Last haul from 2015

Before I start writing about new beauty things in 2016 allow me to show you few products I got in the end of 2015.

First are the things I got from our annual beauty fair where I went with a strict shopping list (LINK).

Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat is my all time favourite holy grail product. I have tried many other similar products but nothing compares to this one. I can literally do whatever after two minutes of coating my nails with it!

Since all of the Living Proof products for my hair type were sold out I got this gigantic bottle (800ml) of Tahe Botanic Cleansing Total Shampoo which is meant for deep cleaning your scalp and hair. Unfortunately I can't use this shampoo anymore because for the first time in many many years I got dandruff from using it.

Blendercleanser Solid soap bar for cleaning makeup brushes is so fast and effective, it blows my mind! Especially for cleaning my foundation and cream product brushes. I do use an alcohol based product for spot cleaning but if I need my brushes squeaky clean, this little soap bar is the key! Yes, it is pricey but it will last you quite a while.

Stenders came out with three EDT fragrances in November last year and were so nice to let me pick my favourite of the three. I picked Northern Light which smells really fresh and has notes of lemon, passion fruit, mango and musk. I have received many compliments wearing it so I suggest you take a sniff next time you're around a Stenders counter :) It also lasts quite well on my skin.

MADARA is another Latvian brand that I like and during their 40% off sale I ordered Vitalising Soap and Sun Flower Golden Beige Tinting Fluid travel size product to try it out. The body wash had a nice zesty scent to it so I liked to use it in the mornings. It wasn't anything super remarkable but then again it's just a soap :) The tinting fluid is a tinted moisturiser that evens out the skin tone and gives it a nice glow. I suggest you subscribe to their newsletter so you'll be notified when they have sales next time and if you're interested in organic skincare you can try out some new stuff :)

Mõtlesin teha kiire ülevaate asjadest, mille veel eelmisel aastal soetasin ja seejärel alustada uute 2016. aasta postitustega :)

Messile Ilu Sõnum läksin eelmisel korral kindla ostunimekirjaga (LINK) ning soetasin oma kõige-kõige lemmikuma küünelaki kiirkuivataja Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat. Ma olen proovinud lugematu arv erinevaid kiirkuivatajaid aga Seche Vite vastu ei saa minu silmis neist ükski.
Kuna minu juuksetüübile mõeldud tooted olid Living Proof letis juba otsas, soetasin selle ülisuure pudeli Tahe Cleansing Total sügavpuhastavat šampooni. Kahjuks ei saa ma seda enam kasutada, sest üle saja aasta tekkis mulle juustesse kõõm.
Pintslite puhastamiseks ostsin Blendercleanser Solid seebi, millega sain kaasa ka väikese täitepakendi. See seep on tõesti tõhus ja kulub seda ka väga vähe :) Soetada saab seda näiteks SIIT, SIIT või SIIT.
Eelmise aasta novembris tuli Stenders välja kolme uue tualettveega, millest nad lahkelt lubasid mul välja valida enda lemmiku. Mind kõnetas enim värske Northern Light, mida kandes saan alati komplimente. Hetkel on need lõhnaveed Stendersis väga hea hinnaga, nii et soovitan kiirelt oma sammud poodi seada ning oma ninaga asi üle vaadata :)
Madara teeb tihtilugu oma veebipoes kuni 40% soodukaid, nii et ühel sellisel soetasin endale Vitalising Soap dušigeeli ja reisisuuruses Sun Flower Golden Beige Tinting Fluid tooniva näokreemi. Kehaseep oli väga mõnusa ja värske lõhnaga, mida mulle meeldis kasutada just hommikuse virgutajana. Tooniva päevakreemiga saab nahatooni ühtlustada ning see annab kena Kuma. Väga hea näonahaga inimesed võivadki seda kasutada jumestuskreemi asemel, muul juhul sobib see hästi ka jumestuskreemi alla :) Neile, kes huvituvad looduslikumast kosmeetikast, soovitan end Madara uudiskirja saajaks registreerida. Nii jõuab info soodukate kohta kiirelt postkasti :)

Did you know? #5 How to save money in 2016

New Year has arrived and as per usual most of us make new year resolutions :)

I bet more than half of you (as well as myself) have promised to be more financially secure and not spend as much to save for fulfilling our dreams :)

Here are some tips and suggestions that I have tried out for the past few months which I believe have really helped me to get my spendings under control :)

