Reviews ~Finished Products January 2013

'Time for another Finished Products post. At this point I do Finished Products post for one year, whoop whoop! I started them in January past year. Let's take a look what I used up this month.'

'Ok, first three items. First I finished a Yves Rocher Jardins Du Monde Pomegranate Showergel. Catalogue price is 3, I paid 1,50. It smells really sweet and girlie. I want to repurchase this in summer, because this is more an summer scent.
Second item I used up is my Simply Pure SPF15 Face Cream. It's around 3, and available here in Holland at Drugstore Trekpleister. I don't want to repurchase this one, cause the package thorned at the cap, and when you're almost finished with it, a weird, nasty smell turns up.
Last thing I used up is a Catrice Perfect Resist Liquid Mousse Foundation. I don't know if it's still available. I have also no clue what I paid for it, seems to be a while.'

'Then two perfumes. The first one is Yves Rocher's Apple Delight which came out around Christmas. It was only 3,50 and this is a real fruity scent. I like it, but then more around Christmas.
The other one was an free sample which I got ages ago. It's by Jessica Simpson, and it's called Dessert. This was the Juicy one. It's a miracle that it did still smelled good, very sweet. I only didn't get the product out that well. I Googled around and this scent is still available.'

'Finally the last picture. I used up the usual Duo Cotton Pads from the Action, price is 0,52. And also as usual I used up an lip balm, this month it's the one from Drugstore Trekpleister. It was only 0,79, and it does the job.
Lastly I finished another single Catrice Eyeshadow, this time it's Sitting On A Volcano. The consistency became very gritty again. I don't want to repurchase any Catrice Single ES. I paid 2,79, but Catrice raised the price a little.'

'That's it!'

Reviews ~ Second Born Pretty Store Review : Kiss Beauty 16 Color Shimmer ES Palette #4

'My second review from Born Pretty Store is for the Kiss Beauty 16 Color Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette. I choose this palette, to compare it a little to the Wynie Cosmetics ES Palettes, which you can find <here> and <here>. So let's take a look.'

'First I want to say that this palette is strongly perfumed. If you are really sensitive for scents, I don't want to recommend this palette. But, the consistency is really smooth, and the shadows are really pigmented. In my case, I got shiny eyelids at the end of the day, but that's after wearing it at least 8 hours. It's great for beginners, and the palette is almost the same as the Wynie ones.'

'If you want to know more about the palette, you can check my video. Just click on the eye look.' ;)

Reviews ~ Max BB Cream Skin Perfection 3- in- 1 Cream (Action)

'Time to review one of my first BB Creams. I only had a BB Cream sample from Yves Rocher so far. The review for that, you will find <here>. It's the Max Cosmetics one, which is available at my local Dutch Action store. The full name is Max BB Cream Skin Perfection 3- in- 1 Cream. The package contains 25g, and is only €1,50. Let's see how this one works.'

'First a picture without anything on. I look horrible in the morning. I look very red. Do you see my blemishes.... Oh my paws.'

'Here a pic of the package, and a blob swatch on my hand. Looks pretty dark for a light color, but it matches my skin tone so far.'

'The first layer doesn't do a lot for my blemishes, as you can tell. I still look red.'

'Finally a pic with the final result. I used two thin layers here. Two layers looks better for sure.'

'Here I wear this BB Cream a lot heavier. That way it works way better as you maybe notice. In my case I need to use a powder over it when I'm wearing it that heavy, cause if I don't use powder, I look really shiny.'
Without powder... shineyyyyyy...
With powder...


Conclusion:
'The product match my skin really good, but I think this Light variant isn't for the palest skins. First I thought I need the Medium, but even for me, Medium is too dark. Besides Medium and Light, Max has also one in Dark. I read a few blogs which wrote about this BB Cream, and someone wrote that the package is really small, only 25g. You could easy finish this product. 
First thin layer didn't do it for me. You still see a few blemishes and also the redness is still there. It goes better with two layers. On my face the product didn't make it to 8 hours, it slightly faded away. You don't need to powder your face after using this cream, but if you like to, you can.
There's also a little scent to the cream, which didn't annoy me. This scent doesn't stay all day, it goes away after an hour. Overall, for €1,50 it's an nice BB Cream which does the job. Also an good thing, there's SPF15 in it. I'm not sure if I would repurchase. I will try it at least two weeks before I decide to back up on things.'

Favorites ~ Most Listened Songs Of January 2013

'I listened a lot to the same music this month. I had to listen to these songs over and over again, so I thought, maybe they are my favorite songs of January. In some of them I could find myself, in others I had to listen to it, because it reminds me of other people who need the message of the song.'

'The first song I had to turn a lot, was because of a person on Facebook, who had to complain a lot about her personal situation. I also had to listen to it, because of the fact that I am going to do an  exam again, in the hope to get a job in Journalism. So that's why P!nk- Try, is on my list of Most listened Songs this month.'

P!nk
Try

Ever wonder about what he's doing
How it all turned to lies

Sometimes I think that it's better to never ask why



Where there is desire
There is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame
Someone's bound to get burned
But just because it burns
Doesn't mean you're gonna die
You've gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try

Eh, eh, eh

Funny how the heart can be deceiving
More than just a couple times
Why do we fall in love so easy
Even when it's not right

Where there is desire
There is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame
Someone's bound to get burned
But just because it burns
Doesn't mean you're gonna die
You've gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try

Ever worried that it might be ruined
And does it make you wanna cry?
When you're out there doing what you're doing
Are you just getting by?
Tell me are you just getting by by by

Where there is desire
There is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame
Someone's bound to get burned
But just because it burns
Doesn't mean you're gonna die
You've gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try

You gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try


'The other song is made because of the survivors of cancer. I could find myself in this song, because I have to miss my daughter a lot, so it's just how you translate the song. I wish I could save my daughter from her grandparents, cause I know what they did to me. The people who know me, know what I'm talk about. The story is too long to share here in a few lines. I had also a brother who suffered from cell cancer. He died at an age of six, sadly enough.'

