:: OOTD - Accessorize Tote Bag ::

Hello there! 

I am back with something that is relatively new to my blog, Outfit of the Days! For some reason, I have stayed away from them for quite a long time, but recently I've been into sharing my daily clothing picks with you, so here is another one! 




In this look, I am wearing a navy blue t-shirt dress with side pockets (which are definitely a plus!). I paired it with a pair of gold sandals, and a gorgeous tote bag from Accessorize. 

This bag immediately caught my eye because its colours make it so easy to wear, not to mention it's the perfect size to stuff all my bits and bobs during my long university days. 




I love how it incorporates the touches of blue and red with the classic brown colour - its an absolute must-have! 



I accessorised with a couple of rings from Aldo, and a neutral nail polish from 3ina No. 106. It was my very first time wearing it, and I'm obsessed - definitely recommend! 



I kept my make up look relatively simple, but added a pop of colour to the lips! I also added some extra-sassy stud pearl earrings which I'm absolutely obsessed about! 

Stay tuned for my Back-to-School Posts which will be coming up very soon, until then - stay hustlin' girls!

:: Thalion Skin Care Review ::

Hey there girls! 

About a week ago, as I was getting my nails done at Lola's Salon in Msida, a small array of products on a shelf caught my eye, which I later re-visited for a more thorough look . The brand was called Thalion. 


I went home and carried out some research about the brand; The natural ingredients, such as the main ingredient which is seaweed, are harvested with the consumer in mind, striving to provide them with beneficial minerals and vitamins. 



The owner of Lola's in Msida was kind enough to give me a couple of samples to try out and share my thoughts with you guys! 



1. Thalion Purifying Foaming Cleanser 

This gel works to cleanse and purify the skin from all the dirt and access oils which would have accumulated on the skin throughout the day. The gel is very gentle on the skin, and I personally found it to be very refreshing and clearing. I applied it on a wet face twice daily (morning and night) and then rinsed with fresh water. 

2. Thalion Algo Pur Clarifying Mask

This paste, made from seaweed and clay is perfect to purify and matify oily skin, clearing the skin and regaining the chemical balance. I applied a thick layer twice a week for two weeks, and it truly helped my skin appear fresher and cleaner. 

3. Thalion Algo Pur Mattifying Fluid 

This product is ideal for people having oily skin, as it tends to absorb the access sebum creating a matte finish day in day out. The unique formula works to balance out and offer a healthy radiance and shine to the skin. I apply this every morning after I cleanse my face, for a fresh start to the day! 


Let me know what your favourite products from this brand are; I would love to hear it! Stay tuned for some exciting Back-to-School posts coming your way in the month of September! Have an amazing week girls!

:: Aussie Frizz Miracle Review ::

Hey there girls! 

Not too long ago I managed to get my hands on the Frizz Miracle Remedy Line by the brand Aussie. I have already heard of the brand when I was invited to the official brand launch a couple months back at the beautiful The Galley at Ta Xbiex; link to the post here: https://soarella.blogspot.com.mt/2016/07/aussie-brand-launch-you-with-touch-of.html 

However, getting a hands on experience with the products is always better, which is why I've decided to share my experience of using them through this review! 




Aussie Frizz Miracle Shampoo 

The first thing that caught my attention with regards to this shampoo, was its scent! It is enriched with the scent of Australian Blue Gum Leaves, which gives it its very particularly pleasant smell! As a sufferer of crazy baby hairs, I found it to be great at taming those fly-aways and keeping my hair in place as much as possible, especially in this humid weather. 




Aussie Frizz Miracle Conditioner 

Just like its shampoo counterpart, this conditioner is also provided with the extract of  Australian Blue Gum Leaves, which are from the Australian Eucalyptus Tree, which helps to keep the frizz under control resulting in a smother look in general. I have felt the difference in the texture of my hair even after just a week of solely using Aussie shampoo and conditioner, and I greatly recommend them! 



Aussie Dual Personality Anti-Frizz Conditioning Milk 

This product is enriched with Australian Sea Kelp Extract to ensure a lightweight styling formula. It helps to tame uncooperative hair (thank god!) leaving it silky and well-mannered. Apart from using it on wet hair after giving it a good wash, I also carry it around with me and apply it throughout the day for an extra boost of #hairobedience! This has been without a doubt one of my hair staples this summer! 



