Catrice "Frozen Rose" lipstick review

Hello everyone! Today I'm reviewing another super budget product. I'm talking about a lipstick by Catrice called "Frozen Rose". I normally don't wear a lot of pink lipstick but I got this one from a friend and it looked quite nice. Perfect for summer (if we're ever gonna get a summer here...)!


This is what the lipstick looks like. Just like all the regular Catrice lipsticks, it's in a black tube that has a sticker on the bottem with the colour of the lipstick and the name on it. The name "Catrice" is also pressed into the lipstick, which is a nice detail. They do this with all their lipsticks and I love that! So cute!


Here is a swatch of the lipstick. Luckely it's not a lipstick that dries out your lips. I don't really like it when lipsticks do. This lipstick has a nice creamy texture and it smells lovely too! I do like the colour of the lipstick as well. It's not too overwelming. Not too dark, not too nude. I think this would look great on a lot of people!

Hello you guys! I put up a post before on this subject but I just wanted to remind you. As you all know Google Reader will go away.
I just hit a little over 100 followers so it wouldn't be very nice if I lost them all now. That's why I want to link you to my Bloglovin' account once more, so that you can go and follow my blog on there.


I'd like to see you all on Bloglovin'! Thanks for following!

EOTD: Wings!

Hello everyone! How are you doing?
I think I mentioned in one of my previous posts that lately I've been trying out a lot of different, new looks. Today I have another one to show you! I hope you're not getting bored!


 

 


The two colours on the left are two colours from my Essence eyeshadow palette. They are the two eyeshadows on the right. The swatch all the way on the right is the lightest colour from my Kelly Brook palette.


After applying eyeshadow base, I applied the colour from my Kelly Brook palette on my eyelid first. Next I used the silver colour from my Essence palette in the first part of my crease and the brown colour on the outer part. I wanted to keep it neutral so I didn't apply much of the brown, of course, you can always build it up if you'd like.

Next I applied eyeliner (Liquid ink eyeliner by Essence) and mascara (by Essence as well).



My wing went missing during the evening, haha! I keep on rubbing in my eyes and that's what you get then...



Thanks for reading! Let me know what you think!

Weekly Diary

Hi you guys! It's been so long since I did a Weekly Diary! I did kind of miss it! So much has happened over the last few weeks!


First of all, my cat went into labor two weeks ago! We now have three little adorable kittens and it's unbelieveable how fast they grow! They are so beautiful, I wish they could stay small forever!

The weather has been getting really good as well. For the moment, we're stuck with a little storm but before that it has been insanely hot and sunny outside, which makes everyone a lot happier! I had a lot of strawberries that week!

 

And then I had exams, of course I didn't write that much during the exams but I did try not to keep you waiting for two whole weeks so every now and then I posted some new messages for you to read!

 

My "to review" box got fuller and fuller every single day! I'm glad I finally have some free time to start working on it!


During the exams, we grabbed a bite once in a while. This picture is taken at McDonalds, I had pin curls and a flower in my hair, and I was so proud of it haha!
The fiar flower is by H&M, in case you are wondering! I could talk lots and lots about things that happened to me during my exams but I don't want to bore you all!


 Also I got a new plant and it's growing quite fast! Look how adorable! I love to see things grow!

I also got Instagram! Did you check it out already?

EOTD: Bronze

Happy Saturday you guys! I have been experimenting with my makeup a little bit lately because I wanted to find some new looks. Normally I wear all the colours from one palette but I decided that today I wanted to combine a few colours that are not in thesame palette.

I came up with this bronze look today and I was really excited about it so I decided to share it with you guys. Here are the products I used: 


I used the Yves Rocher eyeshadow (Or cuivré) on my lid. Then I applied the left Essence eyeshadow (Party All Night) in my crease, blended and applied the right Essence eyeshadow (Metropolitan) in my outer "V". I went over it with the bottom left brown colour from my Color Magic eyeshadow kit and used the center pink for my inner tear duct. The white colour in the palette was used as a highlight.

Next I applied my Liquid ink eyeliner by Essence and mascara by Essence. Done!

Essence "It's popul-art" blush from the Vintage District collection (review)
