Deodorant isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when I’m thinking of what products to get while in Japan. Yet there I was, watching this bright and colourful tv ad on the metro about this cute little deoball. People were dancing, singing and showing off their pits like there was no tomorrow and I was like ‘yes, gimme that!’ Japan will do that to you I guess.. View Post
A brand that releases a product with UK skincare guru Caroline Hirons has got my attention. Especially when it involves double cleansing, which I am a firm believer of. In case you have no idea what I’m talking about; the double cleansing method is a PM routine where you clean your face with an oil based cleanser to get rid of makeup and sunscreen. Afterwards you follow up with a second cleanser (often water based) to get rid of any leftover gunk. For the first time (or at least that I know of) the double cleanse is wrapped into one product; the Pixi + Caroline Hirons Double Cleanse. View Post
Korean eyeshadows aren’t exactly known for their intense pigments. I wouldn’t say they are inferior in quality compared to Western makeup, but a difference in cultural preferences is a more likely factor. Korean eyeshadow looks are more than often a light wash of colour with a ton of shimmer rather than the pigmented smokey eyes we’re used to. There are however exceptions to that rule that showcase that South-Korea is indeed very capable of producing eyeshadows that pack a punch if they want them to. 3CE (or 3 Concept Eyes) by Stylenanda is one of those brands. Loved by teens and millennial alike, this mid-range brand has recently been acquired by L’Oréal and is ready to take the world by storm. Today I’ll be reviewing one of the star products from the Mood Recipe line, the 3CE Multi Eye Color Palette in #Overtake. View Post
After years of sitting alongside other drugstore staple brands, Gosh Copenhagen (previously Gosh Cosmetics) was pulled from the Belgian drugstore. In this post I’ll be taking a closer look at the Danish drugstore brand and some of the best and worst products I have tried from them. View Post
Last Halloween I posted a review of the TCFS Pumpkin 24K Gold Mask, this year I’ve had a closer look at the popular Too Cool For School Pumpkin Sleeping Pack. For those unfamiliar with k-beauty and its sometimes confusing terms; a sleeping pack or mask is a moisturizer you apply at the very last step of your skin care routine before you go to bed. The Pumpkin line is a very popular one for Too Cool For School, and the Pumpkin Sleeping Pack plays a big part in that success. View Post
When it comes to eyeshadow, I’m a big magpie. The result of collecting makeup over the years is an absolute abundance of shimmery and glittery eyeshadows. Now that I’m older and more experienced in makeup, I definitely value matte shadows more than I once did. They’re absolute essentials when it comes to blending shades together and defining the crease. To complete my collection I went on a hunt for some nice matte shadows and found the Clarins Ombre Eyeshadows. View Post
