~MAC~ Venomous Villains

Ok, so these mineralize eyeshadows were sold out at my MAC counter the first day they came out. I actually got the last 2. Lucky me. Lol. I know it's silly, but I really wanted them. I also got the lipstick, cause I'm obsessed with nude lips and one more nude lipstick will not hurt me (the packaging looks cute).

I thought that I would buy more things but I only got 3 items from the limited collection and invested some money in an angled blush brush.

What I got: Mineralize eye shadows in "She Who Dares" and "My Dark Magic"; Cremesheen lipstick in "Innocence, Beware!"

If you had a chance to get anything from this collection please share.

XOXO, Olya

September beauty favorites.

This month I found some really good products that will stay in my cosmetic bag for a while. And there are some repeats. I will try to make this sweet and short:)

1. Proactiv Repairing Lotion. Spot acne treatment that works like magic.

2. Lancome eye makeup remover. It's really gentle and unlike other oily makeup removers did not cause an allergic reaction.

3. Teint Idole fresh wear Lancome foundation. It promices 18 hours of shine free look. Of course it doesn't last that long, but the thing that I love about it is that it goes on smoothly and leaves my face looking fresh and natural.

4. Epicuren Colostrum cream. One little drop of this cream moisturizes entire face without leaving it greasy.

5. Urban Decay All Nighter long lasting makeup setting spray. Keeps my makeup flawless throughout the day. I really like it!

6. Matrix Sleek. Look Smoothing system - Step 4 Sealing Serum. Great to keep those flyaways tamed.

7. MAC lipstick in Jazzed. I love this color with my tan skin. Summer gave me a nice glow and it looks nice, without overpowering orange tint.

8. Sally Hansen Diamond strength no chip base coat. I switched to this one from Revlon one, and I like it, cause it dries faster.

9. Essie's Lollipop nail polish. PERFECT bright red.

10. Some regular and cheap eyelash curler. It made it to this list because i've been using it every day this entire month. And I like it.

11. Loreal Secrets professional primer. It was on my list last month too and I have to say it works very well. What it does is minimizes the appearance of pores and gives make up a good base.

12. ELF duo eyeshadow in Mocha Swirl. I mentioned it few times and it is on my all time favorites.

This is it for the months of September. I hope this will help you guys to get more idea about some products that you might have wanted to try.

XOXO, Olya

Make up favorites for the month of August.

I know, I'm always late with my monthly favorites, but i still want to do them . Especially this month, because I found some really cool new products!

1. Dolce&Gabanna Light Blue parfume - THIS IS A PARFUME OF A MENEATER:)
2. Nivea chapstick with SPF 25. Worked great at the beach. BUT... cannot find it anywhere in US:(((
3. L'Occitane hand cream in Cherry Blossom scent. Love this scent so much!!!
4. Define-Lash by Matbelline. I have to say that this mascara separates lashes like no other, therefore, it's on my favorites list. But I still love my Loreal Voluminous mascara.
5. Sephora Heated Eyelash Curler. Works really good. But I will need to replace mine soon. I've had it for over a year. (sanitary reasons).
6. H&M nail polish in White. Perfect for the beach as well as a night out.
7. Loreal Studio Secrets professional magic perfecting base. I love it!!! I gave my MAC prep and prime a rest, since I got this product. Works like Magic.
8. Lush Sweet Lips lip scrub. It's just a sugar thing. And I'm not sure what's so special about it, but I feel like I need to use it everyday. Good idea to create a lip scrub, Lush!!!
9. Again my Loreal HD lip balm in Plush. Almost done with it. Will repurchase as sson as it comes back to stock in my local Target.
10. MAC tinted lip conditioner. I like that it gives my lips a little bit of color. And it's non sticky.
11. URBAN DECAY Primer Potion. Seriously, I cannot live without this thing! Try it, if you haven't.
12. It's a 10 (hair product) here's what it does:
repairs dry and damaged hair
adds shine
detangles
controls frizz
seals and protects hair color
prevents split ends
stops hair breakage
creates silkiness
enhances natural body
flat iron and thermal protector
If that's not enough for you, here is another great thing about it: Smells like heaven!!!

