Help Needed in deciding :)

Hey guys! So I'm going to a b-day party Saturday and I've bought a dress and a blazer for this occasion.

 Dress and blazer from Nissa.Oh btw really nice staff at the store in Afi Cotroceni.I must have tried on about a dozen dresses and she was nice and patient and not pushy at all :)First enjoyable shopping experience I've had in a couple of months.Oh and another btw I've got to tell you guys about this really awesome sales person at Sephora Militari.She is amazing!

Buuuut .....I have 3 major concerns regarding it :

1.Is  it too long ? I usually don't even look at dresses that long but I irrevocably fell in love with the print :X
2.Is it too formal ? It's a 18th birthday so formal is good but how formal is too formal ? I should really stop saying formal :))
3.What shoes to wear with it ? I have some really cute boots in a deep cream shade but are those too informal?
Do the styles clash ?
OH  and additional issues ....black tights or just good old leg coloured (culoarea piciorului :)))) how the heck do you translate that into english without sounding retarded? ) ones?

Also accesories !I was thinking something like this maybe ?

Oh and hair and makeup wise I was thinking a retro kind of look :) Hair slightly up and full on liner and red lips or maybe a soft smokey eyes ?

Please post your comments below and help me decide :))
Thanks so much guys :*

First couple of weeks with Ivatherm

Hey guys :*

I am now in my third week of testing Ivatherm products :)
I gave my mom the roscea cream and I started using the Acne Syt

First I'm going to tell you what my mom told me :

''this moisturizer is very hydrating and the redness has reduced a bit ''

Very detailed description now isn't it ?
:)) Sorry but since my mom tried this out I can't tell you more about it !


Now for the Acne Syt :
I've used Effaclar Duo for about a year or so before trying Acne Syt and I must tell you I was quite scared before making the switch.What is my skin reacts badly ,what if I breakout and all that jazz.

But I gathered up courage and I gave it a try and I have to admit,it 's quite something and I'm not just saying that because I got it for free:))

It really has reduced the number of breakouts and it has improved my skin.Not a miracle worker ,I don't actually believe you can cure serious skin conditions just externally but it has made life so much easier for me now :) I still have to wait a little bit longer for the full effect but it's working just fine for me until now :)

Airbrush By Dinair

Hey guys :)
I am beyond happy now as I have received my Dinair Airbrush Kit :X I have wanted this system for about 1 year or so and it's finally mine :X
I have problematic ,oily skin and every foundation I use ends up looking really weird by the fifth hour so I  was looking forward to trying this and seeing if it really works better than regular makeup.


I 'm just going to show what I got in the package :)
I chose the Beauty Studio Kit which contains :

  • 8 colours
  • Airbrush Gun
  • Compressor 
  • Air shadow stencil 
  • Eyebrow stencils 
  • Lesson Cd 
Price :259$

Afterwards I added :

  • 2 shades of Paramedical Foundation
  • Blue ,Red ,Yellow,White ,Black Fantasy Colours (to be able to mix and match to create custom colours )
Bringing the total to 320$( a lot ,I know :)) )

Also ,I just wanted to mention that I managed to persuade someone into getting it for me and ship it here because the shipping to Romania is a nightmare,210 $ just for the shipping which is insane :|


I 'm super happy with my purchase and I must say I consider it an investment :)








I'm going to be back in a day with a FOTD using airbrush makeup:)

Skincare routine.

Hey guys :) Hope you're having a great week.
Today I'm just going to talk about my daily routine.I'm quite particular about the products that go on my face since I have sensitive skin ,prone to imperfections, so I carefully choose the things that I use.

I've had this routine for about 4-5 months and while it's not my holy grail ( i'm constantly on the lookout for the the best on the market ) it works with my skin and it keeps the breakouts at a minimum.


A.M:

1.Wash my face with a face gel from La roche Posay.I'm a big fan of face washes.I find that this is not overly drying and it controls my very oily  skin while still effectively removing impurities.This doesn't have that tight skin effect that other face washes have.


2.I then move on to moisturizer and for the morning I use Nivea Mattifying Day Care.I have tried so many moisturizers but some of them were awful makeup bases meaning they overly dried my face or they broke me out:(
This one is the perfect combination.It's a gorgeous makeup base and it keeps the shine away( as  much as possible )

3.I evidently use lip balm (like crazy if I may add ) I'm currently in love with this one,Palmer's Lip Butter -Dark Chocolate and Peppermint.Best lippie ever!


P.M:

1.I take my makeup off with Bioderma Sensibio H2O.One word :Awesome!! It's effective in removing makeup yet not greasy and sticky.My face feels refreshed after using this.


2.Wash my face with the same gel as A.M.I can't go to sleep unless my face is squeaky clean:|

3.Put on Effaclar Duo.Really good for skin with severe imperfections.It keep them at bay as much as possible.

4.Lip balm myself with the butter from Palmer's.

So that's it :) Not too complicated !Maybe this was interesting:)
