WILD ROSE EYE CONTOUR


Eye contour, illuminating smoothing treatment, Rose Sauvage

Already won over by the wild rose face moisturizer, it was with great pleasure that Online Fashion Store tested this eye contour treatment from Korres.
It is based on wild rose oil extract with illuminating properties (very good for pigment spots) and restorative action on fine lines and wrinkles. It also contains yeast extract which activates the blood microcirculation: perfect for dark circles! The product contains 79.7% natural ingredients.
Online Fashion Store
Lately, this treatment contains a sun protection index SPF15 to protect against aging.
The tube is practical with its precise tip, we do not waste product. The cream has a fine texture and smells… divinely good like all Korres Beauty Products I want to say.
I have indeed noticed a lightening of my dark circles, less marked than usual, and the eye contour is well hydrated without becoming "greasy". In the morning I put it on and then put my makeup on it. Be careful not to put it on the upper eyelid. As for wrinkles, the effect is not surprising (rarely for the contours of the eyes anyway), it nevertheless hydrates well and "plumps" on fine lines. I would recommend it may be more to 30-40-year-olds.

JUST BITTEN BY REVLON

Online Fashion Store
A few months ago, at Mix Beauty ProductsI let myself be tempted by Revlon's “Just Bitten” lip dye in a flashy “flame” color.
It is presented as a felt on one side and a lip balm on the other. The choice was difficult because 6 colors are presented and not being able to make up my mind I called on Céline who is always very good advice!
The color holds very well, this is a good point because it was still the objective of my purchase. However, Online Fashion Store has a lot of trouble with the balm that is supposed to give shine and especially hydration. First of all, great criticism: it breaks (for me from the first use, to be handled with care. Then the hydration does not work for very long in my case.
For the felt, what I really appreciate is the ease of application: the lip contour Beauty Product is nickel! On the other hand, it instantly dries up the lips but if you apply the moisturizing balm immediately I find that the color loses its peach it is therefore advisable to wait a few seconds but as in the morning I am not patient because I am often late. 'often forget!
Online Fashion Store
A generally very negative point with markers is that the lead dries out very quickly. Revlon has thought of everything and created a slightly special “double” cap to preserve the tip as well as possible. Well, it seems to work because I've had it for a long time now (February from memory) and it's still effective: yes:. On the other hand, the felt loses precision overuse, the tip frayed a little ...

WHO WANTS TO TEST SMOOTHING

Online Fashion Store
We were contacted to test a new kind of smoothing: Luxter from LissfactorThe problem is, neither I nor my sister need/want smoothing. So we invite one of you to become our special correspondent!
Online Fashion Store also recommended this product. First of all, a few words about this famous Luxter Beauty Product treatment: it is aimed at all types of hair, long/short, thin/thick, colored/natural, and even hair that has already been straightened before. It is suitable for curly or frizzy hair but also it is also very effective on very fine hair without volume.
The difference between Japanese and Brazilian  :
  • Japanese smoothing is aimed at customers who want a very stiff smoothing (like chopsticks), the result is sophisticated.
  • Brazilian is chemical-based so not really good for the hair.
The treatment will take place in Paris on June 8.
The person chosen will undertake to give us a brief report and ideally will show us before / after photos (not necessarily from the front, you can take a photo of your hair from the back), everything will be posted on the blog.
To participate, indicate in the comments your motivations for testing this treatment, and above all take the time.
We are both currently on vacation so don't worry if your comment is taking a long time to go through if this is your first time commenting

SOFT HAIR WITH REDKEN BEAUTY PRODUCT

Online Fashion Store
Thanks to my Little Box for the month of April (the one in New York), Online Fashion Store was delighted to discover the All Soft shampoo from REDKEN, an American brand that women's magazines had talked about a lot.

The history of the brand

In 1960, it was the American actress Paula Kent who decided to develop her own range of products in collaboration with her hairdresser  Jheri Redding, hence the birth of REDKEN  Beauty Products Indeed his job required so many coloring, discolorations, styling, and straightening that they had become dull and springless.
The company quickly became the leader in product technology in America: non-irritant products with a favorable action on the scalp and hair.

