NOTD / Maybelline Color Show in Vintage Leather

Hello lovely ladies! A couple of days ago I felt like I needed some new fall appropriate nail polishes. This is one of the three nail polishes I bought. I already owned a few nail polishes from the Color Show Line from Maybelline and I absolutely love all of them so that's why I searched in the Maybelline Counter for a new nail polish. I picked this one up - and it's called Vintage Leather.

First I thought it would be like a really shiny dark grey shade, but after the application I realized that it's a matte shade! Nowhere it said that it would be a matte shade but I didn't thought about the name. Vintage Leather - obviously the finish would be kind of a leather texture. But I'm really happy with my decisions. I didn't own any matte shade so this is just perfect to add to my nail polish collection.
The polish itself is really nice. It applies very easy, it's not too thick and it dries out really quickly. I wasn't really happy with the first paint. But if you apply two coats it looks actually really nice.

After all I'm glad I picked up Vintage Leather and I'm looking forward to use it during fall and winter time! I definitely recommend it!

Have you ever tried a Color Show by Maybelline nail polish? What are your thoughts on matte nail polishes? xx

Garnier Anti-Dark-Circle Eye Roller

Hello lovely people! Today I want to introduce you to the Garnier - Roll-on Anti-Dark-Circle Eye Roller. I've talked about it on some Monthly Favourites and I thought it was time write about this lovely product!

 I have to admit I have dark-circle and I hate them. I get lack of sleep and sometimes it gets really stressful at school so my eyes look really tired. That's why concealer is a must in my makeup routine. I've tried to find a prodcut that actually work on dark circles. I came across this one for about two years ago and love it for everyday use.
 What it should do:
Instantly roll away dark circles. Caffeine Gel + Rollerball energizes and stimulates microcirculation. Lemon Essence brightens. Tinted mineral pigments instantly corrects dark circles.In 1 week: eyes look bright. Is right for you if you want to instantly correct the appearance of dark circles and brighten the skin around your eyes!

All that sounds like this product does wonders to your eyes. And in my opinion in does.

Packaging/Application

The concealer comes in a huge 15ml container. What makes it easy to carry around in your bag. If you take of the closure head you can see a rollerball. The rollerball makes it really easy to apply this under your eyes from the inner corner to the outer corner. I roll it about one to two times. After that I like to blend it in by only using my fingers.

Texture/Coverage/Colour

The consistency is quite thin and liquid so it adapts to my skin very well. The coverage is nice light and luminous so it's good for everyday use as it makes me look more awake.
It is definitely yellow/oranged toned but I suppose because you need that to cancel the blue/purple veins that show through the skin around the eyes. I have the one in the shade 02 - fair

Price/Where to buy

It's available in every drugstore for about £11. You can purchased it in 4 different shades:

 - very fair

 - fair 02 

 - medium

 - dark

What I think

All in one it's a great product that I highly recommend to every one whose dark circles show though the skin around the eyes. It gives a really nice light luminous coverage what is good for everyday use. It does fade a bit by end of the day but that's totally expected. I also love to use it in other areas on my face like around my nose(where I tend to get redness) and on my cheekbones.

the Round-Up

Pros:

- easy to use

- lightens the dark circles around your eyes

- doesn't settle into lines 

- dark circles much less noticeable

Cons:

- should be blended by your fingers to get a natural looking coverage

- brightens more than conceals 

I would love to know if you have dark circles and what products you use to conceal or brighten up the area around your eyes! Let me know! xx

September Favourites!

 Hello people! I can't believe it's already October; this year is going so quickly (there are only 84 days until christmas YAY :) But seriously, where did the summer go? It feels like I was just getting in to that summer feeling(if you know what I mean), only to find the fall knocking at my door.  Anyway I looove fall time and cozy sweaters, hot drinks and just seeing that the leaves change the colour... Is it just me?! Without further ado - my September favourites! :)

Ellite Paris Eye Liner in 01 Black Out
Ushuaia Déodorant 24h in Vanille de Polynésie
Yves Rocher Hand Cream in Vanilla/Lemon
Maybelline New York Baby Lips in Cherry Me
Dr. Fix - On your lips Care in Kiwi & Passion Fruit

I'm not quite a lover of eye liners but I came across this one and I was quite impressed. It stays really long and it really defines my eyes. I'm planning on doing a review later month.

The next product I've been using is this antiperspirant I got this from a friend who visited France earlier this year. This smells divine after vanilla. It doesn't really has a strong scent what I think is really good. If you want to try this out I found a shop who sends this world wide.

An absolutely must-have for me during fall/winter time is hand cream. My hands tend to get very dry so I always carry a hand cream with me. This one from Yves Rocher was released in the Christmas edition from 2012. This hand cream makes my hands incredible soft and the scent is very sweet that makes you feel cozy and festive.

Here it is: the much talked Baby Lips. I only own it for a few weeks because here in Switzerland they're released a bit late but I bought them anyway! I only have to say two things: scent is amazing and love that it leaves a bit of colour on your lips! Definitely worth the hype!

And last but not least Dr.Fix's On Your Lips. My friend bought me this lip balm while she was on holiday in Greece. I really like it but unfortunately I couldn't find a site where they buy it but I will keep an eye out for this and as soon as I find it I'll let you know. :)

What is your favourite season of the year and why? Let me know! Have a wonderful day :) xx
