And hello again,
another link, or 2 links, I have to share with you. They're FashionPolish's swatches on the OPI Holland Collection for Spring 2012. I'm so in love with the colors, especially the 2 blue shimmers, that I had to post them! I will have to spend a lot of money on polishes next spring :D
Here *click* are the cremes, and here *click* the shimmers.
What do you say? Are you as excited as I am?

NOTD November 11th: Shu Uemura - Coquettish Brown
Hey there!
Today I want to show you something exciting: my very first Shu Uemura product, a nail polish! It's my very first high-end product I believe, and I love it! My best friend got me this one from her trip to Paris, thank you Lu! You're such a sweetheart :)
Now, onto the polish. It's called Coquettish Brown, and is a pretty unique color. In the shade it looks like a silvery gray metallic shade, but when you look at it in the sunlight, it looks bronzy and lilac-ish! In the sunlight the shimmer also is way more visible, because it's not a basic metallic/foil kinda thing, it has a very fine pearly shimmer, too! I don't have anything like it :)
The formula was great, it took 2 thin coats, and then it was flawless. The brush is really thin, but easy to work with. It reminds me a bit of the Essie brush.
The bottle shape of Shu Uemura polishes is also really fun, nothing I'm used to :D Like I said, my very first Shu Uemura polish!
It's so pretty for fall, I love it! Now, if I would have payed 22 Euros for it? Probably not. But I'm glad I own it and I will love to wear it again :)
Do you own any Shu Uemura polishes?
See you later!

Updated Hair Routine
Hello out there!
I've noticed that I haven't updated my routines in forever, and since the last time I showed it to you *click*, my Hair Routine changed quite often! With my latest routine I'm quite happy, so I'm gonna show it to you!
I don't do too much stuff with my hair, I wash it every other day, and when it's washed I leave it on it's own most of the time, I don't even blow-dry it. I find that this works best for my long hair, it looks very healthy most of the time. Of course I have bad hair days, who doesn't have them?
For my shampoo I use Schauma's Apple Extract Shampoo. I use this mainly on my head, and don't apply it directly to my tips. When I wash it out, it rinses everything bad out, and my hair feels clean.
In the next step I use a conditioner, Swiss O Par's Green Apple Conditioner that is. It doesn't contain silicones, and it still makes my hair very smooth and easy to comb. When my hair is wet, I only comb it with a wide-toothed comb, btw, because that's better for your hair.
I do like to use hair masks, but at the moment I don't have one I use on a regular basis. I tried out a few lately, in sample sizes, and I'm not sure yet what I want to use often. So I can't name one here.
For extra hair care, I have two things, and the first is Dove's Therapy Heat Protectant. I use this whenever I use heat on my hair. And the other product is something that I've owned for quite some time. It's Dove's Smooth & Straight Therapy Hair Milk. It contains a lot of silicones, so I only use it when my hair really needs some care.
That's already it for the products I use! As I said, it's not a lot, but I'm really content with it :)
My only problem right now is that when it gets colder, my scalp gets really dry. Do you have any advice, maybe even some DIY stuff, for a nice care for a dry scalp? That would be great!
What do you do for hair care?
Until next time!

NOTD November 9th: Kiko - 318
Hey everyone!
Here's a new polish I want to show you. I've bought it a couple of weeks ago, as you were able to see in my Kiko haul *click*. Now I've finally gotten around to wearing it, and I love it! It's perfect for fall, and I just love that mauve shade.
There were only 2 coats needed for full opacity, and it went in like butter, perfectly smooth. I love the formula of it :)
The color is a mauve, which means a purple, but I think it's pinkt-toned. When I first looked at it on my hands, it looked like a purply taupe, but when you compare it directly to a taupe you can see it's a mauve.
This color seems to be really popular, I've seen it on a lot of blogs already. And I can understand why :)
Do you like this polish?
Until next time,
xoxo, Misch

EOTD November 8th
Hi there!
Today I want to show you an EOTD! In the title it doesn't have a name, like my EOTDs usually have, and that's because of a lack of creativity. I don't know, it's not really smokey, but also not too light, it's not very cool or warm toned, and it's also not for just one season. So, no name for this one, sorry!
However, I really like this look, because it's easy to do and it's pretty! I also wore a similar look to a dance night with my friend lately :)
I started off with using NYX's Jumbo Eye Pencil in Yogurt, and applied it all over my lid, stopping right before the crease. There I applied the silver shade from the Essence quad, and blended it towards the brow and towards the lash line with the bronze shade of the quad. In the inner corner and directly under my brow I applied the light champagne shade. And for eyeliner I used the one from the quad. That means I used everything from the quad except for the darkest shade :D Mascara is Catrice's Evolution to Revolution Mascara.
On the lower lash liner I wanted it to be a tad colorful but still be cool-toned. So I applied Essence's Eyeliner Pen in 08 Touch Of Glam, a dark purple, and blended over it with the silver eyeshadow from the quad, to make it a bit more smokey.
I really like this look, do you too?
I'll will talk to you later!

Previews: Winter Collections!
Hey there!
It's the beginning of November, and that means preview time! Aaaaaaaand: It's winter/holiday collection time! And I just love love love looking at promo pics and the stuff for holiday collections! Even if I'll never be able to afford all of this stuff, I just love looking at it! And I'm looking forward to Christmas anyway :D
Now, Essence is releasing a LE called Circus Circus this December, and the LE contains a lot of golds and colors that work with both the Circus and the Christmas theme :) I'm actually really looking forward to this LE, it's made really great, and especially the double-ended nail polishes look awesome! Here *click* are some promo pics. What is weird, though, is that there's no other LE. Essence normally always releases 2 LEs a month, and this time there's just one, as far as we know at least. I think it could be because there's also the Hand Lotion LE still available, but I don't know if that's right.
For Catrice, I haven't found a single preview. Last month I already showed you the Welcome To Las Vegas LE *click*, but I didn't think that was it! Maybe there's gonna be a surprise?
Since I was already clicking through Pinkmelon.de, I found some more Holiday Collections, and I had to share the links :D I know that Pinkmelon links might not be the best, since not all of you speak German, but you can have a look at the pictures, right?! :D There are also some other links, btw. So we have:
IsaDora Holiday Red Rush Collection: *click*
Yves Rocher Luminelle Noel Collection: *click*
Yves Rocher Fruits de Noel and Fleurs de Noel Collections: *click*
The Body Shop Smoke & Sparkle Collection: *click*
Bobbi Brown Holiday Collection: *click*
Swiss O Par Christmas Hair Care: *click*
MAC Glitter and Ice Collection: *click*
Don't we just love Christmas Collections? Like I said, I already enjoy just looking at promo pics so much :D
Do you have any favorite Christmas Collections this year?
Btw: Unfortunately I haven't been able to spot the latest LEs yet. My local drugstore seems to be a bit late in the past couple of months, and also the other drugstores near me didn't get any stuff yet. So sorry I can't post about them, I'd love to!
Until next time,
