Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Honey

Being late on the band-wagon, as always, I only had the chance to try one of the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains about a month ago. You know I love wearing "my lips but better" colours on my lips, and Honey is no exception. It's a natural, almost berry pink, which looks exactly like the shade of my lips. Its consistency and opacity is like a lipbalm's, but strangely enough I find it quite drying. 
What I like about the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain is that it makes my lips look more glossy and plump; the gloss effect will eventually disappear, but the colour will stay for hours. I love the minty scent and the tingly feeling it leaves on my lips! I think it's a really fuss-free product, perfect if you're in a hurry or if you're looking for a natural look; but I wouldn't advice getting it if you like your lipsticks to be very hydrating.

About a month ago I ran out of mascara, but at that time I was saving up for my trip to England so I didn't want to spend much on a new one. So, I decided to get the cheapest one I could find, the Avon Supershock mascara, which price varies from brochure to brochure, but I paid only €5.00 for it. 
The one I got is in a limited edition packaging which I find quite ugly, but I don't mind after all. It's got a big plastic wand with loads of tiny "spikes". After using it almost every day, I still haven't figured out if I like it or not. Sometimes it separates my lashes perfectly, sometimes it makes them look horrible. Sometimes it makes clumps, sometimes it doesn't. I think the worst problem I have with this mascara is that I can't apply it with my right hand to my left eye, or the application will be different from my right eye! I know it sounds strange, but it's the truth. It can be a problem when your're in a hurry and you don't have the time to apply mascara carefully. 
I don't look for much in a mascara, I'm not one of those people who put 10 coats on. My lashes are naturally quite long, so all I ask my mascara to do is separate them, give them a bit of volume and in general make me look more awake! I'm confused about this mascara and I probably wouldn't recommend it, unless you're broke and you can't afford a more expensive one. There are plenty of great mascaras out there, don't waste your time and money with the Avon Supershock.

An introduction to Wishtrend.com

Today I want to introduce you to Wishtrend, an online shop specialized in Korean make-up and beauty brands. You all know how much I'm into Asian make-up! ;)
The concept behind Wishtrend is to help women feel more beautiful, starting by wishing to be so. With the help of some of Korea's best beauty products, I think that will be easy! While on some other online shops you mostly find cheap Korean make-up products, Wishtrend truly offers only high quality brands, such as Mustaev, Caolion, Elishacoy, Ciracle, Pluie and so on. Most of them you can't find anywhere else online. All of this you get at affordable prices and with safe, quick delivery methods, including EMS.
Moreover, Wishtrend offers another unique service called Wishbox. If you're looking for an alternative beauty box subscription like Glossybox or Birchbox, check out Wishbox: for a small amount of money, you can get a selection of skincare and make-up items delivered at your door directly from Korea. How cool is that?
One thing I do love about Wishtrend is that their product pages are full of photos, swatches and product descriptions translated in English, which most of the times you don't find on other websites - you can be sure you're buying the right thing!
Here are some products you can find on Wishtrend:
