MAGDA "UNIQUE PIECES"


               MAGDA  DESIGNS

Known for her unique exclusive pieces with the highest level of quality and difference- each piece is original, elegant and trendy.

I’ve long adore unique pieces.

The fact to own a unique piece it is just much more valuable in my eyes that just to buy what’s there on the market … of course when is a unique piece the price are much more higher than a manufacture product but is worth having those pieces in your closet “ you know you have that Item and nobody else does ;)“ Is not the same thing to have one of the bunch than a unique one.

Let’s take a look at all this beautiful and unique pieces of Magda

 
I personally love this original piece. The sleeves are just amazing and so different.

 
All her clothes have handmade detail which makes it so special

 
Wow check the details <3 love it

 
A closer look. The brodery is just beautiful and love the bottons.

                                                   Trendy, feminine and elegant

     
Magda is a young Designer with an original style which reflects in her collections.

BEAUTY HOME MADE TIPS


Hi beauties,

As promise here goes your next request. Yes I do take care of my skin and I am kind of a crazy girl when it comes to creams etc….. that goes along.

Let’s not forget something very important. Of course you need a good cream for night time and one for the day time.

It is important to take care of your skin since you turn 20 ;) I guess is good to prevent before complaining how to take off wrinkles, dry skin, bad skin.

Here are some of my home made treatments that I do to my own skin and you can do too :D

HONEY AND SUGAR SCRUB… ONCE A WEEK YOU WILL SEE THE DIFFERENCE ;)

 
Here's how to do it:

1. Warm a jar of honey in the microwave for a few seconds until it becomes runny but not too hot to the touch.

2. Pour about 1/4 cup of the honey (eyeball it) into a bowl.

3. Stir in 2 tablespoons of your favorite oil in my case I work with “OLIVE OIL” ;). You can use coconut oil,almond which ever you prefer.

4. Add about a 1/2 cup of sugar. Mix well

 
1. You will see how nice and smooth your face is after this great homemade scrub… why don’t you try it? ;) I personally do it ones every week and I have to say I love it.

 
 A great homemade “Honey scrub”. I have to say I have a funny story link to that J “Of course I do” Last week I did my honey scrub and just left it seconds on the sink and of course who had it on his mouth and had a great dessert? “My Dog ” LUCKY” So that is another tip from mine, lol. Leave your dog outside while you are doing this mask ;)

 
Ice cubes, Yes indeed one of the most common methods used when you have gone out for long hours, you have not slept much and your face looks just tired and swollen. Here is my tip 1. You break those ice cubes into little pieces

2.You take some cucumbers and you cut them into little pieces as well

3. Take bowl and mix cucumber and little pieces of ice together

4. you apply both on your face- eyes and you leave them on for a while. “ I actually leave it on my face until the ice is completely melted

( You will see your face just shine and glow J I promise even if you did not get those important  beauty 8 hours of sleep) try it and let me know how it went.  

 
 
When you have finish with the cucumber and Ice process here comes the “cherry on the cake” this is how I call it… Don’t get confuse J go below and you will see on the next picture

 
Yes a BALM, take any Balm you have any flavor of course it will be better a simple transparent one ;) I tell you why?

You will take a bit of it and you will apply it under your eyes and you will just leave it there for a while.

You will see and feel the difference the different glow you will have J

 
Try it J and please let me know how your skin is glowing after starting all this homemade tips ;) which I have the pleasure to share with you.

I have to say I love this requests of -tips for skin care- because I just love taking lots of care of myself so is like a joy to be able to share it with you guys

 
LET’S TALK ABOUT OLIVES NO?

 
This Tip goes for prevention for wrinkles YES…. YES YES…J believe it or not guys this “OLIVE OIL IS MAGIC”… APPLY TWICE A WEEK AT NIGHT… watch your favorite show on television and Yes my beauties you have to sleep with it… by the time you go to bed you will realize how your skin will drink that oil.

I personally have been doing that since a long time a believe my skin is smooth and nice, of course I’ve had my periods that I have forgotten but my face kind of asks for it J but it does work and it is just a boost for your skin.

 
Ok beauties this is my last tip for today… I know is really a little bit annoying because it takes just time for Ice cubes to melt… but try it while watching tv… that is the way I usually do it.

Rub an ice cube over your face each night to minimize pores and prevent acne and wrinkles

I have to admit I don’t do this one very often unless I have been very tired and busy  but I will start putting it on my agenda because I think I will need it after the following shows etc J

 
BYE GUYS I HOPE YOU GUYS ENJOY MY POST OF TODAY AND KEEP ON WRITING AND REQUESTINGJ
I HOPE I CAN KEEP UP WITH EVERYTHING THIS WEEK AND DELIVER.

I am in the zone, my zone; just creating and just being with my ownself at this moment.
It is funny because I am a “People” person so I always want to do activities  with a lot of people around – But then when I start my creation I just want to be a lone... is like a whole process...of disappearing and appearing with  goodies ... ;) Kind of like SANTA CLAUSE:)
Ok guys here are the photos, Hope you all enjoy ;)



                                         
Ok beauties…is time for my mask and my tea  first things come first ;)
With Love K.V

I’ve decided to blog some of my photos and of course its all about always being dress for the occasion ;) right?

Is funny but even if I go to the little store around the corner, (you will see me getting makeup on and some nice shades plus putting a cute outfit. I think is important for your own self to be always Beautiful and take care of your inner you even if is just to go buy milk :D  

Another tip would be; “BEAUTY MEANS NOTHING IF YOU KEEP I ALL TIGHT TO YOURSELF AND DON’T SHOW ANY JOY”SMILE MORE, LAUGH MORE, AND WHILE YOU’RE AT IT- EXERCISE YOUR MIND TO BE Positive, SO MANY BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE WITH SUCH NEGATIVE ATTITUDE …………….. Change people smile life is Beautiful
