Hi, I'm sorry that I haven't blogged for like a month. But to be hornest I have been tired of this blog for a while. I'm not really sure why, but I just feel that it doesn't really "fit" me anymore. But I miss blogging, so I have created a new blog, it's called Lychee9 (Link here!), and I 've used alot of time to come up with a name. I hope you all will follow it instead of this one, since I will not blog on this anymore. I won't delete it, because there is some posts on here, that I think that some people might find helpfull. Maybe one day I will blog on here again, but for now Lychee9 will be my blog.

My christmas look - Outfit and Makeup

2010-12-25T20:24:00.000+01:00

Merry Christmas everybody!

I had the most lovely evening with my family last night!

For my outfit I keept it simple and quite christmas-y (because of the red cardigan right?)

Red cardigan - Vero Moda

Black dress - H&M

I love this black dress, it was only 180 DKK in H&M. I really like the detailling on the top part, very flattering!

I keept my makeup very neutral and simple, no smokey here!

Lid: Urban Decay eyeshadow "Sin"

Crease: Urban Decay eyeeshadow "Smog"

Highlight and inner corner: MAC "Dazzlelight"

Upper waterline: L'oreal Eye Designer "413 Ebony"

Mascara: L'oreal Volume Million Lashes

Blush: MAC "Melba"

Highlight face: MAC "Dazzlelight"

Lips: Merry Cranberry Lip Balm from The Body Shop

I didn't want to use a heavy lipstick or gloss. So I used this lipbalm from The Body Shop "Merry Cranberry lip balm" (From their christmas line 2009), but on the lips it looks almost like a gloss.

It's like a very sheer red color with golden shimmer.

(The have one with the same sent this year, but it's like a babypink, not a berry red like this)

Tomorrow I'm going to a big christmas dinner with my dads family, it's always alot of fun!

<3 <3 <3

Because snow is bad...

2010-12-22T23:23:00.000+01:00

I'm sorry, but lately my blog has not exactly been a priority. But I will do something about it! it must be my New Year's resolution to blog about four times a week. Is it good enough? or is it too much / little?

Lately, homework, Christmas stress, too much snow and winter in general, taken too much of my energy. but I hope to have lifted the mood and get a lot of energy during the Christmas holidays, and be 100% ready for school AND the blog in the new year.

I am looking for a new year, a new beginning - in every way!

I hope everyone enjoys friends and family's company, even if you don't celebrate Christmas! :D

When I was a kid ..

2010-12-17T20:37:00.000+01:00

.. I had the most lovely blonde hair.

*insert baby picture*

Light, blond hair and very Scandinavian, I loved my hair .. But now it has become a very dark blond between thing. And I've been tired of it for a while now, so on Monday I took a certain decision and bought my first hair dye. I will not pay for my hairdresser to do it, so we'll see how it goes. My mom has promised to help me with it this weekend. :)

A picture of me from a party last weekend, my hair has become quite long lately.

I was looking for a color close to the color I had then I a baby, but a bit darker.

I selected this one from L'óreal from their Excellence creme line in the color 10 extra light blond.

I got this one, mostly because of the picture on the front - and the back.

I HOPE to get the lightest "after color", I would love to have that hair color! :D

I'm not shure if one box of hairdye would be enough, so I got two boxes of hairdye and shampoo + conditioner for colortreated hair, so now I'm ready to GO BLONDE! :D

Have a nice weekend!

November favorites!! :)

2010-12-01T22:37:00.000+01:00

Hello! :)

It's time for my favorites for November, I have some brand new favorites, and some old things I have falled in love with again.

This speaker was actually my birthday gift from my parrents, and I absolutly love it! Before I got this, I listend to my music on my computer, but this have such a nice sound!

And another favorite is Bruce Springsteen, I know it's kind of a weird artist to like then you're 17 years old, but my mom had one of his album called "The Rising", and I really like his music! My favorite songs from the album is "Lonesome day", "Into the fire" and "Countin' on a Miracle".

I been loving The Body Shops Lip Butters lately also. This one I have been using all month. But for my birthday I got the with Wild cherry and one with Pink Grapefruit. And I love them, I always have one in my purse! I will do a review on them later on, so I won't tell to much now :)

Ohh! I have missed this SO much! I got it the first time in June, and I finnished it quite fast. But the other day I got it again, and I'm in love all over again! It's the Volume Million Lashes from L'Òreal Paris. This gives me long bold lashes, and that is accurately what I want from a mascara!

I really wan't to try the "new" one, the one where the tube is completely black?

Has everybody tried that one?

This is one of Gosh's newer products, it is their Defining brow gel. It has been a problem for me, to keep my browhairs (can you call it that?) in place. but this saves my brows and my day! Gosh has also come out with a browpalette with powder and wax :)

This is an VERY old love! I have had this for 5 years maybe? This is my second 50 ml. bottle, and it is almost gone.. I can't explain the sent, but it is very fresh and not really too fruit or floral.. I just love it, this is my alltime favorite perfume, it is the only perfume I have that I haven't become tired off after some time.

