FeelUnique HAUL

Image
Back to school soon! This year I'm going to high school and that means a lot of shopping. I finally made up my mind about what makeup I'm gonna be using and what look I'm going for. Feelunique.com had 15% off and all the products I needed. I really wanted NYX Lingerie Liquid Lipsticks. After weeks of waiting for them to be back in stock, I gave up. Maybe another time. This is the 7th time I've ordered from FeelUnique and usually my packages arrive in two-three weeks. I ordered 7 items and got 2 samples. Clinique Liquid Facial Soap Oily Skin Formula 200ml £16.50 I ran out of facial cleansers and I've always wanted to try Clinique products. Also this was cheaper at FeelUnique than in stores. I can't wait to see the results. Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector Oil-Free B.B. Cream in Light £9.99 I have started to hate foundations because of my oily skin. But this BB cream is really mattifying, so hopefully this will save me on long school days. Also

L'Oréal True Match Mineral Powder Foundation - Review

Image
A lot of people have been raving about this powder foundation and since I have oily skin, this seemed perfect. Also really good for traveling. Matches skin colour and texture with 95% minerals.  SPF 15.  No perfume, no preservatives, oil-free, non-comedogenic.   Medium coverage.  I'm terrible at choosing the right shade. So I followed the directions and I kinda see why people love it, I just don't.  The foundation was lightweight, but powder brings out facial hairs. I was surprised by the good coverage, because I've never used a powder foundation before. Surprisingly m y skin got shiny pretty fast. That's a problem for me, especially because this is mineral powder foundation, so I expected this to stay matte longer. Was it too drying for my skin? All I know is that my skin didn't like this foundation. The applicator brush is a bit too harsh on skin, but softer brushes don't blend well. Also the application took longer than it would with a liquid foundation.

Tilk! Cleanse Me Facial Cream - Review

It's already August! Summer, come back! With the heat and sun, I've been trying to keep my skincare routine super simple. Currently I'm mostly struggling with acne scars and super oily skin.  It has been difficult finding a good moisturiser for oily skin. Who wouldn't want the perfect moisturiser that gives you a moisturised shine free complexion for the whole day? Also on budget.  I remembered an Estonian brand Tilk! . They make natural, good quality facial and hand creams, they also ship internationally, check them out  tilk.bio . Tilk! has creams for all skin types and the oily skin one was really tempting. I found a few reviews about the creams and they were really positive. So while I was in Saaremaa (the place where Tilk! is from), I went to the store and bought the 50ml cream. I think it was about 22€. First of all the packaging is so cute and detailed. Just so pretty and colourful.  Their creams are made from bioactive ingredients. Cleanse Me cream

3 ingredient acne clearing DIY mask

So lately I've been obsessed with Huda Beauty . She has so many tips and is so beautiful.   She also has a lot of acne tips and one of them was this DIY mask. Of course I had to try it and I really liked it. Although the application was pretty difficult. You only need 3 ingredients. Measurements are not that important, pretty much go with how you like it.  But if you want to be more precise then here you go. 1 teaspoon of nutmeg 2-3 teaspoons of milk (regular) 1/2 teaspoon of honey Start with the nutmeg and spread it out in a bowl. Then add milk and slowly stir. It's not easy to mix nutmeg, because some of the nutmeg pieces will float and some of them will be in the bottom. Then add honey and stir. It is a liquid chunky paste. And that's why it is hard to apply. If you have a synthetic makeup brush, then you could use that, but make sure you wash it afterwards. I took the spoon, poured the paste onto my face and then scattered it on my face. It was not a pretty sight
