Essence, P2 and Alverde hauls & a little giveaway for my followers

It's always nice to be back home, but I really liked to shop in Germany! I found a lot of clothes for me too and didn't feel like a giant, like in Hong Kong. LOL My favorite place to shop was dm (cosmetics) and Orsay (cheap t-shirts etc).

Thank you so much Marion, Graphology, Izar, SummerBabe Jeannette (The swatchaholic) etc for your recommendations, I got many nice Alverde products :D

Onpa mukava olla taas kotona, vaikka shoppailu Saksassa onkin aina kivaa! Löysin myös ison kansan vaatteita, kaikki mustia *heh*, enkä tuntenut itseäni jättiläiseksi kuten aina Hong Kongissa ;D Suosikkishoppailupaikkojani ovat dm (kosmetiikkaa) ja Orsay (halpoja paitoja yms).
Ostin melkoisesti, Saksa on tunnetusti ekokosmetiikan mekka :D Kirjoittelen lisää tuotteista myöhemmin, nyt takana on vasta pari testikertaa.


Lovely sponges (7.95€), Alverde Rose toner (2.25€) & brushes (7.95€ and 2.45€).


Alverde shampoos (1.95€) & conditioners (2.25€). I've tried apricot shampoo & conditioner so far and those felt VERY nice!


Alverde body lotions (1.95€), body butter (2.95€) and hand creams (1.95€).


I liked this key chain (4.95€) and thought t would be very nice as a necklace...


...and it was :D


Just a few nail polishes :-O Well, the prices were very cheap: Essence nail polishes 1.25€, P2 Color Victim nail polishes 1.55€ and P2 SunLove nailpolishes 1.95€


Some nail art stuff (prices between 1.25-2.45€).


My little Lush haul: Miranda soap, Rockstar soap & Chocolate lip balm.




I also received a lovely package from Lucy, thank you! I won her blog giveaway and now I want more Barry M lipsticks. This feels so nice: it's pigmented, non drying & unscented.

Sain myös ihanan paketin Lucyltä, jonka blogi-arvonnan voitin :) Nyt tahdonkin jo lisää Barry M-huulipunia, tuntui ihanan pigmenttiseltä ja tuoksuttomalta!





And just a little giveaway for you too! I'll have a bigger one later (on May perhaps). Aren't these little makeup suitcases cute? I'll randomly pick one commenter (to any post, not this one) and one follower (both will get one suitcase palette). I'll announce the winners here in my blog in the beginning of April (after I come back from Hong Kong).

How I will choose the commenter?

1. With random.org I'll choose a month (last 6 months)
2. Then I'll choose the day of that month
3. I'll choose (with random.org, of course) the reply to the post. If the comment is mine, I'll choose one after it.

Ja ihan pieni arvonta myös blogini lukijoille! Isompi arvonta tulossa myöhemmin (ehkäpä toukokuussa). En vain voinut vastustaa näitä söpöjä matkalaukkumeikkipaletteja :D Valitsen huhtikuun alkupuolella yhden lukijan ja yhden kommentoijan (mihin tahansa viestiin, ei siis tähän) molemmat saavat yhden paletin.

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...
