NOTD: flourishing

Nail Art is not something that I get to experience a lot, but after seeing this charming Nail Art of Meg from lips so facto I could not try it myself. Although I have used some other colors and I did a little smaller flowers.but, I definitely proud of the result.

I apologize that I have only a picture of the end result and not of all the steps along the way, I just decided to take this post only after that the Nail Art allready done.

What I used (left to right)-

Sally Hansen Insta dry top coat

Barry M nail paint- peach melba

Barry M gelly nail paint- pomegranate

Revlon- knockout

Essie all in one base

Essie- blanc (which is not in the picture but any white nail polish will be good)

a tool for nail art (this specific one is by an israely brand calls 'Beautycare', and you can use a bobby pin like Meg did).

first of all I applied base coat and two coats of white nail polish and waited a few minutes. Then I painted the red flowers polish with the nail art tool, there really should not be accurate and that is what is fun. I drew a circle in the middle of flowers in pink - orange and black dot above it. This is all about patience, you have to wait a long time between each color to get fully dry, otherwise it will be a mess. At the end I closed everything with a top coat of Sally Hansen which it gives shiny and glosy finish (for those who like).

So what do you say about the nail art? do you like it? worth the investment?

Stay Clean!

Good smell in the shower is something which always makes me feel good .. Besides, always fun to get out of the shower feeling clean. In my last visit to London I bought some products of soap & glory (which unfortunately where I live I can't get this brand) and I'm really impressed with them. I love how they design their packaging and also they have pretty affordable prices which is allways nice. so I decided to review them for you.

Foam call body wash

Before I used this body wash I used rich & famous body wash also by soap&glory. While the smell of the rich & famous was a bit too heavy, the smell of this soap is very refreshing. I love the    refreshing scents soaps because it makes me feel more clean and fresh. On the package they claim that it should be "super moistrurise" but I do not notice a big difference from the other body washes I've tried. this body wash costs £ 6.50, and the quantity is huge - 500ml (for comparison, the previous body wash in this size done in daily use within six months). I think I will definitely buy it again, mostly because of the smell.

Suger crush body scrub

Speaking of smells, you can't miss the smell of this scrub, refreshing and really strong lemony scent. Previously I did not much like citrus scents but lately I am learning to be ok with it, although for me it smells a bit too strong. It says on the package that it contains brown sugar, lemon, almond oil and macadamia grains. I use it about twice - three times a week and is doing an excellent job. It is very gentle and I feel that my skin is really clean and smooth after I'm using it. It cost £ 8.00 witch is not expensive but also not very cheap.

Whipped clean shower butter

Last but not least comes the body butter. Everyone has their lazy days that they don't want to apply body lotion after the shower (to me at least happens quite a lot ..) and this product is perfect for those days. It really hydrate the skin and feels very comfortable and smooth, and I find myself using it a lot as before shaving. It has a thick, sweet odor that disappeared pretty quickly, and what little little annoying about this stuff is that every time when I'm taking some of the product from the tube it slides and splushs everywhere. It also costs £ 8.00.

So I hope you liked the post, and I will be very happy if you respond and say what you think about these products and even what you say about the new blog ..

fall Essentials

Hey. My name is Ella and I decided to open a beauty and life style blog. the blog will be conducted in both Hebrew and English. I'll be brief and straight words and post content just say that I am very excited and it's  something I was planning for quite some time..In honor of the upcoming fall I want to introduce you to my fall beauty essentials

About nail polish, I decided to choose a nude one and a dark one. the Barry M gelly nail paint in the shade-  lychee (witch is not lychee at all) is the perfect nude for me to fall. Is slightly gray and therefore suitable for the weather ever cools. Besides, the formula very glossy (for those who like) and realy opaque.

The dark nail polish is recessionista by Essie. It is purple - stunning Bordeaux, which is very suitable for the season, and this is one of my favorite polishes in general.

 when the fall is comming my skin have a tendency to dry, and I feel it especially my lips and my hands . For   my lips I use thr L'Occitan's Shea Butter. It's the only thing that was able to save my lips from dried and chipping.

To keep my hands hydrited the Antispot hand cream with organic almond oil & vitamin c is perfect. It moisturizes your hands over time, absorbed rapidly and it has a fruity smell that a little bit to heavy for summer but for fall is excellent.

with lips I decided to also go for such plummy cherry color .. Here comes the lipstick from the collection of Mac viva glam number IV. it has a frost finish, witch is not one of my favorites but this specific lipstik I finde myself send my hand all the time because it has a beautiful color. on one side dark and deep But also everyday and not too bright.

Last but not least comes the cheekmate by soap & glory. This ia a liquid blush (amazing dupe of Benefit one), which looks very natural on the cheeks and kept for hours. it is a bit more cherry and pinky than the lipstick, and though it is suitable for fall, I find myself using it all year around.

So that's it for today .. Hope you just love the first post and I'd be happy if you leave a comment.
