Personal Post: Eating w. Friends!

Hi guys.

A quick little update/personal post. 

About two weeks ago I went to a really awesome asian restaurant. I'm so unhappy I already forgot the name! 

I went there with my beautiful girlfriend and another friend of ours. It was great fun and I swear I've never had so much food for so little money! 

Each plate was 50-60Kroner (9-11$) and the plates were huge, I swear! It's not very well pictures on the photos but there's a whole lot of food on our plates. 

My friend is such a beauty, look at her! 


I'm getting more into blogging and feeling a lot better because the weather is slowly turning warmer and lighter. 

It took me quite a while to get through with both a bad winter-depression (I'm not medicated) and a hurtful breakup. I'm not willing to share the reason for my breakup, but I broke up in january. I'm not fully healed, but I have a "friend" who helps me forget him, and he is by far more loving and positive! That makes my heart smile. ♥ 

School's almost over, summer is getting closer. I'm trying to not worry about the small stuff and focus on becoming a lot happier and motivated! 

And during my winter-depression I gained A LOT. I am still scared to step on my weight so I can't say how much - but it's too much. So as soon as possible, I'll get back on track! So hopefully you guys will see more fitness-related posts in the future. I also bought a 10-day diet plan, and I'll see how effective it is. Can't wait!


As for now, have a good time!

[Review] Holika Holika Baby Silky Foot-Mask

WARNING! REALLY GROSS PICTURES OF MY FEET, BE AWARE!

Hi guys!

I'm here with a review and honestly, kind of an experiment for me. A fun one!

Click images to enlarge.


Some time ago I bought the Holika Holika Baby Silky Foot One Shot Peeling. That has got to be the longest product-name EVER. 




Basically this is a mask, just like those for your face. But these are for the feet!

I bought two, and together with them came a cute little sample, and I have no idea what it is since I obviously can't read korean - but I can still love the wonderful effects of korean products!

In each package comes these cute little "feet" with liquid inside and of course the masks to put on your feet. 




So what now?: 
- Start out by putting on the foot-mask
- Pour liquid into foot-masks (one for right, one for left).
- Wait 1.5 hours
- Remove and dispose masks. 
- Massage feet to let left-over liquid soak in



Let's first take a before picture: 



I'm a runner and it's no secret that runners have the ugliest feet. You can see they are very dry, but not cracked. And miscoloured/harmed too. My poor feet! TT^TT

Time to do something about it! 

Let's see how silly we look now. (Oh my gosh, my paleness is awful T^T) 




It's best to sit with your PC or watch TV cause it's a rather long time and with these things it's hard to move.  

Now: here's the magic. There's absolutely NO RESULT after use. 

Whaaaat? Then why purchase? 

Because, AFTER FOUR DAYS YOUR FEET WILL PEEL BY ITSELF!

When I reached day 3 I thought to myself: This is so stupid, they look the same, bad purchase. 
Then day 4 I had to swallow my words. It was peeling by itself! Under here you see first day 4 and day 5. (Gross photo - warning!)


 

  
Ewwww! Nasty! 

The product DOES say that on the fourth day you feet will peel - and on the seventh day they'll stop! 

It's slightly scary, yet really fun to try this out. And as promised, when I reached day 7 the peeling stopped all by itself.

It's suggested that you don't peel off your own skin from day 4 - 7.


Effectivity: 

✦ ✦ ✦ ✧ 

It's kind off hard to say what I expected from this product. The peeling went fine, it was absolutely painfree, and my feet became smooth!

Price:

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦

Extremely cheap. Only a few dollars, so I'm glad I bought two!


Design/Packeging:

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ 

Holika Holika managed to make a mask designed for your feet to peel look super cute and girly. The blue-rosy design is so adorable along with the cute little baby-foot!  

Cons: 

The smell from the liquid is very similar to the smell of acetone/nailpolish-remover, and that grosses me out. It smells like it's filled with chemicals, yuck! And the peeling on your feet can get messy in your house if you don't wear socks. 


Overall:
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ 

I'll repurchase when the other one is gone!

SPRING LIPS - Lipsticks & Glosses

Hi guys!

A few things are still getting fixed on my blog, but this is how it is for now. If you like it, feel free to tell me in the comments, it will be greatly appreciated!

Still having a few troubles with the "Comments RSS" and "Entries RSS" sections, so just ignore those for now. 



You can click the pictures to enlarge.

It's turning into spring now, the weather is getting warmer and really sunny, but the flowers haven't come out just yet. 
I am and have for long been a super lipgloss- and lipstick fan. Do you guys have favorite colours this spring? I like to save the darker colours for winter and wear some light, naturel lips during spring, and then more neon-colours (especially orange!) in summer. 

