Random Product Review : Mixa micellar water

I wanted to buy any micellar water, I saw this, for me, new brand and it was cheap and also I liked that Mixa has a pump, so i decided to take that..



It says on the bottle that it is for sensitive and reactive skin and eyes, it has vitamin B5 and rose extract. Also it is paraben  and alcohol free and hypoallergenic. It has 200ml.



Things I LIKE about it:


+  it smells nice, like rose, it is mild, pleasant  scent

+  It removes most of my makeup and I don't have to rub my eyes for that, but for that effect cotton pad should be saturated

+  I have that one bottle for about 4 months and I am using it daily, it last long time, at least for me

+  it was cheap ( back then, garnier micellar water came out shortly after I bought this )

+  it is water and my skin feels nice after i use this so I would say that thing about sensitive eyes and skin is true

+  it doesn't sting when it gets into my eyes
 



Things I don't like:


-  that's kinda funny, but I don't like that PUMP. When I press it, too much fluid goes out of the bottle and not on the cotton pad, but somewhere beside, it is hard to control amount of fluid that goes out

- well it is water so it doesn't work on waterproof mascara

THAT'S IT!


This is my first micellar water so I cant compare it with something else. I liked this water and I would buy it again but I would use something else for waterproof mascara .


Cheers! :)

Orchid care 101.

I have 4 orchids, I always wanted an orchid plant but I thought that it is tricky to take care of it and that they are pricey.

When I got my first orchid (Phal ofc) I saw that it is in fact really easy to take care for it. If it is healthy, you just have to make sure to water it every 1-2 weeks ( when roots become greyish), it is better to keep it dry than over water it.



You will notice that when you water it, roots will change color from gray to dark green.



Also, it is important that it isn't placed on direct sunlight because then you could get sunburns on orchids leafs and they become yellowish. And thats it for 101 orchid care, sort of .

Alarmodroid

So, today I went with my mum in home depot  .. I saw this really cool clock...



 There are 4 clocks on this picture and that green clock caught my eye. I would forgive that green droid for breaking my sleep in the morning.

Oil cleansing method vs. Ignore your face care

So, somehow (time on pinterest :D)  I heard for oil cleansing method and naturally since that is womanly thing to do, when someone says that something will maybe make your skin look beautiful I had to try it :D..

I see that garnier invented something like that with jojoba& macadamia oils.


Since I am more of a DIYer and I also had all ingredients laying around the house collecting dust, I took out olive oil and castor oil and mixed them in a small bottle (50:50) . I also added few drops of tea tree drops.


I took a few drops of mixture, put it on my face and put hot towel and waited for it to cool down. Than I washed my face with water. I did it  maybe 3 times and then stopped. I stopped because my skin never broke out so badly as after that one oil thing. Apparently my combination skin didn't like it and I was afraid to continue.  And it was somewhat of a time consumer anyway :D


Immediately , I switched to minimal face care. I wash my face with water every morning and evening and before I go out of the house I put some face cream vulgaris. I use make up remover to remove what is left of make up after water (mostly mascara, BB cream and concealer is washed with water). And I use facial tissues only , that is important too I think.


I realized that my skin always looked best when I ignored it! That goes specially for picking on face/zits.

As for the rest of oil mixture I think I will try to use it as make up remover. It dissolves waterproof makeup really nice. And it is cheaper. And castor oil is, according to my mum :D, great for lash growth.
