I start to somewhat repeat myself when I say you should give yourself a break from all the ingredients you put into hair, skin, body etc. I do believe in restarting your whatever regimen and giving a more natural options a chance to boost the health and condition of whatever you are trying to deal with. Resetting your haircare should start with good cleansing shampoo, that removes any buildup, additional products in the most gentle way. Whenever your hair is in need of a boost, last thing you want is to strip it too much. 

This Skin Blossom Complete Care Shampoo is the perfect option for it. Its zesty scent and texture feels not only refreshingly calming and cleansing to scalp, but also will gently lather to remove the dullness without weakening the hair strand. Bergamot, rosemary, aloe vera, lemon, lime, sweet orange, lemon grass, jojoba oil- all these work together perfectly to ensure healthy scalp and locks without compromising hair's overall health. Not only it is perfect shampoo to cleanse before giving your hair a good deep condition afterwards, it actually combats any problems your scalp may have: balances oil production, keeps dandruff at bay, stimulates hair growth. After using it few times it felt like I got back the clean, simple, 'blank canvas' hair I once had when I was a kid. If you have to choose between the two, this shampoo is the way to go!

After getting rid of all the build up, depending on your hair type, you might not feel the urge to slather a good conditioner all over the strands. When this is the case, congrats, you have normal and healthy hair, do enjoy the fullness and shine that natural essential oils in shampoo provided you. I am always reaching for the extra moisture and Skin Blossom Complete Care Conditioner is something I am confident applying all over my head, not to mention my scalp. Its creamy texture glides on easily, even though I myself would prefer even richer product on my ends. For a daily conditioner, I will use in between weekly masks, it makes a perfect product for me, but my dry hair type does require some kind of hair oil or serum afterwards. Pracaxi oil, aloe vera, rosemary and all the citruses seal the cuticle of the strands, give it volume, shine and stimulate the scalp while gently nourishing. Not to mention the refreshing and boosting zesty aroma therapy whenever you apply it. 

After I have completed the routine of using these two, I usually give my damp ends a good dose of natural oils as a leave in serum and can absolutely see the difference in absorption. Not that it is overly dry, but my hair can actually breathe and skin in everything that otherwise would have stayed on top of the hair strand without actually giving full penetration. 

You know those times, you buy something randomly without any background information or knowledge of the product. And after you get to use the 'unknown products', you absolutely adore them! These two particular hair products are the items I picked up without any intention... other than I just needed a bottle of purple toning shampoo. The other purple tube just magically came with me.

Another great Estonian company that creates amazingly pure and natural cosmetics - Moshi right in front of you. But not just 'every other' Estonian company, because Moshi is quite special. It draws attention, brings out emotions, is honestly outspoken yet really affordable. All the bottles of Moshi's products are carrying simple labels with different statements - you can easily find the one that goes by your heart the most or get yourself surprised by having the random one that will inspire you whenever you walk into your bathroom. Moshi states produly: we don't offer colourful pictures or synthetic ingredients. Too good to be true? Not at all!

I picked out two quite different products to write my first post about this sleek yet simple creator of natural beauty. One bottle holds dreamy goodness of softest body scrub and the other brings all the joy to the strands that are in need of a good moisture kick.

Sugary body scrub has been infused with wild mango and the scent of it feels just like walking under the mango trees. You can expect this scrub to nourish and deep condition your skin while gently sloughing off all the dead skin. Sea buckthorn oil along with sesame oil and olive oil, enriched with vitamins, will leave even the driest body silky smooth. Whenever I am using it, I like to take my time and rub it all over my body as long as sugar starts to melt and all the good oils get decent time to absorb into my skin.

Deeply nourishing hair oil ties together coconut oil, avocado oil, lavender and geranium - very simple, yet effective and without any unnecessary fillers that keep the actual goodness away from your hair shaft. This oil is slightly green in colour, due to deeply moisturising rich avocado oil and smells very relaxing due to essential oils of lavender and geranium. Dollop of added natural essential oils will also keep your scalp healthy and on its best behaviour! 

Usage of this hair oil is quite similar like you would do with any other hair treatment oils: you can use small amount as a leave-in hair serum on damp ends or you can distribute good amount of oil through the hair and scalp as a pre shampoo treatment. Leave it on for at least 10 minutes (2 forgetful hours in my case) and after washing it off, take your time to admire the softness of your strands. 

Bonus tip: use on dry hair as a serum, small amount rubbed between palms will tame away any frizziness or fly-aways. It will also keep your usually dry curls soft and smelling good. 

Recently I got blonde again and therefore needed to opt for much more repairing and reconstructive hair care in order to keep it healthy. Blonde or not, my hair is naturally very thick and dry, so it has always been challenging to find good hair care that doesn't cost the fortune. When I discovered D.Vinity by Carobels Cosmetics I was blown away. They have thought about every hair problem you might have and they do it professionally, delivering salon quality hair care with a reasonable price.

I wash regularly my hair with D.Vinity Violet Moon Repair Shampoo that is definitely one of the creamiest shampoos I have tried. It lathers very gently, yet manages to get hair clean while also leaving it smooth and hydrated. When you thought shampoo doesn't matter as long as you use great hair treatment, this one shuts you down. It is like a cleanser and nourishing treatment in one bottle. Full of vitamins, lipids,  proteins, Argan and Palm oils its makes sure your hair wont't be stripped or damaged even more and prepares it to the further pampering you get when applying the mask.

D.Vinity Violet Moon Repair Mask is something that will make you hate your usual conditioner. Being is creamy, but not too thick, it replaces your weak conditioner that just doesn't cut it. Using few minutes in the shower as a conditioner or leaving on longer as a treatment, it strengthens, nourishes deeply and smooths down the hair follicle like nobody's business. The process of applying this yoghurt-like mask is like rubbing freshly cut melon extracts into your locks. Yes, the whole line smells like a fresh melon to me! Not the fake artificial way, but really true to life melons. Again, it contains fatty acids from Amazon fruits, lipids, vitamins A, B and C, proteins, Argan and Palm oil to ensure your hair will be treated nicely.

