Eucerin In-Shower Body Lotion: Review
I love bath products especially if it’s an in-shower body lotion and this is a review of the Eucerin In-Shower Body Lotion skin conditioner for bath. What a big name. But it is nothing more than that super practical product that is a body lotion to be used during the bath.
Yes, the name on the product is in Portuguese because I’ve received in Brazil
I find this type of product to be so practical and also very useful, especially in winter, when it gets colder and you can get really lazy with your skin care after the shower, so the good news is that it is a body moisturizer that you apply while you’re in the shower. So, there are no excuses for not applying a moisturizer, you can’t say that it was too cold or it was too much effort, it’s so practical and that’s why I love this kind of product!
I’ve already did other reviews of products from Eucerin here on the blog and I really like the products from this brand and this moisturizer in-shower was not different, so I can already tell you that I’m loving it!
Body lotion: Eucerin In-Shower Body Lotion skin conditioner for bath (400ml) – Review
Starting this review of Eucerin In-Shower Moisturizing Body Lotion for bath (sensitive skin), it is a moisturizer to be applied during your shower, after cleansing the skin. That is, it is a product created specifically for sensitive skin that promises to strengthen the skin’s natural defenses and provide immediate hydration (and everything while you’re still inside of the shower).
An important detail is that after applying this body lotion, you need to rinse it (this would be the only difference between a normal body moisturizer and this one, if the traditional one you apply and leave the product on the skin, but the shower version need to be rinsed after it).
The body moisturizer for bath from Eucerin has 5% Dexpanthenol, but what is it and what is its function?
Dexpanthenol is used in some cosmetics, including some very famous ones, to moisturize the skin (remember Bepantol or see any similarities between the two words? Dexpanthenol is used in it too). What this powerful ingredient does is reduce the loss of skin water, so it prevents dryness and/or peeling of our skin, being a great ingredient in products with hydration function. Because it leaves the skin more hydrated and smoother.
In addition, this body moisturizer Eurcerin In-Shower Body Lotion for Bath is unscented, without dyes and is free of parabens.
The texture of the product is very similar to a traditional moisturizing lotion, it is super easy to apply on the skin during your shower and shortly after when you rinse it from the body, you can already notice that the skin is smoother and smoother.
As it has the function of a body moisturizer, after using this product in your shower, you don’t need to apply another traditional moisturizer, as it has the same function. It can be used daily, as well as other type of moisturizer for the body.
For its practicality, I love body lotions that are in-shower and I really liked this one from Eucerin, it does not have perfume (which is good point for me) and leaves the skin smooth and hydrated.
Where to buy it? Find it here for U$ 7.66.

Sequin Dress: Goddiva dress review
Let’s shine in a sequin dress, girls! I can’t never explain how much I love sequins, so tell me about a lovely party dress in sequins and I am in!
On the daily life or for party dresses, I always loved sequins and when I saw this mermaid maxi dress almost full in sequins I felt in love.
Sequin Dress: Goddiva
If it’s your time to shine and you’re looking for a full glam party dress, sequins are always a good option to think about. And if you want to be breathtaking glamourous, this is definitely a kind of dress you can go for.
The perfect party dress is that dress that matches your style and your body shape, if you want to value your silhouette, a sequin dress like this one is perfect, because it values your waist and it has a skirt with volume that creates quite a glam effect.
This dress is from a website called Goddiva, they sell affordable party dresses that are actually so beautiful. Inspired by red carpet and celebrity styles, the designs are very modern and beautiful, like any other shopping online moment when you don’t know a website, we always think twice, right?
The dresses look amazing on the website and they actually are! I was very surprised by the quality when I received the dress, the sequin dress was lovely and the chiffon fabric on the dress is also so soft to the touch, so definitely good quality in affordable prices for party dresses online.
I chose this cut out sequin and chiffon maxi dress from Goddiva in the color champagne, just because I was so in the mood of light colors such as champagne and rose gold, and I love how maxi dresses are so elegant in delicate colors.
Something that’s very interesting about this maxi dress with sequins is that because the dress has the sequins in a gradient pattern, if the dress is too long for you, you can have it fixed and shorted easily. Mine was actually just perfect with my high heels.