My usual beauty-related posts will be coming soon after this one, so don't worry about this blog becoming something totally different from what you've been used to ;)

Create a monthly budget - write down all of your fixed incomes and all monthly expenses (such as rent, water, electricity, car, internet etc etc). That way you'll know how much money you have left so you can divide it to weekly spendings. You will know exactly how much spare money you have and you are less likely to swipe your card ever so often without thinking and can calculate the amount of money you can put away for your dream vacation or designer bag :) Don't forget to include a little treat in your monthly budget for yourself just so you won't get frustrated ;)

Do the big shop - make an inventory in your kitchen and fridge. Write down a shopping list of groceries you need to buy and stock up 1-2 times a month. Try to stay away from grocery shops at other times and buy only the stuff you have on your shopping list. It's also good to read all the cooking books you have to get inspiration which will help you plan your menus :)

Give a fixed amount of pocket money for kids - in the beginning of each month give your kids a fixed amount of pocket money. Every time you take your kids with you to the shop let them take their money with them and buy stuff they want with their own money. It will free you from additional spending on toys and candy and will teach your kids to value and count their pocket money.

Clear out your closet - make an inventory in your closet and throw away, give to your friends or charity items that you haven't worn in years. I did the big clear out last August and gave 70% of my clothes to charity. Now I know that all of the pieces I have in my closet suit me and I will wear them time and time again. This will also give you an idea which items you are lacking in your wardrobe and need to buy. (Capsule wardrobe is a great way to get inspired, google it :) )

Shop on sales - it is very easy to find out when your favourite shops usually have huge sales (just google it). If you've made an inventory in your closet and found out that for example you need a new warm jacket, I bet all the shops will have a sale just after Christmas and New Year or in the end of winter season (which is around January or February in Europe). Google the sales and put a reminder on your calendar when that happens :)

Shop your makeup stash - if you are a makeup fanatic like me, you'll have drawers full of stuff. Yes, we all have our daily favourites but it's useful to rummage through your makeup drawers and rediscover products you once loved but had totally forgotten about. I, myself, discovered Lancôme eyeshadow today that I had totally forgotten about having :) Before you run to the shop to buy another eyeshadow or highlighter, go through the things you have buried deep in your drawers :)

Even though it's not relevant at the moment I think it's useful to share my tips on how to not go crazy during Christmas time LINK .

Hopefully you found some useful tips from this post and if you have any good suggestions of your own, please share them in the comments below :)

Rõõmsat ja edukat alanud aastat meile kõigile!

Nagu ikka, anname me uue aasta alguses iseendale mitmeid lubadusi ja vähemalt pooled meist (mina sealhulgas) lubame endale, et sel aastal oleme oma rahaasjades hoolsamad ja säästame rohkem kui varem :)

Siin on mõned nipid, mida ma ise viimastel kuudel kasutanud olen ning loodan, et neist on kasu ka teile :)

Ja olge mureta, selle blogi tavapärased iluteemalised postitused on ka peagi tulemas :)

Koosta igakuine elarve - pane kirja kõik kuu kindlad sissetulekud ning püsikulud (üür, kommunaalid, liisingud, kindustused jne jne). Niimoodi on sul kohe silme ees kui palju vaba raha sul olemas on. Jaga see nädalateks ning usu mind, sa välgutad oma pangakaarti palju vähem kui tavaliselt kui sul on koguaeg kuklas teadmine mitu eurot sa nädalas kulutada tohid ning saad välja arvutada mitu eurot saad säästa oma unistuse puhkusereisiks või disainerkäekoti jaoks :) Ära unusta oma kuu eelarvesse planeerida endale ka mõni väike preemia, seda selleks, et sa ei frustreeruks :) 

