April Collective Haul

This month I have been quite a little naughty girl when it comes to shopping but I'm pretty pleased with what I got my hands on! Read on to see if my purchases are justified ;) The Point shopping complex in Sliema has celebrated its 3rd year and for the occasion, various stores have been offering discounts according to how much you spend so I made the most of it a you will see from the pictures!

Review | St.Ives Apricot Scrub

I have recently changed some of my skin care products and one of the new products in this regard is the St.Ives Apricot Scrub. Up to a couple of months back, I was relying on the Nivea Visage Young scrub to keep my skin looking radiant but for some reason, it was out of stock on multiple occasions so I decided to have at a go at this one instead. With regards packaging, this...

The Exit Interview Series | Volume #19

I was going through my make-up and skin care stash earlier this month to see which products have to be used up and also to check if anything has gone bad. Actually, I found three products that fit the latter category and I am going to start this empties post with them.   First up, Revlon ColorStay Makeup for Combination/Oily Skin in 180 Sand Beige. This is my first ever foundation and I liked...

Monthly Favourites | April

As opposed to the last few months, April has seen me go back to experimenting with colours and different product combinations. Let me show you my favourite products of the month! Starting with skin care, towards the end of March, I placed an order on the Michael Todd website for two cleansers after I saw rave reviews about them on YouTube. Up till now, I really liked Effaclar from La Roche Posay...

NOTW | Spring Blooms

The weather this week kept me in a spring mood and I opted for a floral manicure again. This time I tried the two accent nails look and I used three base colours.  Follow the simple steps to a little garden on your finger tips! 1. Prep nails with a base coat and leave to dry completely.   2. As base colours, I used Wjcon Nail Lacquer N.702 for the thumbs and index fingers, Essence...

Tag | Shopaholic

Here's a fun tag post that I'm sure most of you can relate to! Why not have a go at it yourselves? 1. Would you consider yourself a shopaholic? Although I do shop around a lot, I am not one who will go out shopping everyday but I do love to buy pretty things and if I'm going shopping and I find nothing I will still buy something, even if it's just an accessory so I guess that classifies me...

Review | Joico K-PAK REVITALUXE Bio-Advanced Restorative Treatment

We all know how the story goes...sun, heat styling, loads of products...all this takes its toll on our locks and it's good to treat our hair to a repair treatment of some sort. With my hair being oily, I hate loading it with products as it will turn greasy faster than you can say, well, greasy hair of course! Having said that, I use heat styling tools and a heat protector spray almost everyday...

Review | Catrice Absolute Eye Colour Mono Eyeshadows

One of my favourite products from Catrice are their eye shadows. I have tried different ranges and I have never been disappointed with any of them. Today I will be reviewing some of the shadows from the Absolute Eye Colour Mono range. I have 11 shades in all however, not all are available as 6 of them have sadly been discontinued.   The packaging is pretty simple yet sturdy where...

NOTW: Pink Ombre

I have finally found some time to try ombre nails! I chose pink as I think it is a colour that's easy to work with to create the desired effect and I found that the easiest way to create a nice gradient from one nail to the next is to pick two shades of the same colour, not more than 5 shades apart and mix them in different proportions to obtain the in-between hues. Here's how I did mine:     1....