13.And last but not least my URBAN DECAY NAKED palette. OMG!!! I love this palette. I use it every single day from the day I got it on August 1st!!! Thank you, Katya!!!

I hope you enjoy this post and let me know what are your favorites for the month of August!
Please follow my blog and...

I went shopping today...

Yes, I went shopping today... Mainly because last Monday I lost my Tiffany earrings at the beach. I know, I'm really stupid to wear any type of jewelry to the beach, but I totally forgot to take them off. And this huge wage came at me and after that... good bye, my favorite Tiffany earrings. So... because I liked them so much and they were a gift from Nazar, I went to Tiffany's and got them. Except now they are $25 more, than they used to be... yeah, I'm stupid. But lesson learned:) AND, I took these pictures of the cutest wrapping that they do for their customers!

I also got few other things: Madewell 1937 harrem pants (on sale for $16), MAC blending brush (#224), MAC tinted lip moisturizer, and L'Occitane soap and lotion pack "Cherry blossom" scent.

p.s. I also tried on Hunter rain boots and they do not fit me right:( I was kind of upset, but it's ok, at least now I will not spend $125 on rainboots:)

xoxo, Olya

Take me to the Country Fair!

July Favorites!

Did any of you feel like July flew by in a split second? I did!!!

During this month I used a lot of lip products, even though most of them are in the same color range. I also went back to my old time favorite Coco Mademoiselle parfume by Chanel.

Here is the list of my favorites for the month of July:

1. Hard Candy Blush Crush Baked Blush in "Pin up 126" from Wal Mart. I use it for highlighting

2. Shiseido bronzer from Nordstrom.

3. Lancome High Potency Tinted Moisturizer SPF 30. I have to say that this product is great, however, I do need to use setting powder to keep oil off my face. It makes my face oily, but DOES NOT break me out. I bought it in 1 Naturel and use it instead of foundation. Macys.

4. Caudalie Cleansing water (face & eyes). This product is so good! It's oil free and removes makeup instantly. I like it even more than the cream remover by Caudalie. Sephora.

5. Sephora professionnel smudge brush #14. I use it for gel eyeliner.

6. ELF Complexion brush from studio collection. Use it with setting powder. ELF dot com.

7. Gotta B' Urban bronzer brush from TJmaxx.

8. Mac Lustreglass in Love Nectar. MAC Macys/Nordstrom

9. Some nameless Tarte lip gloss, which I use over my Mac Hue lipstick. Tarte online store.

10. Bare Minerals lipgloss in Iced Champagne. Sephora.

11. Mac Hue lipstick. Macys/Nordstrom.

12. Nivea Lip Care SPF25 chapstick. CVS

13. Sephora blotting papers (vitamin C+E). 100 sheets.

14. Mac Teddy Eye Kohl eyeliner. Macys/Nordstrom

15. Mac Prep + Prime Skin Refined Zone Treatment for my T-zone. Macys/Nordstrom

16. Bare Minerals Mineral Veil. I use it as a setting powder cause it's translucent. It's great.Sephora

17. Coco Mademoiselle by Chanel. Sephora/ Macys.

And last but probably the most important is my new camera!!! I absolutely love it!
(I know, I can't stop taking these self pictures)

June favorites.

Hi girls!
Im still sick ( I dont know if you knew that, but if you follow me on Twitter you probably do) and I've been feeling a little under weather this week, therefore, monthly favorites of June are a little late, I guess. But anyway, here are my favorites:

Let's start with beauty:1. ELF all over color stick in Lilac color. I use it for highlight. It's sort of like NARS multiples. I like it, and it smells like lemonade. I included one of these in my ELF giveaway!
2. Mac eyeshadows in Twinks, Era, and Shroom. I use Shroom to highlight my brow bone, and the other two are just all over the lid colors. I have to say that I really like Era, just because it's perfect for summer. It's very warm nude color, which is almost matte, but it's not.
3. Mac lipstick in Hue. I love this color! it's really beautiful. See it here.
4. Mac eyeshadow brush #239. This is my first MAC brush ever, and I absolutely love it. It's soooo soft and smooth. I'm in love!
5. Maybelline Falsies mascara. I bought it because I ran out of Maybelline Stileto one, and this mascara has a curved brush, so I decided to give it a try. It's good!!! I love everything about it except for the smell. I dont know why, but all my Maybelline mascaras have a very strange smell. Does yours smell too? I mean it's not horrible, but a little strange.
6. Victoria's Secret Noir body mist. I think I told you guys that I love this scent! I even have the parfume, but it lasts for like 10 minutes. That's why I decided to buy the mist, so I can have it in my bag and respray if I feel like it:)
7. Loreal H.I.P. jelly balm in Plush. Oh. My. God! this balm is amazing!!! It's so good! I have to go to Rite Aid and get a back up just in case they will run out of it!
8. N.Y.C. matte bronzer. It was only $3, and I wanted to try out matte bronzer. I also heard that this one was good, so I gave it a try. And? I loved it! I use it almost every day along with my shimmery bronzer. It's just some places on my face do not need shimmer. And the color of this bronzer is called Sunny.
9. Stephenie Meyer's book "The short second life of Bree Tanner". I love this book as much as I loved the Twilight books. I just had to read it, cause it goes along with the Eclipse book. If you are into these book, you have to read this one! Plus, $1 from each book sold will be donated to the American Red Cross! I've heard they've donated about $2 million. How amazing is that?!

I also wanted to talk about my current nail polish pick. I was really looking forward to find the essie Mint candy apple one, but it's sold out everywhere. So, Traget to the rescue!!! I found this Revlon "Minted" nail polish and it's exactly the same color! If you are interested, I love Revlon Base coat #955. And as for the top coat, I use Orly "In a Snap". It dries my nails in a SNAP:)
A little demonstration for you here:)

And this is my outfit of the day. I went to see Eclipse in IMAX today. It was so good. I look sort of sick in the picture and that's because I was, and still am.

Shirt, skirt, sandals - ZARA; Belt - Gap; Bag - Longchamp.

I'm supposed to go away this weekend for 3 days, but thats if I start feeling a little better. And if I do go away, I will probably be back to blogging sometime next week.

Have a great weekend, ladies!!!! Go see Eclipse!!!

P.S. Do not forget to enter my ELF giveaway, if you haven't done so. Please enter it only ones and make sure you read the rules first. Enter the giveaway here. I'm super excited to pick the winner. We still have until the 12th of JULY.

Random beauty stuff

Oh boy! I'm finally getting around to do my monthly beauty haul. This month I didn't get much stuff, just the things that I ran out of. And the things that I have wanted to try out for a while.

So, the first two products are the two MAC lipsticks. The one on the left is "Creme de nude" and the one the right is "Hue". I've been using them for the past 2 weeks and I like them a lot. They are very similar to my ELF mineral lipsticks (runway pink and nicely nude), except ELF lipsticks are very matte and these are more creamy.

Then we have 2 nail polishes. OPI "what's with the cattitude" and Orly "In a snap" top coat. I was looking for a good top coat and Orly has about 6 different ones. I went with this one cause I like my top coat to dry super fast, and I have to say that it did not disappoint. It's pretty good.

In the middle picture of my collage we have Sarah Jessica Parker parfume "Covet". I got this parfume at TJMaxx for $13 on clearance! I cannot say that I love the smell, but it is something different for me. It smells like ginger, citrus, and spice. I do like it though, cause the smell is very fresh.

On the lower right corner we have my Shishedo bronzer( I repurchased this product). I love this bronzer!!! It's absolutely perfect. It has shimmer, but the shimmer is so fine that it doesn't make you look like a shiny disco ball. And the color combination is very warm. If you like bronzers, go to Nordstrom near you and check it out. It's good!!!

