IsaDora Brush Cleanser

About two months ago I showed you in one of my haul posts that I got this new IsaDora Brush Cleanser for cosmetic brushes which was a novelty in our stores.

I've used it now for quite a while and my conclusion is as follows :)

It comes in a black 150ml spray bottle and has a nice fresh scent to it (you can also get a hint of alcohol scent). It's supposed to be suitable for both spot-cleaning and deep cleaning your brushes.

Unfortunately I can't say that I'm a fan of this cleanser.

At first I tried to use it to cleanse my foundation brushes and it just didn't manage to dissolve the makeup. So from then on I first wash my brushes with a regular antibacterial soap and in the end use this cleanser to get rid of all the residue and disinfect my brushes.

I never need to spot-clean my brushes but I tried it just to see how it works and also, it took some time and effort and I still didn't feel that my brush was clean enough.

All in all, it does the job but not as fast and efficient as I would like. I will use it up but I'm pretty sure I won't repurchase.

Have you tried this brush cleanser? What are your thoughts on it?

Which brush cleanser is your favourite?

Umbes kaks kuud tagasi näitasin ühes oma ostude postituses IsaDora Brush Cleanser pintslipuhastusvahendit, mis oli Ideaalkosmeetikas just müügile tulnud ja 150ml pudel maksis toona 6.25€.

Pudel on läbipaistmatu ja pihustiga ning sel on üsna hea värske lõhn kuigi ka alkoholilõhna on veidi tunda.

Puhastaja peaks sobima nii pintslite kiirpuhastuseks kui ka sügavpuhastamiseks niisutades ja pehmendades harjaseid.

Kui ma seda esmakordselt oma jumestuskreemi pintslitel proovisin, ei saanud see absoluutselt meigijääkide "sulatamise" ja eemaldamisega hakkama. Seega võtsin appi tavalise antibakteriaalse seebi, millega suurema mustuse pintslilt maha pesin. Seejärel kasutasin IsaDora pintslipuhastajat, et eemaldada viimased jäägid ning pintslid desinfitseerida. Selliselt talitades toimib see pintslipuhastaja üsna hästi.

Oma pintslite kiirpuhastamiseks (spot-cleaning) mul vajadust pole kuid proovisin järele, kas ja kuidas see toimib. Paraku ka vahendit otse pintslile või salvrätile pihustades ning pintslit salvrätti pühkides, võttis puhtaks saamine palju aega ja vaeva. Ja ikkagi ei saanud pintsel nii puhtaks kui ma oleks soovinud.

Kokkuvõtteks, ei ole ma selle puhastajaga ikkagi piisavalt rahul ning suure tõenäosusega seda enam ei osta.

Kas oled IsaDora pintslipuhastajat proovinud? Kas meeldis?

Milline vahend on sinu lemmik pintslite puhastamiseks?

L'Oreal True Match Mineral Foundation

In one of my recent posts I mentioned that I am currently obsessed with mineral powder foundation.

As you can see from the picture, mine is well used and loved and I'm almost out of it :)

I am talking about L'Oreal True Match Minerals Foundation (mine is French and is called Accord Parfait Mineral which I suppose is the old packaging and in US they call it True Match Naturale Mineral Foundation).

It comes in a rather chunky pot with a brush. First of all, I don't like the included brush and never use it unless in emergency situation. It does it's job but is a bit too harsh on my skin. Also, the big pot and the messiness is not very travel friendly in my opinion.

But that's about all the negative things I have to say about the foundation :)

 

I love this mineral foundation because it's very easy and fast to apply, it has almost full coverage, doesn't cake, crease or oxidise, leaves my combination skin nice and matte for a long time, looks beautiful on the skin during the day, hasn't broken me out or irritated my skin and is unscented.

I apply it with my Sephora kabuki #50 brush and you can see on the picture below how little I need to cover all of my face and neck.

I have it in shade 4 Golden Beige which suits me just fine at the moment but I suppose I have to get a lighter shade for the winter.

Also, a big bonus is that this mineral foundation is made 95% from minerals with no perfume or preservatives and has SPF15 in it.

So, if you've tired of finding a perfect liquid foundation or just want to experiment, I suggest you check this one out because honestly, I am loving it!

