:: Favourite SkinCare Products ::

Hello girls! 

Sorry it took a while since my last upload, but I'm FINALLY (!!!) done with my exams, and can now focus more on my blog! A while ago I've gotten a request for me to share with you my favourite skincare products, so here it is! 

Clinians Attiva Anti-stress 

1. Clinians Attiva Anti-Stress Tonico Rinfrescante - This is one of the best smelling toners I have ever used. I simply pour some of it onto a cotton pad, and dab it onto my face. Admittedly, I don't use this product often, but when I do, it makes me feel great! 

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Matt

2. La Roche-Posay Effaclar Matt - This moisturiser works wonders! It has a thick consistency, however it is very easy to message into the skin. I truly encourage you to give this one a try! 

Nivea Maschera Anti-Stres Pure & Natural 

3. Nivea Maschera Anti-Stress Pure & Natural - This mask is amazing! To start with it is very inexpensive and they have numerous scents to choose from, as well as numerous products for different skin types. This is the one I'm currently using, however the whole Nivea line is to die for! 








4. Fresh & Clean Pelli Secche e Sensibili  - These make-up remover wipes are very common, I purchased mine from a local supermarket. Prior to these, I used the Doctor's Wipes with Grape Seed Extract. To be fair, both did the job perfectly, however I couldn't get over the packaging! They also smell divine, so give them a try! 




5. Simple Kind to Skin Smoothing Facial Scrub - Simple is life. I simply love Simple! Puns Over - This facial scrub works wonders, I use it together with the rest of the Simple Line, however it was my first ever Simple purchase and I loved it from the beginning! 

6. Simple Kind to Skin Deep Cleansing Face Mask - I apply this mask using the Aqua Message Levatrucco Sponges. The reason is that the product's consistency is not the thickest, and I feel that I get the best results when its applied with these sponges rather than with my hands. 

7. Simple Kind to Eyes Eye Make-up Remover - I don't know if you've noticed yet, but the Simple range truly attracts me! I apply some of the product onto a cotton pad, and then take my eye make-up  off (obv!). Then I rinse my eyes from the remaining make-up and product since it is quite gooey, but it works believe me! 

8. Simple Kind to Skin Hydrating Light Moisturizer - Last favourite!  I currently use this interchangeably with my La Roche-Posay Moisturiser, however I truly love both of them! The former is more on the affordable side, and for that reason it might win me over when one of them runs out! 

Simple Kind to Skin Products 

I would also like to add that this post is not sponsored, even though a good amount of the products were of the brand Simple. Honestly, I just love the effect they have on my skin, and they're also relatively affordable!

I hope you enjoyed this post and found it helpful! Leave a comment below with your favourite products! Thank you for visiting Soarella, and until next time take care!

:: Quick and Easy Make-Up Look::

Hello there pretty ladies!

A few days ago I had an exam, and like most people, I stumbled out of the house in the morning in a rush. The day's priority is not to look good, but rather to absorb that last bit of information before the exam. 

However, there is no need to look like you've just fallen out of bed! A balance must be established. So today, I'm going through the very simple, and quick make-up look I wore for that morning. 

I'm going to list all the products I have used to achieve this look. It is in no way fancy, but it makes you feel a little bit more put together. I don't know about you, but feeling good bot myself makes me do so much better in life in general; especially in an exam! 

1. Essence Stay All-Day Long-Lasting Foundation
2. Collection Work the Colour EyeBrow Kit
3. ColorTrend Comb It Eyebrow Gel
4. Sibella Milano Smooth Touch Black Eyeliner
5. Essence Plump no Clump Deep Black Volume Mascara
6. Rimmel London Lasting Finish Blush 'Live Pink' No.50
7. Davis Cosmetics Wood Lipliner Pencil No.9
8. Essence Cosmetics 'On the Catwalk' Lipstick No.4

(I also used a sponge to apply my foundation which I do not know the brand to!)

A bright/dark lip tends to imply that you have put in more effort, however if you're not into it, a natural lipstick will do just fine! My go-to natural lipsticks are Rimmel London Kate in 'Pink Blush' No.6, Heng Fang Balm Lipstick No.1 or the Essence Cosmetics 'Natural Beauty' Lipstick No.7.

I hope you found this helpful, and do not shy away from trying new lip-colours! I suggest testing the waters with less expensive brands such as Essence Cosmetics or Catrice to make sure you like the look of it, before investing! 

Feel free to leave a comment below letting me know which make-up brand is your favourite!

:: 5 Things to Treat Yourself to During Exams! ::

Good morning everyone!

Firstly I would like to excuse myself for being away for so long. The reason is mainly, that I'm during exams and time is very limited right now. I'm presuming that most of you are also during exams, so this post is dedicated to you guys!

I'm going to go through 5 things which I think you should treat yourself with during this period. I hope it helps! :) 

1. Any cute stationary which you think you'd enjoy, be it new felt pens or pencils, highlighters, new notebooks, anything which would make you happy. Anyone that knows me, knows how obsessed I am over pencils and all stationary! During exams, there is nothing you can do except study, but anything colourful will definitely boost your morals! This is my current setup but feel free to do you! :) 

2. Right before exams, or during, I suggest that you treat yourself to a facial (or a trip to your hairdresser!). The reason is that if you're going to be stuck at home for about 2 weeks, you might not feel the best about yourself. Going hand in hand with this, maybe treat yourself to a good moisturizer or something similar? The two I'm using right now are the La Roche-Posay Effaclar Mat and the Simple Kind to Skin Hydrating Moisturizer. 

3. The third thing I'm finding very useful during exams, is a large blanket to cuddle in while studying not-so-exciting-things! My course mates will definitely relate to that! With the temperature suddenly falling outside, I'm sure that a warm blanket and a cup of hot chocolate won't do bad to anybody! 

4. Moreover, treat your beautiful selves to great nights of sleep. I might take this too far by sleeping 9-10 hours (I know I'm lazy!), but it's honestly the most important thing. It helps you wake up energised and ready to work - so I strongly encourage that! 

5. Lastly, allow yourself to splurge on something once exams are finsihed. That way, you'll have something to look forward to! This could range from an aquarium, to a handbag, a camera... anything you set your mind to. But having something as a reward truly helps you study with a positive vibe! 

I hope you enjoyed this relatively short post! Let me know below what you have decided to treat yourself to :) Good luck for your exams, and I'm sure you can do it!
