October EMPTIES! Haircare, bodycare and makeup!

Hey everyone! 

I really get a kick out of finishing things, haha! I hope I'm not the only one. My friend's who are not makeup junkies hate finishing things because it means they have to go out to get a new one. For me it's an opportunity to try something else in my collection! Love it <3

But enough of the nonsense, over to the empties!

Once again I have my little box of empties to show you! There aren't that many items in here now, but I'm still happy with the progress. Especially since there are some makeup in there.

For off is body and face items!

Veet Hair Minimizing Body Lotion
I had high hopes for this, but sadly it didn't really do anything for me. Maybe I didn't use enough, maybe I didn't use it often enough, but either way, it's not a repurchase from me.

Garnier Nordic Essentials Cleansing Gel Mousse with Grape Extract
This one, however, I really did like! I think Garier is my all time favourite brand for facial cleansers. I will definetly repurchase this in the future.

Palmolive Aroma Therapy Absolute Relax Shower Gel
This one is supposed to have a relaxing scent and to calm you down. For me it took a little while to get used to the scent, but now I quite like it. I don't know if I would repurchase this spesific scent, but I might repurchase other Aroma Therapy-products from Palmolive later.

And then there's my haircare items from October.

System Professionals Color Save Shampoo
I got this from my mum because she didn't really like it. I didn't have any problems with it, but it's way out of my price range when it comes to shampoo.

Schwarzkopf Got2b Rockin' it Dry Shampoo
I've shown this many times, I think this was my 3rd bottle. I never get it when it's full price though, but if I see it at a sale, then I'll pick it up again and again!

VO5 Perfect Lengths Conditioner
This one I really liked! I'm a little picky with my conditioners, but for the price this is a real bargain! I'll keep buying this for sure. I already have a backup!

Syoss Professional Beauty Elixir Absolute Oil
This is a hair oil, and I did really like it at first. But because this was my first one, I hadn't tried anything else. now I'm using the L'oreal Extrairdinary Oil and I perfer it alot to the one from Syoss, so I would not repurchase.

Then on to the fun stuff; the makeup!

Sence Strawberry Lipbalm
I really liked this one, and I have another. It's very cheap and works fine, but what I don't like is that it doesn't stay on my lips. If you eat, drink, kiss or anything with this on it's gone. I might repurchase.

Fingr Acetone Free Nailpolish Corrector Pen
This was fine, but I perfer a q-tip dipped in polish remover. The tip gets all covered in nail polish, and after a while it just doesn't work very well.

Clinique Chubby Stick - Mighty Mimosa
This one I really liked! I got this in the middle of July, and it's gone already! It's a perfect everyday lipcolor that goes with anything and I'll definetly get more Chubby Sticks in the future when I've used up the three other ones I have.

IsaDora Extra Volume Build-Up Mascara
This was just a little sample, but I'm considering buying the full size. I got some compliments on my lashes when I wore this, and let me tell you; that doesn't happend a lot! A+

L'oreal Matte Morphose Foundation - Rosy Ivory
This was pretty good! It was easy to just slap on and I didn't have to set it with a powder either. I don't know if I will repurchase this, but I really liked it while it lasted. Not to mention; I was really excited to have finished up a foundation!

Oriflame Wonder Lash Mascara
No no no, I did not like this at all. I'm not really sure why, because the formula seemed alright and the brush was OK, but this was just not my cup of tea for some reason.

First Price Facial Cleanser Towlettes
I've used this up so many times I can't even tell you. Anyways, I will keep repurchasing this or another generic brand of makeup remover / facial cleanser towlettes for sure.

That was everything! Not too bad huh ?
I'm at least happy, I'm really glad every time I use something up, and seing it in my box at the end of every month really makes me happy!

Thanks for reading everyone, I'll be back soon!

My Go-To Makeup while Moving

As I said in my last post, I'm back!

And I also mentioned that I'm moving back to my mum's since my (now ex)boyfriend broke up, which means mh makeup has been packed down, so I have a little makeup tray with makeup for everday, which I will now show you, haha!

Here you can see it all! Lipsticks, eyeshadows, brushes and everything else!

Here are my makeup items. My ELF Custom Eyes palette, DIY lipstick palette, 3CE Lip Pigments, ELF blush in Peachy Keen, Holika Holika Aqua Petit BB Cream, ELF Mineral Infused Face Primer in Tone Adjusting Green, Etude House Proof 10 Eye Primer, L'oreal Matte Morphose Foundation, IsaDora Mascara, Oriflame Mascara and the H&M Liquid Eyeliner.

