OPI Skyfall

Hey girls!

I am so sorry for not posting anything this past month, but there are a lot of things going on in my life. Me and my boyfriend are going to California in April, so we are saving all the money we can. Also I have been busy in school and I am trying to get to Spain for Erasmus exchange program. So all my mind in concentrated to these things. Okay, enough about that. I wanted to show you this nail polish. I absolutely adore it. It is amazing. So shiny and creamy and easy to apply, so opaque. Stunning, absolutely stunning. At the beginning I thought that it will be too brown and weird looking on my nails. I was totally wrong. Just look at the pictures and you will fall in love! lol

Hope you liked it.
Have a great day. Ieva ♥

OPI - Don't Mess With OPI

Hey girls!
Today I am wearing this grass green nail polish from OPI. This is the only green polish I have in my collection. You definitively can't wear it with every outfit and in every occasion, but I like it. I don't use it quite often, I think that this was the second time, but I noticed that both of these times it chipped so fast.

Have a nice day!

Rimmel London Lasting Finish lip pencil in Spice

Hi guys!
Here is another lip pencil from Rimmel.
Because I really like the Indian Pink one I wanted to try out some more of them. This on is in Spice. I am not sure why I picked up this colour, because it is not what I would usually grab for. However, it is quite lovely. Something different in my lip stuff collection. I like it with a gloss on top.

Hope you are having a wonderful day!

ORLY In the Navy

Hey girls!
As you can see I typically paint my nails in darker colors in the wintertime. I am waiting for the spring so badly. I want the bright colors not only on my nails, but also in the clothing. I checked out OPI upcoming collections : Spring/Sum​mer 2013 Euro and it looks gorgeous. I can't wait to get my hands on it, but for now, I am wearing all these dark colors on my nails. If you like dark nails, you will probably love this nail polish from ORLY. It goes on so smooth and looks just stunning on nails. It has like a small glitter in, but you can't really see that on camera (or maybe you can). Overall I love this color and this nail polish.

Have a great week!

LUSH Twilight Bath Bomb

Hey girls!
Now in winter time a take a lot of baths. There are several reasons. I will tell you more about my skin problems in other post in more details, but shortly, I have a very sensitive skin, and in winter time my legs extremely itch from the water. I am trying all kinds of stuff to get rid of that irritation, but the easiest is to take a bath with some kind of bomb, melt or something in. It really takes the irritation away, because the water is more soft and moisturizing. So I take a lot of baths in winter time.
This time I used this LUSH Twilight bath bomb. I really liked the smell, that's why I bought it. It's big, pink bath bomb. I don't want to go in details, because there will be a lot of pictures below. You will see it in action. I just will add that my skin feels soft, silky and smooth after this bath. And those big silver glitters don't stay on your skin after the bath, maybe just some of them stick to you, but it's not a problem for me.
In general, I love this bath bomb. Try it, if you want something relaxing and you like the smell of it.

Have a nice day!

OPI Lincoln Park After Dark Suede

Hey girls!
Wanted to show you make nails of the day! This nail polish is not new, it's from OPI Suede Collection 2009. Back in the day I hated suede nail polishes, but now I have fallen in love. It's just something different, and sometimes I get bored of those shiny nail polishes. I think this is a great alternative. Lincoln Park After Dark Suede looks really nothing like the original Lincoln Park After Dark. This polish is purple with silver glitter.
I think that I'm going to buy some more of these suede polishes, I hope I will find them.

 you can see

As you can see, here, on some nails, I put a topcoat on, so you can see how it looks when is shiny. 

I really prefer the suede one. I think it looks unique. 

Have a nice day!

OPI Live and Let Die

Hey girls!
I am wearing this color at the moment. It is from the OPI Skyfall collection. This Live and Let Die polish is a creamy shade of dark green with gold shimmers in it. I was not sure whether to buy it or not. It looks interesting in the bottle but I wasn't sure if I would wear it often. I am so happy now that I bought it, because it is gorgeous. It looks stunning on the nails. It looks almost black from a distance but when you looks more closely you can see that it is dark green with shimmers. I think that it is a great thing, because you can wear it with almost every outfit. Okay, I will stop here. Enjoy the pictures.
Oh, almost forgot. I painted my nails five days ago and they haven't chipped at all.  And also you can easily get along with only one coat.

Have a nice day!

Rimmel London Lasting Finish lip pencil in Indian Pink

Hey girls!
I wanted to show you my favorite lip of the moment. I think this color is perfect for autumn and winter and also for holidays. I used only this lip pencil and nothing more. Of course you can use a similar lipstick on top of it, or a lip gloss, but I love this color and I like my lips to be mat especially if they are in bright color. I don't like when my hair sticks to the gloss and all that jazz.
I think that this color is gorgeous and it will suit all skin tones. This lip liner is very affordable as well and great quality. I will check out more of these Lasting Finish lip pencils.

The Balm - Balm Jovi Rockstar Face Palette

Hey girls!
I wanted to show you this amazing palette. This is going to be a big blog post with a lot of picture, because I just love this palette so much. I saw this one in one of emilynoel83 videos in youtube, so I had to have it!
It's my first purchase from The Balm. I can't buy it here in Latvia, so I purchased it online from feelunique.com for 34£. I think that this would be a great gift for a friend or sister. And it is totally worth the money.

Lote is almost in every picture, so I hope you like cats! 

 Very colorful and crazy packaging. 

As you can see it is quite big but very thin.

It has very lovely heart shaped mirror inside. 

 Amazing picture

 So, palette has 12 eye shadows inside, blush, highlighter an two lip/cheek colors. 

 These are the lip colors and as you can see there is also a small guide how to make some looks. 

This is how the palette looks totally opened. 

And now the swatches:

These four colors are called HEAVY METAL

from left to right: Metal-ica, Iron Maid-in, Lead Zeppelin, Alice Copper

These four are called Classical

From left to right: Presto, Moderato, Allegro, Adagio

And the last four are called Alternative

From left to right: Third eye blinded (can't really see this one), rem, The Stroke, Blink 1982

 Solid Gold highlighter (the same as Mary-Lou Manizer) and Don't You Want Me? blush (the same as Frat Boy)

And last but not least the lip colors: Milly and Vanilly

I think that this palette is a must have. The eye shadows are very pigmented and super smooth. We have here some matte shadows as well as shimmery ones.We have here some highlight colors, crease colors and also some very  extraordinary ones like Alice Copper, Lead Zeppelin, rem etc. All of these colors are gorgeous.And the blush, and the highlighter. I can't say enough for this palette. 

For me the best thing about this palette is it's packaging. So colorful an contains so much stuff inside, but still not very bulky. Also the price is very appropriate. 

Almost forgot to mention the names, but I guess you already noticed. Everything is well-considered.

I will stop here. I have pain in my fingers from typing so much and so fast. lol 

See you soon girls.
