Haul - Catrice Arts Collection, Alverde Waldgeflüster, P2 Mirror Mirror

Hello sweeties <3

I've got the feeling that I haven't done a beauty haul in what feels like ages. I did buy many things since my last haul post but never got around to post it in time BUT with the gorgeous LEs that came out this month I could just not post about it *haha* ;)

I apologize for the quality of the pictures but as most of the time I don't come home before 6 pm I have to take the pics with artificial lighting and so far I haven't gotten the hang of that ^^"

Blushes over blushes~

Hello sweeties <3

As you know this weekend I went to Nuremberg again and as it always goes when I am around Koo-chan we can't help ourselves and go shopping. This time I focused on blushes and this is what I got *points down*

Well, I also bought some "supplies" that I urgently needed like Q_zips and cotton pads to remove make-up. I also got some balea makeup whipes and a new blush brush. I bought the one from Ebelin as the bristles are so so soft *O* And I got myself the alverde cream to powder concealer that Koo-chan recommended to me in the color ivory. I already tested it and I love it pretty much. The consistancy is really nice and for once it is not too dark for my skintone *yay*

Tiny haul~

Hello sweeties <3

It feels like ages since I did my last haul, so I thought it is time to do one again ;) And although I was going through the city with the intetion to get some new glasses I did everything but buying glasses *haha* Well, I found some cute ones but unfortunately I forgot the prescription I recevied from the doctor...so I have to go back again with the prescription and try again *ahahaha* Anyways, I wouldn't be me if I would come home empty handed. Here is what I got...instead of glasses ^^"

Essence Pure Skin Pore Refining Serum - because I have big pores and Koo-chan recommended this to me :)

Balea Professional Silberglanz Shampoo - Maybe the color will come out of my hair faster with this shampoo...for 1,45 EUR it is worth a shot~

Balea Beauty Effect Day Fluiy SPF 15 - This should help remove tiny wrinkles you get from laughing etc. As I am not getting younger I thought it is worth a try. For 3,45 EUR it is worth a shot, right?

Balea Cell Energy Night Elixer - Regernerates the skin with PhytocellTec...well, wasn't to expensive either. We are not getting younger here *coughs*

Balea Erdbeer Momente Showergel - It smells so delicious like strawberries <3 Need there be another reason? ;)

Nivea In-Dusch Body Milk Travel Size - I already have the big bottle and so far I really like it (review coming soon) and I thought for travelling this tiny bottle is just perfect :)

LE madness - Me and my Icecream / Pool Side Party / Glamazona / Ticket to Paradise

Hello sweeties <3

As I mentioned in my last post teh new "Me and my icecream"-LE from essence is now in stores. When I saw the promo pictures for the first time I instantly fell in love....I am such a sucker for cute packaging xD In the beginning I was really tempted to buy every single item of the collection but as I am not allowed to buy any more eyeshadows [I have waaaaay to many *coughs] I was a good girl and "only" bought the shimmer pearls, the cream blush, the hand wipes and a lip balm. Although I don't use lip balms to often the design sucked me into buying that ^^" And not only did I get a hold of this LE I also grabbed some other things at dm and douglas :3

Mostly LE Stuff...I really indulged in blushes this time *haha*

May Favourites

Hello sweeties <3

I know, I know...it is already well into June but I still want to show you my May favourites ;) So, here we go~

 

1. Diadermine Wrinkle Expert 3D Night Creme - Well, as I am not turning younger I thought it was time to start with this kind of cream. Really moisturizes the skin and smoothens your skin ^^b

2. Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Correcting Powder in Creamy Natural - Still loving it as it covers blemishes and makes your face look refined :)

3. Maybelline Fit Me! Concealer - Great Concealer, I use it for the nose and chin area and it does wonders~

4. Instant Anti-Age Effect "The Eraser" - Another concealer that I use under the eye to cover dark circles.

5. Sleek Oh, so special!- and Lagoon-Pallet - my goto-pallets this month. The pigmentation and colors are really awesome. You can find a review on our beauty blog :)

