The other Oil Nutritive product I love is Sofort-Repair-Kur. I tried this one for the first time during the summer, this is another hair repair product. It has similar qualities as previous product, this was one of my favorite products during the summer. I recommend both of them even though if you have one of these products it is not necessary to have the other because one can do all the work and I never use them together. Conditioner contains 200 ml of product and it last much longer then Kur which contains 150 ml. 

Another great hair product which is among my September favorites is Avon Dry Ends Serum. 

Now let's go on with makeup. I love Essence Sun Club Long Beach eyeshadow palette.  Since I got it I've been using it almost all the time mostly because I like neutral colors and in this palette I have all I need in one place. If I'm in a hurry and there is no time for eyeshadow I use Essence Fairytale Pixie Dust shimmer powder...all I do is quickly apply it on my lids and they have beautiful shimmering glow. 

When it comes to eyeshadow base there has to be a place for ARTDECO eyeshadow base among my favorites.

My favorite lip products were Essence 50's Girls Reloaded I'm Sailing and Blossoms Flower Kissed. 

Nail polishes: Essence Bondi Beach Splash Refresh and Deborah Milano Love At First Sight.

Avon Arabian Glow blush bronzer is also  a product that I have for a very long time and  I like the use it during the summer. Usually I combine it with other blush but recently I was using it alone and I loved it.

Maybelline Define-A-Lash Volume Mascara is what I'm currently using and I love it. Unfortunately this mascara is discontinued.
