Hello There!

Today Im going to review the Rosy VoxBox from Influenster which I got for testing and for free. If you're interested in getting some boxes you can register on influenster as well - > Referral link to Influenster

Lets begin the review.
Here's how the box looks like when I just got it. Its pretty small and lightweight.

Inside the box I found two Vera Wang fragrances, Not Your Mothers Beach babe salt spray, Purell  Advanced Hand Sanitizer Naturals,  Fancy Feet® Ball of Foot Cushions By Foot Petals, Secret® Clinical Strength Invisible Solid Completely Clean.

I will begin with Vera Wang Embrace Marigold & Gardenia which I absolutely adore. Its soft, nice, floral and fruity at the same time. Wonderfull mix of scents. Spring is in it. Checkout in stores if you can and fall in love.

The other one is not that nice as I dont really like roses and its scent. It reminds me of granny fragrances to be honest. It says that the aroma contains citrus, roses and vanilla but the scent itself is more roses than anything. Not the best for me.

Next item is NYM Beach Babe Spray. I love Not Your Mothers. Their scents, products, design. Pretty much everything. I have a full size of Beach Babe Salt Spray in Coconut and its an amazing thing. It creates small waves like you got out the water on sunny day at the beach. It also can lighten up your hair in sunny days which is a plus for blondes like me. The product I got smells like tropical coctail and its really awesome travel size bottle of spray. Love it!

Next stop - Purell hand sanitizer. I love that stuff if Im on the go. It allows to feel your hands kind of clean and it also smells good after some time when alcohol in it evaporates. So its definitely a win win situation. Might feel too strong for first moments but becomes nice lately.


Another item in a list - Secret® Clinical Strength Invisible Solid Completely Clean. Its a solid deodorant. Without alcohol. I dont really wear such solid deodorants as I prefer liquid forms. This one smells good, doesnt leave huge white marks though if you apply it before you put on clothes it leaves white strikes like any other solid white deodorant.


Last thing in a box is  Fancy Feet® Ball of Foot Cushions By Foot Petals. I dont wear heels and cannot actually review this thing but its so soft and gentle and I like its name, its really a petal for your feet. I wont mind to try them with my sport shoes which are New Balance Classics 574 but I honestly think its a waste of product so Id better give it to my friend who loves heels xD
That's it for the box. See you in next one. Hope it will be soon ^_^

Hello my dear friend. I don't know who you are guys but I still think we're kind of friends anyways.
Todaaaaay I'm talking about the another Influenster box which came to me not long ago.
For those who wonder - influenster is a specific network which can help a new blogger get some stuff for reviews for free.
This particular box is a small one with few interesting things in it.

Its all samples in a box except for MaxFactor things and yes you get it for free for testing purposes.


First thing that I've noticed was mascara. Who doesnt love new mascara? Its MaxFactor Masterpiece.

Really nice wand and formula, separates lashes and you will need couple of coats to get intense black nice lashes. I like this thing as much as my favorite MaxFactor 2000 calories which is an absolute brilliant thing. I have sensitive eyes and this mascara doesnt make them itchy or dry or watery, it just works the way it supposed to.

Next little thingy is an eyeliner. Same MaxFactor Masterpiece eyeliner in black. Interesting felt tip though I don't like marker kind of eyeliners as they dry out so quickly its just ugh!
Anyways the eyeliner as really intense and nice, with fine formula. Its just not my type of an eyeliner.

Going further into the box. Nail polish from Seche Vite. I adore their fast dry top coat but but but its not for natural nails. Amazing top for gel or acrylic nails and when applied to natural it ripped off in about a day or two. The colored nail polish however is nice. Pretty peachy-orange color for summer days so its totally fine. The box should have contained a third thing but its missing for some reason as color has number two and top coat is number three so what is number one in a kit?

Next stop is the hair care. Not your Mother's way to grow leave in conditioner. You know what? I already own few products from Not your mother's and its just love love love. Amazing things of all kinds. This conditioner smells just like heaven and does its job as supposed to.



Another one. Iron Tek essential protein. I'm a gym lover for three years already and I tasted lots of protein powders during this period. And I know that one standard portion is 30 grams of protein powder where you get 24-25 grams of pure protein per serving. So this little portion is actually a half serving with its 12 gr size. Not too bad in taste. Chocolate is always the most fine one. But do you think someone can tell if its fine protein or not by checking 12 gr serving at once and thats it? You cannot tell if its ok in nutrition and as a supplement in total for you. So its just a waste of a sample in my opinion.
Tea! For those who like I am a tea loving person. I prefer rich black tea but these green and herbal tea bags were great. Earthy tastes and fine scent. Relaxation has been achieved. I've got Jasmine green which smells amazing, Pu Erh Cardamom tea with strong cardamom smell and taste and Turmeric Three Roots tea which is the most elf like tea which you can imagine drinking in a forest among little fantasy creatures. I enjoyed this part of the box a lot.

