Why Blogger, why?

Sorry for the quick post again. But both of my computers are f*cked up, so I can't edit, I can't blog I cant do anything! I really need a New one but I cant afford it until after christmas probably!

And also; phoneblogging sucks...

This is what it looks like when I try to write a New blogpost on my computer... If any of you knows how to fix it, please let me know? <3

You see? I can add a title but thats it... :(

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!

I got the job - I'm moving to Orlando, FL - Disney here I come!

Hi everyone! 

Just wanted to tell you that I got the job at Walt Disney World! I got the message wednesday 23rd of October, and I know I've been slow with telling you, but I wanted my friends and family to know! And then the same day my brother got to stop using the crutches, so we were super excited. I've told you about his accided before in THIS POST if you are intrested in his MC accident.

I've also written about how I found the job, and my interview experience HERE, and I'm actually planning to make a separate blog for my yeaer at Disney. If you have any cool names I'd love to hear it, the creative side of my brain has been slightly malfunctional lately.


But I'm not here to bore you with details of things I've written before. 
I'm here to tell you that I got THE JOB, and that I will leave for Florida on the 11th of February 2014. I'll be gone for an entire year, and get back home in the beginning of February 2015. I can't wait! There's a lot to do, read and prepare of course, and I'm leaving in just 3 months which is hard to believe! All my friends and family - except my grandmother, who wanted to keep me in Norway - congratulated me alot and wished me good luck - some would even love to work there themselves. And my grandmother eventually wished me luck and said she would try to visit me while I'm there =)

Ahhh, I really can't wait! I wont have the best payrate, and my privacy will be non-excstant, but it'll be the adventure of a lifetime I'm sure! When I get back I'm planning to get a small Mickey Mouse silhouette tattooed somewhere. Just small and discrete, maybe by my ankle. 

Something like this! It's so cute <3 

The tattoo will help me remember my experience and it's something to look back at when I'm old and smile - hopefully!

Really ecstatic about this for sure! 
And again; let me know if you have an idea for an awesome blogname for the experience <3
Thank you so much for reading everyone, I really apprechiate everyone of you who stop by my blog. Truly!

Holiday Haul - Tenerife Edition!

Hello everyone! I thought I would share my little vacation haul from Tenerife with you even though I didn't really get too much. In addition to the things here I also got two dresses but I didn't get a nice picture of them, and now they're in the laundry basket, so it can wait! I promise to post them later though!


Here are the smaller things I got! - I know, I'm on a project pan, but I just couldn't resist, especially since I didn't find any Catrice on Gran Canaria! And I do have a good excuse (sort of)! I actually forgot to bring a blush. I know; it shouldn't be possible. For the gel liners I don't have a good gel eyeliner. I used to use the ELF Cream Liner, but I used it up. Then I bought one from eBay, but it doesn't dry so I never use it.

Anyways! I got the awesome wallett at the Adeje-market for €7 in a booth, and I love it soooo, much! The fridge magnets I got 3 for €5, and I'm planning to give them as souvernirs to my uncle and his ladyfriend.
The brush is Essence Silky Touch Blush - Secret It Girl
The eyeliner is Catrice Made to Stay Inside Eye Highlighter Pen, as far as I know this is only avaliable in this one color.
Then there's the Catrice Prime and Fine which is a primer, but I was intrigued because it was in a pot.
The get liners are Essence Gel Eyeliner (London baby) and Catrice Gel Eyeliner in Black Jack with Jack Black (THAT NAME!).

Then the lighter I just found so awesome! It says "This is my FUCKING lighter", and I love it as well. Lighters are a constant object of loss, and even if I don't smoke I like to carry one around just in case someone else does.

Swatches! 
Catrice Made to Stay Inside Eye Highlighter Pen
Catrice Silky Touch Blush - Secret It Girl
Catrice Gel Eyeliner - Black Jack with Jack Black
Essence Gel Eyeliner - London Baby

Some swatches on the actual eye! 
I used London Baby as an eyeshadow, Black Jack with Jack Black for my winged liner and the highlighter pen for my waterline. The Made to Stay Inside Eye is surprisingly long lasting!

Then I picked up 5 pashmina scarves! The red-black gradient and the completely black scarves are 100% pashmina while the rest is 30% silk. They are super soft, and I love them so much! I'm going to give one of them to my unkle's girlfriend as I mentioned, but I can't decide which one to give to her as I really like them all! I might give away the beige or white one. I'm not such a big fan of the beige, and the white doesn't have the Pashmina label on it which annoys me!
What do you think ?

