Tag: Most Used Summer Things

I've been tagged by the lovely Aly, one of my favorite bloggers. Without further ado, listed below are my most used summer things.


 MOST USED NAIL POLISH
Tough one! I just love a lot of colors for summer and I definitely have more nail polishes than the number of weeks in summer, so there's no one most used nail polish, but I'll pick my fave of them all, which is, the Wet n Wild mega last salon nail color in I Need A Refresh-Mint.


I also recently found out that my review of this polish has been posted on the Wet n Wild VIP members' blog. This nail polish, hands down, has the best formula, and staying power as far as drugstore polishes go, and the color is the most gorgeous mint I've ever seen. I most definitely enjoyed having it both on my hands and toes during this summer.

MOST USED PERFUME/SCENT
I've been using two actually, alternating them every single day this summer coz that's how much I like them. The Victoria's Secret Pure Seduction, and Bath & Body Works Be Enchanted. I got them during the semi-annual sale last summer. They're both sweet and fruity scented and I am quite pleasantly surprised about how strong and long lasting they are. They smell like perfumes, well, maybe not expensive luxury ones but they're definitely on par with budget perfumes like Guess, Calvin Klein etc. 


I got them both for great prices during the sale but even if they were regularly priced I would have gotten them, they're just worth it.

MOST USED LIP PRODUCT
I am not a makeup person. I experiment now and then and mostly I buy makeup to review for my blog but normally I rarely wear makeup. So the only lip product I used was Vaseline, and sometimes a Nivea lip balm.


MOST USED MASCARA
I am always trying out new mascaras and currently, I'm using the CoverGirl lash blast volume. It gives good volume with a little bit of length. Overall it was a pretty good mascara and I might buy it again.


MOST USED BLUSH
Definitely my NARS Orgasm blush. I only wear this all through the year ever since I discovered it. This blush just looks natural on me and gives me just the right amount of color without looking intense/festive. I think it would look good on anyone since it's such a universally flattering color. And no, no matter what anyone says, this blush cannot be duped.


MOST USED FOUNDATION
My most worn this summer is the Maybelline Dream matte powder. I just love it so much that I always have a backup. Not the most long-lasting powder ever but it gives a very nice matte airbrush finish that looks great on camera without looking cakey.


MOST USED HAIR PRODUCT
I have two which I've been using a lot this summer. The Schwarzkopf Smoothing Lustre Lotion, and the Parachute Therapie hair oil (I got this one from my last India trip. We Indians just cannot live without oiling our hair regularly). They're both great products and totally worth the money.


So those are all of my summer faves. Hope you enjoyed reading this lengthy post. Please feel free to do this tag if you like it. Hope you all had a great summer!

Top 12 Things to Buy from Kruidvat own Brand

 We've been seeing inflation here in the Netherlands since October last year. It's just plain ridiculous to see something that I paid 5 euros for a few months back is now around 7 euros or maybe more. That doesn't sound like a lot but when you buy about 50 things (food, groceries, toiletries, etc.) for your house, it all adds up and overall you are paying 50 to 100 euros more than what you were paying previously. But unfortunately, not a lot of us have seen this increase in our pay and many people have even lost jobs during and after the covid crisis. So it's only natural for us to want to save our money wherever we can. But that said we also do not want to compromise on quality. And that is where the idea for this post comes from. Kruidvat is a drugstore that is similar to CVS/Walgreens in the US. Products sold here are mostly hygiene products, cleaning supplies, makeup, and over-the-counter medicines. I have been shopping here for hygiene products for years. By now I ...

15 Must Watch Chinese Youth Dramas That are Artistic Masterpieces

I stopped watching youth dramas (dramas usually set in high school/college backdrop) over a year ago since I felt like I was getting too old for these. I find most of them quite juvenile like I am watching the Disney channel. However, before I completely stopped, I tried watching more than 30 popular youth dramas and I had to drop most of them because they were just too mediocre, with bad writing, and bad acting/editing. But I also found some gems that were just too good and should not be missed by anyone, doesn't matter how old you are. These dramas have something more than just being a funny/silly high school/college drama. They have some kind of an x-factor to them that makes them quite unique in my opinion. Be it the story, the casting, the cinematography, the costumes, the locations/settings, etc. all together create a magical on-screen experience that I have not found in the other youth dramas that I have seen. Listed below are my top picks from the Chinese youth drama genre ...

Wet n Wild Megalast Salon Nail Color 218A I Need A Refresh-Mint Review and Swatches

OK, let me just start off by saying something totally unrelated,  Pinterest  is so friggin addictive!!! The reason why I've not posted yet this week is coz I've been there all the time pinning this, pinning that, pinning almost everything that could possibly be pinned online. I know, I have a problem here, so I decided not to pin too much today and do a blog post instead. My first Wet n Wild mega last Nail Color was in the shade I Need A Refresh-Mint. And the packaging was one of the reasons. The back of the bottle clearly shows the shade name and the ingredients on a peel-open sticker. There's the logo of the company embossed on the other two sides. The top shows us that they have introduced a ManiCurve Pro Brush which I must say is very impressive. Looks very chic, sturdy, and promising for a product that is so inexpensive. The brush is mostly compared to the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure nail polishes but I never tried those so I cannot compare. I really love this...