After all this small box gave me autumn vibes except for nail polish summer color. This was a great way to celebrate September and talk a little in my blog. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I am.
Have a wonderful days, beauties!

Well. I guess its all for now. Thats the whole me I can remember at the moment %) I would love to know more about you, feel free to leave your blogs in comments and I will check out all of them for sure.

This is a quick tutorial for those who would like to become an elf but doesnt want to spend hours on making ears


Step 1: Prepare the ingredients and lets begin

For ears you will need:

1.stationery clips

2.liquid latex or gelatin

3.air dry clay

4.couple of qtips without one cotton side

5.plastic wrap just to leave your shapes on it while clay dries

6.stick/brush to put clips on while ears will be drying

8.some jar

9.cream/alcohol activated paints or just makeup

10.setting spray

11.baby powder or just powder


Step 2: The process of making ears.



Take the jar of a liquid latex though you can pour it right from the bottle into some cup.
Use stationary clip to hold the shape, dip it into a latex, wait till it stop dripping.
Take a long stick/brush and put one clip with an ear to its one end, then do the same with the second shape.
Put the stick with shapes onto some bottle so ears will hang from it without touching anything.
Wait till they dry completely. It wont take much time, about an hour or so.
Powder shapes from both sides, then carefully start taking them off from the edges using powder. You can easily turn ears inside out but make sure all the surface is powdered properly.

And here you have it. You brand new ears.
Which you can color to match your skintone and apply with adhesive like spirit gum or pros aid or even same liquid latex. Use scissors to trim ears to desired shape and if you'd trim too much you can always create a new pair of ears.

Thanks for reading and/or watching.

Hello weirdos!

Now thats the word I wanna call people who read me or follow me or any other activities around me. Cause when you have your weirdo pride you can be powerful.

So the small package came to me not long ago and it was complimentary for testing purposes from influenster. It sent me a mini version of Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs.


And yep, I've tried this stuff, thats why I write it here %)
All girls like some new testers and mini version of products and things that come in mail. This little thing is not an exclusion.
Came with a coupon which I cannot use simply because I'm not in America and all the coupons for stores. Its in a shade light but...

 You already know I'm pale. In a winter I'm like a white rabbit  and cannot be identified in a snow.
So the Sally Hansen airbrush legs is definitely not for pale people like me, at least at first. Cause when you apply this on any area of your skin, you will become beige-orange immediately.

Hopefully it fades with the time. I wont recommend to apply any tanning lotion like this before going out. Its pretty strong but when it fades, which happens in about 3-4 hours, you wont look like you've applied any tan at all.


Of course its up to you to decide to buy it or not but after all in my opinion its just a waste of money. I prefer gradual tanning lotions which give you nice color with the time and you can control the intensity.
My current favorite is Gosh Gradual Tan light/medium. Its perfect for pale skin, you can build the tanning effect, it doesnt wash away after the first shower and it doesnt stain your clothes. The price is nice too and I've been using it for 2 summers already.
If you have any tanning lotion that you absolutely love please leave a comment below and I will try to find and check it out!

Hi hi hi hi hi hi!
Missed you! Its a bit tricky to post things at the moment but I will do my best to get back to proper posts.

In today's post I'm going over my impression on BH cosmetics haul.


I really like this makeup brand as its pretty cheap yet still very good quality.

For those of you who prefer videos - here's the video review I've made.



For text lovers like me:
Lets begin with Makeup by Mandy 24 palette which was going to be my everyday palette but didnt really work as I was expecting.
The one you see second on the second row is not really brown, its blackish-brown with golden shimmer, not really pretty in my opinion. I like top two shades which are light and have shimmer in it, they are great for inner corner when you need to add a highlight and the last one in upper row is matte yellow-light ivory. None of them can really be used on the lid if you want something calm. Brown colors are way too warm for pale skin and black one is out of review as its just nice black color and thats all about it. I dont think its useful palette for pale girls and I wont be using it much, might be 2-3 shades with some other colors and nothing more.
BH liquid liner is amazing, I got the other one in purple and love it. Might transfer on to the crease when its too hot but in other cases - just awesome.

Next palette is Wild Child which is baked eyeshadow in the most calm colors among this series.
The palette has 9 baked eyeshadow shades and its really awesome. The only one problem I found - most of them look way too similar on the lid. Anyways its really nice palette and I like to use it from time to time as it gives that smooth silky finish with a bit of sparkle.
