e.l.f Candy Shop - Cherry Bomb Lip Gloss

First of all, when I think to e.l.f products the first thing that came in to my mind are the ingredients...sorry I cannot divided the using of those products with the fact that because they are prduced in China they might have bad ingredients.
Second the first times that I smell this product I was almost sick. In addition I cannot stand pot like this that for using I had to dip my finger in it...igenical reasons but also the fact that my finger was dirty after applying it...


 Beside all of these problems I decided to use it because I had already heard good things on it and also because I want to leave my collection much more organised and clean...ready to daily use. Like I'm saying I decided to use it and I had to say that is really nice!!! The colour on the lips is nice, is a little bit sticky which make it last just more that a usual lip balm or lip gloss, and the rosy finish on the lips is really nice...unfortunately nothing can change my mind about the fact it is made in china but I just want to finish until I can be able to do it. Also the dirty finger of product after using it I cannot stand but unlike other product like these (Mac Lip Balm) is much more easy to clean just with a handkerchief

LOVEA - Shampooing Brillance Argan Oil

I'm sure you know the properties of the Argan oil. It seams to be very good also for hair. 

So when I founded this shampoo from Lovea I was so excited to have it in a nice form, at very cheap price plus in a bio form product. 

Result: unfortunately like every single "natural" or "bio" product that I had tried especially for hair, I can't say that they are good for my type of hair. This shampoo makes my hair so dry and when I watched them they are so stiff....I was expecting definitely more from it! Definitely brillance but I can't see so...sorry!

CATRICE Nail Polish - ASHley

Catrice has very great nail polish at cheaper price than other good brands.

The color is a grey with some notes of plum but not too much, is definitely a grey. 
In the photo only 1 COAT!!! 
Which I think is incredible good for a nail polish. 

The photo was shoot after one day of wearing it without top coat, so obviously you can see some gap in the polish but it is still a great cheap nail polish. I really recommend it. The brush is the type small so I'm not a huge fan of the brush but it is still nice to use it.

CATRICE Nail Polish in IRON MERMAIDEN 490




I always said that I have too many nail polishes and that I didn't want to buy more but I'm not very good at that especially if they are so cheap like the Catrice one.
This is one of my 5 last purchase.


Initially I didn't take care of it, but as long as after make some choose I always like more the things that I haven't pick up, I decided to change my usual buys and take this very original shade for me. Is triple chrome, very unique...I never seen or own something like this. At first it seam a green yellow in the bottle but as soon you move the bottle you can see the grey and the light lilac which is the most evident colour once applied on the nails. It's really lovely but if you move the nails you can pick up at least 2 other shades...like I said is very original. At first when I bought I immediately thought at a scarab but it's not...the yellow is barely noticeable.


One thing of this shade is that didn't last too long especially if you don't apply a good base or a good top coat. It's a little bit stricky but not too much. In the photos two coats.

BOURJOIS - 1 Second Nail Polish in #

When I purchased this nail polish, I didn't expect so much. It was a drugstore product, I haven't heard anything about it so my expectations were very low.

First of all I LOVE the brush: if every mine nail polish has this brush I will for sure apply them much more easy and more often. As the bottle claim it is panoramic so is perfect for my nails absolutely perfect. It makes the application so easy for my nail's shape.

It dries very quickly 1 second for nail (5 second each hand!) well maybe this claim is not very realistic but I can say that the nail polish dries much more quickly than others.

Unfortunately is not my favourite shade of pink. Is nice yes, but I don't like the shimmers too much I prefer matt but it is still very nice. I wish this line has more nice shades so I can bought only this brand!!
(2 coats in the photos)

REVIEW - Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser

I love this product! It claims to remove the makeup and dirt in a gentle way and this is exaclty what it does! Plus is smell divine so it's a very treatment also wash the face with it! I adore the eucalyptus smell! It came with two muslin cloth + a nice green pouch + obviously a bottle with a pump of 100ml of product, a very great product.
It didn't dry my skin at all; I never felt the skin like this after washing with a whatever cleanse and believe me I tried a lot! When I use it I never feel unconfortable my face with. It doesn't strip my skin at all and doesn't cause me any problem with breakouts.

The company is amazing, always ready and nice to answear to your question.

The product comes like a foam with the very nice pump which permit to control the amount of product used. The price is very competitive, infact for all this package is only 13 euro, but if you want there is the bigger size. 
It also removes my waterproof makeup in the first step you should gently apply the product on to the lashes and and your eyes, because, YES! this can be also use on your eyes without causing any problems!!! And makes me save so much money and time to remove my foundation and make-up on my eyes. But it can be also used like a cleanser in the morning, and if you want you can use the muslin provide to do yourself a gentle scrub.
I will for sure buy this cleanser because for right now is the BEST that I can find on the market! I use it for a while now like 10 days and I can't wait to see more good result from it but so far I'm very very happy to see the results because unlike the other cleanser, it didn't leave any residual of make up on my skin. Is a two step cleanser and you can see in the photos them, very few things to do for having such a great result that before I can't believe it! 
Thank you so much Liz Earle team for let me try this product I LOVE IT!!

REVIEW - Trind



...after tried quite a few products that claims to help my split nails to recover their situation.


There are almost 2 years now that I struggle with this problem and tried to help with nails product but I notice that anything really work, if so only for one month and the they stopped to work and ruined my nails more then when I started to use them. Products that I tried:


- Sally Hansen absolutely no relevant results; money thrown in a fountain maybe could give me more results!


- Trind bought from Sephora (contain FORMALDEIDE) I read some reviews on alfemminile before buying it so I know that it contains formaldeide, but I also read that it gives beautiful strong nails so the scare of formaldeide wasn't enough for me and I decided to try it...after the first 2 weeks of costant application it seams gave great result for a decent amount of time but after 2 months my nails seams to be worst then first ...so never recommend or repurchase...Maybe it needs to be used in conjunction with other Trind product but honestly the prices let me stay away from the all line....
Click on the instruction to know how to use it:


- the last is I was very impressed from this but also after the first great result in a very quick time, my nails started to split again and again, even worst!! In addition my nails were sharpener that it was more frequent to hurt me if I touch my skin !! O.O I don't know why so don't ask me!! But If I had to try again this is the only product that I will repurchase...even if is expensive also i would love to try the formula 1-2-3 because like this maybe it will work....
