• GlamGlow Cleansers

    By Frieda Sunday, June 28, 2015 0 , , Permalink 0

    The Glam Glow Cleansers were on my wishlist for a while and are now finally available in The Netherlands. I'm a huge fan of the American brand GlamGlow, their masks are really fantastic and that's why I'm so curious about their new "mud to foam" facial cleansers they released in four variants. GlamGlow is a brand that actually focuses only on masks, but since they had so many requests for a product that you can use every day they come on the market with these cleansers. The cleansers all match with one of their masks and are gentle enough for ...

  • Lady Speed Stick and Secret Deodorant

    Quite honestly, I don't like deodorants for women at all, there's s often an irritating and dominant scent in it that's making things worse. Fragrance-free deodorants are better, but once I use a particular deodorant for a while a notice that after a while it no longer works so well, as a last resort I use the deodorant of my hubby but that's not ideal either. Since I've read many positive reviews about the deodorants of the American brands Lady Speed Stick and Secret I couldn't (as a huge America fan) stay behind to try these deodorants. Every year I come to America but ...

  • Korres Wild Rose Sleeping Facial

    By Frieda Saturday, June 13, 2015 0 , , Permalink 0

    Night care, unlike a day cream, I can't do without a good night cream. During the day I sometimes skip a day cream (not good I know) but I always use a good primer and preferably a foundation with SPF in it, but with night cream I'm always very loyal and I think it really does make a world of difference the next morning. Since recently I use a night cream of the Greek brand Korres. This brand uses 95% natural ingredients and tries to replace synthetic cosmetic ingredients as much as possible by natural ingredients. Korres doesn't test on animals and their packaging ...

  • Green Smoothie With Turmeric

    This is possibly the healthiest smoothie ever! This green smoothie is packed with good nutrition and also tastes deliciously fresh, in particular the addition of Turmeric makes this smoothie a true health bomb. This yellow wonder herb, which is often used in the Asian cuisine, has a mild bitter taste and a strong healing effect where I wrote a a blogpost about a while ago. How do you make this green smoothie with Turmeric? Ingredients. 1 tl Turmeric 1 Banana 1 Apple Lemon juice 2 cm Ginger 1/2 Cucumber Handful Spinach Amount of water Before you start it's good to know that Turmeric is poorly absorbed by the body, you fix this by mixing ...

    Since the latest foundation by Nars, All Day Luminous Weightless I've tested this foundation and it's so nice that I continue to use it. Nars is obviously a fantastic brand and they are particularly strong in blush and highlighter, I'd never actually tried a powder from Nars and since I completely emptied my MAC Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder I decided to try the Nars Soft Velvet Loose Powder. Nars Soft Velvet Loose Powder. Nars Always has beautiful sleek packaging. This powder comes in a round jar with the familiar matte black cap from Nars. This matte black Nars always use is beautiful but unfortunately also attracts a lot ...

    I'm a big fan of lip gloss and lip care by Clarins, beautiful colors that also take care of your lips at the same time. Clarins has something new right now, a lip oil, this nourishing lip oil is available in two variants, 01 Honey and 02 Raspberry, 01 Honey doesn't give any color on the lips, only a beautiful gloss, o1 Raspberry gives a touch of red on the lips and I'v tested this one. Clarins Instant Light Lip Comfort Oil. The caring lip oil 01 Raspberry has a sweet smell, comes in a beautiful glass jar with gold colored cap and has a volume of ...

    Gel nail polish is totally hot at the moment and rightly so because gel nail polish is sitting pretty much longer than normal nail polish. A couple of years ago gel nail polish entered the market as a complete set with a primer, base coat, nail polish, top coat in it and an UV lamp or a LED lamp so that the gel nail polish can dry and harden, Also budget brand Essence has such a kit for at home.