The labels of the scarves.


Then I got these fake (I know) Carrera glasses with the mirrored lenses. I know it's a little blurry, but the other photos didn't show the mirror effect. They're very nice, and unlike my aviator-style sunglasses they have a silver frame which I perfer alot to the gold in my other ones.

And these I didn't get on Tenerife, but they arrived while I was gone, so I thought I'd might as well show them here! they're the pillcases I use to make my DIY Lipstick Palettes.

That was everything I got - again except for the dresses which I'll show later. 
Thanks for reading guys =)

And FYI: I GOT THE JOB AT DISNEY! I'M MOVING IN FEBRUARY, I AM SO EXCITED HAHA! 

OK, I'll stop writeshouting at you guys now ;) Thank you so much for tuning in!

Let me know if you'll join me in this quest to minimize our makeup collections, I could definetly use the support, hah!

I hope I'll manage this, haha! I'll post updates and thoughts throughout the project to let you know how I'm doing :) Hopefully I'll get a few reviews up of the products as well! If there's anything in particular you'd like to see a review on let me know =)

See you later guys, bye!

My DISNEY Interview - Cultural Representative of Norway

I know, I've been bad again. 

But today I'm back to tell you about my interview with Disney yesterday!
I have previously told you that I have applied for a job at Disney World in Florida as a cultural representative of Norway, and yesterday I finally had my interview! I was so excited, haha! 
Sorry this post is really, really long!

I came across the job on a Norwegian website called nav.no and I applied Sunday the 22nd of September. The day after I had already gotten a mail telling me to call Stephanie for a Skype interview as quickly as possible. I called that same day. On September 30th, I got an invitation for the interview in Oslo.

Okay, so I startet out really badly by going to bed the night before way to late, and then on t
+op of that I couldn't sleep when I tried. The clock was about 3.30 am when I finally fell asleep, and I woke up at 6am by my self, half an hour before my alarm clock rang. So I got up, did my makeup, got dressed and drove to the train station. My train left at 7.38am, and I was supposed to meet at the Karl Johan Best Western hote in Oslol for a presentation and interview at 9.30, so it's safe to say I had a lot of time as it was only an hour by train.

On the train I actually met a person who I went to primary and secondary school with who was also going to the interview, so that made the time go alot quicker both on the train and when we were waiting. So at 10am we finally had our presentation. There were three Disney Employees from the US there, named Jill, Laura and Micheal, and also two girls from international services named Stephanie and Emélie from France. Stephanie is my contact when it comes to Disney, and whom I've gotten all my information from.

During the presetation the positions were explained. There are three different jobs, all of which is located at the Norwegian Pavillion of the EPCOT Sentre in Walt Disney World; Merchandise, which is basically selling merchanide, Attractions, where you run the attraction and help people in and out of it in the Norwegian Pavillion and Food and Beverage which is like a Waitress/Waiter position.

I placed Merchandice 1st, Attractions 2nd and Food and Beverage last. The pay is between $7.79 and $8.75 per hour depending on your position and you pay somewhere between $85 and $105 a week in rent, depending on the size of the apartment and how many coworker you share it with. The apartments are split between 2, 4, 6 or 8 employees and there are two people in each bedroom. Also, the rooms are split between girls and guys, and also over 21 and under 21 because of the legal drinking age in the States. In the rooms for underagers there is no alcohol permitted. If alcohol is found in an apartment everyone in the apartment will be sent home. 
Yes, it's that strict.

My interview was scheduled to start between 3pm and 4pm, but there was a little delay so I wasn't called in until half past 4, but that was okay, we were told to keep the entire day open. I think we were 50-60 people, and as far as I heard, everyone felt the interview went great, so that made it a little difficult to tell. 
I was interviewed by Laura who was so sweet! I got several questions about previous work-experiences, what I could bring with me to Disney, why I wanted to work there etc. I was also asked what I would tell about Norway to a person or group who had no previous knowledge of my country. After all, I will be representing my country when I'm there. That is, if I get the job, of course!

I really do hope I get it, it would be so much fun! And not very many people get permission to enter the US, so living there? Of course I would! We were told we would know if we get the job in the next couple of weeks so all I can do is wait. 
If I get the job, I'll probably make a blog about it, because when I applied for the job, I searched around for blogs, forums and such and it wasn't much to read. I found a blog that seemed promising, but she stopped blogging after a month in the US. There were no explanation either, but I think it could be of help to someone! Or for people back home to see how I'm doing =)

Again, sorry for the long post, haha!

