I want to feature the two nail polishes from Topshop in my ''Weekly Macro''posts, so definitely keep your eyes open for that. I usually post those on Sundays! :-) 

 

What's your most recent beauty purchase? :-)

Products I've Used Up: July & August 2013

 

Hey Everyone :-)

How are you guys doing today? I hope you all are having a wonderful day. I have a new empties post to share with you. I know this post is very late, but better late then never, right? I managed to use up some products over the last couple off months. They have been laying around for such a long time now, so I thought it was time for me to finally do this post and share the items with you. I can't wait to finally throw everything out now, LOL! 

I hope you enjoy this empties post! Let me know in the comments down below if you have tried out any of the products below, and which items you managed to use up during July and August :-)

 L'Oreal Paris Eye & Lip Make-Up Remover Waterproof:
L'Oreal Paris's Eye & Lip Make-Up Remover Waterproof has been my go-to makeup remover for a long time now. I think that it does a great job removing my makeup, both regular and waterproof. This is definitely a product I'm going to stick with, until I find a new favorite :-)  

Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel For Body and Hair:
I'm a huge fan off Lush and their yummy smelling products, and Snow Fairy is a great product to have in your shower. It's got a very fruity and sweet candy scent, which I really enjoy. It can be used as a body wash and even on your hair. I personally prefer to use it as a body wash, just because I find it to be a little drying on my hair. It does have a lot off blue glitter in it, but it didn't show up on my skin at all. Snow Fairy is definitely a product I would buy again. I think I'm going to pick up a bigger bottle if it comes back around Christmas time :-)

Paris Hilton Fairy Dust Perfume:
This used to be one of my favorite perfumes a couple off years ago. It's got a very strong scent, so a little goes a long way with this one. Some of the notes in Fairy Dust is pink peony, orange blossom, musk and vanilla cream. Since I really don't care for the scent anymore, I won't be repurchasing it :-)  

Covergirl Lashblast Volume Mascara in Black:
After hearing so many wonderful things about the Covergirl Lashblast Volume Mascara, I finally caved in and bought it for myself. I really do like this mascara a lot. It gives my lashes some nice volume and lenght, and it does a good job separating them as well. I'm not the biggest fan of the scent though, but I have gotten pretty used to it by now. This is definitely a mascara I would buy again :-)

 Redken Color Extend Shampoo and Conditioner:
I have been loving the Color Extend Shampoo and Conditioner by Redken. This is a line that is created for people with color treated hair. I don't have color treated hair, but I can still use them on my hair. I love how soft they make my hair feel, and the color of my natural hair actually looks more vibrant afterwards. The scent is one of the reasons why I love these products so much. The scent lingers in my hair throughout the entire day, which I absolutely love. I'm such a sucker for good smelling products! :-)

I don't think that I will repurchase them anytime soon, just because I have a a few other shampoo's and conditioners that I want to try out and use up. They are also more suited for my hair type. If you have color treated hair, I highly recommend that you check these out :-)

Korres Pomegranate Cleansing & Make-Up Removing Wipes:
I really like these cleansing and make-up removing wipes from Korres. They remove makeup very well, and they leave my skin feeling fresh and clean afterwards. They didn't break out my skin, which I'm very thankful for since I ended up loving these. They have a very refreshing scent, which I really like. Definitely a product I would repurchase :-) 

Garnier Skin Naturals Nordic Essentials Ultra Cleansing Wipes:
I have been using these cleansing wipes by Garnier for a few months now, and I really like them. They remove regular and waterproof makeup very well. They are very moisturizing, they leave a clean feeling on the skin afterwards and they have a nice and fresh scent. These have already replaced my beloved Simple Kind To Skin Cleansing Facial Wipes, that's how much I love them. This is definitely a product I will keep buying :-)

Do you have any product recommendations? Which products did you use up in July and August? :-) Love, Christine♥

Tag: Colors Of The Rainbow

 Hey Everyone :-)
I just came across the ''Colors Of The Rainbow'' tag through Ingrid (missglamorazzi) and Elle (allthatglitters21) on YouTube. I had a lot of fun watching their awesome videos, and I thought it would be fun to do the tag as well.

