Weekly Make-up Tips


How do you clean make up tools
It is extremely important that you wash your gear, so you do not accumulate bacteria.
You better clean your brushes with regular hand soap or shampoo and maybe a little conditioner afterwards. Massage the shampoo and rinse  thoroughly with lukewarm water.
Wipe off the stems and Let it dry overnight,
This should be done twice a month if you use the tools every day.

Inflated and Unstretched


Phew!
Back from the gym after a pretty pass.
Only half an hour of pedaling machine
then some upper body training, completed with
a moment of great stretching.
So now I feel like a (nearly) new human.
 I do not know if the new is better
than the old one but one can always hope ...

The Bottom Lash Mascara!!



I had very high expectations for Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara, maybe a little too high, I realized in retrospect. It was not as i expected.

The Bottom Lash is it really easier to reach those little lashes that can not always be accessed otherwise but I still get the same amount of mess that needs to be removed afterwards, something I hoped to avoid with this mini brush. It is not a bad thing with mascara, but simply my lashes that I have to realize is complicated to apply to. It helps of course to wipe the brush before use.

The best Bottom Lash is probably still the mascara as it is much better than most non-waterproof, despite my sometimes very runny eyes, The bottom Lash has not scribbled off during the day . And yet it is not very difficult to wash off.

It is smart and pleasant to work with and here it is just a matter of need, you need a separate mascara . I can heartily recommend Bottom Lash. Since it has still not really helped with the problem I have with other maskar or I will probably not buy a new one but still sees the advantages and especially the water-resistant properties.

Winter Shoes!!

Now I have cleaned my shoes, Summer shoes are out and in with winter shoes.
Now I have put all my summer shoes in the closet and
they may be in the wind until further notice.
I gave some out so now I have left 78 pairs of shoes.
Dont ask if i am going to wear all 78 pairs of shoes as the answer is No.
Some of the shoes I have never used but they are so
fine to look at and admire. Cant blame me I love shoes!!.

Decleor: Radiance Mask

I know that one of the most desirable properties in terms of getting smoth skin is BRILLIANCE! Personally, I always read a lot of extra luster products ...It can be sooo awesome when you get a fine luster to the skin ... that you just want to ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaa ...

Now that I am still making a little face can I take this opportunity to tell all of you of two new products from Decléor giving just magical glow to the skin.

Flash Radiance Mask is a wonderful express mask that awakens the skin and gives it new energy after only 3 minutes. Ideal for those who want instant luster. The solution for late nights, poor sleep and jet lag. For extra cooling effect, the mask can be stored in the refrigerator. A cold shower can bring the body and Flash Radiance Mask awakens your face. You become so fiint rosy and energized.

This is a "Cinderella Mask" that gives luster and freshness with INSTANT effect! Increases microcirculation in the skin and gives a nice healthy look with a little common glorious appearance. If you feel tired and gray and ... well, kind of lifeless skin, this mask is just what you need!

Anyone can have it, but I recommend it especially to those who want luster, a kick to the skin or before a party just to get that sexy glowing look.

This is also a new product from Decléor. Vitamin C bomb so it is called to do. Vitamin c's luster queen No. 1.

10-day Energising Vitamin Cure is a 10-day intensive course with 100% pure Vitamin C powder that quickly gives skin new luster and energy. Improves skin elasticity. Gives the skin moisture, increases microcirculation, strengthens and protects the skin barrier.


Think of your skin type and what you want for power above all .... anti-aging, luster, moisture, deep cleansing, soothing. It usually result in two different options and it can be good to have two different masks at home for various needs. Eg one part of your skin may need a moisturizing mask + a deep cleansing. Either laps or so but these work with the different masks in different zones of the face.

Clearasil !!!

Now I have been using these two products in about 8 weeks, so now it's time for a little review on my part! Tthe products are:

Clearasil Wash & Mask: Skin care that can be used both as a gentle, cleansing facial wash and a thorough cleansing mask. Contains vitamin E, avocado and pomegranate which protects and moisturizes the skin.

Clearasil Face Scrub: Clearasil Face Scrub removes impurities in a gentle way and adds moisture to the skin. Clearasil Face Scrub is so gentle that you can actually use it every day. It contains vitamin E, avocado and pomegranate ..

My opinion about the products: I really had no expectations of these products to begin with because Clerasil not exactly had a good rating with me but i am glad i tried them because I actually think these two are really good budget products!

Wash & Mask cleans your face of dirt, impurities and makeup better than expected! It dries absolutely not out my complexion, is lasting and very pleasant to use! However, I have only tested it as a facial mask 2-3 times, I'm not as impressed with it as a facial mask, but then I have others that are much better for that purpose!

Face Scrub can be used daily, but I have not done, I've scrubbed face a few times a week and also experience this as very comfortable against the skin and it does not feel like it dries out my skin! The granules in this scrub is not very many and not very sharp either under me,

My skin has not gotten worse in the use of these products, which I actually feared a bit in the beginning because I had some preconceived ideas ;) Without it feels as nice and well maintained as always! :) That's why I think this is quite ok products, but I did not directly see any improvement in my skin but it has clearly been in the same condition as before! And I have absolutely ok skin so for me it's very positive :) the skin not did not feel dehydrated after I cleaned my face, that was what I feared most about these products that they would dehydrate but no. It did not do that to my skin.

I realized that their series does not contain toning and moisturizing products! During these eight weeks, I have skipped the toner and other facial masks but have used Wild Rose Smoothing Facial Oil Capsules from Weleda: To moisturize is after all a very important part of your skin and make your skin feel good, so personally I'd like to have seen Clerasil also have that kind of product in their range!

Rating: Clearly good budget products!
