August favourites

Hello Everyone, 

I have been trying to do a favourites post for like three months and only now I had enough patience to do it. I always miss my opportunity. 
I love watching and reading monthly favourites as it is just simple way to find out a lot more products and also get a real opinion. 


1. 'The Sky is everywhere' Jandy Nelson 
First up is this book. I took probably a week to read this, not because it wasn't a good book but because I was too busy to read it. 
This books is from Zoella's book club, hence it has a sticker which I couldn't get off. I do have the whole bunch and I must say, I love them all. Young adult section is my favourite to read and I just loved this one. It had everything: love, pain, hurt, lies and interesting setting. I will not say much but all I can say is this is a story about how a girl is trying to deal with her life after her sister dies. 
My sister is only little and I am not that close with her as we live in two different countries so I don't know how would I deal with her loss but most probably not in the same way. Anyway it is a lovely read and I recommend. Also if you are a musician there is a great deal of music in there. 


2. Moschino Cheap & Chick 'I Love' perfume. 
I received this as a little present from my cousin. It is a fresh summery scent with a little kick. 
Although this one is a little hard to find at the shops it does have an amazing offer on Amazon. 



3. Clarins Instant Light Lip Comfort Oil 03. 

A long and fancy name for a lip oil. I have made a blog post about one before and I wasn't that much impressed with it. Recently I realised that I almost finished my honey lip oil so I bought one in red berry scent. 
I continuously reach for it. If I see it I always put it on. I just love it on my lips. I couldn't say that the oil made my lips magical, I much prefer Cremex when I need magic but in a long run I love this. It smells nice and it feels nice on your lips and it stays on your lips for a long time. Talking about scent I much prefer Red Berry over other two (Honey and Raspberry). I just think it smells like sweets and brings me back to the childhood.  
It is priced at £19. 


4. Sun, Traveling, Spain, Holidays. 

As from title you can understand that I went (or still am) to Spain. I am here as an Au Pair and I will be doing a post all about it after my time here is finished. 
In August, Spain is boiling. It was over 30 degrees all the time which means I get to much sun. 
I was always a winter girl. I love snow, and frost, and cold, and winter clothes and layering. But now I love the sun. I love to wake up and see the sun through my window. I must say I got used to the hot weather and even though I still get hot I now can stand the heat. 
Also I got a lovely tan which I am very attached too and I will be crying my eyes out when it fades. 
Now travelling, well everyone loves travelling. I love the airports, I love the plaines and flying and everything in general. I love the duty free and restaurants. Just love it all.


5. NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream. 

I LOVE NYX make up. They have such a good range and so many different colours to really suit everyones needs and wishes. They are like a pro brand with the most affordable prices. As it has all the blushes and contour and 50 different brow products (well not 50 but you get me).
If you haven't tried anything from NYX I highly recommend. My favourites are their lip products (I have a few types and I love them all) and their eyeshadow pans. I haven't tried other things from NYX so I cannot comment on them. 
This one is matte lipstick that dries and sets. However, it doesn't set as dry as many other liquid lipsticks and it does come off easily. This has a look of a liquid lipstick but the formula of a normal lipstick. 
This one is in colour Cannes and it is a nude colour with a little brown undertone. 


6. Bobbi Brown. 

I heard million things about Bobbi Brown but I never got to use it until now. Let me tell you something. This is amazing. I love the bronzer in Golden Light (£28.50) It gives such a nice colour and it stays for the whole day. It also changes a little bit throughout the day to give you the most beautiful bronzed look. Honestly worth the money! 
I love the eyeliner too, it is long wearing and apparently it doesn't move. Of course on me it doesn't wear long and it always transfers and runs as all of the other eyeliners do. However, the texture of this is amazing. It is thicker than MAC Black Track and it has more play time. It dries matte and very black. It costs £19 which is less than the MAC one and I think it is better than MAC as well.


7. Oval Brush.

Everyone has been raving about these Artiste Oval Brushes. I don't have that much money to spend on a set or even a brush so I got this one from Amazon for £1,70. I must say, this is insane. I can only imagine how much more insane the originals are, but right now this one will do too.  It gives full coverage with just the tiniest amount of product. The only downfall is it is too small for foundation. Of course I can use this too but it will take too much time and effort. 
I use this brush for the concealer. 



