Empties #22

It's been months since I last did an empties post so let me show you my recent stash of trash :)

Weleda Baby Calendula Shampoo & Baby Wash - few months ago I switched 100% of my daughter's skin and haircare products to natural ones and have been using this 2in1 product on her hair and body since. It's very creamy, foams well, cleans well and her hair doesn't need conditioning after using it. Already have new bottle and will be repurchasing especially because this product is 100% natural.
Bourjois Healthy Mix foundation in #52 Vanilla - I really like this foundation and have had it many times. This shade suits me in colder months and I'm pretty sure that I'll repurchase it again.
IsaDora Brush Cleanser - I have a separate review on it HERE. I didn't like it for deep cleaning my makeup brushes because it didn't work that well but it works fine for spot cleaning and after washing my brushes with soap I liked using it for desinfecting my brushes since it has alcohol in it. Not sure if I'd repurchase though :)
e.l.f. High Definition Undereye Setting Powder - this is the first pot I've ever had and at first the glitter particles that are in the powder put me off of it. But I grew to loving it and when I heard that e.l.f. changed the powder so that there aren't any glitter in it I was happy to repurchase. And the rumours were true, the powder is now glitter free and I use it even more often than my NARS powder. I buy mine from iHerb and if you haven't shopped there before you can save up to $10 using my code LWH786.
Maybelline Instant Anti-Age concealer - I had such high hopes for this one because everybody was raving about it all over social media. It didn't have enough coverage for my dark blue under eye area but I used it up nevertheless. I liked using it instead of foundation on days that I really couldn't bother putting on full face of makeup. The wet consistency was perfect for that. Not gonna repurchase still.
Stenders Hydrating Wild Rose Facial Gel - it was a very nice and light moisturizer to use daily under makeup. Loved the consistency and the feel of it. Would repurchase:)
Catrice Liquid Camouflage concealer in #010 Porcellain - I have a full review on this concealer and I really love it til this day. Porcellain is perfect for colder months and right now I'm almost through 020 Light Beige. Super good coverage and I will definitely repurchase!
Oriflame The One 5-in-1 Wonderlash Mascara - I think this was the third or fourth tube of this mascara and I already have a new one. I love the wand and when it's been opened for a week or so, it gets even better. Plus it's super affordable while on sale :)
Oriflame The One Hypnotic Depth Mascara - this mascara was okay but nothing remarkable so I will stick to the one mentioned above from now on and will not experiment anymore :)
Turbliss Bioactive Firming and Toning Face Mask - this is an Estonian brand that uses peat in their products. I bought a small jar to try it out and unfortunately I'm not a big fan. Even though the packaging says that it's normal for your face to be red for a short while after using this mask, my face was bright red for half a day. So the next time I was ready to try this mask again, it was expired and I didn't dare to risk it.
Travalo - unfortunately mine broke somehow and I need to go and buy a new one because I find it really convenient to travel with or take perfume with you instead of carrying a big bottle around.

:)(:


Aeg on järjekordselt ette näidata hunnik tühje potsikuid :)