And right next to it is my other bronzer/blush. I didn't buy this, I got this as a gift from my boy's cousin. The brand of this make up is called Oriflame and the name of the line is Giordani Gold and is represented by 2 Gs (GG). It is more of a blush than a bronzer but I do like it. Most European countries have this brand available to them.

Next we have MAC's cream blush in "Lady Blush". I like this blush a lot. Mainly because it has a peachy undertone to it, which matches my skin well. I do find it hard to apply, though. Because it's very pigmented. SO, I need to use very little of it to get the color I want. Something tells me that I will have this blush FOREVER!

And the last good product will be MAC's eyeshadow in color "Twinks". It looks beautiful. If you like brown colors you have to check it out at your nearest MAC counter. I use it everyday, since I got it.

Now, the last product from my collage is this Tarte cheek stain/blush in color Dollface. It's like a cream stick and I hate it!!!! It smells bad, and I have to rub it so much before I even notice any color on my cheeks. It has a greasy consistency too! I just cannot stand this product! And I regret paying $24 for it! Also, applicator is very uncomfortable. You have to push the bottom with a thumb in order to get the blusher out. So not practical..

And on this note, that will be it for the month of June so far. I did buy some things at H&M and ZARA, but I guess, I will include it in my outfit post.

I hope all of you are having a good summer!

So far, we didn't have that many hot days, but I think they are on their way!

What are your summer essentials this year?

Let me know, cause I'm thinking of putting together a list of trendy things for summer 2010.

Till next time, XOXO, Olya

May Favorites!

Hi everyone! I almost forgot to do the monthly favorites, but youtube beauty gurus reminded me. In the month of May, I was light on the make up, but super abusing on my hair. Curling, staightening, brading, etc. You all, know that my favorite shampoo and conditioner is by Herbal Essences, so I did not include them in the picture. (Click here to see).

I also changed my face care rutine. I'm trying Proactive! I'm pretty desparate, I know. And I don't know if you remember, but I was scared to use it cause I thought that it would dry the hell out of my skin. Well, it's nothing like that! I like it. I just finished week 3 last night. I have the deep cleanser, regular cleanser, toner and spot treatmet cream.

Anyway, here are my favorites for the month of May:

1. Proactive solutions!!!

2. Fructis Style Full Control Hair spray. It doesnt leave your hair all stiff and doesn't make it feel like plastic. It holds well.

3. CHI 44 iron guard. I use it before I curl or straighten my hair. Just make sure that after you spay it on your hair, you air dry it as well. Cause i see some of the youtubers, telling people to go staight to styling, and you can see and hear their hair getting fried. Steam is hotter than the highest temp of any heat styling tool. So, just be careful.

4. Olay Quench self tanning lotion. Love it! Just do not over use it!

5. NYX lipgloss in color Beige. The application is super smooth and this color is very nice berry pink.

6. Voluminous Loreal Paris mascara with curved brush. I love it! And you've seen me talking about it few times here.

7. Sephora brand lipstick in lip attitude glamour G10. For me this is the perfect nude color without any hint of pink in it. I bought it last year, but did not use until the month of May. I cannot believe that I forgot about it!!

8. Mac greasepaint stick in color Dirty. I use it as an eyeliner. The color reminds me of a Satin Taupe eye shadow that I love!

9. Victoria's Secret sexy little things parfume NOIR. I love this parfume! It's the best VS parfume that I have ever smelled! Super delicate and feminine.

10. Mac Prep+Prime skin refined zone treatment. This thing minimizes pores. Works like magic! I apply it on my T zone, wait few minutes, and then apply foundation.

11. Mac eye shadow in Shale. I don't know why, but I keep coming back to this eye shadow. It's really cool. I would say, this should be your first eye shadow from MAC, that's how special this eye shadow is to me:)

12. Mac blush in color Dame (satin). I love this blush. I never thought that I would like it that much. I'm still trying to get my hands on Mac's cream blush in color Lady Blush. It's been sold out at my Mac counter for few weeks now:(

13. Lip balm by brand called One in berry delicious. I got this balm at Target and I have to say that I cannot stop putting this stuff on. The taste of it is so addictive! it was $3.