¨
Here's my ELF palette! I have 14 shades!
Ivory - Pink Ice - Truly Pink - Wisteria - Periwinkle
Golden Glow - Wheat - Mocha - Moondust - Drift Wood
Sage - Navy - Aubergine - Dusk

Mocha is a lot redder than it seems in the picture, and Moondust is darker. The blitz doesn't do them justice at all.

Then there's my little DIY Lipstick Palette with 12 lipsticks. Again, the colors aren't completely accurate, but it's close on most of the colors. You can see the numbers, so I'll list the shades with numbers!
1. NK - Very Berry, 2. Color Works - Ebony, 3. Oriflame - Wine, 4. MNY - 809A,
5. Viva la Diva - Hot Tulip (More pink and darker), 6. Viva la Diva - Vampire Red (a true red IRL)
7. Miners - Baby Pink, 8. Miners - Cinnamon, 9. S.he Makeup - Just Peachy, 10. NK - Amethyst
11. NK -Berry Plum, 12. Viva la Diva - Cream Coral

As you can see there's a good mix, and I'm going to put all of my lipsticks in these palettes. I got this on eBay for $.99 and a full lipsticks fills up one container, so it's the perfect size and really compact for 12 lipsticks! Love it!

Sigma E50, Sigma F25, Joursna (no name), Sigma E25, ELF Eyeshadow Brush
and then two random lipbrushes from a eBay brush set !

So that's the makeup I'm living with right now! Hopefully I'll have my full stash soon hehe. I just have to get in order, I hate moving and cleaning and ugh! Wish me luck, hah!

I'll see you soon :*

My Vacation-Palette

On the 17th of July I'm going to Gran Canaria, Spain, and since it's still a month, and I can't wait to go I decided to make the vacation-palette I have had in mind.

For my palette I've used this MAC 15 Pro Palette which I've taken the separator out of so I can fit whatever I want in there.

On the inside I've but blushes, eyeshadows and my powder so I have all my powder-products in the same place. And if you were wondering, I'll have this in my carry-on when we board the plane since I don't want any of this to shatter.

The Powder I'm bringing is by Kubiss Cosmetics, and it's their Face Powder in the shade 1 Translucent. As you can see that thing is huge with 17grams of product!

These eyeshadows are all by ArtDeco, and they are pre-magnetized which is great!
L-R are the colors:
527, 235, 84, 49, 638 and 258.
These eyeshadows are really soft and pigmented, and there's a good variety of colors.

Then I have some more neutral shades, like a matte black and a light matte brown.
L-R, the colors are:
Oriflame Pure Colour Duo Eyeshadow - Harvest Browns 3286
Matte Black from the IsaDora Smokey Eyes Palette
Matte Brown from the IsaDora Matte Chocolates Palette
The white shimmery eyeshadow is from Max Factor, but I don't have the name.

Then I'm bringing this ELF Brightning Eye Color Quad in Drama which has all the colors I need for a nice smokey-eye.

For my blushes I'm bringing these which, again, are my ArtDeco. The top shade is a matte peachy-shade (16) and the other is a light rosy color with a teeny bit of shimmer (24). As the eyeshadows, these have magnets on the bottom. The blushes are alot more pigmented than they seem in the swatches, too!

That was my Vacation-Palette, guys! I'll also do posts on the brushes I'm bringing and the other makeup such as foundation and stuff. I hope you liked this post, and if you did, you can like it on facebook at the top, or follow my blog =)

FOTD - Dark Lips for Fall

I wanted to share my Face Of The Day with you guys today, and this is actually my 100TH POST, which is kind of exciting!
The look that I'm wearing today has been all over the runways for the F/W 2012/2013, and I really wanted to try it out. I wore this to school, but if it's not your thing, then try it out at home and see if you like it on your self! I actually quite like this look, and it was really fun with everyone turning around. 

Yeah, call me an attention-whore, I don't care :)
I like being noticed... In a positive way, of course.

For my skin I used L'oreal Matte Morphose Foundation with an ELF stippeling brush, and a tiny bit of Nivea Ideal Finish powder on the same stippeling brush for a smooth and even finish.

On my lips I'm wearing Max Factor Colour Elixir Lip Liner in Mauve Mistress which is a super dark, almost brown or black reddish color. Over that to make the color a little ligher and more red I'm wearing Oriflame Hydracolor Lipstick in Wine which is a dark red wine shade.

I kept my eyes super simple and plain so it wouldn't look too much with the super dark lips.
I used a bit of the foundation a base, and some of a brown eyeshadow from my NYC Metro Quartet palette in Sand Bar in the crease, just super lightly. Then I used the light pink color from the same palette as a highlight on my browbone and in the inner corners.


This is the look I wore, and I hope you liked it!

For my outfit I wore something super simple; blue jeans, light yellow singlet and a black blazer!

Thanks for reading, I'll write you later!
