Product Review: Mac Lip Conditioner ♡

Posted by Unknown at 12:10 AM 0 comments
Hi! Today I decided to share with all of you an item that I recently got, but even in the couple of days that I have had it, it helped me a TON.

The product I will be reviewing today is the Lip Conditioner by Mac. Now, I get dry and chapped lips a lot and it gets really annoying, and when I came across this product it definitely helped a lot. It hydrates the lips, and what I really like about this is it's based on natural products such as avocado oil and almond oil.

I put this on and minutes later my lips are much softer and nourished, also it gives a very nice natural look to the lips, and I also like that it's colourless, not only that it has zero taste. However it does have a light scent which is still very soothing and nice. Also it goes on super smoothly and it doesn't feel goopy, instead it feels silky on the lips. It's a great thing to wear on it's own but it can also be used under your lipstick!

Honestly I highly recommend this to everyone because it definitely works wonders for dry and chapped lips, and for all times of the year. Also it's so super affordable, and the price is definitely worth it.

I would love to hear your feedback if you try this product out, and I'm really hoping you will because it definitely is a ton of help, and it's also very effective! Have a good day/night and don't forget to smile :)

Hair Products Recommendation ♡

Posted by Unknown at 8:34 PM 0 comments
Hi everyone! Today I decided to share with all of you some of my favourite hair products, which I think all of you should really try out too, and maybe they might even solve any problems that you might have had with your hair!

To begin with I have a Wella sun protection spray. I really love this product, and I apply it onto my hair before using any hot tools, and even in the morning before heading out the door. I also love using this spray if my hair gets frizzy or out of control throughout the day, because it sort of softness it, calms it down, and in a way detangles it. This spray also provides hydration.

The next couple of products are some of my favourite serums and oils. I've been using the LuxeOil by Wella for a while now and it's great. Even though it's an "oil" it doesn't oil up my hair, instead makes it very healthy looking. It smoothens the hair incredibly well, and it also leaves you with super calm yet naturally volumized hair, effortlessly. The serums I use mostly are the Wella Mirror Polish, and L'oreal Lumino Contrast. The Mirror Polish gives a beautiful polish and smooth feel to the hair, and gives it a high gloss finish, and I absolutely love how with a few pumps you can have perfectly steady and beautiful hair. The Lumino Contrast is also a taming, and glossing serum, but this one is perfect for highlighted hair. I personally never dyed my hair nor highlighted it, but if any of you did then this serum is perfect for you!

L'oreal Lumino Contrast Serum & Wella Mirror Polish (Shine Serum)
As most of you know from my previous posts I have been loving the Sephora dry shampoo and it has been so helpful! After PE this is honestly an incredible product to use, also on those second day hair times, spraying this definitely helps a whole load, it freshens up the hair very efficiently. Also it has helped me in styling, and overall I really think that this is a must-have product for everyone.

I love love love different scents and perfumes! And when my mom got me these hair mists, I honestly fell in love! They are perfect things to have, especially if they are the same scent as your favourite perfume, like I have here the Chanel Chance which is definitely one of my all time favourites! I also like the fact that hair mists stay on for a good while, and you can still feel the scent even if you sprayed it a day or two ago. 

Chanel Chance (Eau Tendre) Hair Mist & Allure Hair Mist

Lastly I have my Wella finishing spray, which is my all time favourite finishing spray out of all the others I have used. I prefer this one because it doesn't only keep your hair-do in place it also makes it look very natural, unlike most other finishing sprays which give the "finishing spray" look if you know what I mean. I feel like this is also very light on the hair, which is a hard-to-come-across factor when looking at finishing sprays. 

Wella Stay Essential Finishing Spray
That is all for my Hair Product Recommendations, I would love to know your favourite or most used hair products, and I would love to know if you tried any of these out and how they worked out for you. Have a good day/night, and don't forget to smile :)

Book Review: The Book Thief ♡

Posted by Unknown at 12:03 PM 0 comments
Hey guys! I am so so sorry for not posting in such a long time, and being so inactive but I am trying my best to get posts up as much as I can. Since I haven't been posting in so long I decided that today I will try to get at least two posts up for all of you. And I hope you enjoy them!

As some of you know I have been reading the book called "The Book Thief" recently and I personally really like it. At first I didn't think I would like it as much as I would, I expected to put it down after a couple of pages, but that's totally not the story of what happened.

I am not done with the book yet, but half-way through, I can tell that I love it. And I definitely recommend you all to read it. I feel like the story and the plot of this book isn't very common, which is something I really like in books, because I personally feel like most books now a days have very repetitive stories, and plots.

In my book reviews I don't usually like to get into details of what happens in the book since I want you all to read, and experience the events on your own. But I think I'll just let you in on a little overview of how this story is, this book is set in Germany in the years of 1939-1943, and it's a story about a girl called Liesel who begins stealing books, randomly at first, but more methodically later. Of course she has her reasons to steal the books, and that is, as you probably guessed, lack of money. Liesel never knew her father, and her mother disappeared after delivering her to her new foster home.