I have never really tryed any tooth whitening products, but I think that my teeth has become a bit yellow lately, so then I saw this Denvit Express White toothpaste in Netto for only 18 DKK, I thought, why not?

I used it the first time monday last week, and I can actually see a difference!? But I really want to try some other tooth whitening products as well :)

Because I just can't help myself

2010-11-23T21:36:00.001+01:00

Oh dam! I went the the local mall today with one of my friends, and I hadn't plan to get anything for my self, I were just going to buy some early christmasgifts. But oh well, I came home with some stuff for me as well.. As the title says: Sometime I just can't help myself!

I got a veeery nice black dress from H&M - But I will show it another time ;)

And then I got 3 new nailpolishes from Pieces - Eventhough nailpolish is the last thing I need!

I got two of their newer colors and their clear polish as well..

I got "Morning Mist" it is like pure champange shimmer, "Starry sky" black with chunky silver shimmer, and since there was 3 for 50 DKK I got another bottle of their clear polish "Bottled ocean" (It works perfect as a topcoat!)

I have quite a few of these now, and I have noticed that their new colors has a bigger brush - and it is so much better than the old ones - just a little serviceinformation ;)

Snow, Grapefruit and Paradoxal..

2010-11-22T21:12:00.000+01:00

Oh, hello!

I'm sorry that I haven't blogged at all this weekend, but I have been busy with celebrating my birthday :)

Saturday I was to a christmasparty, so I thought it would be a great opportunity to try my new Chanel polish.

Chanel Paradoxal

The pictures aren't really the best quality, but the lightning is not the best at the moment, because of the bad weather.

I really like the color, it's the perfect wintercolor! I'm wearing two coats, because it's a bit thin with only one coat, but two coats is just perfect.

Friday we got this winters first snow, it wasn't alot but you got the "christmas feel". But to be honest I'm not really a fan of snow, yes it's nice to be indoor with candles, tea and a blanket, but I hate then I have to go to school then there is 40 cm of snow on the road.

And a nice surprise birthdaygift from my aunt..

She gave me this set from The Body Shop as a late birthdaygift on saturday, and I looove The Body Shop! It is this giftset with soap, scrub, body butter, bathlily and showergel with pink grapefruit.

And as an extra little treat she gave me lipbutter as a bonus, and this stuff I allready love. It kind of pull some of the pigment out of my lips, and make them look more "nude".

Kind of a mixed post, but oh well ;)

- Kathrine

Guess what!?

2010-11-17T17:33:00.000+01:00

Today is my birthday!! :D

I'm turning 17 today, but to hornest I'm just glad that there is only 365 days to I'm 18! Then I can take my drivers license :) But i've had a lovely day with my family and friends. I got some lovely gifts from my friends in school.

One of my best friends and me have this thing with Chanel nailpolish, So she gave me 509 Paradoxal, I can't wait to wear this!

She also gave this ring from Pieces, it's big, and that is kind of the way I like my rings :)

An other good friend gave me Lip butter and showergel from The Body Shop in the Wild cherry sent.

And because I'm in The Body Shops cutomers club and because it is mt birthday, I could chose thing(s) for a value of 95 DKK. I got this Japanese Cherry Blossom Body Mist. (I was 115 DKK, so I just paid the last 20 DKK my self). It smells very good!

I did also get a curling iron from OBH Nordica from some family, I can't wait to try it (and maybe show some pictures?)

Hope everybody is doing great!

My Everyday Face routine :)

2010-11-16T17:27:00.001+01:00

Oh! Hello! :)

I did my everyday eyemakeup routine in the summer, and I think it is now time for my foundation routine :)

Step 1:

Maybelline SuperStay 24h

Gosh Velvet Touch Foundation Primer

For a long time I first applyed mt primer, and then foundation, but one day I were in a hurry and just mixed them together on the back of my hand, and to be honest, I really really like the result! I allpy this all over my face, but mostly around the nose and on the cheeks.

Step 2:

Maybelline Dream Mousse Concealer

After the foundation I use this concealer around my eyes and if I have any spots.

I have almost finnished this one, and you can't get it anymore in Denmark, that is your favorite concealer?

Step 3:

Maybelline Dream Mat Powder

To set my foundation I use my favorite pressed powder. As you can see, I have been useing this quite a bit, and I do really like it.

Step 4:

MAC powder blush in Melba

This is my favorite blush for everyday, I put it along my cheekbones and it gives me a very nice glow.

Thats it!

And it takes, like maybe 3 minutes? Very quick!

And guess what? Tomorrow is my birthday!! :D

October favorites!

2010-10-31T16:29:00.001+01:00

Soo.. I haven't blogged at much this week as I've planned, because I don't really have any pictures, but on this lazy sunday, I have time to do my October favorites. I think it's quite a while since I did a favorites post, so it is about time! ;)

I have first of all falled in love with my liquid liner again! I used to use this everyday, but I had a long break over the summer. I like to use it with my angeled eyeliner brush from Gosh, I find that I get the most thin line that way. It might even give you a result close to the line you would get from a cream or gelliner.

