Rimmel London * REVIEW | Lash Sensational mascara and Exaggerate Waterproof Eye Definer

Hello !
so after a very long time I have a review for you ! If I may be precise it's a makeup review for the Rimmel London Lash Sensational mascara and their Exaggerate Waterproof Eye Definer, I decided to test these out based on a couple of reviews on youtube and I must say that I'm quite happy about my purchase but I'm going to explain that in my review.

So let's start with the mascara, I was on a hunt to find a really good black mascara that wouldn't clump my lashes together but still would give me nice length and volume. I don't really like to spend a lot of money on make up because I'm more of a occasional wearer than an everyday makeup junkie and so drugstore was the only way to go for me. In the past I had really good experience with the Rimmel London brand so that was my first stop, at first glance I notices this lash sensational mascara that I heard talking about on youtube. I looked at the brush and everything and it seemed pretty promising.


The bristles on the brush have different sizes, you have small tiny ones that hold on a lot of the product, I think you're supposed to use that part on your roots and then with the longer bristles work your way to the ends of the lashes. I really think that the design of the brush is quite convenient and pretty easy to use, the only thing that bothers me a little bit is the fact that even on the most outer part of the brush it's pretty thick and kind of hard to get to the smaller lashes in the inner corner of the eye. But as with everything in life if your willing to work with it it's going to work for you as well.


I got the waterproof formula so I went ahead and applied it to my bottom lashes as well, I don't think that this mascara is really that amazing in picking all those small lashes down there but as I said before it's usable and workable.


The consistency of the formula isn't too thick but also not too thin I would say it's a nice creamy right in the middle type of consistency. It applies evenly without major clumps of product. But one thing to be aware of is the fact that if you would like to build the product a little bit more the clumps are going to appear more likely and you'll have to use a spoolie to comb through your lashes.


One down side is the fact that it is so hard to remove as with most waterproof mascaras. Even my bioderma micellar water that removes the ling lasting liquid lipsticks had problems with this one but inguess i just have to get a new makeup remover.

Bottom line, for me personally as a person that has quite long and full lashes I really don't need a lot to make them stand out so I'm very satisfied with this mascara. It's nicely pigmented, the formula is great and it doesn't look clumpy as some mascaras. Another amazing thing about this mascara is the fact that it is just $7 dollars and for what it is and does I think that's an excellent price.

Another product that i got after watching a lot pf reviews on youtube is my waterproof eyedefiner in nude again from Rimmel London. It's a simple nude waterprpof eyeliner that transfers really good on to the water line. It doesn't irritaze my eyes and looks quite natural and fresh in the waterline. The staying power will vary depending on the moisture coming from your eyes but i can get about 5 hours of solid wear if I don' t accodentally rub myeyes. 


Overall i think that this is a great shade to use in the waterline ut doesn't look like a white line in contrast with your natural eye color but yet it brightens, the sometimes red irritated looking area that we all get when we' re tired. A nude eye liner like this is definitely going to make you more awake and fresh.


So to conclude on both of these i think that they are both great value for what they do for you in terms of making you look more put together but still not like you' re wearing a lot of make up. I would say that these two products are very beginner friendly because you cannot really mess it up.

Thanks a lot for reading se you in the next one :)

4 days* Lookbook | OUTFITS OF THE WEEK 13

Hi everybody,
Today i have another lookbook for you ! I finally finished all of my exams so i'm going to try to really write down a lot more blog posts for you ! For right know let's start with the outfits.

Monday

My Monday outfit is pretty casual, on Sunday i bought my first pair of boyfriend jeans and i must say that they are super comfortable, now I understand why girls love to wear them so much they are very ripped so they are kind of a statement piece that' s the main reason why i decide to go pretty simple for the rest of my outfit. I combined a simple black long sleeved t shirt with a dark grey sweater just to really let the jeans be the star of this outfit. Then to add a touch of elegance I decided to wear my golden watches with a layered golden necklace and my oxfords shoes. I really like how this outfit cam together, I definitely don't regret buying these jeans even tough my mum said that they look as if a dog tore them apart.
Tuesday
Lovely day it was, the temperature were really high and so I decided to wear my floral shorts that I combined with a dark purple tank top and a simple dark grey sweater. Also as always I'm wearing my golden watches from Primark (I really should get a new pair:D) and then I topped it all off with a pair of simple beige flats with golden details.

