MAC Glitter & Ice: Shimmermint & Fresh Ice Mineralize eyeshadows


Fresh Ice has my favorite MAC Mineralize consistency... Fresh Green Mix is also one of my favorites. I wish all the Mineralizes would be like this: great pigmentation & smooth quality! Mineralizes always have great shimmer but some are even gritty and the fallout.. But with a good primer they work better :D Fresh Ice, however, is divine. The color is fresh and icy, slightly pink and very cool. 

Fresh Ice Mineralize-luomivärissä on suosikkilaatuni MAC Mineralizessa, mm. Fresh Green Mix on samaa satiinisen hohtava, pigmenttistä ja pehmeää laatua. Kunpa kaikki olisivatkin tätä samaa! Osa on tosiaan kovin glitterisiä ja leviävät naamalle... Hyvän primerin kanssa nekin (yleensä) pelittävät kuitenkin. Fresh Ice on tosiaan aivan mahtava. Väri on raikas ja jäinen, hieman vaaleanpunertava ja todella viileä.





The veins in this mineralize look like flames :D





I bought Shimmermint too... The color was just too pretty! The quality is not good, unfortunately. This wasn't opaque enough even with a good primer (and I know how to pack pigments/eyeshadows!). Not enough applied wet, either. Maybe over other eyshadow as a shimmer? The color is icy cool, minty aqua.

ostin myös Shimmermintin... Väri on upea! Valitettavasti laatu onkin sitten ihan kammottavinta Mineralizea :/ Ei peittänyt  kunnon primerin kanssa vaan hile levahti pitkin poskia (ja väittisin saavani suurimman osan luomiväreistä kuitenkin toimimaan hyvin!). Ei ollut paljoa parempi edes kosteana! Ehkä tosien luomivärin päällä vain hohdetta tuomassa? Kokeilen vielä Morning Frost- paint potinkin kanssa. Väri on jäinen minttu.

Shimmermint over Bare Sturdy Paint Pot. This was my favorite but there were still glitter all over my face... It looks nice on browbone too.

    Fresh Ice looks cool on you, unfortunately it is too light for my skin colour (although I'm not super fair, I'm still quite fair, lol)! So it looks really obvious on me and I can't pull it off. But I actually bought Shimmermint, I haven't used it yet, but I will soon :)

    Fresh Ice looks like it'd be beautiful inner corner highlight :)

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...
