LOTD March 18th: Baby Pink

Hi everyone!
Today I'm wearing a pale pink lip combination :)
I first applied the p2 lipstick in 020 sunset boulevard and then the Manhattan Tasty Lips in Chinese Litchi.
my bare lips
only the p2 lipstick
with the manhattan gloss on top
enhanced lip wrinkles, see?!

I'm not so sure whether I really like it, because as you can see from the pics, it's lighter than my natural lip color. I don't really like looks that are lighter than my natural lip color, because that makes my lips greasy and gross easily. :P I'm not really wearing this often, but I wanted to show it to you anyway. I'm sure you can tell how it enhances my lip wrinkles. The p2 lipstick is very opaque and has a shiny fnish, btw.
What do you think of it??
xoxo, Misch

Storage Tips

Hey there!
A couple of days ago I was visiting IKEA, and found some cool storage things, so I guess I was gonna show you these, as well as some other storage pieces.
At IKEA I the first thing I got was a grey plastic thing that's  normally used to put forks, knives and spoons into it in different sections. You can use it to put your nail polish into it, as I used to do, or powders, lipglosses, everything you'd like to. One of these things costs 50 cents, and they will fit most drawers, so they're great.



Then something I also got from IKEA is another piece like that, but it's clear plastic and it's higher. I will put some nail polishes into it, because that way you can organize your polishes by color or brand, because the thing is sectioned. It was 2,99 Euros.
Then for my brushes I'm also using something from IKEA, it's a vase, but I don't know it's name or how much it was, sorry, because it's a little old. I put a bow around it to make it cuter, but just do it the style you like :) I put some deco beeds and stones into it, you can get these at any deco store :) The beeds will hold all of the brushes, and it just looks cute in your room.
Then there are two little drawer thinhgs that I got from KIK. I normally don't buy stuff there, but these storage things were pretty cool :) They're available in different colors, and 2 sizes. They're plastic, too, and I like them to put my blushes and eyeshadows into them. I also use the little one to keep my lipsticks.


That's how I store my nail polishes right now:
What do you use to store your make-up? I'd like to know!
Until next time, xoxo, Misch

NOTD March 14th: Panda Nail Art

Hi there!
Today I have a new nail art post for you :) I just lately saw this video by CutePolish *click* with this gorgeous and adorable panda nail art, and I just had to do it! :)
 I didn't put the pandas on all of my nails, only on a few, but I painted the rest of the nails with OPI Jade Is The New Black which is perfect for the panda theme, don't you agree?! I'm not gonna tell you how I did it, it's exactly the way that is shown in the video :) I only added some black dots to the eyes because I thought that it was prettier :)
Don't you just love these adorable pandas? I do :)
I'll see you soon!

Review: Catrice Ultimate Shine Lipstick 060 Teddy Brown

Hi everyone,
today I have a review For you guys :) It's about a new product by Catrice from one of their new lipstick lines. It's called Ultimate Shine, and the color I got is 060 Teddy Brown.

Information:
- contains 3.5 gramms
- costs 3.99 Euros at most drugstores
- is also available in a lot of other colors
Color & Coverage:
It's a brownish red color that has a cream finish. Even though it's pretty shiny, I wouldn't really say that it's a nude every-day color, although I'm wearing it during the day. It's more of a muted red. For some people it could definitely be too dark.
It's pretty opaque, shows the color easily as a swatch and also gives a nice pay-off on the lips. You have to be careful that it doesn't get uneven, though. It's shiny and glides on really well.
Wear:
Since it is a pretty dark and obvious color, it's easily visible when it fades. It lasts pretty long, but since the finish is shiny, it's not too longlasting. It doesn't stay when you eat or drink anything, but with normal wear it lasts about 2 hours, at least on me.
Bottom Line:
I really like this lipstick :) It's a pretty color, I'm happy with the wear and anything, so it's great. If you like the color, you might wanna give it a try :)
Did you try it out, too?
I'll see you soon :)

Review: Rival de Loop Hydro Make-up Remover Wipes

Hey there!
Today I have a new review for you! Here you go:
Information:
- Hydro 3 in 1 mild make-up remover wipes
- for dry skin
- alcohol-free
- I have it in the small size: 10 wipes for 0,50 Euros
- available at Rossmann
- supposed to remove your make-up and to refresh your skin

Positives:
- price
- great travel size
- nice fresh scent
- removes the majority of your make-up
- doesn't dry out your skin because it's alcohol-free
- leaves a slight moisturizing feeling
- wipes are quite large, you could even use only half of them
- they're quite soaked and not dry or anything
Negatives:
- not avail;able everywhere
- smudges dark eyeliner but doesn't completely remove it
- it's not enought to remove a full face crazy make-up art piece, that could be a little to much
(- you might not like the scent/feeling)
I really like these wipes :) They're great for an every-day useage, and you can take them with you when you travel :)
Did you try these out?? Tell me about it!
xoxo, Misch

Spotted: The New Catrice Permanent Line :) + LEs

Hey everyone,
I just have a few pictures for you, because today I spotted the new permanent line by Catrice and 2 LEs :)
From the new regular Catrice stuff I got a few things, but I'll post that extra after I took some pics for you :) It's gonna follow the next days for sure, I just want to get to know the new products a little. :)

I'm just gonna show you some pics from the LE counters, because I didn't buy anything. I really liked the "Enter Wonderland" by Catrice, it had a pretty design and some cute colors, but nothing I didn't own yet. I was temted to buy the highlighting powder, but since I got a few highlighters lately (especially today in the Benefit Finding Mr. Bright kit *click*) I decided to leave it at the store. Click here to see the products on Pinkmelon.de
The Essence Whoom Boom! LE was basically a little too trashy for my taste. No offense or anything, it might be your taste, but it was a pass for me. Click here to see the products on Pinkmelon.de
There was also the new "better than gel nails" kit available, but I didn't get this one, either.
I was told that the new Essence permanent line would arrive in the next couple of days, so that'll come soon, too :)
Did you spot these counters yet??

Haul & Sneak Peek: Benefit Finding Mr. Bright

OMGHHKP (did anyone of you see that video by JuicyStar07 *click*?!) I'm so excited! I just found a box in the mail by Douglas :) I ordered it a while back and it's finally there, the Benefit Finding Mr. Bright kit!
These are my first Benefit products ever, and this kit was just perfect for me, plus, it contains 4 smaller sizes of very well-known Benefit products! The kit contains Erase-Paste in Medium, Girl Meets Pearl, HighBeam and PosieTint. The kit was 29 Euros at Douglas.de, and with the Promo Code 155DEDM you'll get 5 Euros off your order, so it's only 24 Euros. What a great deal, huh?! You don't even have to pay shipping costs within Germany, because the kit normally costs more than 25 Euros :) Really cool! I;'m so excited to try out all of these products, and I'll review them for sure! I just wanted to give you a little sneak-peek ahead of time :)
Did you already try out any of these things? Or are you planning on getting the kit? Let me know!
xoxo, Misch
