I don't know what to say, I'm so happy!! 
Thank you so much Milla! x3


The review now! \*0*/
This is my first review ever so if you have any advices or maybe questions I'm listening you :3

Ladies and ladies...xD let me introduce youuu
 The Strawberry Yogurt Facial Mask by Skinlite!!
It's one of the products I purchased at Sasa, and I tested it the same morning I received my order, haha! ^^ `*excited*

Please don't tell me you NEVER sing in your bathroom, I would feel veeery alone x'D
The Lion King DVD just release in France...ahem x)))

 --> Let's start!!
  

Details
Brand: Skinlite
Name: Strawberry Yogurt Mask
Type: Wash-off massage mask
Where to buy: Sasa.com (product page)
Price: 1.00 $
Capacity: 3-5 mask applications! (thin layers of course^^)
Texture: creamy
Scent: sweetened strawberry
Active ingredients: phyto collagen, vitamin E, strawberry extract, yogurt extract. 

What it does?
Yogurt extract: skin softening and protecting skin's moisture barrier.

Apply by massage gently, avoiding eyes and mouth areas.
After 5-10 min, rinse with warm water.

Pictures
Packaging: a simple pouch with an opening at the top :3

Ingredients: mmh...it contains silicon and parabens :/
 








Texture: I like it! ( ̄∇ ̄)+
 















My comments: 
This is a very classical mask. Nothing extraordinary, but it was cool to use it though: the scent is really yummy (I expected a chemical scent but no) and the texture is pleasant to massage on face. Besides, the price is nice!
The result is here, my skin is moisturized but again, this is not extraordinary. That's why I like to use that kind of cheap and light masks in "cures": one each morning applied in thin layers (with a foundation brush :D), and the result is more noticeable after one week of utilization. 
I will probably buy it again, but not before to try the millions of other asian masks!! xD

Bonus:
The wash-off massage mask collection by skinlite: cucumber, stawberry, aloe and green tea.













The end! <--- 



Lolololll xD

I hope you liked the review >///< and let me know if you have any remark!



And finally, I want to thanks my new followers (≧▽≦)

New job + [Sasa.com]

Hi pretty girls! (≧▽≦)
How are you?

So I told you I was looking for a job student because I always need moneeeeyyyyyyy $__$ huhu
And finally I got a job for the next two weeks before back to school! I work as a bakery assistant since last week, in a bakery/cake shop. Unfortunately I don't cook, I only sell breads, cakes and candy but this is a fun anyway ^^

...but seriously the job interview was something like that:
I never been hired that easily xD


 
About my [Sasa.com] order now! \(^o^)/
That's my very first time I bought asian beauty products, no need to say how much I was excited about opening my package :'3

So here is the box:
grrrrrr there is a hole D:<

I always get a hole in my packages...maybe postmen hate me and love to play football with my stuff ( ̄□ ̄)' Fortunately everything was well packed, thank you Sasa! ^^

Here what I ordered! 8D

I choose a lot of these products for their lovely packagings, and I know sometimes it's a trap >_>' But I'll see...I'm curious hehe *cough*

Creer Beauty – La Rose de Versailles Lady Oscar whitening mask
It seems that whitening beauty products are popular in asia, and I'm really really interested a about it *_* It's supposed to soften skin marks (not to whiten/bleach skin, eh D:) but the only thing I know about whitening/brightening product is the 'very simple handmade yogurt mask at home' wich is very efficient! XD Can't wait to test it! ^^
The packaging is totally...nonsense xD

Koji – Dolly Wink eyelashes n°1
 OK no need to introduce it, these eyelashes are very famous! I saw it soooo many times on blogs, I wanted to try them since so long! My turn, haha :'D

Tony Molly – Ice Queen Crispy Tropical mask
 I heard a lot about the efficiency of this brand and its very cute packagings...there was too many choices so of course, I took a pink one! xD

Skinlite - Strawberry Yogurt mask
 Looks yummy *v*
I'm used to make my yogurt mask at home because I never saw something like this in french stores. So, I bought this one and I can't wait to test it to see the difference!

Hadanomy – Collagen Mist, Lotion and Cream
 The 'collagen' ingredient seems to be very appreciated in asian beauty products formulas. Again, I never saw that in our countries, maybe because collagen reminds us about plastic surgery? @_@ After all it's in the compostion of our skin, that what's keeps it fresh and bouncy... Anyway I wanted these products because they would look so pretty in my bathroom they are very famous.

Ocean – Vanilla Lip Balm
 Whoops I have too many lip balms ^^'
The milkshake drawing on the packaging make me curious...milkshake scent?? :o

Love Labo – Foot mask
My skin feet is very fragile and I always have to take care of it to keep baby feet, whereas some girls have nothing to do for it, that's so unfaiiir >o<'
So yes: feet bath, scrubs, masks, creams,...I threw on this product when I saw it! xD ...And because it's a sock mask 8)


At last, Sasa added a little gift to my order, because I'm a new customer. This cute makeup bag:

I can't wait to test these products!!! I start to use them tonight 8'D
Of course reviews are coming, I just need a bit of time for testing.

I wonder if you have already used one or several of this products? :o



I updated the September/October giveways listing post! 
Go go go!  *clic*

For french readers, here is the blog wich make me know about asian beauty products some months ago (when I knew nothing about blogging ^^). Very complete reviews, funny admins, so much stuff: *les beautés testent*

I wanted to say welcome and thank you to my new lovely followers <3
Elli, SaguComme3Pommes, Janina, Cominica

Take care and stay pretty!(^ω^)

Back from Holidays!

Hello pretty girls!! (^▽^)

I'm finally back from my holidays in Southern France! I traveled through three sunny regions: Provence, Côte d'Azur and Perrigord.
I had a lot of fun, visited a lot of places, tasted many specialities, and above all...I'm ready to face a new school yeeeear! \>o</

Mint before/after:

Haha! xD 
Sun and sea destroyed my hair, so I have to take care of it and loose a bit of weight before start of the school year, wich is the 26th of september for me ^^

I bought a lot of souvenirs!! O_O'''
 
Okaaaay not just souvenirs, but I can't stop myself when I see some makeup or a cute dress! >.< 

For my friends and family:
 
From Provence: a handmade spearmint syrup, a wine called « vintage elves » and some tea with incredible flavours: apple pie (really!) passion fruits and autumn (orange/cinnamon), all bought in a medieval festival. 
From Perrigord: forest honey, spring honey and chocolate/cherry jam *yum*

From Côte d'Azur: handmade traditional french olive oil soaps: wild peach, forest strawberry, monoï...and some soap containers ^.^

For me:
A new swimsuit!! *3* (from a random beach shop)

 
A handmade little case

A lot of nailpolish! Beause I forgot to bring some in my travel bag xD

Details:
I'm in love with this dress *v* 
I hope we will have a warm fall because I would like to continue to wear it even if it's a summer dress lol

 
Tadaah!


I need to work a bit during this month because I always need money to pay my studies, my art supplies, and...
my shopping ^^
So I'm actually looking for a short job student!

Aaaand...I finally received my order from Sasa and my circle lens!
So next time I'll show you this *3*

Stay pretty!
