REVIEW: Liquid Keratin (ANIAN)

Hello so taday's post how you can see is about a review of  a hair product.

The liquid keratin is able to make you happy if you have frizzy hair (which is the less comfortable hair texture to style)
So out there you can find a huge amount of products that will tame your frizzines. I actually found five of 'em. And this product is one of them, obviouslly is not perfect and if your hair is super frizzy like mine it won't tame is all (but the job it does is amazing , I have to say), this is  because this is not special for that type of texture, the point of the product is actually revives the damaged moisturizing it. 
I have to say that this actually works, how you can see I repurchased this and I don't use to do this with hair products unless it's so good and it does it's job like nothing else, because I like to change, experiment trying to find the perfect products to my hair.

So for your interest , in the back of the bottle it says: "ANIAN liquid keratin containts ingridients that are identical to these of the hair stucture itself, which greater intensity the more damaged hair."  I want to spot here and let you know that is absolutlly true. I'm not the only one who tried this and I know that the more damaged you hair is the more difference you will notice while using it.
"DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Towel dry the hair after washing and conditioning. Apply Anian liquid Keratin by spraing it over the hair, then gently massage it and spread with a comb."
So far is nothing that could spot you to buy it unless you have healthy hair,  if you keep reading maybe you won't buy it, but I can guarantee that it's is worth it, there we go : 
"IMPORTANT:  Gently dry with a hair drier, as heat is required to fix the active ingridients to the hair. Style as usual"




At the begining I was not using any heat , then I read the back and I realized that I wasn't using this properly and I sposed to use it with heat. I was disapointed because if your hair is frizzy you will know that use the drier is not the best option. And at that moment I was tryin to use as less heat as possible because my hair is damaged (it was so much worst before using it) But anyways I tried it and I have to recognise it's worth using that little amount of heat, so the actives of the keratin will work perfectlly and the best is that you don't have to dry it until is absolutlly dry, I use to dry it until it's 70 to 80 % dry and I'm lovin this product so far. So If you have damaged or frizzy hair I recomend just trying it, If it won't work or you don't like it you can use it as a detangler so you won't loose money 'cause this is not expensive. 

The new packaging respect the old one:
How you can see they improved the packaging , so nor you can trvel without problems with it   but I know this is not relevant but The women they put in the bottle is so creepy, is literally staring at you ! look: 



BEFORE AND AFTER: 




















Any ways I hope You like this if you have any questins or suggeriments leave a comment. I will talk to you In the next post! 
Goodbye! :)

Summer face care

I've been working on this for a while and I finally decided to upload it, this is about skin care.
Some of the products are specially picked out for summer (if your skin is normal to dry) but some of those can be useful in every season(spacially for oily skin). I never use them all in once there're just some recomendations.



Cleansers:

 Clinique liquid facial soap oily skin formula.
You're suposed to use it twice a day but I just use it once because my skin isn't oily at all.
If your skin is, this product is a must for you. Doesn't let your skin dry and it leaves the skin feeling fresh and clean. 200ml

Babaria cleanser for young skin. This deep clenses your skin and it also works amazing with redness and calming your skin. Is for all types (young sking) It leaves your skin clean and fresh. It has a clean smell. 150ml
This is the only tonic I choose because it make wonders for me, I use it in every season. Your blackheads desapears at the first or second day of using it (depend of the blackhead type) It's oil free wich is really important if your skin is oily and it leaves your skin felling re-freshed and clean.
It's my second bottle of it.
200ml







Scrubs:

Garnier pure 3 in 1; cleanser+scrub+facemask.It has the efficency of a dily wash, the sensation and deep clensing of a scrub and the mattifying effect of mask. This is a must for people with oily skin and regular skin can use it in summer. This make wonders to your skin. If you want to use it regulary use it once a week. I like to use it to give my face a deep cleanse. It has a clean scent and it leaves your skin clean,really fresh and it tightens your pores. The  mattifying effect  works really good for oily skin.  150ml

Clean and clear morning burst. This scent wakes you up. If you have dry sking use it on summer but if you don't use it better in winter. I'm almost run of it so it'll be in my empties soon and how you can apreciate becouse of the packaging is the old version


Moisturizers:

Clearasil (Daily Clear) : This product hydrates your skin but it leaves a matt effect and it also helps with the imperfections stuff which I think It's really nice. Your skin feels fresh and clean during a great amount of time. I think It's a total must for people with oily skin. (75ml)

Nivea Aqua sensation visage : Ok so this is cool. When I saw it on the drugstore I though that maybe it's a light formulation but I wouldn't feel like water. But the funny thing is that it really does feel like you're applying water on your skin. It's hydating and OMG I  do love it  much. I bought it just for trying but I really love it. I tryied the body version of it and it feels the same. I absolutlly adore it. (50ml)

MUSIC TAG


This TAG is about music.. OMG music is so important to me that's why I'm doing it !! Be free to do it too and send me your blog 'cause I love reading them as well.