I got this in the beginning of the month, it is the got2b smooth'n chic smoothing lotion. It's kind of a leavein conditioner. It protects from UV, controls fly-aways, and makes my hair very smooth and soft. It basicly keep my hair under control! And it smells very good too!!

This is just my new love! I think I have been wearing this about 1/3 of the month! I know that Particulière is very hyped, and everybody is loveing it.. And now I'm one of those people! Sorry! ;) I have talked about this before but it is basicly a mud-brown color, it is quite dark, so I think it is a nice color for fall and winter if you are not into black nails.

MAC Melba powder blush. I. love. this. I personally think that coral and peach blushes look the best on me. And that is also the reason why I got this. It is a matt and I have used this nine out of ten days this month. It's my new go-to color. It is VERY pigmented, and it gives my pale cheeks a very nice glow.

Mac "Carbon", You might not think that this color is that special, and it is not. But I have not had a black eyeshadow since the one I had broke in july 2009. I just love, that I now can do a real smokey-eye!

Urban Decay "Sin". This is such a perfect everyday color! I love to use this all over the lid and black liquid liner for everyday. The quality of Urban Decays eyeshadows is just amazing! I think that I wan't to buy this as a single eyeshadow then I am going to New York this spring.

My last favorite is Satin Taupe eyeshadow! My last post was about this product, so I think that I will just give you a link for this one ;)

But it is a very nice color for every neutral look you could think of.

Have a nice sunday everybody!

I'm going to enjoy my afternoon with candles and a hot cup of my favorite tea!

- Kathrine

I like Satin Taupe...

2010-10-25T22:48:00.000+02:00

In september I got the famous Satin Taupe eyeshadow from Mac, and I'm so glad that I finally got it! It's a medium dark taupe with purple undertones and a satin finnish. It's very universial color, you can use it everyday dusted lightly over the lid, or as a more smokey and dark look, if you put alot all over the lid or on the lashline. It's a color you can put into almost every look, and it will look good!

I did a look with this the other day, and I took pictures in my backyard, the lighting is much better outside!
I used satin taupe all over the lid and on the lower lashline, and the darkest color from the Mystic eyes quad from Chanel in the crease. I quite like this look, even though it is darker than what I normaly do.

- Kathrine

But primer?! Where are you??

2010-10-20T20:18:00.000+02:00

Ohh.. it has been such a lazy day today! But I have been taking alot of pictures for the blog since my frind is going to borrow my camera for har next trip (She is going to China and I'm very Jealoux!). She will be home about November 10th, but that is many days to blog without my camera! I personally I hate then there aren't any pictures in blogposts, and I think it's just a little more personally then it is the bloggers own pictures.

Oh well, I read this post a long time ago about cutting your Urban Decay Primer Potion up, And since mine has been what I thought was dead for some time now, I thought, why not??

So here is my result.

I guess that there was about 50% left in the stupid container, So I'm very glad that they have designed the new one.

Picture from this blog.

I hope that if any of you have an old Primer potion that you think is dead, you are going to do this also, it's kind of amazing how much products there is left inside od thid funky lookin' container.

Chanel Particulière - Pieces Nougat

2010-10-18T23:08:00.000+02:00

Hello there

Yesterday in my fall nailpolish post I promised to compare two nailpolishes - Chanel "Particulière" and Pieces "Nougat".

Side by side they look very similar. Particulière is about 175 DKK (13ml) in stores like Matas. Nougat is 20 DKK (10ml) in Pieces and Vero Moda (3 for 50 DKK). The quality is quite similar, they cover perfectly in two coats. The Chanel polish dry faster than the one from Pieces, but still - the consistency is quite similar. But to be honest I like the Chanel the most, but why? First of all, it is CHANEL, there is just something classy and luxurious over the whole brand. Secound of all the color has just become a cult product. Almost everybody knows Particulière - even people who is not into the beautyblogger world. and lastly because the consistency is just a tiny bit better than Nougat.

Next - The color.

Even even though they look almost identical on the top picture, but they are far from identical (at least with a beautybloggers eyes..) when you apply them to the nails.

On the picture above we have Nougat on the left, and Particulière on the right.

Nougat is clearly much lighter than Particulière, and to be honest - Nougat is the color that I thought Particulière would be. But I LOVE both of them!

I think that Particulière is worth the money, but if you arn't shure if the "mud-color" is something for you, you can't afford Chanel or you can't get your hand on it - Nougat is a very nice color, that gives you the "Particulière-feel" - and it is cheap as hell :P

Particulière on the left - Nougat on the right

Nougat - Particulère

Have you jumped on the "mud nails"-trend?

And what is your favorite color for fall?

My picks for fall/winter nailpolish 2010!

2010-10-17T17:26:00.000+02:00

Hello my lovely readers :)

First - An update

I'm having trouble to keep up with blog, but lately I just haven't had alot of time or enegy to blog. But now we have "fall-break" in Denmark, so I hope that I can prepare some different posts, and take a lot of pictures for the blog (My friend is going on a schooltrip with her school to China and she is borrowing my camera - So I am not going to be able to take pictures for the blog).

