New Closet Staple - Denim Shorts

Image
Hello everybody! After a rather long break of not posting at all, due to too many work days, I'm now back with a post I decided to do spontaneously. On Tuesday, which was rainy and grey, like most of the week was, I made my way to TkMaxx, which unfortunately is pretty far from where I live. I still decided to use that day instead of just sit at home and watch some series on repeat. And I'm so glad I went! I haven't bought a lot, but just a few things that I actually like a lot - just like these denim shorts. You will know by now that I am very much the skirt/ dress- person and I don't really like wearing tight shorts that make your thighs want to explode the second you sit down. I love skirts for being so comfy, so recently I even threw out all my old denim shorts I had in my closet, because I thought it was useless keeping them if I don't even wear them more than once a year. I mean, some of them were just sitting on the shelf without being worn in like ...

Ziaja Body Lotion Review

Image
Hi again! A few weeks ago I already posted a photo on my Instagram ( which is here ), where I showed the 4 Ziaja body lotions I got to try and when I saw their generous packaging my first thought was: When will I use these all? But I was very happy about that because I got to find out which one is my favourite and which one I like using more on certain days etc. Thanks to the big choice I can also stay away from buying even more body lotions, which is great! ( I'm so into body lotions, it's crazy) The 3 bottles are 400ml each and they are from the Cocoa butter , Goat's milk and Natural Olive range.  The Coconut lotion comes in a 200ml packaging, so it's good for taking it on holidays or on a sleepover etc.  To give you an idea of these products I will quickly talk you through them. Let's start with the Olive range: It moisturises your skin thoroughly and leaves it silky soft and smooth. What is also great about it, is that it can even be use...

My Fave Spring Lipsticks

Image
After a longer break I'm back ( yes, I should be studying right now for my exams next week), because I thought that I really need to provide you with a new post finally again even though I don't have too much time. Now, today I wanted to show you an updated version of my favourite lipgsticks at the moment. ( Note: I have cold sores and my lips always are in the worst condition during that time, so I didn't choose the topic on the best day but well.) I picked 4 lipsticks that I use the most at work and uni too. I think they are great colours for spring, though I would also wear them all around the year because I don't think like those shades are only good for sunny, warm months. Let's start with the one I use the most. It's the KIKO Smooth Temptation matte lipstick in the shade 05. I use it so often because it is so easy to apply thanks to its small tip. Since my lips are often packed with cold sores, my lip contour kind of faded in some places...

My OOTD: Fave New Blouse

Image
Hello my dear friends! Uni got a bit stressful recently because I have some upcoming exams and obviously that's the reason why I don't get to blog really. And trust me - it annoys me so much! But now I have a short break from uni so it's a good time to upload a new post before I head back for some more classes. Right? I actually wanted to take photos in the park beside uni because the weather is so pretty, but unfortunately none of my friends were there to take some quick shots. And now I sadly have to share some lower quality photos with you but I like this outfit so much that I just can't not show you! I applied some eyeshadow today because I thought it would match the blouse nicely. I used my Bourjois Quad in Rose Quartz and I really like those delicate shades! I wanted to apply a nude-pinky lipstick but due to my massive cold sore I just couldn't. I hate it when I get them. They ruin my whole look but I got used to them already and know there's noth...

KIKO Lipstick Haul

Image
Hello everybody! A few days back I went to town go get myself a certain lipstick from KIKO and there I decided to get a second one too, because why not? So, I wore those lipsticks a few times already but didn't have a good occasion to take proper pictures of them and to write something here. So, maybe you've already seen the Endless Love lipstick range- it is just SO cute! I couldn't decide what colour to choose, but I went for the dark pinky-purply shade that I think matches my complexion the best. The shade is called 05 Soft Marsala and what I absolutely love about this lipstick is that the heart already tells you exactly what the colour looks like. It's not only cute-looking but also practical. But obviously the main reason why I got the lipstick from the Best Friends Forever collection is the shape of it! They are all heart shaped and it seemed to be just such a fun thing. I really wanted to have a lipstick like that and so I just got it straight away....

My Summer Hair Care

Image
This summer turned out to be incredibly hot with plenty of sunshine here in Poland, which is pretty good because I get a tan and look healthier, but for my hair it's probably not the best thing in the world. Today I wanted to show you which products I use to keep my hair in the best condition possible ( I hope!). So, first of all, my hair already got pretty long by the end of June, so I knew I needed to cut it again because I had split ends and the ends were basically pretty dry and my hair didn't look that pretty any more. Personally, I prefer healthier to longer hair. Yes, I do want to have long hair, but I want it to be healthy and beautiful. I cut my hair in the second/third week of July, and I got about 10 cm chopped off, which made my hair look much nicer already. This was basically my first step to taking care of my hair during summer. While being by the seaside ( before cutting my hair), I bought some different hair masks to try out and I also got a new conditione...