PHOTO:


1.What does music mean to you?
   Music is a really important part of my life just becouse it can change my humor as fast as a song starts. Music supports me whenever I need it. I seriouslly couldn't imagine my life 
without music because music is also there when we talk. Sad, angry, happy, hopeless, 
loveless, heart broken, in love, when you miss someone, jealous... there's always a song 
that belongs you; in the way that you can feel identified to. 
But a quality of music is that can make you feel things you're not feeling in the moment. You can be happy listen to a song and start crying just 'cause you feel it, and believes it. And the most important think is that you can express yourself though music, and I consider myself 
really creative so for me expressing myself is important in every way.

2. Do you have an Ipod, Zune, MP3 etc. if so which one and what kind?

   I do, it's an ipod classic (gray 80GB) And I love it. Actually I knew I'll be without it a 
week and a half and I started crying. But then I realize I could use my iphone, I don't 
have too many songs there tho.

3. Can you play any instruments? If so what?

   Humm.. no I wish I could. I want to learn how to play the guitar, drums and obviouslly improve my singing ^^.

4. Do you have an all time favorite CD/Album?

  Wow this is a hard question... At the moment I would say : I can't be tamed by miley cyrus. Unbroken by Demi Lovato . The bends by radio head, pipe dreams by Mark salling.... I could say some more. I could never choose just one.

5. What's your favorite band/singer? If you don't have one, can you list the bands that you have the most CDS/Songs of?

   I'll go ahead and say some and try to say the most important ones  (i know I'll miss really important ones but..)
How you can tell by the previous question:
Miley Cyrus
Demi Lovato
Mark Salling
Radiohead
Mark Knofler
Ariana Grande
Simple Plan
Bruno Mars
Max Schneider
Usher
Hey Monday
Phil collins
Michael Jackson
Rock mafia(I don't know if this counts)
Lil Wayne 
Emily Osment
And I'll stop here because if don't I'll end up saying all the music I love. 


6. Favorite song?

   I could neve choose one. But right now I have "we are never ever getting back together" stucked in my head. But the Joey graceffa and luke conrad version ;)
7. Do you have "a song" with either a guy, a friend, etc. where it means something to you?
  Yes!! I think I have quite a lot of them but the one that I can think about right now is :
I'm only me when I'm with you by Taylor swift (best f)

8. Have you ever written a song? If so, was it for anyone? What was it about?
Yes, I did! It's about waiting so long for a guy and then I realize that I'm over him and that he doesn't deserves me anymore. So the beginning it's a little sad but the end makes you realize that if something is not making any good it's because of something and you should leave this emotional state. I know it's not easy but I learnt my lesson.

9.If you could sing with any artist, who would it be and why?
I would love to sing with Mark Salling 'cause he has a really deep voice and my voice is also deep so it would sound cool. I have to admit that some boys voice is higher than mine and it sound cooler when the male's voice is deeper. And it would be so fun if I could sing with Simple Plan too or with Maroon 5 ... omg.
And If I could work with any female i would like to sing with Miley cyrus maybe 'cause she is amazing and her voice is also deep.

10.Could you live a day,week or month without music? Why?
I actually did, I lived a whole day without music and I honestly felt incomplete. But if I can't listen to any music during a long time I would sing it myself.

SUMMER Eye-makeup


Hello beauties! So today's post is about  eye-makeup I use at summer (obviously not all the products at the same time) A fact is that I love makeup and doing other's people's makeup but I don't like that much wearing it, I use to wear natural looks if I'm wearing makeup, and I like wearing more makeup when I'm going to be on videos, photos or important/special events.
Anyway this are some of my recommendations for summer because I know that all you love makeup ;)



This product is by essence and is a cream long lasting eyeshadow "stay all day" in the colour 01 Copy Right.
Those eyeshadows are really cheap, they don't have a good range of colours, are quite dark this is the most natural one that's why I bought it. The colour is fine but I'm not agree at all with the long lasting thing but whatever they are really cheap for be expecting amazing things. The thing I hate about it is the texture, I mean if you apply a little bit in you eyes you're only going to be able to see sparkles and no colour, so if you try to put on more product you'll see the colour but I don't like the finish it gives you at all. And maybe it's because my skin because my best friend likes them. However I love natural looks so sometimes I'm happy with the sparkle effect.
This is one product which I have a love hate relationship with. 
Although I like it for summer for a party on the beach or having a walk at night. And Is really easy to apply no matter where you are.