• How to rock this sequin dress:
It’s perfect as prom dress, also for bridesmaids, matching styles or not matching, or any other event you’re ready to shine! Be aware: every eye in the room will turn to you when you arrive. ;)
The shoulder detail is perfect for this season, since cut out shoulders are so trendy right now! And it’s actually a very sexy look, but in a very elegant way.
And here’s the back of this sequin dress in a maxi style:
Makeup time!
Here are some details of this party makeup and of my hair to match this stunning glamourous sequin dress:
Dress: Goddiva | Rings: Jeulia Jewelry | Bracelet: Charriol
Here you can also see my eyes’ makeup in shades of golden and dark brown paired with a red lipstick, just to make all my look even more glam!
With a dress like this you can either go full glam with your makeup like I did here or you can go for a more soft and delicate look in shades of pink and with a nude lipstick, it all depends of your personal style.
* This dress was sent to me by the brand, as always, all opinions and reviews on the blog are my sincere and true opinions on a product or piece of clothing.
Salone Del Mobile Milano 2018
For those of you who love architecture and interior design, this year, again, I visited the Salone del Mobile Milano that happened here in Milan a while ago, I already had already published a video in portuguese on youtube channel (/manuluize) with the main trends from the decor fair.
To check the video of the Salone del Mobile 2018 here in Milan (it’s in portuguese, but you can still see all the decor and trends ;)), watch it here:
Lots of trends in architecture and decoration, a lot of technology or even some completely classic decoration (and sometimes even a little “exaggerated”), the Salone del Mobile Milano is a fair that happens annually here in Italy and is huge, with a lot of variety for all tastes and styles!
It takes a few days to visit a good part of the fair, after all is really a lot to see, so the highlights of the edition are on my video.
A trend that may be a little contradictory that I would like to highlight: the closets and cabinets in transparent glass, whether for closets, on bedroom or even in other parts of the house (like living room or even in the kitchen). I say contradictory, because personally I enjoyed it very much, but I’m still not sure if I would choose to have it at home (after all, in the case of the closet, it would have to be very well organized all the time!).

Esqido false eyelashes: Review
Who doesn’t love a pair of false eyelashes? I definitely do, since it’s such a great way to “open your eyes” and get instant volume and long lashes in a few seconds.
Being a fan of false eyelashes for such a long time, I love wearing them on specials occasions or even just for going out when going for a more glam look. True is I would wear them everyday if needed.
Anyway, I received a pair of false eyelashes from Esqido for the most voluminous and glam look, the pair is called Nebula lash style and it as voluminous as you can go.
• Review of Esqido false eyelashes
Let’s start by the packing that’s so beautiful and glam in white and rose gold! The falsies are of a high quality and the lashes are very beautiful.
I also received their ESQIDO eyelash glue, which I’m loving and using all the time to apply all my fake eyelashes! The applicator is great to get the right amount of glue you need to glue your eyelashes in place and it also dries very quickly, so you can apply your falsies in a clean and mess-free way!
Now back to my pair of lashes, Nebula false eyelashes are very black and full of volume, it’s definitely not a natural pair, it’s the one you should pick for a full glam makeup look.
And here’s the difference between a no eyelashes makeup and a makeup with the Nebula Esqido false eyelashes with a before and after photo:
Here’s is another photo in which you can see the effect of the false eyelashes, on the left side without the falsies and on the right side with the Esqido falsies:
• Products I used on this glam/party makeup:
- Primer: Porefessional – Benefit, U$ 31
- Foundation: Lancome Teint Miracle, U$ 47
- Concealer: Studio Finish, MAC, € 20
- Eyeshadows: Virgin, Half Baked and Dark Horse from Naked by Urban Decay, €45,45
- Fake Eyelashes: Nebula false eyelashes by Esquido
- Eyelashes glue: ESQIDO eyelash glue
- Powder: Studio Fix Powder by MAC, € 32
- Lipstick: Ruby Woo by MAC, €20
- Bronzer: Eudora (brazilian brand)
- Blush: Make B. (brazilian brand)
With closed eyes:
Overall as a Esqido false eyelashes review, I really liked the quality of the lashes, they are really well done and beautiful. The glue is also great, it’s easy to apply and it holds the lashes on place.
They also arrived very well packed, which is so important when shopping online.
