Teeth whitening

I'm a big fan of a beautiful white smile. I tried different methods to achieve white teeth as i used to have a very ununiformed colour on my teeth. I've tried the laser process, to be honest i didn't like it. It was too tiresome, as it requires a couple of hours with your mouth open. The results didn't last long and not mentioning that is very expensive.
The other one I've tried was a gel whitening with a mouthpiece. You need to use it for at least 4 hours. I like this one, the only disvantadge i see is just a little bit pricey.
I found this website http://dramaticsmiles.com/products.htm where they promise a professional quality, much faster and cheaper. I'm honestly considering trying this one.
I don't use tooth paste whitening because they damage the enamel's colour. I don't recommend using it.

A quick tip for those who want to keep a white smile is drinking the liquids with a straw, like that the acids and the sugars from the drinks have less probabilities to damage the enamel.

You guys tell me what do you think about this subject, i wanna know your experiences and your point of views.

Facial Masks

A good facial mask is important to revitalize and improve your skin. Today I'll give you some ideas for doing it without spending money on expensive products.

First, what you need to do is to apply in your face a compress of very cold camomille tea. It's going to help calming your skin, works for dark circles under the eyes.



I suggest using your electric mixer for better results!

For oily skin with acne: Mix half of a cucumber with half spoon of maizen(cornstarch)



After/Before party: Mix 2 egg whites and apply in your skin. Improves the appearance of your skin.



Exfoliant: 2 spoons of oat with half spoon of honey. Clarify the skin as it removes the dead cells.



Dry Skin: Mix 1 banana with a spoon of honey. Awesome to protect the skin for the winter!



I'm waiting for you to share your ideas with me!

Mascara's review

My personal opinion about some mascaras that I'm trying now. Please notice, I'm not trying to persuade your decisions, every product works different on each person.



Lâncome Cils Design Pro: It's a dual mascara, first define and lenghen, second custom design the lash effect. This mascara is suppose to define and give that fake lashes look, but on me it really didn't do the job. I wasn´t satisfied with the results and my money wasn't worth it.


YSL Faux Cils: This is a volume mascara, easy application (enough 1 or 2 coats) and the smell is great. For me it works decent, not my favourite and definitely not impressed with this product.


L'oreal Telescopic: Gives a nice lenght but no volume, kinda open your look. The brush is tiny, so you can reach every lash easily. The only disadvantage i see on this mascara is that it doesn't stay long on your lashes.



HR Lash Queen Feline Blacks: Gives you pretty decent lenght and volume. It doesn't feel heavy on your eyes and the packaging is so GORGEOUS! I love this one!


Diorshow Blackout: My favourite mascara! It provides an amazing volume and lenght on your lashes. Gives you the fake lashes look. This one makes wonders for me!

Eye-shadows and gloss

If you're tired of using all the time the same lip colours and you don't want to spend money in new lipsticks, this tip is for you.




Choose a random eye-shadow and a lipgloss(my advice is to choose a pinky, pastel or pale shadow, so that's gonna give you a nice highlight), apply the eye-shadow colour on top of your hand, take 2 pumps of your gloss and rub both together. To finish apply it with your fingers or with your lip brush.

Hope you enjoy it! Have lots of fun!