All Soft shampoo

Online Fashion Store
This 300 ml golden bottle (good capacity!) Contains a product whose smell capsizes me. This softening shampoo reserved more specifically for dry and coarse hair is about to become my favorite of the summer.
Indeed, as I am lucky to be currently in Corsica for a taste of summer, I take full advantage of the sun and the sea. The nature of my hair, therefore, corresponds at the moment to the target hair. After these "aggressions" of the day, it is pleasant to wash them in the evening with this shampoo which visibly thanks to its formula which combines 2 technologies: the Keratin Enrich Complex and the IPN(Interlock Protein Network) which are enriched in proteins, to repair and regain the elasticity of the hair fiber. 'Argan oil comes to bring lipids for softer hair.
I am very happy with it, but a small downside all the same: the product contains silicones. We will, therefore, avoid using it over a too long period (it is better to alternate in this case), but it seems perfect for the summer to protect the hair fiber.
I saw that the brand offered a range without silicones, parabens, or sulfates: Nature RescueI would be very curious to try it now.
Otherwise, the All Soft range is completed by 4 other products: conditioner, mask, care-cream spray, and multi-care oil.

PRETTY CHRISTMAS CANDLES

Online Fashion Store
This is it, girls, here we are! It's the last straight line ! We take out the decorations, the tree, the Christmas carols, in short, we get in the mood!
Online Fashion Store received this candle which delights me, and there is a good reason for that: my little Christmas tree is a fake (bouquet) and I miss it badly… the smell of fire. The super important thing anyway. Well, Christmas Garland by Yankee Candle recreates that pine scent that I love so much, with a little cranberry twist.
In short, if like me you love this kind of scent, it is totally the perfect candle for the Christmas season.
With Christmas Garland, the Online Fashion Store  added to its Christmas collection:
yankee-candle-christmas
Online Fashion Store
  • Icicles: pine branches covered with ice and notes of cinnamon
  • Candy Cane Lane: the scent of cookies, vanilla, and peppermint.
    A favorite Christmas place where delicious dreams are made with tingly peppermint, sweet cookies, and creamy vanilla icing:
  • Angel'sWings: the scent of flowers, vanilla, and caramelized sugar. I have the tart that is burning right now and it's a treat (thank you, Nathalie, for my little swapette!). It's smooth and sweet but not too much, really well balanced. I don't know if it's my nose, but I can also smell apple (caramelized apple, therefore: p). It's very soft and "cocooning" as a scent, I love it.
 
 
I strongly urge you to take a look at the  Christmas gift ideas at Yankee CandlePersonally, now that I have a nice collection of candles, I'm starting to squint very strongly on the accessories, especially the  Silver Reindeer,  which I love the look of.

ADVENT CONTEST 2020: KORRES

Ah KORRESOne of our favorite brands at the Online Fashion Store, you know it now and many of you have become as addicted like us.
Once again faithful to the position, KORRES not only wished to participate in our advent calendar but also offers you a great promo code to do your small shopping on the online store.
I can only encourage you to give (or give yourself) for example a nice Christmas Gift Set containing each of the essential care or best-sellers of the brand:
korres-gifts
Online Fashion Store
or to make yourself a small box filled with several products: gourmet shower gel, nourishing cream, exfoliation, hand cream… it has something to please! If you don't yet know the brand's products (shame on you!), The scents are really successful and not too sweet, unlike other cosmetic brands. At Korres it's still subtle, delicate, and I am quite unable to say which shower gel scent I prefer (as you ask me regularly: I really like them all, I change things a lot). Come on, let's say that if like me you like Fig, Korres's is a must! But the Goyage, the Mango… everything else is divine too (and I will say it again: not at all disgusting/sweet like with most of the competitors!).
As for the make-up of the brand, it's also excellent, their varnishes are now one of my all-time favorites (just that).
But also, it is a brand that appeals to men enormously. And since you never really know what to offer them, I therefore strongly urge you to look at men's products to make a small personalized kit!

COLOR ADDICT WITH L'ONGLERIE

nail polish
Online Fashion Store
Today Online Fashion Store showed you a nail polish from the latest L' Onglerie collection called "Color Addict", it's time to present it to you entirely.
It's a big crush, I warn you, I love the 3 shades.
The first is called "Fana" and it is an iridescent brown tending towards khaki. I'm not a fan of brown usually on my nails, but this one won my heart, precisely because it is green. I love its iridescent side which makes it a glossy finish.
Then we have the "Rose Délir", a superb dark raspberry, my big crush as I explained to you in my makeup article, it adds the touch of pep's necessary for my plum clothes.
Finally, I present to you the “Accro” blue, a deep petroleum blue that is perfectly seasonal. Me, who is not very "blue" on my nails, this one is the exception. it is sober and chic, just right.
It's become a habit, you know: I like the superb quality L'Onglerie varnishes, opaque in 2 coats, quick-drying and natural shine (photos without topcoat, see for yourself).
As a reminder, the formulation is without toluene, formaldehyde, dibutyl phthalate, and camphor.