Simple Plan
Save You

Take a breath
I pull myself together

Just another step till I reach the door
You'll never know the way it tears me up inside to see you

I wish that I could tell you something
To take it all away

Sometimes I wish I could save you
And there're so many things that I want you to know
I won't give up till it's over
If it takes you forever I want you to know

When I hear your voice
Its drowning in a whisper
It's just skin and bones
There's nothing left to take
And no matter what I do I can't make you feel better
If only I could find the answer
To help me understand

Sometimes I wish I could save you
And there're so many things that I want you to know
I wont give up till it's over
If it takes you forever I want you to know

That if you fall, stumble down
I'll pick you up off the ground
If you lose faith in you
I'll give you strength to pull through
Tell me you won't give up cause I'll be waiting if you fall
Oh you know I'll be there for you

(Ahahaha)
If only I could find the answer
To take it all away

Sometimes i wish i could save you
And there're so many things that I want you to know
I wont give up till it's over
If it takes you forever I want you to know
(Oh)
I wish I could save you
I want you to know
(Ohohh)
I wish I could save you (oh)


'Next is some music in the gothic scene. The song isn't something where I could find myself in, but I like the mysterious voice of this dark lady. I think it's something different. However, you need to like it, else you don't understand the way they bring the song.'

Mandragora Scream
Dark Lantern

Never again will I taste in your passion


this vain call that dies. . .

Never across sacrifice will I lose my dark guide. . . 

Dazed in my dark and ephemeral wail that rapes a cool light, 

in a corpse-like, haunted, nightmare I die. . . 


Never in life


After tonight

Through my sighs

Don’t you change

I will lie


Always arisin’ over moulderin’, enlightened swear, 


never a light can die, Dark Lantern, darklin’ in light. . . 



Wavin’ this shine, overwhelmed by this whirl, 

and you engravin’ my gaze heavenwards in your face, 
are greedy of grace and lust. 
Graspin’ your heart, 
you mourn through risin’ of holy embraces. 

Groanin’ through this tearflow, I feel It’s getting dark. . . 


Always arisin’ over moulderin’, enlightened swear, 


maybe this light, Blind Lantern, in the Silence, is blindin’ my mind. . . 



Always arisin’ over moulderin’, enlightened swear, 

never a light can die, Dark Lantern, darklin’ in light. . . 

Always arisin’ over moulderin’, enlightened swear, 
never a light can die, Dark Lantern, darklin’ in light. . . 
Always arisin’ over moulderin’, enlightened swear, 
maybe this Lantern in the Silence, cries. . . . .and lies.


'Off course I had to put in a song from Epica. My name on Youtube is epicafan911, so I think that's explained now.'


Epica
Storm The Sorrow

Along the way I find myself


To be confined within me

No place for any other's mind to interfere


To grasp the meaning of it all

To overcome my limits

And dance away from any void and empty tones 

Just tell me why

Just tell me how

I can survive this time

Believe yourself and look away

From all that's rife within you

Leave all your worries at the door
And drift away


I’ve tried to peer into the core

But could not storm the sorrow

My hollow heart has bled me dry, led me to stray

Another time

Without a trace

Condemn me now
Send me to heaven
For I'm already failing


Intertwine the lines

That swim beneath the dark

Realize the pain we live in
Demonize the need we reel in


n my memories I'll dig deep enough to know

Centuries of dreams unending

Another me that yielded the tears when someone had 
betrayed


No time should ever go to waste

It’s not that complicated

You’re free to live your life at ease
No more restraints


No heed for shadows on your way

That try to steal your laughter

Your light will drive them all away
Be confident


Will I refrain?

Can I repent?

Will you be there?
Erase the page
For I'm alone and ailing


Intertwine the lines

That swim beneath the dark

Realize the pain we live in
Demonize the need we reel in


In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know

Centuries of dreams unending

Another me that yielded the tears 
When someone had betrayed


So

This is my life and you can't break me down

Go 
I will decide who can come in and heal my disease
Burn it in flames
Kill it and maim
Why can't you see that you need to be freed?


Intertwine the lines beneath the dark

Every bit of pain we're feeling

Every other solemn life
In the memories you will find somehow
There used to be a dream unending 
No more need to be alone


Intertwine the lines

That swim beneath the dark

Realize the pain we live in
Demonize the need we reel in
In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know
Centuries of dreams unending
Another me that yielded the tears when someone had 
betrayed
Someone had betrayed


'The next song I had to share, because of my daughter who I miss all the time. It's an oldie as well. It's by Emilia.'


Emilia
Big Big World

I'm a big, big girl in a big, big world


It's not a big, big thing if you leave me

But I do, do feel that I do, do will miss you much

Miss you much




I can see the first leaf falling
It's all yellow and nice
It's so very cold outside
Like the way I'm feeling inside

I'm a big, big girl in a big, big world
It's not a big, big thing if you leave me
But I do, do feel that I do, do will miss you much
Miss you much

Outside it's now raining
And tears are falling from my eyes
Why did it have to happen
Why did it all have to end

I'm a big, big girl in a big, big world
It's not a big, big thing if you leave me
But I do, do feel that I do, do will miss you much
Miss you much

I have your arms around me
Warm like fire
But when I open my eyes
You're gone

I'm a big, big girl in a big, big world
It's not a big, big thing if you leave me
But I do, do feel that I do, do will miss you much
Miss you much

I'm a big, big girl in a big, big world
It's not a big, big thing if you leave me
But I do feel I will miss you much
Miss you much