Aussie 3 Minutes Miracle Frizz Remedy Deep Treatment 

After using the Frizz Miracle Shampoo, I have been applying a splodge of this product leaving it in to do its magic for about 5 minutes, and then rinsing it out with warm water. It has Australian Jojoba Seed Oil which gives it that extra boost when battling frizz, helping replenish the moisture to the hair, and in turn reducing the presence of frizz. 



My experience with Aussie has been beyond amazing so far, however I look forward to trying more products from this brand, while sharing my thoughts with you guys in the process! Let me know down below which are your favourite hair products at the moment. Thank you so much for your support! xxx

:: Look of the Day #1 ::

Hey there girls! I would first like to start this post by apologizing for not having posted for a while, the reason being that work took over my life! However I am back and better than ever! 

Yesterday I went out with my family for lunch and later met up with a couple of friends, and therefore I thought about sharing my make-up look and hair with you! I hope you enjoy it! xx


For yesterday's outfit, I decided to keep my hair down but I still wanted to have it stay out of my face. So I decided to create a middle part with a thin comb. Then I took a small section of hair from the front of both the sides, and tied it at the back of my head. I did this with a hair tie, but you can also pin it with a bobby pin too!  This looks very similar to a half up half down look, which is also one of my favourites for everyday!



I rocked some cutoff ripped jean shorts, and paired them with a plain white tank top and a bohemian looking kimono which is a very recent addition to my wardrobe. I also wore some strappy silver sandals and a couple of mid rings to tie the whole look together. 



I went for a relatively simple make-up look using the following products: 
- Inglot Freedom System Palette 
- Essence Bronze Eyeshadow Palette 
- Essence Stay All Day Long Lasting Foundation 
- Sibella Milano Eyeliner
- Essence Plump no Clump Mascara 
- Wynie Blush in 003 
- Man Fei Eyebrow Filler 
- Constance Carroll Lipliner in Clover Pink
- Essence Lip Shine in Like a Princess 

I also wanted to add in a couple of picture bloopers which my beloved sister had taken while snapping the pictures for this post! Enjoy! 




I hope you enjoyed this post! Its a first for me as I never did anything similar to this, let alone the same. But I don't plan it to be the last! Let me know what you think below and stay tuned for more posts coming up this week!

:: A Bright Summer Day @ Lola's ::

Hey girls! 

A few days ago I had my scheduled appointment at Lola's to get my gelish nails done, and I wanted a bright summery look this time. So as soon as I was shown the array of colours, a beautiful highlighted coral immediately caught my eye! 


The colour I picked is called 'Put the Top Down' by the brand Thailion. I love how bright and summery it is, encapsulating the summer vibes even better; Thumbs up for that! 









 
















Even though the colour is a bit limiting, having it last perfectly without chipping for a minimum of three weeks is a definite plus, not to mention that one can always put on a layer of topcoat and put on another nail polish if a very special occasion is coming up! 






It also looks great on, with a tan, next to the beach laying on a colourful towel and sipping on a slushie! What are your beach must-haves? x



I hope you enjoyed this short post and I'll talk to you soon! Have a great day! xxx

:: Aussie Brand Launch - You, with a touch of purple! ::

Hey girls! 

Last Thursday I was invited to attend the official launch of the brand Aussie which was held at The Galley in Ta Xbiex. Aussie is a brand of hair products promising natural beautiful hair with a flawless finish. The lines include shampoos and conditioners, treatments, stylers as well as finishes. 





The launch party resembled a get-together; apart from getting to meet a bunch of amazing people for the first time, I also got to mingle with some fellow bloggers, youtubers and other people from the local fashion industry over some amazing BBQ and lemonade!





I am very excited to try out some of these new products as I have heard amazing things about them, especially the Dual Personality Anti-Frizz Line! I will definitely let you know how that goes! 




In addition, they held a competition at the event itself, to win an amazing hamper containing all the Aussie products which have been introduced in Malta, presented by the beautiful Marija Mijovic from VJ Salomone Marketing. 


Just before we left, we were given a little goodie-bag containing some shampoo and conditioner from the Miracle Moist Line, which I will definitely be trying out and sharing my thoughts with you! 



The Aussie products as offered by VJ Salomone Marketing are currently available at Smart Supermarket, GS Naxxar, Park Towers St. Venera and Carters Tarxien. One may also find some selected products at Remi Hairdressing. However, in no time, the full line-up of products will also be available at Shoppers in Mellieha, as well as on the official VJ Salomone Marketing online shop: http://shop.vjsm.com.mt/

Let me know your thoughts about the Aussie brand and their products! Have you ever tried any of them before?
