:: 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

:: Shiseido at Melita Health & Beauty! ::

Hello there gorgeous!

This past week I was given the opportunity to visit Melita Health & Beauty which is a pharmacy found in St Julians. They were having the Shiseido Beauty vs. The World Promo Week this past week, and I wished to share my experience with you all! 

In a nutshell, Shiseido is a Japanese multinational personal care company. It produces skin care, hair care. cosmetics and fragrances. 

Their make -up stand was to die for! Girls, believe me when I tell you, you HAVE to visit them! It heaven in there! 

Their eye-shadows are extremely long-lasting and  pigmented, and the variety is amazing!  Its a light weight cream consistency, making it easy to blend - I suggest you give them a visit as soon as you can - they won't disappoint, take my word for it! 

Their lipsticks blend gorgeously, and their packaging is adorable! They provide a long-lasting smooth finish, and ongoing lip hydration. My favourite is Tender Sheer RD 629 (swatched at the bottom)

The gorgeous brand representative and promoter, helped me understand all their different lines of skin care, so here are some of my favorites! 

Pureness Skincare Products  - This range focuses mainly on combination to oily skin, with the purpose of decreasing unnecessary shine and oils in the face, all while hydrating the skin. This is the line which is mainly targeted at young people suffering from acne or other skin related issues such as dryness. 

Ibuki Skincare Products help with correcting skin imperfections, dryness around the eyes, nose and mouth, and it strengthens resistance to ensure clear skin as much as possible.  

With the hotter days approaching, one must start preparing and keeping an open eye for beauty and skin care products containing SPF in them. 

A great investment this summer would be this Anti-Aging foundation with SPF 30. It blends really well into the skin, and leaves you looking smooth and covered. Its never too early to start fighting those wrinkles ladies! 

I hope you enjoyed this post girls! Let me know what you think below!
Meanwhile. prepare yourselves for Malta Fashion Week 2016 - I hope you are as excited as I am!

:: Full Face of Essence ::

Hello again girls!

It has been a while since we talked, however I am back with a post which I've been very excited to share with you! As most of you probably know by now, I am a huge (like.. really big!) fan of Essence Cosmetics. I happen to be a person who likes to test out different looks, and I try to do it on a budget. Essence offers extremely competitive prices in the market, as well as having amazing quality, which is why it is so popular! 

I will share with you my absolute favourite products from the brand, and I definitely recommend you to visit one of their stands which can be found all over our gorgeous island, and purchase a couple of these! 

About two months ago I purchased an eye-shadow palette from a local pharmacy which stocks Essence products (the cause of my sins) and I absolutely fell in love. Originally I was after the Naked Basics Palette, which don't get me wrong, it's gorgeous! However, when I was hovering over the stand I absolutely feel in love with the Essence All About Bronze Eyeshadow Palette. 

It has eight matching bronze colours which can be combined in multiple ways. Some are matte, while some are metallic which are perfect for taking you from day to night! They are very long-lasting too! 

Another thing which I'm absolutely obsessed with is their mascaras.  I haven't yet found a better one than their Plump No Clump Deep Black Volume Mascara. It gives great volume and length to the lashes, without making them stick together and clump. I've heard a lot of girls rave about the Essence Lash Princess Volume Mascara, which I've also purchased but honestly, the latter is still a winner for me! 

Yep - It deserves two pictures! It's that good! 

Anyone that meets me, would immediately realise that my ultimate obsession when it comes to make-up and beauty are lipsticks, lip liners, lip glosses, anything lip-related really! I feel the urge to buy lipsticks in all shades in brands, but obviously that's not quite doable right? 

Below are my absolute favourite lipsticks from Essence; I'm absolutely in love!
From Left to Right: Nude Love 11, Coral Calling 01, Natural Beauty 07, Adorable Matt! 14, Colour Crush 14, and lastly Barely There! 06. 

They are very moisturizing and long-lasting - and definitely worth a place on your wish list girls! 

