MILK & HONEY body cream*


On my blog I would like to share a blog post, in which I will tell you more about the new cream from Oriflame. It is called the Milk & Honey gold hand & body cream, 8.3 fl. oz. (9.99 ). It is a rich moisturising cream which softens, conditions and nourishes your hands and body delectably. It also has organically sourced extracts - milk and honey. We can apply the cream all over our body, also we can use it on our hands. I use the cream just after the shower, usually in the evening. I really like how the cream works with my skin, because it is not greasy or sticky, so it is easy and fast to apply. Because the cream is moisturizing, it does not give you a longlasting hydratation effect. So if you don't have extremly dry skin, then this is perfect for you, otherwise you should apply the cream more often for the same results.

Ingredients:
AQUA, GLYCERIN, CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE, BUTYLENE GLYCOL, CETYL ALCOHOL, GLYCERYL STEARATE SE, STEARYL ALCOHOL, DIMETHICONE, PARAFFINUM LIQUIDUM, CETEARYL ETHYLHEXANOATE, CARBOMER, METHYLPARABEN, IMIDAZOLIDINYL UREA, CETEARETH-20, STEARIC ACID, PROPYLPARABEN, PARFUM, DISODIUM EDTA, SODIUM HYDROXIDE, ISOPROPYL MYRISTATE, LINALOOL, HEXYL CINNAMAL, CITRONELLOL, HYDROXYCITRONELLAL, MEL, SINE ADIPE LAC, PHENOXYETHANOL, CI 47005, CI 14700


I am also testing the new lip balm Tender Care, 15 ml. Perfect to put in your handbag or as a special gift, Tender Care is a beautiful balm specially formulated for dry skin. It's a blend of Emollients, Beewax and Vitamin E is so effective that the formula has remained the same since it was created in 1980. If you would like to test this product, I highly reccomend it, also it is on sale for 1.79 €.

Ingredients:
PETROLATUM, CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE, PARAFFINUM LIQUIDUM, CERA ALBA, PARAFFIN, ACETYLATED LANOLIN, CETYL ALCOHOL, TOCOPHERYL ACETATE, PROPYLPARABEN



Danes bi z vami rada delila objavo, v kateri vam bom povedala nekaj več o novi kremi za roke in telo od Oriflame. To je milk & honey gold hand & body cream, 250 ml (9.99 ). Gre za zelo nežno in hranilno kremo za telo z organsko pridobljenimi izvlečki mleka in medu. Kremica našo kožo intenzivno nahrani, omehča in jo odišavi ter navlaži za ves dan. Nanesemo jo lahko po celem telesu, poleg tega pa jo lahko uporabljamo tudi za naše roke. Sama jo nanesem po tuširanju, večinoma zvečer. S kremo sem zadovoljna, saj zame ni premastna in se hitro vpije v kožo, tako je nanos enostaven in hiter. Ravno vlažilnost te kreme pa koži na žalost ne daje dolgotrajnega učinka navlaženosti, npr. za naslednji dan. Torej če nimate izredno suhe kože kot jaz, potem je to odličen produkt za vas, drugače pa jo je potrebno za isti učinek nanesti večkrat. 

Sestavine:
AQUA, GLYCERIN, CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE, BUTYLENE GLYCOL, CETYL ALCOHOL, GLYCERYL STEARATE SE, STEARYL ALCOHOL, DIMETHICONE, PARAFFINUM LIQUIDUM, CETEARYL ETHYLHEXANOATE, CARBOMER, METHYLPARABEN, IMIDAZOLIDINYL UREA, CETEARETH-20, STEARIC ACID, PROPYLPARABEN, PARFUM, DISODIUM EDTA, SODIUM HYDROXIDE, ISOPROPYL MYRISTATE, LINALOOL, HEXYL CINNAMAL, CITRONELLOL, HYDROXYCITRONELLAL, MEL, SINE ADIPE LAC, PHENOXYETHANOL, CI 47005, CI 14700


Poleg kremice pa pridno testiram tudi zaščitni balzam za ustnice Tender Care, 15 ml. Ta odpravlja izsušenost kože in ji vrača mehkobo in prožnost. Balzam s posebno formulo s čebeljim voskom in rastlinskimi olji je primeren za ustnice, lica, obnohtno kožico oziroma za vse predele, kjer je koža suha, groba ali vneta. Kot vidite je vsestranski, tako da ga sama nosim v torbici in kreme za roke sploh ne potrebujem več. Če bi ga rade preizkusile, vam nakum izredno priporočam, poleg tega pa je trenutno znižan na samo 1.79 .

