Yes and No of Product Ingredients

Today I picked a little serious topic to write about. I am in no way an expert of this topic, I’ve just read a few articles (which I am gonna list here) and tried to understand what ingredients I should avoid in my beauty products. I know this is not everything we should be aware of, so if you know more about it, please let us all know in comments below. I appreciate any new information about undesired ingredients because I want to try and avoid them in the future. 

Here is what I've found out yet:

Parabens

They are used to prevent bacteria, mold and yeast growth in products. But they increase risk of breast cancer. You can find them mostly in makeup products in general, body washes, deodorants, shampoos and facial cleansers.

Dreamy destinations I.

Travelling is one of my favourite things to do! Who would not love it, right? That feeling of being in a foreign country and exploring its secrets and beauty - priceless! It fulfills your soul with a feeling of joy and desire to start running at once in all directions to make sure you see everything. You want to see every place and take picture of everything. 

Today I want to show you what destinations I would love to visit one day. So let's just hope it will happen! :)

Tuscany

Who would love to live here? Such a peaceful place, perfect for relaxing and gaining new strength for life.

My picks for spring & summer: Lipglosses

There is one thing I hate about wearing lipglosses. It is very windy where I live so you can imagine how all my hair stick to my lips! Aaaargh… But in spring and summer it is the perfect time to wear them since the wind behaves much better. I do not stick with one colour range. I like to change them and have variety of colours available. I pick colour by my mood or occasion I am going to wear it to. 

So here they are.. My spring & summer players!

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Kiss Me Coral (here) has a very nice corally red colour with tiny little cold tone shimmers. It is a perfect option for me because I do not wear true red a lot. On the lips it doesn’t look too intense, it is not very opaque. I think for summer it is better to have that light colour on your lips, it looks more natural.

One brand review: Bourjois

Bourjois is a brand somewhere between drugstore and luxurious brand like Chanel, Dior, YSL. I feel that with Bourjois I get much better quality than with drugstore products and price is still affordable. Another plus is that Bourjois is available in Europe and I can get my hands on it! I would compare it to Physicians Formula which is not available here. You can buy it in drugstore but it is a bit more expensive. But I must say that after trying few of their products in US, I still prefer Bourjois. So no sad feelings about its unavailability here. 

Today I am introducing the best products from Bourjois I have tried yet and LOVE! I have already written about foundation and concealer, so in case you want deeper review check them out.

Coming soon..

I know I was quiet for a while. I was very busy with studying for my finals, but I passed and finally finished my University! Woohoo..
Today, I prepared this special post for you so you know what to expect in near future on my blog. By near future I mean next week or two. Of course, it is a teaser so all photos are blurred!

.. Spring/summer lipglosses

I will introduce you to my favourite lipglosses for spring or summer. I do not stick with one colour range so it will be colourful post.

Makeup Storage tips

We all need help with storing and organizing our makeup products, right? Who doesn’t. So there is never enough makeup storage posts or videos. I store all my makeup products in my small Alex drawer from Ikea. I have it for almost 5 years and still like it. Some of my small products like concealers or lipglosses are stored in random acrylic drawer on my desk. I bought it from Amazon for about $12. Today, I offer you my way of makeup storage and organization :)

I guess I start with my lipsticks. As you can see at the picture I bought a lipstick holder. Actually, I bought two of them, why not. After filling it with my lipsticks I found out there is not enough compartments. So I was forced to find better solution. What is better than empty candle jar? It fits all of my lipsticks. They stand there perfectly and I can see all shades better than having them in a drawer. 

One brand review: La Roche-Posay

Since my skincare posts have the most pageviews I decided to bring you another one. I have tried a lot of skincare products, of course not as many as longtime bloggers, but enough for regular person, I guess. For a couple of years, I have been loyal to La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo and since I like it so much I’ve started to try more of their products. And no regrets, they are all helping me and I have no complaints. For its review click here or buy here and I will add information about other products in this post.