I also like their Sheer & Shine Lipsticks; especially 09 I Feel Pretty and 13 Like a Princess! they are in the form of a lipstick, but look like a sheer and shimmery lip gloss when applied on the lips. They are not sticky, which is a must for me! 

And what about their lip liners? I have only recently discovered their lip liners while I was bored-shopping at University. These immediately caught my attention because I'm currently on the look out for water-resistant lip liners for spring and summer! 

They are easily applied, and have a very soft texture. They also last quite long, especially Femme Fatale 14!. The rose pink shade is called Wish me a Rose 12 for those interested! 

Thank you for your continuous support both on my blog and my Facebook Page! I hope you have enjoyed this post, as I loved writing it and snapping pictures! 
We have great plans coming very soon in the future with regards to Malta Fashion Week 2016, so make sure to keep updated! 

Comment below if you are simply in LOVE with Essence Cosmetics! 

Take care gorgeous people!

:: Sleek Makeup Weekend - Melita Health & Beauty ::

Hello again girls! 

Last weekend, happened to be Sleek Makeup Weekend at Melita Health & Beauty, which is a pharmacy in St Julians. However, I can honestly say that it is definitely not your average pharmacy. A lot of attention is given to make-up, perfume & skincare products!

I was given the opportunity to photograph some of the gorgeous displays of make-up and perfumery which they had in stock! I'm absolutely in love! 

The gorgeous contouring & Blush Palette which I strongly recommend!

There's more! In my opinion (and I'm sure most of you will agree), this is absolute heaven! 

I also enjoyed the array of perfumes which they had in stock. I had the opportunity to smell both the Nina Pop by Nina Ricci perfume, and the Chanel No.5 which I'm dying to purchase! I definitely encourage you to smell them out! *sniff sniff* 

I was also given the opportunity to get my make-up done by a Sleek Make-up Artist! I enjoyed every second of it, and learned so much! A tip she gave me was to apply black eyeliner very close to the lashes, and then use a smudge brush to smudge it out onto the eyeshadow. This helps to give your eyelashes a fuller look! 

In a nutshell these are the Sleek Products she used: Primer in Control Shine, Concealer in CC1, Foundation in Shell, Contouring using the Palette photographed above, called FaceForm (Light), Sleek Blush by 3, Eyeshadow using the palette I-Divine a New Day, and my Lipstick is called Lip VIP in Night Spot. 

I-Divine a New Day - Eyeshadow Palette

Sleek Blush by 3 - Blush Palette 

Before I left, I was given a small goody bag which included numerous testers I'm dying to try out! These included Clinique Moisture Surge Overnight Mask, Estee Lauder Double Wear Mascara, Bioderma Eye Makeup Remover, L'Oreal Maquillage Quad Eyeshadow Palette, Estee Lauder Hydrationist Maximum Moisture Cream, GLOV Hydro Demaquillage Quick Treat,  and L'Oreal Eye Designer in Argent Rose!

Thank you so much for your support girls, and thank you to Melita Health & Beauty for having me!

:: Charles & Ron SS16 Collection Launch ::

Hello there again! 

Earlier this week I had the opportunity to attend the launch of Charles & Ron Spring Summer 2016 Collection at their Flagship Store in Valletta (58D, Republic Street - for those interested). 

The aspect of the collection which I liked the most was the combination of black and grey, with summer colours such as yellow and orange! It was an unexpected yet exciting mixture. 

The designers, Charles & Ron worked with the colours of the Maltese Luzzu in mind, as well as incorporating the seasons' colours into the collection, resulting in a collection which will not be easily forgotten! 

The gorgeous combination of yellow, white, royal blue and black, could be seen modeled by the stunning girls Julia Ann Cluett, and Bojana Milojevic at the Flagship Store in Valletta. 

Metallics were also included in the collection, which contrasted greatly with the patriotic representation of the Maltese islands, the Luzzu. 

However. my absolute favourite part of the collection, are the handbags. I am in LOVE with them! They are very original in bot shape and colour! 

This collection definitely left me with a sweet taste for spring and summer! Make sure to check the collection out at their Flagship Store, it is currently on sale! 

Thank you for your support!