:)(:

 

 

Ühes hiljutises postituses rääkisin, et olen vaimustunud mineraalsest meigipõhjast ning nagu pildilt ka näha, on minu potsik peaaegu tühi ning korralikult vatti saanud :)

Tegemist on L'Oreal True Match Mineraalidega puudriga (minu eksemplar on ilmselt vanas pakendis ja prantsuse keelse nimega Accord Parfait Mineral), mis minul on toonis 4 Golden Beige.

Potsik on üsna kopsakas ja kaasas on ka puudri pealekandmiseks mõeldud pintsel. Minu jaoks on see pintsel veidi liiga kare ja ma üldiselt väldin selle kasutamist. Samuti on tolmpuudriga toimetamine ka veidi räpakas aga see on ka põhimõtteliselt kõik, mida ma saan puudri kohta negatiivset öelda :)

 

Mulle meeldib seda puudrit meigipõhjana kasutada, sest seda on mugav ja kiire peale kanda, sel on peaaegu täiskatvus, see ei kogune vagudesse ega muuda päeva jooksul värvi (ei oksüdeeru), muudab mu kombineeritud tüüpi naha matiks väga pikaks ajaks, on nahal ilus ka õhtul, pole mu nahka ärritanud ega tekitanud punne ning on lõhnatu.

Mineraalpuudri pealekandmiseks kasutan Sephora kabuki #50 pintslit ning alumisel fotol on näha kogust, millest jätkub kogu näo ja kaela katmiseks. 

Hetkel sobib toon 4 Golden Beige mulle hästi kuid kahtlustan, et talveks tuleks tooni või kahe võrra heledam puuder soetada.

Suureks plussiks antud toote juures on asjaolu, et see on 95% ulatuses looduslikest mineraalidest koosnev, ei sisalda lõhna- ega säilitusaineid ning sel on SPF15.

Seega, kui oled uue meigipõhja otsinguil või tahad lihtsalt proovida midagi uut ja teistsugust, julgen True Match Mineraalidega puudrit kindlasti soovitada, sest ma ise lausa armastan seda!

NOTD: Mesmerize & Mojito Madness

Being sick really sucks! So, to boost my mood, I'll share my weekend manicure with you!

This time I paired two nail polishes from Essie yet again  - one of my favourite blue shades Mesmerize with green Mojito Madness on my ring finger which I wore for the first time.

I have two coats of both of them topped with Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat as usual.

I quite like how it worked out though my nail polish started to chip the next day. 

What do you think? :)

I did a similar manicure last summer with lighter shades - you can see the result HERE .

Haige olemine on ikka päris kole :( Tuju parandamiseks jagan hoopis oma nädalavahetuse maniküüri :)

Sel korral kasutasin jällegi kahte Essie küünelakki - üht oma lemmikutest sinistest toonidest Mesmerize koos rohelise Mojito Madness tooniga, mida kasutasin esmakordselt.

Minu küüntel on kaks kihti kumbagi lakki ja pealislakina kasutasin oma lemmikut Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat nagu alati :) Paraku hakkas lakk mu küüntelt kuluma juba järgmisel päeval.

Siiski mulle täitsa meeldib, kuidas see kombo välja näeb :) Kuidas sulle?

Eelmisel suvel tegin sarnase maniküüri heledamate toonidega, mida võid vaadata SIIT :)

Haul: Avon & Essence

I did a little haul recently and got some very affordable (if not to say cheap) products to try out. Here's my first impressions :)

Since I'm using powder foundation now which takes a bit of time to adjust to my skin I got Avon Makeup Setting Spray to help me fasten the process. It's unscented and comes out as a light mist.
I haven't used it enough to say if it does what it's supposed to but I'll continue using it and will let you know :)

The second product I was curious to try out was Avon Extra Lasting cream eyeshadow in shade Totally Taupe. This one surprised me a lot and in a good way. When I swatched it, it seemed a bit too shimmery for my liking but when I applied it, it was sheer and rather glowy. It lasted all day, didn't crease and putting it on with my fingers was quick and easy. It's actually more like a powder to a touch than a cream, maybe velvet would be an appropriate description for it. Happy I got it and what a bargain :)

There's only one store in my home town that recently started to sell makeup by Essence. This store has also a sale going on right now where some of the products are 40% off.

So I decided to get Essence Lash & Brow Gel Mascara to put my eyebrows in place and it's done a really good job :) They are tamed and stay put whole day!

The other product that actually was 40% off was Essence XXXLShine Lipgloss in shade #24 Just Gorgeous. Once again, I'm surprised how nice this product is. It's very glossy (not shimmery), moisturising and not sticky at all. For all that I will go and get some more shades of this lipgloss and will forgive the cheap-looking packaging :D Also, I saw Chloe Morello use Essence All About Matte Primer in one of her recent tutorials and since that one was also 40% off, I'm gonna go and get that one, too :)

Once again I was proved that good stuff doesn't have to cost a fortune :) Have you tried any of these products? What would you suggest me to try out from Essence next? :)

Eelmisel nädala soetasin mitu väga soodsat meigitoodet, mis juba miljonendat korda tõestavad, et hea asi ei pea ilmtingimata maksma terve varanduse :)

Kuna kasutan viimasel ajal mineraalpuudrit meigipõhjana, mille nahaga kohandumine võtab paarkümmend minutit aega, tellisin 1. oktoobrini kehtivast kataloogist Avon Makeup Setting Spray jumestust fikseeriva sprei, mille sain vaid 2.99€ eest (pakkumine kehtib kui tellid samast kataloogist mis tahes muu toote, originaalhind 8€). See on lõhnatu ja väljub pihustist peene uduna. Kas see ka oma lubadusi täidab, ei oska ma veel öelda, sest olen seda spreid kasutanud vaid paar korda :)

Loomulikult jäi mu silm peatuma ka Avon Extra Lasting kreemlauvärvil toonis Totally Taupe (hind 1. oktoobrini 3.49€, tavahind 4.90€), sest mu armastus igasuguste taupe toonide vastu on lausa patoloogiline. Kuigi toon tundus potsikus liiga sädelev on see tegelikkuses hoopis kumav, sõrmedega pealekandes kerge ning katsudes pigem puuderjas kui kreemine. Peal püsib hommikust õhtuni, ei kogune vagudesse ja kokkuvõttes üllatas mind väga positiivselt oma hea kvaliteediga :)

Tallinna Torupilli Selveris märkasin müügil firmat Essence, millest olen üsna tihti positiivseid arvustusi kuulnud/näinud!

Kuna väga paljud tooted olid niigi ülisoodsa hinnaga toodetel lisaks 40% allahinnatud, veetsin selles letis päris tükk aega.

Valituks osutusid Essence Lash & Brow Gel Mascara geel, mida kasutan kulmude fikseerimiseks (ostsin täishinnaga 2.79€ eest). Ja see toimib!!! Kulmukarvad on õhtul samas kohas, kus ma need geeli abiga hommikul pigutasin :)

Huuleläigete osas veetsin veel eriti kaua aega ja valisin välja Essence XXXL Shine huuleläike toonis #24 Just Gorgeous (40% soodustusega hinnaks 1.19€, täishind 1.99€). Huultel on see läikiv, niisutav ega kleepu üldse, toon on samuti väga nunnu :) Annan sellele isegi odava pakendi andeks ja lähen varsti uute huuleläigete järele.

Lisaks tahan soetada Essence All About Matte Primer aluskreemi, mida nägin Chloe Morello Youtube'i meigiõpetuses. Kui mu mälu mind ei peta, siis ka see toode oli Selveris 40% soodustusega :)

Kas oled mõnda neist toodetest proovinud? Kuidas meeldivad? Mida soovitad Essence'ilt veel proovida? :)

Glow Iluõhtu "Puhtus ja elegants meigis"

This post will be mostly in Estonian because it's about a beauty night held by a local famous makeup studio Glow Make-up . They usually organise these beauty nights for their subscribers few times a year to introduce new products and makeup trends. There's only about 10 people in the group, you'll get drinks and snacks, discounts, a gift and one lucky participant can win a goodie bag. Something so perfect and girly on a Friday night :)

I've been to these two times before and have attended their 2-day make-up course. They have a large variety of more thorough make-up courses starting from those that last for a day up until to a pro courses. Once you finish their pro courses, you'll get a MUA licence.

I purchased only one product that night although I was so tempted to buy everything they had in their studio :D

I got Make Up For Ever Eyebrow Pencil in shade No 4 which is the perfect shade for my eyebrows (though it seems a bit reddish on the swatch) and it's very pigmented. You need to have a light hand with it :)

I also developed a new obsession with mineral foundation that's in a powder form. I have one at home and have been using it since that evening. And needless to say - absolutely loving it.

There will be a separate post about it :)

Eelmise reedel, 12. septembril korraldas Glow Make-up järjekordse iluõhtu, mille teemaks oli "Puhtus ja elegants meigis". 

Iluõhtuid korraldab Glow 3-4 korda aastas, et tutvustada uusi tooteid ja meigitrende. Registreerumine käib nende e-poe kaudu ning tasuda tuleb 10-eurone osavõtutasu, mis iluõhtul toimib toodete ostmisel ettemaksuna. Grupid on alati väikesed ja intiimsed - umbes 10 inimest. Saabudes pakutakse jooke ja suupisteid, räägitakse sellest, mis uudist ning viiakse läbi näidismeikimine.

Hiljem saab küsida nõu, proovida erinevaid tooteid ning osta erihinnaga pakutavaid kosmeetikume. Iga osaleja saab väikese kingi ning loosi tahtel saab üks õnnelik ka suurema kingikoti.

Ma olen varem käinud kahel sellisel üritusel ning ühel kahepäevasel meigikursusel.

Kõikide meigikooli kursustega saab tutvuda Glow kodulehel :)

Kingikotis oli peidus Kleraderm Antiage Face and Neck Restructuring Cream 5ml tester ning -15% kupong hoolitsusele või Kleradermi toote ostuks Glow Skin Studios.

Kuigi oleksin suurima heameelega ostnud suure kotitäie erinevaid uusi ja huvitavaid tooteid, piirdusin siiski vaid ühega, mida hädasti vaja oli.

Soetasin Make Up For Ever Eyebrow Pencil kulmupliiatsi toonis nr 4. See on täpselt minule sobiv külm hallikaspruun toon, mis on ülipigmenteeritud ning mida pealekandes tuleb olla ettevaatlik - kasutada tuleb kergeid lühikesi liigutusi ning selliselt on tulemus väga ilus.

Ühtlasi tekkis minus vastupandamatu soov proovida mineraalset jumestuspõhja puudri vormis ja üks selline on mul kodus juba olemas. Olen seda nüüd enam kui nädala igapäevaselt kasutanud ja tundub, et jumestuskreem jääb minust mõneks ajaks puutumata.

Sellest pikemalt muidugi eraldi postituses :)

Kas oled Glow Iluõhtutest varem kuulnud või mõnel osalenud? :)

NOTD: Essie Merino Cool with Under Where?



This time I paired my most favourite shade Essie's Merino Cool with their Under Where? on my ring finger. There are two coats of each on my nails covered with a coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast top coat.

I love how the lilac pulls purple shade out of Merino Cool :)

 

How do you like the combo? Would you wear it like this?



 

 

 

Sel korral ühendasin kaks lemmikut - all time favourite Essie küünelaki Merino Cool suvise lemmikuga Under Where?

Mõlemat lakki on küüntel kaks kihti ning pealislakina kasutasin Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat nagu alati :)

 

Kuidas selline kombo meeldib? Kas kannaksid seda ka ise?

 

New stuff from JOIK

JOIK is an Estonian natural cosmetics company founded in 2005 which products are handmade in Estonia using as natural products as possible.

My first obsession started with their scented soy wax candles - everyone can find a scent that's close to their hearts, they burn clean and nice and one candle is enough make my entire apartment smell divine. You can also reuse the glass the candle was in. I keep my liners, mascaras and other slim tubes in my candle glasses :)

 

JOIK is currently revamping their products by putting them in new packaging. Creams come in nice pump-bottles and face-masks in small pots which makes using them so much easier.

Also, they constantly come out with new products and lovely people from the company sent me two brand new products to try out - Radiance Improving Cranberry & Black Currant Facial Mask for dull and lifeless skin and Wild Berry Soap.

