SKIN therapy (review)

Hello Loves💕
Lately I've been kind of obsessed  with my skin care and not too long ago I've stumbled upon two products from SKIN therapy-

It is a toner and a cleanser made for sensitive skin, that should have been the first clue as to why I should have never gotten this product. Sadly it does not work for me at all the cleanser is so creamy and heavy that my skin is unable to absorb it and it just kind of leaves residue of my make-up all over my skin so then I use the toner well that was a big disappointment as well it does not help at all it's like rubbing water and not a toner it does not remove the residue of the cleanser and it leaves my skin feeling sticky and not in good condition at all, it has not caused any break outs (thank God) but I have stopped using these products unless I am only in reach of them and only then I use the toner but I really try not to. Now I have nothing against this product it's just simply not for me and not for my skin type.I truly do not remember how much they were but I think they were around £3 each.If you have combination skin and very tough skin I would highly recommend not purchasing these products and if you are looking for any good skin care products check out my previous blogs for advice and help.

Skinology toner (review)

Hello Loves💕
So today I am going to talk about a product that I dearly love and going to be re-purchasing soon.It's a "Skinology" toner-
It is a very strongly fragranced toner and  one it is not recommended for sensitive skin , because it is highly to cause irritation or break out your skin.So for my skin type which is combination and very rough it was the perfect product , short story behind it.I was just starting to look into getting a toner and a cleanser and I did not think much about it when I got it, I think it was £0.98 and I though it was good enough for the start.I then tried it out and it made my skin cleaner than it was ever before, but the only problem is that It can kind of dry your skin out , so if you don't use any moisturizer that may cause further problems.But over all it is an amaizing product for begginers and anyone who is on a budget.

Thank you for reading!
P.s sorry it is such a short review but collge is taking a toll  on me :) more posts should be coming shortly.

Hey guys!

This post will not be anything special or a review about a product. I will simply write, what I have purchased during the 'January Sales' whether it was online or not and whether the item was on sale or discounted with coupons and cards and which shops they are from.

I have purchased a few items from clothing and cosmetics and January has literally left me without any money in my pocket, so I now have to suffer one more week with just £10 in my pocket.. This is probably the most horrible feeling ever, when you have couple of weeks left till 'pay day' and you still go wonder around the shops. LOL

2.
Bershka knitted Squirrel Team jumper

Maybelline colour elixir Caramel Infused 725
Maybelline Colour Sensational Sultry Sand 710

And for visiting modelsown little kiosk in Stratford City Westfield I received a free gift - eyeliner pencil Kohl Pencil - Black (surprisingly very creamy, with a smudger on the other end of the pencil and a lid sharpener!)



4.

Please let me know if you want any items with more information or up-close pictures.

Revolution Make-up London

Hello Loves💕
So I wanna start of by saying that I am personally not a big fan of eye shadows ,they tend to crease and rub off after just few hours of wear!
So last Christmas I was looking around for gifts and I stumbled upon this eye shadow palette-
It looked very nice and the shades look very similar to the "Naked palette" so I did few swatches in the shop and decided to get it as a gift :) But,.. Soon enough my curiosity got to me and I opened the package and tried the shades on my self and wow girls!!,, I Loved it!!! Although it is somewhat shimmery nudes I still love it because these shades are mat-

And the black is so pigmented it actually really shocked me because this palette was £3 and I just though it will be like dark grey when I applied it turns out I was wrong :D and the color is full of bright pigment.
Here is all of the swatches from the palette-

 I would defently recommend this palette to any girl ,because if you are not a fan of eye shadows give it a try and you may just fall in love with it! Also the shadow stays on the eye lid all day without creasing or absorbing into your skin.
I tried a bit of an edgy look with this palette this is how it came out!
It may not be clear enough image but I did kind of winged eye shadow look :) and it stayed all day only washed off when I went to the pool and forgot to take off my make-up :)!!!

This palette is by-REVOLUTION makeup London

Nail Art

Hi Girls,

I am sure that all of you girls like to get your nails done and so do we! Girls Online get their nails done privately, we all go to a lady who has some pretty nice and individual ideas on how to colour the nails and how to make every design unique. Just to also let you know we get gel nails, meaning that the lady that does our nails, she uses a liquid gel to make the nail stronger and then on top she applies gel polish which lasts a very long time. It would easily lasts for about 4 weeks, but I get mine done every two weeks, just to freshen them up.

So here are some of the nail designs we had, I hope you guys enjoy it and maybe try some of them out yourselves.

Maybelline Master Duo Eyeliner

Hola!

First of all, let me just start this off by saying that I am not a fan of eye-liners and not a "Cat Eye" pro, but I am willing to warm up to this idea and learn how to do the perfect 'Cat Eye look'.
As you may guess from previous posts, us Girls Online we like to shop at our favourite drug store 'Boots' and not long ago I made a visit for some other essentials but definitely not an eye-liner. I was just strolling along the make-up counters and was checking out new products, when I came across Maybelline's Master Duo eye-liner, it's a liquid eye-liner with a wand applicator....


 Let's just say that I was quite impressed as the applicator was very different from the usual ones (in a good way), the applicator looked like it would do the job easier when drawing a 'Cat Eye' or just a simple line. I also applied the product on the back of my hand and it looked like it would do the job as the consistency of the liquid felt and looked very promising. So, as already you may have guessed I purchased the eye-liner and I didn't use it for about a month.. Well this is because I don't use eye-liner and I am afraid of using it, which is very silly, I know...

