Garnier All-In-One BB Cream Light



Hi,

A couple of months ago I already posted about the Garnier All-In-One BB cream and in this review I said I had the medium one, which was too dark for me. So when that one was empty, I decided to try out the lighter one.

The texture and contents stay the same of course (so check my last review if you want to read more about that), but I was worrying a bit if it would cover enough. I already thought the medium one wasn't covering enough, altough it was way darker than my own skin. But I tested this one out anyway and it's about as covering as the medium one. This means it doesn't give you a super perfect looking skin, but if covers worst imperfections, which is already okay for me.

I prefer this one over the medium one though, because it looks more natural on my skin. The medium BB cream was a bit too dark for me, but this one is the exact right color.



Like I already said in my previous review, it lasts very long. My last one was empty about a month ago and I have been using it for over a year.

Essie Good To Go Top Coat


Hi,

So my goal for this year was to invest in better nail polishes. A top coat is one of the most important steps of applying nail polish, so I wanted to buy a really good one. And since I heard so much about Essie's Good To Go top coat, I bought this one.



First of all I love the brush of this nail polish. It's something you don't really think about, but a good brush makes applying nail polish so much easier. Actually all the nail polishes of Essie have this kind of brush, so just for that I would already be prepared to pay a bit more.

What I really love about this top coat and what I haven't experienced with another top coat before, is that this top coat really seals your design and fills in any gaps. So if you made a mistake or so, you can just put this top coat overneath and it will look like nothing has happend.

Also like the name of this top coat already says: it dries really quickly! And come on, none of us have the time to wait for there nail polish to dry.

It really is the best top coat I have ever tried, so I really recommend you to buy it, even though it's a bit more on the pricey side.

Spotted: Gisele Bünchen

Hi

This week Gisele Bünchen, face of Chanel, was spotted in this beautiful outfit at Chanel's Cruise 2016 show in Seoul.
She chose to wear a whole black outfit with some gold and white details. Monochrome outfits always look very chic, especially when topped off with some statement jewelry pieces. I really love her bracelets. They're just simple gold ones, but they make the look complete.
Her outfit is, of course, from Chanel.

Shoplog: A Meaningful Necklace


Hi,

Yesterday I went shopping in Antwerp and when I was in Urban Outfitters, I saw this range of necklaces with the symbols of the zodiac signs on it. I always wanted a meaningful, small necklace. You know, these kind of necklaces you can wear daily that say something more about yourself. So I was very excited when I saw these necklaces.



I was very lucky, because there was only one left with my zodiac sign, which is scorpio. On the package it also said something about the caracter of people who are scorpio, even though I think mine didn't really match with my caracter, I think it's very fun to read these kind of things. I really like that Urban Outfitters thinks about these little details on the package.

This necklace cost € 15,00, which is a little more then I would normally give for a necklace. But then I also have high hopes for this necklace being good quality. I will let you know when I know more about its quality, so stay tuned for that!

Why Not To Wear Make-up While Working Out

Beach

Hi,

It isn't easy to keep looking good while working out since sports wear is always a bit less flattering and your hair probably gets all messy (check out our post about workout hairstyles to prevent that). So many girls decide to wear make-up but that's something you should never-ever do!
Your pores set out while sporting and you'll probably sweat a bit. You're skin really needs to breathe at this point and that's impossible when your wearing foundation. When your skin is too much covered you'll get acne and a unhealthy looking skin.
So never put on make-up to go out sporting and try to remove it before going to the gym.
What you can do instead of putting on make-up is washing your skin and putting on a hydratating serum. When you're done, clean your skin again and put on some day cream.
Hopefully this'll help you getting a beautiful, healthy skin!
