Sky finds beauty

I am so tired of buying makeup/skincare products and then being disappointed. I've been trying to find a good BB cream/tinted moisturiser to get a shine-free, even complexion with sun protection. So I did my research, made a top 3 and went shopping. I know that in some stores you can ask for testers, but when you can't, then you should do what I did. I had 2 small empty containers and I discreetly pumped a little of the cream's testers into my containers. Because testers in stores are meant for testing, then why shouldn't I use them. Here are my first impressions of these two testers. Joik BB cream   light contains E-vitamin rich argan and wheat germ oils to moisturise and protect skin. It has a natural protection against UV rays. The BB cream evens out skin tone, hides small imperfections (sheer coverage) and leaves skin matte for 1-2 hours (I have really oily skin). But this also leaves a light layer of cream on my skin and doesn't completely sink in, which I d...

JOIK is a natural cosmetics brand from Estonia. Their products are vegan,100% natural, gluten free and not tested on animals. I have only bought candles from them, so I can't really comment on their products. But it's summer, it's hot and my skin could use some refreshing throughout the day. JOIK 's cute little rosewater spray was too good to pass by.  Price 4€ The rosewater has a great price, small bottle fits in a purse and it smells like roses and rose hip. This is for face and body. You can use this basically any time you want. I've used the rosewater also to set my makeup. This spray leaves a glowing finish, which I just love. I definitely recommend JOIK Rosewater spray. I think a refreshing face spray/mist is perfect for summer. Stay cool!

I'm a big fan of movies and TV shows. They are a great escape from reality and really entertaining. Since it's been pretty rainy lately, I started watching TV shows again. Here are some of my favourites: Supernatural just finished its 11th season and will be back for the 12th one, so there would be a lot of catching up. I really like it, it's a bit different and a lot of monster hunting tips. If you aren't interested in all 11 seasons, I'd suggest watching just season 1. It's a great introduction to the show. Or from season 1 - season 4. Season 11 was  really really good and we got to see God. Teen Wolf  has got it all. Watch high school students deal with werewolves and other supernatural beings. This began with humour and Scott figuring out this whole werewolf thing, but season 5 was pretty depressing and dramatic.  How I Met Your Mother  is more for those who want comedy and a bit less drama. But let's be honest, drama is everywhere. So watch 9 seas...

Summer is my favourite season. Not because there's no school, it's because the nature is blooming, sun is out, there is lightning and it's warm outside. To celebrate that and be healthier, me and my bestie stayed in Otepää for 4 days.  It's a small town that doesn't really have many activities or sights, but there's a lot of sports. So most of the time we were walking and every day we got over 20 000 steps. It was just the perfect place to get out of the city and enjoy nature. We climbed in the adventure park, fooled around on the swings, ate cake and ice cream, visited cemeteries, went rowing on the lake. So with those 4 days we travelled through Otepää and did almost everything there.  There was an energy pillar and a stone labyrinth, where you could gain energy. The instructions we found next to the energy pillar can be done anywhere with oak trees.  After following the instructions we actually felt refreshed, energized, it was like a cleanse. We we...

June has been full of so many interesting things, makeup free and full makeup days. So I thought it would be a good idea to share products that have been with me on my graduation and on those do nothing days.  My all-time favourite mascara is Maybelline Lash Sensational . This brave soldier keeps my lashes long, curled and voluminous.  TheBalm Mary-Lou Manizer is the reason I am obsessed with highlighting. The sheen, the glow and the sparkles this highlighter gives, aaah I just love it. Overall this product is just perfection for me. It's summer, it's hot, I'm not. With the heat my skin has been extra oily, so Beauty Made Easy Oil Blotting Sheets became my best friend. These absorb oil instantly, leaving me with matte skin for few hours. Plus these look cute. Australian Gold Lip Balm with SPF 30 keeps my lips moisturised and soft. It's a bit pricey for lip balm, but you only need a little, so it lasts long. Also it's so small that you can tak...

