Sister's story

I talked several times about my husband and about my son ... but now is turn to talk to you about my sister {sonny's favorite auntie}.

She is 23 years old, she graduated Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics, from University of Bucharest, and she is, at the current time, a Java programmer. In other words, she also works in the IT industry. I think I have been a source of inspiration, in in this regard, for her {just between us, she would never admit it}.
Currently, she is between relationships {it sounds more elevated ... I wasn't suppose to say she hadn't a boyfriend}. Men who went through her life {don't imagine they were dozens of them} weren't able to appreciate her for what she really is: a beautiful, intelligent, ambitious, good, sexy and an excellent cook woman {at this chapter I think it would be good for me to get some inspiration from her}.

To be honest, probably they feel intimidated by the whole bunch of qualities. But there's no problem, I'm sure Prince Charming is on his the way to her. Meanwhile, she strives to be a kind of JAVA guru. Good luck sister, I support you in all your projects.

In case anyone is interested, she is 1.78 m tall.

P. S. Thank you, Mirela, for the demonstrated patience during all those photo sessions, but also for your continuous support in everything I do. I ♥ you.

Let's ivatherm it - campaign finish

I know that I wasn't a very active campaign partner, but that doesn't mean I wasn't here in the shadow to visualize opinions, impressions and primarily to test the products entrusted to me by Ivatherm via my friend Florentina .

Is the end of the campaign and I also have to express my personal conclusions.
I read the campaign journal (IV) and I'm sorry to see that one preliminary conclusion questions the existence of the campaign partners.
Dear representatives of Ivatherm I exist and I've been Florentina's partner in this campaign. We talked about the products on several occasions, we tested and we shared conclusions to one another, and to our office colleagues. I know it's not credible if there aren't any pictures, but sometimes you let yourself carried away and you don't get to take pictures ... On the other hand, it's in vain to put pictures took without pleasure and sincerity.

In any case, I got to test the following products:
 
1. high sun protection spray;
2. Herculane thermal water; 

3. fluid foundation. 

Testing conclusions are:
 

The spray for high sun protection is the product I used the least. By the time I received it I already passed through several tanning sessions and would have been pointless to use it since my skin passed the first test of tanning. Later, when the tan diminished, I got to test it and the impression I remained with is that it is efficient against sun burn, it rapidly enters the skin, it's easy to roll, it smells good. The only drawback is that it leaves your skin sticky, but it might actually be a good thing because in this way is more water-resistant. Finally, I can say that this is a product that I would buy in the future.

Thermal water is a product I used whenever my skin got irritated in contact with nickel metals, I used to set the makeup, I used to get a cooling and calming effect on the face, when I sat in the sun. Regarding its effects, unfortunately they seem imperceptible. Finally, I can say that is a product that I would not necessarily buy.

Now we got to the most interesting part, namely the foundation. Before trying Ivatherm I used for several years, Affinitone from Maybelline. I submitted it to all kind of tests. To get a better idea, I even applied one foundation over half of my face and the other foundation to the other half of  my face. Undoubtedly, it passed almost all tests and I can say it has some advantages: it lasts longer, it has a creamy texture, it allows me to calibrate the amount of foundation I want to apply on the face, it has a very good coverage. Unfortunately, I cannot apply it without first applying a foundation primer. Although it is very creamy, without foundation primer it's a bit difficult to apply it and I'm tempted to use more.. It's price in comparison to Affinitone is superior, but considering it's a dermato-cosmetic, I don't think it is unjustified. Finally, I can say that is a product which I will certainly purchase in the future.

Thank you dear Ivatherm and dear Florentina for helping me to go through my first cosmetics testing campaign. It was an at least interesting experience.
