L'Oreal Mythic Oil

Continuing the latest obsession with oils, my sister highly recommends L'Oreal's (professional) mythic oil to nourish your hair. Retail price 15 EUR, available via the Internet.

Enriched with a special blend of avocado and grape seed oil, this lightweight oil cares and pampers all hair types. Nourishing even the finest hair, the formula leaves hair looking shiny, feeling nourished and supple.

Nashi argan - for hair

The benefits of argan oil are widely known and heavily promoted (just pop in to your local Di store and you will what I mean) so it will not come as a surprise that I decided to try its beautifying properties on myself :-). I got Nashi argan hydrating hair mask at the hairdresser's but there are plenty of products with argan oil available all around so feel free to share your experience, recommendations. Yes, it is amazing, it soften the hair, making it shinier...you know the rest ;-). I have been buying sweet almond oil, castor oil, coconut oil so argan oil is just the next logical step ;-).

 

Caudalie - deep cleansing exfoliator

It was due to lack of time that I bought this gem: Caudalie peeling for skin, having run out of my usual product. The brand Caudalie was not on my beauty radar but I am a huge fan. It is not cheap (19 EUR) and is only available in pharmacies, but if you have oily skin and are looking for an excellent physical exfoliant, do try this. All is based on the benefits of wine and grapes, with roots in Bordeaux. I use it more often than the recommended 1-2 a week, but my skin can take it. Love.

Naked 2 palette

Probably I am the last person on the planet to get Naked 2 palette, but let me tell you that it is amazing, an excellent choice, if you have the first one, you will enjoy this one all the more. I love combining the shadows from the two palettes. I got it from France, Sephora, 40,50 EUR via a friend, otherwise 45 EUR. I believe Ryanair sells these for 35 EUR.
As this palette has been described and reviewed ad nauseum, I still stick to the pictures only ;-)

 

M.A.C makeup - part two

After having been made-up by the M.A.C makeup artist, I decided to buy Studio Fix concealer in NC 15 (rather thick, excellent coverage), an eyeshadow club satin and an eyebrow pencil strawberry blond. I paid around 50 Euro for all three.

NAKED palette after two years

In two years, I hit the pan on the following shades: virgin, naked, sidecar, half baked, smog, dark horse, hustle, gunmental. 8 out of 11, not too bad ;-) I am currently really into getting NAKED 2, Ryanair, here I come ;-)

 

Nail crisis

My nails are unfailingly lettting me know that they are not happy, so, I decided to try to beef them up both on the inside and  the outside. Here is the current status and the attempted combat plan:
