MiNi HaUL: AsOs + Fresh Line

my order from ASOS finally came in last night!!! i was so excited i was looking for a cute black bag like this one where you can take everywhere...from the office...out to dinner...coffee...

i love it!!! it might be plain black but the little charm and the leopard print inside makes it really unique

i also was in the mall today buying presents for others..and even though i promised i wouldn't buy any more skincare products until i use all of mine up...i caved...

i caved because i am using the CLINIQUE anti blemish solutions toner (which i love) and my aesthitician told be to only use that at night since it contains alcohol...and alcohol products plus sunny weather is not a good equation.

so i purchased the Face Toner with Witch Hazel for Oily Skin from FRESH LINE.

FRESH LINE is a Greek homemade cosmetics brand with shops around Europe.

i really want to only use natural cosmetics at some point, so i really hope i like this brand...i do like the prices!!! the toner was 13.50 euros for 250 ml...compared to the Clinique which is 25 euro for 200 ml.

of course i asked for an eye cream sample (i love samples). the lady gave me an Hera eye cream with Rose and a Hera Serum Botox Like for the face to use under your moisturizer.

Have you tried any Fresh Line products? Will you be taking advantage of the free delivery from ASOS this holiday season? 

AtHeNs CoSmEtiCs HauL: Korres. Apitiva. L'Oreal

I repurchased 2 tubes of my favourite mascara (that definitely deserves the hype) L'oreal Voluminous because they don't sell it where i live. Plus it was only 10 euros each (3 euros cheaper than the Athens Duty Free).

I found a great offer in Athens Duty Free...4 full size KORRES products for 60% off. I only spent 23 euros! The package included: Multivitamin Compact Powder Lightweight Matte Finish (shade: MVP2), Ginger & Vitamins Lightweight Foundation SPF10 (shade: LF3), Wild Rose Concealer (shade: WRC3) and Mango Butter Lipstick SPF10 (shade: 12 Frost Pink).

The shop assistant there was kind enough to give me a couple of samples because i told her i wanted to try the KORRES brand for a while now. The samples i got: White Tea Facial Fluid Gel cleanser, Quercetin & Oak Antiageing Antiwrinkle Night Cream and Acacia Milk Conditioner for dry hair.

At the drugstore next to our hotel i bought 3 KORRES 10 ml packs for only 4 euros! i got Pomegranate Facial Scrub and Mask for oily/combination skin and Yogurt Mask for normal/combination skin.

At the drugstore for only 6 euros i also got 4  8ml packets of APIVITA "express beauty deep cleansing mask with green clay"  and 2  10ml packets of APIVITA "anti-oxidant face mask with tomato". If you are not familiar with the APIVITA brand they are also a greek brand like KORRES that believe in natural, pure products. The masks i bought are paraben,silicone, propylene glycol free.

At some point (after i use up all the products i have in my skincare drawer) i only want to use healthy, natural products because my skin is so sensitive and irritated all the time and i hope that will be the answer to all my skin problems. Plus i prefer supporting companies that don't shove a bunch of chemicals, that will eventually harm you, into their products.

If you are interested i will be happy to review any of these products. Have you tried the KORRES or APIVITA brands? What are your thoughts on "natural" cosmetics?