This next product is a Catrice eyeshadow. It's orange which I love Is really pigmented and colorful and sometimes I use it as a blush which looks natural and it highlights you skin making it glow. On the eyes it looks stunning and I think it suites tan skin tones better that's why i recommend it for summer. I tried to swatch it but my camera didn't pick the colour how it really is, in the photo looks paler and with almost no pigmentation. (but in real life is way orange than in the photo, sorry)



This product is a MUST  for summer because the colour is really neutral is so pigmented and really easy to apply so is the perfect product for use it on the go you line your eyes and for the eyeshadow you just need to apply it on to your eyes and blend it with your fingers, really easy and fast, perfect for after the beach in the case you want to go to a restaurant or something and you want to look good. The liner is almost matt effect but the eyeshadow is sparkly and darker than the liner. And this swatch it shows quite good how it looks in real life. 


This is my NYX jumbo eye pencil in yogurt (611) The NYX jumbo eye pencil offers a creamy texture, good pigmentation, easy to apply and easy to blend, it melts with your skin when you are applying it, you can use it wherever you are is that easy that you don't need a mirror. And what is also good is that you can line your water line too because sometimes with this type of eye shadows (other brands) the colour doesn't shows up really well and normally less pigmented that if you use it on your skin. I love to use this product on the inner corners of my eyes I think it looks so beautiful and it open up you eyes, I get so many complements when I wear it. I just wear it with a little bit of mascara. It looks so glowy. And if you want to wear powder eyeshadow you can use it as a base colour.


Let's talk about eyeliners! This is one of my favourite eyeliners ever is the L'oréal paris infallible retractable eyeliner. Is waterproof and it last up to 16 hours. I wouldn't say it lasts 16 hours but I think it last so much time than other eyeliners and it's also really pigmented. That's why I think is really great for summer! 

Another eyeliner that is really good is the Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel eyeliner. This is in the colour Chocolate Shimmer Ink 13. It lasts a good amount of time you can do your eye makeup when you wake-up and at night it still i place, although is not waterproof. The consistency  is perfect and you can also use it as eyeshadow or base colour which I think is 3 in 1 product. It's incredibly pigmented, a little bit expensive but is Bobbi Brown and it's worth it, it really is. 


This is the essence get big lashes volume boost waterproof mascara. I really like it because with one coat you get really nice results voluminous and thick lashes in one coat. The bottle is huge like the brush and is a essence product so is really cheap. (12ml / 0.40 fl.oz)

This is the H&M eyebrow fix. It's not really good so i don't recommend this exact product but I think that an eyebrow fix, whichever brand do you want to use, is a must for summer. (sometimes I just wear it with blush and my NYX jumbo eye pencil) 


I hope you enjoyed reading it If you have any questions or any suggestions leave a comment down below.

SUNCARE :)



Hello everyone! So today’s post is going to be a review about the most important summer product : sun care. Our skin needs to be sun protected because If we protect our skin from the sun we aren’t just protecting it against the sun burn, we are also preventing spots, hyper pigmentation and wrinkles. But that Is not everything because when you are not exposed at the sun anymore you also need to care about applying after sun this will help to alleviate the skin after a sun exposure. This is what I use at the moment:



I've been using this since last year and are my favourite so far. Aptonia sunscreen are moisturising solar gel cream which is really important because you're hydrated and sun protected at the same time and because is gel form (big bottle) or spray (little bottle) It makes it really easy to apply. The smell of those is really good as well because is not the typical sunscreen smell , It has a fruity smell. It doesn't leave white marks which I love , How many times did you reapplied sunblock anywhere out of your house and someone said to you : "Hey do you have some white mark because of the sunscreen there." Tell me , how many times? And last but not least are water resistant! how amazing is that?! :) This sunscreen is my favourite so far it has everything you need in a bottle! Sun protection (you choose the SPF), moisturizer, no white marks, smells good, easy to apply and water resistant. The big bottle (200ml)  is the one I apply at home or I wear in the beach bag or pool bag (SPF 50+), the little one (50ml) is always in my purse 'cause you don't want to be carrying a big bottle of sunscreen everywhere, if you're going shopping your body is also exposed to the sun so you also need to reapply the sunscreen sometime. (SPF 30)



When we are protecting our face from the sun we look for different sunscreen properties, that's why I bought those.
Both are L'oréal paris Solar expertise SPF 50+,avoids hyper pigmentation and prevents wrinkles. They smell like sunscreen, aren't totally water resistant (but I wish they were) although in the back says:"water resistant" It doesn't lasts   that long on to your skin .
But you can't have everything you wanted to and if you're not going to the pool or the the beach you need to apply sunblock but you don't need it to be water resistant. 
The difference between those is that the "big" bottle one (75ml) leaves a greasy effect on your skin (but it's my second bottle of it) and the little bottle one (50ml) is in liquid form and doesn't let your skin greasy.