Ära käi iga päev toidupoes - vaata üle oma kapid ja külmik ning koosta nimekiri vajalikest toiduainetest. Käi suuremal toidušoppingul kord-kaks kuus (vastavalt vajadusele ja pere suurusele) ning muul ajal püüa toidupoes käimisest hoiduda (loomulikult peab leiba, piima, puu-ja köögivilju tihedamini ostma kuid suures plaanis aitab raha olulisel määral kokku hoida see kui poodi iga päev sisse ei põika). Alati on hea ka ammutada inspiratsiooni kõikidest neist kokaraamatutest, mille sa endale aegade jooksul kokku oled ostnud ning koostada retseptide alusel nädala menüü ja ostunimekiri:)
Fikseeritud summa taskurahaks - kui sul on lapsed, lepi nendega kokku konkreetne summa, mille nad kuus taskurahaks saavad. Iga kord kui oled sunnitud lapsed poodi kaasa võtma, tuleta neile meelde, et nad oma taskuraha kaasa võtaksid. See vabastab su ebavajalikust kommi-ja mänguasja ostmisest ning lapsed õpivad seeläbi arvutamist, säästmist ning raha väärtust :)
Revideeri oma garderoob - vaata kriitilise pilguga üle kogu oma garderoob ning viska minema, anna sõbrannadele või anneta heategevuseks riided, mida sa pole juba aastaid kandnud. See annab sulle selge ülevaate asjadest, mis sul olemas on ning ka sellest, millised vajalikud riideesemed sinu kapist puuduvad. Ma eemaldasin umbes 70% oma kappide sisust eelmise aasta augustis ning nüüd on mul alles vaid riided, mis mulle tõesti sobivad, selga mahuvad ja mida ma kannan üha uuesti ja uuesti.
Ostle allahindluste ajal - suuremate kaupluste allahindlused on enam-vähem teada juba aasta aega ette, seega tee google'i abil uurimustööd ja pane oma kalendrisse kirja, millal tuleks soodukaid rünnata :)
Sul on väga palju kosmeetikat - kui sa oled samasugune meigifanaatik nagu mina, siis on sul riiulid ja sahtlid täis erinevaid ilutooteid, mille olemasolu oled sa juba ammu unustanud. Seega, vaata kõigepealt üle, mis sul olemas on ja ma olen enam kui kindel, et see huulepulk või põsepuna, mida sa reklaamis nägid, on sul tegelikult juba olemas :)

Kuigi jõulud on juba möödas, arvan, et mälu värskenduseks võiksid lugeda ka minu nippe, kuidas kinkide ostmine vähem stressi tekitaks (LINK).

Loodan, et leidsid sellest postitusest midagi kasulikku ning kui sul on endal häid nippe raha säästmiseks, ära ole kade ning jaga neid kommentaarides :)

Empties #20 pt 2

Long time no see, my lovely readers!

Even though it's been almost three months since my last post I am so glad to see that you still come and check if I'm still around :) Thank you from the bottom of my heart for that :)

Here's the promised part two of my last year's empties and the first one of 2016 will come soon :)

Kiehl's Actively Correcting & Beautifying BB Cream in Light - I have been loving this bb cream from the first moment I tried it from a sample. This is my second empty tube of this product which means that I really do love and recommend it. It will even out your skin tone and make it smooth. It can also be used instead of foundation if your skin is good in general. The big bonus is the high SPF which makes it my number one product in the summertime :) Will definitely get a new tube next summer.

Garnier Miracle Skin Cream sample - I got this sample with a magazine and I think it is perfect to lightly even out the skin tone for those whose skin is clear. If you have a good skin and just want to make it look less dull, this is the product for you :)

Maybelline FitMe Concealer in shade #10 - this concealer has yellow undertone which means that I cannot use it under my eyes. It does work really nice on blemishes but to be honest I only use concealer under my eyes to cover up dark circles and this shade did no good for that. I love this concealer in shade #15 which has pink undertone and always make sure to have it in my collection.

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in shade #Light 2 Vanilla - this concealer is my dream come true! It covered up my dark under eye area, didn't crease nor oxidise. I did notice that in the end it wasn't as creamy as it used to be, so this product really does expire after the deadline. So I suggest to keep an eye on the best before date :) If they'd sell it in my country, I would repurchase it over and over again :)
L'Oréal Lumi Magique illuminating pen - I would say that it is a nice cheaper alternative for YSL Touche Eclat if you pick the right shade. Mine was a bit too dark so I could only use it during summer. I still liked it a lot and would repurchase the lightest shade to use as an under eye highlighter :)
Eveline Big Volume Explosion mascara - they sell it here in local supermarkets and this brand is very cheap. The mascara was okay for everyday use but the wand was ridiculously huge so solely for that reason I wouldn't buy it again. Also didn't notice it making my lashes explode with volume.
Avon Colortrend Boost It waterproof mascara - I bought it to take with me on my vacation to Spain last July. It was somewhat waterproof - it didn't melt down my face in 40C heat but I wouldn't go swimming wearing it. Also it gave my lashes colour and a bit of definition but no volume nor length.
Real Techniques stippling brush - I think this was my first ever RT brush I got at least five years ago. Last time I washed it, all the bristles came out at once and even though I pushed them back, after it was dry the bristles started to shed heavily. This had never happened before and RT brushes rarely ever shed so I guess I just overused this brush :D I love to use this brush especially for my cream blush and foundation and I already have two of these brushes back in my collection.
Sierra Bees organic cocoa butter lip balm - this lip balm was very nice and moisturising, smelled lovely and made my lips soft. Also, it's constantly very affordable on iHerb. I plan on buying the variety pack next time I make an order. (p.s. If you haven't ordered from iHerb.com before you can save up to $10 on your first order using my discount code LWH786)

