BEAUTY, VIEW IT ALL, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

I gave some of them a try but I also have two new ones to try. there is a new NIVEA BB cream 5 in 1 and a new CC pore perfectioner cream by OLAZ! I can absolutely compare these buggers witht the creams from ESTÉE LAUDER, CLARINS and MARIONNAUD. give me some time and you will sure find out more about it in the future as I need to try them first.

at MANOR Basel the BB Cream is already on SALE – I saw that last week and I hope that deal is still up. 9.05 CHF instead of 12.95 CHF 🙂

now let me answer some questions:

#whats my favorite meal? what kind of food do you eat?
I love lunch and dinner and I am not really a breakfast person and I love to experiment different styles of cooking. I love indian food and of course italian food. I dont eat meat because I dont like it (I never ate meat as I already disliked it – meaning was spitting it out – when I was a baby) and I am also not that big of a cheese fan – hahaha, I know a swiss that doesnt like cheese, does such thing really exist? well, doh!

#whats my favorite lipstick at the moment?
aaw, thats a tough one but I have to say it would be M.A.C GOOD KISSER because it brings me in a spring mood!

#what book are you reading?
THE ART OF THINKING CLEARLY by ROLF DOBELLI is next to my bed and is waiting to be continued – but in fact I will try to find some time to read tonight!

#how long does it take you to get ready?
well, when I am in a hurry I can be done in five to ten minutes and when I have enough time it can take me fifteen to twenty minutes. I made my first get ready with me video today click >> here to watch it – it took me eighteen minutes and I was also rambling about stuff 🙂

something new by DOVE

BEAUTY, VIEW IT ALL, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

so in october 2014 I have told you about the new DOVE hair lines and didnt really describe the products and now I wanna share with you my experiences after using it for a couple of times AND I didnt do this alone – I had help! my gorgeous mom tested the purple YOUTH VITALITY line. first I wanna share with you what DOVE says about the two lines and then I will tell you what we liked about it.

OXYGEN

“Dove Oxygen & Moisture with Oxyfusion technology has been specifically selected to add hair volume for fine, flat hair. Oxygen & Moisture shampoo, conditioner and finishing products are pumped with Oxyfusion technology, a new generation of moisture. this system moisturises fine, flat hair, giving you hair volume. breathe life back into your hair with Dove Oxygen & Moisture.”
me: I really liked the OXYGEN line – the shampoo lathers and thats something very important for me 🙂 I hate it when shampoos dont lather. I always use conditioner after washing my hair and I gotta say that I liked the conditioner even better than the shampoo. another very nice thing is the mask which really made a difference to my hair – it made it shinier and healthier looking. the only thing I didnt like was the styling product. I think I will hand this down to a friend that likes to use these kind of styling sprays.

YOUTHFUL

“with age, hair loses essential nutrients and can leave you with dry, brittle hair that is longing for nourishment. at Dove we are dedicated to providing advanced and tailored care for specific hair needs and new Youthful Vitality is a dedicated range of hair care products that helps replenish the nutrients that hair loses with age. Dove Youthful Vitality shampoo, conditioner and finishing products contain nourishing ingredients that give deep replenishment. Your hair will be left more manageable**, revitalised and feeling stronger**. ( *shampoo, conditioner and thickening essence versus flat, limp hair)”mom: she is a huge fan of the Kiehls shampoos and therefore it was hard to make her stop using the Kiehls for a moment but she did 🙂 and she admits that she also liked the YOUTHFUL collection. she has grey hair and wears a rather short bob hair cut. I asked her if she has a favorite and she told me that she absolutely loves the HAIR BB CREAM.

this is the one product she will for sure continue to re-purchase.
so that is what we have to say about the new DOVE collections and we hope it was helpful incase you were thinking about buying the new products. have a lovely day. x

something nice

these two lovely things found their way to me and I have been using them the last couple of weeks. ooh dear, I like them both!

VICHY Capital Soleil BB Creme SPF 50

It has a lovely texture and a rather light coverage. I love BB Creams and I love high SPF protection and here I have found the perfect combo. A BB Cream with SPF 50!

KIEHL’S Micro Blur Skin Perfector

Apply this and you are ready to go, this product immediately blurs all my imperfections into oblivion! I have to say I am very much impressed! I use it after my Creme and Foundation and wow I can really see a before/after effect. I hope to be able to catch this on camera and show you.

Hmm, I must say I really love the Clarins BB Skin Perfekting Cream!
I have been using it for the last couple days and I really start to like it better everyday!

For me its really one easy step for natural-looking flawless coverage. The Clarins Skin Perfecting BB Cream is super easy to apply I achieved the best result with my fingers but maybe I just havent found the right brush for this cream. So anyway the texture is really smooth and leaves a very nice soft film on your skin. The BB Skin Perfecting Cream by Clarins is a real time-saver in the morning because it not only evens out your skintone it also protects your skin with the carefully selected plant-based ingredients with SPF 25.

so, what does BB stand for?

BB stands for “blemish and balm” and was first developed by German dermatlogists for women who had undergone cosmetic surgery and it was later further developed in Korea. It was recommended to soothe the skin and reduce the appereance of redness as a result of cosmetic surgery. It quickly became “THE” beauty secret behind flawless-looking skin in Asia. BB Cream is now found in a “western” version, part make-up and part skin care.

Have you tried a BB Cream before, please let me know which one and why you like it. please leave a comment or ASK or say something on my FB page – cant wait to hear what you have to say about BB Creams! xxx

BB or not BB?

BEAUTY, VIEW IT ALL, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

thats the question!

I am using the CLARINS BB CREAM since yesterday and really like it so far. the smell of the cream is soooo good that I could almost eat it 😉 texture is really super soft and the coverage of the BB CREAM is okay.

I will do a special about BB CREAMS soon and will keep you updated about the CLARINS BB CREAM. But first I want to use it for some days. stay tuned! xx
