Nail Tutorial: Sunshine Daisies

Hello there,
Summer is knocking on the door, so I came up with this cute daisy design, and funky citrus colours. Try it out yourself, it can be done with all the colours of the rainbow, so you don't have to have the same ones as I am using. :-)

LUSH! I just can't get enough

So, I had decided no more LUSH in a while, but I have to admit that I am a weak weak person when it comes to online shopping, and LUSH is just so addictive. In this video I claim it will be the last haul in a while.. But I have another order coming in the mail already. Oh well, I guess there are worse things one could get addicted to. :-)
Enjoy the video, reviews and stuff is coming up. Have a great day! :-)

Pearl with Black Lace Nail Tutorial

I love this look and wear it a lot. You can play around with colours and mix and match them as you please. Hope you like this quick tutorial :-)

Here's another colour-combination I have done :-)

Favorite foundations for fair skin

Hi everyone,
If you are as pale as I am, you will know how difficult it can be to find the right shade of foundation. Everything just seem to be too dark! I have typical nordic skin, and have tried A LOT of foundations. I thought I would share with you, good foundations that I have found actually match a fair skinned person. Ofcourse you always need to match a foundation excatcly to your skintone, but I hope this gives you inspiration!

More LUSH stuff

OK, I have decided NOT to post anything about Lush in a little while, I went a little crazy! ;) But I hope you enjoy these two videos! :-)

Tutorial: Three ways to fill in your eyebrows

Hi everyone.
Today I am going to show you how to fill in your eyebrows, and actually give you the option to try three different ways to find out which suits you best. The most important thing is to keep it natural- I hate to break it to you girls, the look below is a no-no. Shaved brows with a pinstriped line is not where you want to go.

Instead, create a natural brow without going too thin. Always pluck underneath the eyebrow! Create an arch with the highest point being above the outer corner of your iris.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the tutorial on how to fill in your brows. :-) 

LUSH soap review

Here's a review of the soaps I have tried so far from LUSH, more videos and stuff is coming up! Hope you like LUSh as much as me, I really like the whole company policy with organic ingredients and fair trade buying.
The soaps featured in the review: Honey I washed the kids, Lemslip, Ring of roses, Rockstar.

Gradient Pink ---> Red nails with glitter

This is such a cool look! It's really different, the glitter is ofcourse optional but if you're going out this will really make any outfit pop. Also, you can use any colours you want- The most important thing is to have three shades that go from light to dark in the same colour.

Here's what I used: OPI base and topcoat, babypink nail polish, hot pink nailpolish, dark red nailpolish, glitter nail polish with different size glitter in it, a make up sponge.

Lets get started: Apply basecoat and let dry. Make a few drops of the babypink nail polish on a work sheet, dip in the tip of the sponge and apply to the nails concentrating on the bottom of the nail. Then do the same thing with the hot pink, but concentate on the middle part of the nail, make sure you blend it will into the baby pink to create that gradient effect. Do the same with the red nail polish, but concentrate it on the tip of the nail. If you get a harsh line between the colours, apply the lightest colour slighty over the darker. When you get a good result, let it dry and apply the glitter nail polish on the whole nail. Lastly, apply the topcoat and you're done! :-)

 

Cool nails without the glitter

LUSH review

Hi everyone,
I have started using the LUSH products I recently got in the mail. This is the first mini-review of the Dream Cream and the H'suan Wen Hua hairtreatment. I have enver smelled anything worse than that hairtreatment, it literally makes me gag everytime I have smelled it- Needless to say, I only used it once before it hit the garbagebin. No matter how good a thing is, if I can't take the smell I can't use it. and actually, I didn't find it all that fantastic anyway.
The dream cream is actually growing on me, I've used for about a week now and I LOVE the way it makes my skin feel. So soft and hydrated, still I don't like the smell very much. Anyway, check out the video ;)

Cute summer nails

Hi everyone,
This is a really simple yet cute look for spring/summer- everyone can do it!

What you need: A good base and top coat (I use OPI's). White nail polish, purple nail polish, pink nail polish (of course you can use the colours you wish for the flower), a toothpick or dotting tool.

Lets get started: Apply the base coat, let dry. Apply two coats of the white nail polish, let dry. Cut the toothpicks sharp end off, dip it in the purple nail polish (a good idea to make a few drops on an old magazine or a piece of plastic for better control), make five dots in a circle to create the flower. Finally, put a pink dot in the middle. Lastly, apply topcoat and your'e done!

My favorites: Clarins Wonder Perfect Mascara

Hey everyone.
I believe mascara is the most important part of any make up routine. Without it my lashes look really thin and uninteresting but they magically transform when the brush of a good mascara hits them. I recently discovered this Clarins mascara and want to share it with you. Check out the video! 

LUSH haul

I remember going to London many years ago, and going to the LUSH store in Covent Garden. I found it so interesting, the smell of all the different things overpowered me and the beauty of the products was amazing. Anyway, I think I only got a few things back then, and I have not bought any since (I probably would have if there was a store where i live). I watched a couple of videos on Youtube recently, with girls being all excited about LUSH and decided to re-discover this great brand again.
I ordered from the UK LUSH website, it is much more inexpensive than the scandinavian sites, my package arrived in about a weeks time. Check out my video about it and stay tuned for reviews and all that good stuff!

Oh- And here's a link to LUSH if you get inspired! http://www.lush.co.uk/

Pink and black lace nail tutorial

I recently discovered the fun of nail designs and after watching about a million nail tutorials on Youtube I decided to try out some designs of my own.
Here's a really fun look, I did it with hot pink and a silver black, but you can do the design with about any colours you like. For example, white and pastel pink would look cute for summer. You get the idea! I didn't take pictures of the steps which I should have done, but I will try to explain it as simply as possible.

Here's what you need: A good base coat, hot pink and black nail polish, a good top coat (I use OPI base and topcoat) and a toothpick!

Let's get started:
Paint your nails with the base coat and let dry, then the pink, let dry. Paint the tip of your nails in the black colour and let dry.
Take your black nail polish and put a few drops on a piece of paper og plastic. Dip your toothpick in it and start drawing the small arches along the black tip, so it resembles lace. If your toothpick is very pointy, you kan clip off the very end of it. Finish off with small dots underneath the lacedesign. Let dry and apply your top coat. Voila! Your'e done! :-)
