Another wishlist.


Lately i've bought a lot of perfume, and it's very addicting. Because i want to buy more & more, i've smelled the chloé perfume yesterday and oh my god it smelled so amazing!! I want to have these so bad, maybe i'm asking it for my b-day. The other perfumes also smell amazing, i want these also. I've been wanting the ralph lauren perfume for 4 years now, i don't know why i've never bought it but i think it's about time i will.

With regular use, hair growth is progressively slowed down.



I tried all 3 products. I was very excited because i'm always searching for some great hair removal products which are not very painful. So i was very happy i got the opportunity to try out these products. First i've tried the 24 facial hair removal strips, i thought they worked very good. It removed all the hairs, and it didn't hurt that much. After that i've tried the brazilian & bikini wax kit, they have all kinds of shapes in the kit which is very funny. I haven't tried these, but i think it's nice that they're in the kit. About the wax, you have to warm it up for 1 minute in the microwave. Which is very quick, than you have to place the wax on a tiny spot where you want to remove hair. Wait for 30 seconds, and then remove it with your hands. I thought this was so much better than removing the hair down there with strips, it wasn't painless but it didn't hurt me as much as other hair removal products. After that i've tried the 24 hair removal strips on my legs, they worked good just like the others!


I think Nad's is a great company, they use natural products & none of the products are tested on animals! So i'm very positive about these products, if you're looking for good working natural hair removal products, you should definitely check them out.

Steam cream review

Yesterday i received a jar of steam cream, i was very excited to try it.



What they claim:


STEAMCREAM represents the latest concept in skincare. Using a revolutionary steam-infused manufacturing process, STEAMCREAM provides a long-lasting, intensive and effective form of skincare that can be used on face, body and hands.
STEAMCREAM have pioneered the use of a steam technique to create this unique, gentle and loosely-bound emulsion. This looseness allows each ingredient – including a moisturising and soothing oatmeal infusion, orange flower water and healing lavender oil – to breakdown and penetrate areas of the skin that other creams find hard to reach.
Packaged in a compact, flush-lid aluminium tin featuring unique and collectable designs, STEAMCREAM is a perfect on-the-go product – convenient to slip into your bag, take to work, to school, on holidays or to the gym. And it’s hand luggage friendly at just 75g!




  • multipurpose cream uniquely formulated using pure, unrefined steam for maximum absorption.
  • High quality skincare for all skin-types.
  • Locally produced using fresh, natural and traceable ingredients.
  • Funky eco-friendly packaging designed in Japan and decorated with limited edition collectible designs.
  • Handy-sized tin for on-the-go lifestyles at an affordable price.



What i think about steam cream:

I think steam cream is a great product, it moisturized my skin & made it feel very soft. Also i've tried the steam cream on my arm where i have a little bit eczema, and it helped very good. The steam cream smells very nice, it reminds me of lush angels on bare skin. Steam cream is for all skin types, and there's 75 gr. in it. Which is pretty much i think, especially for the price. Also i really liked that you can choose between different designs of packaging, i think it's very cute & original. I really reccomend this to anyone!

Shopping trip

Yesterday i went shopping in Utrecht with a friend of mine, i haven't seen her in a long time. So it was very nice to see her again & shopping is always nice so i had a fun time. Let me show you what i've got:



All the clothes are from h&m, the bracelet is from pieces & the sandals are from action. The sandals were only 5 euro, so i had to buy them. The jumpsuit was 30 euro, but i don't know if i'm gonna keep this one. I'm not sure if i like the quality of it, and i don't know if i'm gonna wear it. Also because of the quality, i'm afraid that the jumpsuit is going too look ugly when i've washed it. The salmon pink top is from the h&m trend collection & it was 25 euro. The batwing top was only 20 euro.


At the sephora they had a sale where you get 3 products for 10 euro, so i got a bronzer, blush & lipgloss. The max factor lipgloss was only 2,50 euro. I also got 2 mac products, which were on my wishlist. The studio sculpt foundation in nw25 (unfortunately the make up artist advised me the wrong color, which really sucks. because i thought they would know, now i'm stuck with this foundation that's way too light for me =( ) & the satin taupe eyeshadow.




Let me know what you think of it!
