New in│Drugstore buys

Hi people! I've been so busy with life I had no time to blog. I'm gonna write about some of that later, though, now onto some on-a-tighter-budget drugstore buys!

I was in fact on a hunt for a nice smelling body care product and as soon as I took a sniff of the Balea cocoa body butter, I was sold. It reminds me of The Body Shop's Chocomania range! The choice of conditioner was kind of a spur of the moment and I must say that so far it didn't impress me. It's not bad but nothing awesome. If there's something I definitely DON'T need, it's lippies. Anyway, I got 190 The Nuder The Better by Catrice and 01 Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate. The nailpolishes were on sale and they are 405 Rose Libertine by Rimmel, a very pretty retro-ish coral/pink shade, and Mistero Grey by Gabriella Salvete, a sparkle bomb with a sandy finish. The last thing I got is an eyeshadow duo by Dermacol I intend to carry around in my makeup bag for touch-ups and emergency cases.

What have you bought lately? Do you buy drugstore cosmetics?

Have a lovely evening!

New in│Lippies

Hello everyone! This morning, I realized this is my last week off before Uni starts. I'm quite excited about the whole thing of starting fresh (well, again) but I still have to run many errands and work so many things out, I'm a little scared of all the mess. Anyway, as I promised, here is the new-lipstick post (aka lipsticks take my mind off nasty stuff - for a while)!

After what I'd seen oh their website (look for Rimmel against animal testing), I went a little Rimmel-crazy. I picked up four shades; 07 - a pretty neutral colour very similar to my natural lip colour (but a tad darker), 12 - a bright orange on the verge of red, 02 - a bright hot pink, and Berry Queen - a dark red/purple (perfect autumn colour).

I also wanted to join the lip-colour-butter-balm-stain-Idon'tknowwhatelse bandwagon, so I gave this Astor one in Pink Lady (also after reading their animal-testing statement). Such a pretty colour but not moisturizing at all, I still want to try a different brand.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with the purchases. Today I'm wearing Rimmel 02, such a feel-good shade!

Hope you're all doing great! Have you bought some interesting lip products lately?
