And here is one more Maybelline nail polish which is called Ballerina. It’s a sheer colour which is perfect for those people who don’t love bright or opaque  nail polishes.

But you can put on more coats if don’t want your colour to be too sheer, just as I did. The good thing is that with this nail polish even with 4 coats (see the photo) you don’t feel like you have tones on your nails.

I personally like lip stains a lot because they last on your lips forever and I like the matte effect that they give. They can be a bit drying but that’s not a problem if you use a lip balm.

So here are 2 new affordable lip stains that you may want to try:

Just Bitten Lipstain + Balm by Revlon

So this is the fifth Maybelline nail polish that I got and this time it’s a hot bright pink. And guess what? The colour looks great only with one coat! And with 2 you get a perfect manicure which is great. I guess it’s a nice nail polish for the price. And I kinda like the name Bubblicious

On the photo I am wearing 2 coats on Bubblicious, no top coat.

So this is the 4th Maybelline nail polish that I got. It is called Punky Orange and it is a beautiful pastel coral shade which looks amazing in a bottle.

But to get this shade on the nails – you’d need at least 3 layers and yet I can’t say that it’s opaque.  The colour is beautiful but I don’t like to have so many coats of nail polish on my nails.

Some of my readers told me that they would love to see more posts about the drugstore makeup. So I thought, why not? For the last several weeks I’ve been testing some drugstore makeup items that I was able to find in my collection.

So in July’s favourites I’ve included some of those products.

1.Too Faced Natural Eye Palette

I got this palette back in fall and even made swatches but I just forgot about it until I’ve found it this month.  You get 9 pretty eye shadows both matte and shimmery finish. I got mine from the USA for $35. I will be sure to write a detailed review with swatches as soon as I can.

2.Max Factor Lash Extension Effect mascara

I’ve been using this mascara a lot and I love how it divides the lashes and it works perfect for the lower lashes. You can read review and see photos of it here.

3.Max Factor Second Skin foundation in Creamy Ivory

This is one of the best foundations I’ve ever tried and  you can find out why here.

4.BECCA Jewel Dust in Asrai

First of all I have to say that I love the package, not only it’s gorgeous but it also has small holes in it so the product stays inside the container. And also, althought it’s not glass, the package doen’t look cheap! As for the shade, it’s so beautiful: iridescent pink with some small glitter. I love dusting it over the cream eye shadows. I promise to write a review later.

5.Rimmel Colour Show Off Lipstick in Pink Gossip

It’s a hot pink lipstick which stays on for a very long time and is great for summer. But I only
