I also visited my dad and both grandmas last weekend with my mom and her bf. I also saw lots of other relatives there, so it was a very great trip, even though it was only two days and one night.

Oh btw I waxed my armpits and srsly girls, it is really not that bad if you're determined to do it! It doesn't really hurt that much as you could think. The results are totally worth it. Sleek as fuck.

Review: Nature Republic Sleeping Tonight Lavender Sleeping Pack

Heeeyoooo ! This time I'm reviewing Nature Republics Tonight Lavender Sleeping Pack. I bought it from Honest Skin for $4.06, you can check out my haul and review post here.

Untitled

Description: With delicate scent of lavender and the burst of water drops on the skin, it provides moisture and nutrition while sleeping by minimizing stickiness and oiliness and maximizing the moisturizing level to make fresh and moist skin in the next morning.

How to use: After cleansing face and using skin-toner in the evening, apply a suitable amount evenly on the face except the eye area and leave it while sleeping. Wash off lightly with water in the next morning.

Untitled 

Packaging: The product comes in a basic soft plastic tube. It is very easy to dispense the wanted amount and some may like it because it is hygienic. I don't care that much for the hygience matters, for I always use my products with clean hands.

Consistency: It has a cream-like consitency and it goes kind of watery when spread. That makes the spreading very easy and smooth. Also only a small amount of it is needed for the whole face, even though I usually like to apply more than enough lol.

Smell: It doesn't smell much like lavender to me, but more like some medical cream. The scent is very fresh and not too strong. It is somehow pretty soothing too, but maybe thats because my brain has associated that scent to going to sleep soon.

My Experience: This feels so good on my skin! It has a cooling effect, which feels awesome after a long day. It also feels moisturizing immediately.

I use this about two to four times a week, depending on my skins condition. I actually used this every night for over a week at some point and my skin could take it and didn't break out, which is a plus. This is very moisturizing, but doesn't make my combination skin oilier. My skin is so soft, smooth, even and healthy looking the next morning.

The Summary: I really like this sleeping pack, but as this is only the second sleeping pack I have ever tried (the first is Holika Holikas Honey sleeping pack in canola, as I had a sample of it and now considering to purchase the full product) I'm wanting to try out other sleeping packs with other features and also this is such a huge amount to use up, considering I don't use it every night, so I think I wont need to repurchase anytime soon and probably wont even in the distant future. But that doesn't make me like this product any less!

Clothing haul : YesStyle

Hellohello ! I have been shopping like crazy this spring and there seems to be no end to this madness. Today I received three packages, one from Yesstyle, one from Gmarket and one from Rose Rose Shop. I decided to share all my three hauls with you guys and I'm going to start with Yesstyle, to balance the amount of beauty haul posts.

But first, let's have a moment to appriciate this holy trinity here.


So here is what I got:

Sorry for the painfully low quality of these pictures!

As always with Yesstyle, it took such a long time until the goods were shipped. My fab shirt was the cause, as they had difficulties (again) to get it from the retailer(s). Luckily they got it after all. I made the order on 27th of March and these arrived today, 5th of May. Yesstyle has alot of nice clothes with a great price, but it's always annoying to order something and then wait forever for one item and then ending up not even getting it. I'm really glad nothing was missing this time.

Happy materialist is happy. So yeah, thats all for this time! I have lots of posts almost ready, so I can maybe post more frequently. Seeee ya ♥

Review: Skinfood Peach Sake Pore Serum

Hey you all! I'm back once again with a review! Today I'm going to review Skinfoods Peach Sake Pore Serum. I paid $8.03 for this, for I bought this from HonestSkin and they had a -30% sale. If you haven't already, you can check out my haul and review here.
Untitled
Description: A smooth serum that eliminates shine from enlarged pores and excessive sebum production with finest sake and peach extracts. 

How to use: After lotion, apply gently and cover face with hands, for deep absorption.
Untitled
Untitled
Packaging: The product is in a frosted glass bottle with a cute imitation wood like cap. It has a pump dispenser which pumps out just the perfect amount for my face. I also love the design of this, the peaches are so cool. Only con is the comic sans...

Consistency: The texture is quite light, creamy-like and easy to spread. It "absorbs" pretty well, leaving my face with a soft, matte feel.

Untitled

Smell: The smell reminds me of some fruity/peachy drink or something. It smells like a slightly artifical sweet peach and maybe a little bit of alcohol ? I love the smell of peach in general, but this doesn't smell that good to me.
 
My Experience:  I have been using this for a month now and I think it is safe to say that this doesn't do much for me. My pores appear smaller, but I'm not sure if it's because of this product or the Etude House Wonder Pore Freshner. (Reviewed here!) What comes to the shine, my face is okay for the day, not too oily, but at the evening I suddenly notice my skin is super duper oily, like oilier than normally. So it kind of eliminates shine, but doesn't seem to do anything to balance the oil production.

The Summary: This serum is okay. I still have about a half of it left so I'll continue using it, just to be sure it really does nothing. I don't think I will repurchase.

My Latest Gets

Hello hello! I have been shopping a little lately, spring really wakes up the raging materialist inside me. So I decided to share what I have hauled so far! Also my mom went to Estonia and she brought me some souvenirs so I'm including them here too. I'm sorry for the slightly bad quality of the photos, I don't know what happened. They looked good on my phone, I swear!

skirtandstockings

These three are the souvenirs I got from my mom (Love ya btw ♥), the sweater and the necklaces are from H&M. I actually asked her to look for that sweater, because our local H&M didn't have it and I hate to order from the H&M online store (I have traumas) The skirt and stockings are from Terranova I believe. They're kind of wild haha, lets see if I can style them nicely.

sunglasses
hmdress

The sunglasses are from Lindex. I really love them they're so perfect !! I actually haven't owned a pair of nice sunglasses since junior highschool maybe? Anyway, loving these a lot.

The dress is from H&M and it was on sale for 5 euros. The dress actually came with a same colored string belt, but I decided to use it for other purposes and wear some other belt with the dress instead. 

$okos

These I actually got today, when I went to the city with my mom and her bf! The nailpolish thinner (=kynsilakanohentaja, oh Finnish♥) is indeed from Trind and it cost only 5 euros, such a bargain. I really have been eyeing nailpolish thinners for a while, because I have so many thickened nailpolishes it's insane. The price has always made me not to buy one, I'm such a cheapskate lol.

I also got a Color Fresh Hair Toner from Wella in 5/0 light brown. I really like my hair color now, because it's so close to my natural color, so I don't have to color it almost at all and I would like to keep it that way. But somehow my hair looks so bland and boring to me, so I wanted something to change it a little. If this stuff is good, I might try out the other colors too just for fun. 

So thats all for this time! I have been writing some reviews, so if nothing interesting happens in my life, I can shower you with reviews. See you next time ♥
