Dove Summer Glow Body Lotion
Hi!
We already made a post about body lotion were we said that if you use body lotion every day, you’ll get a very soft skin and that you have to use more than one body lotion. So here’s one of Mary’s other body lotions: Dove Summer Glow.
Mary bought the one for fair to medium skin with self-tanner, but it doesn’t gives you a fake tan, only helps to keep your natural tan longer.
In total Mary has five body lotions to switch between and this one and the one from Garnier that we tested out already are her favorites. :)

Kérastase Soleil Lait Après Soleil
Hi!
Every summer Mary’s hair dries out from the sun, so this summer she bought Kérastase Soleil Lait Après Soleil. And it really helps a lot! When she came back from vacation her hair was very tangled, even after washing it. But after using Kérastase three of four times, her hair was much easier to comb and also looked heathier. It’s still a little dry, but this product has really helped.
It’s also very easy to use, you just put a little bit of it in your hair after you washed it and you don’t even have to rinse it out. It doesn’t make your hair oily or heavy at all.
Hair doesn’t only dry out from the sun, but from al kinds of heat. The hair dryer, curler or straightener for example. You can use a spray that protects your hair from the heat and you can still use a product like Kérastase Soleil Lait Après Soleil afterwards, even if it isn’t summer.
Mary doesn’t remember how much she paid for it, but it was definitely not too much for what it is, maybe around €15 or something like that.

Nivea Hand Cream
Hi,
Farah also has this Nivea hand cream. This one is very populair and almost everyone has it. It’s cheaper than the one from Herôme and you need to apply as much as with the Herôme hand cream. It doesn’t give that beatiful look, but Nivea heals better and your skin is a little softer too. And it prevents that your nails dry out, but Herôme is more a nail product so for real damaged nails you better use the Herôme hand cream. When you have cold and your nose hurts and is red just put a little bit Nivea hand cream on it and next day it will be better again. So really a must!

Garnier Ambre Solaire After Sun
Hi!
Wether if you burn fast or not, if you’re outside the whole day, you should use after sun in the evening.
Mary tried out Ambre Solaire from Garnier. The bottle says it’s a hydrating tan maintainer, but it makes you much browner… Not the kind of pretty brown, but a very fake tan… Maybe if you don’t tan yourself, you can use it as a self-tanner, but mostly your original skin color looks best on you…

Guerlain Nailpolish
Hi!
When Mary went shopping she tested Guerlain nailpolish out in the Ixi Paris XL and this is the result:
It only needs one layer and dries very fast. It looks very chic and pretty (Mary chose the pink color from above, it’s n° 165) but it only stays 3 days… The price is around €20, so that’s actually very expencive because it stays as long as most cheaper nail polishes.

Essence Liquid Ink Eyeliner
Hi!
Mary’s newest make-up purchage is this liquid eyeliner from Essence. Before she had this one, she used an eyepencil, but it took her always really long to put it on so she wanted to try out liquid eyeliner and Essence is always a good choise if you try out some sort of make-up for the first time, because it’s so cheap (this one costed only €2.49).
This eyeliner is very handy because of the small dip brush and it’s way easier to put on than an eyepencil.
What we don’t like about this liquid ink eyeliner is that it wipes out easily. But there’s also a watterproof liquid ink eyeliner from Essence, very handy for summer. :)
If you don’t know how to put on eyeliner in an easy way you should definitely check out this video from Michelle Phan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rc0vliuLm28

Herôme Hand Cream

Hi,
Farah has this hand cream from Herôme. It costs € 6.60, wich is a little expensive, but worth it! You only need to apply a little bit. It does absorbs very fast and your hands look directly very healty and beautiful. Your hands are 24 hours soft. And it’s very good for your nails too. It prevents that they dry out. So really a must for your hands and nails!

We Are Too Beautiful…
Hi!
… To Wear A&F!
What? Yes, that’s right, there’s a new brand of t-shirts called “WeAreTooBeautiful”. Maybe you’ve read our previous posts about Abercrombie & Fitch and than you’ll know that A&F they’ve said that their clothes are only for skinny and pretty people and they only employ good-looking people. Well we’re not the only ones who dissagree with them. WeAreTooBeautiful sells t-shirts with the text “I Am Too Beautiful To Wear A&F” because they believe that everyone’s beautiful. And we think that is true!
Here’s the WeAreTooBeautiful-webshop: http://www.wearetoobeautiful.com/
Come on, go buy one! Because YOU are beautiful too!

5 (Or Even More) Ways To Dry Your Nails Fast
Hi!
Waiting until your nailpolish is dry is so anoying, because even after an hour you can still ruin your nail art. Maybe you’ve read our post about the dry drops from Essence and than you know that it works very well. If not check it out here.
We are real big fans of Cutepolish on YouTube (if you don’t know Cutepolish, here’s the channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/cutepolish?feature=g-subs-u Check out the video’s and of course subscribe :) ) and when we saw the video about the 5 ways to dry your nails fast we were really excited!
Here’s the link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FX-ZN1xTMaA You should really watch it because there are very handy tips in it!
Another (more expensive) way to let your nails dry fast is buying a uv nail dryer. You can also hold your hands in the fridge for a while. We know this sounds ridiculous, but it’s a fast, easy and cheap way to dry your nailpolish. :) Also heat helps it dry faster (even if they say it doen’t in the Cutepolish video) so in winter you kan hold them above the fireplace for a while (make sure you don’t burn yourself!) and they’ll dry quickly too or in the summer you can just let them dry very fast in the sun. Also make sure you always aply thin coats.