The experience of using D.Vinity will make me most definitely hungry for their products. The way you get the haircare products, that usually are available only at salons,  in the most convenient way by just ordering them with a reasonable price makes it even more official.

Whenever the temperature hits the low, my hair gets even drier than it does during the summer. This only means, it is time for some heavy duty hair care that will be creamy, thick and super moisturising. I knew about Dove haircare before these one, I loved their deodorants and creamy shower gels, but never ever I had used their hair products. My loss, as rumour has it, many hairdressers have chosen Dove hair products for their personal use. 

As you may have seen, I have been loving totally natural products when it comes to my hair care. I can't put my finger on it, but odd things happen to my preferences as long as hair products go.  I always change up, but when quite fast tend to know whether I love the products or not. Sometimes the natural stuff is the best, sometimes I almost feel, my hair cries for silicones, to stay in put an silky.  To be exact, there is nothing wrong using silicones in your hair, as long as you deep cleanse your hair and scalp regularly at least once a month. Silicone free or silicone based, when haircare is good, it is good!

Winter time is definitely the time, my hair needs something more than natural haircare could offer. It gets frizzy, soaks up every single drop of moisture from the environment and I am left with huge pile of messy knots. This leads to me grabbing straightening iron, but as I want to avoid putting unnecessary heat to my hair, it is something I rarely do and tend to avoid.
This set of three creamiest hair products by Dove have saved my hair since I started using them. As long as consistency goes, they are creamy, thick and smell quite strongly when using. As you wash everything out, the scent will be gone so it isn't something overpowering at all. Dove is known for creating products with nurturing creams in it and if I had to say just three words about these products, the words would be 'creamy, creamy, creamy'. 

Shampoo is thicker and heavier than you would expect from shampoo to be. Despite that, it cleanses well, lathers up fast, leaves your scalp and hair so wonderfully clean. Have you heard the statement that you shouldn't actively wash your ends? I do it with confident when it comes to this shampoo, because I feel, it also moisturises while cleansing. 

Conditioner is the one I use always when it is not the time for the weekly mask. It isn't as thick as a mask, but comes out like a  creamy lotion. Creaminess of it stays into hair even when you use hot water to rinse everything out (I know, it is bad for your hair, but I can't help myself). Again, smells wonderful, but scent won't linger with you for a long time and that is good in my book.

Mask is a weekly thing for me. This has to be the most favourite one from all three. It is thick like a butter and you only need littlest amount to cover your whole hair. It kicks in quite fast, so you don't have to be bored at the shower when waiting your hair mask to work its magic. This one works magic within minutes! You won't feel the need for an additional hair serum or oil afterwards, the comb will go through your strands like a dream and your hair will be smooth, soft and tangle free for days. When you are in doubt or are not sure which ones to choose, get this mask! You will be amazed and next time you will get the whole line.

A lot has changed since my last 'favourites' post. While preferences change, seasons change, products also have to keep up with it and the new selection I reach for the most had to happen. Without further ado, here it is. Mostly skincare, little bit of makeup, haircare and something else.

Vestige Verdant Rare Oil Blend is the new product from the company that blew everybody's minds with their organic bioactive mask I talked about in here. Now they have stepped up their game again and came out with the luxurious organic face oil blend that combats so many skincare issues while giving the softness of cashmere. 

Rose Mira Spring Flowers Calming Toner contains floral hydrosols of orange blossom, lemon verbena, essential oils of linden blossom and rose damascene that together make this toner sweetly scented nectar for every skin type. It calms the skin right after washing while preparing it for the next step of moisturising. As much I live the calming scent I also admire how it keeps my skin less oily, balanced and comfortable.

Earthbody Control Facial Mosituriser is another facial oil blend I am keen on. It smells like a warm cosy winter evening or gingerbread cookies with hot cup of tea. It makes you feel calm and focused while taking care of any pimples, breakouts, spots and irritations. Truly luxurious and unique, it contains essential oils of clove, amber, sandalwood, tangerine and frangipani that make your complexion radiant and clear. Must-have when dealing with acne or occasional break outs!

Mádara Brightening AHA Peel Mask is one of the two face masks this wonder company recently let out. Why wonder company? There is not one product I have tried by them that I don't love. They make their products so carefully while keeping in mind the skin of European skin and using the ingredients from European nature. Peel mask is a white liquid gel that exfoliates skin throughout without any particles or scrubbing needed. It leaves skin so smoothly silky while polishing pores smaller than you remembered them to be.

Placent Activ Reinforzing Hair Treatment is a liquid placenta that come in set of ampules. One shot of it should be massaged into scalp and hair every other day after washing it. It is mainly meant for supporting the growth of hair while making it stronger. As it is quite watery, it doesn't make hair visibly stronger right away. As a matter of fact, you won't feel like you put something in your hair at all. But these do hide long term benefits in them! I noticed little baby hair coming in within few weeks and I am definitely will continue using them, in order to post full review.

KOMONO Magnus Black Black Watch has served me so well and day by day I love it more and more. As I discovered after getting it, this is meant to be for men, but still it is perfect. In its black sleekness and big dial it goes with every outfit and occasion while showing you the right time in big easy to watch numbers. Brushed matte metal case and black leather wrist band make the unique perfect mix that is comfortable to wear.

Lucy's Lotions Vitamin E & Grapefruit Lip Balm is a lip potion to soothe, moisturise and heal dry lips. Or to keep them in condition! Its fresh zesty grapefruit scent makes it refreshing to use while its natural butters and oils do hard work taking care of your pout. As it comes in a bigger tin, I use it mostly at home and I don't have to go into my stash I keep in my purse.

Serge Lutens Un Bois Vanille is a perfume full of warmth and cosiness. This mellow scent is something to wear when feeling under the weather or stressed out. It lights you up immediately! If you think it is just 'another sweet scent' out there, you are underestimating it. In its vanilla bean sweetness there is also a good amount of wintery woody spiciness hiding in it.

