Clinique City Block

Clinique City Block is a classic: I even used this when I was a teenager! It works perfectly under makeup (also mineral powder) and alone. Makes skin matte (well, at least "not shiny") and gives hint of color (not much but just enough to even the skin tone slightly). I have used SPF25 for years and now I bought trial size of SPF40 from Hong Kong.

This is not enough to wear on the beach, it's a "city block".


Cliniquen City Block on klassikko: käytin tätä jo teini-iässä ja siitä on kulunut jo sentään muutama vuosi ;D Tuote toimii hyvin meikin alla (myös mineraalimeikin) ja toki yksinäänkin. Tuote jättää ihon kiillottomaksi (tuntuu kuin sisältäisi puuteria) ja antaa samalla hieman väriäkin (sen verran, että ihon sävy tasoittuu hieman). Olen käyttänyt SK 25-versiota vuosia ja nyt Hing kongista ostin testikoon SK 40:stä. 


Tämä on tosiaan "City Block" eli ei aurinkorannalle mutta kiva lisäsuoja kaupunkikäytössä!

  1. Minustakin kiva, mutta sävy on minulle vähän tumma.

    1. Tummallakin iholla varmaan aika outo... Yllättävän paljon tässä on väriä :)

  2. I can't work out what I like more. The sunblock or the kitty! I love city block but I tend to get it in SPF 40 due to the high amount of UV that comes through in my neck of the woods. The fact that it doesnt feel sticky or masklike is also a boon.
    My cat seems to do the same thing when I show her my purchases, unless its yogurt/KFC/fish n chips etc. Any food I have is HERS.

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...
