BFTE (Beauty from the Earth) swatches & EOTDs

I really shouldn't order any pigments at the moment (=I don't need any :P) but I coudn't help myself... BFTE is a addicting place and I've found some HG pigments from their selection too, like Lucky Me and perfect light violet (Thistle). The formula Crystal used in (part of) her pigments is great: like satin, so soft and opaque.

I mention just my favorites/ the ones I've used in makeups too:

In this swatch there are many different formulas: Elegant is sheer & super shimmery, Calablanca Nights is very sparkly & festive, Seafoam is not completely matte but not shimmery either (plush finish?), most have satiny finish but there is also shimmer in Walking on Water.

-Casablanca nights turquoise glitter on dark base
-GoGreen: light blue-green, smooth and even metallic finish
-Walking on Water is LE



-Suede is lovely neutral
-Livid is a very pigmented plum, gorgeous, but be careful when you try it for the fisrt time :)
-Chenille: soft pink, I really love it!
-Spring Fever: Looks like pink but this has lovely peachy iridescence
-Princess: Perfect princess pink, love it!
-Beautiful is a flattering yellowish color
Aww, Thistle, my favorite light purple EVER! I used Thistle & Iced Violets in this look:






Rain Forest & Walking on Water:






Spring Fever & Livid (Livid is a VERY pigmented color, I used Fyrinnae's Finnegan's Wake to blend):






This was far too light for my taste but here is just to show the colors :) I used Suede & Journey:



 


I'll more swatches after the Christmas, I just too busy now. Hope you liked these EOTDs & swatches :)

  2. Miten sä osaat meikata näin upeasti? Sivuillasi on ilo käydä! Voisitko ajatella joskus pitäväsi jonkun alkeiskurssin tällaiselle aloittajalle/aloittelijoille? =D

  9. These are such beautiful looks! I absolutely love purple and green eye looks so I think the top two are completely stunning :)

    I reckon you can never have too many pigments ♥

  10. The swatches and looks are both beautiful!

    I was wondering (since you have both), what is the difference between Rain Forest and Lucky Me? In your EOTD's they look very similar.

    Thanks!

  11. Thank you Ladies :D I'm sure I replied to this post earlier but it's not her :-O How nice...

    Misty: Heh, en taida olla paras opettaja mutta yritetään :D Kiitos paljon!

    All Made Up: Than you :D Now I'm starting to think that it is possible to have too many pigments ;)

    Jenn: I don't have those pigments with me now.... Probably close but I love green so much ;D I hope I remember to check those later!

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...