LiLash Puryfyied Eyelash Serum is the new old fellow I used to love and started using again. It made life so easy and allowed me to skip mascara or the whole makeup routine at times. You can't imagine what a big difference great pair of natural lashes do until you have one. This is the serum that gives extreme results!

Lumene Raspberry Miracle Mascara is the one I got just because I needed a mascara and had no clue which one to get. While mascaras doesn't last long, they are great products to alternate with. This one surprised me from the day one. It has a nice thick full brush along with black fibre consistency that makes lashes full and long. It won't smudge or transfer during the day and has conditioning arctic raspberry extracts in it.

Lucy Minerals Bronzer 'Sunny Bronze' is mineral bronzer so fine it gives the most natural bronzed complexion or warmly contoured cheeks. Its light warm brown tone and subtle sheen applies as a natural glow, yet it is greatly pigmented so little bit goes very long way. When worn as an eye shadow, it defines the lids and gives the warm natural bisquity look.

Beauty certainly doesn't only come from skincare, nutrition plays pretty important role in the condition of our skin, nails and hair. When you aren't very strict with what you put in your mouth and worry that your busy day gets the best of your meals, it is necessary to reach for vitamins and supplements. The best you can do while taking additional nutrients in a form of a tablet, is to search the greatest natural options that doesn't harm your health in any way. Lamberts for example carries a wide selection of minerals, vitamins, supplements to combat any of your needs in a professional and natural way. I started out trying Colladeen Derma Plus that is supplement formula for a healthy skin.

It comes in a box of 60 tablets that should last you for a month. What is in them? Anthocyanidin from grape seed and bilberry extracts, lutein and green tea are the three main ingredients that you put into work while taking two tablets a day. Colladeen has been especially formulated to fight against sun damage, increase natural collagen production which gives skin its elasticity, strengthen hair and nails in general. 

It was the end of the summer when I started taking these. Summer ended pretty quickly and temperature dropped literally overnight. While my skin wasn't dry or troubled during summer months, I always get so much dryness and flakiness when it gets cold. That usually messes up the skin and you can only opt for richer moisturiser and hope it will pass soon. It usually does, because your skin gets used to the colder weather and will clear up eventually. These supplements made the whole dry skin situation non-existent. I continued to use my usual moisturiser and didn't even notice the weather change as war as my skin goes. As a bonus to much smoother and healthier skin, my nails grow fast. I like my nails shorter and classier, it only means I need to cut and file them more often. I can deal with it though!

It is the middle of the fall right now and even though I am currently out of these tablets, my skin is still happy! I am only left with a bad remembrance of my skin acting up exactly one year ago when the situation was same, temperature dropping, central heating turned on, weather changing. I can honestly say, you will get longer term results with these supplements. While good skin care is important and supplements should go hand in hand with it, Colladeen will give a new breathing and a restart for your skin.

I have been in love with Mádara Cosmetics product before, but so far I had used only skincare items. I wasn't surprised when I didn't like this haircare duo at first, because I am pretty picky with my haircare. Don't get me wrong, I want to be conciliatory, but my hair just doesn't get the fact that they are just hair. I swear they have their own mind and character. Luckily disliking didn't last long at all, maybe one or two washes. Now I feel I need these two in my life at all times! Why? Read along!

Few weeks ago I visited a local fall fair where there was everything from food to clothes and of course, natural handmade cosmetics. This is usually the reason I go into these fairs, so many great and natural brands have come out in Estonia and started their brand by selling the products at the fairs. I have noticed many ones as long as cosmetic products go, but Looduse Pärl (means Nature's Pearl in Estonian) was the one that was unknown for me.

They offered a wide selection of products that included body oils, soaps, body scrubs, face creams, hair products etc. The lady gave me to smell every single body scrub and they all were absolutely delicious. Not to mention the pureness that makes them good enough to eat, I most definitely had a slight urge to taste them. As I was sure I will get the hair serum, I had to think for a minute in order to decide which scrub comes home with me. Decision was hard, because all of them were tempting. 

I finally opted for the Strawberry Sugar Scrub With Poppy Seeds and I am more than happy with it. Perfect hair product in addition to the scrub was a Hair Serum With Macadamia & Argan Oil. Both completely handmade, pure, natural, affordable and even if it is not recommended to eat them, they are pure enough to eat. What can be better?

The hair serum comes in high quality pump bottle and holds good 50ml of the product. Serum is a oil based mixture of sweet almond oil, macadamia oil, jojoba oil, argan oil, lemongrass and ylang-ylang.

It is smoothing, healing and softening while also adding much needed moisture to colour treated or dry hair. It adds a natural protection against UV rays and as a bonus gives a perfect fresh zesty scent to the strands. I have so many hair serums and oils as I go through them like crazy. My hair couldn't handle being without additional moisture, may it be a serum or oil. I must admit, I have learned to love not so natural hair serums as they do more to my hair. I know, in this case it is probably superficial as the silicones in synthetic serums create the illusion of healthier hair, but oh well.

This serum changed the game for me! It is like heaven and I have already used good quarter of it and continue until I see the end of it. And then probably order some more. It has the perfect balance of different oils and therefore won't make your hair greasy or flat, but nourishes them into the silky perfection. I add few pumps into damp hair and then let it air dry and it is guaranteed that I won't see any frizz in my hair afterwards. When my hair is dry I add a pump or two to my ends and will rock soft incredibly great smelling hair. Good tip! I usually end up putting more into my palms, so I can rub the extra into my hands and get them perfectly moisturised good smelling.

Strawberry Sugar Scrub comes in a fancy jar you can most definitely reuse after you have finished with it. Hint! Make your own body scrub into it afterwards. As said, it contains sugar that is perfect for dry skin or at times when skin gets drier, fall and winter. It also has red clay that has many minerals to tone and rejuvenate skin while vitamins A, C and E will even out the skin tone and poppy seeds help to get rid of dead skin cells. Strawberry powder has a lot of detoxifying benefits while repairing free radical skin damage, olive oil nourishes and protects skin from further damage.

From the look of it you can imagine how it smells. It smells like freshly picked strawberries! Not only makes it uplifting, but you will definitely be more persistent with your weekly exfoliation as this makes the whole experience so much more joyful. Skin will be soft, smooth and nourished as it is the softest scrub I have tried. Definitely will get some more if I run out, but then I will try the other three they carry: mandarin, grapefruit and chocolate and mint. Yes, chocolate and mint! Can it get better?

I am truly happy I discovered this small company and got few things to try from them. They do deserve so much more exposure as their products seem to be hands down, better than some of the other, more famous, natural brands in Estonia sell. I am also surprised how great the quality is as their prices isn't that high at all. I was little bit disappointed in local handmade natural cosmetics companies, because many of them have become too vain and expensive as soon as they get little more popularity, but this company definitely is a nice refreshing find that gave my hope back.

Coming in a shiny sleek pearl white bottle with so handy cap on top and containing 200ml of a creamy white uniquely and expensively scented balm it is my hero product when dealing with frizz and combating it until the next hair washing day. It is Neäl & Wolf Smoothing Blow-Dry Balm that is meant to help all hair types. Shortly, its name is SILK.

SILK puts an end to tangles and frizz. Hydrating wheat protein complex provides moisture, balance and manageability. Applied to damp hair prior to blow-drying, the result is sleek, straight and silky-smooth. Tiniest amount of the balm will do its job without any questions asked. 

Yes, it really works the best when you decide to blow-dry your hair afterwards, but I tend to skip that part very often and settle for the balm only. I take the dime sized amount and smooth it through my damp hair, concentrating on ends that get the most frizzy on me. Then I let it hair dry and enjoy what proteins have made to my hair. It gives a lot of strength and natural hold to hair, so it would also be especially beneficial for people who have fine hair strands that need a little help. 

Most of the time when hair is lacking moisture, it actually need proteins, so I find this product to be amazing when taking care of hair in need and styling them at the same time. Whenever its humid outside I get the most out of this product by applying little bit of SILK into my second or third day hair when its dry. There are no rules when using it, just what works the best for you. 

This bottle of SILK has served me well and there is still so much of it left. With the great balance between the price and salon quality of it, SILK works like a dream that everyone would love!

This one was an spontaneous buy as I didn't plan on looking into British Hair haircare at all. I had seen it in the department stores, but usually walked right past by it. There's never too much of them when it comes to my haircare routine. And of course, every one of them has its own purpose! 

First of all, it comes in a plastic bottle that has a pump dispenser on top of it. Even if it is plastic, it doesn't feel cheap at all. You can sense immediately, it is a high quality product, originally meant for a professional use. Plastic container gives a benefit of carrying it around during summer time and not breaking it as hair serums often do come in heavy glass bottles. 

Ingredients wise it has coconut alkanes, that act as a natural emollient to reduce frizz and releasing shine during long period of time, macadamia seed oil, that smooths hair and defends it from heat damage and jojoba seed oil along with meadow foam oil to add shine. 

So, overall it promises to add 24 hour time release shine, reduce frizz, protect from heat damage, cut down drying time, leave hair shiny and smooth and fight against humidity. 

I didn't have much faith in it at first and went in pretty neutral when first time using it. The sweet floral, yet delicate scent of it was the first good surprise that got me. There has been times when I apply too much as my thick and coarse hair needs a decent amount to show results. I can apply it as much I want without making my hair greasy or sticky. Its texture is very light, smooth and silky. I can also imagine how it would make a perfect hair serum for thinner hair that are prone to going flat and weighing down.

Benefits list of this British Hair serum isn't exaggerated or fabricated, it does everything they promise it would do. My hair dried much quicker, even if I let it air dry. It wasn't frizzy even after the long humid day outside, but just to be sure I always apply it the next morning on my dry hair. It smooths down any fly aways and moisturises dry ends perfectly. Hair will smell delicious and feel silkier than ever. My take on it is that it works wonders! 

The Body Shop released its beautifying oils for a while ago, but only few days ago I got my hands on their Chocomania Beautifying Oil. I kept my eye on their oils for a while, but now when they had a deal going on in Estonia, where you had to pay only 6 euros for a bottle of dry oil, I couldn't resist. I sniffed pretty much every oil they had and opted for the Chocomania version of it. It smells exactly like a great amount of dark chocolate.

I am sure that many of you know about this oil already, but to sum it briefly up, it does it all. It can be used on body, face, skin and it moisturises, illuminates and soothes. I am aware that a lot of The Body Shop's products aren't completely clean when it comes to ingredients, but this one is quite good when it comes it it. It contains lightweight blend of nut oils, including marula oil, brazil nut oil, babassu oil, sweet almond oil and aloe vera. And like I mentioned before, my choice of scents smells truly like a healthy bite of dark chocolate, little bit sweet with the hint of bitterness.

Oil bottle has tiny whole in the cap that makes the amount of oil very controllable. Few drops of oil go a long way, so you don't need much, but as it smells and feels divine, you can but more on than you actually need. That is also not a problem at all, as it is quickly drying dry oil that won't leave a residue on hair or skin. I use it mainly on body, wouldn't but it on my face, but do love few drops as a hair oil on my ends. First I noticed it is a little bit drying on hair when used it as an independent hair oil, but to hydrate between washes, it works amazing without making hair greasy! As long as applying on body, it illuminates, smells divine and hydrates deeply. Illuminating effect of it conceals any faults your skin might have and makes your summer tan appear a lot healthier and smoother. I would definitely buy it again as using a oil has never been so easy and fuss free.

I haven't posted a blog post on all the things that wait testing out or writing posts on before. Until today! You have to change things up in order to keep things interesting for yourself and for readers. Endlessly pouring rain behind my window and a hot cup of tea being my trustful friend, shall we start!

