My Haircare Routine

Hello Girls,
Today i came to talk about haircare! 
For me as a gyaru fashion follower i need to keep my hair always in good condition since i'm always styling it, blowdrying and all that stuff. Recently i've changed the color of my hair that was really black and i wanna get it into a dark ash blond (which i haven't achieved yet), so for the first time in my life i felt i had a damaged hair and i could see how good my routine really was. 

In my routine i wash my hair 3 x per week, i've been using the Essential shampoo, the L'oreal absolut repair and the L'oreal silver one time per week each! Once every 10~15 days i use a deep cleansing shampoo to remove the excess of styling products of my hair.  I really like the essential line because is really inexpensive and comparable to  the professional products that i've used.



The next step on my routine is the hydration, i've been following(since i've changed my hair color) a Hair Chronogram that is a schedule to treat your hair. For my new damaged hair i've been following 2 hydrations and 1 nutrition per week and 1 reconstruction per month. The hydration masks i use are L'oreal Vitamino color and Tresemmé Moisture Rich and after using those i finish with Essential or Ichikami conditioners. For Nutrition mask i use the Essential Honey and Shea Butter since is full of oils and finish with conditioner. to seal the cuticles.
For Reconstruction i use the Fiberceutic Hair Botox and the next month i use the Schwarzkopf Bonacure Repair Rescue and finish with conditioner.
This helped me to keep my hair healthy even after 1 bleaching + Coloring + 1 Soap Cap to lighten the color a little bit more!


Now the leave-in products. When i finish washing my hair i apply Redken Smooth Down Heat Glide that is a heat protector so i can blowdry the hair without damaging it too much. 
When i'll style my hair with curlers and all that i use Liese Iron Make Rich Curl that's a heat protector for curlers and also help to keep the curls Also use the Liese Designing jelly when i style without heat and Lucido-L Hairspray to keep the hair style.
 Sometimes when i won't wash my hair but want it to be mosturized i spray some Liese Juicy Shower. On my roots and scalp i use this L'oreal arginine toner and some extra virgin coconut oil to do some massage, this helps to keep the hair and roots nourished and the hair to grow faster and stronger. 

I've been really loving this routine since is keeping my hair pretty and healthy!


Here goes my hair 2 days after bleaching and coloring! I haven't cut not even an inch of hair after the procedures and i think i won't need after one more week of treatment!





I hope you have enjoyed! Share with me your thoughts, routines and products recommendations!

Candy Doll Macaron Pink Lip Gloss

Hello Cuties!

Today i came to talk about a product from one of my favorites color makeup brands, the Macaron Pink Lipgloss from Candy Doll (such cute name). Is a light bubblegum pink  (but not soooo light as the tsubasa promo pictures) with really small shimmers. I got it in the new package from imomoko.com since i couldn't find this shade anywhere else with some fair price!



I really enjoy this new packaging despite the fact that i have less product than the old packaging.






 Color- A pretty bubblegum pink with a little cool tone have some reaaally small shimmers that can only be seen when you look from really close.

❤ Pigmentation- Really Pigmented can be used alone, on top of a lipstick or lip concealer.

 Texture- Really thick and sticky, but now i'm used with this feeling since is really hard to find a lipgloss that stay on my lips and it's not sticky!

 Package- The package is really cute, but as i said comes with less product.

 Finish- It provides a glossy milky finish, but sometimes it settles on little lines so i recommend to use a really mosturizing lip balm 10~20 min before applying the gloss. So your lips can be more plumped if you have dried lips like mine!

 Lasting Power- It lasts for 3~4 hours a little bit better than the average lip glosses.

 Price- Its a little bit pricey for a lipgloss, i got mine for 17 USD.


 I would say it's a 4/5 since i don't use it everyday and it's not the kind of gloss that i can apply easily at any moment and it's pricey!

Here goes some pics of me wearing it! 


 More close pic so you can check out the glossy milky lips. I haven't applied too much of gloss for this effect, if you want something like tsubasa's lips you have to be generous with the amount of gloss! hehehe

Japanese Makeup Haul

Hello girls,
After months of waiting i finally received all the packages that i've ordered! Now i can post to show you guys my japanese makeup haul! I've got those stuff from different stores, ichibankao.com and Alphabeautyuk from ebay (they have great price on dolly wink products)!


From left to right/ top to bottom:

º Canmake Perfect serum bb cream shade 2 samples! It was cheap (1 USD each sample) and since i wanna buy the light version i wanted to try out the shade.

º Diamond Lash Angel eye- Its like a must have for gyaru style. 

