NEXA Lite

Hey ladies, It's been a while since I posted my last review of a beauty product, so today I'm here to give you my opinion of an alternative to the expensive (I think so) Clarisonic, or mechanical brushes.

Last month I ordered this "beauty gadjet" 'cause in some one of my monthly favourites I showed you the Garnier exfo-brush, but the results of it only lasted for 1 or 2 days, so I thought I had to find a face brush, something like Clarisonic or a manual one. 

And some months ago I heard 'bout the NEXA, and I decided to search on the website to buy it. For my surprise they just released a new model that was exclusively for face, and it was discounted! And how not, I bought it here

Lightening your haircolour

Hey girls! I know it's been a while, but I'm here again with a new post. Lately I've been thinking about dying my hair again ( I dyed it red once ), but the dye left my hair pretty damaged and now that I've cut it and it looks more healthy I've reconsidered. And I thought about a product that was launched this summer. It lightens your hair colour but it doesn't damage your hair, because it's made with some natural products and without ammonia.

It's called Casting Sunkiss from L'Oreal. Maybe you heard of it but if you didn't, keep reading! This is not a promoted post or anything like this, I just wanna share this information with you and on the next post I'm going to test this product and tell you how it worked for me.


It costs 7€ aprox.

That's how it looks the packaging. As it says, the product is like a jelly, it's translucent and it's supposed to lighten your colour 3 tones in 3-5 applications. There are three versions of the product, one for blonds, one for brunettes and one for dark hair.

The application method is very easy: you just have to put it on the sections of hair ( or spread it all over the hair ) you want to lighten and then stay 20 minutes on the sun or just apply heat with a hairdryer. There's no need to rinse your hair after putting it.

Well, in summary it sounds really well, now the thing is if it works. I'll try to find it on my local stores and test it as soon as possible to make a review. We'll see on the next post!
Bye ♥

Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions Liquid Makeup

I realize that this is a really long title, but today's post is about this foundation, so let's start reviewing it! 

Last month I bought a BB Cream but I thought it was better buy a good foundation for long days or nights out. I decieded to buy this one a long time ago but it was quite expensive so I searched on the internet for better prices but I ended up buying it on a physical store to try on my skin the correct tone. They were making an special offer and it was 20% off, so I bought it ^^

*[If you're from Spain] The store where I bought it is called Druni, maybe the offer is still in store.


The original price is 32€ but with the discount is 26€



That's how it looks, the packaging is so sweet, and it has a really nice feel :3
Now the inside, it has a super nice coverage (I don't even have to put concealer) because is quite thick, so you have to extend it (I don't know if it's called like this...) really well on your face, I personaly recomend do it with a sponge or a flat foundation brush. It covers the rednesses and marks really well and my skin looks flawless, really, it feels like I'm not wearing makeup. Is oil-free, and has ingredients to control the grease levels of the skin, and I've noticed that, my skin is not shining as it normally does without makeup.

I personally apply moisturizer ( Garnier Pure Active ), and my new pore minimizer from The Body Shop ( Tea Tree pore minimizer ), I use it like a primer, and I think that this makes this foundation look even better... I'll use it during this month and I'll tell you if it really works, because is like a "treatment" to minimize the pores, instantly and long-term.


I was worried picking the tone, because it's the first Clinique product that I've bought, but I ended up choosing the right one, is so identical to my skin tone that I don't know if you're going to be able to appreciate it. I picked the -Fresh Neutral 03-.

It's easy to wipe off, it doesn't get my blemishes worse and my pores don't get full of the product, so is perfect! Btw, If you have mixt skin use a free-oil moisturizer before. 
I really like this product, It's since now my favourite foundation, the only drawback is that it doesn't extend easily, but I think that with a brush or sponge this problem is solved, at least in my case! 

I hope this post has helped you, and I'll see you very soon, now that holidays have begun! :D Bye!

Garnier BB Cream Pure Active

Hey! It's been a while since the last day I posted, but I have a lot of work and exams, so sorry!

Today I'm doing a review!
Yesterday I went shopping and as always I went to the cosmetic store, and all my foundations make me  pimples, so I saw this bb cream and I bought it (for 8.99€).



I was asking to the shop assistant if the tone of the BB cream was very dark, and she said that the BB adapts the colour of your skin, and I believed it. No, of course it doesn't adapt, at least this BB, (I bought the medium tone, there weren't any more tones) it's like a tone or two darker than my skin, but for my surprise the colour looks very natural, and beautiful.

I always searched my tone on foundations, but get a tone darker makes my skin look more alive, and prettier :3 

I only used it twice, but it's so easy and fast to apply that I'm gonna use it more frequently, because it's supposed to reduce your pores and is anti-spots and blackheads, at least my spots haven't got worse, like with other foundations. I know that this is not a foundation but it covers really nicely the rednesses, with a bit of concealer underneath it covers well the spots too.

It's true that your skin doesn't look shiny, and looks very natural and soft. It has SPF15 too, salicylic acid and mineral pigments. I really really liked this BB Cream, is good for acne, oily skin and this kind of skin problems, if you got several problems of acne ask to your doctor before! 



If you have a very light skin buy the light tone, when I went to the store they haven't got it but personaly I'll wait until they have the light one, because this is too dark for people with very pale skin. If you have a normal tone, not too light, like me, you can buy the normal one because it gives you a little bit of colour and looks very nice. At the beggining when I put it in my face I thought that it wasn't my tone (and it isn't), but when you finish your make up it looks really well :) But I'll better wear it in the summer.



I hope I'll help you with this review and I'll see you next week! Love you
