Beauty tips and tricks: Vaseline
There are over a 100 things to do with Vaseline. You can use it if you have dry lips, or as a lipgloss. Put it on your lashes before you go to bed and they say your lashes will grow. Mix it with a lipstick to make a crème blush for your cheeks. You can also remove your eye-make-up with Vaseline. Or rub on split ends between haircuts. You can also use it to tame your unruly eyebrows. Another good tip is: if you have sensitve ears, put some Vaseline on your earrings before putting them in. This will eliminate the irritation. Rub it on your teeth and voila no lipstick stains on your smile. Place on pulse points before applying your perfume. It will last longer. It also makes your cuticles soft. And the last one: Massage in to elbows and heels to soften the cracked skin.

New: MAC lipstick Diva and Viva Glam ll
Hi! I just bought Diva and Viva Glam 2 yesterday. It took me so long to decide which one I would choose. I was thinking about Faux, Viva Glam 1, Verve or Sin too. But than I decided to choose Diva and Viva Glam 2. I have Velvet Teddy from MAC and Viva Glam 2 is a little bit similar but the finish is different and I really wanted a Viva Glam lipstick. I didn't had a good bordeaux red lipstick and Diva is the perfect one, my opinion. I really wanted a satin finish or matte. I'm not a big fan of lustre or amplified finish.

American Apparel outfit
I bought it in Amsterdam with Fabienne. We were just fitting some clothes and I was trying this outfit. No intention of buying it. But when I tried it on I was in love. I asked Fabienne: what do you think about this? And she said wauw that's great! And that's when I bought my first American Apparel outfit.
You can buy the skirt on: http://store.americanapparel.net/jacquard-mid-length-pencil-skirt_rsa0387j. And the crop top on: http://store.americanapparel.net/long-sleeve-crop-raglan-jacquard-sweater_rsa0389j
It's available in two colors, grey and red/purple. I love the print and it's not something everyone will buy I think. You can wear it as an outfit or you can combine it with other clothes. The crop top with a high waisted jeans or a 'tennis' skirt. Whatever you like!
10 basic beauty tips, daily use!
1- Drink a lot of water

Fabienne's top 3: fragrances (men and women)
"La vie est belle introduces a new olfactive story, the first ever iris gourmand. The juice is made with the most precious natural ingredients, a modern interpretation of an oriental fragrance with a twist of gourmand. It entwines the elegance of iris with the strength of Patchouli and the sweetness of a gourmand blend; for an incredible scent with depth and complexity"
Notes of coffee, present in large quantities, dominate the scent.
Additional accords: pink pepper, orange blossom, jasmine, vanilla, patchouli and cedar.
The perfume comes in the bottle designed as the last editions of the Opium collection. The bottle is dark and decorated with sequins that give a glam rock look.
3. Giorgio Armani's Si (eau de parfum)
This is a fresh, sweet fragrance.. I don't even know how to describe it.. I just love it.
"The fragrance opens with notes of Sicilian Bergamot, Mandarin oil and Liquer de Cassis which is supported by a heart which bursts with Rose de Mai absolute, Neroli absolute and Egyptian Jasmine absolute. Warm undertones caress the unique chypre base notes of Patchouli oil intertwined with Blond Woods, amber and musky undertones known as Orcanox™. Finished with a sweet animalic accord of Vanille absolute which, gives this fragrance, longevity and an unforgettable sillage."
Men:
1. Yves Saint Laurent's L'Homme (Parfum intense)
I just love this fragrance for men. It just smells too good!

Angela's Top 5 Foundations
Hi y'all! I want to share my top 5 foundations with you. I'm experimenting a lot with all kind of foundations. The best tint for my skin and if it's good for an oily skin too. Also it's very important to me that the foundation last long. I don't want to look in the mirror at the end of the day and see that my foundation is all gone. So here is my top 5 foundaton list!
Number 5: L'Oreal Paris Nude Magique CC Cream
I love this foundation because it's not feeling like a foundation, it's very lightweight. Love to wear it during the summer times. It's only makes my skin look a little bit orange, and that is something I don't want with my foundation! This CC cream is to cover the redness of your skin. It's not very covering because it's not a full foundation.
Number 4: Fit Me! Maybelline (120)
This was color 120 of the Maybelline Fit Me! line. The Fit me line was intended to fit all kind of skin tones. But my skin tone was in the middle of 115 en 120. This was a little bit dissapointing. But beside that it was a very covering foundation. I really liked the foundation because it's very light weighted and not sticky at all. I recommend the color 115 if you are looking for a pink undertone. The 120 has a yellow undertone. It's really sad that the shades didn't fit me but beside that it's a good and natural looking foundation!
Number 3: Wake me up Rimmel London (100 ivory)
Love this foundation, it's covering and it suits my skin tone. It's not a very heavy foundation but also not very lightweight. It's good to use if you have a oily skin. It will give your skin a radiant glow. My skin didn't looked very shiny so that's a good thing. The foundation smells very nice too, all Rimmel Londen Foundations has a good smell.
Number 2: Rimmel London Match Perfection (100 ivory)
Yes I love Rimmel London foundation. It's not very expensive and it's a good quality as well. This was the best foundation I found from Rimmel. The color matches my skin tone so good and you don't have that orange glow on your face. It's a lightweight and good covering foundation. A perfect match for my skin!
Number 1 M.A.C. Studio Sculpt (nw20)
I'm so in love with this M.A.C. Foundation! The quality is so good and yes a little bit expensive but it's worth it. They have so many different tints, and this one is perfect for me. It's on gel base and very good for a oily skin. M.A.C. doesn't use oil in their foundations so that's good as well. This foundation is also waterproof and last very long. The best foundation so far.
This was my top 5 Foundation List. Hope you enjoyed reading it. Keep in mind every skin is different. Maybe the foundation will suit your skin or maybe not!
Much love

Review L'Oreal Paris Skin Perfection Serum
Hi y'all. Today a review about my favorite serum. It's from L'Oreal Paris and I love this serum!
I love it because of the texture and my skin feels so soft after using this. This is because of the emulsion of the pearly luster. The package looks great too! Very colorful. It smells nice too, fresh and sweet. You can buy this serum in any drugstore for €16,99.
Apply the serum before you use your day/night cream. You can use the Skin Perfection daycream or any other daycream you prefer!