So, for some reason yesterday I got a huge urge to try out the eye-liner and this time, properly try it out and all I have to say is that I was very disappointed. I literally wasted about £6 or £7.. The wand which I really liked in the beginning did what it was supposed to do, with this wand I was able to draw a thicker and a thinner line with just a turn of the wand. However, the liquid dried quickly and with only one stroke it was impossible to fully cover the line, it would leave streaks and it would dry too quickly, meaning that going over the the existing line would cake up and the substance would crumble, even though the eyeliner came of very easily which is always a positive, it's also good when it comes off easily with a make-up wipe not by rubbing your eye with fingers... For me this product was a big NO NO!

So I will upload some pictures below, so that you guys can see how the product looks.

Tattoo experience and after-care .

Hey girls!
ever since I was 16 years old, I was begging my mum for a tattoo. When I found out about tattoo's, that was pretty much when I just knew that I want to get one sometime in my life. SOOO... we went to the tattoo artist to ask about getting one, and unfortunately he told us that they can only do it to people 18 years of age, due to still growing body and organism. I know there are other artists, usually private, who do tattoos to people under the age of 18, with the parent permission, however I decided to wait those 2 years, and properly decide what I wanted to get. After all, this was going to be a picture, on my body for the rest of my life, I didn't want to get something I will most likely regret later in life. Therefore in the mean time, I went with piercings. Yes, I know I'm some needle freak, although you'd have to practically drag me to the doctors who are ready to pin needles in me, but that's just because I have a massive fear of doctors and hospitals. I don't mind piercing my body, I had my tongue pierced, but that's long gone, and 2 years ago, I got my bottom lip pierced. Lalalala... I turned 18 in November! and you can guess what I asked from my parents... Yes, a tattoo. So here is my lovely<3



'Old School Roses' (left outer thigh)
---
(btw, it isn't that bright in real life, this is the lighting, sadly) Many ask me ''What does your tattoo mean?'' and ''Does your tattoo have a meaning to you?'' The tattoo isn't something that I chose which would have a meaning to me personally, I chose it because of the simplicity and pureness of its meaning, and mainly because I love red roses and I just wanted it on me... ''Red roses historically have been considered the symbol of true love or passionate love...'' Many may judge that tattoos should only be done if they mean something to you, however I would disagree with those people, because a tattoo was just something that interested me and I wanted it, and its every ones choice what they do with their body, so my advice to you NEVER listen to others. 
My mum actually tried to get me to change my mind about it, she didn't particularly like the roses, but I strictly told her, that it's my body, and I should put what I want on it, not based on other peoples opinions. 
---
Moving on to the process of getting the tattoo... I got a very good deal with the artist, as he works with my mum in a beauty salon, therefore I got a discount of £100, so the price went down from £360 to £260. When I was making the appointment, he offered me some cream which takes away 70% of pain during the process, I quickly agreed to it, as I am quite scared of the pain, and boy am I happy that I got it! I applied the cream 2 hours before my appointment, and wrapped it tightly with clear cling film. When I got to the salon, the artist showed me a picture he created. I found a picture on the internet of a tattoo I would like, however he changed it up a bit so it wouldn't be exactly the same, and I was happy with it. Moving on, the artist took the cling film off, I didn't feel anything, no numbness or coldness on the area, I was freaking out...''What if the cream didn't work?!'' However, it did, because the pain was very much bearable. At first when he was using one needle to go around the lines, it didn't hurt at all, I was chilled out completely... Here is a pic of how it looked 


He went around the picture with pen, and then applied it to my thigh, and it left a template which he want around in black. 
This is how it looked when it was done. 

Then he went on to colouring it in, using 3 needles. I can't say it hurt too much, as I was pretty much relaxed the whole 2 hours, except the last 10 minutes. The feeling started to irritate me, and I wanted to fidget and move, maybe because the effect of the cream worn off after the 2 hours. I have no idea, but I lived. Luckily. 


After it was all done, he applied sprays and creams and wrapped it up with cling film again. I was then told the steps of taking care of it and so on. I got given a tattoo gel/cream substance that had to be applied 3 to 4 times a day, wash my hands with anti-bacterial soap before applying, and wash the tattoo once a day. When taking a shower I was told not to stay longer than 15 minutes, as the tattoo will get dry if its soaked in water for a long time. Obviously I was told not to touch it for the next two weeks or more, until it heals, and no scratching. That was a hard one, as it got so itchy soon, I couldn't bear it, I actually scratched so badly, one bit started bleeding, and the colour went funny, kind of greyish... Silly me. However I am lucky, as they offer to do a retouch on the tattoo after it heals completely, on the parts that need correcting. So I went in to do it yesterday, and it only took about 2 mins, to go over the bit which I scratched off to make it black. 


p.s the cream I used to heal it... 'Tattoo Goo'

So yeah guys, that's my experience of getting the tattoo. I wasn't very scared to get it as I wanted it so badly, therefore I suggest to you girls out there who want to get one, make sure you think about it well, don't just get anything from the top of your head. Think about the design, the picture, the place on your body, find out the meaning of it, think about how you could cover it up if ever needed (e.g. job interviews), the size, the artist and place you will get it done at, and most importantly...Is it something you will want to have for the rest of your life, even when you're old and all wrinkly? Haha. These things are very important, because many people regret their tattoos after some time, and I heard it hurts much more to get them removed.