Weleda Baby saialille šampoon-dušikreem - mõned kuud tagasi otsustasin mini-me keha- ja juuksehoolduse vahetada loodusliku vastu ja see Weleda kaks ühes toode on väga mugav. See vahutab hästi, on kreemjas ja niisutav ning pole vaja kasutada juuksepalsamit. Juba on järgmine pudel kasutuses ja ilmselt ostan seda ka edaspidi :)
Bourjois Healthy Mix jumestuskreem toonis #52 Vanilla - ma isegi ei tea, mitmes pudel see mul eluajal olnud on aga kindlasti on see üks pikaajalisi lemmikuid. Toon 52 sobib mulle just külmemal aastaajal ja kindlasti ostan seda ka edaspidi :)
Isadora pintslipuhasjata - kirjutasin sellest tootest eraldi SIIN. Minu arvates sobib see pigem spot-cleaning'uks ja pärast mõne muu vahendiga pesemist pintslite desinfitseerimiseks. Minu jaoks jäi sellel tootel jõudu väheks, seega uuesti ilmselt ei ostaks...
e.l.f. High Definition Undereye Setting Powder - spetsiaalne puuder just silmade all kasutamiseks. Kui ma selle puudritopsi esmakordselt avasin, ei meeldinud mulle kopsakad säratükid, mis puudri sees olid. Mõnda aega ma seda ei kasutanud kuid võtsin uuesti ette ja kasutasin viimse grammini ära. Väga peene koostisega puuder ning nüüd on e.l.f. selle seest ka säratükid eemaldanud, mis teeb sellest täiusliku toote. Mina ostan seda iHerbist ja kui sa pole varem sellest veebipoest midagi ostnud, siis võid minu koodi LWH786 kasutades säästa kuni 10$.
Maybelline Instant Anti-Age peitekreem - väga ülehaibitud toode terves internetis ning see on ilmselt ka põhjus, miks ma nii jubedalt pettusin. See ei kata mu siniseid silmaaluseid ja on väga vedela/märja koostisega, mistõttu sobib see rohkem pigem jumestuskreemiks kui peitmiseks.
Stenders niisutav näogeel Metsik Roos - kerge geeljas koostis, mis niisutas nahka, imendus väga kiiresti ja sobis seetõttu hästi just meigi alla. Oma kerguse poolest sobibki pigem soojemal ajal kasutamiseks :)
Catrice Liquid Camouflage peitekreem - kirjutasin sellest peitekreemist SIIN. Siiani parim peitekreem oma väga tugeva katvuse poolest. Uus tuub juba peaaegu tühi ning kindlasti lähen ja ostan uuesti.
Oriflame The One 5-in-1 Wonderlash ripsmetušš - ülihea leid ning kohe kui see tuub otsa sai, ootasin ära järgmise sooduka ja tellisin kohe uue. Eriti heaks muutub see pärast umbes nädalast kasutamist. Kõige lemmikum osa on selle tuši hari, kus ühel pool olevad lühikesed harjased ulatuvad väga ripsmejuure lähedale ilma, et tervet laugu täis mäkerdaks :)
Oriflame The One Hypnotic Depth ripsmetušš - see oli üsna tavaline tušš, mis oli okei aga mingit hüpnotiseerivat sügavust mu pilk sellega ei saavutanud. Edaspidi jään siiski pigem ülalmainitud tuši juurde :)
TurBliss bioaktiivne turbamask probleemsele nahale - tahtsin juba ammu proovida turbamaski ja soetasin prooviks väikese tuubi TurBlissi näomaski. Toote kirjelduses öeldakse, et kerge punetus on normaalne ja taandub pärast maski mahapesemist kiiresti kuid minu nägu oli kirsipunane pool päeva. Selleks hetkeks kui julgesin maski uuesti proovida oli selle säilivusaeg juba läbi ning ei tahtnud enam riskida...
Travalo - mul on hästi kahju, et minu truu parfüümihoidik lõpuks katki läks. Travalo on väga mugav viis parfüümi kaasas kanda. Vanasti müüdi seda vaid Kaubamajas, nüüd leidsin selle kiire guugeldamise peale Lovertest.

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?

