Mum Mum's mini-review, swatches & FOTD

I was quite sure I won't look for new minerals companies from Etsy (I just have too much stuff already :D) but then I went to Mum Mum's site... Well, I just found their site so lovely and Lucy was so nice too :D I ordered some samples and full size of LE color "spring dew" and Orange Sherbet lipbalm. I found the colors beautiful and unique, this company does NOT sell repacked stuff! "With more research and loads of experiments, I developed my own mineral makeup line." Next time I'll try also the hand made soaps.

I didn't take the foundation since it contain silica (I can't use it in foundation) but I found the other products very nice! For example Peach 3 in 1 colors is just divine. I've tried only a few eyeshadows yet but so far I really like these!

Samples are in baggies (5 samples/ 5 USD) and LE full sizes in 5g sifter jars (5 USD). Eyeshadows/3 in 1 colors/blushes are in 10g jars and the price is 7 USD. There is also Limited edition mini size: 5g jar/ 3.5USD. I hope mini sizes will become permanent! Please please please, Lucy :D

If you are international, just send Lucy a message telling what you are ordering and she makes a custom listing for you. Shipping was very reasonble!

Olin jo melko varma, etten katsele enää lisää mineraaleja Etsystä (niin paljon jo ennestään ;) mutta sitten löysin itseni Mum Mum'sin sivuilta... Sivut vaan vakuttivat kivilta ja Lucy oli herttainen :D Tilasin hiukan sampleja sekä täysikokoisen LE sävystä Spring Dew sekä Orange sherbet-huulikiillon. Värit ovat kauniita, eivät varmasti uudelleen pakattua tukkurien micaa! Seuraavaksi testaan firman saippuat.

Pohjaa en ottanut testiin, koska sisältää silicaa (en voisi kuitenkaan käyttää) mutta muut tuotteet vaikuttavat ihanilta! Erityiseti pidin Peach 3 in 1 colorista, jumalainen. Kokeilin vasta muutamaa luomiväriä mutta ainakin toistaiseksi pidän näistä kyllä paljon.

Samplet ovat pusseissa ja pussien laatu on aika ohut (saattavat hajota käytössä, epäilen), 5 samplea on 5 USD ja niitä voi kerralla useammankin satsin. LE luomivärit ovat 5 USD ja koko 5g sifter-purkki. Muuten sävyt ovat 10g purkeissa hintaan 7 USD. Nyt löytyy myös minipurkkeja (5g) joita toivon pysyvään valikoimaan :D Tilaaminen tapahtuu siis niin, että lähettää Lucylle viestin mitä haluaa tilata ja mihin maahan, ja Lucy tekee oman listauksen niistä. Kulut olivat vain muutaman dollarin verran!

Here are the swatches:

Silk Naturals mini-review, lip gloss swatches & EOTD with Charmed

I've been a customer of Silk Naturals nearly two years and the cs has always been excellent. The owner of the company is Karen and she always nice & helpful. My favorites from this company are lip glosses! Silk Naturals has both sheer and more opaque ones, my favorites are very natural ones like: Olen ollut Silk Naturals in asiakas jo lähes 2 vuotta ja asiakaspalvelu firmassa pelaa erittäin hyvin. Firman omistaa Karen, jonka mies on muuten suomalainen ;) Karen on aina vastaillut nopeasti kyselyihini. Omat suosikkini firmalta ovat huulikiillot. Näitä löytyy sekä läpikuultavia että peittävämpiä, suosikkini ovat luonnolliset sävyt kuten: 1. Foreplay (shimmery golden pink) 2. Berry Crush (golden berry, MAC Viva glam V clone) 3. Divine. Oh, my favorite and I couldn't find it from SN website :-O Eek! 4. Darling (peachie pink) These glosses are in slim tubes, I'll try lip gloss wands asap ;) I also liked solid frangrances a lot (Raspberry gingerale & Sexy Vanilla) but may...

shopping in Germany: Alverde & Alterra

Ok, I was in Germany like... in April ;) Well, I bought a lot of Alverde products from DM, the quality is excellent and the prices are VERY affordable! Just a few words about the products and a question. I LOVE Alverde shampoos & conditioners. Most of these products haven't been eco certiified before but I noticed that the Avocado series is now Natrue certified :-O Unfortunately it's not as good as it used to be... Not terrible but not great either, definitely not the product I expected it to be. Yes I know, it's certified now ;) Do you know if Alverde is planning to reformulate all of the shampoos and conditioners? If so, my suitcase will be much lighter in the future. Alverde body butter is THE BEST :D I also like the body lotions. Cranberry hand cream smells SO good... This time I tested some Alterra products from Rossmann too, I must say that I also like these a lot! I tested shampoos, hair conditioner, body lotion, hand cream etc. Just the eye makeup remov...

Mineralissima mineral makeup review

I got some products from Minerallisima for review purpose and for a giveaway :D I have so much mineral makeup that I REALLY can't buy anything anymore so it was great to test a new brand! Mineralissima's website is pleasant to browse and everything seemed very professional. Prices are affordable and so is the shipping. You can also get customer service in Finnish in this company :D And in many other lanquages as well. LOL Tästä postauksesta olisi tullut erittäin sekava kahdella kielellä, joten tällä kertaa vain englanniksi. Hyvä uutinen on se, että Mineralissiman sivut ovat myös suomeksi (ja ei todellakaan google translatella käännetyt ;D). Myös asiakaspalvelua saa Suomeksi! Sivut ovat mukavat selailla ja tuotteet myös todella laadukkaan oloiset. Voin suositella ja tilaan myöhemmin täältä lisääkin testattavaa/ täysikokoisia tuotteita :) Mineralissima foundation 1.2 gives medium (to heavy) coverage on my skin. The color is light (peachy) neutral. I love this foundation...
