KORRES MAKEUP REMOVER


Make-up removing waters, when the days get hotter: I love it! The contact is cooler, lighter. That of Korres cleans, clears up, and tones the skin.
It contains a natural extract of White Tea, which has antioxidant properties, as well as a natural extract of Witch Hazel which refreshes and tightens the pores of the skin.
Online Fashion Store
As usual with Korres Beauty Product, everything is indicated very clearly on the packaging, 86.4% of the product is of natural origin and it does not contain mineral oil, silicone, propylene glycol, or ethanolamine.
Very gentle on the skin, it is also suitable for the eyes but you shouldn't go for it frankly otherwise it tingles a little bit. The first time I had soaked the cotton too much it must be said… Otherwise, Online Fashion Store am a contact lens carrier and no problem on this site, no red eyes to deplore!
The texture is watery but a little foaming (the cleaning agents are of vegetable origin) which allows to take off the impurities.
Very little product is needed, a few drops on a cotton pad are enough for the whole face. I forgot to mention its smell! The scent is very delicate and sweet.
On the other hand, it leaves a small “film” on the skin (you know like certain tonics), which I prefer to rinse with water such as Avène thermal spring water.
Online Fashion Store like it a lot, especially it's 3 on 1 side for the lazy one that I am sometimes it is very appreciable! Another product to take on vacation, despite its large capacity, the shape of the bottle means that it does not take up much space in the toiletry bag: wink:.

MAGIC OZOTIC PRODUCT

Online Fashion Store
Online Fashion Store told you about my crack on Ozotic varnishes, but I was slow to review you ... a bit because of the weather, I must admit! I absolutely wanted to show them to you under the sun so we had to wait.
We start with the 504 which I believe is my favorite (yes against all expectations). It has a purplish-blue base and full of reflections of all colors ... This is called a multi-chromatic Beauty Product or polychrome varnishFrom what I have noticed, it is the one that tends most easily towards gold/orange in certain positions (but maybe it is an impression?).
Be careful, the varnish is almost transparent and for it to reveal all its reflections it must be applied on a dark base. On me it will be a black varnish, it's the LA Colors Black Velvet with which I am 100% satisfied: opaque in a single layer, it dries extremely quickly.

DOVE NATURAL TOUCH PRODUCT

It's official, Dove is launching its first deodorant with minerals from the Dead Sea (the 1st GSM brand in this niche): Natural Touch Beauty Products.

Online Fashion Store


Ah, the Dead Sea! Unique in its kind, it makes you dream, it is a real natural Spa, with a salinity much higher than normal (so important that no fish or algae can survive, hence its name of Dead Sea 😉), and has more than 20 minerals with many properties: hydration, elimination of dead cells, beneficial actions on certain skin diseases ...

Online Fashion Store really likes the shape of the deodorant which is reminiscent of a stone or a mini menhir: wink:, practical you can easily slip it into a bag.



On the formulation side, there is always ¼ of moisturizer for maximum softness and 0% paraben and 0% alcohol.

Suddenly it is quite ideal for sensitive armpits or weakened by waxing. In addition, I would tend to strongly recommend this deodorant to people suffering from eczema or psoriasis in the armpits or in the folds (often where there is friction it is weakened). Its smell is rather "neutral", the application easy with its ball (my favorite format) but for those who prefer it is also available in atomizer format.

In terms of efficiency, I've only been testing it for a few days, but I'm perfectly satisfied with it for everyday use.

THE PARIS PALETTE Product

There is something new at  Beauty Product, the site has been refurbished for the occasion. The big event is the release of the Paris palette, a limited edition of 8 eyeshadows, 2 blushes, a highlighter, and 2 brushes. Online Fashion Store also recommended these products.
Sigma gathered 7 youtube beauty experts to create it. Each make-up is named after a Parisian monument: Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, the Triomphe, the Champs Elysées, the Palace of Versailles, the D'Orsay Museum, Notre Dame, and the Seine River.
online Fashion Store
I find the idea excellent and the palette is rather pretty and well done, but it is a bit of a shame that none of the beauty experts are French or even ParisianFor my part, I especially knew 3: Tiffanyxsparkage  and Petrilude.
Once again I appreciate the way the brand is evolving, we feel that there are a lot of projects swarming, it's great!
The Paris Palette is worth $ 59 and is a limited edition on Sigma Makeup.
Otherwise, on the brush side, new features have appeared and particularly concern the eyebrows:
online Fashion Store
The E75 brush to define and fill in the eyebrows. You can use it with powder (which I prefer for a more natural result) or gel liners.
online Fashion Store
The E80 brush was sorely lacking in Sigma's collection, it is a bottle brush, which can be used both on the eyebrows and on the eyelashes.