8. Sleek Matte Me. 

I am obsessed with these. I have recently done a post about these, so if you want to know more, here's the link. 


9. Lancome Hypnose Drama. 

What can I say. This is one of my favourite mascaras. On a more expensive side (£23.50) but it does everything. It brushes my lashes, lengthens them and adds volume. I love the bend wand and the fact that the bristles are shorter at the front and back and longer on the sides. The shorter bristles applies the product and also adds length while the longer bristles brushes and gives you a nice finish. 


10. Essence lip gloss. 

These are super affordable, high glosses in very nice and neutral colours. There are some brighter colours in the collection too but also very nude ones. 
These were about £2 although I cannot find them online, they do sell it in Walkinsons and probably Asda or other supermarkets. 
If you want a nice cheap lipgloss I highly recommend these! 


11. Daniel Sandler Watercolour Blushers. 

Honestly I cannot get enough of these. They are so worth the £15.50 as you get so much product it would last you a lifetime. I just love it; the colours, the range and the finish. 
You can blend this out to have just a light wash of colour with some shimmer or you can intensify it.
Sandler also sells in it samples (£2 each) as well. You get a 1ml sample but I must say that 1 ml will last you a long time and if you have them all you will not need another blushes and only one drop is enough for both cheeks. 


12. Lipstick by Daniel Sandler. 

Last but most certainly not the least. Keeping with the Sandler theme this is the best lipstick I tried. The colour is drop dead gorgeous on your lips. When I saw it in the tube I was a bit disappointed. It looked liked a vintage red which I wasn't that happy about but once I applied it I was in love with this colour. It doesn't bleed, it is so pigmented and it last forever. Super moisturizing and just beautiful and a must in your make up bag. 
Priced at £13.25,  Casablanca is the best colour ever!!!! 

What are you favourites this month? 

Love Izabele

Nude lips



Hi there, 

We all know that Matte lips are a huge thing right now. Everyone is looking for the best liquid lipstick and the make up companies bring out more liquid lipsticks although many fail there are some pretty darn awesome ones too. 
For example Sleek is killing it with the matte lipsticks. I bought my first Matte me in Party Pink (which is a coraly red) about 3 years ago and I though it's the best thing ever. 
Now Sleek has more colours than when I first bought it. Nudes, pinks, and darks. 
I have got this in Bittersweet and it is a nude pinky shade. Very wearable everyday and with both heavy make-up and natural make-up. 
The other colours I have is Old Hollywood (which is dark red), Birthday Suit (which is very nude).
It doesn't smell of anything and it does stay on pretty long time unless you eat. 
I feel like this doesn't need to top up during your day as when you top up it can become crusty and weird. I only top up after a meal I had as the majority of lipstick is gone. 
The price of this is £4.99 and I think this is the best one you can get from the drug store. 
I haven't tried any of the more luxury brands but if this works why waste any more money? 
I highly recommend this lipstick if you are looking for something affordable. 

What is your favourite liquid lipstick?

Collab Day

Kiko Collab



Hello Everyone, 

This post is a little different. I am making this post in collaboration with one of my closest friends - Audrey. She has a blog as well where she talks about beauty and beauty in music industry. Please go and give her some love you can find here here!
We wanted to make a post about Kiko products. I have this one which is actually one of my faves. I love Kiko for their lipsticks and nail polishes. They have every colour of nail polish in their collection however, their lipsticks are laking some berry tones. If you know me I love my lipsticks to be bright. 
I am actually not sure if you can find this lipstick anymore. Some shops do sell their old stuff and some have completely got rid of their old things. I also don't remember the price of these as I bought them on a sale but I am pretty sure they are no more than £6. 
These are so lovely their texture is so light but so moisturising. It feels like oil on your lips but the pigment is so strong you hardly need much of the product.
Because it is like oil it might move a lot so I recommend wearing a lip liner underneath. 
This colour is just plain gorgeous, it is so pigmented you truly are wearing a perfect dark red lip. 
Because it comes in this pencil tube I thought you only get as much product as you can see but I was wrong you can sharpen this and use it again and again. 
This is a perfect lip balm with lipstick qualities! 

What are you lipstick faves? What do you look for in a perfect lip colour?

