Ibiza by Cathy Guetta

I have been looking for this one and I finally found it. I had read that it smells like cotton candy and I love sweet and fruity fragrances. Well, to tell you the truth, it kinda smells like Yes To Carrots products! seriously! It smells like almond and sugar. It's definitely not a classy perfume, but I wouldn't say that it is tacky. It's the perfect fragrance for the sexy, clubbing type of girl. I like it for it's sweet fragrance and it is also very unique.

Les senteurs gourmandes by Laurence Dumont - Eau de parfum - Tarte Aux Myrtilles

Oh my, where should I start.. This thing smells amazing! It reminds me of a blueberry milk shake. I know mostly teenagers wear that kind of perfume, but hey, I don't care, I just love it. It's especially great on summer time. It is strongly scented so don't be afraid when you first spray it! I promise, after a few minutes it settles and starts to develop a real nice pie crust scent. If you can get to smell some of the Laurence Dumont perfumes you will love them. They are good enough to eat!! Cost like 20 Euros/Dollars for 100ml / 3.4 Oz

Clinique Dramatically Different moisturizing gel

I wanted to like this moisturizer, but I don't. The reason is because I don't feel like my skin is really moisturized after I applied it. It does give the skin a nice texture but I feel like I need more moisture. I think it's a good product for people in their twenties. The gel formula is really good for oily skin tho. The big bottle with the pump cost 50 Euros/50 Dollars, so it's not a cheap!

Yes To Carrots Night Cream

It is a non greasy, moisturizing lightweight cream. It is made with all kind of natural ingredients that hydrates your skin while you sleep. The product comes out from a pump, and you only need little. Mature skins might need a richer formula, or alternated this one with another moisturizing cream.

Yes To Carrots travel kit (Shampoo, Conditioner, Shower Gel)

I decided to go with the travel size kit since I'm new to that brand. I tested the three products and I love them. All of their products smell wonderful. What I like too is the natural ingredients that they contain, and they are so affordable! I say yes to carrots!

Yes To Carrots lip butter

I love the flavors of these butters, but my favorite is the melon one which smells delicious! They aren't sticky and feel really nice and smooth on the lips. Infused with natural ingredients, it's the perfect lip balm for the whole family. Inexpensive as well, I know Im gonna get some more! They are available in 5 different flavor: - Carrot - Berry - Mint - Citrus - Melon

28 Blush Palette

Nice palette for a very affordable price. It goes to light pinks, light oranges to dark pinks, dark oranges, some peachy pinks and even lilac. Some colors are matte and some are shimmery. The size of the pans are not actual blushes size, you can use them as eyeshadows as well.

28 Neutral Palette

I ordered the palette on Ebay, and Im very pleased with the product. These eyeshadows are well pigmented and long lasting. I love neutral colors so Im excited to have that much combinations possible. It has matte and shimmer e/s. I think I like the neutral colors from the 88 palette better tho. They look more like some of the Mac ones.

M.A.C Eye Prep + Prime in Medium

I love this product. Its consistancy is so light, almost liquidy. Its a great base to cover any discoloration of the eyes and give the skin a perfect texture. I also use it to cover dark circles. It doesn't make fine lines obvious neither does it crease. The packaging is really nice, a black round container with glitters.

Yes To Carrots Eye Cream

I had seen this brand in the US but had never tried it. I got it at Sephora when I was thinking of getting Clarins Eye Cream but after I tested it, the formula was too dry and light for what I was looking for. I then tried this one and found that the consistency was perfect. Not greasy but creamy enough and well absorbed by the skin. What is great about it is that it instantely makes the fine lines dissapear! It also has a great smell. Im in love with Yes To Carrots products!

M.A.C Prep + Prime Skin Refined Zone Treatment

This is a must have for people with oily skin. It really makes pores look smaller and gives a matte finish that last a long time, as long as you dont wear bangs. It is best used with a powder foundation than a liquid foundation, because its so matte that it makes it hard to blend and can look patchy. I use it after my moisturizer, and my skin feels soft and smooth. It comes in a small black tube with glitters on it and retails for 20 Euros/Dollars.
