Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate - Review


Hii Everyone

How you're doing? Hope everything is good so far.
Would you like to look younger over the night? I highly recommend this "Midnight Recovery Concentrate". It's a serum.
I absolutely love this product. It left my skin brighter, healthier and smoother. Not only that, it smells amazing as well. The lavender smell relax me.
I've been using this product over a month now and I see a lot of improvement.


All the ingredients in the Midnight Recovery Concentrate is very natural and mild and more important, there is no mineral or parabens oil, which means you don't need to worry about this product might break out your skin.
The oily consistence will not give you an oily skin at all. I'm impressed how quickly it absorbs into my skin!

How to use?

After washing your skin, apply 3 to 4 drops of treatment on your skin. Press gently with your fingers and start to massage in it, if you like to. You can wear it alone or under your night moisturizer.
Yes it is on the pricier side, but the money totally worth it. The bottle contains 30ml, which I'll need one year to use this product up. The "Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate" costs 53.- swiss francs.


Have a nice weekend :-*

Love, Christina

New NARS Counter - Jelmoli Zürich



Hey you!

I need to tell you something. We've got another NARS counter in Switzerland. Isn't that amazing? *_*
The NARS counter is at the Jelmoli store in Zürich. Me, as a NARS lover, can't get more excited.
My holy grail product by NARS is definitely the Sheer Glow Foundation. I'm in the color "Barcelona". This shade matches my skintone perfectly. Since i got my hands on this foundation, I've never use another one. YES, so much I love it! This foundation is my favourite, because it makes my skin so flawless. You only need a tiny amount and it has amazing coverage. 
NARS is a high end brand and the products are on the pricier side. 








Sending out a huge hug & kiss!
Hope you enjoyed

Love, Chrissy

Urban Decay Naked2 Basics || Review


Hiii Everyone..

As I mentioned on my Instagram CHRISSYINA and my Facebook page Prep the Glam we finally got a Urban Decay Counter at the Manor store in Zürich (Switzerland), which is so amazing.
I couldn't resist and had to grab the Naked2 Basics Palette.
Every beauty lover gets that excited if Urban Decay brings something new to the table. 

The Palette contains 5 matte shades and 1 satin shade for highlighting the inner corner of your eyes. The Naked2 Basics introduces taupe and grey toned matte shades.

The shades you'll find in this palette are:
Skimp (I use to highlight my inner-corner and under my eyebrow)
Stark (I usually use all over my lid for a base)
Frisk (I use for my lid)
Cover (I use for my crease)
Primal (I use to deep in my crease or under my lower lashes)
Undone (I use for a darker look)


Basically I prefer matte shades more than shimmery eyeshadows for daily basis. 
The quality of the pigmentation is amazing, exactly what you would expect from Urban Decay. The blend of the shadows is beautiful and easy as well. 

Let's talk about the packaging, seriously this is my favourite. It's so teeny-tiny cute and so easy to throw into your bag. It has a good size mirror as well.


You can get this palette for 36.- Swiss francs at the Manor store in Zürich or you can buy it online. Here's the direct link Urban Decay Naked2 Basics.

What do you think of this palette? Let me know your opinion. 

Love, Christina

Hellow Everyone


Before the year is over, my friend and I wanted to go to a warm place at the beach. I have always wanted to go to Valencia since a long time and we stayed for four days.
We stayed at a hotel called Las Arenas Balneario Resort and it was out of this world amazing.
Valencia is absolutely stunning, yes even in November. We wore summer clothes and we were sunbathing at the pool.
The view we had from our hotel is breathtaking. Every morning we woke up and had the most amazing breakfast.
It was so lovely to get away from the cold weather in Switzerland.
On one of our first night we visited a restaurant called Gabbana Beach which was nearly from our resort. We enjoyed the spanish atmosphere and the food was so delicious. It was so yummi that we already decided to get lunch the next day here again. This was probably my favourite restaurant of the stay.

In Valencia you can surely shop until you drop. There was like a "shop town" near the Airport called Bonaire (check out the link). There was even a Primark and Hollister :D so we went crazy! Of course we did a lot of shopping, that was also one reason why we visited Valencia.
We also visited the famous Oceanografic. I was impressed to see a shark. HAHA!
All the buildings at the CIUDAD DE LAS ARTES Y LAS CIENCIAS are stunning.

We had a magical few days away, I hope you enjoyed reading my post and sharing some of my favourite pictures with you. I absolutely recommend to visit Valencia once in your life. You'll never regret! I promise ;)

Speak to you soon

Love, Christina