 

I haven't tried the handmade cold-process Wild Berry Soap yet but I can tell you - it really smells like wild berries and having it on my bathroom cabinet makes all of it smell like berries. Also, doesn't it look just so yummy? Lovely as a present and surely anyone can find a soap at their online-shop.

 

I tried the Radiance Improving Cranberry & Black Currant Facial Mask for dull and lifeless skin  once and first of all - thank you JOIK for putting your masks in these little and very convenient pots. I wasn't a big fan of the previous packaging :)

My skin isn't particularly dull or lifeless and only by using it once, I can't really say that I now look like a star :) But it felt nice on the skin and most importantly - didn't dry my skin out. I have been disappointed in many masks before because of them drying my skin out too much. This one didn't do that and I will use it again. As it dried, it became a little gritty and as I was washing it off, I used to exfoliate my skin with it and my pores actually did look cleaner afterwards. I will definitely write a more thorough review on it once I've tested it for a longer period of time or in one of my empties post (rather sooner than later :D ).

My first impressions are good and this mask is perfect for an at-home-spa-session for pampering yourself :)

 

You can find more information in English on JOIK on their website HERE and my reviews on some of their products HERE .

 

 

JOIK on ilmselt bränd, mida ühelegi eestlasele lähemalt tutvustada ei ole vaja :)
Minu armastus algas nende sojavaha küünaldest - imehead lõhnad, puhas põlemine ja taaskasutatavad klaasid, milles mina hoian oma silma-ja huulepliiatseid ja erinevaid väikseid kitsaid tuube.

 

JOIK on hetkel oma tooteid uutesse pudelitesse-topsidesse pakendamas ning iga natukese aja tagant tulevad nad välja uute toodetega.

Nii saadeti ka mulle proovimiseks kaks täiesti uut toodet - käsitsi valmistatud külmprotsess Metsamarjaseep ning jumet parandav Jõhvika ja mustsõstra näomask tuhmile ja elutule nahale.

 

Metsamarjaseepi (3.20€) pole ma veel proovinud kuid olen sellest marjasest lõhnast täielikus vaimustuses. Hetkel on see mu vannitoakapis ja kogu kapi sisemus lõhnab lihtsalt oivaliselt :) Ja kui tore see seep veel välja näeb! Hea kingitus endale või kallile inimesele. Seepide valikuga saab tutvuda nende veebipoes.

 

Jõhvika ja mustsõstra näomaski (5€) olen proovinud ühe korra. Kõigepealt, suur aitäh JOIK'ile uue pakendi eest. Kogu maski kasutamise ja kokkusegamise protsess on nüüd palju mugavam ja puhtam :)

Mask on näol mõnus ega kuivata seda liigselt. Kui kuivanud maski maha hakkasin pesema, oli see muutunud veidi teraliseks ja nii koorisin oma nahka pesemise ajal ka maskiga. Tulemuseks pehme ja mõnus nahk ning mulle tundub, et pooridki olid puhtamad. Kas mu nahk säravaks ja elavaks muutus, ei oska ma veel öelda. Veel meeldis ka see, et mu näonahk ei kiskunud ega muutunud liialt kuivaks pärast maski mahapesemist. Esmamulje on väga hea ning kindlasti kasutan maski ka edaspidi :)

 

Hetkel saab valikut vanades pakendites tooteid osta JOIK veebi-ja vabrikupoes soodushinnaga .
Minu arvustusi teiste JOIK toodete kohta, mida olen proovinud, saab lugeda SIIT .



Recent favourites...

Lately, I've been really busy and don't have a lot of time to get ready in the mornings. 