I don't like hair sprays. I just don't! I know you should use them if you just spent half an hour of your valuable time to make those lovely curls or amazing blow-out, but I can't make myself to use them. Maybe it is so, because I haven't found the right one yet? All the hair sprays I have gotten previously I ended up giving away after few uses. They always make my hair dry, stiff and plastic. Not to mention my hair does what it likes to do as it has its own stubborn brains and no hair spray would stop it! I got my hands on Macadamia Natural Oil Control Hair Spray that is filled with Macadamia Oil and Omegas 3, 5 and 7. I am not completely sure about this product yet, but I can say this may be the product that restored my trust in hair sprays. Maybe because it is full of oils and really lightweight when it come to its finish. Also, keep the humidity away from your hair do and that is very needed with this weepy summer weather we have in here.

Burberry Body Gold Limited Edition Eau de Parfum is something I refuse to put down lately even though it isn't necessarily a summery scent. It has top notes of green absinthe, illuminating peach and delicate freesia. Floral heart notes include rose absolute, iris and warm sandalwood. Base notes reveal woody cashmeran, creamy vanilla, amber and musk. Totally warm and comforting scent that has really powerful sensual twist to it. It is something you would wear at night or on colder months as its warmth with the sour sweetness can be too heavy for summer. As I said, I have found a true comfort out of this scent on these cold days and refuse to skip it in my morning routine.

Two products have cheered me up so much lately and even though there's not much sun out there, I still enjoy having brand new pair of sunglasses along with this sleek watch. To be exact I got to wear my sunglasses for 20 minutes yesterday when we had beautiful bright sun during temperature of 4'C that made me doubt what season it is. Just after that we got huge load of pouring rain on us and I had to put my sunglasses inside this nifty case it comes with. These are KOMONO Urkel sunglasses in Tortoise. They give an excellent protection and are so comfortable to wear as they are high quality. You know how some cheaper glasses can have a plastic feel? It is not a case with these ones, they are made with optical hinges and have metal core inside. Not to mention I love the warm dark brown colour of mine. My watch is also from KOMONO, Magnus Black Black to be exact. With its black genuine leather strap, stainless steel brushed matte metal case, quite big display, lightness and water resistance it has all the qualities a perfect watch should have for me. I love how the simplicity and sleekness go hand in hand with this one!

A true multi tasking product, Shiseido Face Color Enhancing Trio in RS1 has everything a face could need when it comes to makeup. Harmonized tones of highlighter, sculpter and blusher form the perfect combination in one compact to use all three separately or mixed together. RS1 shade has been described as 'Glamorous Bronze Luster' and that is so true. The blusher gives the right amount of colour to achieve that flushed summery look, the bronzer is perfect for warm contouring or just adding wamrht to the face. Highlighter with the warm golden undertones and finest sheen to it will give that perfect angelic goddess glow. This also has to be the first makeup compact I own that came with the brush that isn't a garbage. The brush actually is the softest ever and makes the product application effortless.

Some time ago, a clothing brand Seppälä came out with cosmetic line full of different products from body care to makeup. At first I didn't know what to expect from a clothing brand. What do they know about beauty products? To try them out myself, I got few items and started out with the body product, The Must Have Body Scrub with passionfruit & guava. First, they are pretty clever with the names of the products that are simple and not over the top, yet witty and catching. I wasn't even under the shower yet when I was amazed by the packaging of this body scrub. It is such a high quality plastic jar that comes with a reflecting silver lid you can use as a mirror. How snazzy is that? The product itself makes me probably scrub my body more often than I should. But is is okay as it is really gentle and creamy. The scent of it is what gets to me! It smells like an expensive Victoria's Secret product and has the whipped cream consistency with fine gentle beads in it. While scrubs like this can leave residue on skin (and I don't like residue on my body as long as products are truly natural), this doesn't. It washes off completely clean and will leave skin smooth and velvety! Well done, Seppälä!

While the weather is hectic and can't decide which it wants to be, warm or cold, sunny or rainy, my skin doesn't like this! And it takes everything out on me, like I could choose the right temperature for it. While my skin gets drier I always look into balancing products as I don't want to suffocate my skin with heavy creams when not needed. This Kris D'Amour Balancing Facial Treatment Oil has become handy to me when handling my skin's moods. I have used it only for couple of days, but I already see and feel improvement as my skin isn't so dry around my nose an mouth anymore. It has been formulated for oily, combination and acne prone skin so it should also sort out few break outs I have. I am especially impressed my the ingredient list it has: oils of jojoba, hazelnut, tamanu, seabuckthorn, apple seed, grape seed, juniper berry, lavender, petitgrain, patchouli and extracts of green, red and white teas. All to balance, nourish, hydrate and decongest the skin. Also in love with its comforting warm blend of scents I look forward to smelling whenever I use it.

Filorga BB-Perfect Anti-Aging Beauty Balm has been amazing to me in those two days I have used it! It covers well, better than other BB-creams I have tried and yet looks like you aren't wearing a makeup on your skin. Healthy dewy finish with the moisturising properties guaranteed! My 'radiant beige' shade adapts with my own skin tone perfectly and leaves it definitely brighter and more radiant. Feels almost like putting a good moisturiser on and getting the corrective part as a good surprise.

Garnier Ultra Doux Honey Treasures Shampoo and Conditioner are something I got sent as a gift and  otherwise probably wouldn't have these in my hands. Recently I have tried to take care of my hair with more gentler and natural products and Garnier isn't exactly pure. Also I am aware that sometimes really good hair products aren't 100% pure. A lot of times I am also guilty of choosing the ones that work well and aren't natural. With an open mind, I used these yesterday for the first time. They smell like milk and honey and are both really creamy and easy to use. No residue left into hair, really easy to wash out and totally fuzz free when it comes to using them. I actually liked them after one use and am sure to try them out for a little longer. They left my hair smooth and stronger. Not much to say about the nourishing part as I still needed to use my hair serum afterwards, but the strength of the hair is noticeable! Great for a basic hair care when you don't want to use loads of products, but still want great results.