First here's my nature coloured lips ony wearing Maybelline Baby Lips 


First lipsticks are from Dior, both very cute pink colours! It's Dior lipstick #503 and #517



Next one is a gift from a friend, a Chanel-lipgloss. It has almost no colour, but a lot of shine and glitter, and it's super sweet and naturel!



Etude House Milky Lipgloss is the cutest gloss ever, and for a gloss rather pigmented too. It gives you ultimative dolly-looking lips! So, so adorable! And also good for people with small lips like mine.



Heading towards the end, here's Etude Houses' liptints in the orange and red colour. (They have such strange name, I can never remember them, but they are easy to recognize.) The orange one is naturel and subtle, and red for a pop of colour. Both are so nice and effective as tints!



The last one is the super pigmented liptint from TonyMoly. Really good for a tint, I'm always amazed!


Hope you like it, tell me which one is your favorite! 

Here's all together: 




My favorite is probably the Etude House Milky Gloss. I love the cute, glossy-effect, but it lasts quite short sadly. 


Alright, that's all for this post, I will be back soon!

Blog under construction!!!

Hi guys!

Sorry for being quite a bad blogger recently. But I've been busy searching up HTML-tutorials and whatnot, because I wanted to change my blog into a more professional-not-so-shitty looking blog! The blog is now ready to undergo a hopefully big construction, so if I have a glitch, or something may look weird, fear not! I am trying to fix it all, and I'll start blogging properly again when I'm all finished, but it hopefully won't be too long. 

Wish me the best of luck in my journey. This is by the way the first time I do something as complicated as this, so if it turns out weird or wrong, forgive me. I'll try my best to fix all the mistakes I am going to make hahaha ~

Untill then, please keep waiting!

TonyMoly Crystal Blusher Review

Hello everyone. 

Long time no see! This is my second last review from my korean haul from 2013. Almost done with it. It took ages! The next review is the Etude House Tearliner, and this review is the TonyMoly Crystal Blusher. 

Click photos to enlarge!

Here's some pictures with and without flash. 


The pictures I had of the blush from when it was new is sadly gone, due to having my old harddisc killed. So these are from when it's already used. It was of course new and untouched when it arrived!


The colour is really hard to swatch, and I therefore can't show you the colour on the skin. I apologize for this. 

Effectivity & Colour: 

✦ ✦ ✦ ✧ 
The colour is beautiful carrot-orange, in a way that it fits my skin, and I like it. It has some shimmer/glitter in it too, so it's not matte if that's what you'd go for. However it's not visible on pictures, only in real. It stays on all day, however not waterproof/resistant. The colour is super nice and does match the pictures though!  

Price:

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦

Very cheap for what I consider a huge amount of product. The blush is very big, but costs close to nothing. Yay! 


Texture: 

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✧  

Touching it with my fingers it has a smooth and soft texture, it feels just like a highclass product actually. It's a supernice texture for brushing too, and it feels light on the skin. 

Design/Packeging:

✦ ✦  ✧ ✧ 

The design is not as cute, but it's very simple and pretty. 

Cons: 

Can't really think of any! I would repurchase this another time. 


That's my ultra-short review for now, hope you enjoy. 


Ending with an old picture from 2011, because I don't have anything else right now. Have a nice day!

Etude House Drawing Eyebrow Pencil Review

Hello everyone!

I am finally back with a review from this korean haul in 2013. This time it's the eyebrown pencil from the popular South Korean brand Etude House! 

Let's first take some pictures of the product! I think the design is adorable ♥ 

The colour is brown, so I'm sorry that it looks so dark, almost black, on the pictures! I have trouble taking pictures because as soon as I am home from school it's already dark here in the wintery Scandinavia. So please forgive me that, but it really is brown!

The pencil works kind off like a duo-pencil, the browpencil in one end and a small eyebrow brush in the other. Very perfect, but not very travelsize-friendly. 




Close-up for up the pencil. Quite a decent amount of product in it! (Not only what you can see ofcourse)

Close-up of eyebrow brush.

Alright, let's try the product. Sorry for the blurryness of the first picture. My naturel eyebrow is slightly lighter than my haircolour since I trim it, it's a little messy and has no shape. I don't pluck my brows anymore, because I usually conceal the extra hairs or have my eyebrows really thick.

I am a huge fan of thick, straight korean eyebrows it gives me a young and innocent look! But I am also a fan of the arched, sexy look. So I'm gonna challenge the eyebrow pencil to both! 

