| October Favourites |

Hey everyone,

October is over and whilst you are all having fun at Halloween parties we are sharing our favourites with you! 

Since it's autumn we are all about intense nail polish colors. Here are our most used of October. Maybelline's Colorama in 104 is perfect deep purple. Works with every single outfit and looks gorgeous on all of the nail shapes. The second fave is well known in the beauty community - Tanya Burr's nail polish in Penguin Chic. Although the color on the picture looks quite light in reality it's more mauvy color. Plus perfect quality (with a topcoat they last for 5 days).
Autumn is a perfect time to have some fun with new fragrances. We always love to look at the limited edition of body mists in Bath & Body Works (*link*). Last year we bought those two beauties - Vermont Honey Apple (very sweet) and Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin (stronger scent). Also they last quite long, especially on your scarfs and clothes which makes them even more worth a try.
October is a month for transition makeup. MAC's blush in Melba is a perfect product for that. Even though it's a peachy pink color it works fine with almost every skintone. The way we love to use it is with Ecotools bronzer brush. All you need is to swirl the brush over the blush, tap off the excess and dot it on your cheeks. Easy and fast without the risk of creepy, "clouny" cheeks.
You all know we love lip products. This month we discovered the newest addition to Catrice makeup - lipstick in MATTador. As the funny name suggests it's a matt finish (but it doesn't dry out your lips). Also this deep red color is perfect for both everyday and night out makeup. Tip: mascara + MATTador = quick and pretty makeup look (perfect for sleepy heads like us).

That would be all for our favourties. Tell us if you ever tried any of those product. And if you have your own october favourites?

P&B, xoxo

| Mad About … Body mists |



Hey everyone,


Autumn has officially arrived! It’s getting colder and colder, so we have to hide most of our beloved summer clothes (unless you live in sunny California) and start wearing cozy sweaters. Not that sweaters are bad, we love them, but summer is summer. We start changing up our room decors to make it more fall inspired, we switch our makeup and skincare but there is one product, perfect for every season. Now prepare to be surprised… it’s body mist. Just give it a chance and soon you won’t be able to get over it.




1. We all looove parfume, because who doesn’t like to smell nice? Body mists are a perfect alternative for them, they have more delicate scents and stay really long on your clothes or hair. Plus, you can use as much as you want without worrying that you are wasting them.

2. Another thing is the price. Sure, parfumes are definitely worth spedning a bit more money once in a while, but we can’t buy another bottle every two weeks. You can buy body mists in most of the drugstores or find a bargain like those in Bath & Body Works ( 3 for 2 is ALWAYS a good idea).


3. Have you ever smelled body mists? If not, your nose is missing a lot. We can spend hours in shops like Victoria’s Secret or Bath & Body Works just smelling those precious little things. Especially when they have seasonal scents like for example last winter’s Marshmallow Kiss or fall Vermont Honey Apple. Basically everyone can find something for them.

4. They are perfect as a little something something in your bag. In the pictures are only the big versions, but you can also find those in more portable size. Also, they don't break, so you don't have to risk breaking the bottle.



Last but not least, there is so so many mists to choose from. Although we showed only those from Bath and Body Works feel free to look for others (and if you find something amazing, please write to us, cause as you can tell we are obsessed). We hope we convinced some of you to try them out. :)

Disclaimer: Not all of those belong to us, we borrowed some from our sisters. (yes, they love mists too).
