Collaboration - 7pcs Mermaid Makeup Brush Set from BeautyBigBang.com

Hi dear!
I'm back with a new collaboration with the online store BeauyBigBang. This time I received for review this set of synthetic brushes! The code of this product is: SKU:B3326

Frankly, I have to say that these brushes works really well. And I have tested them for 3 months!!
They are soft, easy to be cleaned.
The do not lose colour even if you use very hot water. 
In the photos below you can see the brushes after 3 washes, practically unchanged from their arrival.
As you can see there are small and medium brushes. The small brushes are thought for eye make up and I will review them one by one. The medium brushes are too small for my face. They work fine for highlighter but too smaller for contouring. My global rating for this set is 8/10, because it has a good quality.

 This is the set in its totality. Look at these colours!
 Here we have the eyeliner brush. It works fine and permits to trace precise or blended liners, as I like to do. Not indicate for very fine lines.


The following brush is a pen brush. I'm loving it for applying a specific eyeshadow along the socket-line or for a super blended eyeliner.

 Finally, a brush for blending, not the biggest I own but a nice one.
Here the summary of the smaller brushes.
 Here the medium-sized.

If you are interested there is also a special discount:



Thanks for your visit and all your nice comments,

Atkinsons English Garden – Peach Flowers – Scented Water for the Body

Hi dear!
For Christmas I bought this scented water by Atkinsons. I already know this brand since time ago I reviewed English Lavender too.
This kind of fragrance is something new for me, it is juicy, sweet, it reminds me spring time. 
The head notes are pink grape fruit and clementine. The heart mixes peach blossom and magnolia resting on a base of sandalwood, musk and cotton. It is not exactly fresh, nor powdery not excessively sweet! Since it is a scented water the perfume is not too loud but the scent, believe me, will last a lot on clothes. I like when a nice perfume persists on clothes.
The bottle contains 200 ml, a huge quantity. I've paid it about 13 €, a good price in my opinion.
All considered my rating is 9/10.
Here some photos and more information:














That's all for today,
thanks for all the nice comments!
See you soon!

Kisses

Face Serum - Natura Bio SIERO VISO RIGENERANTE INTENSIVO 10% BAVA DI LUMACA PURA con Acido Ialuronico e Aloe Vera Gel Bio

Hi dear! 
During the past Christmas holidays I discovered a new product for my skin routine. But I'm not sure I'll buy it again. But let's talk about this serum with pure snail serum inside!
First of all the consistency is liquid and quite bubbly :D
The perfume not really special.
The application easy thanks to the pump action bottle. The absorption very good. The results after one week of its usage are surprisingly very good! Skin appears more uniform, luminous and incredibly soft!! I suspended for some time its usage and I noticed that its effect still remains. So I imagine that this treatment can be done some times in a year during winter for example, as an intensive treatment.
My opinion in definitive is very good. I'm concerned about how this snail serum is extracted and that is why I will not buy again this product. Well, snails are not killed but I don't think they enjoy the process.
My rating: 9/10
Price: about 10 €
Here some photos and more information: 



INTENSIVE REGENERATING FACE SERUM 10% PURE SNAIL SERUM Hyaluronic Acid and Organic Aloe Vera Gel 

Thanks to its many properties, the Naturaverde Bio intensive regenerating face serum with 10% Pure Snail Serum helps to protect and hydrate the skin, fighting the signs of ageing.

Signature Collection WINTERBERRY WONDER Fine Fragrance Mist

Hi dear!
Today I will review a body mist by Bath and Body Works I received for this Christmas as a gift from a friend. This brand is American and it is specialized, as the name suggests, in the realization of every kind of product for body care, perfumes etc. This mist is supposed to remind cranberries, red fruits in general and ruby apple. Honestly it is a little bit synthetic the final result, in the sense that the perfume reminds me more pink bubble gums... However it's a shame to not use it, so last month I've used this mist and I received comments like :'you smell like a bubble gum!' Ahah! Really!
By the way, this mist is also quite resistant, in the sense that it leaves a pleasant perfume of berries and sweets on clothes.
My rating is 6.5/10 since this mist does not match exactly my taste, but little by little I will finish it. I also like to try different products!
Here some photos. Note that this mist contains aloe vera juice.




