well today we will do an operation for High Definition Powders, it is basically for digital environment, it sets the foundation and slightly mattifies the skin without changing its natural contours, it is universal shade of all skin colours,

I do not know how full are the other brands products but i received my ELF HD Powder today and i must tell i am not very amazed, it is not even half full...

i have purchased a mineral product a setting powder from Laura Mercier and it was full size, the jar was full...

I know that right now ELF, MAC and Make Up Forever have these HD Powders,

A Full Review about ELF will follow in the next couple of days..

Elf Liner and Shadow Review

Once I saw this i thought oh this is a MAC Sharkskin Shade Stick like with a eye pencil so i purchased this without even thinking twice,

i waited a bit to receive this, it arrived a bit late, but when i opened the envelope i was a bit SAADDDDDDDD!!! my eye pencil and shadow was a bit damaged, i have send an email to ELF and tell them the problem, they ask me to send them pictures and they are convinced and i have been send a new one

I am not sure if i can not use this pen or is it really not working honestly it is as black as i want to but it is just making my eyes messy all of my lids under lids are dark black even when i touch my eyes accidentally my fingers get black too,

It is softer than most of the eye pencils but it just needs an improvement maybe waterproof?
i do not carry facial wipes with me so if i do not look into a mirror before i go out to do some stuff outside i will be waking like zombie, i do not carry facial wipes to clean or correct my make up and do it again..

it is just needs an improvement , so when it comes to the shade stick , i think it was broken when it arrived to ELF too, so it is not their fault but i am thinking how could smth in a pencil shape could be broken? it is just not a crystal or a glass,,

btw i forget to tell you that it also makes my lashes messed up, i am having difficulties wearing my mascara after applying this product

well the pictures are not nice but i will do better ones, i take these with mobile.

Actually i have never used this brand before, until i run out of my eye make up remover and I did not want to use CD any more, so i saw this eye makeup remover they were selling it with it is under eye gel, so i said it i snot very expensive and i should try this brand too

But but but i wish i did not buy this brand.. it hardly removes my make up, i rub rub and rub....

It does not work, so i decided to put some herbal oils inside the bottle, i had Dr. Hauschka Rose Essence oil so i nearly pured the half of a bottle in it, i shaked ( yeah Hippy Hippy Shake) shaked and shaked, it it not helped a bit..

than i decided to put some really oily thing in it, i added some Baby Oil as well, you are asking about the result, well well no difference.. 

I put some herbal oils as well, rose essence, bergamot essence, etc


NO DIFFERENCE NO DIFFERENCE NO DIFFERENCE.  IT STILL DOES NOT REMOVE MY MAKE UP IT STILL HURTS MY EYES...

Cacharel Scarlett

I have written my personal thoughts on the previous post so i am just gonna describe it here...

Scarlett, a new perfume geared to young women between 15 and 25, this coming July. Scarlett is a reference to Scarlett Johanson and Scarlett O'Hara * Gone With The Wind*

The notes include tea leaves, citrus, pear, jasmine, orange blossom, honeysuckle, white musk and sandalwood.Additional notes include lavender honey

I think this fragrance will be a failure too as much as Liberte.....

Fragrance Crash Test

Follow on Bloglovin
Follow my blog with bloglovin´

 Saturday i had a chance to try out the new fragrances, i must admit i was very hopeful that these new fragrnaces will take my mind out..

And the result is, i feel like i had to go home and take a bubble bath..

i tested Idole D Armani..   YUCKKKKKKK!!!!!!!! it smells like between freshly made linden tea and a urine..  so i give zero.. 

I tested Parisine new YSL fragrance i did not like it also it is so metalic not as soft as it is been written in magazines and beauty sites,  sometimes I think  it's really easy to write a blog or website under being a sponsor, and recommending products to people to use it.  it is not really fair and honest.

I tried out few fragrances as well as Cacharel's new fragrance Scarlett,  i think they give up producing new fragrance for amor amor..  Yeah at the end..  none of them could take place of classic Amor Amor in red bottle.