Biosolis Self Tanning Spray is more like milk that comes out from a spray bottle. The thing I love the most about it is that is certified organic products with EcoCert and BIO labels on it. It has light yellow texture which makes it easy to apply, doesn't smell at any stage of self tanning and gives most natural tan on face and body within one use. You will look like you are slightly sun-kissed, nothing extreme and major at all! Actually it was a refreshing experience to use a product like this, you don't have to be scared of orange or weird shades and streaks. It can be made more intense and darker with re-applying the next day. Huge plus, it won't clog pores and even though I have used it once only I will get more into it and probably will notice even more benefits of it. I am happy with this product as it is hard to find an organic self-tanner that is actually good!

This post came out longer than I was prepared, but oh well! Have you got something new in your beauty stash you just got and is waiting for you to dive into it or just started to use?

It was probably the end of last year when I got my hair real short in order to get them healthier. Shoulder length is short for me as my hair is real thick and I in order to manage them, they need to be longer than that. Since I have always used some kind of oil treatments on my hair, my choices were usually grapeseed oil, avocado oil or apricot kernel oil. I looked into something else than just plain oils I used before. An organic blend of best selected and nurturing oils, especially designed for hair sounded perfect to me! This is where Yarok Feed Your Youth Hair Oil came into play.

When I first got it I was mainly amazed by its sleek bottle, wonderful scent and the colour of the oil itself. It is green and smells like orange blossom. I knew it does great job moisturising hair and feeding the scalp, but had no idea of the other benefits of it. 

It is marketed as an anti-aging treatment to make dull and stressed out hair alive again! Can't argue with that, but that is something any oil can do whether applied as a treatment or hair serum. This serum has so many oils in combination that deliver all the vitamins, antioxidants, fatty acids and minerals right to your scalp much faster than one plain oil can do. It is a mixture of avocado oil, apricot kernel oil, wheat germ, ylang ylang, yarrow oil, orange blossom and bitter orange. 

What it does besides giving your hair a much needed moisture kick? First of all, it should be applied from top to ends, so your scalp would get the most out of it. After all, this is where your hair starts to grow. A lot of times we are so concentrated in feeding our ends, we forget our scalp. 

This serum will remove any buildup and residue from other hair products that may sit on our scalp and hair, while hydrating, nourishing scalp and hair from root to tip. Oil being rich enough, it nurses them back alive within only one treatment and offers them safety blanket from sun, stress and heat tools. 

How to use it? Dropper it comes with, makes it so easy to use. You just need 2-3 droppers of oil. Smooth it through your hair, starting from to scalp by slowly releasing the oil. Then you give your head and hair little massage to get the oil working and distribute the oil more evenly. After all that, you can use a warm towel on your hair, because oils will work better with the heat, but it also works great without it. Depending on how much time you have in your hands, you should let it sit in your hair at least 10-15 minutes. I sometimes left it in for couple of hours while doing something else. Then you will wash it off and condition your hair like you usually do. You won't feel the need to double wash, because even though this oil is rich, it also absorbs into your scalp and hair quite good without leaving your locks greasy afterwards. You are left with healthy, bouncy, much stronger hair and the delicate scent of orange blossom may linger in your hair for quite some time. Also, my scalp felt always so comfortable and hydrated, it reminded me, it all starts from the roots. 

Now my hair has grown quite a lot and I truly believe Yarok hair serum has helped so much with it. Sometimes it almost happens without noticing. There will be just those days, I or someone else states, that my hair has gotten longer again. 

As I have been really bad with being regular with my 'empties' post I decided it is easier to follow and write when I do them in smaller patches. Here are five products I managed to save from going into trash and I literally ended last month. So this post is really in order! When it comes to makeup I have no used up products to show you, but you will get more skincare and little bit hair care. 

MÁDARA Deep Moisture Gel is the one I have talked about before and just ended the second tube of it. I love it to hydrate my skin and apply under my moisturiser when I am drier. But more than ever, it is a perfect instead a moisturiser when your skin is unbalanced and isn't that dry. I always reach for it when it get warmer and even hot outside. It keep oilier areas at a bay and doesn't let skin get dry on other areas. It has such a pleasant and fresh herbal scent and liquidy consistency of this gel goes on like a much needed nectar for your face. I reviewed this and other MÁDARA products in here.

Nurme Lavender Facial Toner is meant for problematic skin, but everyone would actually benefit from it. It is 100% natural and I am absolutely in love with their facial toners. Lavender one I particularly love when I have some breakouts to calm down or at night time in general. It soothes, tones and cleans every trace of face mask or face cleaner off your skin. It comes in a spray bottle and that makes it easy to apply it before moisturising-step as a spray refreshment. The only thing I would love more than this already is, would be the bottle. It is fairly small and I go through it so fast. Also I would prefer a bottle to be without the pump as I love my toner on cotton round and whenever I spray it on cotton it gets everywhere else and that's a waste.

Caru Skincare Cucumber + Lime Organic Toner is created for normal or combination skin. It is extremely balancing and detoxifying and has much more power than any other toner I have used. When I first got it, I couldn't get over how beautiful this vintage bottle was. Chances are I am going to clean it and keep it just use it in the future when I happen to stumble on the beauty products that have a not so good packaging. The other thing was a scent of it. It is so refreshing and comforting, just like fresh cucumber salad with the twist of lime! With the combination of cucumbers and limes, it soothes an calms skin immediately, yet leaves pores so clean and small with the cleaning effects of lime. Even if it is labelled as a toner for normal to combination skin, it is so gentle, I would suggest it to everyone with the benefits of clearing up skin, boosting it and balancing its pH levels at all times.

Silver Tree Argan Oil Thairapy Ultra Hydrating Hair Mask is a huge jar full of really moisturising hair mask. I got it for a while ago from local Estonian beauty store I.L.U, when I was actually in a search of a new hair serum. I knew nothing about this brand when I picked it up, but was nicely surprised after first use. Since then it has been my must-have hair once a week hair mask and already got myself a new one. It is really thick and so moisturising yet doesn't leave hair heavy or greasy. It restores hair within few uses and you can actually feel, yourlocks are in a better condition. As just adding moisture doesn't cut it for my hair, it must also has to add some strength, because I won't struggle with the breakage anymore like I did before finding this mask. Since I have tried ever so expensive Macadamia Deep Repair Hair Mask which great, but is quite a splurge when it comes to its price. These two are really similar when it comes to hair results afterwards, but this one is so much cheaper.

LUSH Mask of Magnaminty is a face mask for problematic skin on face and back. I only used it on my face. Being deep cleansing, toning, exfoliating it takes care of your pores and blemishes you might have. I was so amazed by it at first and love the tingling sensation at first because of its natural peppermint oil, but after a while this mask made me sick. The scent got so repulsive and strong for me, I just applied it to use it up and knew it works wonders. It does really heal any blemishes and cleans up pores, but there's too much peppermint for my taste. Probably will give it a try in the far future again, but for now I will stay away from it.

I have always thought that graduation gifts could be something that lasts and something that you could keep. Or something that could be sentimental and for your soul. After all graduation is the new beginning and graduate's new very important step into life. Why not keep our closest ones in mind and give them something nice to make those steps easier and more fun. Here are some of the things that I chose. It is always great and much cheaper to make something yourself, but when in lack of inspiration I hope this selection helps you.

Both jewellery items come from Pi-Ret Jewelry who makes everything by hand and ties her whole heart and passion into every piece of jewellery she makes. Necklace is called White Lilac and contains long row of fresh water pearls complimented with textured baroque pearls which makes this piece completely unique. This necklace is definitely something to keep and something that would light up any occasion, casual or something special. It can be worn long or layered short. The Brunette earrings are something I have talked about before. These delicate pieces are made of kunzite quartz wrapped in gold filled wire. The warmth of the stone would warm up any complexion and wearing these would have the effect of lightening up any kind of mood you might have.

Hair straighteners come from Cloud Nine. I am a true fan of my regular iron and find it is the easiest tool to create curls, waves or straight sleek hair. Now they came out with The C9 Touch which has mineral plates that glide smoothly through hair. It also offers instant automatic heat and chooses the exact temperature for you- you just have to choose between higher and lower heat option.

Clarisonic Mia2 doesn't need an introduction. It is a professional sonic facial brush for clearer, smoother and healthier skin. I have had my Clarisonic Mia for over a year now and can't be happier with it. It has changed my skincare routine upside down and in a better way of course. Every time I use it, my skin feels so smooth, polished and it creates a perfect canvas for next skincare steps: toners, serums, moisturisers. 

Versace Bright Crystal Absolu Eau de Parfum more intensive version of infamous Versace Bright Crystal which is totally feminine and delightful. This perfume is fresh, glamorous and seductive with its notes of magnolia, pomegranate, raspberry, mahogany, musk, lotus, peony and amber.

River Island Floral Quilt Makeup Bag could be quite affordable yet sleek gift to anyone who loves beauty. This good sized bag comes in dusky pink shade with a soft floral quilt finish that compliments its golden zipper and splash free black lining. Golden River Island plate on the bag just adds this makeup bag more luxurious feel.

Floral Silk Scarf  comes in light shades and would be a perfect addition to any outfit in order to keep you warm on a chilly day or just spice up your clothing with floral patterns and silky texture.

Time for another 'beauty favourites' post. While I have been using so much new and great products lately that I haven't talked about yet, I needed to cut down the amount of products I love and bring you the best of my favourites. So these thing made the cut, are totally trustworthy and basically my heroes when it comes to beauty care. Again, I must admit that I have undetectably become a junkie and an addict for natural beauty products. While I do have some things in my beauty stash that aren't completely natural, I noticed that these are mostly natural and safe to use for everyone. 

Organic Surge Moisture Boost Shampoo and Conditioner are both the products that surprised me the most. These are so affordable and free of all the nasty stuff that aren't good for your hair. Shampoo is so gentle yet lathers well and cleans hair like nobody's business. It is enriched with aloe vera, olive leaf and grape vine extracts that keep hair moisturised and silky. Lemon peel extract seals the hair cuticle to maintain its shine and keep hair frizz free. Thyme and fennel seed extracts work to strengthen and prevent breakage. While shampoo cleanses without stripping hair, conditioner is with its thickness and creamy texture hydrates and nourishes even the driest locks. I am so pleased with these products and have managed to get my hair into better condition than I have ever dreamed.

Unique Haircare Leave-In Conditioner is a certified organic spray conditioner with a low pH-value and milk proteins that protect every individual hair strand from heat stress, colour fading and environmental damage. I truly recommend it to everyone, but especially to people who need to improve their hair condition, lock in moisture, but are worried about their hair weighing down or going flat. This adds perfect amount of luxurious moisture and strength to hair, but also gives surprisingly great volume and body to it. I have used it in damp hair before styling and in dry hair when I need to refresh my locks between washes. Both ways work wonders!

Vestige Verdant Face Mask is a miracle in a jar. It is produced in my own little home country, Estonia and has become a huge thing in here. I can't argue with the fact that it is amazing! It comes in huge jar that lasts basically months and months. It can be used daily and is suitable for every skin type and skin condition as it has so many benefits. It deep cleanses and moisturises, improves skin texture, revives blood circulation, heals allergies and overly sensitive skin, diminishes acne, relieves stress and restores natural pH balance of skin. As has only organic minerals and bioactive humic acid I truly believe in every statement this mask has made! It goes on smooth, looks absolutely black and starts to itch on skin soon after waiting around. You can actually feel it working and pulling all the nastiness out of your skin. It is messy to remove, but not impossible. I have found it is best to wash it off in the shower so this has become my daily face routine just before getting into shower. My skin has become a lot clearer, smoother and balanced since I have used it regularly.

