.



OMG! I love this bag. It's casual enough to pair it with jeans for a trip to the mall and is formal enough for me to use it at university or at work.

It also is big enough to fit in a big towel! lol. I use this bag whenever am in a hurry to go to my university and i don't have time to put on my entire makeup so I'll put in my makeup kit or whenever I'll be planning to go to a fancy place and i know i will not have time to go back home so I'll put in a change of clothes plus everything i need.

Check it out the price (in kuwaiti dinar - KD) its a catch




Luckily i found a wallet that matches my bag exactly in color & material from H&M accessories (25% sales in H&M is already over from last Saturday but at the moment they are having new offers ranging from 1 - 4 KD on selected items and buy 2 get 1 free on selected accessories & other items)

Review: EVA GARDEN by Paolo Guatelli "Finishing touch" Loose Powder



Unlike MAC's Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder (21$ sold in kuwait for 9 KD- 8 G/0.28 OZ) & Make Up Forever Microfinish Powder (30 $ - 10 G/0.35 OZ) , that are both pure white color in color but goes on colorless ,




EVA GARDEN by Paolo Guatelli "Finishing touch" Loose Powder (Sold in kuwait for 6.720 KD ~ 23.40 $ - 30 G/1.05 OZ) is bright Peige/pinkish in color but surprisingly goes on colorless leaving your skin with a natural glow and inside comes with its own puff thus helps block the powder from going all over the place.




It is used to finish and set makeup as well as eliminate any oil or sweat , although i don't recommend to build up so many layers of powder.




"Final Touch" Loose Powder




Impalpable powder, transparent and non-occlusive on the skin due to the micronized raw material. If applied over the foundation it fixes the make up for a long lasting wear and gives the face a velvety appearance. To be used directly on the skin before the bronzer powder allowing in this way a natural and uniform effect.

Not tested on animals



Ingredients:
talc, phenil, trimethicone, dimethicene, isostearyl, neopentanoate, petrolatum, methylparaben, polybutene, propylparaben, dehydracetic acid, butylparaben, bht. +/- May contain titanium dioxide (Cl 77891) iron oxides(Cl 77499) ultramarine blu (Cl 77007).




I really recommend this product.

Review: Neutrogena Visibly Clear Blackhead Elimination Daily Scrub

Since i have a combination of sensitive, dry & oily skin (only oily around my t-zone area) so my skin tend to have blackheads appearing around my nose alot. It really stands out especially when you have fair skin like mine, that's why i need a good face scrub and this product was recommended for me by a skin specialist although it is pricey for a 150 ml face scrub (3.080 KD) but i decided to try it out.


It has an odd smell kinda orangy, thin consistency, with a different size mix of granules (Ranges from fine granules, that you can barely see them, to granules size big as the one shown below) so its really griddy.




have different and it feels ruff it claims to :

  • Help remove blackheads

  • Help prevent blackheads

  • Be suitable for everyday use

by just washing your face with warm water then gently massaging the product over your face especially around area's with blackheads & finally rinsing your face thoroughly afterwords. But it also mention to :


  • Discontinue if irritation develops after using the product

  • Ingredients: Aqua, Cetyl Alcohol, Ppg-15 Stearyl Ether, Polyethylene, Polysorbate 60, Salicylic Acid, Steareth-21, Jojoba Esters, Potassium Cetyl Phosphate, Xanthan Gum, Agar, Neopentyl Glycol Dicaprylate / Dicaprate, Menthyl Lactate, Bht, Parfum, Mica, Titanium Dioxide, Cl 77491, Cl 15850

putting that in mind i carefully used the product on my face, it felt really ruff on my face even when am carefully massaging it on my face, & it actually made my skin even worse causing my skin to have breakouts around my nose and my forehead after using it only once.

My younger sister have acne pron skin (oily skin) experienced the same thing with the product also causing her skin to have breakouts around her cheeks.


I don't recommend this product at all because its such very ruff face scrub & its a waste of money but i heard there are some people who didn't face any problems so i guess if you want to test it on your skin i would say to use a sample of the product before actually buying it.
