/ fashionanitastar / 13 Comments

Hi everyone, welcome back

Today I have a review of this gorgeous  product from Maybelline. 

I love lipsticks and if you follow my blog you know I have a good collection, I always like to try new ones 🙂 

Vivid matte pigments give high-impact colour for a soft matte finish, creamy formula glides on smoothly and flexible,very easy to shape the lips. With full colour coverage, the result is rich & intense.

Benefits:

Rich, intense liquid lipstick, Cream formula, Easy to apply, Nice feeling on the lips, Intense pigments

I love the texture and the radiant shine of the product it’s gorgeous! The lipstick stays for long time.

 Berry Boost & Rebel Red  These colours are perfect for this holiday season ( Christmas & New year) ….  I definitely will try it out in other colours. 

If you’re wanting to venture into matte lipsticks these would be the perfect ones.

Hello and welcome. Today I will talk about something different , I want to talk about Portugal.

This country blessed by the beautiful beaches, has a collection of natural and historial monuments and attractions.

Tourism is big business in the Algarve and the Portuguese are welcoming, friendly and courteous to all the foreigners who come to visit. Many visitors fall in love with Portugal, buy a villa or apartment in the Algarve and settle there.  In any marina or on any beach at any time of the year you will hear a multitude of languages being spoken. Most of the Portuguese people speak English, from a few words to an excellent command of the English language.

The climate is gentle and the sun shines for most of time – averaging over 3,000 hours of sunshine per year. Daytime temperatures in winter range from 15 to 27 degrees while temperatures in the summer can reach as high as 40 degrees so always make sure you have plenty of high factor sun lotion with you.
