Violet box october 2014!

Wednesday 29 October 2014

Hey guys,
It is time to unbox the violet box :)


Wotnot facial wipes for oily/sensitive skin
I received this in either bellabox last month or the parcel not sure but I don't mind receiving it twice, who doesn't like facial wipes they always come handy specially because I travel a lot and I always need facial wipes with me on the plane or in my luggage! 

PHR Professional Haircare Recovery leave-in-moisturiser 


I was glad I got this, my hair is not in a good condition right now so I needed this really. I'm trying lots of different products for my hair and this will come in handy. I love that it has natural ingredients too! 

Designer brands lip pencil 


I haven't tried this lip liner on my lips yet but when I swatched this on my hand I noticed that its creamy and so easy to apply and I love the shade I got (Fuchsia Rose) 


Designer Brands Eternal Colour Lipstick

I love the shade I got (rose brown) it suits me perfectly and it is very creamy. I loved this product. 

Haughty Cosmetics Perfect Finish Lipgloss


I got this in pull it together, beautiful orangy/red colour, not bright and not dark. 
This brand is a U.S brand that I havem't heard of before but I really like the lipgloss it's not sticky and feels good on the lips. 

Eslor Introductory Collection


This includes a soothing refiner and cleanser, firming collagen day cream, botanical peeling gel and chlorophyll lifting mask. Haven't tried anything from this brand before but I'm super excited to try the botanical peeling gel and chlorophyll lifting mask! 

So yeah that's all I got.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with this month's box.

Bellabox october 2014

Wednesday 29 October 2014

I have just received my bellabox yesterday so decided to do the unboxing today! 

So finally after two months of subscription I received my stuff in a box! 
I love the colour, its just so pretty to look at! 

Lets get to business,

1- Kester black for bellabox nail polish - ruby tuesday


They say its long-wearing, chip resistant and 100% vegan. I didn't have the chance to try it yet but will let you know how I like it once I do.

2- Rimmel apocalips
I loved this lipstick, really loved it. Unfortunately, I have received it like this. Opened and I don't know if its knew or not so I won't be using it but will def get a new one because this is the thing I loved the most in this month's box!

Look at this colour, oh my god it is amaazing! 

3- MOR hand cream

Haven't used it yet but I have the scrub in the same scent and I love it. 

4- NIVEA stress protect deodrant 

This mini deodrant will come in handy when I travel ( I travel a lot! ), so I'm happy that I received it.

5- Modelco skincare
I have used them all yesterday, I definitely noticed that my face has been less oily today but it might be because I used a new toner today. I don't know really! 

As bonus I have received this Pantene shampoo and conditioner but actually I have received the same shampoo and conditioner from the parcel by marie claire. So I have tried it before but didn't like it that much. 


Overall, I was impressed in this month's box but was disappointed because of the lipstick.

Bellabox is a monthly subscription box, it costs $15 a month and here is their website:

Tarte Amazonian Clay Powder Foundation Review!

Wednesday 22 October 2014

Hii guys...
I've been trying some mineral makeup lately and one of the things I stumbled upon is this Tarte amazonian clay full coverage airbrush foundation $36.

هل ايام وايد قاعده احاول استخدم مكياج معدني اكثر وانا ادور فاونديشنز لقيت هل فاونديشن العجييب!!


So that's what they say:
Seamlessly brush over imperfections with this waterproof, weightless powder foundation that delivers up to 12 hours of natural-looking, full coverage for a flawless, airbrushed appearance.





Ok so I've been using this foundation for the past 3 to 4 weeks and I'm loving it, it is now my go to foundation but..

Full coverage? No.
I would say you can build this up to a meduim cover maximum, it doesn't cover scars or veins. I only had this one scar and its not that bad I tried to build this up but no it couldn't cover it so I had to use a concealer to cover it up. 

Other than that it does what is says, lasts 12 hours? I would say yes. I had this on from 7 am until 12 am and it still looked flawless and I only had to powder my nose once even though I have super oily skin! 
I just love the lasting power of this, its rare that I find a foundation that keeps me matte for so long.

Airbrushed appearance? Yes, yes and yes. I love the final look of this foundation. My mum got this after she saw how flawless and airbrushed it looks! 

صارلي اكثر من 3 اسابيع استخدم هل فاونديشن و حيل حبيته صار اكثر فاونديشن استخدمه بس..
ما اشوف ان اهو فول كوفر مثل ما مكتوب عليه اكثر شي ممكن يوصله ان يكون ميديوم كوفر مو اكثر .. يعني اثار الحبوب مثلا او حتى العروق مايغطيهم .. بالنسبة لي انا زين لان ما احتاج تغطيه وايد بشرتي مافيها تصبغات ولا حبوب او اثار الحبوب الا وحده ومو وايد تبين ف ماتفرق معاي :)
الي تحتاج فول كوفر ما انصحها فيه

مكتوب ان يبقى على البشره 12 ساعة و معاي اي بقى حطيته من 7 ص الى 12 ص و ما اشوف ان تغير او تحرك او شي ما احتجت الا اني احط بودر مرة وحده و بس على خشمي ... انا بشرتي حيل دهنية ف استغربت ان فيه فاونديشن ممكن يخليها مات طول هل مده!!

واحلى شي فيه ان لما تحطين مايبين انج حاطه شي على ويهج نهائيا!!! الفنش حده عجييب

How I apply: 
I use real techniques buffing brush and buff the foundation into my skin. This gives me a really flawless finish.

اشتخدمه مع فرشة البفنق من ريل تيكنيكس بس سمعت ان الفنش مالته تصير وايد احلى مع فرشته من تارت ف قلت بشتريها و بشوف اذا في فرق ولاا لا

My friend told me it applies even better with tarte airubuki bamboo powder foundation brush so I might get the brush and see how it goes.
