"No excuses"-eyeliner + BOY london cap

HELLO!

I am back, after having not had time to blog for ages! I am so sorry, I've been busy and down, put I have some time this weekend to post something, so I am taking the chance! 

This time I will push the reviews aside, because I feel that recently it's all I do. 

I got an idea that popped up in my head when my girlfriends started complaining about how they just can't change their everyday-looks, and I went "huh?"
Power of makeup girls! Just something as simple as different eyeliner makes a whole new person (in my opinion), and it can tone up and tone down your look, and make it new

I will be giving you, all my girlfriends, and every girl who ever thought their everyday look was boring some ideas on how to spice up your look! Here are 7 ways to do easy, fast and everyday-friendly styles of eyeliner! 

Here's my eye with nothing: Very boring, small and I have the average scandinavian eye and eyeshape. Booh! 

By the way, the quality of these pictures are NOT very well, but I hope you can bear with me. It was super hard to flash my eyes way up close, so I had to crop the pictures a lot. Truely sorry! ♥ 


Let's get on some eyeliner! 

#1 "The basic line"


Pale no-mascara lashes hahah ~ This line is the basic and probably most used line. Simply just line your eyes as close to your lashes as possible! It's basic and the quickest, and opens your eyes and adds some focus and depth. 

#2 Cat-eyes 


Very quick as well. Super easy with an angled eyeliner brush, but hard to get even on both eyes. Takes a little practise the first times, but looks lovely on almost all eyeshapes. You can make the line smaller or longer depending on what you wear and your eyeshadow. I love this eyeliner with red tinted lips! 

#3 "Lower lashes"


To spice this up even more add some colour in the "hole" between the lines! It makes your eyes big and lively, and drags a lot of attention in the daily life! Using a brush it's not hard to master. 


#4 Egypt eye


Cat eye, egypt eye, arabic eye. This style has many names. It's cool and stylish, and makes your eyes deepset and gives them a boom of attention! This type changes the eyeshape the most in my opinion. It looks pretty and excotic with some red/yellow/orange eyeshadow colours as well, and it's even better for the tan people, or brown eyes! 

#5 Dragged downwards


I think this is also called "tired eyes". It can give you the puppy eye effect, and can be worn very cute. Looks great with a pair of falsies applied at the end too, that will really give the puppy eyes effect! 


#6 "Ulzzang"-inspired puppy eyes 


This is the base-eyeliner for when I make my usual ulzzang-inspired look. It's very thick and heavy, but add some sparkle/shimmer or highlight and you quickly will make everyone go "awww". And it takes only five minutes! 

#7 Winged eyeliner


Similar to the cat-eye, but instead of going upwards, it's more "straightened out". It's super everyday-friendly and adorable. Can be even more simple by making the line less thick or the wing shorter. 



So that's it! Now you will not have have any excuse for showing up with the same look every single day, right? Go ahead and try something new! Whether it's your eyeliner, a new lipstick or a blush, don't look the same everyday! 

Also, I just recieved my BOY london hat, so I will shortly show off/review it, because I am so happy about it!

I love BOY londons collections, and I love the brand. They make the most awesome clothing! I finally recieved my cap from Ebay, and the quality is top despite the price being so low! Inside the cap the BOY london cap is printed all over, and it's unisex size, hence a little big for my small head. 

It's a simple cap with the letters "BOY" all across it, and underneath the cap, it says "GIRL". Total love! Comes in several colours, but most "famous" in black and white (this is the white version). 

So are you a BOY? 


Or a GIRL?

That's all for this entry. Stay tuned, pinky promise I will be more active!

Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint Review x 2

Hi everyone!

Sorry for the lack of posting. 
But I for once have a valid excuse other than my lazyness, because not only did I work really hard on this review - the whole weekend I fought intensevly with a virus on my pc! Not before today I got a friend to help me, so super much thank you to Steven! I owe him! But my PC is finally up and works properly again. 

Now I am here with not one, but two reviews! I will be reviewing Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint in the orange and red tint. You have seen my orange tint from my korean haul. I recieved my red tint too late, hence I didn't have it yet! 