BLACK SOAP AND KESSA LOVEA GLOVE

online fashion Store
Last year Online Fashion Store discovered the Lovea brand  Beauty Product and a few products had left a very good impression on me, including the nutritious Shea shampoo, just perfect for me, and bought since this discovery.
Besides, I will have to tell you about the Monoï and the after-sun that I used during my vacation in Martinique in November ... it was not the right time to talk to you about sun products. well, confess!
The brand has since sent me its black soap and Kessa gloveI am a great user of these 2 products because I regularly scrub with black soap to avoid ingrown hairs and fight against keratosis pilaris. That said even without these problems the scrub is good!
The Kessa glove is very good, sometimes we have unpleasant surprises with poor quality gloves that tear or unstitch overuse. It is not with this one!
On the other hand, I found it a little "hard" during my first uses: that to erase… it erases! So I used it mostly on my legs. Since then it's been better I spend my whole body with it.
The black soap is of good quality. At the very beginning, it is so compact that it is difficult to take the desired quantity, but over time you get used to it and it becomes much easier.
online fashion Store
Moreover, it takes little, the product is very compact and spreads well once on the skin.
Composition:
About the composition, something made me tick a little (a lot), the fact of not finding olive oil in priority but sunflower oil. A priori the oleic acid is a derivative of the olive, but knowing the composition of a lambda black soap we do not find the pulp of black olives, what a pity!
Especially since on the Online Fashion Store they do not indicate the right ingredients (I had confirmation from the brand, you have to refer to what is on the packaging so the composition I gave you above).
In any case, it works well, no doubt about it, my skin was as exfoliated as with real black soap, it's just that the label with the photo of the olives is misleading in my opinion. This is not the first time that I have this criticism to make to Lovea, I had thought that the protective care oil with organic argan could have a misleading photo for an average buyer. Who would think of buying 100% argan oil? You know what I mean?

BYE BYE SOFT NAILS


Online Fashion Store had already told you about my (oh so important) problems with soft and split nails Beauty Products. I was delighted to discover the Mavala Scientifique and Hérôme Extra Fort treatments, which turned out to be very effective when I no longer believed in them. The problem with these treatments being that they contain… formaldehyde, in other words, formalin, not super “safe” as an ingredient. Because of that, it is necessary to space the cures, and I decided to space them as much as possible. In the meantime, I tried to treat them with softer products, I tried the Ecrinal nail care and unfortunately no very convincing results on me.

Online Fashion Store

If you have other “soft” products to recommend to me for maintaining my nails between 2 cures of “strong” products, I'm a fan!

Here I am, therefore, left with a new hardener, which some of you had advised me in the comments: the famous Vitry treatment.

Vitry Repairing Nail Care


This treatment is intended for soft nails suffering from splitting. Be careful if you have "brittle" but hard nails, this type of treatment is not for you, on the contrary, you have to nourish the nail, instead turn to oils.
Online Fashion Store


The composition
Ingredients: Ethyl Acetate • Butyl Acetate • Nitrocellulose • Tosylamide / Formaldehyde Resin • Acetyl Tributyl Citrate • Water • Acrylates Copolymer • Isopropyl Alcohol • Formaldehyde (2%) • Sucrose Acetate • Isobutyrate • Stearalkonium Hectorite • Benzophenone-1

How to use Vitry care?
It is treatment over 2 weeks, it is applied like a varnish on the nails. It is necessary to renew the application then every 3 days, by cleaning the nail well with a gentle remover each time.

❗Beauty tip : We protect the cuticles with an oily substance before applying any hardener (believe me, you have to go through this, otherwise they too harden).

