Fabulous Events- Essence & Catrice!

Hey Guys!

Hope you are all doing well!

Today I wanted to blog about the Essence & Catrice event I attended last week and give you a sneak peak of the products I received, especially since these products form part of the new collections that you can find on stands as we speak!

I plan to do a post which highlights the new products and also review each product, so stay tuned!



The event was held at the Hilton were we were stunned by a fabulous ballroom with an equally fabulous view! The highlight however were samples of the new make up collection paired with all the scrumptious nibbles and my favourite, a selection of Tea <3 BLISS!


At the end of the event, we received a gorgeous goodie bag filled with treats from the new collections. We were also encouraged to take any make up we sampled with us home! 

The products we received from both the Essence and the Catrice collections are photographed below:

Essence Collection
As you can see, there are quite a number of new essence goodies up for grabs at your essence stand!

From left, you can see the new lipsticks that are on stands now, from the new sought after liquid lipsticks to the new sheer and shine lipsticks.

The shades we received (and were able to take home with us) were (from left to right):
essence Liquid Lipstick- 02 Beauty Secret
essence Sheer & Shine Lipstick in 03 BFF and 07 Sparkling Miracle
essence Long Lasting Lipstick in 04 It's nude time

Just below the lipsticks is one of the new palettes available in a range of colours, I received the All about Greys eyeshadow palette which consists of a number of matt and shiny eyeshadows all in different grey hues.

On the right of the palette, are four products, three of which were samples I took home with me.
The first is the new Multi-action Volume Mascara whilst just below it you can see one of the new Mono Eyeshadows 13 Ocean Drive and Mattifying Compact Powder in shade 11. Just below you can see a sample of the new Camouflage concealer available as a duo.

Last but not least, we were given the 'Like a million miles away' perfume.

Catrice Collection
The Catrice collection also has something for everyone, from new lipsticks to palettes, I was ecstatic to learn that Catrice brought out new berry and nude shades for us to enjoy!

Starting top left, we were given the Ultimate stay lipstick, a gorgeous slim lipstick in the shade 030 Wood you love me, there is also a gorgeous berry shade which I cannot wait to get my hands on! Speaking of Berry, I absolutely love the Ultimate nail laquer in 94 It's a berry bash (which is actually my view as a type) and 98 No Coffee without Toffee.

Just underneath them you can find the Glossy lip glow, which if you recall a few years ago, is very similar to the Lip glow lipstick that changes colour depending on the PH balance of your lips, however, instead of being a lipstick, it is now in lipgloss form.. quite original don't you think?

Catrice have also launched a new mascara dubbed Lashes to Kill that give you a false lash effect without the falsies!

Last but not least, Catrice have also launched new palettes, the Deluxe Trio Eyeshadow focusing on nudes and berry colours. The eyeshadow palette shown is 010 Antique C'est Tres Chic. Just underneath, you can find the Pure shine Colour Lip Balm in 060 Go Flamingo Go!, a lip balm that I think has been already on stands since summer, assuming from the actual shade.

Hope you enjoyed reading this post! Stay tuned for reviews and more information about the new collections in the coming posts!

Fabulous Events: Bling Bling in collaboration with Colour Me Beautiful

Hey Guys!

Hope you are all doing well!

Since my lovely writers' block struck bad, I didn't even blog about two great events I went to a few weeks ago!

The first event I was invited to was held at a boutique jewellery shop, Bling Bling which opened it's doors a few months back! Unfortunately I was not able to make it to the opening, however, this event gave me the chance to view the collection!

This event was in collaboration with Colour Me Beautiful, a new and innovative outlook on personal style based on what colours, fabrics, styles and make up colours best suit each individual which in turn makes shopping and choosing the right clothes easier for you!

We were given the opportunity to view two make up demonstrations, a day look and a smokey eye look done by make up artist Becky Mallia.

Check out pictures featuring Bling Bling's collection together with some pictures of the make up demonstration!

I also encourage you to check out their respective facebook pages:

Fabulous Events- Lierac Launch Party

Hey Guys!

I hope you are all doing well!

Since I have been extremely busy, I have not been able to blog about this event before. Around two weeks ago I attended the launch of a new French beauty brand called 'Lierac'. A few months ago I actually attended the first launch of the brand, however, this time it was done on a larger scale!


Lierac is a French beauty brand which specialises in products tailored to skin disorders and anti-aging. These products are focused on using the essence of science namely botanical ingredients.. for all you non-scientific readers (like myself), this means plants, in order to create the best possible products for their consumers.


The brand is so dedicated in providing the best possible products that they also invest in many studies and training programs also going the extra mile of providing study programs.

There are a number of products available in order to achieve your desired skin so much so that they have produced a number of ranges in order to target the different skin needs a woman might have.

Apart from the skin care range, Lierac also provide a body care range, ranging from slimming treatments to sun and after sun care products!

This event was a truly enjoyable event since not only did we get to learn more about this great brand which will be available in store thanks to PharmaMT but my lovely blogger friends and I were joined by our better halves who decided that they will form a support group for all blogger boyfriends!

Check out a few pictures I nicked from the Lierac facebook page, which you can also visit here: https://www.facebook.com/LieracMalta

Fabulous Events- Coccinelle Launch Party

Hey Guys!

So the last event I went to last week was the Coccinelle Event! 

Coccinelle is a new High Street Accessories outlet, part of the P. Cutajar group which opened in Tower Road, Sliema next to Solaris. 

Founded in 1978 in Parma, Italy, Coccinelle specialises in producing high quality bag, footwear, purses and fashion accessories.

During this event, we had the opportunity to view the Fall/ Winter collection.

The use of fall colours are very evident in this collection, from a range of leather bags donned in black, red, navy blue, rust and neutral colours, these bags are a true show stopper!

Check out the photos I took of these stunning bags below but I should warn you, be careful because you will definitely start drooling! 


With Lara, Marija and Dorianne <3

    Fabulous Events- It Style and Dudu Launch!

    Hey Guys!

    If you follow my facebook page, you will know that last week was jam packed with events! Unfortunately I didn't have time to blog about these events immediately, but fret not, this week I am hoping to make up for it!

    The first of the events I attended last week was the launch of a new make up brand to hit the Maltese stores together with an new accessories brand which you can now find at The Point!

    It Style is an Italian Make Up Brand which offer a range of make up products and accessories to suit every girl's need! Not only do they have a wide variety of products but the wide variety of innovative products, formulas and colours left me speechless, and that is not all, these products are not only easy on the eyes, but they are easy on your wallet too!

    The store itself is huge, with a number of sections on either side of the store, all sorted according to the type of products with every product and colour imaginable!

    Check out a few photos of the launch party below!

    Neon Madness! 
    Glitter nation!
    Roll On Powder Eyeshadow- How Innovative!
    It's all about the eyes!
    Pucker Up!
    Accessories Section!
    Mega Bronzers <3
    Flawless Faces! 
    Fantastic Nail Section!
    Nail Tools!
    Nail Section!
    Nail Polish Removers!
    Fabulous Bags!
    So picture this, when we arrived at the event, we were asked if we are interested in filling out an information card which will then be part of a raffle. I usually always give my information because I like receiving news about different brands... little did I know that my name will be called out in front of a number of people and with very red ears (or so I heard) I went to accept a generous goody bag filled with exciting products!

    Thank you to It Style for the fantastic launch and of course the fabulous goody bag! Apart from the other fabulous goody bag everyone received!! You truly made my week!! 

    I encourage you to like their facebook page were you can see a number of interesting looks posted regularly: https://www.facebook.com/pages/It-Style-Malta/422002204566158?fref=ts