Let's get to the review, right? 



Etude House Fresh Chery Tint in red and orange:





Orange: 




(Quite obviously taken at two different times haha) 

And the two babies: 



Orange:



Red: 




Effectivity & Colour: 

Orange:✦ ✦ ✧ ✧ ✧ Red: ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✧

The orange works wonders, no doubt. It makes your lips pop, it's shiny and cute, and perfect for pouty lips. But the colour makes me so unsatisified. There is barely any colour at all, especially compared to the red one. Maybe it's just my naturel colour of my lips, but the colour is really sensitive. You need to bring your tint in your purse. It is not water, food, or kissing-resistant! 

However, the red tint has amazing colour! Very sharp and dolly, and very resistant. Actually be a little careful, because it almost staints your skin. I showered, brushed my teeth and slept, and the day after it was still there! 

Price:

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦  ✧

Very cheap, but also no colour. Will not repurchase in this orange, but possible in red or another colour. A nice amount of product in the container. 

Smell: 

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✧

I like it. It's a articifial candy-smell, it's quite strong, but it will fade out eventually. I like!

Texture: 

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✧  

I don't know what tint is "supposed" to feel like, but I like the texture a lot. Non-sticky. Non-watery. And not thick at all. The texture is "soft" as I would describe it. Very nice to wear on the lips. It's also not as drying!

Design/Packaging:

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ 

Etude House - you never fail at cute packaging. Never. I even keep the packages I recieved them in, because I love the small little cherries and the pink box, it's too cute to throw away! The bottle itself has soft curves and its beautifully shaped, cute designed. 

With the orange tint I created a summery naturel look, which is kinda fun and sweet, and all over innocent. It's sheer, almost nude, and fits many colours!

With the red one I made a sexy, adult look! Can you see how I go from my ordinary age to like 20+? Power of makeup!




Which one is your prefered look? Stay tuned and enjoy november!

Wishlist: Things I want, but can't afford ~

Hi there. 

Thought I stopped blogging? Sorry about the lack! And especially lack of quality posts.. The world of me is just rambling all together right now. I stress about:

- school, work, parents, fitness and just the daily challenges
- Being horribly sick with a bad cold + getting a psycho liprash. 
- Other private stuff
- My PC messing up (lost a lot of important things rebooting it, it unistalled xiuxiue meitu which I use for my blog-pictures, skype, google chrome and everything else.) 

So, I am truely sorry but I am currently in a state where I can only deliver 1-2 posts a week. Again, truely sorry! I hope times will change and I have a chance of blogging more often again. We will see. 

This time, I will share my currently wishlist with you guys! These products are mainly products I really want, but cannot afford - so, of course, I wish for them! 

So before I start, I will confess one thing: I. Am. A. Brandwhore. Expensive, luxury brands means so much to me. It's kinda embarassing to admit, but I know I am not alone about the guilt! Alright, let's start:


#1
I've been loving these for quite some time. The naturel warm colours are beyond gorgeous. I tried the eyeshadows when I went to Sephora in Paris, and the quality is lovely. Even the brushes are so good! Want! 


#2

Clarisonic PLUS til ansigt og krop i PINK

I love these kind of electric brushes. This is their face and body brush in pink, and I want it so bad. It's bigger and better than the one I already have, which is a cheap facial brush only. But, it's so expensive too, it's more than 1/3 of my monthly salary! (I only work part-time). Maybe someday I will have it in my hands!


#3


Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté Shine 

Perfect shade, perfect design, perfect brand, perfect lipstick.


#4

M·A·C Caramel Sundae Eyeshadow from the "Archie's Girls" Collection



These colours are beyond adorable. And I'm secretly a fan of Archie's girls... I love Betty the most! 


#5


Lancôme Blush Subtil Rouge


 Really adorable and beautiful pink blush. Definitely a must have! 

because I already own their big powder brush, which looks exactly like them. I love their whole "teddy bear" colletion, because the quality is so high, and the design is awfully cute! It's really pricey though. 

That's all for this time! Do you like or wish for any of these items above? What does your wishlist look like?