14. Sheshido bronzer. I got this bronzer 2 years ago and still going strong with it. You do not need a lot of it to get the best results. I wonder if they still have it. I will check it out and let you know.

15. Sephora brand blotting sheets. These sheets are not like the regular ones, they seem to be made out of plastic or rubber. They work very well and I believe I paid $10 for 50 sheets. It's a must have in summer.

And my last item of May favorites is this bag. I used this bag every single day in the month of May. I used to have a large Long Champ Tote, but it was too big for me and often got super heavy. So, I settled for the medium size one, and will not be going back to the large one. I will still use it for traveling but for every day this is my new friend.

I Hope you enjoyed this post

Please let me know

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PRODUCTS FROM THE MONTH OF MAY

xoxo, Olya

P.S. I keep forgeting to talk about Sex and The City 2. I saw it last Friday. And for about 2 days I could not form an opinion about it. It was ok, but yet not that great, I guess. I really did not like the fact that they all got really old. I hated very much the most of the outfits. I probably liked only 2 or 3. That's it!!! I dont know, I do not want to spoil it for the ones who hasn't seen it but it wasn't that good at all.

My favorite part of the movie? Well, it's the part where Samantha was yelling on top of her lungs to all the arab men on the street of Abu Dabi, That she LOVES SEX!!!!

little beauty products haul

I'm doing another haul of the things I've bought over the last few weeks, because there are few exciting things that I would like to share with you. I guess, number one thing that I should mention is that I've been doing some serious summer shopping. And even though I haven't found that many things that I like, I did buy some stuff. I found few pairs of sandals and shorts, as well as new beauty products.

So, first we will talk about beauty products and then, maybe later on this coming week, I will blog about clothes.

As, you can tell, my obsession with nail polish doesn't stop. Now people are buying me nail polish! One of my co workers got me the wet n wild polish in Red Tape; very nice brush and color is super vibrant. So, thank you Mellisa!!!

Then, I got NYX eyeshadow pallete($7) in Jazz Night, which color wise reminds me of Kat Von D's Beethoven eyeshadow pallete. I still have to try these out, so I will get back to you on this.

I also got NYX mega shine lipgloss in 129 Beige ($4); it's not beige at all, it's actually pink, so I dont know where the name of it comes from. And I got Revlon colorburst lipstick in 025 Carnation ($7).

I like both the lip gloss and the lipstick.

From MAC I got 3 eyeshadows: shroom, nocturnelle, and sunny spot. And I got my first blush in such a long time which is in color Dame. I love this blush. I really wanted to buy the cream Lady Blush blush, but they didn't have it, so I went with this one and I do not regret it at all.

And last, nail polishes: OPI Srawberry Margarita, Sally Handen Gray by Gray and Iced Coffee, Wet n Wild Red Tape, and Essie Chinchilly.

On to the face and body products:

2 Epicuren face cleansers: Gelle and Citrus.

2 Caudalie make up removers: Small bottle liquid remover ( very good one, did not stress out my skin at all) and Big bottle cream make up remover (I've talked about this one before - my favorite!)

Olay self tanning lotion. Quench. Read on to see before and after pictures.

Loreal concealer. I haven't tried it yes, so cant say anything.

Bare Minerals powder in color fair. This is my second one. I like it, you know.

And, since I bought all these things in Sephora, I got a free sample of Michael Kors parfume "Hollywood". Not my taste, but It's not bad, I could wear it if I had nothing else. It's nice, just not me.

So, here is Wet 'n' Wild nail polish in 213B Red Tape. The color matches Vogue color!

Olay self tanning lotion for fair skin. I would have to say, that it works very well, and you can control the color intensity. For example, it says on the bottle to use it for 7 day to get best results. I used it only for 5 days and it was more than enough. I think if I was going to use it more it would turn my legs orange. Over all, good product and not expensive at all. I paid $6.99 at Face Value. And to reduce the color intensity you can just wash legs well in the shower.