I also managed to finish another perfume which I am very sorry about.
DKNY Be Delicious is one of my favourites because it's just so fresh. I love it especially during spring and summer. I will definitely repurchase it in the future if it's still on the market. Read more on the notes HERE.
Even though Kiehl's is best known for their skincare I suggest you take a sniff on their perfumes too. This Vetiver & Black Tea eau de toilette sample made me want to get the full size. Notes are pretty simple - Haitian vetiver, Ceylon black tea, pepper and woods which makes the blend of it very pleasant for my nose :)

Thank you for staying until the very end :)
I promise to get back on track and post more frequently again from now on :)

Kuigi viimasest postitusest on juba ligi kolm kuud möödas, on mul hea meel näha, et külastate jätkuvalt mu blogi. Suur aitäh selle eest! :)

Siin siis lubatud teine osa eelmise aasta tühjadest potsikutest ning õige pea lisandub esimene 2016 empties postitus :)

Kiehl's Actively Correcting and beautifying BB cream toonis Light - see on juba teine tühjaks saanud tuub ning minu vaieldamatu lemmik just suvel, sisaldades SPF 50. See ühtlustab nahatooni ja silub seda ning hea näonahaga inimesed saavad seda BB kreemi edukalt kasutada ka jumestuskreemi asemel. Saadaval Tallinna Kaubamaja Kiehls'i letis, kuhu soovitan teinekord niisamagi sisse põigata - Kiehl'si neiud on lahked tegema tasuta nahatesti ning andma kaasa ka sämpleid sundimata midagi kohe ostma :) Konkreetne bb kreem maksab tsipake alla 30€.

Garnier Miracle Skin Cream tester - sobib hea näonahaga inimestele nahatooni ühtlustamiseks muutes naha elavamaks :)
Maybelline FitMe peitekreem toonis #10 - need peitekreemid on maailmakuulsad ning põhjusega palju kiidetud. Kuigi see kollaka alatooniga nr 10 mulle ei sobinud, siis roosa alatooniga nr 15 on mul ALATI meigiarsenalis, et oma tumedaid silmaaluseid maskeerida :)
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer peitekreem toonis Light 2 Vanilla - minu absoluutne lemmik. See on kreemjas, ülihea katvusega, ei kogune kortsukestesse ning kui see puudriga kinnitada, püsib peal terve päeva. Kui see oleks Eestis poest kergesti kättesaadav, jääks see igaveseks minu meigikotti. Selle peitekreemi puhul tuleb aga kindlasti jälgida säilivusaega, sest lõpupoole muutub konsistents veidi kuivemaks ning selle kasutamine pole siis enam nii mugav kui äsja tuubi avades :)
L'Oréal Lumi Magique valgustpeegeldav peitekreem - see on minu arvates YSL Touche Eclat odavam alternatiiv ning valides õige tooni toimib nii korrektori kui valgustpeegeldava jumestuspulgana. Minul oli veidi liiga tume toon, mistõttu sain seda kasutada vaid suvel kuid kõige heledam roosaka alatooniga pulk toimiks mu sinistel silmaalustel vägagi hästi :)
Eveline Big Volume Explosion ripsmetušš - ostsin selle ripsmetušši mingist toidupoest väga soodsa hinna tõttu. See on tavaline igapäevane tušš, mis ei anna erilist pikkust ega lopsakust kuid selle naeruväärselt hiiglaslik harjas on see, mis mind edaspidi sellest ripsmetušist kaarega mööda käima sunnib :)
Avon Colortrend Boosti It veekindel ripsmetušš - ostsin selle läinud suvel puhkusele minnes ning kuigi seegi ei andnud erilist lopsakust ja pikkust, ei voolanud see ripsmetelt mööda nägu alla ka 40-kraadises kuumuses. Päris vette sukelduda ma sellega siiski ei soovita.
Real Techniques stippling pintsel - see oli esimene RT pintsel, mille ma aastaid tagasi ostsin. Viimase pesu ajal tulid kõik pintslikarvad korraga pesast lahti ning kuigi ma need tagasi surusin, hakkas pintsel kuivanult ikkagi karvu ajama. Kuna tavaliselt seda RT pintslitega kunagi ei juhtu, arvan, et see konkreetne isend oli lihtsalt aastatega oma aja ära elanud. Mul on juba kaks samasugust soetatud ning kasutan seda peamiselt kreemja põsepuna või jumestuskreemi pealekandmiseks :)
Sierra Bees organic cocoa butter huulepalsam - ülimõnus ja hästi lõhnav soodne huulepalsam, mis niisutas ja muutis huuled pehmeks. iHerb'is on neile väga tihti soodukad ning oma järgmisele tellimusele lisan kindlasti ka nende variety packi'i :) (p.s. Kui sa pole varem iHerb.com tellinud, siis kasutades minu sooduskoodi LWH786 void saada kuni 10$ soodustust).

