Gosh - Galaxy

Hello lovelies, having a nice Monday??

I have one of those where I could sleep all day. Sadly, work and Uni don't care. *gg*

I've seen this nail polish and swatches on several british blogs and knew I had to buy it. It's sooo pretty. Let's take a look:




Not just plain black and gold, no, you have purple and blue particles too. 

The "only" bad thing is the time it takes to dry. It had approximately 40 minutes, cause I had to work on my laptop and I still ended up having little smudges after touching fabric etc. Really annoying! For a polish which costs almost 10€ one could expect more. It's limited edition, so if you like it, better grab it quick. 

It is definitely a beautiful nail polish and every person has different nails, but keep in mind that it might need ages to dry. 

Love,
Guinevere

Lush Event "Fun"

A few days ago Lush invited to a kneading party at their store on Mariahilferstraße. :-)

It was about a new multipurpose product called "Fun". It's a knead that you can use for showering, bathing and even washing your hair!



Talk about developing something really cool. This is the dream for every family with kids. They come in five different colours and scents. All of them are vegan:





Now let's see some photos of the event and what we kneaded. 










Looks like fun, right? It was. *gg* As soon as you get the product a little wet you can form everything you want. 

Unfortunately, I truly suck at such thing, so I ended up just using the two forms which were available. Truly creative..


It was a great event and the product is definitely fun. In Austria, it costs 9,95€, but you only need tiny amounts of product. Just peel off a little and start your party. 

This is a great christmas present for kids and those of you who just love to have fun like a child again. :-) I'll use it later today after working out. Relly curious how my star will perform. :-)

Love,
Guinevere

essie - snap happy

This is the swatch from the other lovely Essie polish I got, I wish I had better nails and prettier looking cuticles, but I just don't. So we'll have to deal with that. :-)


A lovely red which is perfect for the holidays. Nothing unique, but a colour you can never go wrong with.

Love,
Guinevere

Drugstore LE's in November

November is full of awesome limited editions. I haven't spent that "much" on drugstore items in a long time.  What a bad, bad girl.. Let's go through them:

Essence - Home Sweet Home


b2 - Red Vamp Edition


Gosh Sets


I bought items of all the Catrice & Essence collections and as you can see in the blog post below also from the Bipa one. Of three I already posted about, just click on the links, the others will follow in the next couple of days.

Have a wishlist?

Look By Bipa "Magical Skin LE"

At the moment, there are so many amazing drugstore limited editions released, it's crazy.. I'm gonna do a post about it next.

One of them is definitely from Look by Bipa:


There are three face powders (left side) and two blushes, a rose and a peach one. And look at the shape they gave the products!! You can use them wet and dry, which might be handy for the powder :-).

I got the peach blush, cause the rosa one looked really plain. 

It's named "Peachy Pearl" and looks soo cool.




It took me quite some overcoming to use it for swatches:


It's sheer, but buildable. This swatch above is three layers. 

It's such an amazing item, I mean simply the look of that blush makes it worth buying. At least, for me. *g* That it works nicely is a good benefit too. ;-)

They cost 3,99€ for those of you who are interested.

Love,
Guinevere