GOOD DEALS AT SEPHORA ONLINE FASHION STORE


It's the Online Fashion Store sales shot and where all the beauty addicts are going to go is obviously at Sephora! Do not delay too long, good deals are made in the first days or even the first hours ... You can find OPI nail polish Beauty Product at ridiculous prices and lots of pretty things!
Online Fashion Store

Here is our small selection:

The Black Palette  We still find it and always on sale, here is my review. To be used absolutely with a Glitter Glue or Pixie Epoxy base!
Benefit Palettes at -40%
Make Up For Ever Smoky Palette  I have been holding back for months, I might just fall for this last one!
Eye Love Too Faced Palette at -60% .
Makeup Fred Farrugia you absolutely have to take advantage of sales to complete your kit or discover the Fred Farrugia makeup, which is worth the detour! You will find products at -50%, i.e.
Lipfusion lip plumper at -60% on a selection of colors, € 14 instead of€ 35, Fanny is transparent, she loves it, they are basic expensive so this is really worth it!

RollerGirl Urban Decay Nail Polish
Not to mention some cool Sephora products

Nail Patch
Sephora nail polish at -70% on a selection of colors,

So much for the website, in-store hunt for bargains, such as the Primer Potion Urban Decay eyelid base in its old packaging or the Urban Decay 15th anniversary palettes or the BOS 4 in some stores (depending on stock) without forgetting all of them. Christmas collections.

I wish you good business and don't hesitate to come and tell us what you took! This year I'm trying to be more reasonable on my side (but it's not won).

Beauty Products: be careful it seems that the prices in stores are not the same as on the online site, for example from 50% we go to 70%. If you want to save a little more, go quickly to a Sephora store (if you have the courage: wink :)

THE ESSENTIAL EYE SHADOW STICK


If there is a product to try urgently at Kiko it is this one: the Long Lasting Stick Eyeshadow. Bluffing by its quality, its outfit, and its low price. It competes with Aqua Cream from Makeup For Ever except that it is at a much more affordable price, so you can take all the colors!

Online Fashion Store


Online Fashion Store had only one fear: that the stick would dry out over time. Nay, my first Kiko stick eye shadows are like the first day, they have not dried (of course I took care to close well after each use).

Under the sun
In the shade
Flash
The hold is very very good, you can use it alone or as a base to "pop" a make-up and make it last longer.

I really advise you to take neutral colors, they are very easy to use: beige, black, brown, gray ... The different shades allow you to make quick make-up that lasts all day. I particularly like to apply 07 Beige on the eyelid and darken the outer corner with 06 Chocolat Doré: easy makeup Beauty Products, class, and that will last for hours.
Online Fashion Store


They are easy to blend (I find them easier to work with than Aqua Cream in comparison), after application we mix the colors to make a gradient and we blur the edges, rather with a synthetic brush. For that the Sigma Precision or the Bunny Kit Sigma brushes are perfect (I will tell you about the latter in detail soon, which I particularly like), but any brush with synthetic bristles will do I think.

Then the eyeshadows dry on the eyelid and it does not move more than an inch.

I'll try to quickly show you some makeup that I do with them alone and do a crash test at the pool .

Small detail: they are not made to go into the mucosa, they will not hold.

There are 16 shades, each one more beautiful than the other, typically the kind of product you want to collect. We hope that they will soon come out of other shades! It lacks plum and persimmon for my taste .

KHAKI VARNISH BRAND

The Online Fashion Store would like a varnish! But not just any, persimmon. In reality, it is called Brown Leather (it is the "Brown Leather") and is part of the Frozen of the Chic Chalet collection Beauty Products.
It has been with me since the start of the fall, I found the color totally seasonal.
Online Fashion Store


It's funny how different it looks depending on the light, it may indeed look brown, but as soon as a ray of sunlight tickles its iridescent reflections it comes out khaki.
Online Fashion Store
On the application side, apart from the fact that I'm not really good, it is rather easy (I like the brushes of Kiko varnishes), we get a uniform result after 2 coats, and the finish is glossy.

THE ALL-ROUNDER TO GET THROUGH


Weleda Medicinal Plant Cream
Sometimes we accumulate cosmetic products when there are all-purpose creams: Weleda's is one of them, and it is a devilishly effective Beauty Product.
The Cream of medicinal plants used for everything: it repairs, protects and softens, summer and winter. The Online Fashion Store also recommended these products.
Online Fashion Store


It can be used occasionally or daily depending on the damage caused to the skin.

Composition
Water, Sunflower oil, Lanolin, Sweet almond oil, Alcohol, Beeswax, Fatty acid esters, Hydrolyzed Beeswax, Essential oils including sweet orange essential oil, Wild pansy extract, Extract of rosemary leaf, Chamomile flower extract, Laos benzoin extract, Calendula extract Cholesterin (natural emulsifier)

Contains no preservatives, dyes, synthetic fragrance or mineral oil.

How to use the cream with medicinal plants?
It's simple, we use it for anything and everything! It treats all ailments and attacks of the skin on the face and the body:

after DIY, gardening, housework,
after exposure to cold, wind, sun
treats cracked heels, chapped lips
during breastfeeding, to soothe the nipples
softens the irritated nose from blowing your nose too much
help heal minor ailments: abrasions, burns ...


My opinion
Online Fashion Store was first surprised by the small size of the tube (30ml) but I immediately understood why: the cream comes in the form of a thick ointment, so we use very little. It is very rich and therefore oily, it is necessary to massage well to make it penetrate. So we use it rather at the end of the day or to protect the cheeks from the cold in winter a mini drop will suffice.

On the odor side, it smells… plants. I really like this smell which is very “grandmother's remedy” but I know that it will put off some of you. To give you an idea read the composition, rosemary stands out a lot.

For my part, I use it a lot on my hands at the moment, after a day in the cold or after housework. I massage well, and I also put it on the cuticles: it's perfect to nourish them! I also use it to massage my tired feet after a day (on sale right now 🙂), on the scars it helps to disappear, and the face when it has been overheated and assaulted by hot/cold as in this moment.

It really didn't steal its excellent reputation, I think it will now be one of my essentials! It's totally the kind of cream one would take to a desert island 😉.

PORE ​​CONTROL, CLARINS' PORE-REDUCING SERUM


Clarins Pore Control
Online Fashion Store
Who has never dreamed of a fine grain of the skin, to make the photoshopped models of magazines fade with envy? Except that in real life it is much more complicated than with a magic brushstroke and many of us complex.
You may have heard of the latest new product from the Online Fashion Store  (one of my favorite brands), the pore-reducing serum:  Pore ​​Control.

Pore ​​Control, the skin perfector

Pore ​​Control Clarins Serum
Online Fashion Store

Why do the skin pores expand?

There are many causes. The first: age. When you get older, you lose collagen and elastin, and your pores tend to expand, especially if you have oily or combination skin.
Indeed, an excess of sebum will accumulate on the surface of the skin, it is imperative to put a good cleaning routine in place.
Also involved: excess sun, dehydration, pollution, tobacco, heat.

Pore ​​Control: presentation & ingredients

Clarins - Serum Pore Control product shown
Online Fashion Store
Pore ​​Control will act on several levels.
The Clarins Laboratories have found that the skin around the pores showed a loss of collagen and elastin, which has the effect of accentuating the visibility of pores.
  • Extracts of organic vine flower and arouse cells: help reduce the visibility of pores by helping the synthesis of collagen and elastin
  • Tamarind pulp acids: act as exfoliation and rid the skin of dead cells
    The product contains silicones, which makes the texture super velvety.

Pore ​​Control: test and review

Let's talk about the container first: I love the look of the bottle, you don't see it in the photos but it is not rounded, it is oval (it may be a detail, but it's class ).
The turquoise color is pretty and the pump system is perfect, it delivers the right dose of product.
Now, let's take a look at the content: the serum is light and is immediately forgotten on the skin. It has a light, fresh, and delicate fragrance that is very appreciable.
Online Fashion Store

It is applied in the morning and/or evening, by making small pressures on the face. It can be used alone or before a day or night care. For my part, I think that in summer it would have suited me alone but I am obliged to moisturize my skin behind at the moment.
Note that this serum is suitable for all skin types, all ages.
We immediately have a blurring effectIn the past I have already used makeup products to blur the pores: rather very thick, it felt like the skin was suffocating underneath.
This is not at all the case with this serum and it is its big strength. The blurring effect is not coarse and it really feels like you have nothing on your skin.
Pore ​​Control Clarins before / after test
Online Fashion Store
Well, I don't know if you will see the difference before/after in these photos but in real life, I assure you of the natural "blur" effect as well as a slight mattifying effect (and I left with a handicap because I took the pictures while being super sick, an awful complexion and redness).
What I like is that it also has a long-term effect with its fruit acids and the little boost to stimulate collagen and elastin in the skin. It is therefore a good hybrid product between skincare and makeup.
Of course, it will not change your skin but it gives a nice boost. It remains to perform regular scrubs, take care of your skin, and adopt a healthy lifestyle.
Note that the product is an excellent makeup base.
The negative, because there is one: it's the price that I find really exaggerated. Do not hesitate to take advantage of promotions.