Now on to the polish..

I have alot of nailpolish, but for some reason I still by new colors for every season - this is my top 5 picks for fall/winter nailpolish colors.

"Midnight Passion" - H&M

A dark red id a classic in the fall, and I'm quite shure that I am going to wear colors similar to this (I have quite a few polishes in this kind of color) alot this fall.

"583 Mystery night" - GOSH

I got this in the summer (Superbest had it on sale for 20 DKK) so I have not had this on my fingers yet, but I have had it on my toes alot! It's a polish with a black base with purple "shimmer", so it kind of looks like a VERY dark purple.

"Grey shy" - H&M

This is not as dark as some of the others colors I choosed for this post. But it is a light gray with lilac undertones. Very nice and suttle (it matches everything!). This has a very nice quality compared to the price (10 DKK). But it is a miniature bottle ;)

"505 Particulière" - Chanel

Oh, everybody know this, and if you don't.. where the hell have you been? This is one of those hyped chanel polished, and I love it! I would descibe this as.. mud. It's one of those colors you can wear everyday without getting sick or borred of it. I have acctually found a cheaper color close to this, I'm gonna show it tomorrow ;)

"491 Rose Confidentiel" - Chanel

I have not heard alot about this color in the beauty blog/vlogger world. But it was love at the first sight. It's kind of a hard color to decribe, because it changes in the light. But it's a dusty burnt rose color(?). It's very descret and for me it is one of those colors I could wear all year around!

Midnight Passion, Mystery Night, Grey sky, 505, 491

Hope everybody had a nice weekend!

- Kathrine

My favorite everyday lid.colors

2010-09-26T10:55:00.000+02:00

Hello!

I wasn't planing blogging today, I'm on my way to eat brunch with a friend, but I were ready a hour to soon, so why not do a post for my lovely readers?

For everyday I always just wear a lid color and mascara on the eyes, it's quick, simple and easy. I have some colors that is the only ones I use - almost. So here is my favorite five.

"Sin" from Urban Decay, this is probably my new all time favorite, It's almost the same colors as the one below, but the quality and texture is much better!

Color from Rimmels "Smokey Brun" quad, I used this nonstop in like 3 months, everyday as my lidcolor. I still love it but, "Sin" from Urban Decay is just a tiny nit better!

Color from Chanel "Mystic eyes" quad, Very nice color, and REALLY nice quality.

"All that glitters" from MAC, I don't use this that much, because the color is too orange/pink for my taste, but I still use it alot, but just not as much as the other colors ;)

"Dazzlelight" from MAC, the only of my 5 picks who has glitter, all the other ones has just shimmer/satin finish. This is also lighter than the others, but still - A very nice color for everyday!

from the left: Sin, Smokey Brun, Mystic eyes, All that glitter, Dazzlelight

As just probably can tell, I really like the neutral shimmery/satin, taupey/beige colors..

But what can I say? Thats how I roll!

Have a nice Sunday everybody!

Black shirt - Vila

Purple Skirt - H&M

Leggins - Vero Moda

Black Flats - H&M

Big black ring - H&M

I got this ring in H&M i Paris :) Looove it!!

- Kathrine

Bonjour! - Paris and shopping..

2010-09-20T23:32:00.000+02:00

Bonjour!

I came home from Paris yesterday, and I had an amazing trip! I loove paris, its such a pretty city, and we had a great time!

I didn't buy alot, but I did get some things in dutyfree and in Sephora ;)

I love the Airport in Copenhagen! I got 3 items from MAC, the first thing I picked out is Satin Taupe eyeshadow. I haven't played around with it much, but it's a very nice color.

Next I picked out Dazzlelight eyeshadow, very nice everyday color ;)

The last thing is Melba blush, this is my first blush from MAC, and I'm very impressed, very nice quality and very nice color too. This is a matte, and I don't own any matte blushes, so this is perfect.

I really wanted the Naked palette from Urban decay, but I went to two Sephoras, and non of them had it in stock :( So I got the Urban Decay eyeshadow Ammo. it has some neutral colors, and a couple of brighter colors, so it's okay. But I would prefer the Naked one..

The lovely colors, I can allready tell that "Sin" is going to be of my favorites in this quad.

(click on the picture to see it enlarged)

And sadly for my wallet, I have a new adiction.. CHANEL!

I looked on this quad in the airport, but I decided to wait, since I didn't wanted to use all my money before we even left Denmark. It's the one called Mystic eyes. Very nice colors, and the quality of this is just WOW! I LOOOVE IT! I used the lightest color on the lid, with the darkest color on the top lashline today, very pretty!

I found this one on the Chanel counter, and I almost screamed! I got it right away, It's the famous 505 Particulière. I had it on saturday night and sunday, very nice color. But I'm shure most of you have seen is a million times! ;P

I got this one as well, I think it's from one of their collections, but I'm not shure which one. It's called 491 Rose Confidentiel, and it's a quite unique color, I will post a picture of this very soon!

That's it for the makeup part, I got some things from H&M as well, but that will be another day ;)

And now some picture spam from the trip ;)

I hope everybody is doing great!