Lipstick pencils


This post is going to be a little pointless as I have no idea how much they are or where you can get them but if you see them anywhere please give them a second look because they are amazing. 
I have got these as a present from my friend and I just could not post about them. 
On the tube it says that they are made in Germany and it also say that two of them are from Forever 52 an the third one is from Miss & Mrs. I have them in 4,8 and 1 colours and these are really pigmented, really matte lipsticks. Number 4 is really nice berry colour, number 8 is a mix between brown and berry colour, I think this will look nice with heavy eye make up. Number 1 is corally orange and it is very flattering every day colour.
The Forever 52 ones smell like playdoh but I really love the smell of playdoh so I am not complaining. Miss & Mrs smells kind of weird but not off putting also once you put them on your lips you really can't smell anything. 
These are long lasting they do come off a little when you eat but they are kiss proof so they will stay on the whole day and then you will need to use make up remover to take it off. 

If you see them anywhere please let me know?

Maybelline Red Lips #3


Another Maybelline product I've tried was this Color Drama Lipstick in pencil tube. I loved that it is a wooden tube as it will sharpen nicely than those plastic pencil tubes. Actually are you suppose to sharpen those weird plasticky tubes? 
The colour of this is  Red Essential and the price is £4.99. It is really pigmented and so easy to apply because you don't need a pencil. This lipstick has a matte kind of finish and it smells really nice and refreshing. In fact I think it smells like Hubba Bubba chewing gum. 
I just love this lipstick, the colour is so pretty and it is easy to use or carry it around it also wears nicely but it wipes of easy. 
If you are looking for something to carry on you I would recommend to check it out. It comes in many colours (nude and bright) and you can find it pretty much everywhere. Actually one of the colour is called Berry Much which I haven't seen but it is such a pretty berry colour, I will be on a hunt for that one. 

What Maybelline lipsticks have you tried and what can you say about them?

Maybelline Red Lipstick #2


I have actually never owned a Maybelline lipstick. I have heard good things about but I would only reach for their mascaras. What a mistake that was. 
I got to try two Maybelline products and I love them to bits! 
This lipstick is form their NewYours ColourSensational Lipcolor range and the colour of this lipstick is Pleasure Me Red. The price is £6.99. 
Oh My... I love this lipstick. It is so creamy and rich and pigmented. The colour is so beautiful. It is red but darkened red and just so sexy. The finish of this lipstick is between glossy and matte. It is kind of matte but it has the smallest amount of gloss and it is just iusgfovuhiqpj... 
Another thing I noticed is that whenever I wear this my teeth look whiter, that is due to a lot of blue colouring in the colour mix of the lipstick. 
I also think that this would suit a younger skin as well as more mature skin. By young I do not mean 14. 
I must say this is one of the best drungstore lip product I have ever tried. I recommend this to everyone.

What is your go to Maybelline product? What is your favourite drugstore lipstick?

Topshop Red Lip #1


I have heard so so so so many good things about Topshop make-up but I have never tried any of it. I was on feelunique website and I bought this red wine lipstick. I thought the colour is so pretty and it is also matte which I like. Also if you have small lips and you want them to look bigger always go for Matte products. 
Many people might not agree with me but I was not impressed. I thought it was highly overpriced for what the product is. I like the packaging and I love how it feels in you hand but I don't like the product. It stains the drier bits of your lips darker than the rest of your lip, it doesn't go on as smoothly or as pigmented as you would like. Although it doesn't dry your lips, it wears fine but I really don't like the effort I have to put into applying this lipstick for it to look good.
I also love the colour but you really have to work the lipstick in to get that colour. 
This lipstick colour is called Beguiled and it costs £8.
Seriously this lipstick put me off Topshop make up for good. Maybe I got a weird lipstick but I don't want to try any more. 

What is your experience with Topshop make up? What do you swear by?

Luxury on your lips!


I told you about those Kiko posts. Here's another one! 
This is a limited addition Intently Lavish lipstick in Luscious Red. It is a very deep red with a little pink/purple undertone but very pretty and luxurious. It is super creamy and when it kind of dries out the colour stays very strong but it isn't sticky or glossy. 
I feel like this colour would look amazing on mature ladies as well as young people. I mean youngsters can pull anything of. 
The packaging - OMG. It is so luxurious and it feel so expensive. At first I was imagining Charlotte Tilbury's lipstick to feel this expensive but when I held her lipsticks it didn't feel as good as this one. Everything is in rose gold and it is kind of heavy. That is a good thing because heavy pens and heavy make up brushes give you more precision. 
I don't feel like it runs or that it dries so much your lips are gross. This lipstick make your lips worth a million, try it!
I absolutely love the detail on this lipstick and I just want to cherish it at the same time I wanna use it all and show the world what a great lipstick it is. It is a limited addition but, on Kiko website you can get this gorgeous beauty just for £3.80 and the shipping is free!!! What more do you want? 
If I haven't sold this beauty to you yet then I don't know what will. It is truly something!