Naturel brow: 


So I hope you get the idea even though this picture is blurry. The rest is not, so don't worry. It's light, out of shape, and no way how I like it. I put lots of focus into my brows because they do a lot for a face. Never forget your brows! 

Korean-inspired straight eyebrows:


Groomed and coloured in brows. It honestly looks better without the crazy flash, but as there is no sun to see it's just not possible. 


Arched brow: 


I do this when I want to have a party, mature or sexy look. The straight look belongs to my everyday. I groomed them upwards instead of straight and filled them in more than my naturel brows so they look thicker. 


So what do I think? 

Effectivity & Colour: 

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✧

It's very resistant and stays all day, but not waterproof. It's gives a lovely colour and can be build up, it can be naturel as well as dramatic. The brush is super great! It's a bit harsh but perfect for grooming your brows in place. Use hairspray or browgel if you want it to stick all day, or spring it in your purse.  

Price:

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦

Super cheap product! But if you use it everyday it's also soon goon, but you can easily afford it, and the quality fits the price (the quality is not super, but it's perfectly average). 


Texture: 

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✧  

I don't know how to describe this. It's a quite harsh product, yet it's softer than your typical drugstore eyebrow pencil. It's comfortable, and you don't have to drag it against your skin to get the colour from it. 

Design/Packeging:

✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ 

It's simple, it's duo-function, it's cute just like all Etude House-products! Would love it to have a more travel-friendly size though. 

Cons: 

I actually had to buy this twice, because it breaks so easily! I may have done something wrong, but each time I managed the break the pencil, it would fall out and be useless. But that's really all I can think of. 5 stars to Etude House! 



That's all for this review, thanks for reading!

Am back! + Small update

Hello everyone!

So I finally got my PC back! I should complain for them taking so long. I send my PC in before christmas and got it a few days ago (picked it up yesterday). So long for just replacing a harddisc! Sadly it also means everything on my PC is gone. All 10.000+ pictures, so I'll have to take new. Also all my exam documents, and whatnot. Very annoying indeed, but I cannot do anything about it anyway. I'm just happy to have my own PC back! 

It's been quite some time since I've been blogging, so what has been happening meanwhile? Both good and bad I can tell you. 
I spend christmas pretty calm, and I won't make a christmas haul as I only got things I need for moving out, like kitchen materials and such stuff. Pretty boring, but I wish to move out as soon as possible. 

My boyfriend visited me here from 26th of December and untill 4th of January, and I had a lot of lovely days with him as usual! We spend the New Years at a friends house, in Germany. So different from usual! Since he left I haven't slept much, I've been stressing around, especially with 2 x exams and lots of driving (my driving test is tomorrow. I probably will fail again - sigh). The thing is that I am really running out of luck. I failed school miserable this year, which is my final year and final chance, so my chances of getting a job when I get out are very, very small. Other than that, I am running out of money, all spend on drivers license. Life is no fun for me anymore, and even forcing a smile is getting rough.
Sorry for all these depressing updates, but I prefer that over lying to my followers and readers. I hope I see lighter times soon, and I am getting help so don't worry. I just wanted to update you guys on what's going on currently, and also why I might blog less and with lesser enthausism. It will come back, I promise, I just have some dark times I must get over right now, so bear with me! 

Anyways, I hope you all had a great christmas, new year, a nice holiday and a better start on 2014 than I did. Take care of yourself!

I will upload my next post, hopefully a review from my korean haul bag in 2013, that I never finished. It will be up as soon as possible! 


Here's just some random holiday-day photos so this post is less boring ~~ 

Random OOTD from the weeks with my boyfriend. 

 My makeup and bow-hairstyle on christmas eve!

 My beloved teddy that was my christmas-present from my boyfriend. It's more than 50cm big, and it's super huge and fluffy. I spray it with his perfume almost daily, and it's always right beside me when I sleep!

Shopping with my boyfriend in Fördepark, Germany. He bought me the cute pink pants, and I love them!

 Thought I'm not really a fan of Starbucks, nor taking pictures of Starbucks, I found the smiley-thing so cute! 

One of many stupid, pointless selfies in the car. We went somewhere every single day. Lots of car-driving requieres selfies! 

 My new years eve-outfit. Kitty shoes, black jeans, a korean clubbing shirt, bow-hairstyle and my korean bag. 
 Stupid selfie with one of those yummy chinese boxes. Got lots and lots of unhealthy chinese food!

 Yummy fried shrimps I shared with boyfie. So yummy with the garlic sauce!

Love. Yay


Nomnom. Foodporn! Gained quite some weight that I am losing here in january. (Already a kg lost so far, so it's all good.)

Ending the post with some love: 


Thanks for reading. Bye for now!