Empties - Semptember 2013!

Hello guys!

Here are my empties from the month of Semptember! Really happy to see so many things here! I have a few other bits too that's soooo close to being finished, one of them being a foundation which is really exciting as I rarely finish of foundations!

In these posts I'll do a short review of the products and tell you whether I'd repurchase or not.

Anyway, let's dig in hah!

Here are all the things I've used up! Quite alot eh?

Rexona Clear Aqua Deo
I love this! I don't know why I didn't use Stick Deos before! They're so much more comfortable than a roll-on, and you don't have to wait for it to dry. I will definetly repurchase!

Define Protein Repair Conditioner
This was good, but it's a little expensive. This is about 50NOK for 250ml. The only reason I have this is because my mum got a coupon for a free bottle in the mail hah! I would repurchase if it wasn't so expensive.

PureCare Conditioner
Didn't like this. I had to use soooo much product to get any effect or soft feel to my hair. Will not repurchase this.

Wackra Facial Toner with Perfume
I used this before I went to bed, and when I woke up my face felt oily and gross. The smell is a little strong as well. I probably won't repurchase this either, maybe if I find the version with no scent.

Sensations Exfoliante Gel de Ducha (Exfoliating showergel)
I got this in Gran Ganaria to exfoliate my shoulders after I got a massive sunburn, and for my arms it worked fine, it was gentle enough to scrub sunburnt skin without hurting. When I got home and tried it on my legs it wasn't rough enough. I don't think I'll repurchase this, but it's not avaliable in Norway anyway.

Flux Mouthwash 0.2 NaF
This is what my dentist told me to use, so I guess I don't have a choice but to repurchase, hah! It's fine, and I like the squeeze-mechanism on the bottle.

Pepsodent White Now Cool Mint Toothpaste
Really like this one! Didn't taste much of a difference between this and the original, but I'd repurchase both.

OceanPotion Protective Spray Gel Oil Free SPF 15
Loved this! The continous spray of the product made it so easy to apply and reapply during the day! Really like this and these types of sunscreens in general. Would repurchase!

Sensations Toallitas Desmaquillantes (Makeup Remover Wipes)
They work fine, but they smell so strong! Won't repurchase for that reason.

Gunry Avsminkingsservietter (Makeup Remover Wipes)
These are cheap and they work fine with no strong smell, so I think I will repurchase these next time I go to Sweden!

Soft Styles Bomullspads (cottom pads)
Definelty will repurchase.

Comodynes Convenient Cosmetics Easy Peeling New Face Effect
I think these are way to rough for my face, so I use them on my legs instead, which they work fine for, but I will not repurchase these.

ELF Eyelid Primer - Sheer
Love this stuff! I've probably finished 3 or 4 tubes, and I will get it again and again and again!

Carmex Lipbalm
This was great too, the only thing I didn't like was the pot. It's so unsanitary.

L'oreal Resist & Shine Titanium Nailpolish - 735
This is so pretty! It's a black with gold shimmer in it. If I find it for a reasonable price I'll buy it again for sure!

Eucerin Complete Repair Intensive Lotion
This was very good, and the bottle of 30ml lasted for a surprisingly long time! But it's very expensive so I won't buy it as I don't have dry skin.

H&M Nailpolish - Red
This was really good! It was my go-to red nailpolish,a nd it came in a set, so I probably wont get ahold of it again. But H&M polishes are very good anyways, so I might pick up another red from them once I've used up a few of the ones I have already!

H&M Permanent Hair Color - 7/45 Copper Red
This is great! It smelled really strong, but I love the color and I have a back-up! As long as I want my red hair I'll get this!

That's it you guys! 18 items, I don't think that's too bad! And I can't wait to go out with the trash now, I just love it when I can throw empty items out, haha!

Do you like Empties-posts?

Max Factor Haul!

Hello guys!

I recently picked up a few bits from Max Factor. You all know by now that I love makeup surprisebags, so when my local perfumery had a Max Factor bag for 250NOK with a value of 1000NOK, I just had to get one! Each bag had 6 items and I picked one at random...