Summer is here, yayy! But we still need to care of our skin and protect it from the sun. Some people might have really sensitive or sun intolerant skin and for them I think La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL Comfort Cream is the best.  It has thick formula. Best for normal to dry skin. A very light scent. Suitable for very sensitive and   sun intolerant skin.   This is very hydrating, so you can use this as a daily moisturiser. Water resistant.  Easy to apply, moisturising, ultra-comfortable and non-greasy texture. Very comfortable to use with the pump.  Price 19€ My skin is very sensitive right now and this doesn't irritate at all. I think this does a great job at protecting my skin from the sun. I definitely recommend this.

TheBalm Mary-Lou Manizer AKA "The Luminizer" is a highlighter, shimmer and eyeshadow in one. The retro cute packaging and a mirror in the compact makes it even better. Just how they put so much effort in the details.  Price 21,99€ The Luminizer is a champagne shade high pigmented and buttery powder, mostly used as a highlighter. It glides on smoothly, has just the right amount of sparkle, no chunks. Just be careful, it's easy to over do the highlight, because of the pigment. This product leaves a healthy and glowy finish. Apply the product lightly on your cheekbones, brow bone, inside corner of the eye, bridge of the nose and very lightly on your chin and forehead. To be precise, apply this to the spots where the natural light hits. This product may be pricy, but I think it's definitely worth it. The quality is amazing and the shimmer is just so right. The honey-hued luminizer makes your skin look softer and gives you a glowy healthy look. This...

My unhealthy obsession with matte lip colors and my friend  Kelly raving about NYX   Lip Cream ,  I was just really hoping that maybe one day one of these will be mine. Later I found out that NYX was opening their first store in Estonia at a beauty fair. I had no idea that there we had to stand in line, because there wasn't enough space for shoppers.   NYX's Matte Lip Creams have been really popular due to their great formula, big range of shades and good price. Before shopping I had chosen the shades I wanted. Unfortunately there weren't any of them, so I grabbed three shades that looked like something I'd wear. I have been looking for the perfect nude matte lip color, but I guess that is not meant to be.  Price 7,26€ The lip cream gives lips a bright and long-lasting, lightweight finish. It may be a bit drying. After drinking and eating the color still stays on. It is pretty transfer proof when dry. The wand could be better, but I haven't had any pr...

Effaclar DUO[+]  is a anti-blemish cream, specifically formulated to target the key signs of oily, blemish-prone skin.  La Roche-Posay is a French pharmacy brand and known for their sensitive and effective products. This product has won beauty awards and has many people saying that this is the best anti-acne product ever. Well... Price 19,99€ This is similar to Avéne Cleanance Expert. After applying, this left my skin velvety. My skin didn't get oily so fast, which is a plus. I applied this in the morning and evening after cleansing. At first I saw some results, but slowly. Then after a while just no, my skin was horrible. I had high expectations for this product, but it feels like nothing can fight against acne.  And here is my experience. After 1 week- At the beginning my skin was getting worse and I was really worried. But by the end of the week my skin is looking better. Less redness, fewer breakouts, scars fading faster and skin is smoother. 2 weeks- A...

In need for a cheaper drugstore full coverage foundation? Try Rimmel Lasting Finish 25hr Foundation With Comfort Serum. With SPF 20. They say that this blends flawlessly, seamlessly, instantly and easily into the skin. And that this is sweat, humidity and transfer proof up to 25 hours. Well not exactly. Price 7,99-9,99€ This foundation blended nicely into the skin, but left a sticky finish (even with powder). Full coverage wasn't thick and was lightweight. The coverage is buildable, but then it gets really sticky and thick. It definitely transfers onto clothes (my dark blue coat proves that). Finish was natural.  After 5-6 hours my skin was shining like a diamond and the foundation felt uncomfortable. This stayed on with sweat and humidity, only coverage was slightly lighter and cake-y. After 10 hours coverage was a lot lighter and didn't look attractive. I wore this with and without a primer. With primer the foundation stayed matte longer, but without primer th...

With a chocolate mixed sunscreen scent and a chocolate bar appearance. What could be better than Bourjois Bronzing Powder with glints of sunshine + Highlighter ? This lovely duo gives you a light sparkly sun-kissed glow. Best for those who are beginners at makeup. This bronzer has a light, but natural finish. The highlighter leaves a glowy, sparkly sheen. Both of these are really light, so you might want to apply more. Yet it leaves skin looking naturally sun-kissed. I bought the only shade available in store 55. I like this duo, but I think there are better bronzers and highlighters out there.
