Winter is still here and it makes our hair weak and faint … not only severe winds and cold temperatures damage it … Every day we apply numerous masks, repairing treatments and leave-in conditioners, some of them do more harm than help. But I know one useful and cheap conditioner to make your hair look fantastic: Hydrate Botanica ($20).

It is extremely important to keep your hair hydrated during cold and dry weather periods, that is why you have to apply the following conditioner after each hair-washing procedure. Botanica conditioner consists of a seven ingredient Naturina Complex, that nourishes sand revives our hair.

I love my hair after Botanica since it is soft, strait and so alive.

When I saw an advertisement of this mascara for the first time I was really impressed since they promised me to set the world on fire and to make my lashes doll-like. And I believed them because miracles DO happen, especially when your eye-lashes are not bat at all.

My disappointment was huge and sudden and long. The Double Extend Magnifier Mascara from L’Oreal is not cheap mascara at all, it costs a lot and turned to be a huge waste of money. Frankly speaking its ceramide conditioner was nice but it was a real challenge to apply at least one layer of mascara on it and, of, course, there was definitely no 60% extension of lash length. I don’t recommend you buying this mascara (((

All products come in a space-age look and their colours are based on the planets, stars, and comets. In a couple of words, the line is kitschy and chic. Prices are not high, so you can always make such presents to your friends! They will be delighted )

I am always interested in L’Oreal novelties and cosmetic decisions. So their new collection of eye shadows called HiP Duos was not an exception. HiP means  High Intensity Pigments, and I was very glad to found out that they meant it. As a rule, eye shadow is perfect while testing it at the store, but then it wears off as quickly as it’s applied.

But I must say it is not the situation with L’Oreal. The HiP Duos are really incredible and reliable! The colours are intense and bright, the price is good.  Definite buy.