I don't wanna go in to much detail about the book or it's story, but this is basically how it goes. Also this book is now a major film which I cannot wait to watch!


That was all for this post! If any of you read, or have read this book I would love to know what you think of it, and if you liked it! Have a great day/night, and don't forget to smile :)

Blog Update! ♡

Posted by Unknown at 5:11 PM 0 comments
Hey everyone! So sorry for not posting much. School is taking over so much, and I have no time to write or take pictures. So much home work and quizzes..

I know that I said in my previous Blog Update that I will post every Saturday, Tuesday and Thursday, but unfortunately I will not be able to doing that right now, at least until I get used to the school routine. For now I am changing my post dates to thursday, friday, and saturdays.

Hope you're all doing good, and hope school is going good for all of you. If you have any post requests do comment below, or even send me an email! Have an incredible day/night, and don't forget to smile :)

What's in My Pencil Case? ♡

Posted by Unknown at 3:37 PM 0 comments
Hey guys! Today I will be sharing another part of the "whats in my..." for the school season! And I decided to show you all what's in my pencil case.

To begin with, my pencil case is from kipling and it came with my school bag. It doesn't have any extra compartments, and it's just how it is. I really like it, and it's very spacious!


The first thing I have in my pencil case is pens, quiet a few pens actually. I have about 4 blue pens, including gel pens, and liquid ink. I also have 2 black pens, one of which is inky and the other is a gel pen.

Next I have my mechanical pencils, and I personally prefer the Pentel one but they're both okay. Also for my pencils I have extra lead. 


Next I have all the other essentials like an eraser, glue,  ruler, and all those things that most people might not have or need, but there will surely come a time when they will come in handy. Oh and also highlighters, and corrector.


Last but not least I have my USB for anything that I might need to submit or store, scissors and a stapler. Now even though most of the time there are staplers in class I prefer to use my own, I also think that it's faster since you wouldn't have to wait for everyone else to use it.


That was all for today's post! I hope you all enjoyed, and I hope this helped you organize all your pencil case things, and kind of have an idea of all the things you might need! Have a good day/night and don't forget to smile :)

Evening Routine ♡

Posted by Unknown at 5:58 PM 0 comments
Hi everyone! Today I will be giving you a look into my evening routine. Unlike most people I don't do anything special for a routine but I decided to share it with you anyway!

Usually I take a shower in the evening before going to sleep, however I won't mention my shower routine as I already have a post on that which you can check out right here. Once I'm done with my shower I brush my teeth, and then apply my moisturising gel.



If I washed my hair that evening I will blow dry it, which is something I don't normally do, but now that school started I blow dry my hair every time so that it will look put together in the morning. Also, as mentioned in my shower routine I apply hair oil before drying my hair. Also I apply sun protection spray before, and after blow drying, which I don't currently have to show you guys. When my hair is dry I apply my Chanel Chance hair mist, which as most of you know I absolutely adore.



Lastly, when I'm done with everything I had to do, and I've changed into my pyjamas I have some relax time by reading a book (I'm currently reading "The Book Thief"), checking my phone and laptop, or writing in my little journal. After an hour (usually much longer :3) or so I set my alarm for the next morning and go to sleep.


That was all for today's post! I hope you all enjoyed! Have a great day/night, and don't forget to smile :)

What's in My School Beauty Bag? ♡

Posted by Unknown at 2:07 PM 1 comments
Hi! Today I will be sharing with you what I keep in my school beauty bag! I thought this would be a great post to help you all out with organizing and deciding what you would need for your beauty bag in case you were thinking of getting one.

As most of you know my beauty bag is the "Be Happy" bag from Bath&Body Works which I have in my Collective Haul. For me it's a perfect size and it fits everything that I need!

The first thing I have in there is hair things. Firstly I have a mini dry shampoo from Sephora which is mainly for after PE. I also have extra hair ties and bobby pins. I also have a mini hair brush which is also mostly for PE or for any touch ups (actually girls in my class love to play with my hair hahaha) 


Next thing I have is hygiene things, because too many germs.. Basically for hygiene I have a sanitizer and wet wipes.Very helpful.


I have few beauty related supplies, and those are the Baby Lips lip balm, and I can't quiet remember what this one is called.. I also have a mini mascara, and it's the baby doll by YvesSaintLaurent I believe. Lastly I have a little cute compact mirror.


Lastly in my Beauty Bag I have a body mist from Bath&Body Works which actually came with this little bag. It has a very nice, and fresh scent which I really like!