Was I pushy enough? Do you feel like you need this lipstick? Please let me know.

Lipgloss to show off


A Glossybox lipgloss was from Essence. It is a Liquid Lipstick in colour  04 Show Off. It is such a barging at £2.50. The quality of this lipstick is great, it is quite moisturising and very pigmented and super glossy but it isn't sticky like most lipglosses are. 
I absolutely love this colour is very coraly pink but so wearable and the best bit is you can totally control the pigmentation. I absolutely love the wand too, it makes me feel safe. I don't know why but it just does, like I trust it. 
I 100% recommend this lipstick if you are looking for something summery and playful. 

Have you ever tried it? What do you think?

Plump Winter Lips


I will start by apologising for a dark picture but then I think it shows well how dark this lipstick is. 
I always loved L'oréal make-up but I don't know why I never look at their counters. They have a great make up selection from foundation, eyeshadows to nail polishes and lipsticks. 
But one day I was super down and I found this little beauty. I am always really appreciative of how good L'oréal packaging is especially their lipsticks. First of all it is gold, then it has that little thing on the lid which means you can only put the lid on one way only (it feels a little bit more secure), the smell of the lipstick is always sooooo good and feel luxurious and last but not least is that it says L'oréal on the actually lipstick like all the designer brands.
About the lipstick now, you can find it pretty much everywhere and it costs £6.99. When it is in the tub it looks like dark burgundy colour, however 462 Préliminare is purple when it is on the skin. 
I would say it has medium pigmentation it is not super pigmented but it is not sheen wither. I think this lipstick would be amazing with a little bit more pigment and if it was matte maybe like Bourjois 24 Hour Stay lipsticks. It has a glossy finish that I am not a big fan of but that doesn't put me of this lipstick. I love this colour because it is just the ultimate autumn/winter lipstick.
Although you could look a little vampy (which is good for Halloween or any themed party) but I just love it and I hope you will fall in love with it too.

Nude Attitude


The fourth product from Glossybox is this Revlon Lipstick. I am not a fan of nudes. I have nudes but I rarely use them. I love my bright lipsticks, I think they suit me well and I don't have any confidence issues wearing them. Also I feel like nudes look so much better on people with darker skin. They skin and brown eyes are enough colour whereas I am super pale with God knows what colour eyes.
This one is a matte finish and it is very pigmented so you will need to make sure your lips are smotth and scrubbed. It is very much like MAC Satin lipstick, very rich yet matte. 
The colour of this lipstick is 001 Nude Attitude  and to be honest on me it seems a little bit orange. In the tube the lipstick looks like it is foundation colour but it has orange undertone. I feel like this would be nice colour on darker skin rather than on pale as it makes me look ill. And, that is what nude lipsticks do to you if you don't get the right colour.
The price of this lipstick is £7.99 and you can find it at superdrugs, you might find luck in other shops and you most definitely find it online. 
Revlon has a big range of colours and I am sure you will find you perfect match as for the actual quality for the lipstick I really like it! It is a great quality drug store lipstick for yourself and as a gift.

Merry Berry


My love for reds and berry lipstick is known and it is strong! I have tried many reds, luckily I have a good skin colour that suits many red tones. I prefer actual reds rather then orange reds or pink reds. This Clinique lipstick in Cherry pop is a red that has a cherry undertone. I found it a little weird at first because you do need to match your make up to this colour as it is quite strange. 
I like the consistency of this lipstick and the colour is quite pigmented. 
It is priced £16. Personally I think you can find cheaper lipsticks but if you want something luxury
 this could be great for you. This is also a great gift. It comes in many different colours so there is one for everyone.