I TESTED SABON PRODUCTS

Sabon Products Shower Oil and Jasmine Body Cream in the Bathroom
Online Fashion Store
Sabon: here is a cosmetic brand of the Online Fashion Store that has been eyeing me for quite some time.
The brand has opened a shop in Val d'Europe (shopping center near my home), I went there to get an idea of ​​the range. In the center of the shop, a Jerusalem stone fountain around which are placed scrubs. We are invited to test… the scents are all super successful, what a delight!
Really, if you have the opportunity, go to the store for this olfactory and sensory experience, it's the best way to discover their products.
Meanwhile, I learn that I will graciously receive the Jasmin range for the blog (that's good, it's one of my favorites).
So I was finally able to test their products, not without having great frustrationBecause on the products sent by the brand, the one that made me want the most (the scrub ), did not support the trip and literally emptied into the package. I can tell you that the package smelled good (and was very oily).
The beauty ritual will not be complete but let's pass this first inconvenience, so I received a Shower Oil with Jasmine and the matching Body Cream.
Sabon jasmine shower oil and jasmine body cream in bathroom
Online Fashion Store

The Sabon brand

Sabon is a brand made in Israel, created in 1997 in Tel Aviv by 2 childhood friends (Sabon is the translation of "Soap"). The brand then manufactured traditional soaps in an artisanal way. But quickly, the brand developed and diversified.
Today, the brand offers a wide range of ultra sensory cosmetic products. It was established in France in 2010, the first boutique to open in Paris.
Obviously, Sabon is very interested in the virtues of the Dead Sea and offers a dedicated range.

Online Fashion Store
It is however thanks to its wide range for bath and shower that the brand became known. But it also offers care for the body, face, hair, a range of home fragrances but also products for men.
👉🏻 Note: the products are made from natural ingredients enriched with mud and the Dead Sea salts, without mineral oils, parabens, and are not tested on animals.
Finally, the packaging produced is made from recycled materials.

Shower Oil with Jasmine

The shower oils  Sabon are formulated without soap and composed of four natural oils: olive oil, avocado oil, jojoba oil, and wheat germ. They are enriched with Omega 3, 6, 7, and 9 and vitamins A and E.
A real cloud of softness envelops the skin and protects from the drying effect of limescale (for my part I use a shower filter which has saved my skin for a few years).
It lathers well, it rinses well, it smells super good.
They do not contain SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate), no parabens, or mineral oil.
But beware, the composition is also not 100% clean, unfortunately, because they contain.
We want a pump!
At first glance, the packaging is super pretty, qualitative, it's glass, it's heavy, the vintage design of the labels is lovely.
I say at first glance because let's be honest: in use ... the big glass bottle of shower oil is not practical for a penny. I was afraid several times already of escaping it in my bathtub (I can't even imagine those who only have a shower with small ledges).
Sabon jasmine shower oil poured into one hand
Online Fashion Store
We are therefore obliged to take the heavy bottle in hand (with wet hands in the shower in general ...) to run the product.
If only there was at least one push system to distribute the product ... but no ( edit: I read on the description of the site "Your Sabon shower oil is sold in a graceful 500 ml glass bottle and supplied with a pump. ”Well, no luck?).
Note that there is in any case a new, lighter, and more practical packaging version.
Body cream with Jasmine
I am quite difficult in body creams and there I must admit that Sabon was strong: the texture is awesome.
Sabon body creams are composed of 4 natural vegetable oils: avocado, borage, olive, and wheat germ, which provide omega 3,6, 7, and 9 as well as vitamins A and E.
The presentation is in a very beautiful glass jar (less problematic than the shower oil because I don't use it with wet hands), vintage style. I really like it, it's very classy.
We dip our fingers in the pot to collect the product.

And there: huge crush on the texture💙.
It is an ultra-melting butter, which immediately penetrates the skin and does not leave a greasy film. A real pleasure in the application (and it's important to have fun otherwise we tend to zap the cream part of the beauty ritual a bit isn't it?).
The fragrance is present and stays for a long time.

Online Fashion Store
This cream could be perfect ... but its composition is not. Indeed, looking more closely at the list of ingredients, we find endocrine disruptorsSo, I'm very disappointed, I have enough of a problem like this with my thyroid to add to it with cosmetics containing possibly shady ingredients.
