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 :)

Makeup Revolution London Lip Products

If I have a makeup item obsession then my weakness is lipsticks :) 
(You can see my lipstick collection from two years ago that has expanded a lot by now HERE)
I've lost count of how many I have at the moment and I don't really care :) Whenever I feel down, stressed and just pissed off about everything buying lipstick always makes me feel better :D

I recently discovered Makeup Revolution London, did some research on what to order and was SO happy to discover that I can get a very good quality lipsticks starting with just £1! Yay!

With my first order I got these items that I found good reviews on:
Salvation Velvet Lip Lacquer in What I Believe - this is a lip gloss that dries matte and is something like liquid lipstick. The shade is quite bright which makes it more suitable for summer. It does make my lips feel dry but it's not something too unbearable if I apply lip balm before or a regular gloss on top.
Amazing Lipgloss in Nude Shimmer - almost see-through light pink lip gloss that goes on top of every lipstick shade. Not too sticky and sheer enough to whack on without a mirror :)
Amazing Lipstick in The One, Ruby and 100% Vamp - I just can't believe how cheap these truly amazing lipsticks are! I love Ruby because it's a classic red that has slightly pink undertone and 100% Vamp is something I've never had in my collection. I cannot apply it as it is in the tube because I will look dead but applied sheer it makes me look so chic and like million bucks :D 
Unfortunately The One is too nude for me and doesn't flatter my skin tone (I'm fair and slightly olive undertone) but those who like skin coloured nudes will love it!

I strongly suggest you check out Makeup Revolution London because the reviews are great and prices even better! I think I will order some more of the Amazing Lipsticks and some of their eye shadow palettes because its rumoured in social media that they have great dupes for most of the raved high-end palettes out there ;)


Hiljuti avastasin enda jaoks vägagi taskukohase kosmeetikabrändi Makeup Revolution London. Tegin veidi taustauuringut ning tellisin mõned tooted huultele, sest just huulepulgad on minu nõrk koht ja neid pole kunagi liiga palju :)

Salvation Velvet Lip Laqcuer toonis What I Believe ( £3 ehk umbes 4€) - ere matt roosa huuleläige, mida võiks pigem iseloomustada kui vedelat huulepulka. Huuled muutuvad seda kandes kuivaks kuid kui enne kasutada huulepalsamit või lisada peale hoopis huuleläiget, on see üsna mugav ja püsib pikalt.
Amazing Lipgloss toonis Nude Shimmer (£1 ehk umbes 1.35€) - peaaegu läbipaistev heleroosa huuleläige, mis sobib iga huulepulga tooni peale ja mida on võimalik mugavalt ilma peeglita peale kanda.
Amazing Lipstick toonides The One, Ruby ja 100% Vamp (£1 ehk umbes 1.35€)- väga mõnusad huulepulgad, mille kvaliteet on sellise hinna kohta lausa suurepärane. Nahavärvi toon The One mulle kahjuks ei sobi, Ruby on klassikaline punane, millel kerge roosa alatoon ja seetõttu sobib minu jumega väga hästi. 100% Vamp on väga tume ploomitoon, mida ma otse tuubist peale kanda ei saa kuid huuli õrnalt huulepulgaga tupsutades ning värvi hajutades annab see väga šiki tulemuse.

Üldiselt jäin oma esimese tellimusega rahule, pakk jõudis ilusti Eestisse kohale ja liitudes uudiskirjaga saad esimesena teada headest pakkumistest, mida laekub küll iga nädal :)

Kas oled sellest brändist varem midagi kuulnud ja nende tooteid proovinud?

What's in my go-to makeup bag?

I thought I'd update "What's in my makeup bag" post since I did one almost two years ago (LINK)  :)
I try to have few staples in my makeup bag for touch-ups during the day and to have few things for quickly changing my makeup from day to night if needed :)
I love this YSL makeup bag because the surface of it doesn't get dirty and it opens up very wide so I can quickly rummage through it and grab what I need :)
I wear contacts so I always need to have eye drops with me. My favourite is Bausch&Lomb ReNu MultiPlus one. Since my face gets shiny throughout the day I always have a powder and/or blotting papers with me. At the moment it's Lancôme Micro-Aerated Pressed Powder in Translucent and Oriflame Optimals Matte Touch Face Blotting Tissues. I apply my powder with Oriflame Giordani Gold Flat Foundation Brush, it's short and tiny and fits perfectly in my bag. There's always a compact mirror and Travalo filled with my favourite perfume. Also because of the small packaging I like to keep my EOS Hand Lotion in Berry Blossom with me at all times :)
As I'm a lipstick hoarder, there's always a handful of lip products in my makeup bag. I switch them from time to time and at the moment I have more fall appropriate shades with me  - YSL Gloss Pur in shade 9, Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector in shade 05, Catrice Infinite Shine Lip Gloss in shade 020 Best Seller,Truth Teller and Essence Longlasting Lipstick in 07 Natural Beauty.
 For my dark circles I have L'Oreal Touche Magique concealer which I think is a great for illuminating, a black liner which is a random one from Bellaoggi and Oriflame retractable Wonder Colour Lip Liner in Vibrant Pink.
There's always a lip balm and for now it's Burt's Bees Lip Balm with kokum butter that I absolutely love!
Do you take makup bag with you? How many items do have in it? What's your staples?
:)(:

Mulle meeldib sobrada oma sõbrannade meigikottides ning sel põhjusel mõtlesin kaasajastada oma "Meigikoti sisu" postitust, sest viimati kirjutasin sellest pea kaks aastat tagasi (LINK) :)

Selles valges YSL meigikotis kannan kaasas hädavajalikke tooteid, et päeva jooksul oma meiki värskendada ning ootamatuste korral päevameik õhtuks sobivaks muuta.

Kuna kannan läätseid, on mul kotis alati kaasas niisutavad silmatilgad, minu lemmikuks on Bausch&Lomb ReNu MultiPlus. Alati on kaasas ka peegel ning Travalo minu lemmikparfüümiga. Kuna minu kombineeritud nahk muutub päeva jooksul läikivaks, on mul alati kaasas imavad paberid (Oriflame Optimals Matte Touch Face Blotting Tissues) ning presspuuder (Lancôme Micro-Aerated Pressed Powder toonis Translucent). Puudrit kannan peale Oriflame Giordani Gold lameda jumestuskreemi pintsliga, sest see on lühikese varrega ja väike, nii et mahub hõlpsalt kotti. Väikese pakendi tõttu on mugav kaasas kanda ka EOS Berry Blossom kätekreemi.

Meigikoti valdav enamus kuulub huuletoodetele, mida aeg-ajalt vahetan. Hetkel on mu meigikotis sügisele sobilikud tooted - Burt's Bees huulepalsam, YSL Gloss Pur huuleläige toonis 9, Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector toonis 05, Catrice Infinite Shine Lip Gloss huuleläige toonis 020 Best Seller,Truth Teller ja Essence Longlasting Lipstick huulepulk toonis 07 Natural Beauty.

Veel on alati kaasas valgustpeegeldav peitekreem minu tumedatele silmaalustele (L'Oreal Touche Magique), must silmapliiats (suvaline firmalt Bellaoggi) ja huulepliiats (Oriflame Wonder Colour Lip Liner toonis Vibrant Pink).

Kas sa kannad igapäevaselt meigikotti kaasas? Millised on sinu asendamatud iluvidinad?

Haul: few things from Germany

I spent last weekend in Germany in the lovely and beautiful city of Hamburg :)
And of course I couldn't walk past their beauty shops and get few things.
I have come to a point where I actually don't NEED anything so this time I was modest with my haul :)
From one of the largest beauty shops called Douglas I got two things from NYX - Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk which I thought would become handy while doing my MUA work and Butter Gloss Lipgloss in Peaches and Cream. The colour is very bright so it's more suitable for summer but if applied sheer I can get away with it even now during autumn :)
From another shop in Billstedt-Center I finally got my hands on Maybelline Instant Age Rewind concealer in shade 03 Fair. I haven't seen it in our local shops and since half of Youtube raves about it, I had to grab it. Unfortunately my first impressions are not super good but we'll see.
I also thought that trying out Essence Liquid Lipstick in shade 02 Beauty Secret would be interesting plus the shade is spot on for autumn :) 
Veetsin eelmise nädalavahetuse Saksamaal, võluvas linnas Hamburg ning otse loomulikult ei saanud ma kosmeetikapoodidest lihtsalt mööda kõndida :)
Õnneks olen jõudnud punkti, kus mul otseselt midagi VAJA ei ole ja seega olin oma ostudega üsna tagasihoidlik :)
Ilukaupluste ketist Douglas soetasin kaks NYX toodet - Jumbo Eye Pencil lauvärvipliiatsi toonis Milk (5.99€), mida plaanin kasutada oma jumestajatöödes. Butter Gloss huuleläige toonis Peaches and Cream (6.99€) on ere ja suvine läige kuid saan seda ka praegu kanda kui lisan huuletele õhukese kihi värvi.
Billstedt-Center kaubanduskeskusest rabasin kaasa Maybelline Instant Age Rewind peitekreemi toonis 03 Fair (9.99€), mida Youtube'is väga kiidetakse kuid minu esmamuljed pole siiski nii positiivsed kui ootasin :)
Essence Liquid Lipstick vedel huulepulk toonis 02 Beauty Secret (2.49€) tundus põnev ja toon ka sügisele sobiv. Kui mu mälu mind ei peta, siis peaks need ka meil Selverites müügil olema :)