Seekord suutsin tühjaks teha ka ühe oma lemmikutest parfüümidest - DKNY Be Delicious. See on nii värske ja mõnus, et mul on suur kiusatus minna ja see kohe endale uuesti osta, sest see on just kevad-suvisel hooajal üks mu esimesi valikuid. Lõhnanootide kohta saad lähemalt lugeda SIIT. Seda parfüümi saab soetada näiteks SIIT .
Kuigi Kiehl's on enamasti tuntud oma suurepäraste nahahooldustoodete poolest, soovitan kindlasti lähemalt tutvuda ka nende parfüümidega. Vetiver & Black tea tualettvesi on järjekordne avastus, mille sooviksin pärast testeri proovimist kindlasti enda parfüümikollektsiooni lisada. 30ml suurus maksab Tallinna Kaubamaja Kiehl'sis ligi 30€.

Aitäh, et lõpuni vastu pidasid ning järgmiste kohtumisteni :)

Empties #20 pt I

Even though all of these items are long gone into the trash, I still want to talk about why or if I'd repurchase them. I will break this into two parts because it's been ages since my last empties post and nobody would manage to read all of it in one go :D

Hair & body

Rexona Invisible pure 0% alcohol anti-perspirant  - this anti-perspirant stick really did its job very well and the scent wasn't overpowering. It's affordable and effective so I would repurchase :)

Avon Senses Romantic Garden of Eden shower gel - it had a sweet floral scent, made me clean and didn't dry my skin out. What else would you want from a body wash, right?

Redken Blonde Glam shampoo - I really, really, really liked this shampoo a lot. I didn't even feel the need for a conditioner. Love it and would repurchase it any minute but it's been discontinued :(

Garnier Fructis Thick&Gorgeous Fortifying conditioner - this conditioner was okay but nothing special. I didn't notice any effect on my hair that's promised on the bottle, so I wouldn't buy it again.

Oriflame Nature Secrets Mint&Raspberry anti-perspirant - this roll-on deodorant was also very effective and I can't even count how many of these I've used up in my life. One of my favourites which I will always repurchase.

Batiste Dry Shampoo in Cool&Crisp Fresh and Clean&Classic Original - I always have at least one bottle of Batiste dry shampoo in the house so don't be too surprised to see one in every empties' post :) I liked the Original version more, it seemed to be more effective than the Cool&Crisp one. I already have the original version repurchased :)

Face & eyes

Oriflame Feet Up Fresh berries & raspberry foot scrub - I honestly don't know why foot scrub is on the same picture as face and eyes products but yeah, let it be :D This scrub was a gel with scrubbing particles in it. I didn't like it because there were not enough scrubbing particles and so it was too mild if not to say completely useless. Not buying that one again.

Premier Eye Serum - I bought it last year during our annual beauty fair. It took ages to massage in and makeup didn't sit on it at all. So I started to use it only at night but still it took too long and I didn't see any visible results. I would rather spend my 80€ on something else next time.

Collagen Essence Facial Tissue Mask with Cucumber - they say it's moisturizing, purifying and soothing. This was my first experience with tissue masks and to be honest, I didn't find it as satisfying as usual clay or peel-off face masks. Also I didn't notice a purifying effect and even though my face was covered with soaking wet cloth my skin didn't feel extremely hydrated after using it. Probably will not repurchase.