Spring Nail Polish | Beauty

Image
Since the weather is really getting nice recently, with more sunny and warm days and flowers starting to show up everywhere, I feel like spring is finally coming! The temperature stays at around 10 degrees and I really hope that it will rise a bit more soon and that the terrible wind will go by too. For this reason I felt like showing you the nail polishes I'll be wearing throughout this spring, since I really like the fresh, but delicate colours. Most of them are pastels and I think they are great for spring! I didn't want to go crazy and chose all the shades from my little collection and tried to show about 5- so we have six. At first I would like to mention the Ciate paint pot in the shade PP102 DOLLS HOUSE. It is a nude, shiny nail polish, with teeny tiny sparkly bits in it. It is kind of translucent but it does give you a very light pink shade. I think this is great for girls who prefer to keep their nails simple, but to actually have some detail on them. ...

Wasp Attack And Ferret Playtime

Image
Today i was in the garden with my house mate and we were chatting a bit. I was standing and I was wearing shorts and just a spaghetti top as it was really warm. Suddenly a crazy wasp flew by and she just stung me right into my thigh without any reason! This was so painful that I ran upstairs and Eryk wanted to see if my leg was alright but when he wanted to touch it it was just so sore that I was basically screaming. Not good. it is good to poor some vinegar on the place you got stung but we didn't have any at home so I even called my parents what to do to get rid of the pain but they also told me to get some vinegar. Well, so I had to cope with the pain throughout the whole day. Some time later Eryk and I went outside because we needed to go to the bank. However it was closed already and we went back home. It was a really sunny and warm day but it is also very very windy! When we came home, Karina, Eryk's sister, already arrived as she's going to stay with us for the next...

2 OOTD's And Sleepy Girls

Image
Yesterday the weather was so lovely already after this long week of rainfall. But today the weather changed again and it was raining so heavily that going out is not a pleasure. On such days, when weather is changing, I am so tired that I just take some naps throughout the day.  I however did my make up and put on normal clothes, not clothes for staying at home on a lazy day, and I cleaned the bathroom, the living room and kitchen. Also our room and I was playing with baby Maya.  Actually, Eryk's sister Karina arrived yesterday and she is supposed to stay some days with us and she wanted to come over today but it was raining so heavily that she just couldn't get out of the house. And I didn't even want to open the window because the cold air was coming inside very fast and the rain was very loud, which already scared me. After cleaning up and having a short break I cooked some rice with vegetables for myself and Eryk and he was still hungry and wanted some sandwiches...

Good products under 5 €

Image
Hello! Today I thought I would show you products that cost less than 5   €  and that are working really well. Also, I would do a post with products from 5 to 10  €  and maybe products from 10 to 20  € . After that I would also want to show things that cost less than 10 £ ,because I also have some of them. I am a person that likes to try out cheaper things before I buy more expensive ones, however these are the products I would buy again and again. 1) My Face Yound Matt Finish Shine-Control sheets: The name of it tells everything about the product, it has  a handy pocket, so that you can take it with you if you feel like it. It contains 50 sheets, you just press them onto your oily face parts and you are ready to go! I love this product and I will surely buy it again as it really works for me and especially in summer it is a must-have in my beauty products collection. It costs something over 1 €   so it is really affordable and worth the price....

My small nail polish Collection :)

Image
Good afternoon! :) Today is a cloudy day and not really pretty to be outside, so I am quite happy that I can stay in bed some more time until I get healthy again! At first I wanted to do an other entry, but in the end I decided that the other one is more work and I can't do it today, but I will soon! :) So today is about my tiny nail polish collection. I don't have a lot of them because usually I have gel nails, but as all my nails just broke, I am doing a small break from gel and I am using my nail polishes now, so that's the reason why I am posting this :) Let's get started! Here they are! First of all there are my six Essie nail polishes that I own. I really like the texture of them and how they look like on my nails. They are my favourites in fact. So the colours from left to right are:  1) 24- In stitches 2) 79- Sand Tropez 3) 75- Smokin hot 4) 94- Lapiz of luxury 5) 98- Turquoise& caicos 6) 102- Play date Then we have s...