That was all for today's post! Hope this was helpful for all of you! If you have any important essentials that you keep in your beauty bag be sure to send them to me because I would love to know what you guys like to keep, and maybe I will need it too! Have a good day/night and don't forget to smile :)

My Shoe Collection ♡

Posted by Unknown at 10:53 AM 0 comments
Hey guys today I will be sharing with you my shoe collection! Now I won't be adding all of my shoes but only some because I felt like it wasn't exactly necessary to show each and every single one, I left out about 3-5 pairs.

Flats:

The first flats are my ultimate favorite that I got recently but I have been wearing them non stop, and since they're a nude color they match all my clothes. They're also very comfy yet super cute, and I love the rhinstones on them!


The next pair of flats is one that you've also seen in my previous OOTD posts and they are the purple toed Gucci flats, which also have the Gucci print. I like how they're a little darker so they match with darker clothes, and that they have the mix of design. They are also pretty comfy!



Another pair of Gucci flats which kind a looks like the pair above but instead they have a brown toe and a floral print, which is super cute. Also in the Gucci store they have a maching bag and wallet for these shoes! I love how they have a cute floral print which matches with a lot of my clothes and it's perfect for summer or spring.



Next I have super cute ballerina flats from Ted Baker which I would usually wear with a dress since they are a neutral color but they are so comfy and lovely that a lot of times I wore them casually, they're perfect for everything! And I absolutely love the little bow on them!


Another pair that I absolutely adore are these brown and blue Dior flats which I wore so much, it's insane. These shoes were actually the reason of me getting the miumiu shoes because I really liked the shape and form of those type of shoes, and they are just super extra comfy.



The next pair is also something you've all seen and that is my blue velvet flat shoes from Massimo Dutti, now they have a little tiny heel but I still count them as flats. They are super cute and perfect to wear with jeans or skirts, they're also pretty comfy which I personally didn't expect at first.



Hightop Sneakers:

Most of my sneakers are hightops except for like one or two, but I just decided to share the hightops. The first one I have is purple and they are just lovely, I adore the color and the little rhinstones too. They match most of my outfits and they're super comfortable too!




Next I have a pair of plain black Louis Vuitton hightops which I got recently and they are just great, I like how on the sides they have a slightly sheer yet quiet strong material. And I've been wearing them a lot even though it's summer and they are black (black is always a good idea).




This next pair of hightops is from Miss Grant and they were one of my earliest hightops, I love the shimmery navy blue material, and the fact that they have zippers on the side makes everything so much easier, I never have to tie them just zip them up and I'm ready to go out!




Heels:

I have just one pair of heels which most of you already saw, now they are not exactly high heels but I still count them as heels. I would love to have more heels but I still haven't found another pair that has wowed me enough to buy them, also I feel like flats are a tad more comfortable, however I still really love heels!




That was all for my shoe collection! I hope you all enjoyed, if you have a favorite pair of shoes you want to share or even a whole collection like I did here I would love to see it! Have a good day/night and don't forget to smile :)

What's in My School Bag? ♡

Posted by Unknown at 10:48 PM 0 comments
Hey guys! Before I get into today's post I would like to mention that now that school started it will be quiet hard for me to post as I have a lot to do, I'm really busy and get tired a lot but I will still try my best to keep up with the days I assigned for posts, in case I don't I will definitelly try to make it up on different days.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 Today I decided to show you guys what I keep in my school bag and kind of show my organization in it. To start of I have a Kipling College Backpack in pink color, I'm not really sure the specific name of the color but I'm pretty sure it's pink haha. Also as all other Kipling bags mine has a little monkey on it, and I attached a few of my own keychains too, like the I <3 D since my name is Dayana, and the name tag keychain which our lovely English teacher got for us!      



                                                                                                                                                                              I have 3 compartments in my school bag. In the back/biggest compartment I keep my binder and a notebook to take any notes or for some things I might need to take note of, also this part of my bag has a laptop slot which is also quiet helpful. In this same compartment I also keep my pencilcase because it has a special place for it in there                                                                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                         
                                                                                                                                                                            In the middle compartment I have divisions which divides it into three smaller compartments (kind a complicated to explain but that's okay) In one of the slots I keep my school notebooks which aren't necesarry to show because they're pretty simple and everyone has them. In the next slot I have 3 seperate files for my "main" subjects or basically those that have a lot of worksheets. In the third slot I keep my planner and a little notebook for personal thoughts, and notes.                                                                                                                          

                                                                                                                                                                           In the smallest compartment at the front of the bag I have my calculator, colors, beauty bag, tape, and all those extra things. In my beauty bag for school I have just a few things that I might probably need. If you would like to see a detailed "Whats in my beauty school bag?" be sure to tell me!                                                                                                                                                                      

                                                                                                                                                                        That was all for my "What's in my school bag" post, I hope you enjoyed it and I hope it helped you with organizing your bag! I might also post a "What's in my pencil case" post very soon! Also I would like to apologize for any defects in this post it's just that my laptop's keyboard has been damaged and I haven't fixed it yet. Have a good day/night, and don't forget to smile :)
