Deauty Box of December!

This morning I received my December Deauty Box!!!!! Always such a great start of the weekend! :-)

As I'm at work right now, I will only be revealing the content again. So get ready for it:



Elissance - Lipstick "Attirance" - Full Size (€14.10)
Plante System - Massage Candle - Full Size (€8.00)
Maybelline - Color Show - Full Size (€3.99)
Fructis - Miraculous Oil - Full Size (€10.99)
Biotherm - BB Cream - 5ml (full size: 150ml, €10.99)



At first I was a little disappointed by the small amount of products... but after rechecking and reading I feel that it's not bad at all. It actually has 4 full size products and only 1 sample size.

Below a picture of the candle and the color of the lipstick.


Super super bright pink! I love it! :-)

Once again: Thank You Deauty!

Wishing everyone a nice weekend and happy holidays!!!!

Catrice - Prime & Fine Translucent Loose Powder

A while ago I purchased the Prime & Fine Translucent Loose Powder of Catrice. In the meantime, I have tested it and it's almost empty :-)


What Catrice says about this product:
The soft and transparent powder ensures a long-lasting matt effect without drying out your skin. Thanks to its translucence, the powder adapts to every skin tone and ensures a smooth, velvety-matt and radiant complexion when applied over make-up.

The price mentioned on the website is €5,59, which is about the price I bought it for in Kruidvat (I don't remember exactly, as I didn't keep the receipt...). I feel that this is a very reasonable price for 11grams.

The packaging is very similar to the Make Up For Ever HD Powder, almost identical.

The powder itself is very fine and light. It applies easy with a brush or powder puff. My face doesn't feel sticky after using it and looks nicely matt, without looking cakey.

Below I applied some powder on my hand to show you what it looks like:
After spreading it out it's invisible and gives a nice and smooth finish. It also fills in any fine lines, so it's a nice powder to use without looking all caked up. I guess everything that Catrice says about this product is true :-)

My face does get a little greasy after 4-5 hours....but I think that is normal :-)
I feel that the Catrice translucent powder is a good drugstore product at a nice price and the product actually does what it says it's supposed to do.

After all: I think that it's a very good translucent powder with a nice finish and will probably purchase it again. I also want to try the e.l.f. translucent powder as I've heard that it's also very good. Have you tried it yet? I would love to read your opinion.