I like Cacharel's frangrances i still do not know why i did not like this prodcut, that is big ??????? on my mind..

And I liked Givenchy Angel ou Deamon, i am a girl that hates from Givenchy fragrances, it is just we can not get on well, we are not a good match, but this time i suppose we will get on well :)

there is a test on cacharel's website you can do that test and see your cacharel fragrance..


Dear Fragrance Companies what has happening to you,  TBS Love ETC even smells better than the fragrances you produce, sit and think twice, it is time to produce a fragrance which will suit your names, do not just go for cheap herbs etc to make it cheaper while producing and paying less to your designers and selling it for hell out of money.. that is not so fair........ Change your designers, ask for the opinions of public before really producing it...

I am not so happy for this seasons fragrances and i think i will go for one of my old fragrances.....

Shesido White Lucent

I was suffering from sun spots on my face, and i used most of the products which says it treats spots on the face, i must tell you those are all rubbish,

Rightnow I am using

Shiseido White Lucent Concentrated Brightening Serum, 1 oz

 A high-performance brightening treatment that intensively targets dark spots, freckles and dullness to give skin an extraordinary radiance and beautifully even coloration.

 it has vitamin c extracts in it and the website says Apply morning and evening, after softening lotion and before moisturizer.

And the counter i purchased this lotion told me that i could use this as a moisturiser

If you use it with some other white lucent products you will see the difference even before you finish the product, as it's very expensive and you may not get the results i get, i recommend you to buy some sample sizes not the small sizes that they give in stores, 

Shiseido White Lucent Brightening Refining Softener - Enriched, 5 oz

it is a kind of a toner if you prefer u can use it with a cotton or get some products to your hand and massage your skin

A rich brightening lotion that softens skin and exfoliates as it reduces visible spots, freckles and dullness. Ensures a smooth, evenly luminous complexion. Specially developed with Shiseido-original Multi-Target Vitamin C and Spot Deacti-Complex, extraordinary agents that suppress melanin formation. Helps exfoliate surface melanin and minimize dullness. Formulated with Asian plant extracts to improve moisture balance and smooth skin. Leaves skin feeling generously moist

 

Shiseido White Lucent Brightening Moisturizing Emulsion, 3.3 oz

 it is really brightening, so i strictly recommend you to take a small amount of softner on you hand and use it

rich brightening moisturizer that retexturizes skin, as it helps diminish the appearance of visible spots, freckles and dullness. Ensures a smooth, evenly luminous complexion. Specially developed with Shiseido-original Multi-Target Vitamin C and Spot Deacti-Complex. Formulated with Asian plant extracts to improve moisture balance and smooth skin. Penetrates instantly to provide exceptional moisturizing with no feeling of heaviness

 

Shiseido White Lucent Brightening Moisturizing Cream, 1.4 oz

 this product is more than enough for you, use it with the toner, and facial wash, that is really enough

When I was searching for eye shadow pans for my mac palette, cos clumsy me has broke or damaged most of them and pressing them does not make them as well as before, it still keeps going on breaking.
So shortly i came across with SMH products. i searched a while, and i am convinced that their eye shadows are good, but i did not wanna take risks so i purchased only one refill in olive branch which is also a mac look like shadow (i think it looks like olive green, i will do a swatch when i got the product) and a brush Deluxe Oval Foundation Brush MAC look like 190 Brush

I paid 4.95 USD for a single eye shadow refill
and 5.95 USD for Deluxe Oval Foundation Brush
6. 95 id for international shipping charges
Totally 17.85 USD

i actually liked their smokey eye palette which is about 21.95 USD for 15 eyeshadows. If you considet that one single pan is 4.95 and if you try to purchase 15 eye shadows it will cost you about 74.25 USD
so it is best to buy a palette, they have many different combinations of palettes eg.26 Pan Eyeshadow Blush Pan Combo is about 19.95 USD and a 28 Pan Neutral E.S palette is about 18.95 USD