Wednesday

Dentist day ! Just recently I received a package containing this beautiful dark indigo blouse, it's gorgeous, it's very flowy, transparent and gives me that total boho look I'm looking for. You definitely have to wear something underneath it so i decide to wear a simple black tank top underneath it that matches my black pair of jeans. And then to bring out the purple a little bit more I decide to wear my purple floral flats from H&M. Also as my accesories I'm wearing my white D&G watches.

Thursday

The last outfit I have prepared for you this week is a little similar to Monday's outfit, mostly because I went with the same boyfriend jeans and a similar color scheme. This time I paired them with a statement sweater dress that I tucked in for a unique look. I think that this kind of childish sweater alongside with these rough looking jeans make a really nice pairing. To finish the outfit odd I paired it with a brown leather bag and a pair of matching brown flats.


And so that's it I hope that you liked another edition of my lookbook until next time :)

4 days* Lookbook | OUTFITS OF THE WEEK 12

Hi,
another week has come, and that means that finally we're getting closer to summer vacation ! This week I have another set of 4 outfits just for you.

Monday

On Monday I wanted to be very neutral so I went with simple white and grey combination. I decide to wear one of my favorite grey tops that I paired with a pair of white jeans from mango and my favorite layered necklace from Dorothy Perkins.

Tuesday

Second day of the week, I went with a very simple outfit I wore my butterfly oversized t-shirt with an oversized plaid shirt that I matched to my light blue shorts that I just got from H&M. I also decided to wear my mockingjay pin after a while to represent my inner Katniss.

Wednesday

Finally decided to wear a dress, bit because the temperature in the morning are still pretty low I went with a dress that has 3/4 sleeves. This dress comes from Promod and it was a love at first sight I love that oriental feel that it has. The burgundy color is also perfect. I matched it with a pair of black oxfords shoes and a simple cross body bag that has some camouflage green details that match the pattern of the dress.

Thursday

Recently I have bought some items from Mango because they were having some major discounts it was like 40 % off if you buy two or more pieces of clothing so I had to get something for myself. I couldn't wait to try it on so on Thursday I decided to wear my new dress that just makes me think of Kylie Jenner, it's this super simple turtle neck dress. The color of this dress is really unusual in my opinion it looks like cinnamon with little specks of black, really unique. I completed the look with my gold watches from Primark, a simple dark brown cross body bag from Carpisa and then my favorite spring/summer shoes from Lacoste.


And that's it, thanks a lot for reading until next time :)

Tomato tarte with goat cheese * RECIPE | vegetarian

Hi everybody,
remember when I've done my goat cheese tarte recipe couple months ago ? Well today I have something a little bit different for you but with a similar taste. Again it's going to be a tarte recipe bit this time now cream nor eggs are involved, it's going to be more similar to a pizza.

Ingredients:
1 packet of puff pastry
200 g of goat cheese
1 onion
3 garlic cloves
1 tbsp of coconut sugar
1 tbsp of tomato paste
2 cans of diced tomatoes
250 g of cherry tomatoes
100 g of arugula
butter
whole wheat flour
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 tbsp of dries oregano
olive oil

Cut the onion into small pieces and mince the garlic, then transfer the onion with the garlic into a pot with a drizzle of olive oil. Roast for a couple minutes on high, until golden and add some salt and pepper.

Add the coconut sugar and wait until it caramelizes. Then season with some oregano and add the tomato paste. Roast for couple minutes and add the diced tomatoes. Cook for 10-15 minutes.


This tomato sauce would probably work great as a pizza base as well.


Moving along to the tarte. Grease up your tarte mould with some butter and flour. Then add the puff pastry making sure to cut away the excess dough. Then spread the tomato sauce all over the tarte and add the diced cherry tomatoes along with the goat cheese on top.


Bake on 180° for 30 minutes, then sprinkle with some arugula on top and your tomato tarte is ready to be served !

I hope that you liked this recipe, until next time.
