Sunday #7 - It's new and we want to try it...
Hello
beauties,
Today is
the day! It’s Sunday! It’s the day for our ‘It’s new and we want to try it’.
But before we start, tell us how was your week? Mine was long (I feel like I’m
living in Rihanna’s song …work, work, work) but the good news is that the
weather in Portugal was phenomenal (hot days, cold nights…just how I like it).
This warm weather made me want to use bright colors and I discovered a
beautiful pink lipstick by H&M, perfect for my mood. Did you find something
worth it, this week? Maybe a good eye pencil, a perfect hydrating cream? I feel
like every week I find something that I love.
On a side
note, I just finished my second book from Deborah Harkness trilogy. I’m so
excited to know that they´re filming the series (perfect cast, let me tell you).
And you? What are you reading? (Two weeks and I probably will be in an
anonymous non-book reunion. I don’t have any plans for my next book. (I'm accepting suggestions)
Here I am
rambling, I feel I’m always doing this. Sorry! We are here for our dose of
de-stress class (or how I like to say, better than Yoga class) and see what
this week brought to us.
This week,
we chose the website Beautylish*. Honestly, I didn’t know this website, but now
that I know the beautiful things that they have, and that they make deliveries
to my country, which it’s always good - I will probably order a few things.
So, with no
more delays, here are our picks…
*it’s always
good to remember that we don’t receive nothing from the websites we choose.
# Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner & Huge Extreme Lash Mascara - Big Shots - $25
This set includes Stila's number one
selling waterproof liquid liner (0.016 oz.) and the Big shots mascara (0.44 fl.
oz.). According to the information on the website, the eyeliner is perfect to create
a variety of eye effects (from thin, precise lines to thick dramatic looks).
The formula dries quickly and won't smudge. The fine tip offers accurate
application for everyone (novices to pros).
The Huge Extreme Lash Mascara promise to
give the biggest, boldest, blackest-black lashes. (Big promises!!)
This topcoat with glittery candy pink shimmer, caught my eye a few weeks
ago and I’m obsessed. I will buy it as soon as I can. This is a limited-edition
collaboration between Jouer Cosmetics and Jeffree Star. You can wear it alone
for a sheer veil of shimmery iridescence or over your favorite lipstick. It’s good
to know that this has Jojoba and coconut oils to hydrate the lips.
# Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Lips - $34
These matte
liquid lipsticks are available in 10 shades. Hollywood Lips glides like a gloss
with a curved applicator that nourishes lips with anti-aging actives, drying
down to a soft-matte finish with a velvety light formula. In the pictures that
I saw, they seemed to me very pigmented.
Normally I’m
torn between two or three colors but I need to be honest: I would like to have
all! All the lipsticks have a shade that I like.
(Between us, if my choice were necessary for the world not to end, I would
have to choose shimmering coral pink but on the other hand I like cool pale
pink too….the humanity would be doom).
# IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Blush - $24
This blush is a best-selling, award winning and now its infused with
optical blurring pigments.
Bye Bye Pores technology instantly
diffuse the look of pores and discoloration while delivering sheer, buildable
color. Let’s not forget that it’s talc-free and perfect for all skin tones and
types, it’s loaded with anti-aging, skin-loving ingredients including silk,
hydrolyzed collagen, antioxidants and peptides (giving you a youthful flush of
brightening color). It’s available in
three shades, all of them pretty but my heart goes to the Je ne sais quoi (even
the name is pretty- I love French, but I don’t understand more than ten words).
In order:
-
Je ne sais quoi
-
Naturally pretty
-
Sweet checks
# Bumble and bumble Save the Day - $45
Unfortunately,
this product (from this website) it’s not available for delivery to Portugal.

concentrate is infused with Camelia Oil and UV filters to help repair past
wear-and-tear – and fortify against future damage.

Okay, now let me tell you I already tried
a cleansing oil (not this – or this would not appear in this segment) and I

# Bastide Rose Olivier fragrance -
$32 (10ml/0.3 fl. oz.) $130 (100ml/3.4 fl. oz.)
Last week we talk a little bit about some
of Bastide products. The Rose Olivier it’s their bestselling fragrance and it really
caught my eye. In the south of France, a rose bush grows intertwined with the
olive tree. The result is a nuanced rose unlike any other and this scent takes
on woody notes from its olive lover.
This brand has other two fragrances: Ambre
Maquis and Neroli Lumiere. As I tell so many times, my favorite scents are
lavender and neroli so I’m excited to try this brand.
What makes us talk about a brand and try
their product it’s almost every time their philosophy. Bastide’s is based around simple,
quintessential virtues – plenty of water, plants, light, and balance. What’s
better than this?
You can buy it here or in Nordstrom website.
# Herbivore Botanicals – Moonfruit superfruit night treatment - $58
As always, we reserve some space for
brands that we discovered on Instagram. Today we are going to talk about
Herbivore Botanicals. After seeing so much interesting products on their
website, we choose two that we want to try. According to their website, each ingredient is included for a therapeutic reason. No
animal testing is conducted.
The Moonfruit Superfruit night treatment it’s a multi-tasking
night treatment that in theory (I still didn’t try it so I can’t give my
feedback) feeds skin with superfruits, gently resurfaces with fruit
enzymes and hydrates deeply with a blend of exotic butters and bio-identical
vegan Hyaluronic Acid all while you sleep. It’s perfect to use before going to sleep. It looks so good!

reducing antioxidant rich Green Tea, blemish fighting White Willow Bark,
soothing Aloe Vera and toning Witch Hazel. It cost $39.