Selexir Peace Balm has been my another must have wonder product when it comes to skin care. It is and intensive cosmetic salve that specifically soothes distressed, irritated and sensitive skin areas. Its formula is bursting with goodness as it contains 21 highly concentrated natural ingredients. It improves skin's texture, balances its hydration levels and strengthens skin's natural barrier. I have used it around my mouth which was my problem area when temperature changes got the best out of my skin. I have also used it on cracked hands and lips just before going to bed and woken up to perfectly healed skin. I am especially impressed with the amount of time it works. You literally apply tiniest amount of it on your problem area and wake up to beautifully healed skin in the morning!

NOVExpert Eye Contour Care is a moisturising lifting and decongesting eye cream with hyaluronic acid, cucumber extracts and cornflower in it. It is deeply hydrating, yet so light and absorbs fast without laving any residue on the eye area. It has significally reduced my dark circles and promises also to combat any puffiness and dryness. It relieves redness and discomfort when I have my common spring time allergies and feels comforting in the morning right after waking up. I also love the fact that it is hypoallergenic and 100% natural.

I do plan doing a full detailed reviews on some of these products, so bare with me. When you want me to write a review on the product that got your attention, just let me know!

It is still great summer going on here and that affect definitely my wish list, where everything looks light and bright. I have been lurking on ASOS so much lately and therefore many of my beauty wishes happen to be from their selection. Another wonderful and very comparable website is Siison. I have talked about it before and get regularly so many good ideas from there.

1. OSKIA Skincare Bedtime Beauty Boost, is a nutri-active regenerating and nourishing night cream. I love night treatments as they are highly effective and I love them even more when they are natural and full of minerals, vitamins, omegas, essential oils and peptides just like this one.

2. Sleek Makeup True Colour Lipstick in Peaches and Cream, looks like a perfect bright coral nude lipstick. I have heard that Sleek lipsticks are so pigmented, long lasting and true to colour. No wonder it is tempting me every since I know its existence.

3. Ted Baker Treasured Orchid Makeup Bag, is a floral printed, has a glossy finish, zipper and even smaller inner compartment. Ted Baker knows the world of makeup bags and is always creating new and prettier ones.

4. Moshi Wild Mango Body Scrub is made in Estonia and extremely nourishing smoothing for your skin. It has a sea buckthorn oil full of vitamins and smoothing sugar for extra sweet body exfoliation. Plus it promises to leave body delicious and silky!

5. L'occitane Angelica Protective Lotion SPF 15 is a fresh light textured moisturising day lotion infused with real organic angelica from France. I can imagine how perfect it would be for morning skin routine with its freshness, protectiveness and boosting effect.

6. Bourjois Cream Blush in Nude Velvet looks like a perfect nude coraly pink shade. I am more and more into cream blushes and can't fancy them enough. They are fuss free to apply, stay on very natural and leave such a polished look on cheekbones. 

7. Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Liner in Nude is a creamy long lasting liner in a variation of colours. I would opt for a nude shade to brighten up the eye area and waterline whenever needed.

8. The Balm Shady Lady Vol 2 Eyeshadow Palette. Apart from cutest packaging The Balm tends to have wonderful quality and colour payoff so this eyeshadow palette would be amazing for autumn. These shades are perfect for everything: from neutral eye to more dramatic look.

9. Jenoris Pistachio Oil Hair Treatment is full of Omegas, vitamins and fatty acids. Perfect for frizzy dry hair as a pre styling product or nourishing oil treatment before washing your hair.

10. SteamCream 3in1 Moisturiser Scarlet Tin is a lightweight all purpose moisturiser in a sleek handy tin. All SteamCream moisturisers are handmade from unrefined steam and floral extracts. Not to mention that all their tins are to die for!

Time for my second beauty wish list! Some of these things I know that are good, some of these I would just like to try out and hopefully love to pieces. Like always, things I have been longing for quite some time and things that would be impulsive buys.

1. Shan Rahimkhan Shiny Silver Treatment with Argan Oil & Quinoa is a conditioning treatment mask for hair with pearl and silver pigments to get a cool look and intensified colour and shine.

6. Liz Earle Botanical Shine Nourishing Hair Oil is a lightweight luxurious hair oil that tames frizz, adds shine, smooths hair, protects against heat and reduces blow drying time significantly.

7. Soap & Glory The Fab Pore Facial Peel is an intensive pore refining mask that exfoliates and peels off any dirt, grime and dead skin from your face and especially from problem areas.

8. Daniel Sandler Watercolor Fluid Blusher (in shade Passion) is a water based blusher, therefore it blends very easily, gives perfect seamless and natural blushed cheek with the great lasting power.

These are the current beauty objects I have my eyes peeled on. Have you tried something from these? If you have how did you get along with it?

I have no staples when it comes to shampoo and conditioner, I usually use what I get my hands on and that's about it. I never tried Aussie and thought I will give it a try. Confused in the shampoo isle I didn't know which one to pick as everything from Aussie sounded good enough to try or even love.

I decided to go with their Mega line and give it a go. When it was time to use it I got a bit hesitant. I was particularly worried about the shampoo and thought it might be a bit drying for my strands as it promises breathtaking cleanliness and to remove any build up from hair. Sounds a lot like a clarifying shampoo you wouldn't use very often, doesn't it?

I brushed these thoughts off my shoulder and trusted the statement that these products are good to use daily. After all it promised to cleanse carefully and leave hair bouncy and sleek without any build up.

I knew that many people love Aussie because their products smell good, but as I wouldn't imagine that shampoo and conditioner could smell that gorgeous. It was like visiting candy shop instead taking a shower and in a good way, they don't smell synthetic or plastic but rather very pleasant.

Shampoo is available in here.

It leaves hair smooth, silky and tangle free afterwards.

Conditioner is available in here.

As you might understand, I love these two. They are simple, fuss free and easy to understand for me and my hair. As my first experience with Aussie was pretty good I will definitely make sure I am getting Aussie's other hair products next time and try them out to see if anything can beat the Mega line.
