Yay's and Nay's #1

Yay: I ordered again with MUA!! I told myself not to, but MUA kept making that harder and harder by bringing out such nice products lately. 
So I finally caved in ;-)
                               Undress Your Skin



Yay: I posted my first ever Youtube video, I concurred my shyness and just did it!


         




Yay: The first spring day was here, 15 degrees and sun, loved it!!



                           



Yay: I got 1.199 views on my blog!! Thanks everybody for checking out my blog, I am so happy and grateful for every single viewer. Please subscribe to bloglovin and make my day!

Yay: I FINALLY saw Skyfall, after several attempts of going to see it in the theater, I decided to buy the DVD and yesterday we finally came around to it. 

             





Yay: My Catrice camouflage cream, have bin using this for the last couple of weeks and am still loving it! Without setting this will crease a little around the eyes, but with a bit of powder it will stay put. This is the first concealer I actually like. Surely recommend this! Check my review HERE.

    


Nay: Hardly a week later the temperature plummeted to minus -3! A 18 degrees difference in a week brrrrrr , funny how in the beginning of winter you can have joy with every fresh flake of snow, but now I can't stand it anymore, GIVE ME SUN PLEASE, enough already with the snow ;-)

                      
                                           

Nay: Sickbay at DIY Mama's house, my kiddies both suffer the effects of chicken- pox, so sad to see them all covered in spots :-( But it does gives me the opportunity to try out my home remedies. More on that in a other blog-post. 

                                         



So what are your Yay's and Nay's? Let me know in the comment section below!

Hugs and Kisses,

Catrice Camouflage cream, first impressions

Hi Lovelies,
I've been searching for a good concealer for a while now. I couldn't find one that had the right amount of coverage, didn't clumped up in the creases, nooks and crannies of my blemishes and wrinkle's and had the right shade. But today I believe I finally found one that might check all the boxes above. 

It's the Catrice Camouflage cream in shade 010 Ivory.



I picked this one up at the Kruidvat for €2,99. For this price you get 3 grams/ 0.10 oz of product. It comes in a round black plastic container with clear screw on lid.
So up to the swatches. Catrice promises a cream concealer with full coverage.

Swatched: left 1 swipe , right blended.

So far so good, the colour is good, my face is just a fraction darker then my arm, it matches good. I apply it with my finger to melt the product on my skin, it covers really well, and blends good.
Usually I have problems with one or the other; if it blends well, I usually end up wiping the coverage off, or if it covers well I'm left with a dot of concealer on my face because it doesn't blend well on my skin.

Here a little experiment:

My freckles uncovered.
My freckles, 1 covered.
                                                   

As you can see it even covers freckles, it leaves a slightly darker spot, but hardly visible. 

I will properly test this concealer for a few weeks, but my first impressions:
looks really promising, and for that price!

Have you tried this concealer from Catrice?

Hugs and kisses, DIY Mama