JOIK Refreshing Peppermint & Green Tea facial mask - this one is still in the old packaging and since it was expired I had to throw it away. I'm not a big fan of masks that I have to mix myself but I actually liked the effect of this mask so I would repurchase it again in the future. 

United Exchange Face Cleansing strips - these strips are quite good and effective but you should be careful not to leave them on for too long because removing the strips will get rather painful. There are 3 strips in the pack and I managed to use them around my nose area not on my chin and forehead as the picture on the packaging suggest. I would repurchase these again and the affordable price of these is pure bonus :)

Vichy Idealia Eye Contour Idealizer - I liked this eye cream a lot. It's moisturizing but at the same time perfect under makeup. I also liked the applicator and that it comes in a tube. I think my wrinkles around my eyes appeared less visible so definitely a product I will buy again in the future.

P.S. If you're about to order from iHerb for the first time, use my code LWH786 to get up to $10 off your order :)

Kuigi kõik need potsikud on juba ammu prügikastis, olen ikkagi võlgu postituse oma viimaste kuude jooksul tühjaks saanud toodetest. Kuna taarat on kogunenud väga palju, kirjutan seekord kahes osas ja esimesena keha, juuste, näo ja silmatoodetest.

Juuksed & keha

Rexona Invisible pure 0% alcohol anti-perspirant - see pulkdeodorant oli väga efektiivne ja tagasihoidliku lõhnaga, mis kuidagi ei häirinud. Hea toode, mille soetaksin ilmselt uuesti, boonuseks hea hind :)

Avon Senses Romantic Garden of Eden dušigeel - see dušigeel lõhnas magusalt ja lilleliselt, pesi puhtaks ega kuivatanud nahka. Midagi rohkemat ma ühelt kehaseebilt ei ootagi, sega igati väärt uuesti soetamist :)

Redken Blonde Glam šampoon - ma tõesti nautisin selle šampooni kasutamist ning isegi ei tundnud vajadust palsami järele. Kahjuks seda sarja enam ei toodeta kuid kui seda kuskil veel müügil oleks, tormaksin kohe uue pudeli järele.

Garnier Fructis Thick&Gorgeous Fortifying palsam - mitte millegi poolest eriline palsam, mis minu juustele pakendil lubatud efekti ei andnud. Seega jääb see sari edaspidi minust poeriiulitele.

Oriflame Nature Secrets Mint&Raspberry anti-perspirant - roll-on deodorant, mida olen juba lugematu arv kordi tühjaks kasutanud ning kindlasti ostan ka edaspidi. Hea lõhnaga ja väga efektiivne toode.

Batiste Dry Shampoo Cool&Crisp Fresh ja Clean&Classic Original kuivšampoon - mul on alati kodus vähemalt üks pudel Batiste kuivšampooni, seega ei maksa imestada, et igas järgmises empties postituses see jälle olemas on. Mulle meeldis rohkem Original versioon, oli tõhusam kui Cool&Crisp, seega viimast ma enam ei ostaks ja uus pudel Original'i on mul juba kodus olemas :)

Nägu & silmad

Oriflame Feet Up Fresh berries & raspberry jalakoorija - mul pole õrna aimugi, miks jalakoorija on samal pildil näotoodetega :D Selle jalakoorija näol on tegemist geeliga, milles koorivad osakesed. Minu arvates oli selle toote efekt nullilähedane, sest koorivaid osakesi oli liiga vähe. Rohkem ei osta.

Premier Eye Serum - selle seerumi ostsin eelmisel aastal Ilumessilt. Seerumi parima efekti saavutamiseks tuleb seda pikka aega silma ümbrusesse masseerida. Meigi alla ei sobinud see üldse ja kogu kasutamise protsess oli liiga aeganõudev, lisaks ei näinud ma ka mingit erilist efekti. Edaspidi kulutan need 80€ mõne teise toote peale :(

Collagen Essence Facial Tissue Mask with Cucumber - see oli minu esimene kogemus kangasmaski kasutamisel. Ma ei saaks öelda, et see mulle rohkem meeldiks kui klassikaline savi- või kilemaski kasutamine. Pakil lubatakse niisutavat, rahustavat ja puhastavat efekti. Ma kahjuks ei tajunud nähtavat puhastavat efekti ja kuigi mu nägu oli kaetud läbimärja riidega, ei tundnud ma pärast maski kasutamist, et nahk oleks ülemäära rohkem niisutatud. Esmakordse kasutamise järel ma seda rohkem ei soetaks.

