Review: Travalo Excel - refillable atomizer

Hello everybody!


How many times have you wished you had your perfume with you, while being at work or going to a meeting? Or you simply wanted to freshen up a little bit when you are out? 


Well, this is possible now, without being necessary to carry your favorite perfume bottle with you.
Now you can use Travalo Excel, a refillable atomizer, which has a system that allows you to refill in seconds with a simple repeat pump action. 








It comes in a protective carry case, so it won't get scratched if you put it in your bag.
It is made of aluminium, so it's extremely light, lasts up to 65 sprays and it has only 8,5 cm and 20 grams.











It comes in a variety of colors, here you can see some examples:





Now, let me show you how it works!


First take you favourite perfume bottle (in my case: Davidoff - Cool Water). Travalo fills directly from almost any fragrance bottle with a removable spray head.





Simply remove the nozzle from your big fragrance bottle (you have to put it on a plan surface), pump Travalo up and down on the tube, and you can be ready to go in just a few seconds.


It is easier to fill it up with the lid on. In my pictures you can see that I did it with the lid off, but I didn't have any problems when refilling!












Travalo has an integrated fill level indicator window to show how much fragrance you have left.







Here you can also watch a movie to see how easy it is to refill Travalo!






I really like this product and I totally recommend it!
It's a must have for people who travel a lot or work a lot and need freshen up during the day! I think it's a great gift for both men and women!


Where can you buy Travalo?


Travalo Excel can be bought from http://www.travalo.com/index.html
for 12,49 £. (here you can find all the details in Romanian) 


You can also win a Travalo Excel by participating in their "Daily Spray" contest, on their Facebook page! 


Do you own a Travalo? Do you think it's usefull?

Review: Ylin Mood Color Changing Nail Polish from Bornprettystore

Hello!




As promised, here is my review on Ylin Mood Color Changing Nail Polish, which I received from Bornprettystore!


This is one of my longest post ever, so bare with me please (I really liked taking pictures of this nail polish and you will see why!)


This is my first Color Changing Nail Polish and I was very eager to try it. After I applied the polish, I took the pictures immediately, so I'm sorry 'cause I didn't have time to clean my cuticles!


The polish comes is a small box:





It's blue below 33° C and becomes sky blue above 33° C.


This is how it looks like immediately after I applied two coats:





And then, it started changing :)












 
After it changed, I felt the need for a third coat.





After waiting a little bit for it to dry, I started playing with a bowl of cold water (and with a little help from my boyfriend - he took the pictures):






















I really love the effect of this polish and I think it would look great on longer nails (and when you go to the seaside / pool).


On Bornprettystore you can find different color combos, along with many nail art products.


I also received a set of practice wheels - 10 wheels. They are made of transparent plastic and they are great for swatches. 
I like how they look, they came packed very well, so they were all intact.





I have already started to swatch some of the polishes from Models Own Beetle Juice Collection. Here is how they look like on the wheel:





This are great for keeping your collection in order and can help you (or your friends) decide faster on what nail polish to wear!


I have some other nail wheels and I have already started to swatch my entire collection and, if you'd like, I will show them to you (just say the word).


Don't forget you can use my coupon code: ALEXAK31 when buying from Bornprettystore and you will get 10% off your order (the shipping is free anywhere in the world!)!


Do you own any color changing polishes? Do you like them?

Christmas water decals and dotting tools from Bornprettystore.com

Hello everybody!!


It feels like Xmas already when you start to receive gifts right? :)


Today I received a package from Bornprettystore, with my first dotting tools set and a set of Christmas Water decals, which I can't wait to try!!! 
I also have the old Christmas set (you can see the pictures here) and I have three manis on my blog using that set (one over China Glaze - Swing Baby, one over OPI - Suzi says Feng Shui and one on my friend's nails). 


I'll leave you with the pictures!









As you can see, the dotting tools are double - ended (with different sizes on each end) - I only took photos of the bigger size.


And now the Christmas water decals!






































As you can see, the designs are lovely and different on each paper.
Some of them have golden glitter as you can see below:







You can find the dotting tools here and the Christmas water decals here, along with many other nail art supplies! 


Tomorrow I will show you how I used the dotting tools and in December I will post my manis using the water decals.


Do you own any Christmas nail art?

Review: Scented nail polish remover pads

Hello everybody!


How have you been lately?


I'm back from my course (which was great!) and I have some catch-up to do.
This past month I didn't have time to do my nails (and that's why now they are very very short), but I bought some great nail polishes which I will sow you in another post.


While I was away, I also received a package from Bornprettystore.


This is what I got:

6 round boxes with nail polish remover pads and a cuticle pusher & remover.


First of all I want to say that the pads smell amazing! I wish you could sense the smell through the pictures :)





 Scents I have: apple, melon, lily, strawberry, grapes, oranges.
They came sealed (you can see the plastic wrap around them) and each box contains 32 pads. 


 I opened the strawberry one and this is how it looks like:





The pads are thin and well soaked in polish remover.


Here is a close up with two pads.
      



 I wanted to try them so I can see how good they clean the nail polish.


I had a polish on my nails and I added some glitter ('cause we all know how hard it is to take that off :) )





I used 2 pads to clean 5 nails: 3 with glitter and 2 without glitter (I forgot to take a photo with the pads after cleaning the polish, but I will take one next time)


Here are my nails after: 





The pads work really good. The easily remove the nail polish (even the glittery one, and I didn't have to rub very hard to do that!).


I think the pads are great to use to remove the glittery polish using the aluminum foil method (cut in half they cover the nail just perfect if you have smaller nails).


What I like most about the pads (except the scent; my favorites are strawberry and melon) is that they don't dry your cuticles!! 
Because the box is quite small, you can easily take one with you in your everyday bag or when you travel and you want to save some space!


Do I recommend them? 
YES!


You can find them here, along with a lot more nail art supply. You can buy the whole set or you can find them separately, if you prefer a certain scent!


You can use my coupon code: ALEXAK31 to get 10% discount! 


 I will share my opinions about the cuticle pusher & remover on my next post.


So, have you used them before? Do you like them?
Which is your favorite nail polish remover?


Thanks for reading!