With a touch of glitter...

2010-09-12T22:32:00.001+02:00

I've had a very lazy sunday! I have been doing some homeworks, watching alot of tv, and I have reorganized my closet. Now I'm watching Mammamia, burning some candels and I've just ate a big bowl of grapes ;) I love the sundays where I don't have to work!

2 weeks ago, My frined did my nails, and she did it Lorraine style! With one nail with glitterpolish, I know its not her who "made it up" but it's her I got inspired by! Watch her beauty videos here! and her daily vlogs here! The light purple is called "Lavender Haze" (I think, I can't really remember) from Pieces "new" nailpolish line and the glitter is called "a girl best friend" - again from pieces, I could totally make that up! It was quite thin and very badly pigmented, I have four coats of the lavender on and two coats of the glitterpolish.

Left hand without flash

Left hand with flash

Right hand without flash

My friend used her own polishes, but I got some of them about a month ago.

"Parisian mints" - Light mint, it's brighter in real life!

I'm not shure if it's a color for me, I think it looks odd.

"Concrete Jungle" - Grey with a brown/taupe undertone

Very nice a sutle color for fall.

"Botteled Ocean" - Love the name! But it's just a clear polish that I use a topcoat.

To buy in Paris!

2010-09-11T23:49:00.000+02:00

Hello!I just had a week with crazy homeoworks and work, so I havne't had the time to blog, sorry :)
I've found some things that I really want to buy in Paris (I'm going on thursday!!)

Urban Decay Naked palette, I know, the overhyped palette who is sold out everywere! But I'm still crossing my fingers. I'm a neutral freak, so this palette would be perfect for me!!
MAC eyeshadow in Satin taupe, I just think that this neeeed to be in my collection ;) - I hope to buy this dutyfree in the airport :D
Blush brush, I don't have any special one in mind, just one in a nice quality.
Black Liquidliner, maybe from MAC, but I'm open to other companies.

Anything you think that I need to buy if I come across a Sephora?? I'm also thinking of Nars blush in Orgasm, OPI nailpolish and MAC face and body foundation ?

- Kathrine

Buy: H&M Shoes

2010-09-02T22:34:00.000+02:00

I got this pair of shoes the other day at work, they are from H&M and where 250 DKK, I looove them! I'm going to wear them tomorrow for a party on my school ;) the heel are about 12 cm high, and you can get them in black as well.

The nailpolish is "Blue my mind" from H&M

Grey sky and News!

2010-08-30T21:48:00.000+02:00

The weather in Denmark has been very nice the last couple of days, but before that is has been raining like crazy! - random? I know!

But "my" H&M has gotten these new nailpolishes, they are minipolishes and the are only 10 DKK (about 2 UD$) The first one I got is called Grey Sky and it's such a nice color! Its a grey with purple undertones, and I love it! It's going to be on my nails all winter! I like it because it has some color to it, but it's still very dicreet and sutle.

I now realise that the bottle is upside down.. ;)

with flash

It's hard to tell out from the pictures, but the polish has a suttle shimmer to it.

Now on to some exiting news..

In about 2,5 week I'm going to..

PARIIIS!!!!

I'm going with my frenchclass for 4 days, and I can't wait!

I have saved up for this trip so I can shop till I DROP! ;P I haven't been to Paris since I were 8 (I think) , so it's limited what I remember.. We are also going to a outlet mall = VERY EXITED ME!!

Oh well, Take care!

No longer a MAC-virgin...

2010-07-26T19:00:00.000+02:00

Hi!

I came home from Italy late saturday night :)

I LOVE to shop in Copenhagen airport! They have a great dutyfree shop, bigger and better than other airports I have been in (we are talking, Milan, Rome, Paris, Nice ect.)

One of the main reason why I love this airport, is because they have a MAC store (or counter).. So I did get my first MAC products!! Yay!! I only got 3 things, and they are all like "the classics".. But I'm going to share with you anyway ;)

The only thing that I knew that I wanted to get was "Carbon" eyeshadow, because I do not own a black eyeshadow(!?!)

Tilføj billedtekst

I did also get the famous "All that glitters" eyeshadow, I love the color!

The last thing I got was "Love Nectar" lustreglass, such a nice color for summer ;)

thats all!

In dutyfree I also got the perfume for the month of august, but it's a surprise wich one I got ;)

What I bring on Vacation (Makeup)

2010-07-14T21:38:00.000+02:00

Hello, So today I have been packing all day, because tomorrow I'm going to Rome and Napoli in Italy for 10 days. I can't wait! I found it to be quite a dilemma what to bring, so this will hopefully help you, if you haven't been on vacation yet.

Oh, and a little "disclaimer". This is NOT what I'm going to bring to the beach, or wear on the beach. This is basiclly for the days we are going shopping and going to resturants in the evenings ;)

Lips:

I'm not really a lipstick girl, for everyday.. So all for lips is, Darling Lipstick from Gosh, and 3 watershine elixir from Maybelline - colors, Rose star, Magic Pearl and Praline Seduction.

