Empties #1
I'm back again with a whole bunch
of empty products that I wanna show you :) Enjoy!
Naomi Campbell: At night (Eau de toilette) sample – I was
pleasantly suprised with this one. It's a very sweet scent with a lot of
sandalwood and vanilla. However, it didn't last on me very long, maybe about 2
hours… I don't know if it is just because it's a sample or…
Purchase: Probably not. The price
is pretty high for a perfume that doesn't last long.
Christina Aguilera: Red sin (Eau de parfum) sample – this one
smells sweet, but nothing new or different. Also doesn't last at all.
Purchase: No, not worth my money.
Avon Glimmerstick Diamonds eye liner in Black Ice – The shade of
the eye liner is Black Ice which is a glimmery version of black. The sparkle
isn't quite what I hoped for, however it does give you a pretty effect. It also
stays on really well and doesn't smudge.
Repurchase: I already did, but in
a different shade, Spacey Silver.
Oriflame Tender Care Protecting Balm (Vanilla) – I love it! I use it on lips and on elbows when my skin
is dry.
Repurchase: Already did, but in Coconut.
Balea Dry Deospray – This is probably the 4th or 5th bottle I've
used. I always repurchase it because it really works for me. However, I use it
with Deo Roll-on. It also smells nice, doesn't contain alcohol and it's very
cheap!
Repurchase: Already did.
Balea Deo Roll-on – I'm using it in combination with deospray, and
so far it seems to work perfectly for me, so I keep repurchasing it :D
Ebelin Nail polish Remover – my favourite nail polish remover. Does
the job great and the very important thing is that it is cheap, because I go through
sooo many bottles :D
Repurchase: Definitely.
Afrodita Chamomila Nail polish Remover –didn't liked the smell of
it.
Repurchase: Nop.
Avon Nail Experts Liquid Freeze Quick Dry Nail Spray – I thought I
give this a try some time ago and it changed my life forever haha :D No,
really, it changed my nail polish routine quite a lot :D After about 30 seconds
my nails are completely dry and fine to touch. On the other hand it feels
greasy. But I would recommend this to everyone!
Repurchase: Always!
Essence Studio Nails Pro white Hardener – This actually worked and
it also made my nails look brighter.
Repurchase: Maybe
Essence Gel-Look Topcoat – Well this is not as glossy as advertised
and it became thick soon after I purchase it.
Repurchase: No.
Essence Sealing Topcoat – Did a great job until it became too thick
:/
Repurchase: Probably not.
Well, that's all for my first
empties post :)
XOXO,
Katja

Avon C11
Hi!
Today I'll show you what I bought from Avon in Campaign 11.
I have
limited myself to buying only two things so I had a hard time choosing :D
1. Nail Expert Hydrate & Grow– 6ml; 2.50€
I actually bought this one
because I read so many great reviews.
This is a Growth boosting treatment, with Pro Vitamin
B5, Vitamin C, baobab and acacia extracts to hydrate. Avon claims this
treatment gives you longer, stronger feeling nails in just 5 days.
It has an applicator like a
normal lipgloss and you just massage the treatment into your nails and
cuticles.
On the Avon site this product has
an average customer rating of 4,9 out of
5.
I'm not using it long enough to say
anything, but I'll definitely make a review in the future.
2. Glimmerstick Diamonds eye liner in Spacey Silver – 2.50€
This is an eye liner in Spacey
Silver. That's a black colour with silver glitter in it. It looks so pretty!
I had one of those Glimmerstick
Diamonds eye liners, but in a different shade and was very pleased with it.
They last long, don't smear and
give just the right amount of glitter without going overboard. I would
definitely recommend this if you don't want just a standard eye liner.
Well, that's all for this
campaign :)
Take care,
Xoxo,Katja

Hello! Today I'll show you things
that I bought past few days. They are mostly from Essence, and were all on sale
:)
Let's start.
1. Essence kajal pencil n. 24 Pretty in fuchsia; 0,99€
Well this pencil is discontinued
now, so I got it for only 0,99€. I bought it mostly because of the colour, it's
so pretty and I never had a similar one.
Essence says it is long –
lasting, however I haven't tried it yet, so I can't really say anything about
that.
2. Essence XXXL shine lipgloss n.
24 Just georgeous; 5 ml - 0,99€
Also discontinued is this XXXL
shine lipgloss. The colour of this is absolutly amazing and it is soooo
pigmented. I actually expected glitter
in it, but it turned out that this one doesn't contain them and I was even
happier than before:P
The applicator is thin and longer
than usual so it makes application quick and easy. The scent is also nice,
fruit and sweet at the same time, but nothing too unnatural. It's also very
glossy and moisturizing. Overall, a very good product, I think I'll probably
try some other colours too :)
3. Essence Colour & go nail polish n. 178 Hello spring!; 8 ml - 0,99€
This nail polish is also
discontinued. It's a lovely colour, very
pretty. I don't have a swatch yet, but I
will post it soon, probably on NOTD post.
4. Balea Street Art Deo-Body spray; 150 ml - 0,79€
Well I needed a new deodorant and
I saw this one on sale (you have probably now already figured out I love sales
:D).
It also comes in an orange
version. This one smells like berries, it's lovely, but it's gone after a few
hours. Nothing special about this really, i will not repurchase.
5. Essence Metal Glam eyeshadow n. 03 Frosted apple; 2,7g – 0,99€
Also discontinued. Well, the
colour of this eyeshadow is just… amazing. The glitter on the top is just an
overspray, but there are some sparkles in the colour itself too. It's very nice
and also very pigmented.
I have already one of these Metal
Glam eyeshadows, and I'm very pleased with it. I have very oily lids and it
stays on very long. However, I always apply primer.
6. Essence 3D eyeshadow n. 03 Irresistible first love; 2.8g – 0,99€
Discontinued. I Haven't tried this 3D eyeshadows before and
I'm honestly very impressed by the quality. This duo contains a pink and a
grey/silver shade. Both are light in colour.
They are supposed to create a 3D
effect when used wet. I don't see it, but ok :D However, there is a lot of
fallout when applying.
7. Essence LE Beach cruisers Blush I ♥
Summer Break; 6,8g – 1,99€
This blush was a part of a
limited edition Beach cruisers that was sold in June? I think so.. However, you
can still get it in some stores. I got it in DM and it was on sale. It's a
lovely peachy pink gradient. It has three shades, even more if you combine them
together. All in all it's the perfect summer blush.
8. Bourjois Healthy mix concealer; 10 ml – 3,50€
I got this concealer second hand.
It's highly pigmented, so you only need a small amount to work with. It blends
and covers really well and has a long staying power. It tends to be a bit
drying, so I would not recommend it for dry skin. However, my skin is oily and
for me this is a perfect concealer.
I hope you enjoyed this, and let me know if you want me to do a review
on anything :)
Xoxo,
Katja
