Quarantine... fucking anxiety #4

Image
Hey guys. Today, I woke up in a good mood (as good as you can get). Woke up, had breakfast, did a little work-out (little = I don't think I had sweat that much in years and after that, spent 30 minutes lying on the floor, unable to move a single muscle and breathing so heavily I was afraid my neighbors would knock on my door asking if everything was ok. It was great.), had a quick shower... yes, quick because I had not fully recovered and needed to lie down FAST. Then, lunch, a little german online class and chilled. Everything was fine. But then the news of a possible emergency state on Wednesday... why did my mood change? Well, I'm alone in Lisbon because I can't reach my parents (in the Algarve) because I could be infected and since they are in the risk group (due to their age + other diseases), well, I'm stuck here. I mean, I could go and stay with my sisters' family but would I feel comfortable there? With her family? It's complicate...

What to do with a Mac Gift Card?

Image
Hey guys!! This week has been such a busy week... It was my last week at the Veterinary Clinic (I was sort of doing an internship there and absolutely LOVED IT) and I had my driving exam today (round 2)... I PASSED SO I CAN FINALLY DRIVE!!Woohooo Ps : Sorry I'm over using the caps lock... I'm just so darn excited! Hehehe xp Well, now that I'm care-free, I'm starting to plan outings with my friends etc. (expect my future posts to be related with this lol) On Monday I'm going to Mac and I remembered I still haven't used the €30 GIFT CARD my sister gave me for Christmas (yes Christmas... I'm just so undecided lol) and I still have no idea of what I'm going to get... Ahhh HELP! What would you get?? Swiss chocolate eyeshadow? 217 brush? Ahhh... 

The Swamp thing! A.k.a. Yours Truly with a Face Mask

Image
Hey guys! A couple of weeks ago, I bought this face mask and I've been dying to try it out.  Well, yesterday I felt like it was  The day  (plus, my skin was having a rough week for some reason). This was the first face mask I've ever tried (I tried making a yoghurt and strawberry mask once... Let's just say I couldn't stop laughing cause it went terribly wrong!). This is  The Body Shop Seaweed Ionic Clay Mask - 1.50€.  There was also the same mask in a jar form, and I think it was around 20€, but I wanted to try it before buying the jar.  I wanted a face mask that would clean my skin and if possible, mattify my skin. This one did exactly that!! :) I was super impressed with the application and results!! I would recommend it to everyone!  Here is my personal thoughts about it and  BEWARE ... Some no makeup and  Swamp monster-like  selfies!! 

A Better Bronzer than The Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer!

Image
Hey guys!! I've been dyingg to write this post for you!! This product has been my go to for the past month!! :) What am I talking about you ask (or maybe not...)? The Body Shop Bronzing Powder in 05 Dark golden matte - 15euros. Before this, I had been using the Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer, but because it was my birthday month, I could purchase anything from The Body Shop as I had a 10euro voucher!! Don't get me wrong, I still use the Too Faced Bronzer but I think I might prefer The Body Shop one... Ekkkk Ps: Pros and Cons down below

What a Fail #1 - Clearasil Deep Pore Treatment Toner

Image
What a fail...  I've been using this toner for about 4 years now... It's great at clearing up your skin!! After using it in the morning and before going to bed, my skin feels clean and fresh!! I mainly use this toner on my t-zone (which is where I get oily skin and where my blackheads grow... Gross I know). But after a few weeks of using it HELL BREAKS LOOSE!!! My skin starts developing these red pimples around my nose, forehead and chin. So basically, wherever I use the toner, these red pimples appear...  And another problem is that they take forever to disappear!!! I've also noticed that I can't put the toner on top of any blemishes cause it seems like it worsens them... Plus it burns like hell!!!! So now, you're probably wondering why I've been using it for 4 years... Because it's so nice in the beginning... And I keep thinking "I'll just give it another chance!" And 4 years later, here we are. Should I let it go... *let it goooo* ;) If you ...
