1 Gigantic thank you to you all for putting up with me :)

My heart is with all of you ☮

 

Last friday, I was shocked when I heard about the attacks in Paris.

I used to live in Paris, actually when I started this blog I was living in Paris. I didn't live in the city-center but very close.  I know the Bataclan and the surroundings very well since one of my friends lived very close to that. Last year I was in Paris when the Charlie Abdul thing happened and I felt completely terrified. After that, security got very tight. The Police was always armed with gigantic guns, they were always checking people's bags before letting them go inside any important building or even doing identity checks. So i know that the police was trying to prevent this type of shit. But it still happened. It makes me so sad to see this and it terrifies me to my very core knowing that is happened even with super tight security.

Fortunately,  non of my friends were victims. And my heart is with the families and friends of the people that were horrible attacked. I also think we should all thank all the police officers and the people that helped rescue the victims for their bravery and efforts!

In a couple of months I'll have to go back to Paris, but I know that the city I've left a couple months ago is not going to be the same. But we are strong. We are Paris. And we'll not let this take the light out of Paris. After all Paris est la ville lumière!

Shopping | Maquillalia.com

So, last week --  I think --  I ran out of dry shampoo. So since I could not find any dry-shampoo, anywhere --  read my rant HERE!-- I end up ordering some from Maquillalia.com. This website is really nice. And it has lots of make up brands that you can not find in Portugal. Which for me is awesome, since i am mostly used to american brands. The shipping was super fast. I ordered it one day and I think it took two days to arrive! I love when I don't have to wait a week for the stuff.  This company always sends a gift. This time they sent me some tea. I loved it! -- And I used them before taking this picture...

So I ordered two cans of dry shampoo from my favorite brand -- Batiste-- in Sassy & Darling wild. This one smells like vanilla and it is very very good. 

I also ordered this brow kit.  It's the Wet'n'wild Ultimate Brow Kit in Ash-brown -- I think that there was only this color available, actually.

Anyway, I'm not very into filling in my brows, because I have naturally full brows but I decided to buy one of this and try it out just because I've red really good reviews about it.  The first square is just some clear wax, and the other two are just two shades or brow powder. And they are super super pigmented. They are super nice. Even to use as a regular eye-shadow. It also came with a super super super tiny angle brush and tweezers! So cute!

I've red in the comments that most of you didn't knew what dry shampoo is, and I'm guessing that you don't know what's for and how to use it, so If you'd like me to write a post about it, explaining what I do,  let me know in the comments! 

And do you fill your brows? What products do you use for that?

Empties #4 | love love love

- BATISTE Blush Dry Shampoo. For me this is the best dry shampoo ever. I love it and I use it all the time. Apparently they don't sell this brand in Portugal... and the brands that are sold are super expensive! So I had do order it online. Will I repurchase it? YES (already did! - from Maquillalia.com)

- LISTERINE Total Care Mouth Wash. This is something that I need do use every single day. Twice. Or more. I feel like my teeth aren't completely clean if i don't use Listerine. And this one has alcohol. Yes it needs to have alcohol and it has to make me cry. Otherwise I don't believe that it's doing anything. Will I repurchase it? YES

- PANTENE PROV Hair Spray.  I loove this hair spray. I use it when I curl my hair or when i want to control some fly-outs or baby-hairs . This can is super old. It lasts me FOR-EVER. Really. And what i really love about it is that at the end of the day you can just brush your hair and all the product goes away.  Will I repurchase it? YES
