E.L.F. ESSENTIAL BLUSHES

E.L.F. Essential Blush With Brush in Innocent and Glow £2.50

These two pretty blushes are now in the hands of my sister who got them when we last ordered. I really wanted to try them myself because I've had an eye on the shade Glow for a while now. And it sure was pretty. So I laid my hands on these just to try them out and to do a face swatch for you. I end up never doing swatches. Fo shame.

I first tried the shade Glow  and I have to say I liked this one the best. It is a lovely peachy color that I really love, but the pigmentation wasn't as good as Innocent though. With Glow I had to do several strokes on my cheeks to get it visible. But the shade is gorgeous and I'm certain I will order it the next time I order from E.L.F.

Then there was Innocent, also a lovely shade but I personally think I look better in warmer colors. This is a pink shade with a cold undertone to it and the pigmentation of this blush was great. With only a few few strokes I got a lot of color showing. One thing I didn't like was that this blush got super messy in the container. I also didn't like the brushes that came with the blush, but hey, you can't really complain when the price is that great.

YVES ROCHER GOLD EYELINER

Yves Rocher Eyeliner in Gold $4

This pretty little eyeliner was bought on a small sale they had at Yves Rocher - since I have wanted a gold eyeliner for so long, when I saw this thing lying in the boutique, I thought: Now is the time to buy one. It's a great gold eyeliner and I'm really glad that I bought it. I think it's really pretty to combine black and gold eyeliner. What do you think about gold eyeliners? Yes/No?

MAKE UP STORE LIPCARE MIX

Make Up Store Lipcare Mix £14

A while back I got a Christmas gift card at Make Up Store so I had to stock up on some of their great products. One of my picks was the Lipcare Mix - three easy steps to gorgeous lips.This is a lovely product and I always like the simple look of MUS products. They look nice and sleek. I used this frequently when I first bought it but it ended up in the bottom of my second makeup bag so I kinda forgot I had it until I dug it out of there. Now I will definitely use this on my dry lips this winter - I'm using lip balm all the time now. The Lipcare Mix is divided in three steps as listed below.

The Green Creme: This is for exfoliating the lips to get rid of dry flakes and make them smoother. It really does work great to get rid of flaky lips which I always am in need of during the cold long Swedish winters. This is a real savior.

The White Creme: Make your lips smooth and moisturized after exfoliating them. This keeps the lips smooth and keeps away dry flaky lips for sure. It's a great lip balm that does what it's supposed to. It also says on MUS website that it can be used to remove lipstick, haven't tried this myself though.

The Pink Creme: Last but not least - finish the look of your lips with a sweet pink shaded lip gloss that will make your lips look luscious.

MANGO WHIP BODY LOTION

The Body Shop Body Lotion in Mango £8.00

If you read my blog you would know that I'm loco for Body Shops fruity products. This body lotion is one of my many products from this brand that I looove. It smells delicious and I can't get enough of mango scented products. The body lotion even looks delicious - like a creamy mango whip thingy. Yummers. This lotion does what it is supposed to - moisturizing the body. It does a very fine job of this and who would not love to use a product that moisturizes well AND makes you smell fruity fresh. What do you think about the body lotions from Body Shop?

E.L.F. BLUSH: TICKLED PINK

E.L.F. Studio Blush in Tickled Pink £3.75

Oh, blushes. I have recently gotten this urge to buy more blushes because it's so pretty with a little color on the cheeks. This blush from E.L.F. Cosmetics has been in my makeup bag for a while now. It's a really pretty pink color that even looks a little peachy on the cheeks, nothing wrong with that.. This blush is matte and has no shimmer to it which is good. These have great pigmentation and come in a great variation of colors - I'd love to buy more of them. I can't say I'm anything other than satisfied with this blush. If you want a cheap, great blush you should definitely try one of these blushes.

Actually I have a new blush from the E.L.F. Studio Line that came in the mail - Candid Coral. Oh I've wanted that blush for so long now. My sister and I ordered last week when they had free shipping for 24 hours. So I will have a few new goodies to try out for you guys.

Have you tried the E.L.F. Studio Blushes? Which shade do you like the most? Every single shade looks gorgeous, it's a hard pick!

RITUALS WU WEI BATH FOAM

Rituals Wu Wei Bath Foam in White Lotus & Green Tea £ 11.50

My mom bought this when we were on a family vacation in Berlin, I remember it was at the Alexa shopping center. So my mom was a big bather and so am I. It's so relaxing to sit down in a warm bath with a great smelling bath product. This bath foam from Wu Wei is, and I quote - "Enriched with calming White Lotus and Green Tea, the symbols of purity and spiritual growth". Well doesn't that sound good? The bottle has lasted many baths and there is a lot left which is great. It says one bottle will last for 10 baths, but I'd say it last for even more of course depending that you don't pour the whole bottle down in one bath. The smell is lovely and you feel fresh and clean after a bath with this. Great choice mom!
