What I Got for Christmas (Part 1): Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara + Mini Eyeshadow Palette

Hi, everyone! I decided to do a mini-series of blog post reviews of the beauty items I got for Christmas this year. Hope you enjoy!

The first thing I got is the Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara. It came with a mini eyeshadow palette as a free gift. I guess that they launched this small set especially for Christmas but you may still be able to get it at some places where it didn't sell out.

I've been using the mascara for a couple of days already and I really enjoy it. It has a medium-sized, soft-bristle brush that is extremely easy to use. The wand is perfectly shaped for getting even the smallest outer lashes and giving them a really nice and lasting curl hence the name of the mascara "Iconic Overcurl". What I also love about this mascara is that it's very black and intense which makes the lashes look very voluminous. It, of course, holds a curl very well throughout the whole day. This mascara is not as lengthening as the ones I usually use but I don't mind that.

The mini eye-shadow palette is also lovely. It has 5 grey/blue colors. I think they will work great for both people with lighter and darker eyes. The lightest color and one of the grey colors are a little bit shimmery and the other three eyeshadows have satin finish. They are all highly pigmented and easy to blend.

That's it for Part 1 of What I Got for Christmas Series. Thanks, so much for reading, guys and Happy Holidays! <3

Product Review: Lush Snow Fairy Massage Bar

Hello, everyone! Two weeks ago I got the limited edition Snow Fairy massage bar from Lush and I decided to write a small post to tell you all about it.

If you don't know what a massage bar is, it basically looks like a soap but in fact it is like a body butter that you can use all over your body for deeply moisturising and conditioning your skin. It warms up when you take it in your hands and it melts easily on your skin. This one leaves a light pink residue on the skin when you first apply it but it quickly disappears once you rub it in with your hands. It is also slightly shimmery which is probably the main reason I got it because I thought that would be really cute for the holiday season.

Another great thing is that it smells super sweet like candy and bubblegum. The smell is quite strong and it stays on the skin all day but I don't mind that at all. I would recommend you to go the nearest Lush shop and give it a try if you like that kind of thing. Don't forget that you'll need some kind of plastic or metal box (they sell them in Lush as well) to store it because it easily melts in warm places.

Thanks for reading and Happy Holidays! :))
