Mary kay makeup

My daughter's friend's mom sells Mary Kay and now I finally decided to test their make up. I must say that I'm quite impressed. The pigmentation of the eye shadows is good (depends on the shade and finish, naturally) and I REALLY like the samples! It's so nice to test the colors at home.

The eye shadows can be added to a magnetic palette (like the one I have from inglot). The eye shadow pan looks small but I googled the size and it's 1.4g (MAC eyeshadow is 1.5g).

Tyttäreni kaverin äiti myy Mary kay tuotteita ja päätin nyt vihdoinkin testata merkin meikkejä :D Täytyy myöntää, että olin erittäin postiivisesti yllättynyt laadusta! Luomiväreissä riittää pigmenttiä ja laatu on mukavan pehmeä (toki laatueroja on värien/koostumusten välillä, niin kuin kaikissa merkeissä). 
Erityisen iloinen olen näistä sampleista! Oli niin ihana testata värejä kotona rauhassa :) Luomivärinapit saa laitettua magneettipalettiin, itse käytän Inglotin paletteja mutta Mary kaylläkin on toki omansa. 

Yksi nappi maksaa 12€, en vielä ostanut yhtään mutta tämä asia taitaa korjaantua hieman myöhemmin ;) Nappi vaikuttaa pieneltä mutta on kooltaan (1.4 g) kuitenkin hyvin lähellä MACiä 1.5 g).




I also bought a few old LE products (a blush & a lipstick), those were on sale. The colors and quality were very nice on both products. The lipstick is called Taffeta, lovely pink. Very wearable and very moisturizing.

Ostin muutaman meikkituotteen alekopasta, vanhoja LE-tuotteita. Molempien laatu ja väri olivat ihanat. Huulipunan väri on Taffeta, hillityn kaunis vaaleanpunainen. Käyttökelpoinen sävy ja koostumus on kosteuttava.








Soft Sable blush looks lovely and is pigmented. This is also magnetic, I have mine now in Inglot palette :)

Soft sable poskipuna tuli hankittua testaamatta mutta onneksi sävy on hyvä :D Ihastuin ulkonäköön, pigmenttiä on sopivasti myös! Tämäkin voi laittaa magneettipalettiin, nyt saan vihdoin matkaposkipunat myös mukaan :D

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...
