Green Apple Lip Balm from H&M



Well i must warn you guys.. i think there will be loads of reviews on moisturisers and all sorts of hydrating (and NOT) products this winter. I THINK. I HOPE. Its getting kinda real cold here and looks like i will need new products to handle this climate. WOW. That is fun but also it just feels like a bad time to experiment. What do you think? Anyways this lip balm is one that i got from H&M awhile ago. I posted a picture of it on my Instagram awhile back. Its a really pretty packaging.. a cute little tin package. I decided to drop it in my handbag and totally forgot about it. I do use it every now and then but it wasnt really something i used on a daily basis.. but since its WINTER i decided i am going to test this one. FOR YOU!




Looks like a cute little tin suitcase. So CUTE! I just love how it clicks when you close it. LOL! I dont know why i am excited about little things but its nice to notice little stuff.. what do you think?


Scent:

Has a faint sweet scent of apples. Definitely not green apples.. more like red sweet ones. Quite nice.. alot like apple candy. Nothing too special.. but nothing weird or artificial for my nose.


Moisturization:

Glides onto the lips just like vaseline would do.. makes lips feel soft and totally smooth for a little while and it just wears off.




So..

OK let me admit it - this isnt exactly something you can use for your chapped lips.. it heals BUT it takes a day or two. In winter a day or two with chapped lips is totally NOT GOOD. 


Healing power is low
Moisturization is OK 
Price is BAD - Costs QR 29 


This is pretty pricey for something that doesnt really do much. Finally it just comes down to its packaging! Its a really cute little tin lip balm, if you are totally looking for something nice to drop into your handbag and carry around - Yes this is so cute and eye catching. Chapped lips, winter, dry lips, no nonsense lip balm - NO this is not for you!

[Closet Ideas and Winners] How much is TOO MUCH Lace?



Lace isnt really my day to day thing.. its always something i would like to keep for a special day. But then again sometimes you are totally tempted to try out new trends and styles yeah. Especially seeing all those beautiful outfit of the day posts done by beautiful ladies - makes you want to move out of your world and travel further. So i won this really pretty lace sweater from Sheinside  along time ago. Well must be a year ago but i never wore it. Ofcourse when i was living in the tropical island i really didnt  need a sweater (obviously) but after moving to Doha i thought, why not. Its time to bring out the warm clothes and try them out!




Isnt it so pretty and girly! I love it! Its not something you can only wear during winter.. it can be worn during the cold rainy seasons too! Ofcourse this can be worn with a pair of floral jeans or leggings and will look absolutely amazing BUT then i was looking through my closet and found this cute Lolita Skater Skirt i got from Chicnova and SNAP! I thought - lets wear these together and yes! It was so girly and my sweater top totally became a cute little lace dress!




Well i think you might just be wondering - REALLY?! The lace are both a slight different shade!! Oh yes its true.. the skirt is more towards a cream colour and that i think adds loads of character to this outfit.. rather than be a full white lace dress.. this is a more nice combination. What do you think? Do you like it? Is it too much lace? 


And now we move onto the Winners of the Week!


I AM GIRLY BLOG  - SURBHI AGARWAL
DAILYACCESSORIEZ - APRIL LYNNE 
LITTLE WOODEN WONDERS - KATHY FERGUSON
WRAPS BY NATALIE  - MEGAN VANDEVENTER

e.l.f Studio Baked Blush - Peachy Cheeky



Well yes so finally i am getting to try out the blushes from e.l.f! Everybody was talking about them EVERYWHERE! I know i am a bit late but here i am! This is my version! Why do i sound so excited?! GOD! I dont know.. i think its the MILKY BAR i am eating right now.. is it? but ANYWAYS..




My pictures are all gloomy and from another planet today because it is getting REAL COLD HERE! Like super cold! Which is nice ofcourse but i think i will need some socks for my feet! AH! I hate that! It just makes me more lazy.. does winter make you a lazy girl? Is it just me? Back to what i should be talking about - this blush is a really pretty peachy shade. You can see its beautiful and has a lovely gold shine to it. Not like scary glittery shine but the lovely gold glow kinda shine. Im sure there is a word to describe that but i am so behind in this make up world vocabulary stuff. But i will catch up sometime. SOON. definitely. Hope so. MAYBE. OK I THINK IT IS THE MILKY BAR THAT IS MAKING ME HYPER LIKE A LITTLE TODDLER AFTER ICE CREAM. AAAAAAAAH!




Isnt that so gorgeous?! I know. Well actually that is not 1 swipe! Its a couple of swipes so its not like so super duper colour pigmented in one swipe which is okay i guess, it depends on your preference. Some people love their blushes to be like loud and pigmented while some like to have something that they can build up on. So this is the build it up kind.


So..

Its a really beautiful colour! Good quality for the price definitely. Would look so lovely on fair skin im sure but for my dusky skin for some reason i felt it was more nicer as a highlighter than a blush. Its a really beautiful highlighter especially because of that gold shine and glowyness it gives. But as a blush.. well i think it just wasnt something i would wear. I felt the colour didnt really show up on my face as it did on the swatch. Maybe it was too shiny or the colour was coming on too light on my skin. Whatever the reason - this is a really nice highlighter but as a blush - i will pass! Its just not ME.



Have you used this? What are your thoughts?