Lipsticks

Red and dirty pink lips 


As you can see both these lipsticks are dearly love by me. They both are 12 hours stay from Bourjois although if I had to comment on how long they stayed I wouldn't say 12 hour. However, when you eat the middle area of your lips tends to disappear and outline remains which is very easy to just reapply after a meal. If you are on the date it might look a little bit silly so have that in mind (because we want only the best impressions on the dates). 
The horizontal lipstick, which is like a dirty dark pink colour, is in number 30. I really really like this one when I just want something on my lips but have no idea what to wear. It goes well with everything and it really works very well of your natural lip flesh colour. The colour is visible but not bright and out there. If you are not comfortable with bright lipsticks but you want some pop of colour on your lips I highly recommend this one. 
The vertical lipstick is a beautiful red in number 34. This is my favorite red out of all that I own. I always opt for this one as it really complements my skin colour. It is literally red, no yellows or pinks or oranges just plain red. It is not too light nor too dark it is just perfect. 
These lipsticks have like a velvety finish, they are more matte but not quite and are not glossy at all but they are very moisturizing. My lips are never dry and I just love these lipsticks.

Lipstick


Pink Lips


I always wanted to get a bright lipstick but not so bright like plump colours or red, something that is everyday wearable but quite subtle. Of course I went to MAC to find a nice colour. I must say I wasn't impressed as I only found a few ones that I really like. MAC does a good range of reds or nudes and those colours were not what I was after. I did find this little gem. It is a colour Likable  in a cremesheen finish. Cremesheen finish means that it is glossy rather than matte. 
The colour is very beautiful, pigmented and it even stains lips. The staining is good if you wanna maintain the colour through the day but you will struggle to take it off. A good make up remover will get the job done well so don't worry. 
At the moment these lipsticks are for £15.50. They are pricey but it is MAC and all the make up is costly from MAC. Is it worth the price? No I don't think it is, but I got it as a treat for myself. 
If you are looking for a very pretty dark pink to make your lips look all juicy and nice and you have extra cash to spend go for it. If you wanna treat yourself- go for it. It is a great colour and it will suit fair or tanned skin  and would really complement your skin and your eyes (whatever the colour they are).

Lipstick

Autumn Lips.


As autumn is 7 days in and is not backing down, so should lipsticks. This one is from Kiko (my fav store which should ban me...) it is in colour 12 and it's a velvety finish that stains your lips and does not move. That is a brilliant reason to get this lipstick and love it. Literally it is so hard to get it off and the colour is in between sheen and matte which is such a autumny thing. I opted for a red wine colour that kind of has a purply undertone so it is not fully red. I like it because it is such a sassy colour on me and it really does remind me of colder months. 
I got this on a deal but I think it's original price is around £6. It's a normal price for a lipstick that you will love using and just love like I do!

Lip Tint

Kissy Missy!



A lot of people who know Zoe was very exited about Zoes' addition to her bath collection and one of the new products she bought was a lip balm. Do I like it? Yes. Do I love it? no. 
There are a lot of things I like about it. I like the colour it very pigmented although I think it would not suit everyone. I like the smell which is not tutti frutti but it is a usual lip balm smell. I really like the texture, it is not like Vaseline which is glossy it is more velvety texture (matte but not fully) it is creamy but not too much so it doesn't look like you slapped some oil on your face. But my main downfall is that you have to use a finger and one you done applying the product on your lips you have a pink fingertip, what do you do with it? 
It costs £3 which is okay, not the cheapest but not the most expensive and you can find it in Superdrug (if you live in the UK) or online.  
But as for a first lip product (and if you know Zoella you know how much she lover her lipsticks) I say well done Zoe!

MAC Collection


So I thought I would upload my MAC collection. I do not own a lot of MAC products but the ones that I own are my mainly used ones, and I think I have pretty nice collection. All the beauty essentials! (What else do you need? ;) )

 

1. MAC Face and Body foundation in C1 - C shades are  with yellow undertone however the undertone does not make you orange it makes your skin look like you have a little tan (however, don't forget to blend into your neck and your ears). Face and body doesn't have great coverage but the coverage can be build-able. The foundation leaves a dewy finish but it photographs beautifully even with the thinnest layer of foundation. (There would be a colour for EVERY skin colour.)

2. MAC Soft and Gentle highlighter - probably is the best highlighter I've even came across! Seriously it is so nice, It has gold finish but also have a hint of colour which is like brownish/pinkish. It could be worn with the whole shebang as well as on it's own. OHHHHH but it looks sooooo pretty on darker skin. (There are more bronzy colours as well as colours for lighter skin.)

