I bought Essence’s “make me brow” mascara 2 or 3 months ago, and I started trying it out immediately. At first I wasn’t very impressed with it, because it didn’t add anything special to my brows. My opinion hasn’t changed a lot since then, but I do use it every time I do my make up these past few months. I find that if used alone, it does nothing to my brows…the color is not at all visible. But if you use it combined with a brow pencil or brow shadow it helps make the brows look more natural, and “kept together”. I wouldn’t say it is a must product, but it does help a little, and it’s inexpensive. I have the darker color available, “02 browny brows” if anyone’s interested. I’m still undecided though on whether or not I’ll repurchase it when it’s finished. I’ll keep you posted.

Byphasse cleansing milk & toning lotion review
I’ve been using these 2 products for a couple of months now and I can honestly say I love them! They’re super cheap; each around 3-4 euros and they both contain 500ml of product, which for me is a bargain. And they’re pretty good too! The cleansing milk is really soft on the skin, and you only need one pump to clean your whole face, and it also works as a makeup remover and a very gentle one too. The toning lotion has an amazing but discreet scent, it leaves the skin toned and hydrated, and contains rose water. If you’re using this toning lotion around the eyes, be careful of the amount of product you use. They can get irritated by it if you use it in large quantities. But I honestly believe they’re both amazing products, and total value for money ones! Well done Byphasse! Have you used any products from this brand?

Catrice Liquid Camouflage high coverage concealer review
I got this concealer from Catrice 2-3 months ago, because I’ve heard so many people praise it online, and I really wanted to try it out myself, since I was looking for a new one. It’s really inexpensive too, so I didn’t hesitate at all buying it. I got the 020 Light Beige shade, because I found the 010 to be too light, and I started using it the very same day. I’m very impressed with it, because it indeed gives a high coverage, while lighting the area at the same. It’s quite thick, and has a nice applicator, covers my dark circles perfectly, doesn’t stay in the fine lines, and it’s quite durable, since it’s also waterproof. My only concern is that it seems to be running low already, but with a price like this, that’s not an issue for me. Have you tried it?

CND Vinylux nail polish review
I recently tried the CND Vinylux nail polishes from the flirtation collection, and more specifically “be demure”, the pink color on the left, and I was impressed. They say it’s a weekly polish, which can stay on your nails for 7 days, and it’s absolutely true. Now, I have to mention that almost all nail polishes tend to stay on my nails for days unharmed, because I have a dry base, which is good for nail polish. But this manicure has been on my nails for 2+ weeks now, and my nails look almost like their first day. Of course there’s growth, but apart from that, they’re completely unchipped. Totally recommend them!