Here are all the items I got! I was very excited to see the Max Factor CC cream in the bag, but unfortunatley, it's in the shade 69 Medium and is too dark... I think I'm going to try it again in the summer, or maybe if I get the job at Walt Disney I might get a tan from the Florida sun! Then I got a Max Effect Mini Nailpolish in the shade 38 Purple Haze which is very pretty! I have it on my nails right now, hehe!

Here you can see the CC Cream to the left. Clearly a little too dark!
Then I got a lipstick in the shade 630 Eternal Flame which is very pretty, and a Wild Shadow Pot in the shade 60 Brazen Charcoal which is also very pretty, but I haven't gotten to try it properly!

I also got two mascaras! The top one is the Wild Mega Volume Volumising Mascara in Black. The wand seems okay, but not as good as I'd like. Also the formula is a little wet for me, so I'm going to let it dry a little and see if it works better then. The same problem I have with the second mascara, which is the Eye Brightning Tonal Black Volumising Mascara for Brown Eyes. Not a huge fan of that wand either, even though I tend to perfer plastic-wands. But I'll let it sit for a while to let the formula get drier and hopefully it'll work better then :)

That was all I got people! If you want a review of anything just let me know!

Bye guys!

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 :*

Why I've been MIA - My sh*tty August

Hello everyone! 

As you might have notieced I've been MIA since the middle of August. There's been several not so fun things happening which led me to have a lot of other things on my mind.

First off, on the 9th of August, my brother was in an accident. He drives a 125cc MC, and on his way to work in Oslo he crashed with a bus. He had a lot of damage and broken bones which led for him to be in put in a coma for a few hours. The same day he had two operation because of his broken jaw and femoral ( the bone in his thigh). He also had a bleeding in his brain and kidney and two broken ribs.

Here's the X-ray of his thigh. You can see it's a very bad break.

After a week at Ullevål Hospital he was transferred to Gjøvik because it wasn't so serious anymore and his life wasn't in danger anymore. Because of his broken jaw he was not able to chew, so for the past 6 weeks he's only been eating yoghurt, porridge and soups. He's lost 15 kilos in the past month and a half, and he's still not able to walk. He's using crutches, as he's been doing since the accident. At the check-up he had today he was told that he's still not fit to walk, so he's going to spend another 6-8 week on crutches. After almost a week at the Gjøvik hospital he was sent home.

Then, exactly two weeks after his accident on the 23rd I was driving to visit him when my car caught fire. I noticed some smoke and a bad smell, so I opened the hood of my VW Polo and I saw the flames. I closed the hood and ran to the closest house to get a fire extinguisher. We emptied it on the car, but it didn't work so I got my stuff which I luckily managed to save.

As you can see there's really not that much left of it.

Then on the same night, my boyfriend and I broke up, so then I had to start moving. Today it's been a month and as I'm typing this I'm also carrying things out to my car to go to my mum's. Luckily we're both still very good friends and there's not hard feelings, so it's not really been a problem living together while we've been moving things.

I hate moving, it's so much stress! But at least I have a room to go home to even though it's really small and I really don't want to move home! 

Then my mum's boyfriend managed to back into another car, but that's not really something big. Then last week he went to visit his mother, and found her outside the house in pain. She'd broken her hip. Also our landlord was sent to the hospital a week ago with a really hard stomack-ache which they still don't know what is. 

It's safe to say it's been a rough month! But now I'm back, and as soon as I'm all in at my mother's place and have gotten in order I'll be back to doing reviews ! 

Oh, and I also dyed my hair in a red copper-shade! I'm really happy with it, and I think I'll keep this color for a while!
Not the best picture, but you get the point! I used a hair dye from H&M called Red Copper =)

On a better note, though, I applied for a job in Florida at the Epcot Sentre in Walt Disney World. It would be so much fun to live and work in the US for a year! Such an experience! I had a skype interview earlier today and I think it went well, so hopefully I'll get a room at the Norwegian Pavillion! 

But that was what I had to say for now! Now I'll drive my new car, a VW Golf, to my mum's and start to get my room in order =) 
I'll talk to you soon!

Vacation Makeup Haul - Essence, Clinique, NYC and more!

Follow my blog with Bloglovin
Hey guys! Finally I have my internet back! It took forever, let me tell you!
I'm back from Gran Canaria, so from now on there's no pre-written posts =) I got back at around midnight between the 31st of July and the 1st of August, and I've been so taken up grocery-shopping and washing clothes that I haven't had the opportunity to do a post until now. But here it is, my haul, and it's massive, haha!