Alright!!! This was a long post, I know. Let me know guys if you like these kind of posts. Cause if they are too annoying to read I will try to shorten them:)

Have a nice weekend!!!

XOXO, Olya

Very good beauty products under $10!

Hello, bloggers!!!

I decided to make a list of my favorite products that are under $10. It's a pretty popular TAG on youtube, so I hope you enjoy mine. I of course, chose products that I have used and plan to repurchase. Most of them you can find in drug stores near you. The only one that are not in every drug store, are the Jesse's girl eye dusts, which are only available at Rite Aid or online. And ELF can be found in Target or online as well.
I tag all of you to make a blog post response to this post. And don't forget to leave a link to your post.

Jesse's Girl eye dust! I bought mine at Rite Aid. They cost only $3.99 and are something like a pigment. The color collection is awsome. I would go and check it out, cause it's a very nice quality eyeshadow pigments.











Maybeline Color Sensational lipstick. I have 3 of these. The ones I have are: Pink Plaza, Pink me up, and Coral Crush. This lipstick is full of color and moisture. It goes on smoothly and stays on as long as any other more expensive brand lipstick. I would recommend smelling it before you buy it. I guess drug stores do not check the expiration on these, so make sure yours is fresh! It's about $5 in Target.

Revlon ColorStay Liquid Lipstick. This lipstick stays on for HOURS!!! I used it one time for a wedding party and it stayed on all night. It's $8.99 in Target. Once you put it on, wait a min to let it dry and then just apply your favorite clear lip gloss over it.

Sally Hansen Complete Salon Nail polish. It comes in variety of colors and is comparable to OPI in my opinion. I paid $7.89 for mine at Target. They say that you can use this nail polish as base, color, and top coat, but I use Revlon base and top coat with these.

Loreal Paris, Voluminous curved brush mascara. I paid $5 for it at Target. And if you remeber I compared it to my favorite Lancome Virtuose mascara. It's absolutely perfect mascara. Soft application, brush that does not clump lashes, very dark black color. Everything about this mascara is worth the money. I think it should be worth more!

Coastal Scents gel eyeliner in Stellar. Coastal scents offer a lot of different colors in gel eyeliner. This one is my favorite. It's black with some fine dark blue glitter. It's $6.99.

RIMMEL "Spark it Up!" eyeliner. It has some fine glitter in it and is super easy to apply, meaning, you don't have to keep penciling it into your lid. It's $3.99. My favorite drug store eyeliner.

And of course, I had to include ELF products. They are very cheap and surprisingly good, since I've never expected such a good quality from $1 products. My favorites are Shine erase blotting sheets $1. Powder Brush $3. Eyeshadow duo in Mocha swirl $1. Eyebrow styling gel $1.

St. Ives Apricot scrub. This scrub is the best scrub that I have ever bought at drugstores. it works very well. I use it 3 times a week. $3.89

Herbal Essences "Tousle me softly" Shampoo and Conditioner. This stuff is really good too. $3.99 each. I use these and the next product at the same time. It keeps my hair clean longer, and gives it really soft feeling. I highly recommend trying it out.

Aussie deep conditioner. I love this product. I wash my hair 3-4 times a week, and I use it everytime. My hair is coarse, a little bit dry and wavy.

$3.99. The main reason why I like it so much, is because it doesn't make my hair greasy, like some other deep treatment masks, but leaves it super soft. And the price is unbeatable!!!

Neutrogena Make -up Remover pads. This removes any type of makeup that you might have. It's that strong! So, I do not recommend using it every day. But on those days when you have an extra pound of makeup on you and you want to get it off fast and easy - go ahead!

Nice package, with easy reseal sticky top, which make it easy to preserve it.

$3.99

XOXO, Olya

April Favorites.

Ok, so I decided to do a monthly favorites posts at the beginning of each month.

I really like reading what bloggers like the most and about their purchases and recommendations. Because honestly, I never buy anything expensive (especially makeup), unless I read some review or watch video review on youtube. It just helps me to make up my mind on whether it's worth it or not. And, most of the time I find out some good information on new products.

