[Giveaway] Products I regret Buying! [100th Post Hurray!]

Hi ladies and gents! After posting about the products I regret buying, I thought why not throw a giveaway?

Products I regret Buying!

Greetings my dear readers! Also welcome to the new readers ^^

I decided to make this post about the products I regret buying for either not working well for me or other reasons. Please keep in mind these products might have not worked for me but they might work for you!

• Visibly Clear Pink Grapefruit Scrub from Neutrogena: It makes my skin dry.
• Moisture Match for Combo oily skin from Garnier: Leaves my skin soft but my T-Line becomes oily after an hour or so.
• Porefessional primer from Benefit: Covers pores well but makes my skin dry unless my skin gets super oily which doesn't happen all the time.
• Vitamin Pore Cleanser from Elisha Coy: It just doesn't work! It seems fake.
• Protective Fluid Foundation S from Paul & Joe: Good foundation but it's too orange, drying my skin and not enough coverage for me. Suitable for super oily skin!
• Aqua Petit Jelly BB in shade 2 from Holika Holika: I got the wrong shade! Too dark for me!
• Banana Yogurt Mask wash off from Skinfood: It does what it says but the smell is so strong artificial banana and I hate it..

Any products you regret buying?

|Paul & Joe| Protective Fluid Foundation S Review

Photo source beautybay.com

Greetings everyone! I finally got to take photos for this review! The weather hasn't been so good lately, it was mostly cloudy until today. The sun finally came out but I was able to take some decent photos for this review. Like I stated on my previous review post I wanted to write about foundations and BB creams this month. We didn't see that happening though (lol) so I'm going to extend this "review plan" to 2013 hehe.

I thought I used this foundation before but I was wrong =_= I used to have Light Cream Foundation N but I forgot the exact name so I thought Protective Fluid Foundation S is the improvement. It's been almost two years since I used light cream foundation N and my memory is generally not the best! Turns out this foundation isn't bad and it has SPF 25! 

❥Mini Haul December 2012 #2

Hey Ladies! So today two more items from my grandparents' present arrived! ^^ I'm so happy to finally have the Paul & Joe foundation again! One of my old favorites and they upgraded the bottle too! The name is Protective Fluid foundation S and it's long lasting with matte finish. The coverage is medium but I'm not sure if they upgraded it since I last tried it, I think it was like a year and a half since I used the old bottle I had.

Paul & Joe is a Japanese designer brand that reached United Kingdom! I'm so happy about that ^^ I love their blushes and foundations. I used to have eyeshadows, lipgloss, makeup remover, nail polish base and I don't remember what else. Eyeshadows and blush all have silky cream texture which I really like. I still use the blush through years but the eyeshadows and the rest went bad after a year of using them ^^; So I'm happy that I have this foundation again!

The second item I ordered is a mini size flat kabuki brush by Too Faced! It's really small but the bristles feel soft and high quality! I can't wait to use it!

Let me know if you'd like to see reviews about these items and your thoughts

Thank you for reading

October Beauty Favorites 2012

Another month came to an end! Another time that I couldn't make a video about my Monthly favorites, so here I am blogging about it! After a lot of thinking I decided to include the most used products of this October.

The list includes:

• Precious Mineral Bright Fit BB cream by Etude House
• Persephone Body Milk by Fresh Line
• Dear My Milky Gloss MBE102 by Etude House
• Jewel-Light Waterproof eyeliner 01 by Holika Holika
• Line Nuance Duo 5 by Etude House
• Skin mal:gem Fresh Toner by Etude House
• Face Color 16 by Paul & Joe

1. Jewel-light 01 2. Line nuance Duo #5 3. MBE102 Milky Gloss 4. Face color 16

Precious Mineral Bright Fit BB cream by Etude House: Not too matte but not too glossy finish. It's something in the middle and I love that very very much. Medium to high coverage (very good for BB cream) and it doesn't have a sticky feeling that some say about BB creams. I decided to include this because I'm almost out and I'm not gonna take it with me to the new house because I  have so many things to move from Greece to the UK after all. I'll probably repurchase it but I'm thinking of trying the Sun BB cream by Etude House.

Persephone Body Milk by Fresh Line: I was looking for a pure body milk because Autumn made my skin dry. I'm happy that I discovered this body milk because it does its job very well. It's pink includes Ylang-Ylang and Jasmine Aroma/Scent. I must say the scent is very strong and it reminds me of Paganistic rituals! But more something like Wicca. It's weird eh? Like a Wicca ritual for spring even though I never attended one lol. Nor I'm a wicca but I did a lot of research about them when I was a teenager.

Dear My Milky Gloss shade MBE102 by Etude House: I'm so in love with this lipgloss! It gives me a natural colour on the lips but also makes them look very creamy like Caramel Cream. I think this is the best nude lipgloss I've ever tried. It can be worn by itself because of the pigment. It leaves a sticky feeling at the beggining but it stops being sticky after a few minutes. No glitter, no shimmer just what I like on lipgloss! It has a soft scent, something between fruit and candy. I can't tell exactly! But I like it cause it's soft.

Skin mal:gem Fresh Toner by Etude House: My face got into a big shock of dryness after Autumn arrived! I had to use whatever moisturizer came across, good thing I  had a lot of samples because Be Clear Moisturizer and Super Aqua creams weren't enough. Most of my products are for oily/combo skin type. I have oily T-Line and the rest normal. But I needed high moisture all of the sudden. So I picked to use this toner two times per day instead of using the Pore ever freshner in the mornings because Skin mal:gem Fresh gives more moisture to the skin. Cleanses deeper and gives a fresh feeling. I really loved this, I almost finished it!

1. Jewel-light Waterproof Eyeliner 01 by Holika Holika  2. Line Nuance Duo #5 by Etude House

Jewel-light Waterproof Eyeliner 01 by Holika Holika: Your average creamy black eyeliner but it's waterproof. Easy to apply if nothing is worn as a base. I also made a video review about this on youtube.

Line Nuance Duo #5 by Etude House: I actually used the silver glittery side of this. It's a powder silvery eyeshadow on the other end of the pencil. I used it on the inner half of my bottom eyelash line. I wanted to give my eyes a K-pop look!

Face Color 16 by Paul & Joe: And last but not least, my all-time favorite blush. Shimmery and semi-creamy powder blush. It has pinkish peach blush on one side and shimmery soft bronzer on the other. You can use them separately but I like to mix them to get a natural peachy colour! I like the shimmer in blushers. High pigment but not like water colour blush... You know sometimes you get high pigmented blushes that leave stains on your face like you applied water colours.. This blush isn't like that but it maintains a high pigment at the same time.

Soo these are my favorites for October 2012 - I hope you like my post!