Eyeshadows:

I'm a neutral-freak! And I almost NEVER wear "real" colors, so I'm only bringing some different eyeshadow palettes with different shades of brown, bronze and cream.

Eyeliners ( + other )

Left to right: Colordefiner from Maybelline in secret peach, UD glitter eyeliner in Baked, UDPP, Gosh eyeliner in sparkling pearl, UD eyeliner in Bourbon and black liquidliner from Rimmel.

Mascara:

I'm "only" bringing two mascaras, my new favorite - Volume Million Lashes from Loreal (Review up then I come home from Italy!) and my choise of waterproof mascara Glam'eyes from Rimmel.

Face:

"Minimal" face products. Superstay foundation, concealer and powder from Maybelline. Concealerpalette from Wet'n'Wild (review!) and primer from Gosh.

Cheeks:

Hmm.. I'm not really a cheek geek ;) Peach blush from Maybelline and duo from Clinique with Sunkissed bronzer and Mocha pink blush.

That's all!

It kind of look like alot, but I don't think it's that bad.

It fits into a medium makeupbag!

AMAZING!!! ;)

I will pack the last things now, we are leaving early tomorrow!

Take care!

- Kathrine

Buy: Copenhagen!

2010-07-07T23:41:00.000+02:00

Hello!!

Monday I went to Copenhagen to shop and to watch Eclipse :) I didn't buy alot, But a few things..

This is the thing I'm most exited about! I found one of the eos lipblams :) You can't get these in the danish drugstores, but I found this in Illum (The store on the other side of The body shop) They had all 4 sents and some in "tube" form. I got the red one - I think its summerfruit (?) or something like that.

In The Body Shop I got some things at sale.This lip butter with Passion fruit (30 DKK) and a body butter with Papaya (also 30 DKK).

Perfume of the Month - July

2010-07-03T19:23:00.000+02:00

Hello!

Before I got a job, I didn't have alot of money, so I didn't buy a lot of perfume but used quite a bit of my collection. So for maybe 6 month, I'm going to buy a new perfume for every paycheck. I have allready purchased this months sent.

It is Donna Karens DKNY Delicious Candy Apples. First I thought it was the original just in fancy new packaging. But it is a new limited edition summer scent (there where also a purple one with berries and a red one with raspberries). I think that it is supposed to look like a candy apple with the stick on the lid. Since I also have the original, I compared this with the original one. The scent is very much like each other, but the candy apples are a part sweeter - and probably my favorite. I would definitely recommend anyone who likes the original DNKY Delicious scent, try smell this the next time they are visiting a perfumeshop.

- On a sitenote, I got it on sale from 410 DKK to 280 DKK for 50 ml. So I guess you have to be quick if you want to buy it ;)

DKNY Delicious to the left and DKNY Delicious Candy Apples to the right.

Have a nice saturday night!

HoneyLoves - June 2010

2010-07-02T20:45:00.000+02:00

Hello!

It's time for some June favorites, So here is my five favorites for the month of June :)

Since I'm still on my nailpolish rehab, I have been wearing these two Gosh products on my nails ;) First the nail whitener, it's like a matt "nailpolish" with very very very small blue shimmer. The shimmer helps your nails look more pink and "remove" any stains. The vitamin booster is just kind of like a topcoat, but softer - like that makes any sence ;)

I got this lipbalm from The Body Shop in the beginning of June, and I have really been loveing it. It gives my lips a nice shimmery coral tint´and it feels very nice on the lips. I got it in the color 01 Peach Crush.

Look : Michael Jackson

2010-06-29T22:54:00.000+02:00

This is the picture I was inspired by - Love the sparkle!

It's kind of hard to on the pictures but I used a black liquid eyeliner AND glittereyeliner on the top lashline - It gives a very nice effect.

Products used:

Eyes:

Urban Decay Primer Potion
Le Crayon khol noir from Lancome
Dark blue, Very dark grey and shimmery white from Rimmel paletté
Urban Decay "Half Baked" eyeshadow
Urban Decay Heavy Metal eyeliner in Baked (I have a review here!)
Rimmel Liquid eyeliner
Mascara - ??? (I did the look sunday, and I can't remember :s )

Cheeks:

Gosh blush in Juicy Peach

Lips:

Nude gloss from Gosh

2010-06-25T13:32:00.000+02:00

Hello!

