ROUGE BUNNY ROUGE SWELL BLISS XXX LIP PLUMPER IN HEATHER ROYAL JELLY: REVIEW, PHOTOS & SWATCHES

♥ Rouge Bunny Rouge Swell Bliss XXX Lip Plumper in Heather Royal Jelly.

My Thoughts:
Rouge Bunny Rouge Swell Bliss XXX Lip Plump in Heather Royal Jelly (5.5 ml/0.19 floz for €23.53) is a pretty nude-pink lip plumper with pretty micro shimmer. The consistency off the gloss is quite thick, and it feels very smooth and soft on the lips. It has a lot of shimmer but since it's very fine, you won't be able to feel it on the lips. It doesnt feel drying and it doesn't have that sticky feeling like some glosses do. It actually feels very soft and moisturizing.

Heather Royal Jelly has that tingly feeling, which you are probably quite familiar with. I personally don't mind it, I actually enjoy it a lot. I have a few off the bare escentuals BUXOM lip plumpers and I find that those can be a little painful at times. This doesn't sting your lips at all, it actually feels quite comfortable on the lips. Heather Royal Jelly has that minty scent and taste, which I personally like and find very refreshing :-)

Rouge Bunny Rouge definitely knows a thing or two about packaging, don't you agree? The product comes in a clear tube with a black handle, and a beautiful floral design on the front off the tube. I absolutely love the packaging, it's gorgeous and very elegant :-)  

Overall, I do think that this is a great choice if you are looking for a new lip plumper to add to your collection. The shade is really pretty and it feels very smooth and soft on the lips. This is not one of those uncomfortable lip plumpers, that's going to make your lips hurt like crazy. It doesn't have that really sticky feeling either, which is a big plus in my book. Heather Royal Jelly is a little more on the pricier side though, but the quality is fantastic and definitely worth checking out :-)

PRODUCTS WORTH BUYING VOL.1: KORRES LIP BUTTERS

Hey Everyone :-)

How are you doing today? Hope you are having a wonderful day! I have a new type of blog post for you guys today. I have been blogging for a couple off years now and I have come across quite a few beauty favorites on my journey. So I have decided to start this new series on my blog called ''Products Worth Buying''.

In these type off blog posts I will be sharing my favorite beauty products, which are all products that I truly love and recommend. I will also be doing a little review off the product that I'm talking about, and also show you some swatches as well. I can't wait to start sharing more off my favorite products with you, maybe you will find a new favorite as well? :-)

♥ Korres Lip Butter in Jasmine. 

♥ Korres Lip Butter in Jasmine.

The first product that I want to talk about is the Korres Lip Butters. Now that Fall is here and it's starting to get a lot colder outside, my lips tend to get extra dry. Chapped lips can be really painful, so that's why I always need to have a good lip balm at home and in my handbag as well.

The Korres Lip Butter in Jasmine has been my go-to lip balm and also my best friend during the Fall and Winter months. It comes in a white container with a baby pink lid. The container is quite small, which makes it a perfect little handbag campanion. The consistency of the lip balm is quite thick, so it helps keep my lips nicely moisturized and hydrated throughout the day. Jasmine has a sweet scent, which I really enjoy and it's also got a little bit of a tint as well. The tint doesn't show up that well on my lips, since they are quite pigmented! :-)

Although Jasmine is my favorite lip butter by Korres, there are a few other shades in the same range that I like as well. If you are looking for a lip butter with a little more pigmentation than Jasmine, Quince or Pomegranate are great choices. Korres also makes a product called Lip Butter Glaze, which is basically the same product but in a tube form :-)

I think that the Korres Lip Butters are wonderful lip balms, especially if you suffer from dry lips like myself. They are not the most affordable lip balms on the beauty market, but I think that they are totally worth the money :-)  

What do you think about the Korres lip butters? Which shade is your favorite one? :-)

OUTFIT OF THE DAY: BAD HAIR DAY

Hey Everyone :-)
How are you all doing? Hope you are having a wonderful evening! Yesterday, I wore a big and cozy, dark purple sweater from Gina Tricot, which I just recently picked up from their store (see my haul post HERE). I decided to pair it with my favorite pair of black pants, white studded sneakers from Stylish Plus and my new '' Bad Hair Day'' beanie, which is from Front Row Shop :-) 

What I'm Wearing:
Sweater from Gina Tricot.
Pants from Gina Tricot.
Beanie from Front Row Shop.
Shoes from Stylish Plus. 

 

I have been obsessed with beanies lately, and this one from Front Row Shop has quickly become one off my favorites. I have been eyeing a couple off beanies from eBay too, which I'm very eager to order. Fall is the perfect beanie weater and I'm sure that I will have way too many beanies in my collection by the end off the year, LOL! :-)  

 

Front Row Shop is having 10% off selected styles at the moment, you can check out their sale HERE!

It's been really cold outside for the last couple of weeks, so I have been wearing a lot of cozy, over sized sweaters, scarfs and beanies.

♥ Beanie from Choies.
♥ Shoes from Stylish Plus. 

This is what I wore yesterday! A grey, over sized sweater which I just recently received from Choies. I paired the cardigan with my favorite pair of black pants, my cute ''Bring Me Luck'' top from H&M and my white studded sneakers from Stylish Plus. I finished off the look with my GEEK beanie from Choies, which also happens to be my new obsession, LOL :-)

BEAUTY & FASHION HAUL: ESSIE, GINA TRICOT, CHOIES, PERSUNMALL & FRONT ROW SHOP

Hey Everyone :-)
How are you doing? Hope you are having a lovely Thursday. I went shopping with my mom and my sister on Tuesday. Since it's been a while since I have done a beauty and fashion haul, I thought I would get this post up for you guys and share the items that I picked up :-)

 ♥ Top from Gina Tricot.

