Rewarding myself

Since I handed in my essay yesterday (and it seems like my classmates haven't yet - what did I pressure myself for? -.-), I decided to reward myself and ended up buying my very first Jill Stuart item, the limited Charming Lily Blush Blossom (#07) I had spotted in Gooddealer.com! It's quite expensive, almost 44€, but I don't really have any nice blush apart from the two Mix Color Cheeks by Lavshuca, and while those are incredibly travel-friendly, I wanted something to put on my (not yet existent) vanity table. xD (I am eyeing the Mix Blush Compact in #11,Rose Fairy, too. (You probably don't know it, but apart from my cosmetics addiction, I am also a total geek and at the moment writing a Pokémon story about two sisters named Rose and Lily. xD Yes, I know that I'm 22 - but come on, don't you sometimes wish Pokémon - or Harry Potter - were real?) I also want one of her eye jellys, probably #13 Antique Chiffon. <3

Anyway, once I get the blush, I will review it, of course! (^___^)

    Ich hab grad nen Roman geschrieben und das Fenster geschlossen *kriegt ne Krise* also deshalb nur eine verkürzte Version meines Freudenausbruches was Jill Stuart betrifft. Ich hab nur den Mix Blush in #1 Baby Blush und es ist LIEBE. Derzeit halte ich mich zurück Sachen aus Japan zu bestellen, weil ich die ja günstiger bekommen werde in Japan, als sie zu bestellen, ist klar nech?

    Neben den westlichen High End Produkten sehen die JS Sachen aber sowieso Kickass aus :) 44€ sind ne Menge Geld, aber ich find den Pinsel soooo toll (und praktisch), dass ich die Schmerzgrenze immer noch ok find ^^

    Naja, dass bissel Luxus darf man sich als Student auch mal leisten ^^


    Von Yoshimoto hab ich bisher nur Kitchen, Eidechse, Dornröschenschlaf, Hardboiled und Tsugumi gelesen. Federkleid werd ich mir wohl demnächst zulegen, nur um zu wissen, warum deine Kommilitonin nun behauptet hätte, da wäre keine echte Liebe im Spiel, weil sie (wie bitte was?!) nicht mit dem Kerl schlafen wollte????!!!!!?!?!?!?!?

    (siehst du die ganzen Fragezeichen)

    Na was ist das denn fürn Argument :D

    Ich mag auch lieber ihre älteren schrägen Geschichten. Ich weiß auch nicht, aber ich hab einen Hang zum Subtilen und Fragilen. Darum mag ich Yoshimoto und Murakami seeeeeeehr :) Komisch... ich weiß nicht, ob du das kennst, aber jedesmal wenn ich deren Geschichte lese, fühlt man sich selbst ganz leicht, und alles um dich herum wirkt auf einmal so surreal. Ich mag diese Leichtigkeit und Stille, die mit dem Lesen dieser Geschichten einhergeht :) Ich verbinde dieses Gefühl immer mit Tokyo.

    Vllt bin ich aber auch einfach ein zu großer Japan-sucker *g*

    Apropos Berlin. Warst du schon mal im Cocolo (Nähe Rosenthaler futtern). Kann ich nur empfehlen :) Immer wenn ich Japan-Weh hab, gönn ich mir eine Nudelsuppe :D

    Du wirst es dort lieben, falls du noch nicht da warst :)

Green-tinted sunscreens - a comparison

Image
 I know I have not posted anything in years, because I was busy and because I started mostly exchanging beauty information with people on Reddit, but this seemed like the easiest format for this sunscreen comparison. For those who are new here, or have forgotten who I am (I wouldn't blame you), I am very pale (I wear Pale in Nyx) with a neutral undertone, but a lot of redness in my face, while my neck is more olive-toned. (I match foundation to my neck, not my chest, because I don't often expose the latter. for various reasons.) Green-toned sunscreens have intrigued me from the moment I first saw one - after all, I wear sunscreen every day, so why not use it to color-correct? Turns out, it's not that easy. Most of us know by now that sunscreen needs to be applied in generous amounts to actually protect us, but some of the sunscreens I tested made that pretty hard. If I applied too much at once, they got patchy and streaky , but if I tried to apply them in two or three layer...

Share: Do you have any skin allergies?

Luckily, I don't have any (known) food allergies, nor do I suffer from hay fever or the likes. I am, however, very sensitive to skin care and make-up ingredients, it seems. During my four weeks of "holiday" between the end of the semester and the start of my internship on Tuesday, I was mostly at home, and my skin greatly improved from not wearing make-up and sunscreen all the time. Yet, when I did go out and thus put on my BB cream (I still owe you a review, I know!), I had a new breakout. :( Both my sunscreens and the Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream contain zinc oxide, and I know that ParisB from mywomenstuff is, for example, sensitive to it, despite people usually claiming it to be good for the skin. So at the moment, I am testing out my skin's reaction to it. After all, it might be something else in the ingredients list, right? I also have the feeling that I get little breakouts after using Hada Labo's Super Hyaluronic Acid Lotion, so I am doing a little tri...

Skin care - about Sekkisei

As I mentioned before, I have purchased the trial set for Sekkisei (to celebrate their 25th Anniversary) last week and have been using it since then, together with another Kosé moisturizer (that smells the same as Sekkisei and is also said to have whitening effects.) I have also been using their sun lotion since late March and just started my second bottle a little while ago. When I googled for Sekkisei's ingredient's, I came across this very handy site: Sun lotion ingredients and their level of irritation and comedogenic effects I didn't get any more acne from it, as the comedogenic levels are only 2, and also no irritation despite it having some level 4 ingredients. Lucky! I also typed in the lotion and the emulsion . So far, it feels like my skin is getting better from the use of the products. My skin got some pimples, which rarely happens, but maybe that's because the cream is too thick for my oily t-zone, or maybe because both lotion and emulsion contain ...
