Hello everyone! Delayed blog anniversary GIVEAWAY is now ON~!

|REVIEW| The Body Shop Vitamin C Microdermabrasion

Hi again! Two reviews today! And I wanted to post about Face contour but I said to myself  "better not to because your readers are going to get tired of you today!". 

[Swap] The Cakepie from America

I'm so happy to post about my swap with Cakepie! Thank you very much!

Cakepie lives in United States and I live in United Kingdom so there are brands not available in the UK and vice versa. I told her that I want to try Wet n Wild products and she included these lovely eyeshadows, lip balm and eye pencil! I love the shades!

✿ January Beauty Favorites 2013

Hello guys~! I'm starting February with my January Favs. I'm a little bit late sorry about that! The past month I focused on skincare but I'm not going to talk much about skincare in this post because of my two huge skincare routines posts from the other day! Here and Here. These are the beauty products I've been loving this month:

Harajuku❤Lovers G (the original) by Gwen Stefani - It has been discontinued and I was lucky enough to find it on ebay. Luckily it's authentic and I love it. I ran out of it a few months ago and I recently repurchased it. One of my favorite perfumes ever. It has a hint of vanilla scent and sweets.

☆ My Evening Skincare Routine (Anti-blemish, Anti-wrinkle, Moisture)

Hi everyone! I'm back with my Evening skincare routine post! Click here to read about my Morning Skincare routine!

My skin is normal to dry with oily T-Line and dry patches around my noise and on my eyebrows.

☆ My Morning Skincare Routine (Anti-blackhead, anti-blemish, Moisture)

Hello Ladies~! Today I decided to write about my skincare routines! Click here for my Evening skincare Routine. Starting off with my morning routine now ^^

Before I start telling you the products I use, I want to state that my skin is normal to dry with oily T-Line and dry patches around my nose and sometimes on my eyebrows. Also I was in Greece for summer (very hot during the summer) and now I live in Ireland which is very cold during the winter. Meaning my skin turned from normal/combo to normal/combo with dry patches. Something I shouldn't forget to mention is blackheads on my T-line and sometimes I get break outs.

❥ The Body Shop Haul January 2013

Another Body Shop haul! The Body shop UK still has 40% and 70% sales on and I couldn't resist! Seeing that Vitamin C moisturizer is good for my skin and doesn't really makes my skin oily, I had to get the exfoliator and serum added to my skincare. Vitamin E gentle face wash is an old favorite. I remember my old  skincare routine. I used to use the Vitamin E wash after I exfolited my face. 

I fell in love with the Vanilla Bliss scent! In my previous hauls I bought the mist and body polish! This time I got the body butter and bath crystals ^^! And I ofcourse I didn't forget to restock on my favorite body butter: Chocomania.

So here is the list of the things I hauled:

• Vitamin C Skin Reviver
• Vitamin C Microdermabrasion
• Vitamin E Gentle Facial wash
• Vanilla Bliss Bath Crystals
• Vanilla Bliss Body Butter
• Chocomania Body Butter

Than you for visiting! Don't forget to request reviews (^__^)

|The Body Shop| Born Lippy Watermelon Review

Hi everyone! I've been using new skincare products and BB cream but I still need some more time before I review them so I decided to review this lip balm by Body Shop. I also have the rest of the flavors but I'm going to open the next only after I finish this one.

Born Lippy is a 15 ml inexpensive lip balm from Body shop. Costs only 2 British pounds in the United Kingdom.

Product description taken from the Body Shop website:

Our cult lip balm in a pot. Gives colour, flavour and moisture for more kissable lips.

• Moisturises and conditions lips
• Soft pink tint
• Shine Finish
• Fruity Watermelon flavour

Product description by me: It has oily and creamy texture. Soft consistency, not sticky on the lips, keeps my lips moisturised but not for very long ( need to be reapplied frequently ) and this specific one is very sheer. Gives a nice juicy look on the lips as well. The smell is a not so bold but not artificial either. I don't mind it at all which is good because I feel weird with fruity artificial scents. I prefer dessert scent on cosmetics. This scent is not bad though I 'm sure it would smell better to a person who specifically likes fruity scents.

Very soft and creamy consistency so you can easily scoop some with a lip brush. I wouldn't recommend fingers because they leave germs behind. I would imagine this would be a lot softer on warm weather.

Sheer pink tint and glossy finish on the lips. My favorite combination! But need to be reapplied to maintain gloss and moisture!

Here is the ingredient list. As we all know Body Shop never use parabens. 

To me this lip balm is average. Not so great but still good. I've tried better lip butters/balms in my life but I think this one has the simpliest ingredient list lol. I'm going to continue using it because it moisturises my lips but I probably wouldn't repurchase because I have other flavors of the same line.

I'll give this product ★★★★☆
