Zara Haul!

I think every girl likes to go on a shopping spree and buy all the pretty things you see without worrying about the money you spend. 
I have been in such a mood when the sale period started! There was only one shop that I really wanted to go to and that was a reason for me to get up extremely early :) and that was Zara. 
I think their collection over the last months has been extremely pretty and flattering and so all the things I thought were still a little bit too expensive or not really necessary to become part of my closet now suddenly became affordable :) yay!

Some of my favorite hair products....




Tresemme, Neutrogena, Label.m, ... You name it, I review it :) 
One of my favorite things to try and find is amazing hair products. And this isn't an easy task.. Sometimes someone can rave about a certain product, that it is amazing, that it does everything it says it does, that it makes your hair look shiny and super healthy.. and when I try it out.. it doesn't work at all for me. I'm not sure whether that's just the fault of my own hair :D or whether the product is just not that good.. Having said that, I hope to be critical and really tell you honestly what those products do and whether they are worth their price tag. 
Let's start :)

Testing: the Rimmel lipsticks


Hi! 
This time, I chose my two Rimmel lipsticks to review for you. 
One is from the Kate Matte collection in 113 and the other one is the Moisture Renew in 700 Nude Delight. 
I have a small obsession for nude lipsticks so whenever I read about a new trend, I do some research and I go out and buy them :) I was immediately appealed to the matte finish of the red packaged lipstick, however.. I have to say... I am disappointed.

Mac Making Pretty Collection



Mac Making Pretty Collection 
I heard about this collection online via numerous makeup gurus. Unfortunately where I live in Europe, we have to wait until February for Mac to launch its makeup line Making Pretty. I have already decided I want to buy the lipstick in 3N. A bit of a weird name, but gorgeous packaging and a real nice nude colour. I heard that for some people, it washes you out a little bit and you are supposed to wear a lipliner with it to make it work. I have a number 7 lipliner designed by makeup artist Lisa Eldridge in Nude that I would use with that lipstick (twist up pen), or Mac lipliner in Subculture would also be a great alternative.  
The prices are slightly higher than the normal collection, but maybe the rose gold packaging justifies the higher cost? ;)
A lot of the Mac shops in America have already sold out, but for us, it is still waiting patiently for their collection to be launched in Mac stores... :) 
Happy holidays!