JOIK värskendav näomask rohelise tee ja piparmündiga - see mask oli mul veel vanas pakendis ja pidin sellest loobuma põhjusel, et selle säilivusaeg oli juba möödunud. Kuigi ma ei armasta eriti maske, mida pean ise kokku segama, meeldis selle maski efekt mulle väga. Seega olen valmis seda uuesti soetama ja uued pakendid on ka mitu korda mugavamad kui see vana versioon :)

United Exchange Face Cleansing strips - pakis on kolm poore puhastavat "kleepsu", mida mina kasutasin nina ümbruses mitte laubal ja lõual nagu pilt pakendil soovitab. Kleebised on üsna efektiivsed pooride puhastamisel kuid tuleb hoolikalt jälgida, et kleeps liiga pikaks ajaks nahale ei jää, sest siis on selle eemaldamine väga valus. iHerb'is on see ka tavahinnaga väga soodne, seega oma järgmise tellimusega lisan need kindlasti oma ostukorvi.

Vichy Idealia Eye Contour Idealizer - mulle väga meeldis see silmakreem nii mugava pakendi kui ka niisutava ja peenete kortsukese vähemmärgatavaks muutmise tõttu. Kindlasti toode, mida ostaksin uuesti, sest see sobis imehästi ka meigi all kasutamiseks :)

P.S. Kui hakkad esimest korda iHerb'ist tellima, kasuta koodi LWH786 ja saad oma ostult kuni 10$ soodustust :)

10 years of Flowerbomb

Viktor&Rolf fragrance called Flowerbomb was first introduced to the world 10 years ago! Congratulations!!!

I discovered this wonderful, full, potent, mature and very feminine scent two years ago and it has haunted me since.

I think that this perfume is very black and white - you either love it or hate it.

I'm the one obsessed with it and it kills me that I still don't have it in my collection!

This perfume is exactly what it says - a flowerbomb - including jasmine, rose, orchid, freesia and patchouli.

If you haven't heard of it or ever smelled it, I strongly suggest you go and take a sniff!

It's marvellous!

pic from HERE

Viktor&Rolf'i parfüüm Flowerbomb on saanud 10 aastaseks!
Mina avastasin selle lõhna enda jaoks kaks aastat tagasi ja see on mind siiani kummitanud. Äkki soetan selle endale lõpuks jõulukingiks? :)

Flowerbomb on väga tugev, tummine, naiselik lõhn, mis nagu nimigi ütleb, pakatab lilledest. Parfüümist leiad jasmiini, roosi, orhidee, freesia ja patšuli noote.

Minu arvates on Flowerbomb üsna must-valge lõhn - seda kas armastatakse või vihatakse. Mina kuulun vaieldamatult esimeste hulka :)

Kui sa pole selle parfüümiga tuttav, soovitan minna poodi ja nuusutada :)

Haul: few things from Oriflame

This haul is rather small and might not be very exciting but I'll show what I recently got anyway :)

Oriflame's Milk & Honey Gold range is my second favourite from the brand after their Mint & Raspberry one. The scent of Milk & Honey products really does smell like milk and honey combined and makes me feel warm and cosy (weird, huh :D ). I especially love these products during autumn/winter time :)

This time I got a moisturising shower cream and creamy soap bar. I would love the shower cream to be a tiny bit "creamier" but it's still a good one. I thought I'd try and see how long would a bar of soap last me because I feel that I run out of liquid soaps too fast. I will be measuring the time of use for this bar :)

I also ordered The One 5-in-1 Wonderlash mascara. It has a nice skinny rubber wand which makes it very easy to use and I'm less likely to smudge the mascara all around my eyes :) (Here's a trick for you on how to correct the mascara mistakes - LINK). This mascara doesn't give a lot of thickness but that can be achieved with a few coats. I'd give this mascara 4 out of 5 :)

I think The ONE Colour Unlimited Eye Shadow Sticks are rather new and me being a huge eyeshadow sticks' fan just had to order two shades that were missing from my collection :) I got Mauve Lava (swatch on the left) which is a "taupey" purple shade and Charcoal Dusk (swatch on the right) which is dark grey. I haven't had the chance to play with them a lot yet but they feel very creamy and soft :)

Have you tried any of these products?
Do you have a favourite product from Oriflame that you keep repurchasing?

