Hallo lovely ladies, today I want to talk about the Bourjous Rouge Edition Velvet liquid lipsticks. These are probably one of my favorite lip products out there. I own three of the current collection and I like them all very much. 

Time to Recycle: Empties #14

Hello everybody! A while back, I promised you guys a new empties post because my empties bag was fuller than ever before! I hope you're ready for the post, because it's gonna be a long one. I'll be saying goodbye to lots of hair, face and body products and also some make-up things. Let's get started!

To make this post not tooooo long and boring, I'm going to over all the products quite quickly. 

Kruidvat/Drugstore Haul: June 2016

Hey girls! I'm here today with a very exciting drugstore haul! Kruidvat was having a VIP night last friday with -20% on everything (except book, but don't ask me why). I took the chance to completely go crazy and buy some products I've had my eye on for a while now. I also went a little nuts in the 'matte' liquid lipstick department. 

London Beauty Haul: Boots, Superdrug & TK Maxx

Hello, beauties! How are you guys all doing? Summer has been a busy time for me and I needed to sit myself down and take the time to blog. And god, I missed it! Last week, I went to London with my parents for three days. We did a lot of visiting, walking, eating and I got some time to shop as well.

Ofcourse, you can't go to England without some shopping at Boots and Superdrug. I also discovered TK Maxx, a store where you can find fashion and beauty items for a very low price!

Time To Recycle: Empties #9

The Empties-bag in my bathroom started looking a bit full again so I decided it was time for my favorite blogpost again! This time, a lot of mascara is included because I cleaned out my mascara box and decided it was time to toss a lot of them out. Other than that: face products, hand products, deodorants. I say we get started on recycling!

March Favorites 2015

Hello everyone! How are you all doing? March is over and I'm a bit sad because it's one of my favorite months. But it's time to share my favorites with you girls and I'm happy about that! I don't have a lot of them, because this month, I was really into the 'No Make-up make-up' look so I kept it all very toned down and natural. I also had quite a few days where I wore no make-up at all because my skin was acting a bit weird at times. Let's get started with my favorite products of this month!

The 'I Only Needed 1 Thing' Haul: Spring Edition

You know that moment when you're concealer is running dangerously low and you need to go to the drugstore to get a back-up of it? But then somehow, you end up with a bunch of other stuff... That happened to me today! I needed to repurchase the Maybelline Dream Lumi touch concealer. Just that one product. So you walk into the drugstore... and you see the new line of nail polishes by Rimmel, the new releases from Bourjois and lots of other things. And you just accept the fact that some days, you need to spoil yourself a little bit. Let's take a look at what I got today!

1) Labello Classic Care Lip Balm: Did I need this one? No, not really. I just like these so much and I haven't gotten one in years. They feel so nice on the lips and I really enjoy the smell of these.
2) Bourjois Nude Smokey Eyeshadow Trio in 'Sable Show': Oh my god. I'm not a big fan of Bourjois eyeshadows, but waw! These new trios are so beautiful! There was also another trio with rosy tinted colors but I prefer these golden/taupe shades. They had testers available in store and I was so impressed! These are soft as butter AND very pigmented! Big thumbs up for this trio!
3) Freeman Charcoal & Black Sugar Face Mask: I've tried Freeman face mask before and I really enjoy them.This charcoal and sugar mask really intregued me. I've heard a lot about the purifuing qualities of charcoal. This face mask has two actions: purifying the skin and exfoliation. Can't wait to try this one out later tonight.
4) Maybelline Dream Lumi Concealer in '02 Nude': The only thing from this haul I actually needed. You guys know how much I love this one so I'm not going to bore you guys with talking to much about this one. I was lucky, it was the last one in the store!
5) Rimmel Rita Ora Nail Polish in '322 Neon Fest': How cute do these bottles look with the little flowers? This line of spring colors is absolutely beautiful. Most of them were sold out but I really like this bright pink one. Very nice for spring and summer!

Did you do some shopping lately?

January 2015 Make-up Favorites

February has already begun but I still wanted to share my January favorites with you guys. I don't do these type of posts often because I feel like I'll always show the same products. I want to do these more often this year so I'll try to write them each month or maybe every two months. Let's get started on the products!

I have a mix of old favorites and new discovered items. A bit of makeup, a bit of skin/hair care. I did not include nail polishes in this post because I haven't worn a lot of nail polish this months. I gave my nails some time to be 'free'. But don't worry, I have some NOTD's coming soon ;)

December Kuidvat VIP Sale: Drugstore haul

Hey sweeties! About a week ago, the Belgian Drugstore Kruidvat was having a VIP sale night, where they stayed open late and gave a -20% discount to everything in store! My friend Ynee got a ticket from a friend who worked there. I was so excited, this was the ideal time to pick up some thing I needed and to try out some new thing at a discount!

Product Empties: July 2014

Oh, that feeling you get when you finish up a product. I've been collecting my empties for a very long time now - So much stuff was almost empty at the same time! - and I can finally write this. It's going to be a long one, so you know what to do: get a snack and something to drink and ENJOY.

Battle Of The Mint/Blue-Green Polishes

Hey sweeties! Today I'm back with a 'battle of the mint/bleu-green polishes'. I did one like this about a year ago, with a comparison on my taupe nailpolishes and I really liked writing that post. This time, I'll compare my mint polishes. I went trough my collection and I must admit, I never realized I had so many mint greens colors. I'll tell you about the formulations, colors and which ones are my favorites.

Bourjois 24h Color Edition Eyeshadows Review

Hey everybody! My exams are finished since yesterday and I'm ready to start blogging again! :D I did a bit of shopping yesterday and at Kruidvat, they were having a sale on Bourjois products. Perfect time to try out the 24h Color Edition cream eyeshadows!

The first thing that popped into my head was: 'This is the Bourjois version of the Maybelline Color Tattoo cream eyeshadows.' I really like those eyeshadows, especially the 'On and on bronze' color. I'll tell you know, they are different. But more about that later!

Summer of Bloggin', July 21: My Current Summer Favorites!

Hello girls! We are halfway July and I wanted to show you my current favorite products to use. I've never done a 'favorites' post, but I wanted to start with this one. July is not over but I know I won't be using other products because I've reached for this almost every day now, unless I'm not wearing any makeup. It's very hot here in Belgium now, so I like to keep it simple.