A RADIANT COMPLEXION WITH KORRES

Wild Rose Korres
Online Fashion Store
 Today Online Fashion Store presenting 2 new products with this magical ingredient for the skin: a Peeling Mask and a Radiance Revealing Night Care that are suitable for all skin types.

KORRES Wild Rose Peeling Mask

korres-peeling-mask-night-care
Online Fashion Store
I think I have never tested such a product! It is very surprising. It is care hyper-concentrated in fruit acids (10% AHA) and which also contains pomegranate enzymes but also Aloe Vera active ingredients and hyaluronic acid to moisturize, regenerate and protect the skin.
Its purpose is to exfoliate and leave the skin texture but it does not contain grains, it is an enzymatic exfoliant!
It is applied to the face, avoiding the eye area, and left on for 3 to 10 minutes depending on the sensitivity of your skinYou know me well know, I have hypersensitive cheek skin. I felt the tingling rather quickly so I personally rinse it off after 3-4 minutes.
Then: super soft skin, no redness (the tingling indicates that the product is working but is therefore well supported by my skin) and ... a real boost to the complexion. You can apply it once or twice a week (I would say once is enough for thin and sensitive skin like mine) and on the other hand, be careful with exposure to the sun, AHAs can sensitize the skin.
So I'm super delighted, just be careful not to abuse the break time depending on the sensitivity of your skin (listen to yourself!).
Brightening Night Cream with Wild Rose KORRES
Ideal in addition to peeling and moisturizing cream, the night treatment provides intense hydrationI don't know about you, but as much in summer I manage to do without a night cream but in winter… it's just not possible anymore. In winter, my face is battered all day long by heat and cold, wind, radiators, pollution and my skin clearly screams thirsty at night.
This treatment is a cream-mask due to its thick texture, very "soft" on the skin. We do not rinse!
Let's see what it contains (95% natural ingredients) ... first of all, a combination of wild rose oil extracts, vitamin and hyaluronic acid which provide intense hydration and a boost to the skin. Then, a combination of jojoba, sunflower, floral mimosa oils to deeply nourish and form a protective film to prevent skin dryness. Finally, an extract of Turmeric root that helps fight against free radicals.
I particularly appreciate the texture of the cream as well as its sweet scent. It penetrates quickly so does not leave a sticky film but you still feel the skin well hydrated and protected. The comfort is immediate and lasts until you wake up (no feeling of "dry cheeks" in the morning).

OGX HAIR CARE

biotin-collagen-ogx
Online Fashion Store
Beautiful hair discovery at the end of the year! The OGX brand arrived at Monoprix at the end of JUNE 2020 and Online Fashion Store had the opportunity to test a shampoo and conditioner of my choice in order to discover the products more closely.
OGX is an American brand that offers products formulated without parabens or sulfates and with effective natural active ingredients. But beware, this is not organic, the products contain silicones (which personally, does not bother me, but I know that among you, some avoid).
  • Argan Oil of Morocco: dry and damaged hair
  • Biotin & Collagen: fine hair without volume
  • Keratin Oil: brittle hair
  • Coconut Milk: dry hair
  • Kukui Oil: rebellious hair
I hesitated for a long time in front of this ultra attractive range, it must be admitted.
Then, as I find that my hair has been quite refined this fall (thanks to the seasonal loss), I opted for Biotin & Collagen.
It contains, as its name suggests biotin (vitamin B8), collagen, and wheat proteins.
Already, great first impression compared to the format of the products. The bottles are 385ml, which is well above the average. I really like the shape of the bottles and the cap is practical (important for girls with fragile nails!).
Then, it's very simple but the textures are slightly colored in purple. For the purple fan that I am, it's funny. And the smell…. ah, the smell! It smells like vanilla, the sweet, pleasant vanilla.
The textures are really cool, and as I use them I really find that my hair has more "body". They are also very soft and very shiny, not weighed down.
A nice discovery for me, and especially this perfume adds to the pleasant side of the use.