So, I've started to use less makeup and I've been reaching for all these fuss-free makeup products. Weirdly enough a lot of them are cream products :)

First of all - my Clarisonic Plus. I love the gentle exfoliation it provides and it also massages my skin and cleans it so that if I use toner or micellar water afterwards, there's not a trace of makeup left on my skin. I feel that it really does cleanse my skin thoroughly and I hope that after some time it will also help to improve my skin deep down :) I use it every other day and feel that this way it's not too harsh for me :)

One of the makeup products I actually never use are contour powders and bronzers :) But this Lancome Star Bronzer Sun-Kissed Bronzing Power is just the perfect shade to wear as an eyeshadow. It makes my eyes look so blue and bright. And it's matte, which is perfect :) For using as a bronzer, I feel that this one would look too orange in my skin tone (swatch in the middle). If I use an eyeshadow primer it also stays on the whole day :)

I've had my Oriflame Beauty Eyebrow Kit for a long time and I really like it. The only product I almost never touched from the palette is the wax on the bottom of the kit. But after filling my eyebrows in and using my finger to warm the wax a bit and then applying it, the wax makes my eyebrows stay put for the whole day. The only downside is that the wax looks quite yucky now and I don't like my makeup looking dirty :D

Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara in shade #01 Black is something I think I cannot live without anymore. It makes putting mascara on my bottom lashes so easy and clean plus the mascara doesn't smudge or flake during the whole time I'm wearing it. Love it!

All kind of cream products is my new obsession. It' just so easy to apply them especially with my fingers :)
I've been wearing the cream blusher from my Sleek Blush By 3 palette in shade Pink Lemonade every single day (swatch second from left). It's very long-wearing product that gives my cheeks a fresh flush during the day :)
I've been wearing Maybelline Color Tattoo 24H cream eyeshadow in shade #35 On and on Bronze very often (swatch second from right). It is a shimmery colour but on some days I quite like it. A more in-depth review on Color Tattoos will come soon :)
The other cream eyeshadow I've been loving recently and that has previously featured in my favourites is Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Cream Shadow in shade #25 Slate (swatch on the right). It's my favourite taupey grey matte shade and it truly is long wearing. I apply and blend it with my fingers which is very convenient when in a hurry :)
Surprisingly the lip product I've been reaching for most is Bellaoggi Tentazione lipstick pencil in shade #03 Candy Pink (swatch on the left). It was an impulse buy off the discount shelf. Ah, oh... it's just awesome. Matte soft pink shade that lasts a very very long time! This product proves that you don't always have to spend a fortune to get a really worthy product :)

Mu elutempo on viimasel ajal olnud ülimalt kiire - varane ärkamine ei jäta just kuigi palju aega meigi peale kulutada, seega on mul tekkinud hulk tooteid, mis aitavad paari minutiga hakkama saada.

Clarisonic Plus - see puhastab mu naha täiesti puhtaks! Kui ma pärast Clarisonic'u kasutamist oma näo tooniku või mitsellaarveega üle tõmban, on mu nahk täiesti puhas ja mingeid meigijälgi ei ole. Lisaks koorib see hellalt mu nahka ning masseerib seda. Kaifin! :D

Ma üldiselt ei kasuta kunagi ei kontuurimis- ega päikesepuudrit. Kuna mul see Lancome Star Bronzer Sun-Kissed Bronzing Power (värvinäidis keskel) sahtlis vedeles, proovisin seda lauvärvina ja ohhoooo! Mu hallid silmad muutuvad helesiniseks kui seda kasutan! Lisaks, lauvärvi aluskreemi kasutades püsib see peal terve päeva!

Oriflame Beauty Eyebrow Kit kulmupalett on mul kasutuses olnud juba terve igaviku ja see meeldib mulle väga. Ainus toode, mida ma sellest paletist praktiliselt puutunud polnud, oli kulmuvaha. Kuid kui seda sõrmede vahel veidi soojendada ja siis värvitud kulmudele kanda, kindlustab vaha selle, et kulmud püsivad seal, kus on nende koht, kogu päeva jooksul! :)

Alates hetkest kui hakkasin kasutama spetsiaalselt alumistele ripsmetele mõeldud Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara ripsmetušši toonis #01 Black ei kujuta ma oma elu selleta enam ette. Mugav pisike harjas muudab tušši pealekandmise kergeks ja puhtaks ning see ei liigu ripsmetelt kuhugi enne kui selle maha pesen. Fantastiline!