Sestavine:
PETROLATUM, CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE, PARAFFINUM LIQUIDUM, CERA ALBA, PARAFFIN, ACETYLATED LANOLIN, CETYL ALCOHOL, TOCOPHERYL ACETATE, PROPYLPARABEN

HALLOWEEN Half Skelton Face

Happy Helloween girls. It is here and if you are like me, then you are trying to figure out what are you gonna be for that Halloween party. This year I decided to be a skelton... Yeah, I know nothing new and exciting, but let me show you how I did it. As you can see on the picture, I painted just the half of my face. On my eyes I am wearing a regular makeup, some falsies and green contacts. I think this Halloween mask is really fun and not too much, and it is also appropriate for school, work,... or you can rock it on the party. The skelton mask is also the easiest to dress. I am wearing all black, and that's it.


I hope you all have fabulous evening and tell me what are you gonna be today?

5 FALL Beauty MUST Haves

Fall is my favorite season. Don't get me wrong I love summer, but when fall comes in, I am all about it. I love expirimanting with new make up and trying different make up trends. The most exciting thing are the lips, and buying some new shades. I really like the look of vampy lips and I think nothing screams fall more then this. Second very important fall step are the eyebrows. To make the contrast to lips, I like to wear very defined and shaped eyebrows. On the other hand I want to be neutral with the eyes. So the must have eyes stuff for the fall 2014 is the Naked2 Basics palette. There are some gorgeous very natural looking colors. You can create any eye look with it. Good looking complexion is a must have all year round. Just like that. I decide to include the Maybelline Wonder Complexion foundation, because this baby has some very good reviews. Last but not least are the nails. How can we talk about fall and beauty without dark nail polish. I choose the burgundy color Max Factor. The nail polish has great coverage, you only need one layer and it does not chip.

While shopping some new makeup products online I discovered an awesome site called Raise. It offers discounted gift cards from some of my favorite retailers, and not just for makeup, but everything that you can think of. I got super excited when I saw that you can buy Sephora gift cards for 14% off their valued price. You can also sell them. Believe me, you will be shopping till you drop and your wallet won't get empty.

SEVEN DEADLY SINS OF BEAUTY TAG


I was tagged by the lovely Grace Simona to do this.
The rules of the seven deadly sins of beauty tag

1) Follow and link up the person who tagged you
2) Answer the questions on greed, wrath, gluttony, sloth, pride, lust and envy.
3) Tag as many people as you wish! Be sure to let them know!
4) Let the person who tagged you know that you did the tag by linking up in the comments!

                                 Greed- what is your most expensive beauty item?
I went through my whole make up collection, closet, and it has to be my hair dryer. It is from Babyliss ipro 2200 and it is amazing. It dries my hair super quick and I could no live withouth it. I can straight my hair with it too, so that is a plus. I bougt it in my local drugstore and it was around 70 €, $ 90, £ 59.

Wrath- which item do you have a love/hate relationship with?
L'oreal infallible foundation. Sometimes I love the colour and the coverage that it gives me, but sometimes my face is pink and I look terrible.

Gluttony- what brand makes up most of your make-up collection?
I would have to decide between maybelline and essence. Overall it has to be essence. I buy essence because it is super cheap, great quality and I just want their products. It is not my favourite make-up brand.

Sloth- which product do you neglect the most due to laziness?
Eyeshadow. I love bright colour, smokey look, but most of the times it is just eyeliner and mascara for my eye make-up.

Pride- which product gives you the most confidence?
Withouth a doubt it has to be mascara. I always wear mascara, always. I can skip foundation, bronzer, lipstick, but not mascara. It is my must have for every day.

Lust- which item is at the top of your beauty wish list?
YSL Rouge Volupte lipstick #2 Sensual Silk. I love the colour so much, and the consistancy looks so nice. I hope I will be able to try it one day.

Envy- which make up product/look is great on others but not yourself?
Smokey eye. I have really small eyelids and eyes, so I am not able to do a lot of dark colour in my crease. I normally put dark eyeshadow in the outer corner to make my eyes look bigger.

People I tagged
MK Beauty

I would love to hear your answers, so leave a link in my comments.

Thank you for reading
