Protect Those Pretty Eyes.




Sunglasses madness*



I was always obsessive with sunglasses.
The first thing that i would look for at any accessories store were sunglasses.
I am wearing sunglasses all the time.Even in winter,which in fact is not so crazy cause it is quite sunny here even during winter.
As a result right now i have a rather big collection (considering that having one or two pairs it's ok for most normal people).
So in this post i'm gonna show you part of my collection and talk about each pair.Maybe you'll be insired and i'll help you decide what kind of sunglasses you want,maybe not...we'll see ;)


1. Huge Black
This is a must have piece.It will never go out of style.It can always save you during a lazy day that you're so tired to put make up or after a crazy night (huge black under eye circles)

2.Huge White
A definite-go-for for all of you that get during the summer (or have naturally medium to dark coloured skin).They look so pretty on.So stylish.3.Weird shaped
Nice if you want to make a difference and they look good on your face.
Make sure to try them on at the store.
4.Bright Coloured
Great choice if you like attention (and for sure if you are young -i wouldn't recommend those for ages >25 :/).Personally i stopped wearing them when i realised that coral is not my colour x)

5.Huge Brown
An alternative if you're more into brown.


6.Cute touch
An amazing choice.Personally my favourite pair.Unique.Special.Cute.

Product Review: Hello Kitty by H&M

Hello Kitty + H&M = Cosmetics *




As a lot of you know for quite a long time now h&m has launched a cosmetic line with hello kitty.
So i was shopping the other day and in my surprise some of these products were on sale (quite weird because "normal" h&m beauty supplies weren't on sale).So they had this crazy thing 1€/each product ,so i got 3 of the products that i liked (they also had a green body spray that smelled really nasty,a mirror with hello kitty on ,a hair-brush).
The first thing that i got is an eyeshadow pallette with 4 eyeshadows.The original price was 3.95€ so that made me think about how overpriced some products are!

The name of the pallette is Kitty high summer beauty and it is from the Peace And Love Collection.
It comes with 12 g. of product ,2 spongetip applicatorsand 4 colours of eyeshadow. Purple,Green,Pink,Silver
All four of them are really shimmery so i guess i'm only gonna be using them at night.
The idea of having 4 spongetip applicators i think is great because you can use each for a different eyeshadow colour.How smart?
They are really pigmented (i just touched each colour and then applied it on the back of my hand).purple,silver,pink,green
The only "bad" thing about this palette is that the silver eyeshadow is smaller than the other ones and it is the one that i'm gonna use the most,and that green and purple are quite "crazy" colours and it's difficult to put on an eyelook and don't look like you're coming from the carnival!
But considering the price it is a rather good product.
I also got 2 lipglosses.The one was the coconut lime flavour.


It was also for 1 € and the original price was 1.95€.
The thing that i love about this lipgloss is that it actually smells like coconut!
I love this smell so i had to have it!The other one was the raspberry flavour.It was also 1,95€ originally.
This one smells like candy.Similar smell to all lipglosses.Not so much like rasberry.

Here are both of them.
The thing that i don't like about them is that they are really sparkly (espesially the coconut lime one) and they are quite sticky!The colours are pretty light.First is raspberry and then coconut.
The raspberry is a bit pink on the lips and the coconut looks like clear.


Review:
Pallette:Positive,especially if you like bright colours
Lipgloss:Pretty negative,cute packaging,nice smell but really sticky...Noone likes sticky lipglosses!

Product Review: Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush

Product Review *



After i've watched over 20 (or more) reviews of this product on youtube i decided to purchase it,because i really needed a blush for the summer.

This is how the packaging looks.It is so cute.The jar looks pretty much like the mac paint pots.I don't know though if the maybelline blush has more product cause mac measures the product in grams and maybelline in millilitres..and i don't know how to convert these two..but whatever.
I got the colour: peach satin.More colours



Pinks
pink frosting
rose petal
Mauves
soft plum
Plums
cloud wine
Corals/Reds
peach satin
Browns
coffee cake


While i was watching the reviews it was quite weird because pretty much everyone had the peach satin one.Well now i understand why!It is the colour that looks more natural on the jar but also on the skin.The colour is quite shimmery (something that you don't realise when you're looking at the product packaging) and quite natural looking when i apply it on my skin (keep in mind that i have a very light coloured skin).
The price of the product at my local beauty store was 11 €.A little bit more overpriced compared to what i was listening and to the prices that websites like drugstore.com had.So make sure that you'll check all of your local beauty stores/drugstores to find the best deal!

The fact that this blush's type is mousse is really great especially for the summer.So much better than having powder on your face when its 100 degrees outside.
The only thing that maybe is a bit negative for some people is that the pot size is actually tiny so you cannot really fit a blush brush inside.You have to apply it with your fingers.

About what maybelline is mentioning on the website:


Why You'll Love It

Air-soft formula provides luminous, long-lasting color on cheeks. > The product is quite shimmery so defenetely luminous and also long-lasting colour for sure (at least 6-8 hours)
  • Glides on smoothly and blends easily for seamless color and a natural, radiant finish > it blends really easily -simply by using your fingers-and looks quite natural-if you don't overdo it-and for sure radiant.
  • Air-whipped mousse delivers satin-soft feel on skin > the feeling while applying is really nice.It's really soft so you feel like you have nothing on your face!
  • Long-wearing formula will not clog pore > I have a big problem with products that clog my pores and this one doesn't!




So after all my reaview on this product is 100% positive.Definitely a product you should check out and have in your collection.
