Bourjois makeup remover + a freebie mascara

Di has a special deal on Bourjois products, if you buy any two, you will get a Bourjois mascara for free. I was out of a waterproof makeup remover and I was always happy with the two-phase ones, so I stocked up .-). The mascara has a waterproof formula, enriched with kohl. Liner effect, 10 ml. It claims to give you a doe-eyed look...(how romantic :-))))

 

As you can see in the picture above, the wand is plastic, slightly thicker on one side. If you are not a fan, this one will not make you a convert. However, it is a nice freebie and it will come in handy in the rainy weather or snow...

BB cream for your hair

Flipping through Flipboard :-), I saw a most curious thing - a BB cream for your hair. Pantene Pro-V Ultimate 10 BB Crème. It promises heat protection and frizz control, reparative conditioning to rough hair, building strength and shine. If it ever reaches Europe, I will try it out, but at the moment I am in love with my Body Shop oil for hair.

A mini-haul

Walking past the 30 % discounted Bourjois resulted in me getting four new shades of the contour clubbing waterproof pencils, as I am mega happy with the first one I got, 45 blue remix.
The shades I got are: 42 gris techtalk (dark silver grey, with sparkles), 49 crazy about brown (warm golden-toned brown), 50 loving green and 47 purple night. Eyelure lashet for 3,50, on 50 % sale at Inno and my favourite mascara, by Catrice, lashes to kill, buy one get one free, 4 EUR in totol (what a deal!).

 

 

La Roche-Posay Cicaplast and Avene TriXera+

As my skin started to flake a lot in the cold weather of the past week, I decided to get La Roche Posay Cicaplast - Pro-recovery skincare for flaking, chappen skin and post cosmetic peels. (which comes in handy in case I overdo it with AHA and BHA exfoliation). 40 ml, it costs cca 10 EUR.
I also ran out of Avene Trixera, it was 30 % off, so that made the decision even faster ;-). 400 ml, 15 EUR

Naked Flushed palette

Riding the wave of the original Naked palette, Urban Decay launched yet another product associated with the franchise - a Flushed palette, which features a highlighter, a blush and a bronzer. 30 USD. More Naked makeup availble at http://www.urbandecay.com/Naked-Makeup/14,default,sc.html

La Roche Posay Derm AOX

As I now tend to focus more on skin care, I decided to get La Roche Posay Derm AOX, because it promised to give my skin this beautiful radiance. And I am not sure if it is really just my imagination, or this products works wonders on my skin (but you know, sufficient sleep helps a lot, too :-)). I got it via a friend for approx 20 EURO, I have not seen it being sold in Belgium.
Official info states:
"DERM AOX Serum combines anti-glycation Carnosine with a Pycnogenol®-based antioxidant complex. Carnosine, a medically-studied anti-glycation molecule, acts as a trap for the glucose molecules responsible for the glycation of dermal proteins, limiting the rigidification of collagen fibres and elastin. Pycnogenol®, a powerful antioxidant that traps free radicals, is combined with two other leading antioxidants, Vitamin C and Vitamin E, to neutralise free radicals before they attack the cells. Every day, the skin is more radiant, wrinkles are visibly diminished."

The serum is brown, and I only use it at night as it does not seem to dry quickly enough before foundation is applied.