This is just gonna be a very quick post before I have to go to work ;)

Today it is one year since the KING of pop - Michael Jackson died :( I have actually never been a big fan of him, but after his dead I got some of his albums on my Ipod and I never hear anything else now. I know that he is being "Celebrated" on some different channels today.. In danish tv they are celebrating him on tv3 tonight with 3 different shows about him (one of them is the movie "This is it") and they are playing MJ all day at VH1 ;)

I hope that I get the time to do a look inspired by him tomorrow, if not I will do it sunday ;)

Here is some of my favorite songs by the lovely Michael Jackson:

RIP <3 MJ

Buy: L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes

2010-06-22T00:03:00.000+02:00

To "celebrate" that my summerbreak started Wednesday, I bought the new mascare from L'Oreal. I have only used it 2 times. But I will review it as soon as I've used it for maybe a week ;)

I paid 120 DKK for it in Matas, but right now you get 3 brushes from L'Oreal if you buy this mascara ;)

(Only in Denmark I guess)

Two eyeshadowbrushes and a lipbrush ;)

How to - Cut Lush Soap

2010-06-19T13:35:00.001+02:00

In May I went to Lush for the first time, and I got giftbox with some different stuff, one of the things was a bar of Rockstar soap, but I've never used it, because i knew that you had to cut up the soap into smaller bits. But yesterday I finally did it :D

All you need is:

An old kitchen knife (I used a bread knife)
A kettle
A chopping board
And your soap ;)

1. Boil about one liter tapwater in a kettle.

2. Then pour some of the warm water over the blade (of course over a sink)

3. Cut the soap on a chopping board. The water and the heat will do the cutting very easy, but please be carefull!

You may need to pour water on the blade after every second cut ;)

I cut my soap into 5 pieces (but it was kind of a small piece)

Good luck!

My Everyday Eyemakeup

2010-06-17T14:47:00.000+02:00

Hello! Long time no see, it has been over 2 weeks, but I have just been VERY busy with exams and work ;) This post is about my new favorite eyemakeup, and I only use three things!

Urban Decay Primer Potion
Rimmel quad in Smokey Brun
Gosh Supreme High Speed Volume mascara in black

The look is SO easy, simple and neutral ;)

I only use one color from the quad, and it's the bottom left one, it's a very nice taupey, champagney beige color ;) I use thet color on top of Urban Decay Primer Potion and finnish of with mascara. I have been loveing this look the last 2 weeks because it's very simple ;) For a long time I have only been wearing mascara on the eyes, but this eyeshadow just brings light to my eyes, and I love it!

As you can see on this picture, the eyeshadow is not so opaque, but it gices a nice wash of shine and sheer color :)

That is all for today, I'm going to work now and then I'm going to the beach tonight with some friends :D

- Kathrine

Buy: Delipscious Tinted Lip Balm

2010-05-31T20:06:00.002+02:00

Today I were in Copenhagen to see "The Joneses" with my classmates, and after the film we got some time to eat, shop or what ever we wanted, and I wanted to shop (surprise surprise!). But I did only get one thing, and it was the Delipscious Tinted Lip Balm from The Body Shop. It was only 65 DKK and it's supposed to be 100% eatable..

I got it in the color 01 Peach Crush, a nice peach color with golden shimmer.

Maybe not the best picture, but it's a very sheer color and it has a nice glossy look on the lips.

My bare lips

With "Peach Crush"

I will probably do a real review on this then I've tried it for more than 3 hours ;)

- Kathrine

Buy: Wedges

2010-05-18T22:12:00.001+02:00

I got these shoes in Deichmann yesterday, they were only 169 DKK, So I don't have big hopes for the quality. But they are very nice to walk in, and I can't wait to wear them then its getting warmer in the weather.

- Kathrine

Berlin and Haul!

2010-05-09T22:15:00.000+02:00

So I did a quick update-post yesterday, But I haven't blogged other tha that for the last week, I will do a post about the things we did, and what I got :)

Day 1 - Monday

We meet at the school at 7:30 am where we loaded the bus, and off we went. We drove for like 3 hours and then we had to take a ferry to Germany. On the ferry we got some fries and I got this perfume and the dutyfree-shop. I've been wanting this for a month, so I were happy to get it cheaper, than here back home :) I'm normaly not really a fan of Celeb-sents, But this one just smells SO HEAVENLY!! Its Chic by Celine Dion and it's amazing, I didn't took a picture of it without the box, but it's not that special ;)

After the ferry we drove a long time, and about 17:15 we were at the Hotel, after we got our rooms, we went out to find a place to eat dinner. We took the Subway and one of the first thing I saw then we came up was this

First thought: cheese? But then it dawned on me that it was LUSH! and I almost screamed "We have to go in there!!"

I decided to buy a giftbow, because that way I could try something different without paying too much.. So I got the giftset called "Wild Child"

It was packed like this and it had 5 items in it. I paid 25 Euro for it, about 190 DKK.

This is what I got, I was all packed in popcorn, and then I opened it at our room, the room got soaked in yummy sents ;)

The first thing is the famous Rockstar soap, and one of the reasons that I got this one, (another reason is that I don't have a tup, So I didn't wanna buy a giftbox with alot of bubblebars and bathbombs..)