6. Multi Color Blush in Strawberry Frappuccino by Catrice - Still loving this one to pieces <3 Great for everyday use~

7. Benefit Bella Bamba blush - LOVE IT! Awesome color, awesome pigmentation...but not for everyday use although I wore it to work this month xD

8. Sweet Recipe Baby Chou Makeup Base from Etude House - Holy Grail! Even without foundation over it your skin looks so much betterv with this base alone <3

9. Sweet Recipe Chocolate Highlighter from Etude House - I never used highlighter that much but this made me change my mind. Gorgeous color~ I love Etude House ;)

10. Alverde Setting Spray - I was looking for a not to expensive setting spray for a really long time and found this. Love it!

11. P2 Keratin nail polish - I don't know if it really helps my nails but I love to use it everyday to make my nails look more refined :)

12. Maybelline Falsies "Federlook" - Really love it as it makes your lashes thicker and longer *_* It also doesn't clump on me ^^b

What were your favourites in May?

Have a nice start into this week~

Catrice - Candy Shock

Hello sweeties <3

I went to dm again on the weekend and got myself something from the Candy Shock LE by Catrice. Actually I wasn't planning on getting anything from that LE as the previews didn't "talk" to me that much but in the end I couldn't resist and got myself some things and I have to say that I am more than happy that I did ;) Here is what I got:

Multi Colour Blush in C01 Sugar Shock

Soft Nail Lacquer in C02 Play it Blue

Soft Nail Lacquer in C04 Vanilla Love

Lip Peeling with Vanilla Flavor

Multi Colour Blush in C01 Sugar Shock

Here I was sold through the packaging and the swirls xD The color payoff actually isn't that great, I would say it is more like a highlighter than an actual blush as you nearly can't see it on the skin BUT the shimmer that it gives to your face is really nice ^^b

...this is the result after 3 layers of blush. Can't really see that much but as a highlighter it will be nice in my opinion~

Lip Peeling with Vanilla Flavor

Well, I bought it because my lips have been totally dry recently and I thought I could give it a try. So far I can't really say much about it as I only tested it for a short time but it made my lips feel smoother after applying it...we will see how it looks in the long run ;)

Soft Nail Lacquer in C02 Play it Blue

Soft Nail Lacquer in C04 Vanilla Love

Well, both colors are really opaque but you do need 2 coats to get a somewhat even finish...but this is written on the bottle so I won't complain about that xD The colors are gorgeous and they have a matte finish. I really like that as most of the polishes I owned so far had a glossy finish. These are the perfect colors for spring ^^b [btw. don't mind my nails...they look horrible at the moment x.X]

Did you already get something from the Candy Shock LE? What do you like? Did you already try the eyeshadows?

Have a nice day~

March Favourites - Part 1 Beauty

Hello sweeties <3

And yet another month of 2013 is over. Workwise it was one of the hardest months ever but my weekends were really really awesome...although for Easter I had to change plans because I was struck by a mean cold T^T But end of a months means it is Favourites-Time :3 So here we go, my favourites for the month of March~

You make me HAUL again ;)

Hello sweeties <3

How are you? Don't mind the lame pun but I had to do that at least once on this blog *haha* Yep~ you are reading right...it is another haul. As I was really sad on Tuesday because my plans for the weekend drastically changed because of a mean cold I had to buy makeup...to feel less sad...well, in the end it didn't really help that much but I got myself some pretty new things nonetheless :3 Here we go~

dm it was again...and as I am trying to not buy any eyeshadows at the moment (I have waaaaaay to many and I promised Pea I wouldn't buy new stuff] I indulged in lip products, a new mascara and yet another new foundation xD