Let me know if you like this post, and if you have tried out any of the products I'm talking about. If you have done this tag, please leave your link in the comments down below so I can check it out :-) 

Colors Of The Rainbow:
♥ Red♥ Orange♥ Yellow♥ Green♥ Blue♥Indigo♥Violet♥Pink♥Multicolored.

Redken Color Extend Shampoo and Conditioner:
I have been using the Color Extend Shampoo and Conditioner from Redken for a while now, and I really like them. These are for people with color-treated hair (which I don't have), but you can still use them on your hair. My hair color looks more vibrant, shiny and it feels a lot softer since I started using these. They smell amazing as well, which is always a huge plus for me :-) 

 Covergirl LashBlast Volume Mascara:
The Covergirl LashBlast Volume Mascara is my favorite mascara at the moment. I really like that it gives my lashes some nice volume, and lenght as well. It doesn't look clumpy or flaky on my lashes, which makes my love this product even more. The packaging is very simple, but still cute in my opinion. I use this mascara almost every single day, and I highly recommend that you check it out :-) 

H&M Nail Polish in Going Bananas:
Going Bananas is a pretty pastel yellow nail polish with shimmer. I'm a big fan of these nail polishes from H&M. I think that they are great, they are super affordable and they have a great selection of colors available in stores and online. The packaging is really cute, and I like that the name of the nail polish is on top of the cap. Going Bananas is a beautiful shade for spring and summer, and I can't wait to wear it :-) 

Simple Kind To Skin Cleansing Facial Wipes:
These have been my go-to cleansing facial wipes for removing any makeup on my face. I think that they remove makeup very well, they feel nice on my skin and they are very moisturizing as well. They have a very refreshing scent, which I really like :-) 

L'Oreal Paris Eye & Lip Make-Up Remover Waterproof:
I'm a big fan of this Eye & Lip Make-Up Remover from L'Oreal Paris. I think that it removes my eye makeup very well, both regular and waterproof makeup. It doesn't irritate my sensitive eyes, which is a huge plus for me. If you are looking for a good and affordable makeup remover for your eyes, definitely check this one out :-) 

EOS Ultra Moisturizing Shave Cream in Lavender Jasmine:
I just can't get enough of this shaving cream from EOS, I love it. It's packed with natural conditioning oils, shea butter and antioxidant vitamins E and C to provide 24 hours of ultra-soothing moisture. It's so moisturizing, and it leaves my skin so soft and smooth. I highly recommend that you check it out, it's an amazing shaving cream. I only have a few more uses left, so I need to pick up another bottle soon :-) 

EOS Smooth Sphere Lip Balm in Strawberry Sorbet:
I'm obsessed with the Smooth Sphere Lip Balms from EOS, and Strawberry Sorbet is one of my favorites scents. It's very moisturizing and it leaves my lips soft and smooth for hours, without feeling greasy or sticky. This is definitely a must have product for me :-) 

MAC Cosmetics Eyeshadows:
For the multicolored part of this tag, I decided to go with my eyeshadows from MAC Cosmetics. I recently depotted my MAC eyeshadows (you can check out my tutorial here), and now I store them in this pink palette from Z.palette. As you probably can tell by looking at my collection of MAC eyeshadows, I love my neutrals but I do have a few colors that I like as well. I have been loving Brule lateley, it's just the perfect highlight/all over the lid shade.

I don't regret depotting my MAC eyeshadows, because now I have them all in one place. Let me know if you want me to do a blog post and show you swatches of the MAC eyeshadows that I have in my collection. If that is something you would like to see, I would be more than happy to do so :-)

Have you done this tag? What tag do you want to see next? :-) Love, Christine♥