 ♥ Sweater from Gina Tricot. 

I never leave Gina Tricot empty handed! It's one of my favorite stores, because they always have so many cute items. I picked up this beautiful black peplum top with lace details and this thick purpely pink sweater, which screams Fall to me. I love everything about these two items and I can't wait to wear them both :-)

♥ Gina Tricot Blue Bug & Essie Vested Interest. 

I also picked up two nail polishes, Essie's Vested Interest and Blue Bug by Gina Tricot. Vested Interest is such a pretty greyish green, which I have been wanting to add to my collection since it came out. I was a little surprised to find it at Cubus, since I normally don't find the shades that I want there.

Gina Tricot's Blue Bug is such a pretty shade. It reminds me off Peridot by Chanel only greener, which is another shade that I have been wanting to add to my collection. But since it's quite expensive, I haven't picked up a bottle. I have way too many nail polishes in my collection and I don't really need more, but I just couldn't help myself with this one :-)

♥ Bag from CMYK.

My sweet sister Cecilie surprised with with this pretty handbag from CMYK. She bought it a while ago but never used it, so she gave it to me. I'm such a sucker for black handbags and I'm definitely excited to switch out my old one and starting using this. I love that it's got a pocket on the front, perfect for storing my keys and my phone :-)

I also received some lovely goodies from Choies, Persunmall and Front Row Shop in the mail on Tuesday as well, which I thought I would just include in this post. I'm looking forward to putting together some looks using these items, so definitely keep your eyes open for upcoming outfit posts :-)

 ♥ Top from Persunmall.

SIBU BEAUTY SEA BUCKTHORN BALANCING FACIAL CLEANSER: REVIEW & PHOTOS

 ♥ Sibu Beauty Sea Buckthorn Balancing Facial Cleanser. 

My Thoughts:
The Sibu Beauty Sea Buckthorn Balancing Facial Cleanser (4fl.oz/118ml for $17.95) is an all natural facial cleanser, which gently removes dirt, impurities and makeup. It maintains a healthy balance in the skin, without compromising it's natural protective nutrients.

The Sibu Beauty Sea Buckthorn Balancing Facial Cleanser comes in a big, nice and white bottle with a pump on the top. I love that it's got a pump, because it makes it very handy, it's less messy and it gives me more control over how much product that comes out. The cleanser contains micro-particles that gives the skin a nice and gentle exfoliation, while removing any dead skin that's left on the face as well. The micro-particles doesn't feel harsh on my skin, which is great since my skin is really sensitive.

I like to use this cleanser in the morning and in the evening as well. I use two small pumps of product, which is enough to cover up my entire face and neck. I gently massage the cleanser onto my face and neck area, then rinse it off with lukewarm water afterwards. It lathers up just a little when it comes in contact with water, which is exactly how I prefer my cleansers to be. I just feel like they do a much better job than the gel based cleansers, but that's just my opinion :-)

 ♥ Sibu Beauty Sea Buckthorn Balancing Facial Cleanser.

Overall, I'm very pleased with this product. I really like how my face feels after I've used it, so soft and smooth. It leaves my skin feeling very refreshed, clean and it also looks more radiant and glowy as well. My skin has improved a little since I starting using this product, and it doesn't look as dull as it used to. 

I really like that it's an 2-in-1 cleanser and exfoliator, because it saves me that extra step in my skin care rutine. It's only $17.95 (4fl.oz/118ml) which I think is a good price for this product, since it's going to last you a while. If you are looking for all natural skin care products, give Sibu Beauty a chance. I don't think that you will be disappointed :-)

GLOSSYBOX: SEPTEMBER 2013

♥ GlossyBox: September 2013. 

Hey Everyone :-)

Hope you are doing great. My GlossyBox for the month of September arrived a few days ago, so I wanted to get this post up and share the items that I received. I'm actually a little disappointed in this box. It didn't quite add up to some of the previous boxes that I have received, but I guess you can't win them all, huh? Let me know if you have tried out any of the products down below :-)

♥ GlossyBox: September 2013. 

Products I received in my September box:

♥ Weleda Millet Nourishing Shampoo - HERE.

♥ Da Vinci Mineral Shimmer in Lava - HERE.

♥ Trind Nail Balsam - HERE.

♥ Bellapierre Lipstick in Ruby - HERE.

♥ Océane Make Up Remover Pen - HERE. 

The items that I'm most excited to try out is definitely the Trind Nail Balsam and the Bellapierre lipstick. My nails have been so dry lately, so I'm hoping that the nail balsam will help keep them nice and hydrated. The lipstick looks very pretty and it smells like some kind of yummy dessert, which makes me want to eat it, LOL. I have never been a big fan of red lipsticks because it's a color that scares me, but I will definitely be giving it a chance and see how I like it. I can always sheer it out and make it a little more wearable for me :-)

They also included two movie gift cards in the box, which I'm very excited about. I'm a total movie junkie, so I know for sure that this is something that I'm going to enjoy. I have been wanting to see The Great Gatsby since it came out in theaters, so that's definitely something that I'm looking to doing. Love me some Leo DiCaprio, LOL :-)

What did you receive in your September GlossyBox? Have you been disappointed in one of your GlossyBoxes before? :-) Love, Christine♥
