My Palace of Beauty

Okay that's probably a bit of an overstatement, but I love my "beauty area" and I wanted to share it with you. Get ready.

Basically everything is from Ikea, our whole house's interior is from Ikea. *gg* On the right side, next to our TV is my shelf - I already changed it a bit, but just to give you an idea:


I own one Alex drawer full of beauty stuff, it's actually too full by now. *g*


On top of it I have the best lipglass organizer ever (I bought it on ebay years ago) and my jewellery trees.


I apply my make up on my Malm table in front of our bedroom window which gives me the best light ever. 



In another room is my beauty stuff shelf where I store all the items I bought over the years ready to be used


If you wanna see my make up collection let me know. *gg*

Love,
Valerie

GOSH Forever Eyeshadow Pencils

I love walking through my favourite BIPA store looking for new products, I have to admit I do that more than once a week. *gg*

I'm always excited to see something new from GOSH. GOSH reminds me of the UK and I miss it so much. Their latest addition are eyeshadow pencils, let's take a look:



Of course I swatched all of them. :)


Grey, Beige, Silver Rose, Copper, Lila, Brown, Green, Blue


Grey, Beige, Silver Rose, Copper


Lila, Brown, Green, Blue


They were smooth and with the exception of "Lila" all the shadowstick were insanely pigmented. :) They lasted really well, even as I tried to remove it. *g*

Since one of those babies costs 9,90€ I didn't get one, therefore I can't say how long they last on the lids. Gosh how I hate being broke. Get it? Gosh.. ;)

Did you see them? Might even bought some??

Love,

Bi Good by Bipa


A few days ago BIPA invited to the release of their new beauty range called "Bi Good". A vegan and natural product palette consisting of 41 products, from tooth paste to body oil. Let's take a look at the beautiful venue and the products..










 The products have been awarded with the Veganblume and are NaTrue certified. To top it off, all the products are made in Austria and are of high quality. I gotta say I was really impressed!

They use local ingredients such as lemon balm, mint, plum, red poppies or alpine herbs. The event itself was a pleasure as well, after a short presentation we were able to try the products and create our own beauty oil, sadly I completely failed. *gg*









It was a gorgeous evening and I'm already a fan. I wish the packaging would be fancier to attract more attention. I'm afraid it might look a bit "too" natural and alternative for some people.

I'll review some products soon and there'll also be a giveaway. :)

They will be released on the first September, but they were already available at my Bipa. I couldn't resist buying something, especially regarding the fact that all the items are super affordable. :)

Have a great night.

Love,
Guinevere

MAC's LE Craziness in September

We all know MAC sometimes burries us with limited editions and September is going to be of those times.. It's hard to keep up by now, so I though I'll give you an overview. :-) Get ready!

The one I'm most excited about is the Marge Simpson Collection:


I NEED one of the blushes and the green eyeshadow palette. My poor bank account..

The next LE that will hit our stores in September is the "A Novel Romance" collection. A huuuuge LE with the cheesiest promo pictures I've ever seen. *g* It's one of those collections where everyone finds something.








If you thought we're done for September, you're wrong. Artificially Wild, a LE full of wearable nude colours, comes next.





There will also be  new Viva Glam Rihanna lipstick..

Last, but not least there will be a new mascara. The Mineralize Lash:





Puh.. What a month!!!

I'm gonna keep you updated, if there will be something else. Let's hope they will wait a little bit and give us a chance to recover.

Love,
Guinevere