º Heavy Rotation eyebrow mascara in Ash Brown #03- I'll be coloring my hair soon into a Light Ash Brown shade, that's why i got it.

º Canmake Mix Eyebrow.

º Candy Doll Macaron Pink Lip gloss.

º Lucido-L Designing Air Spray- Really need some hard holder spray! I hope it works well! I know it's not a makeup to be in a makeup haul, buuut, it is the only non makeup item and i really wanted it!

º Dolly Wink Brown Liquid Eyeliner.

º Dolly Wink Feminine Girl Lower Lashes- Reminds me the lower lashes that Park Bom was wearing on the new video Falling In Love.

º Dolly Wink Eyeshadow Palette in Pink Brown 02- Pink, Gold and Brown on the same palette, i just gotta have it. 

º Dolly Wink Brown Volume Mascara.

Recently i've been a brown obsessive! Everything i see with brown colors for makeup i just get! I've been tring to tone down my look a little bit since i have really black hair, eyes and eyebrows. I got almost every product from this haul to keep up with my gyaru style!

I'll be using the products and slowly reviewing them since i don't like to review a product that i've just got. I believe you need to really use the product in a daily basis before you can say anything about it! Soo i'll be taking a long time to review them all!

I hope you guys have enjoyed the haul. I had a Dolly Wink Baby Cute #6 lower lashes to come aswell but i think the package was lost! Soon we'll have more hauls! I don't know exactly when because it depends on the Postmail.

Soon i'll be doing some makeup tutorials, i don't know yet if i'll do them in video or photos, it will depend on my camera.
Please share with me your toughts and what would you like to see in my blog!

Lioele Blooming Gloss

Hello~

Today i'm going to share with you one of my favorite lip glosses. The Lioele Blooming Gloss in Cream Orange!




 I've decided to buy this one since i wanted a non shimmery true orange lipgloss. I was thinking about the Candy Doll Milk Tea Orange, but i've seen really bad reviews on that and it has some shimmers on it, wich is something i hate in a lipgloss ( it makes the gloss look cheap and old fashion kind of style).
Here goes the swatches and on  the bare lips!






 Color: The color is a strong creamy orange color with no shimmers.
 Texture: Non sticky and provides a smooth finish, doesn't settle into lip lines. Don't drip of my lips and it's mosturizing.
 Pigmentation: Really opaque color for a lipgloss.
 Scent/ Taste: It has a peach scent that reminds me the a Spice girls peach lollipop that i used to eat when i was a little kid. Quite nostalgic!
 Package: The package is really pretty like all Lioele products!
 Price: I found this to be really affordable ( 7.50 USD at ebay), i haven't got any other colors because the other ones are shimmery!

I'll give 5/5 on this because i can't find anything bad to say about it!

Here goes a pic of me wearing this gloss on top of Candy Doll Pink Grapefruit Lipstick!

Missha Creamy Latte Strawberry Cleansing Foam

Hello Sweeties!
Today i'll be making a review on one of my favorites foam cleansers. The cute Missha Strawberry Latte!



Missha's description:
My thoughts:

This foam cleanser comes in a huge bottle and is a light mousse consistence foam with a baby pink pearly color and an addictive strawberry with milk scent! I love to use it in the morning when i don't have makeup on and don't need a strong cleansing foam, since this foam cleanser is more on the gentle side. It turns into a non bubbly kind of foam when mixed with water and provides a gentle, but refreshing cleansing to the skin.

 It doesn't leave my skin tight or dry and cleanses nicely!

 Good News-
° Big package(172ml) and really cute.
° Really inexpensive- i got mine for 9 USD with shipping and tracking number!
° Provides some cleansing without being drying.
º Pretty pearly pink color and amazing strawberry with milk scent! (i wonder how the chocolate latte smells like)

 Bad News-
° Can't be used to remove makeup by itself.
° You have to buy it online if you're not from korea.

I really enjoy this cleanser! Soon i'll be updating the blog with my latest asian skincare routine!

Etude House Cupcake All Over Color

Hello girls,
I love these blushers by Etude House so i decided to make a review on them!
 They have a really cute packaging and the colors are just amazing! They have a creamy consistence and no shimmers at all!

 I tried to go a little bit unusual with my color selection! I got a peach light tone(Peach Sugar Cake), a lavender color(Blueberry Cheesecake) and a hot orange(Orange Choux Cake).


Those babies are super pigmented!




The shade is a little bit too light for me (nc35) to be used as a lipcolor but i like to work it out with some lipgloss :)

For me those are 4.5/5- I won't give them 5/5 because the package is a little bit problematic to use! You gotta dip your fingers on it or have a separated brush with some cap on it so you can take it in your bag!