Space Invaders + Drugstore Haul

Hello sweeties <3

How was your weekend? I was rather lazy but still got several things done ^^b On Saturday I went to dm again and made my nailpolish collection even bigger and on Sunday I finally colored my hair again....yep, you are reading right...but instead of color from the drugstore I used the haircolor by Sante which is made of Henna. I have to say it was an interesting experience xD At first you have to boil water and put some tea into it to make the color pop more. After that you have to mix in the Henna. This mixture really smells like earth and mine looked green in the beginning...I was worried that it would stay that way but it turned black *haha* After the mixture cooled down a bit my collegue put it onto my head and there it stayed for 2 hours...well, not all of it because something was dripping on my face xD Although the procedure takes way longer than drugstore hair color my hair and scalp didn't behave weirdly afterwards...I would say it even felt better afterwards :3

Cotton Candy at Eiffel Tower

Hello sweeties <3

It is time for another haul. I didn't do one for a pretty long time...at least I get the feeling that I have to catch up on my latest buys *haha* This time I made a trip to my nearest drugstore to get some stuff. Actually I was only planning to look at the new Essence Oz-LE but than I bought two eyeshadows and on top of that I indulged in nail products xDDD

Two eyeshadows from the Oz-The great and powerful LE by Essence in 03 Generosity and 02 Kindness. The texture is really smooth and it feels great on the skin. The opacity isn't that great though...you would need some layers to get popping colors. Also bought the beyond beauty eyprimer from P2 the I feel pretty-LE as it was reduced to only 1 EUR :)

LE addict

Hello sweeties <3

It is time for another haul *haha* Last week I went to my local drugstore again and couldn't just leave without buying something...and as always this something turned out to be a little more*coughs* ^^"

2 Souffle Touch Blushes from Essence

P2 Snow Kissed LE Eyeshadows in Soft Winter

Catrice Made to Stay Longlasting Eyeshadow in Metall of Honor

Catrice Absolute Eye Colour Quad 040 Never Let Me Go!

Catrice Smokey Eyes Quad in Love, Peas and Harmony

Flormar Terracotta Trio Eyeshadow in 06

P2 Color Victim Nailpolish in Ready to Rock!

Catrice + NYX Haul / Camera-Question

Hello sweeties <3

OMG~ another haul xD Seriousely since the last 6 months I became addicted to make-up...everytime I go to the drugstore or Douglas I HAVE to get at least one item ^^" I also started doing swaps this month and my addiction is growing bigger and bigger...so, from now on you will see even more beauty haul posts, hope you don't mind m(_._)m

This time I went to dm to get some things for my swap partners and naturally also found some things for myself ^^" I bought two lipglosses and two eyeshadows from Catrice for myself.

Catrice Lip Appeal Lipgloss in 190 Nude - Tritious and 160 Flirty Fuchsia

Top - Flirty Fuchsia ~ it is rather sheer...when I saw it at the store I thought it would be more opaque. I think it would be great to wear over a lipstick :)

Bottom - Nude ~ nice brownish red color and it has sparkles in it *_* Also rather sheer but over a lipstick the effect would be really nice in my opinion.

 

Dark Shadows ;)

Hello sweeties <3

OMG~ the last week was so exhausting...thank god it is weekend xD And it will be so great...tomorrow the local Lolitas have a Teaparty...I am really excited <3 I am gonna wear a combination of blue and pink *hehehe* Stay tuned for the outfit tomorrow ;) But today I want to talk about some things I bought myself during the last weeks...yep, actually I shouldn't buy anything because I wanna save money for Japan but from time to time I gotta treat myself with little things ;D

So, here is my little haul :)

Three Lipsticks by Catrice from the Ultimate Colour Series in the colors 190 The Nuder the Better, 130 Frozen Rose and 010 Be Natural. They were 3,75 EUR each but I think they are definitely worth the money. The texture is really soft and it feels totally smooth on your lips. The colour dispense is great as well...so all thumbs up from me ^^b

top - 010 Be Natural

middle - 130 Frozen Rosei

bottom - 190 The Nuder the Better
