Make-up Haul | Essence, Cliché and Pollié

Hello everyone!

Today we bring you our very first haul! We went to a little make-up store in our city and inevitably, we ended up getting a few items. 
We hope you like the products we got! 



First and foremost, I needed a wintery colored lipstick. We ended up buying two lipsticks and a lip pencil! This is "Adorable Matt!" by Essence:


And this is "On The Catwalk!", also by Essence:


The pigmentation is amazing and they are both really easy to apply! 
Now for the lip pencil, this is from Pollié and the number is 203:


Of course we had to buy some nail polishes and these are the ones we picked:


Last but not least, "The mattifying compact powder" by Essence:


That is it for today! We hope you enjoyed this little haul and we will see you very soon!

One Brand Show!: Chanel

Hi guys!
Hope you're ok and getting ready for Halloween! It's just around the corner!
Todays post is all about a HUGE and CLASSY brand: CHANEL!



CHANEL has been known in the fashion world for ages and more recently started its own makeup brand and perfume lot. Chanel nº5 is a well known perfume since I can remember but now the brand is trying to expand it's perfume collection and became more girly and flirty. It also started to create men perfumes and BLEU by CHANEL, is one of my favourites!
But today, we are getting into Chanel's makeup collection and, in a more specific way, the nail polish collection!

So, let's get started!
Every season Chanel launches new colors for their nail polish collection: some of them are permanent and become part of the official collection, while others are limited edition. I have here to show you two of the colors from the permanent collection and one limited edition, that my boyfriend gave me! 



First things first: the FORMULA.
These nail polishes are very temperamental. Yes, if you don't take good care of them or don't show them some extra love, they won't last. They need to be in a dry area, without direct sunlight. They will dry fast and be ruined if they catch any sunlight or stay in the heat. My polishes are in a cool, and dry spot in a drawer, in my room. 
In the actual nail, the polish is beautiful and it lasts a lifetime! It runs so smoothly and it is so easy to apply. The finish is shinny and very pretty.

The first nail polish that I'm going to show you is a perfec color for fall and (why not?) for Halloween too. It is a true red! A luscious and warm red colour that will make you the perfect femme fatale! This color is part of the permanent collection.


The name of this luscious color is Dragon, in the number 475.
It costed around 21 euros, in Sephora stores, here in Portugal.

The second nail polish is a very girly and sweet color. It reminds me of candy! It is a ver light and soft pink color, perfect for a pretty and simple look! It could almost be a nude color, but with a much more pink undertone. This is also a color that you can find in the permanent collection of Chanel's nail polishes.


The name of this one is May, in the number 535.
It also cost 21 euros in Sephora.

The last one is a treat! It is a limited edition color and it is gorgeous! I can't discribe this color very well because it is such a different color, but I think that is between a red and a coral pink colour. I know it sounds strange but it is hard to explain :) 
It is more red than pink but it has a coral undertone to it that gives it a spark and makes this nail polish a piece of art on your nails. It is my favourite one! And... it was a gift, so, how can I be more lucky? :)


In the foto it appears very pink, but it deffinitly has a more red tone to it.
The name of this gem is Élixir, in the number 589. I don't know the price of it, but I think it is the same or similar to the other ones. You can find it at Sephora stores, but I don't know if they are still selling it.

So, that is all for today!

I hope you are having a nice week, full of wonderful things, and don't forget to check the blog every now and then to see our new posts.

Autumn Colors | Nail polish

Autumn is such a beautiful season! Filled with beautiful colours, rich and cosy foods and awesome deep coloured nail polishes! In Fall we tend to get away from the pastel colors and go for deeper, darker tones. We can take a break from the bright summer colours and start wearing reds, taupes and browns. Of course you can wear these colours in summer and spring but, let's be honest, it doesn't feel the same!
So, today we would like to show you some nail polish colours that we love wearing in the Fall time.

Let's begin with a beautiful Taupe Colour! This colour is named Rose Taupe and it is a very nice colour to wear when you want something that goes with everything!




Next, we have the darker colours! The ones we chose are: Carmine Red, a berry-red nail polish, True Red which is a beautiful classic red polish and Dark Cherry, a darker colour that can be either sophisticated or edgy depending on the shape of your nails and your personal style!
These are beautiful to wear in the Fall time and let's face it, these colours make any woman feel sexier!




Now, we all love deep, dark colours in the Fall time but there is also room for lighter tones. Here we have a very pretty cream nail polish that gives a very sophisticated and classy look to your nails. It is an all year-round must-have and a very nice colour to top your french manicure!




Last but not least, we can get a little bit tired of dark colours so you can always wear a beautiful green colour like this:




We hope you liked this post! Do you have any Fall nail polish must-haves? Let us know in the comment section!