And now, let's talk about my April favorites. It's not a lot, but it works well. I will write down the name of the product and the price (not to brag), just so you guys can see that sometimes the price of a product, doesn't mean anything. I know many people who like only expensive makeup and would not buy anything cheap. However, nowadays, there are so many choices out there, that we can easily find good dupes of that high end brand for a much lesser price. So, I hope you guys will like this post.

And don't forget to leave a comment or ask questions!!!

#1 and I never thought that I would be saying this, but it's "Fantasy " parfume by Britney Spears. I love the smell!!! At the beginning I thought it was too strong, but it's a really wonderful smell. Sweet, fruity, very girly with a hint of sophistication. $14 at TJMaxx

#2 is Maybelline lipstick in Coral Crush. Perfect color for spring and summer. And it gives a lot of moisture to the lips. Target $6.99

#3 is ELFs mineral lipstick in Runway Pink. This lipstick goes absolutely with everything. It gives my lips a sort of nude shade. I like it a lot, since I can wear it anywhere: school, work, party, etc. eyeslipsface.com $5.00

#4 is MACs GAGA lipstick. It's very pink! However, you can start from a small amount which will give you pinkish lips and build it up to a very pink color. Also very moisturizing! MAC counter at Macys $14.00

#5 is Maybelline mascara. It's called The Stiletto Voluptuous in very black color.The reason why I like this mascara is because it has a super curved brush, which makes it impossible to miss any lash and the price is trully awsome, Target $6.99!!!

#6 is my all time favorite makeup remover from Caudale Paris. I love this makeup remover! It's a cream and because I have a very sensitive skin, most of liquid removers irritate it. But this one works great! I use to buy Nivea cream makeup remover, but they discontinued it. So, I buy this one at Sephora for $26. A LOT!!! I know, but it lasts me for about 6 months! And I use it everyday!!!

#7 is my new favorite - Urban Decay primer potion. It works so good! I really like it. I bought it for the first time in April with one of my friends. She told me that hers didn't work. But then, I told her that once she applies it she has to wait like 30seconds for it to dry and then apply eyeshadow. She did so, and said that she will never go back to any other lid primer but UD primer potion!!! Sephora $18

#8 is my new liquid foundation. It's the Clinique even better makeup. This foundation is oil free (no breakouts) and makes my skin look super smoth. People in school and work noticed a difference in my skin. Sephora $24

#9 is Bare Minerals foundation in color Medium. I love it. the reason why? Well because this foundation is super light and I use it as my concealer over the Clinique even better liquid foundation. Sephora around $25.

#10 is Lancome Youth Activating Eye Concentrate. I didn't buy this, I got it as a free sample at the Lancome counter at Nordstrom. But this product prevents puffiness. I use it at night before bed if I know I have to wake up early. It really reduces puffines. I like it, It works.

#11 is my absolute #1 favorite in April!! ELF eyeshadow duo in Mocha Swirl colors. OMG!!! I cannot describe how much I like this product. The darker shadow I use all over the lid, and the lighter shadow I use under my brow to hightlight the look. It's sooo good!!! I got it at ELF online store for $1!!!!

#12 is two products: MACs "all that glitters" and "satin taupe" eyeshadows. I love MAC, but I used these two the most last month. I used "all that glittes" over the lid and "satin taupe" in my crease. I love the look it gives me. MAC counter at Macys $14 each.

And, just so this post would not be completely about make up, I decided to post a picture of my favorite book of last month. I actually got this book as a gift from the doctor I work for. This book is amazing!!! It's super easy to read too! When he gave it to me, I was like: is he serious??? But now, I'm happy I own it. It kind of teaches you how to talk to you patients, so that you would have a nice practice, and so people would like to come to your office. It also has chapters on how to collect money properly and how to deal with insurances. I know, strange, you would think?! But, trust me, it's helpful.

Ok! So, I hope I didn't bore you to death and that you will find some of my writing usefull. Let me know if you have any questions!!!

XOXO, Olya