Kreemjad tooted on ajapuuduse tõttu muutunud asendamatuks. Sestap kasutan viimasel ajal oma Sleek Blush By 3 põsepunapaleti kreemjat ruuži (värvinäidis vasakult teine) kõige sagedamini. See püsib peal terve päeva ja annab mu näole terve jume :)
Kreemjatest lauvärvidest olen viimasel ajal kõige rohkem kasutanud Maybelline Color Tattoo 24H toonis #35 On and on Bronze (värvinäidis paremalt teine). See on üsna sätendav ja seega ei kanna ma seda igapäevaselt aga vastavalt tujule ikkagi piisavalt tihti. Eraldi arvustus Color Tattoo'dest tuleb üsna pea :)
Teine lemmik kreemjas lauvärv on imeilus hallikas taupe toon, mis on ka varasemalt lemmikutes listitud olnud. Tegemist on Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Cream Shadow lauvärviga toonis #25 Slate (värvinäidis paremal). Tõeliselt kauakestev lauvärv, mis ei vaja aluskreemi :)
Üllatavalt on mu viimase aja enimkasutatav huuletoode Bellaoggi Tentazione huulepulga pliiats toonis #03 Candy Pink (värvinäidis vasakul). Soetasin selle mingi suvalise sooduka ajal Selverist ja ohh! Nii ilus ja matt toon, mis kestab tunde ja tunde. Toode, mis tõestab, et ülihea tulemuse saavutamiseks pole alati vaja kulutada tervet varandust :)

Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque

I got Queen Helene The Original Mint Julep Masque about a month ago and have tried it for maybe five times since.

I must say that this face mask is very very good for the price :)

It promises to help dry up acne pimples, rinse away blackheads and shrink enlarged pores.

You're supposed to apply it generously on clean face and leave it on for about 15 minutes.

The consistency of this mask is very creamy and because of that applying it is easy. I also love that my skin doesn't feel extremely dry after using it as has happened before with some other clay masks. 

At first it tingles on my skin and if I have some minor skin injuries it might even sting a little bit. But nothing major and I actually like the tingling feeling :)

I also love the minty scent of it :)

"Luckily" I have a few breakouts at the moment which kinda hurt at first. After using the mask, they don't hurt almost at all anymore and my pores do look cleaner and blackheads lighter.

As I have combination skin, I would use it once a week. For ladies with oily skin or acne problems, I would suggest to use it twice a week.

Overall, I'm very happy with this mask and will repurchase once my 8oz will be empty :)

I got this mask in my recent iHerb haul for only $3.84. At the moment you can only get the sample size (2 oz; 56,7g for $1.40) of it on iHerb but I'm sure they'll stock up on it very soon.

If you haven't ordered from iHerb before then using the code LWH786 you can save up to $10 on your first order :)

Tellisin Queen Helene The Original Mint Julep Masque näomaski veidi enam kui kuu aega tagasi iHerbist. Ma olen üldiselt kogu maskibisessis üsna võhik, seega lootsin, et arvukad kiitvad netiarvustused paika peavad. Õnneks pidasid! :)

Mask lubab kuivatada aknepunne, puhastada ummistunud poore ja komedoone.

Maski tuleb kanda puhastatud näole ja jätta peale kuni 15 minutiks.

Esmalt meeldib mulle selle maski piparmündine lõhn. Teiseks ei kuivata see mu nahka nii nagu mitmed teised maskid teinud on. Kolmandaks näivad mu poorid tõesti puhtamad ja ka komedoonid on vähem märgatavad. Lisaks meeldib mulle ka see veidi õhetav tunne, mis maski peale kandes tekib :)

Mask ise on kreemja konsistentsiga, mis muudab selle pealekandmise väga mugavaks.

Oma segatüüpi nahaga kasutan seda maski korra nädalas. Probleemse ja rasuse nahaga daamid võiksid seda julgelt ka kaks korda nädalas kasutada :)

Kokkuvõtteks olen maskiga väga rahul. Ostsin selle juuli lõpus iHerbist vaid $3.84 eest. Hetkel on mask iHerbis saadaval vaid minisuuruses (56,7g, $1.40) kuid olen enam kui kindel, et üsna pea tuleb taas müüki ka täissuuruses maskituub :)

Kui sa pole varem iHerbist tellinud, siis kasutades koodi LWH786 võid oma esimeselt tellimuselt kokku hoida kuni $10 :)
