MAC Gilded Green pigment EOTD



I have just one full size MAC pigment, these are just too big AND expensive for my taste ;D The quality is nice but not nicer that my other pigment favorites Aromaleigh etc. Inglot's pigments are quite similar too. Since these are not mineral makeup, there are of course more ingredients and the consistensy is chunky (as in my picture) and feels almost creamy when applied.

Mine is "old jar" which was bigger. You can learn more about the smaller size from Temptalia or Lipstick&Lightsabers. I haven't bought any smaller ones (price is still the same :P).

In fact I really didn't intend to buy even this Gilded Green (from Colour Forms) but I saw a MAC sales woman (at least a year ago) with this color and just loved it SO MUCH. Unfortunately that Chinese girl looked much better with Gilded Green than I do... With my coloring it is "just nice". She used it with grey too but just looked so much better. Damn :D

Omistan vain yhden MACin täysikokoisen pigmentin, nämä ovat vain liian suuria JA kalliita makuuni ;D Laatu on ihan kiva mutta toisaalta ei ylivoimainen verrattuna esim. Aromaleighin mineraaleihin tai Inglotin pigmentteihin. Ja koska kyseessä ei ole mineraali, inci on toki pidempi. Koostumus on kokkareinen (ks. kuva yllä) ja "kostea".

Oma purkkini on "vanha" ja nykyistä suurempi, lisää koosta Temptalian tai Anastasian blogeissa. En ole uutta kokoa vielä ostanut, hinta toki pysyi samana :P

Itseasiassa en alunperinkään halunnut ostaa yhtään MAC pigmenttiä, edes tätä Gilded Greeniä (Colour Forms-kokoelmasta), mutta näin tämän MAC meikkaajalla Hong Kongissa reilu vuosi sitten ja väri oli vain NIIN IHANA. Valitettavasti tämä kaunis kiinalainen nainen näytti melkoisesti minua paremmalta sävyn kanssa :D Minulla sävy on korkeintaan "ihan nätti". Höh.

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...
