DIY GEL MANICURE

Hello everyone. In todays post I will show you how you can do gel nails at home. It is super easy and pretty cheap. So everything you need I bought in my local drugstore Dm for 50 €. In this Kit you will find everything you need to give yourself a gel manicure except the colour shade, which you choose separately. The kit is called Depend GelLack, Ready to go! You can do this on your toenails too, since the results will last longer than on your hands. 

Use cleanser with cotton wool ball to clean your nails. Allow the nails to dry completely for about 30 seconds. Do not touch the nail surface after it has been cleaned.

Apply a thin layer of base polish. Harden for 30 seconds under the LED lamp.

 Apply a thin coat of gel polish- coloured one. Harden for 30 seconds under the LED lamp.

Apply another thin layer of gel polish and harden for 30 seconds under the LED lamp.

Apply a thin layer of top polish and harden again under the LED lamp for 30 seconds.

  

Now the nail surface will be sligtly sticky. Apply the cleanser on a cotton wool ball and cleanse the top finish and bring out the gourgeous sheen of the gel polish.

  You have now hard-wearing, high-gloss, polish that will last about three weeks.

Do you want me to show the Kit in details? All the products, the lamp, polishes??

HOW TO SAVE MONEY ON YOUR HAIR?

HAIRCOLOUR DEMONSTRATION

Hello beauties. In this post I am going to show you how I colour my hair at home. It is great because you don't have to spend all that money in the salon. If you think that you can't handle it, then ask your friend or mom. You are going to save a lot of  money and still have beautiful hair. Now let's begin.

Things that you will need:

- hair colour

- old t-shirt

- hair ;)

- optional:

               *brush for colouring the hair

               *bowl to mix the colour

               *something to protect your shirt

As you can see i mix the 1 and 2 with brush and then apply the mixture to my roots. When my roots were completely covered I start applying the colour to the rest of my hair. At the end I put my hair in the bun, wait for 25 minutes and rinse everything off.  

Do you colour your hair at home?

DUPE FOR MAYBELLINE LIPSTICK + SWATCHES

Hello beauties. In this post I am going to do a quick review about Catrice lipstick. I bought it last week in drugstore for 3.99 €. First, the packaging looks super cool, it has mirror effect. The lipstick is so creamy and pigmented. It reminds me of Maybelline ones. They (Catrice) are my second favourite from the drugstore (essence comes on third place). The lipstick that I bought is identical to Maybeline, colour sensational Mystic Mauve. The colour, texture and pigmentation is almost the same. So you could say that I found dupe for Maybelline lipstick, which is even cheaper (like 6 € cheaper).

Do you girls have any dupes for drugstore products? 

 I would really love to know. Thank you for reading,

MY FAKE TANNING ROUTINE

Hello  tan junkies. Since spring is almost here I've been wanting to go a shade darker. And I did. So in this post I will show you how to acheive perfect summer glow. You can do it at home and it is super affordable. Keep in mind if you want to do my routine for a certain occasion, start 4 or 5 days beffore. Don't wait for the last day.  All the products are avaliable at any drugstore. 

step 1: exfoliate

I use Fruttini Cherry Vanilla body scrub, 200 ml. It stimulates the skin with micro-fine exfoliating beads and gently removes impurities. This will help you to apply self tanner withouth streaks, because it removes dead skin cells. It smells amazing!!

Price: 5 €

step 2: self tan

I use Hawaiian Tropic self tan Creme, 180 ml. This self-tanning creme is super moisturizing and does not dry out your skin. It claims that has light fresh fragrance, but I don't smell it. It smells like all self-tanners does.  I apply this creme after the shower in the evening with lateks gloves on dry skin all over my body. Then I wait for 3-5 minutes to dry and put on my PJ's and go to sleep. And when I woke up I have summer colour. I really love the colour that this self-tanner gives you. It is super natural, but it is a little tricky to apply it, becouse if you are new at this you will probably get some streaks.

Price: 12 €

step 3: maintain the self tan

Every day after I use Dove Sunshine Body Lotion for dark skin, 250 ml. This smells super amazing and it maintains my tan and builds it even more. It also helps to cover streaks (if you were not careful the night before). I love this product and really recomended it.

Price: 6 €

 

Which self-tanner do you use? Leave a comment and let me know.
