DIY: Mixing nail polishes

This was just a trial. But I am really happy with the result. I watch a lot of yt-vids and discovered a very nice nail polish color named "I'm Suzi & I'm a Chocoholic" by OPI's Swiss Collection. It is a brownish-red and a beautiful fall color! 


Actually I started doing a research at ebay.com in order to buy it. But then I thought of mixing it by myself. I took a plastic bag and started to mix Essie's "A-List" with p2 Cosmetic's "Rich and Royal".


I am so satisfied the result! I really like the color very very much!


Balea Handlotion & p2 cosmetics LE "Meet me at 12:30" Lipstick

I have found a new handlotion by Balea at DM. It smells of vanilla and sheabutter. It softens the skin and spends so much moisture. I like the handy packaging (330 ml). One pump and you get enough product.

So sad that it is just a limited edition! I have to buy an extra one for my desk at office, so I can use it there.


Actually I wanted to stop buying drugstore lipsticks, but I couldn't leave DM without buying this color of the p2 Cosmetics limited edition "Meet me at 12:30". It's a great nude color for darker skinned - fantastic brown.

Vacation in Turkey

We were on vacation in Turkey. It was so damn relaxing. We had a load of fun for 11 days. As opposite to the weather in Germany it was wonderful. The sun was always shining, we had around 30 °C.

One day we took a Turkish Bath (Hamam). It was so good, we felt very clean and fresh after sauna, total body scrub/foam massage, facial treatment and total body massage with almond oil. It was a good experience.

Shopping in Turkey is "okay". I didn't buy so many things there. Just a few clothes...that's all. Strange for me, but I wasn't interested in buying makeup there. I have often seen the brand flormar which is also available in Germany.

Here are a few impressions of our vacation.

Lil' Drugstore dm Haul

Here I am with a tiny drugstore haul. I went to dm (a German drugstore) and bought just a few things:


Blend-a-med - 3D-White / 1,75 €
I have read so many good reviews about this toothpaste. It promises whiter teeth in 2 weeks. Actually I don't believe in this but anyway I will give it a try.

Garnier - Pure A Daily Treatment Moisturiser / Garnier Hautklar A Tägliche Feuchtigkeitspflege / 3,95 €
My day cream is nearly used up and now I wanted to try out a new one. Because I have been using the same cream for four years now. Although I am satisfied with my current day cream, I think it's good for my skin to get a change.

I will make a post about my current skin care routine soon.


P2 - Define your lip line! lip liner / 2,25 €
P2 is dm's own cosmetic brand. This lipliner is transparent. I love it. Now I don't need to look for the matching lipliner for my lipsticks. 


Have you used a transparent lipliner before?



Kneipp Bath Crystals / Kneipp Badekristalle Balance Fuer Mich / 0,65 €
It's getting colder in Germany. At this time I love taking hot baths. There is nothing more relaxing. This is a bath essence scented in lotus, jasmine, orchid and rice seed oil. Can't wait to have a bath.

Shoe Haul

First of all I have to show you these pair of heels. I got them from my friend. She can't wear them, because she is pregnant. I like them very much.


I bought two new pairs of shoes recently. They are kind of ballerina pumps.

 

They look really simple like you can see. I am going to wear them at work.
