Bargain Beauty: Catrice Cosmetics Liquid Liner Waterproof
A midnight-Black flick along the eyes is a women’s desire all around the world. Some like it thin and feminine, others go for thick and bold. No matter what your style is, to achieve the perfect flick a good eyeliner is a necessity. Throughout the years I’ve tried several products from gel liners to eyeliner pens and liquid liners to simple pencils.
For years I could not go a day without my beloved MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack. But once I got a bit tired of the entire gel liner-shtick, I decided to go back to an old love. An eyeliner that actually never let me down, and still has me wondering why I left it in the first place? Of course I’m talking about Catrice’s Liquid liner Waterproof in Don’t Leave Me!

Review & Swatches: BECCA Shimmering Skin Perfector “Pearl”
As I mentioned in my March Hits and Oh God NO’s, the month of March has been all about glowy, luminous looking skin for me. Right in time, because the radiant, hyper-real skin trend has been taking the world of beauty by storm. The runways were filled with shiny cheekbones and highlighted noses, while I was still powdering the hell out of mine.
Time for a change, and with that change came BECCA’s Shimmering Skin Perfector in Pearl…

Review: Dove Invisible Dry Test Panel
Because my test panel was Dutch, this blogpost will continue in Dutch, my apologies.
Vorige week heb ik jullie geïntroduceerd aan Dove’s verbeterde Invisible Dry Line—een lijn die op 100 kleuren is getest en geen vlekken of een Witte waas achterlaat na aanbrengen—en vroeg ik 7 van mijn bezoekers om de verbeterde lijn te testen. “My Lucky 7”, zoals ik ze graag noemde, kregen elk een persoonlijk pakketje met daarin de nieuwe Invisible Dry Line, en werden gevraagd de deodorant te testen. Ik vroeg ze 3 simpele dingen: Test de deodorant, schrijf je ervaringen op en deel het met de wereld!
En de resultaten zijn binnen…

New Dove Invisible Dry
The weather has been unbelievably nice here in The Netherlands, and there’s something you should know about the Dutch: When the weather hits above 15ºC, we like to ignore the fact that it’s still quite chilly out, and wear shorts with flip-flops and a flowy top. But one thing the Dutch lack in is color. Yes, we wear Pastels, Prints and other abstract things, but a plain, bright solid color is something us Dutchies are still a little afraid of.
That’s why Dove has reinvented their Invisible Dry line—a line that has been tested on 100 colors and won’t leave behind any stains upon application or remove white marks—and dares all women to wear more color. Dove asked women to test Invisible Dry on clothes, watch this video to see the results!

Review & Swatches: KIKO “Addictive Song” Eyeshadow Palette
A couple of weeks ago, the boyfriend and I traveled to the city of love: Paris. And while the main goal of our trip was to celebrate our 1-year-anniversary and going to a L’oreal Cacharel event, I of course couldn’t stop myself from buying products from brands that aren’t available here in The Netherlands. One of those brands: KIKO.
When walking into the store, my eyes first landed upon KIKO’s Spring/Summer collection. I already showed you some of the products in this Paris Haul video, but I wanted to let you take a closer look at this stunning palette called Addictive Song…
