REVIEW: Payot expert points noirs
I tried for a month the Payot expert points noirs cream and this is my review. I was looking for a cream that I could apply on my blackheads after I cleaned my face with a micellar water. Since I have mixed skin, it was very important for me that the cream would not awfully dry my skin. Review: What I expected from Payot expert points noirs: Make the black color of the blackheads disappear. To tighten the pores so it would look as if I have craters on my skin. To prevent further appearance of blackheads. To hydrate my skin. Review: What I liked about the Payot expert points noirs What the Payot…

REVIEW: Moroccanoil Hydrating Styling Cream
I received this Moroccanoil Hydrating Styling Cream as a gift. Because I have long, fine hair, prone to split ends, I use it in combination with this Moroccanoil treatment. I mix both products in my hand and I apply to my lengths (hair wet), then I blow dry or leave it to dry by itself. The styling cream is supposed to hydrate the hair and also have an frizz-ease effect. It hasn’t got any “hold” power. Although it does hydrate and does have an anti-frizz effect, it doesn’t do wonders. BUT I never met a product that did wonders to my hair and I can truly say this is the best…

REVIEW: Korres Lip Gloss (Cherry Light Pink no. 11)
I got the Korres Lip Gloss because I wanted a hydrating, tinted moisturizer and glossy “balm” for my lips. I remember I payed less than 10 Euros, but on their website I found it at the 15.50€ price. Maybe I just bought it on sale. Anyhow, I think that even 10€ is a little bit too pricey for what this lip gloss has to offer. The Korres Lip Gloss did the job I bought it for. It really was hydrating and glossy, but… it didn’t last on the lips. In one hour it was completely gone. Then again, it is a lip gloss, maybe it’s not unusual for a lip gloss to…

REVIEW: Collistar Shampoo Supernourishing
What is this shampoo supposed to do? They say: “Much more than just a shampoo, this product is an actual treatment which deeply nourishes the hair, leaving it soft and shiny.” The company also says that the Collistar Supernourishing Shampoo “nourishes, strengthens and protects, leaving hair soft, shiny and manageable”. OMG I am so annoyed and sick and tired from this deceptive lies in the description of a product. Why can’t companies just say what the thing really does? Plain as that?! Who the f. cares if you trick a few people to buy your sh**? No one is going to buy it again! Never! What it really does At first, it…

REVIEW: J’adore Dior Long Lasting or Not?
I never really understood the purpose of not-so-long lasting perfumes. Cheap perfumes last only one-two hours. What could I do with this time? If I go somewhere it takes me at least 30 minutes to reach the destination… well, anyhow, bottom line: I really do like long lasting perfumes. Before the J’adore perfume, I had a bottle of Alien from Thierry Mugler. Every time I wore that perfume, people told me how nice I smelled…. like 12 hours later. LOL. It really was long lasting. Unfortunately, I didn’t particularly like the smell (although it is a very beautiful smell, I felt it somehow didn’t suit me 100%). Also, sometimes I felt that…

REVIEW: Balea Anti-Spliss Serum Repair + Pflege
It’s been so many years since I’ve been using this serum. It is definitely one of the best hair products I’ve ever had and it is really cheap if you think about it: only 3 Euros. They say it is a professional serum, but it costs as much as any other drug store hair product. So, this is the one and only Balea Anti-Spliss Serum Repair + Pflege (anti split ends serum): I apply this product right after washing my hair, when the hair is still wet. It really does prevent split ends, but it won’t stick together the old split ends you already have (and I don’t believe in products that…

REVIEW: John Frieda Frizz Ease Shampoo
So my hair tends to be very frizzy and I tried many shampoos and hair balms and styling products that are supposed to make my hair silky and nice, but I had zero success with all of them… I read on the internet good things about the John Frieda Frizz Ease Shampoo. They have a whole line dedicated to frizzy hair and I thought I might give it a try. Well, unfortunately, I was really disappointed. When I took this photo, the bottle was almost empty. Although it didn’t do anything bad to my hair, it didn’t do anything for my frizz problem also. It felt and looked just as any…

REVIEW: Korres Shampoo Almond and Linseed for Dry or Damaged Hair
I got this Korres Shampoo Almond and Linseed from a drugstore. It was the first time I saw somewhere this brand. I got the shampoo for dry/damaged hair, which contains almond and linseed. The bottle looks like this: It was a good shampoo, I didn’t get dandruff from it, nor split ends. It was a pretty good experience. I didn’t buy it again because it didn’t impress me either. It was just one of the many other OK shampoos. I continue my quest in finding the perfect shampoo for my hair, but if you don’t really care, then the Korres shampoo is definitely a good choice.

REVIEW: Moroccan Oil Shampoo after 1 Month of Usage
There are several types of Moroccan Oil Shampoos: Moisture-and-shine Shampoo Fragrance Originale (and another 2 types of fragrances) Hydrating Shampoo Repair Shampoo Smooth Shampoo Color Shampoo Curl Enhancing Shampoo I’ve been using the first one, the Moroccan Oil Moisture and shine Shampoo, the one with the original fragrance and I’ve already written a first impression review about this Moroccan Oil Shampoo. That review contains also my impressions about the Moisture and shine conditioner, which I’ve been using together with the shampoo. Now, after 1 Month, my thoughts about this shampoo are: it smells amazing; the foam feels nice and luxorious; good for fine hair it is gentle with the scalp (the Moroccan Oil Shampoo is…

REVIEW: Bioderma Micellar Water Hydrabio H2O
The product: Bioderma Hydrabio H2O Micellar Water, Cleansing and Make-Up Removing Solution It is suitable for “dehydrated sensitive skin”. According to Bioderma’s website, the product is supposed to: Combines very high cleansing power and unparalleled tolerance Cleanses and removes make-up from the face and eyes Soothes and decongests and respects the skin balance Produces a feeling of instant freshness Non-rinse My skin type: I have mixed skin type. It is, as strange it may sound, both greasy and dry. It also gets flaky. If I apply a regular hydrating cream, the skin gets super greasy and in a few hours the flakes are back. If I apply a solution for…
