China Glaze, I love you so.

Crackles have been so big during the last year and I must say, I really like them. Though I am over the honeymoon phase and I have started nit-picking. Allow me to be more specific- I like crackle, I’m just over the black crackle.

And when a shop assistant at a local hair salon told me they will receive crackle/shatter polishes and told me they’ll be receiving black ones, I was really disappointed. Pretty much every bigger nail polish brand has got a crackle polish. Hell, they are even available in Pärnu and from several brands as well.

I need GOLDEN crackles. Not golden under black shatter, golden scatter!!

And of course I have googled my arse off to find one that was golden and available in Estonia. And I have not found a thing.

They do have a great one at Boots by 17.

And Sally Hansen has one as well.

I’m pretty sure there are more brands that have golden crackles but the one from 17 was the first one I discovered and craved and I discovered the Sally Hansen one yesterday. There’s even a slight possibility that the Sally Hansen ones might become available in Estonia at some point.

But there is hope still as I found out that China Glaze released their metal crackle collection.

Two words: I WANNA! Wanna might not be a word for grammar freaks but it is a word in my book.

I would really-really-really like to own the light blue one called Oxidized Aqua and the golden one (duh!) called Tarnished Gold.

Another things I would sell my soul for (yes, my soul is that cheap, give me a ring if you are interested).

Stay amazing, girlies!

XO, Janne.

Make Up Destinations: USA 1.1 Drugstore

Among other things I will post about make up destinations for a couple of weeks. I will show you guys why I’m dying to go there and what I would get.

As you noticed from the headline, the first part will be the US. I made this as the first part because it’s just so obvious and maybe you’ll be guessing what’s gonna be next!

And I’m gonna start with the most obvious brand as well.

CoverGirl

The most accessible and well-priced brand in the US. Every time I watch ANTM  and they are promoting CoverGirls easy, breezy make up, I get really frustrated for not being able to purchase them!! And in this case I don’t have any specific products that I would def want to get, I wanna try EVERYTHING!

 

And another iconic US drugstore brand

 

Revlon

We have had Revlon products in Estonia, but that was ages ago. Every beauty guru owns Revlon lipsticks and the reviews I’ve heard about the PhotoReady Foundation! I haven’t literally read any bad reviews about this product. They even compare this with Make Up For Ever High Definition Foundation. I would def try this one.

 

Next- we have this in Estonia, but we don’t have enough!

Sally Hansen

We do have a lot of Sally Hansen, I’ve even seen a couple of lipglosses, but there’s a lot more!! Starting with amazing lipsticks to eyeshadows, Sally Hansen has it all and we’ve never seen them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Are some Estonians at least a bit surprised?

And last but def not least, my fav drugstore brand ever.

Sonia Kashuk

AMAZING!!!!! Sonia Kashuk has affordable, but extremely good quality brushes that I have wet dreams of (well I would if  I were a guy..) And SK also has palettes, amazing palettes and her nailpolishes just came out! And an extremely awsome golden highlighter. And here they are..

Aren’t the handles just fabulous??

Drooool…

The palette, highlighter and marble effect brush  you can see are from Sonia’s Spring 2011 collection.

And lastly I torture myself by checking out stuff from SEPHORA, I dare you to click on the link. You’ll want to order everything, but won’t be able to (atlest when you live in Estonia, otherwise I envy you).

Next part coming up soon, can you guess what will be featured?

March wishlist and nails

It's weird how fast time flies. It feels like I just wrote the review for the Rimmel foundation but it has been a month already..
So I'm gonna post my current wishlist.
1) Manhattan Clearface Fruit Scrub- I had a mini version of this, don't really remember how it worked, but I kind of have a feeling that I should puchase this, haha. I am hoping that it clears out some of the comedones on my nose and it seems only logical that it gets deeper into the pores than regular scrubs.
2) Something from Arnaud, their products have been very tempting. And as I'm running low on facial toner, I'm thinking about buying one for oily skin. Though the Sebamed one I have right now is quite good, it seemed to help at first, but sadly I'm breaking out for over a week right now and I'm freaking out about it.
3) Manhattan Mat Lipcream Lipgloss or some other matte nude-ish lipgloss or lipstick. I don't wear lipglosses or sth like that normally, but I'm thinking about changing that. Though lip stains may be even better, as I am not interested in reapplying every 2 hours or so..
4) Goldwell Dualsense shampoo for sensitive scalp or Cutrin Bio+ Active Shampoo with Cutrin Bio+ Active Serum. The serum is leave in and you can even apply it on dry scalp. I'm constantly having issues with my scalp, no shampoo has been working for me lately and the shampoos that did like 3 months ago, don't anymore. It's really annoying and getting hold of a new shampoo that works is really costly. I mean the last shampoo that worked for me was like 1,25€, super cheap.

And now for the nails. It's a really cool colour. I love that it's not flashy and bright but at the same time it has attitude. And the Teeez! nail varnish in Sexy 03, lasts quite long. I also wear Artdeco Nail Wonder as a base and on top of it, but it lasts for like 4 days or so. The first application wasn't that great as it kind of got bubbly on my nails for several times, I must have shaked it too much. And it has a thick consistency so you must be swift. It cost 5,05€, if I recall correctly. It's available in Rosalind in Estonia and there are some 20? shades to choose from. There was this cute ruby with fine glitter and a really nude colour as well, I think those were the only ones that really stood out from the rest of the bunch.