Gifts and haul / Ostud ja kingid

I'm back from my holiday and it's time to show you stuff I've got in about a month...
You can clearly see I am developing a dry shampoo addiction :D
iHerb haul #3
I ordered some stuff from iHerb again. I got Queen Helene The Original Mint Julep Masque which I haven't had the chance to try yet. I got it for $3.84. It promises to help dry up acne pimples, rinse away blackheads and shrink enlarged pores. Will let you know how it goes. You can get it HERE.
I also got Sibu Beauty Sea Buckthorn Cleansing Face and Body Bar. I haven't tried that one also but I already like the scent of it :) It was on sale and I got it for $1.19. You can order it HERE. I also got Yummy Earth Organic Fruit Snacks that were so delicious that we finished them very quickly. These have a special price for a limited time, so if you're interested, get them HERE.
If you haven't ordered from iHerb before then using the code LWH786 you can save up to $10 on your first order :)
Stuff from Poland
I visited Poland and the lovely city of Gdansk in the end of June for work and had only 15 minutes for shopping. So, I got myself NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss in #129 Beige. Unfortunately we don't have NYX in my country :( It's not sticky, smells like cherries but doesn't last a long time. The shade is lovely and I find myself reaching for it very often when I need a quick fix :)
And then I got two dry shampoos - Schwarzkopf Schauma Cotton Fresh Dry Shampoo and Dove Refresh+Care Dry Shampoo.
The Schauma one works very well but leaves a lot of white residue on my hair that's quite hard to brush out. That's why I use it at night before going to bed and wake up with hair looking fresh and volumized. The Dove dry shampoo is also very good - gives a lot of volume and keeps my hair looking clean. Plus it has a lovely floral scent. Both of them were very affordable, too :)
Random buys
I ordered some stuff from our local web shop Levelzone and got myself Batiste Dry Shampoo XXL Volume. Seems that I can't go without it anymore. Plus they have a sale until the end of July and I got it for a very nice price :)
Rexona Invisible Pure 48h anti-perspirant is a very good and efficient product and since there's 0% alcohol in it, it doesn't irritate my armpits. Plus it's very affordable.
Lirene Last Minute BodyBB fluid is my most recent buy and I'm loving it. It's body make-up balm which I have for fair complexion. It instantly makes my skin look tanned and hydrated. Love, love, love it!
Isadora makes a Brush Cleanser now and since I desperately needed to clean my brushes I decided to try it out. Since I got it only yesterday, I haven't used it yet but will let you know either here or on my Instagram page. 150ml costs 6.25€.
Gifts
I got two things from my sister - Sleek Blush BY3 in #369 Pink Lemonade. Very pigmented and nice colours that last all day and blend easily. The palette has 3 shades in it - 2 powder and 1 cream blusher. Kerastase Initialiste Advanced Scalp and Hair Concentrate comes very handy in hot weather to pamper my scalp and hair :)
Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gioia Eau de Parfum I was lucky enough to win in a giveaway held by lovely blogger Stella from Stellarium. This was just perfect timing because my own bottle got finished just few days ago. I couldn't be happier :)
Thank you for reading :)
Puhkuse tipphetk on möödas ning aeg tagasi blogilainele tulla :)
Olen viimase kuu jooksul päris palju tooteid kokku ahnitsenud. Kui neid pildistamise jaoks ritta ladusin, tõdesin, et vist peaks jälle paariks kuuks meigitoodete ostmisele pausi tegema :D
iHerb tellimus #3
Tellisin jälle iHerbist tooteid, mida pole varem kasutanud - Queen Helene The Original Mint Julep Masque näomaski sain  $3.84 eest. Ma pole seda veel proovinud kuid tahan kindlasti teada, kas see aitab kuivatada aknelisi punne, puhastada komedoonidest ja ahendada poore nagu pakendil kirjas. Tellida saab seda SIIT.
Sibu Beauty Sea Buckthorn Cleansing Face and Body Bar näoseep oli eripakkumises ja sain selle hinnaga $1.19. Ka seda toodet pole ma veel proovida jõudnud aga lõhn on sellel küll väga mõnus. Tellida saab SIIT. Veel tellisin Yummy Earth Organic Fruit Snacks kummikomme, mis olid niiii maitsvad, et pakk on ammuilma tühjaks söödud. Osta saab neid SIIT erihinnaga :)
Kui sa pole veel iHerb netipoest tellinud, siis kasutades koodi LWH786 saad soodustust kuni $10 oma esimeselt ostult :)
Ostud Poolast
Käisin juuni lõpus tööasjus Poolas, Gdanskis ning mul jäi umbes 15 minutit šoppamiseks. Krabasin kiirelt NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss huuleläike toonis #129 Beige. See ei kleepu, lõhnab kirsiselt ja selle toon on tagasihoidlikult kena . Paraku aga ei püsi see kuigi kaua peal. Ostsin selle umbes 9 euro eest.
Ostsin ka kaks kuivšampooni - Schwarzkopf Schauma Cotton Fresh Dry Shampoo ja Dove Refresh+Care Dry Shampoo.
Schauma šampoon teeb oma tööd hästi kuid sellest jääb päris kangekaelne valge kiht juustele, mida on üsna raske välja kammida. Sestap kasutan seda õhtul ja hommikul ärgates on juuksed puhtad ja kohevad. Maksis umbes 3 eurot. Dove šampoon on samuti väga hea - tekitab koheselt puhtemate juuste efekti ja annab palju kohevust. Lisaks lõhnab väga mõnusalt. Hind oli sel umbes 5-6 eurot.
Erinevad ostud
Levelzone veebipoe sooduka ajal tellisin endale Batiste Dry Shampoo XXL Volume. Tundub, et selleta ma enam elada ei suuda ja ka soodne hind ajendas ostma. Hetkel on nende e-poes ka soodukas käimas, nii et soovitan uurima minna :)
Rexona Invisible Pure 48h anti-perspirant on väga tõhus ja kuna selles pole alkoholi, ei ärrita see ka mu nahka. Hind oli alla 2 euro.
Lirene Last Minute BodyBB fluid on mu hiljutine leid ja ma lihtsalt armastan seda toodet. Tegemist on nn keha meigiga - kreem annab nahale ilusa jume ja niisutab hästi. Minu oma on mõeldud heledale nahale ja valikus on ka medium tooni kreem. Mina ostsin selle Selverist 9,50 euro eest kuid Prismas nägin seda pea kolm eurot soodamalt. Lirene tooteid saab tellida ka MG Beauty e-post, kus hetkel on paljudele Lirene toodetele soodukas.
Isadora Brush Cleanser pintslipuhastaja ostsin seetõttu, et kiiresti oli vaja ja Kaubamajja MACi letti pole mahti olnud minna. Ma pole seda veel kasutanud aga kohe kui ära proovin, annan teada, kuidas töötab kas siin blogis või mu Instagrami lehel. 150ml maksab Ideaalkosmeetikas 6.25€.
Kingid
Õelt sain kingiks Sleek Blush BY3 toonis #369 Pink Lemonade. Paletis on 2 puuder- ja 1 kreemjas põsepuna. Toonid on väga ilusad, kestavad kaua ja on hästi pigmenteeritud. Sleek on üleüldse üks väga hea bränd, milles ma seni pole pettuma pidanud. Kerastase Initialiste Advanced Scalp and Hair Concentrate on sellise päikese ja kuumaga väga vajalik, et oma peanahk ja juuksed korras hoida:)
Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gioia Eau de Parfum võitsin ma armsa Stella Stellariumi blogist. Ajastus oli lihtsalt suurepärane, sest üleeile piserdasin oma Gioiast viimased piisad välja :)
Aitäh, et jaksasid lõpuni lugeda :)
