Test: Alverde all in one mascara

Hello,

yesterday I wen't to an english class at my uni and I had some time before lecture started so I went to the Drogerie Markt or DM as some of you know it, and I got their Alverde mascara all in one.
I can't say it's the best mascara ever, but it's an everyday mascara when you don't need your lashes to look super big and full.
Take a look at it yourself...




I have to mention that I like the brush and the smell of mascara.
And that my lashes are short and blonde so not many mascaras can make them look long and full.

before
then

*You can buy this mascara in DM for 3, 95€

Christian Lacroix Nuit





Hello,

last week I decided to try out the new fragrance by Christian LAcroix for Avon called Nuit.
I absolutely fell in love with it's bottle and name. When it arrived I couldn't wait to try it out.
Fragrance itself is really strong and perfect for cold days that are comming and even more for freezing evenings and never ending partys.

"The composition is rich oriental, floral opening with fresh notes of bergamot, neroli and honeysuckle. Sensual flowers of jasmine, tuberose and narcissus are located in the heart of the perfume, supported by the luxurious base of amber, incense, musk and woody notes." by fragrantica.com

All I can say is that this is one of those fragrances you need some time to get used to them. After some time I will be able to tell how much do I like it :-)
How ever I like the bottle and now it's up to weather to give me a chance to wear it.
And the price is 36€ for 50 ml.

That's all..see you soon!

All my love, -Mara

L'occitane on a test...


Hello,

Last week I was in Portoros and as I was walking down the street I saw L'occitane store and in I went...I got myself four of their most sold items. Shampoo and a conditioner + cherry blossom body wash and body lotion.

Shampoo and conditioner don't smell very nice. A bit herbal and not what I expected it to be. I hate to say it, but my hair didn't feel so good after using it as it does after John Frieda frizz ease (my fav).
I would not recommend you buying this two products. 
How ever I am happy to say I will definetly purchase a full size bottle of cherry blossom body lotion in the near future. The smell of it makes me happy instantly and it leaves your skin soft and beautiful. I also like the sower gel. Smells nice and foams beautifully.
I must say that people working at L'occitane are very nice everytime you come by, nomatter if you buy something expensive or not. And they love to give you free samples! :-)
L'occitane is one of my favorite shops.

All my love, -Mara
