Summer 2018 Bridesmaid Dresses

Summer is the most popular wedding season and it is rapidly approaching, therefore it is a perfect time for brides and her helpers to start planning their wedding themes and color schemes. Whether you are getting married or being invited as a wedding planner, it is always a good idea to choose your wedding colors together with your bridesmaids.
It is hard to find a nail polish junkie, who doesn't like holographic nail polishes. This holosexual obsessions started to grow stronger together with the popularity of Simply Nailogical Youtube channel. I was never a fan of holographic nail polishes, but when I saw this beautiful spicy nail polish called 'Papakōlea Breeze'*at Born Pretty Store, I fell in love and decided to give it a try.
I want to start off with a little explanation, because I didn't know what Papakōlea means. Papakōlea is a very famous and unique green sand beach located on island of Hawaii. The sand there looks like a fine mixture between little emerald crumbs and spicy black pepper. So, Papakōlea Breeze is a gentle afternoon wind from a green sand beach. Sounds wonderful, isn't it?
Holo Series come in a regular Born Pretty nail polish bottle with a medium-sized brush-applicator. Application of the nail polish wasn't the best, it goes on smoothly on the nail plate, but once you try to build-up the color, bush moves the first coat. I recommend you to apply a thin layer of Papakōlea Breeze and let it completely dry, before the second application. Fortunately, it dries very quickly! For an extra opaque coverage I like to apply two thin coats of holo nail polish and finish my manicure with a layer of top coat.
To my surprise, after I covered Papakōlea Breeze with a transparent top coat, all holographic rainbows disappeared. Usually, transparent top coat is used to reveal the shiny power of rainbows, but not in this case. I honestly don't know where was the problem: in my favorite top coat Big Universo Brilho Cristal (review) or in this incredibly beautiful holographic nail polish. If you know the answer, please let me know in the comments, because I really want to understand where was the issue. But the saddest part is the durability of this nail polish. It started to chip on the second day of wearing, I wonder how long it lasts without a top coat.
Overall, I was a little bit disappointing with the formula of Holo Series nail polish by Born Pretty. The color and that beautiful rainbow shine are undoubtedly magnificent. But the overall application and durability of this nail polish isn't the best. Born Pretty has better nail polish collections, like the Pumpkin Series (review), which are very durable and last on my nails more than a week. I think, Born Pretty needs to develop a special top coat and retail it together with Holo Series nail polishes, to make them last longer and shine brighter.

Simple Skincare Refreshing Facial Wash Gel | Review
Finding perfect nondrying face wash is harder, than it seems! Today in the spotlight is Simple Skincare Refreshing Facial Wash Gel, and it is not as simple, as it seems at first. Simple Skincare is a very popular British brand of soap and skincare products, formulated for sensitive skin types and made from the purest natural ingredients. Simple doesn't use artificial perfumes and colors, that can cause skin irritations. Sounds great, isn't it? Let's find out more about this wonderful product.
Simple Skincare brand is pretty new to Brazilian beauty market, but I still decided to give it a try, especially when I saw how affordable was the price. Refreshing Facial Wash Gel comes in a regular 'squeezable' plastic tube, which you can recycle a little bit later. The product itself has no color and no harsh scent, just a very soft transparent gel. I love good smelling makeup and skin care products, but artificial perfumes can cause allergies and irritation, so these ingredients are totally unnecessary.
I have normal to dry skin type and most facial gels tend to leave my skin feeling dry and tight. But, fortunately, Simple Skincare Refreshing Facial Wash Gel is very comfortable, even for dry skin. Right after I washed my skin with this gel and gently dried it with towel, my face instantly felt refreshed and squeaky clean! There was no discomfort, unpleasant patchiness or irritations. I also like to use natural face sponge together with this washing gel, because it helps to remove dry and dead skin cells.
Overall, I absolutely agree with the Simple Skincare ideology - the simpler is always the better, especially when it comes to skin care. On my opinion, it is a perfect facial wash for summer time, when our skin needs a lightweight care, without any heavy ingredients and strong scents. My skin always feels fresh and clean after I use Simple face wash, thought, I'm not sure how it would work on oily skin. I highly recommend to try out Simple Skincare brand to everyone, who needs product with gentle formula and affordable price.
Lots of love,