Tellisin Oriflame'i eelmisest kataloogist järjekordsed ilutooted, mida pole küll palju kuid mis ehk ikkagi huvi pakkuda võiksid :)

Milk & Honey Gold sari on pärast mündi-vaarika sarja minu järgmine lemmik. Need tooted lõhnavad tõesti piima ja mee järele, mis tekitab minus sooja ja mõnusa tunde. Eriti meeldib mulle neid kasutada sügistalvisel ajal :)
Võtsin proovimiseks Milk & Honey Gold niisutava dušikreemi (3.49€) ja kreemja seebi (1.79€). Dušikreem võiks olla veidi "kreemisem" kuid sellegipoolest on tegu väga mõnusa tootega. Seebi tellisin katsetamaks, kas see kestab kauem kui vedelad dušigeelid, mis mul küll liiga kiiresti otsa kipuvad saama. Eks võtan siis aega kui kiiresti see seebitükk ära kulub :)

Mul oli hädasti vaja uut ripsmetušši ja tellisin proovimiseks The ONE 5-in-1 Wonderlash tuši (hetkel kehtivas kataloogis 7.90€ kuid soovitan oodata alesid ;) ). Mulle meeldib selle tuši kitsas kummist harjas, millega pääsen ripsmejuure lähedale ilma, et kogu laugu täis mäkerdaksin :) (Siin on väike trikk, kuidas hõlpsalt laugudelt tušš eemaldada - LINK). Kuigi see tušš ei anna eriti rohkelt tihedust on seda siiski võimalik mitme kihiga saavutada. 5-palli skaalal annan sellele hindeks 4 :)

Kuna olen suur kreemjate lauvärvide ja eriti lauvärvipliiatsite fänn, tellisin prooviks kaks The ONE Colour Unlimited lauvärvipliiatsit, toonides mis minu kollektsioonist veel puudu olid - hallikas-pruunikas-ploom nimega Mauve Lava (värvinäidis pildil vasakul) ja kerge kumaga tumehall Charcoal Dusk (värvinäidis pildil paremal). Hetkel kehtivas kampaanias (kuni 26.10) on need soodushinnaga 4.79€ tk. Ma pole nendega veel väga palju katsetanud kuid esialgu tunduvad need küll väga pehmed ja kreemjad :)

Kas oled mõnda neist toodetest proovinud?
Kas sul on mõni lemmik Oriflame'ilt mida ikka ja jälle ostad?

Wishlist: Ilu Sõnum Sügis 2015

Today is the first day of our annual biggest beauty and fashion fair Beauty Word that I always have in my calendar and visit.

The event will be held in Estonian Fairs Centre until Sunday October 11th 6pm.

I went through the list of all the companies that will be represented and came up with a short list of things I'd like to get :)

Living Proof hair products because I don't have a good shampoo in my house at the moment :)

Blendercleanser Solid because I first tried it at MUA school and  it's the best and most effective of all the makeup brush cleansers I've used! 

Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat becuase I just can't live without it and 4 similar products I currently use just don't perform as well :)

Dermosil products because I've never tried them :)

Milani Cosmetics because I really lack in blushes and I hope they will have a good selection :)

I will try to show you the stuff I get tomorrow so you'll get the chance to go and grab the ones you like on Sunday the latest :)

Igale ilu- ja moehuvilisele pole mitte mingi uudis, et täna algas Mess Ilu Sõnum Sügis 2015 :)

Vaatasin läbi kõik brändid, kes sel korral esindatud ja tegin enda jaoks nimekirja, kelle boksi kindlasti külastan :)

Homme, laupäeval, lähen jahtima järgmiseid tooteid:

Living Proof juuksehooldustooteid, sest mul on šampoon täiesti otsas :) Neid tooteid leiab Salonshop Baltic boksist :)

Blendercleanser Solid meigivahendite puhastusseep on parim, mida ma proovinud olen! Selle leiab PRO Kosmeetika boksist.

Seche Vite kiirkuivatav pealislakk on minu absoluutne lemmik, milleta ma lihtsalt ei saa hakkama. Mul on hetkel 4 alternatiivset toodet ja ükski neist ei tee oma tööd nii hästi kui Seche Vite! Selle leiab Beauty Pro boksist :)

Dermosil ja Milani Cosmetics tooteid tahaks lihtsalt näha ja katsuda :)
