update

I just wanted to apologize quickly for not posting for so long. So far, this month has been a terrific beauty-month and I got soooooo many lovely things (it's my birthday month), plus I won some products (yay!). As soon as everything has arrived I will post pictures and reviews, although I might get a little lost in all the nice things! :)

Discovery of the day: handmade organic exfoliating soaps by savon du midi (2.30 euro each)

(smells are engraved on the soap; in french ;))

honey-almond -> yummy, I want!

essie & O.P.I. haul

My nailpolish order from ebay.com arrived today so here's some pictures and a quick review.

left to right: O.P.I. Elephantastic Pink, Essie Cruise Control, Essie Anniversary Gala, Essie Carousel Coral, Essie Shelter Island

thumb: Essie Shelter Island, index finger: Essie Cruise Control, middle finger: Essie Anniversary Gala, ring finger: Essie Carousel Coral, pinky: O.P.I. Elephantastic Pink

The disappointment is definitely Essie's Anniversary Gala. It's so sheer, you can barely see any pink. It's basically just shimmer for your nails. The other ones are all good, the O.P.I. has the best coverage though. I would also call this my favorite together with Carousel Coral and Shelter Island. Cruise Control is a little to plastic-barbie-ish-looking, but it's a nice polish still.
So I guess I have enough bright summery nailpolishes so far. Now I'll go for the more serious items like NARS blushes and stuff! :)

orange fizz swatches

Here is the promised picture of orange fizz, this is just one coat. I'm still thinking about painting another one on top of it...

I ordered some Essie and OPI nailpolishes, I will write about them as soon as they arrive!

chanel orange fizz

Today I was in a true shopping mood but this is only beauty item I got. I got shoes, tops and a new haircut!
As for summer polish, I was kinda after Dior's "bubble gum" but after swatching it I decided it was too bright for me. But it's basically sold out around here!
So I saw this last bottle of orange fizz at the store and I decided it was the better colour of the season for me than the Dior. Swatches will be up tomorrow!
