Few months ago I read a review on Neutrogena peeling pads (not sure about the exact product name) and last week, when I was in Muller drugstore, I noticed that their brand duchesse also has peeling pads and I decided to give them a try since they were cheap – $2 for 30 peeling pads. So far I tried it 3 times and here’s my opinion on such product. Here’s how they look like:
I think this is the only type of peeling pads Muller has. One side of the pad is smooth, and on the other there are teeny tiny blue particles which are perfect for peeling. I use these when I wash my face with gel and instead of using my hands I use one peeling pad to clean my face and at the same time to do a peeling on my skin. The peeling effect is medium gentle, the pad absorbs most of the water and gel so there isn’t much for me to rinse off. After this, skin is *really* soft and smooth. It’s unbelievable! And I also noticed I don’t have those tiny blemishes on my chin.
This seems like a nice substitute for regular peeling, perfect for traveling and especially if you’re lazy like me to use peeling regularly. :D I do wash my face every evening so it’s not difficult to rub it a bit with a peeling pad. :)

Last week I reviewed Revlon’s Peachy Keen Blush from A Floral Affair Collection so I won’t be reviewing this one, but I’ll post my photos so you could see how it looks.
Hushed blush is VERY light shade, it’s more like a light highlighter than a blush, and I don’t think it would show much on someone with any darker skin than NW20. I use it alone and with another blush.
Anyway, I love this Revlon’s collection, find it to be VERY beautiful!
You can see my swatches after the cut but they don’t look anything good because I just couldn’t take a good photo of them. In person it looks much better, trust me, but at least you can get the idea of how light this blush is. :)

If you had to choose ONLY 5 beauty products, which ones would those be?
Hmm, I find this quation the worst type of questions, but here’s my try :D
- liquid foundation – Oriflame T-balance
- lipstick – catrice Lasting Dream lipstick
- blush – essence Best Friends
- eyeshadow – 120 eyeshadow palette (is this even ONE beauty product? I think it is…)
- gel eyeliner – black (MAD Minerals)
Are these answers telling me I could actually live without all those stuff I have? :D

2 days ago my boyfriend got me this palette at Sephora and I’d probably never choose it (yes, I choose all my gifts when it’s about cosmetics :D ), but since it was quite cheap – from $50 to $28 – I thought it was a good deal and I don’t think I was wrong!
I haven’t tested it yet, I tried it only at Sephora, but I have to say it smells deliciously (like candies!), and these eye shadows don’t seem like any shade I already own (and that is a shock! lol :D but it’s true). :)
This palette contains:
Eyes
- eyeshadow Milk Chocolate, George & Weezie, Boy Toy, Label Whore, London Calling, Glamazon, Dirt Big, Party Girl, Neptune (0,90 g x 9)
- Shadow Insurance eyeshadow primer (3 g)
Lips
- lip glosses I’m Perfect, I Love Myself, Don’t Hate Me (1,28 g x 3)
Face
- La Vie En Rose Blush (2,5 g)
- Chocolate Soleil Bronzer (4 g)
Check out more photos of this gorgeous palette!

This weekend I didn’t post anything because I was on a short trip to Bosnia and Herzegovina, and yesterday I did some crafts so decided not to post at all until Monday.
Last week, another Croatian beauty blog had a giveaway with essence products so for that opportunity I took photos of my essence collection, and though I didn’t win anything, I’m showing it to you now. It would be a shame not to show it. :D
I think you’ll get the idea about which products I prefer and with time, this collection grew. What does your essence makeup collection looks like?
All together 
Check out detailed photos!

About 10 days ago I came across these 3 summer looks by Rimmel London and I completely forgot to post them! Anyway, I remembered today to do that so here they are. :)
These seem like nice summer looks, one look for each occasion and I think they’re worth trying. As you can see, these are more like tutorials and you can see how they were created. :) I think I’ll try one of these looks this weekend, probably the 1st one . I also like the last one too. It’s a great dramatic look!
Which one is your favorite? :)

I already wrote few posts on ArtDeco eye shadows, reviews to be exact, and you can read those here and here, and since I don’t want to repeat myself, I decided just to post these 4 eyeshadow at one place together. I really love these eyeshadows, they’re highly pigmented and long-lasting and they’re not even *that* expensive until you compare the amount you get to the price, but I tend not to think about that too much because they’re really good. :D
Well, let’s get to the pictures! It’s much more interesting than me talking. :D
Do you own any of these? Want to recommend any? :)
Check out more photos and swatches!

I love to buy blushes and to have them a lot, but more than that I love when I get a blush for only few $, like this one! This brand is sold here in Croatia in a store called Offertissima, it’s really not a special store, they contain mostly products for households, but they also have few beauty brands (cheap ones) and VERA is one of them. Of course, I had to get this loose powder to test it and to see if it was worth any of my attention.
I was quite surprised with the formula which was really nice and it’s high intensity so it has to be applied carefully. It comes in few different shades but I got this, dirty pink one to test it. It’s also shimmery, but it looks nice when blended out.
The best thing is it contains 15 grams (!) and it costs only $2! :D I have to be honest and say that I was quite skeptical in the beginning, but decided to give it a chance since there are few other cheap and good brands like essence or e.l.f. so why skipping this one? :)
Check out more photos and swatches!