3. MAC Black Track eyeliner - One of the strongest eyeliners  I have ever tried. And trust me I tried soooo many. I have really oily eyelids but this one stayed the longest on my eyes. When it sets, it sets for good. It also sets as mat, which I think it's always flattering.  (They also have more colour - browns can be for eyebrows if you mastered the art of drawing hairs.)

4. MAC Satin finish lipstick in Pink Nouveau - it's a satin finish, which mean it is a mat lipstick but it is very moisturizing. The colour is strong and stays pretty well (unless you are eating then you need to touch up.)  It is not for everyone but I like a bright lipstick and it brings out the blueness of my eyes as it has cold undertones. (Again toooons of colours and finishes.)

That's the end of my little MAC collection, which is loved by me very much.

Yours Izabele

Make-up

My Kiko collection


Before I took all of my items out for the pictures I though I had a variety of Kiko products but it turned out that I only had eye shadows and lipsticks, and I think they are the best.





These eye shadows are super pigmented and can be used wet and dry. It stays quite well and it doesn't fall out that much when applying. However some of these eye shadows that I own are discontinued. For example:
white shimmery (168 discontinued) - really nice as highlighter and to wear on the inside of the eye. It has a lot glitter sparkles so it's great for dressy make up.
sparkly black (28 discontinued) - again great wet or dry. I use it as eyeliner if I don't want to use eyeliner. Sparkly bits are hard to see but I think they make your make up look prettier.
brown (120 discontinued but could be substituted by infinity eyeshadow 217 satin ebony) - mainly I use it for the eyebrows also because it is mat. It has ashy undertone, which works very well with brown. It creates a really nice natural colour for your eyebrows (works well with all type of hair colours).
satin wood brown (123) - also great wet or dry. This one is lighter than 120 and has shimmer in it. Great colour for crease work. It blends easily and it can be build into intense brown colour.
purple with a blue sparkles (159 discontinued) - this is an amazing colour. It works for purple and for blue as sparkles are blue (or at least it appears so). It is a great colour to have.

 

this is another pallet (addictive song 02) that has been discontinued. I think it was one of their street limited edition pallets. It has great autumn colours, which can be use wet or dry and they are really pigmented and stays on the eyes pretty well.
white gold (18) - sparkle based pigment. It's great for snazzing up your make up because the sparkles as very noticeable.

Let's move onto lipsticks. It's probably my favorite part of the make up.

 

coral (904 strawberry pink) - great every day colour. It is bright but not too bright. It is very moisturizing and has a glossy finish.
pink (911 watermelon) - this colour is very subtle and has some shimmer, it would be very nice with heavy eye make up to make those lips even prettier.
purple (914 amaranth) really dark colour. It does make you look a little bit older and without a lip liner you will not survive but it is really pretty autumn colour and it would work really well on a night out with some light eye make up.




pink (804 pearly watermelon) - these lipsticks are in between lip gloss and lipstick, they are pigmented but they do have a really glossy finish. Also they smell really good. It's a subtle colour and has some glitter particles - great for every day.
purple (811 raspberry ) - same as above, pigmented but super glossy, smells great. However it is much more of a darker colour but not too dark so for those who like brighter lipsticks - this one is for you.
dark pink ( 42 discontinued ) - it is a shame that they discontinued it because it is such an amazing lipstick. it smells like cherries and almonds and the colour is deep but really wearable AND it has a velvety finish - PERFECT AUTUMN LIPSTICK or winter.

Last but not least are the lip liners.

 

purple (  710 rouge noir ) - I use this one with my 914 lipstick as they mach perfectly and sometimes with 811. Also I use it under red lipstick and it gives me a nice dark red with a purple undertone, which looks nice. This pencil is mat and stays very well on the lips.
orange ( 605 orange ) - I use this with 804 as it brings out the coral colour of the lipstick. This pencil is a glossy pencil and it is not as pigmented as the 710 so this could be worn just on it's own. AND it smells like skittles!!

My Kiko collection isn't big but I wear a lot of these products daily. They are at a great price and the quality is just amazing. Also I think the packaging looks so chic. However I tried couple of their mascaras and I was not a fan of those. I liked the wands but I didn't like the actual product. And their pink exfoliating wipes are also really nice, if you like wipes that is (but they smelled really nice).
All in all I would 100% recommend this brand for everyone!

P.S. I also have nail polish collection if you wanna see that.