How I said before after sun products are really important part of the solar exposition.
I use the Babaria Rosa Mosqueta which it hydrates your skin , anti-aging and photo protection. It smells really good, the scent is flowery but no sweet.(150ml) There are other products with rosa mosqueta , those do wonders to your skin. (check out the different products in the link down below)

This next product is a Korres after sun, it's ultra cooling and smoothing efect and you can notice that because leaves your skin fresh and smooth (You can keep it in the fridge for a maximum effect). It's in gel form so it's really easy to apply, it melts with your skin really gentle. is for face and body (although I use it on my face becouse I have a mini size (50ml)) But the most exciting is that ; smells like youghurt! :D yey! And it says "With real edible yoghurt
This after sun is by far the best I've ever tried. 

So this are my recomendations for summer, It works for me It might won't work for you but are products that are really dificult to hate (If you hate the yoghurt you may hate the last one) But anyways  no matter which product you are goning to use apply those regular on to your skin specially if you're goning to be exposed to the sun. 

GOOD LUCK!  Hope you like the post, here you have some links where you can find some of the products mentioned.If you have any question leave a comment below. Thanks for reading! :)

you can find it by : products>categories>korres suncare>yoghurt cooling efect.
L'oréal stuff : you can find it everywhere! :D

O.O.T.D (22/7/2012)

O.O.T.D = Outfit Of The Day


Hello, today I'm going to show you what I wore. I decided starting this type of posts because I love seeing others people.

Here where I live this lasts days have been so hot.
My style is casual, rocker , bohemian, just in case you are wondering. 


This is what I was wearing: 




jn
I bought this top at Primark last year , originally It was short sleeve but I decided to cut it. It also had a higher neck than now wich I didn't liked at all so I decided to cut ir as well. I didn't cut anything before that so I was a little skeptical about go ahead and do it without thinking how I wanted to be , but I did it anyways.


It was my first time cutting any top, so I cut the front and the back the same way so now this top has a open back. The firsts days I didn't liked at all, so I didn't wore it until this year. I found it in my closet and I still loving the design so .... :)


And you may think ; Why did you bought it if you cut it when it was new? I loved the design. It's all I can say. I'm not a big fan of thin stripes but the fabric feels so good.
I like this top but it's not my favourite.

When I cut the sleeves I had another problem: I cut those too much. So I did a knot in each strap. (how you can appreciate in the photo where I'm showing the back)

The shorts I was wearing are from Forever 21. They are dark blue denim shorts and they're also really comfortable and I love the detail that they have on the right leg. 

On my feet: 
This are my black trainers I wear those no matter if it's winter or summer. They have silver studs on both sides and they are really comfortable.

I bought those last year the day before I went to Berlin (I'll post something about it soon). We had really long walks and some of my friends were complaining about how much their feet were aching. 
And I was really impressed because they're new and if you are looking for some footwear for visiting some city this are perfect and they're available in some different colours.

ACCESSORIES :) 


Recently I have been wearing the same bracelets all the time but when I'm going to do some activity more sportive I change    a little bit. (you'll see it in one of my next O.O.T.D) 

The wood ones are from Blanco. The green one cost me 1€ somewhere near the beach just like the white one. Something that I love about the green one is the skull that is hanging.


And the last thing I've purchased is this watch It's simple, casual it goes with almost every outfit and you can't hear the sound of the seconds. (you'll understand what I mean when I'll post about my watches, I'm working on it as well)




A week ago I painted my nails myself with a new nail polish. I never saw that brand before it cost me 12 € so I was expecting it to be good but now (a week after) I have my nails almost like the first day ! How you can see on the photo they still perfect! (I'll do a post about that nail polish soon) 
About my hair: I was wearing my hair naturally curled. (I'll post a hair story)
About my makeup: I was wearing Teddy eyeliner by essence blend it all over my lid. The finish look was really natural, the only thing you can apreciate is a slightly brown shimmer on my lid wich I adore.


Hope you liked it! Follow me If you wanna read posts like this one! Thanks for reading! :) Have a nice day or night or what ever ^^
