My mom wanted to have my Lavera Blackcurrant lip balm (and she loves it too) so I needed a new one :) I decided to test Strawberry but unfortunately I don't like it nearly as much I liked Blackcurrant. This is ok too, but the other had a better smell (this smells fruity but not exatly what I expect strawberry to smell) and it also gave some color, not much but some, this doesn't give "any" color. Äitini halusi Laveran Blackcurrant lip balm ini (tykkää siitä myös paljon), joten tarvitsin itselleni uuden. Kokeilunhalusta päädyin testaamaan mansikka-versioita mutta valitettavasti en tästä läheskään niin paljoa pidä... Oikein hyv¨ä on tämäkin, toinen vain tuoksui mielestäni paljon paremmalta ja se antoi myös hieman väriä, tämä taas ei juurikaan.

I've been looking at these Lavera lip balm s for years but somehow never tried them... Now I heard good things about these tinted ones and decided to give them I try ;) I got blackcurrant first but I have a feeling that I'll buy several others from this series later too! There were at least Strawberry, Soft Rose, Pearl and Soft Bronze versions available. This smell SO GOOD, like real blackcurrants! It also gives some color (cranberry colored, very sheer, no shimmer) and is moisturizing too. I like to use these type of balms over lipstics, for example MAC gives lasting color but I still want to add some gloss/balm over it later and this works well. I don't think I'll buy untinted versions, I have better lip balms but as a tinted version, this is very nice! The product is BDIH certified and inci looks good but contains carmine & beeswax (so not for vegans). I think Santa will give my daughter the Soft Rose version and if the Strawberry version smells as good as t...

I got my HiFi Cosmetics order a few weeks ago and once again, these are SO beautiful! Veronica creates such a lovely colors and HiFi is one of my favorite MMU companies for sure :D HiFi Cosmetics in tilaus tuli jo viikkoja sitten ja sain vihdoinkin swatchattua nämä kaikki ihanuudet. HiFi on tosiaan yksi suosikkifirmoistani, Veronican pigmentit ovat niin kauniita! Gin&Sin Lip glaze is a sheer peachy-golden color but so pretty! This color is very natural, I like the scent (reminds me of vanillin but I'm so poor in describing scents... It's nice anyway :D). The consisncy is nice too, maybe I could call it a bit "slippery" :) I like how these feel on the lips and the smell is delicious. Size is 5.9 ml and price 6.99 USD. Spotlight lip glaze sävyssä Gin&Sin, todella luonnollinen ja läpikuultava. Tuoksu on ihana tulee vaniliini mieleen (mutta olen ihan surkea tunnistamaan tuoksuja, hyvä tuoksu nyt ainakin kyseessä :D ja tuntuu jotenkin "liukkaalta" hu...

I really like Mum Mum's Crafts ! Lucy is always so helpul and products are also just excellent, I think this was my third order from her. This time I got lip tints, lip balm, soap and a few 3 in 1 pigments. Pidän todella Mum Mum's Craftista niin tuotteiden kun omistajankin suhteen :) Tämä taisi olla kolmas tilaukseni Lucylta ja tällä kertaa ostin huulirasvoja, huulikiiltoja, saippuan ja muutamia 3 in 1-pigmenttejä. The nail polish is P2 Color Victim "222 Artful" Natural lips Om nom nom :D Delicious tnted lip balms, no bad smell/taste and feels smooth (I don't like gritty formulas) & buttery (soft but not too soft either). Very nice! Toffee is almost invisible, Berry smooth is beautiful natural color. Nam nam :D Kerrassaan herkulliset värilliset huulirasvat, ei pahaa makua/hajua, tuntuu sileältä ja pehmeältä (en tykkää "röpölöisistä" huulikiilloista) & sulaa huulille (ei liian kova eikä liian pehmeä). Ihania siis! Toffee on hyvin hento väriltään,...

It has been a while since I've ordered from Lily Lolo ... I've been very happy with their customer service (very professional) and quality. I have some of their products: The foundation (very good, light to medium coverage), Blush Away (green corrector, works very well) and a blush (Rosy Apple, one of my autumn favorites). I also had a few of their eyeshadows but then I found companies with a zillions of eyeshadows and didn't order more. Unfortunately there are no eyeshadow samples available anymore, but other products have samples. This time I wanted to test their lipglosses and bought a full size of a blush too. En ole pitkään aikaan tilannutkaan Lily Lololta, vaikka olen ollut erittäin tyytyväinen sekä laatuun että asiakaspalveluun :) Muutamia tuotteita minulta jo löytyykin: meikkipohja (kevyt-medium peittävyys), Blush Away (vihreä punaisuudenpeittäjä) sekä poskipuna (Rosy Apple, kiva sävy varsinkin syksyllä). Muutama luomivärikin löytyi mutta sitten löysin muita, nii...

Ärsyttääkö liioitteva kosmetiikkamainonta? Laita nimesi adressiin ! Yep, I'm in LOVE! I just got my lip glosses from Glamour Doll and these are just perfect :D -not too shimmery -not sticky -moisturizing -sheer (if you want very pigmented lip glosses, these are not for you) -lovely scents (quite strong though but I like it a lot) -no unpleasant taste (these have a taste but I like it :D) It's of course very personal which lipglosses you like but the mini size is a good way to test the product :) Very often I don't like the taste or the scent, but I think it's my personal problem. LOL I'll post lip swatch of Scene Queen tomorrow. Set of 5 lip glosses 15 USD (mini 3.5 ml) or 32 USD (regular 5.9 ml), including shipping. You can also buy these separately, 4 USD mini or 8 USD regular. Jee, nämä Glamour Gloss it ovat paljon ihanampia kuin osasin toivoakaan :D Ihan täydelliset makuuni: -ei kovin hohtavat -ei tahmaiset -läpikuultavat (ei siis voimakasta väriä haluaville) ...

Warning: SoBe Botanicals can be VERY dangerous to your wallet! I got my order a few days ago and I want order some more ;) Owner of the company, Lex, is just wonderful. We were emailing, because my order got lost... The great thing was that it arrived this week, only over 2 months after it was sent :D December is not the best month to order, I've had the same problem every year. I liked especially the lip products and the best thing about this company is that you can choose the scent yourself! Varoitus: SoBe Botanicals voi olla todella vaarallinen kukkaroillesi! Tilaan mahd. pian lisää ;) Firman omistaja, Lex, on todella ihana. Meilailimme, koska pakettini hukkui... Hieno juttu on se, että se saapui lopulta, vain pari kuukautta maailmalla reissanneena :D Joulukuu on sitten ihan vihoviimeinen aika tilata, joka vuosi sama juttu! Pidin erityisesti huulituotteista (joita on kaupassa paljon) ja parasta on se, että moniin tuotteisiin voi valita tuoksun itse! VitaSticks lipstick, this ...
