Versace trends 2014

A glimpse of the Versace world of bags and shoes from current collection: magnificent! Where are they appropriate for wearing? the creator says EVERYWHERE! :) And I have to agree..

YSL - Rouge Pur Couture a Levres

YSL - Rouge Pur Couture a Levres - or lip perfection in just a few strokes. No joke! Right now, there's an open competition between Dior Addict and this lovely discovery. I already got 2 shades I'm using on occasion or on a daily basis, and I don't think I'm going to stop here ;). You use it and voila: you get persistent color, gloss and hydration - all in one. And if you use a color from the Rebel Nudes collection, loss of color it's done gradually, in a very pleasant way. So, Bravo, YSL! This is another beauty element we cannot do without so easily! :)

Estee Lauder - Double Wear Mascara

Estee Lauder - Double Wear Mascara - this is a very nice mascara, perfect for daily use. It gives a natural lengthening and perfectly definition of the eye lashes. It fixates quite nicely and because of its resistance, it doesn't smudge nor blackens the eyelids, as it happened to me with some types of mascara from Lancome or YSL. Beware, this mascara does not necessarily confer volume - it's mainly for daily use, destined to lengthen and define eye lashes. I have no critic except that, so far I found it difficult to remove it, and I wouldn't put it all on my eye make up remover.

Spring-summer 2014

If images could talk, then we would listen to stories of all kinds, from romances to science-fiction. I can only admire the spring-summer collection of Diane von Fustenberg. From diffuse colors, botanical prints and layers of sheer vail to straight lines and geometrical prints. You can always find yourself in one of those next outfits, unless you want too pass unnoticed. :)

Helena Rubinstein - Eye Prodigy Powercell

Helena Rubinstein - Eye Prodigy Powercell - enters the category of latest good cosmetics I've tried. Concentrated moisturizer, it soothed the dry skin sensation around my eyes and even smoothed the appearance of fine lines. Although it takes a little longer to sink into the skin, I was fortunate enough not to have my eyes sting from that. It's quite an ok moisturizer, it does what it says and I recommend it to anybody that has the purchasing possibility and willingness :)

Clarins - Instant Eye make up reomover

Clarins - Instant Eye make up remover - is by far one of the worst makeup removers I've tried. Forget about fast melting mascara/eye shadow or even proper cleansing, and say hello to inconsistent cleaning, mascara crumbles and a world of effort to remove daily makeup. Can this be right? I've tried it 3 times so far and the result was a disaster each and every time. Maybe it's incompatible with Estee Lauder mascara? I don't really know what to say, except that this product receives a big NO from my side. The only positive thing is that it didn't make my eyes burn.
