Glossybox 3rd Birthday

Glossybox is celebrating their 3rd birthday with a lovely matte looking box. The Glossy team kept the pastel pink shade but replaced the shiny glossy cover on their box. I have kept almost all of my boxes for storage - they are really cute, especially if there is a theme (Valentine's day, Independence day, Christmas etc). They look so beautiful! I always keep my things very organised and I don't see a reason to throw them away! I was looking forward for this months box. I got many emails from Glossybox before they sent this box out, giving away a few hints of what might be inside!






 

I'll start with the Kryolan Highlighter in shade Cashmere. Kryolan is a professional high end make up brand which has developed an exclusive highlighter just for Glossybox. I love the lid - it has a Glossybox logo on it and it has a cool design for the anniversary (reminds me of the box). This highlighter is lightweight and very creamy which makes it easy to apply. It provides cheekbones with a beautiful velvety shine. I have never heard of this brand before but I am definitely up for trying this product out. The shade looks very natural and I can see myself using this a lot. RRP £12.95 for full size product 4.5g.



 


I am super excited for the Philip Kingsley Elasticizer. I love hair treatments and this product is just so perfect for me! This pre-shampoo treatment, originally created specifically for Audrey Hepburn, is the world’s first pre-shampoo conditioning treatment. Intensely moisturising Elasticizer delivers a deep moisture to the hair’s cuticle, elasticity, manageability, bounce and shine without weighing down or coating the hair. It is also fragrance free and suitable for all hair textures. This treatment should be done before shampooing wet hair (applied to mid lengths and ends), covered with a shower cap and left in for 20 minutes or more, then rinsed and followed with shampoo and conditioner. Full size £38 for 250ml. Mine is a sample size of 40ml, which would be perfect to take with me when I am travelling around. I love doing treatments for hair/body when I am staying in hotels.


Comfort Zone is a brand I have never heard of before. I haven't used cleansing milk for years now as I haven't found a good facial cleanser. All of my previous ones have made my skin break out badly. This Essentials Cleansing Milk is something I am quite happy to try out though. The Glossy card describes this milk as gentle on the skin, containing anti-oxidants and hydrating active ingredients, which are perfect for daily use for all skin conditions. It removes make up/residues of debris in the morning/pollution perfectly and leaves skin healthy and balanced day after day. It should be applied to dry skin in the morning and evening, massaged gently, rinsed well or removed with a cotton pad. RRP £20 for 200ml.

 

I am so happy when I find Yves Rocher products inside my beauty boxes! It reminds me of when I was younger when I made cosmetic orders with my mum. She was constantly buying products from Yves Rocher and I was always there trying to get something for myself! I love nail polishes and there is never enough pretty pink shades. Yes, it is quite small but I am not complaining! For testing out it is just perfect and as I like making my nails colourful, it leaves plenty of room for other nail polishes! RRP £3.60 for a 3ml

 

I have been using Figs & Rouge Mini Hand Cream for a few days now and I am absolutely loving it! I can't believe how quickly it absorbs and also leaves hands so moisturised at the same time. It does not leave my hands greasy and I don't have to worry about leaving marks everywhere. This hand cream is enriched with shea butter, natural antioxidants and algea extract. Also it is strongly fragranced; I got Rose Berry, which smells amazing, just like candies! RRP £6.95 for a 80ml. Mine is sample size of 20ml. I guess I have to make an order soon to get a larger tube!



Lalique L'Amour is a fragrance for women launched in 2013. I love discovering new scents and I love getting small perfume testers from beauty boxes. The scent is very soft and sensual. It is still very flowery, so it is perfect for daytime wear. RRP £67 for 50ml.


I am very happy with this months box! I have made some great discoveries from new brands and am also very happy to try out all of the products. I love beauty boxes, they are like little presents you are waiting for every month.

Esimene trimester ehk esimesed kolm kuud \\ beebi number 2

Tere blogi, Jah, üllatus, üllatus, ma olen rase! Esimene trimester on läbi ja teen küsimused-vastused varjandis blogipostituse. Ausalt öeldes ei olnud mul just kõige kergem algus- jõetus, väsimus, iiveldamine ja oksendamine kestsid 6. nädalast kuni 13. nädalani. Ei tuleks vist eriti huvitav postitus, kui ma peaks kirjutama, kuidas ma kõik need nädalad voodis veetsin ja mitu korda päevas vetsupotti kallistasin, nii siis vastan pigem mõnedele esimese trimestriga seotud küsimustele.   Kuidas sa avastasid, et sa oled rase ja kuidas sa Tristanile ütlesid? Ühel reede hommikul ärkasin varem, et trenni teha. Jooksin jooksulindi peal umbes 30 minutit ja terve selle aja tundsin end imelikult. Umbes 5 minutit enne jooksmise lõppu tuli mul üles mega suur röhitsus ja natuke maomahla. See tunne oli nii tuttav! Tagasi tuppa tulles tegin veel Tristanile nalja, et olen vist rase. Terveks päevaks jäi see mõte mind kummitama ja ma ütlesin Tristanile, et peaks igaks juhuks rasedustesti tegema. Jä...

Minu lemmikud tooted - Austraalia eri

Tere blogi, vahelduseks kõigile nendele raseduse postitustele panin kokku väikse listi oma viimase aja lemmikutest toodetest. Olen eelistanud niinimetatud kodumaist, ehk siis kõik tooted on Austraalias tehtud-toodetud-valmistatud.   asap Revitalising Bodyscrub   Paar kuud tagasi otsisin endale uut kehakoorijat ja komistasin juhuslikult sellise brändi otsa nagu asap . Mulle meeldis just see, et nende tooted on looduslikud, vegan ja valmistatud siin Austraalias. Pudel on hea suurusega (200 ml) ja maksab 50 dollarit (umbes 30 eurot). See kehakoorija sisaldab ka minu lemmikut glükoolhapet, mis on tugev antioksüdant, põletikuvastase toimega, nahka niisutav ja stimuleerib kollageeni loomist. Kasutan suhteliselt kokkuhoidlikult - umbes vutimuna suurune kogus ja sellest piisab täiesti käia üle kohad, mis enim muret teevad. Olen kasutanud seda kehakoorijat kaks korda nädalas. Hõõrun õrnalt umbes paar minutit ja loputan siis duši all maha. Nahk on pärast mega pehme ja mina nägin mu...

Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide - Starting again

The last time I posted about my workout regime was in November last year when I started the Kayla Itsines BBG healthy eating plan and 12 week workout sessions. I think I got up to week 4 before I lost my motivation because of illness and Christmas. My friend Marianne and I started BBG again on the 5th of January with thousands of other girls and joined #thekaylamovement and #kaylasarmy to share our journey along this painful but exciting path.  You can read my first post about the BBG programme here as I am explaining a bit more on how I 'found' Kayla and how the training works.  I have done BBG for 5 weeks now (the first 2 weeks we did pre-training) and I'm feeling quite positive. I've not seen much progress myself - I still have my weak areas like tummy, bum and thighs. I do feel much stronger though! I'm doing all of the workouts properly, I have strength in my legs and arms - it is quite easy to do 10 push ups and continue with triceps and mountain clim...