Have you ever tried this brand? If so, what's your opinion? Let me know..

Face Cream - CREMA VISO RIEQUILIBRANTE ANTI-ETÀ “PURYSENS”

Hi dear!
I've almost finished this face cream by l'Erboristica and before forgetting everything I've to write down my opinion. First of all the packaging is very comfortable with the usual pump action bottle. It is very hygienic in my opinion. Now let's move to the content. The cream is dense and yellowish. The perfume is good but now that I'm at the end...this perfume has bored me. It is something like talc.
The cream it is easy to be applied but after its absorption if you continue to massage skin some residuals will form, all over. I absolutely hate when creams act like this. Usually it happens when they contain silicone. Let's see the ingredients list:
Aqua [Water], Glycerin, Coco-caprylate, Azelamide MEA, Niacinamide, Hydrolyzed soy extract, Ethylhexyl palmitate, Acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, Butyrospermum parkii (Shea butter), Bakuchiol, Zanthoxylum bungeanum fruit extract, Betula alba leaf extract, Zinc PCA, Hedera helix (Ivy) leaf/stem extract, Macadamia ternifolia seed oil, Sodium salicylate, Sulfur, Camelina sativa seed oil, Arctium lappa root extract, Zinc ricinoleate, Tocopherol, Parfum [Fragrance], Oleyl alcohol, Olus oil [Olus], Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium gluconate, Limonene, Aluminum starch octenylsuccinate, PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil, Phenoxyethanol, Linalool, Citral, Eugenol
As you can see it doesn't contain silicone and the ingredients list is not so bad. So I think that the residuals are caused by acrylate crosspolymer a powder added to cosmetics that creates the opacity effect. In effect this cream is specific for skins with impurities and leave skin opaque. Unfortunately my skin is not so impure and during the use of this cream some pimples appear all around my face. This suggest that this cream could be comedogenic, so I will not recommend this cream in case you have problematic skin or acne. It is also supposed to be anti age. What I can say is that my skin appears effectively more uniform. 
I paid this cream 8-9 euros, my rating is 6.5/10.
I was expecting something more from this cream. I will not buy it again for sure. Here some photos and more information: 










That's all for today,
thanks for all the nice comments!
See you soon!

Die Zauberin Nails - OPI Malaga Wine, Swatches

Hi dear!
Time ago at the airport I've got the great idea to buy a set of mini polishes by OPI. But with my great surprise I discovered that they contain formaldehyde, camphor...for more information read a recent review Here. What do you think about this theme?
What a shame these nail polishes are formulated like this.
The colour Malaga Wine is so pretty and easy to be applied. It is important to have the brush plenty of product in order to obtain a uniform result.
As top coat I used the Rapidry by OPI. The result is astonishingly shining! Here some photos trying to capture this marvelous shade.

Soap Bars - Jabón de Tocador Suave Perfume Rosa, Nesti Dante

Hi dear!
Time ago I reviewed another soap bar from this line, 
Read here . Today I'm back with the version enriched with rose perfume. As the precedent one the perfume is quite strong, not exactly rose. It is a little bit synthetic. The foam it produces with water is rich and buttery. This soap is good for hygiene in general. I've used it only for hands and for washing brushes.
My rating: 7/10
Price:0.80 €

Soap Bar - Sapone Neutro allo Zolfo, Mantovani

Hi dear!
As you know I like to use soap bars for my hygiene, in particular I prefer the ones which contain sulphur. They are particularly indicated for impure skins with pimples etc.
I bought this soap bar in an Italian shop called Acqua & Sapone. It costed me something like 2 euros. The quality is very similar to Tabiano's one and also the perfume! So, this soap bar is a good substitute of the Tabiano one (read here the review). It cleans deeply skin, it is not too much aggressive. After its usage for the face is necessary to apply a good moisturizer.
My rating:9/10


From Sodalco.it
Sulphur exerts an effective sebum-regulating action on oily skin and acne. New formula 100 % soap of vegetable origin, enriched with Vitamin H .