I got about 85 g. of this soap, and it smell very sweet and candy-like ;)

I haven't used it, because I wanted to take a picture before I slice it into maybe 6 pieces ;)

The next thing is this Yummy yummy yummy showergel, its only a tiny bottle with 100 g, but to me it smells like strawberrys and hmm.. strawberry? I haven't tried any of the Lush-things jet, but I think I will try this tonight ;)

I can alreally say that I'm not a fan of this.. I'm not really into chocolate-sents and he consistensy of this is hard and more like a soap, but its called Chocolate Whipstick Lip balm ;) there is 10 g. in this ;)

This one I can't wait to use, Its called "Up you gets" Emotibomb, this smells of citrus, and the sent is VERY strong.. These are used in the buttom in your shower where the water hits it and the steam should be very nice, and wake you up. I'm gonna break this into small pieces, so I can use it many times ;)

The last thing is "Sugar babe sugar scrun", I think this more has more a floral sent, than the other things ;) But it's a bit citrusy too. I'm not 100 % shure on how to use this, but I will frigur it out :D

For dinner we went to this very nice italien resturant, this pizza was SO yummy!

Day 2 - Tuesday

We woke up at 6, because we had to be at the breakfeast room at 7. The breakfeast was pretty Blah! At 9 am. We went sightseeing in Berlin we saw all the "big" things, east side gallery, the television tower, check point Charlie ect. At about 2 pm. We got some lunch and shopped the rest of the day ;) Here is the things I got ;)

I got 3 of these hand and nail lotions from Essence, it smell SO good, like Peach-mango ;)

I do already have one of these, but it was SO much cheaper than in Denmark, so since I love it, I got another one ;)

We don't have this version of this back here in Denmark, and since I love the Aqualily sent from The Body Shop, I wanted to try this ;)

I got this one too, Its one I have been wanting this since it came out, but again this was so much cheaper in the store we went to, it's btw called DN (I think, I'm not really shure..)

I needed a new foundation, since my Maybelline Satin liquid broke me out. I got the Maybelline Super Stay 24 foundation in 20 Cameo.

I got this Elvital Re-nutrition leave-in conditioner, because I love the sent of the conditioner from the same line, but we don't have this here in Denmark.

I got his mini hairspary from Garnier Fructis for our trip to Rome till summer.

I did also get a mini deo from Rexona, for the same purpose as the Hairspray.

I got this ring for 5 euro in a huge fashionstore - I can't remember the name.

In the same store I got these nailpolishes from Incolor by Jordana, in the colors:

Sweetest Temptation (top, cream pink)

Little Princess (buttom, Clear pink with pink shimmer/glitter)

I got these earrings from H&M for only 3euro for 9 pairs, there was an orange pair too, but I gave them to one of my roommates ;)

On day 3 we just went home ;)

Friday I got these two perfumes from DNKY, Be Delicious Fresh Blossom (the pink one) and the Be Delicious (The green one) The are both Eau de Perfums and with 30 ml. (I paid 395 DKK for a set with both..)

Finally I will show some pictures from the trip ;)

The Lush store.. not quite a great picture :P

The Pizza I got the first night, yummy, it was with tomato, chesse, ham and mushrooms :) "Capricossa"

East side gallery

The television-tower

Me at a Jewish memorial

Brandenburger tor

Tuesday we went clubbing, and this is me playing with the hairdryer ;)

Thats all!

All in all I had some great days with my class-mates, and it was a big experience!

Hope everybody had a nice weekend!

Nailpolish Ramble..

2010-04-23T20:41:00.000+02:00

Ok, so since I'm not home at all tomorrow and I didn't blog yesterday, I want to make a longer post that I normaly do ;)

Mini review of Depend mini nailpolish number 184

Pros

It applys like a dream! It covers the nail after one coat, but you need 2 coats if you want it to be opaque.
Its pretty long lasting, but it starts chipping after about 3, but it depends on what you do with your hands, I worked yesterday, so on my other fingers was chipping a bit ;) - But normaly Depends Nailpolishes are okay long-lasting.
The price! I paid 25 DKK (about 5US$)- If it was sold in the states it would probably be much cheaper.
Depend has alot of colors to chose from, between 40 and 50!?

Cons

The size, they are pretty small (5 ml).. But its nice if you like to try a color you're not really shure if you like, and you don't wanna buy a big bottle.
That they only have numbers as their name, and not like "real" names - I like cute and funny names for colors ;)

Pictures with different light.

Buy: Gosh Nailpolish - Metallic Blue (566)

I didn't actually buy this my self, me friend gave it to me because she swatched it on one finger, and didn't like it. I'm not really shure if I like it eather, but I'm gonna give it a try.. Some day ;)

It like a 3D-ish color, really pretty in the bottle, but I'm not shure if I'm going to like it on my nails :S

an other color that I know I like is this one from Rimmel called Blue me away (from their 60 sek. "collection") - On the picture bellow

Its just such a nice cobolt-blue color with pink/fushia shimmer, SO pretty. I've had this on my toenails the last 2 weeks, and It look very good!

The last thing I'm gonna show is this:

If you live in Denmark like me this is a very cool offer, Super Best is having some Gosh nailpolishes on sale for only 20 DKK (4 US$) next week, but only very limited supply, So I think that I have to check my local store, on monday ;)

Have a nice weekend everybody!

(I'm gonna see 'Remember me' tomorrow with my best friend :D)

DIY - Earring Holder

2010-04-21T19:03:00.000+02:00

For as long as I remember I have been looking for an unique way to store my earring, and the other day it just hit me. I did this like 2 weeks ago, but I will try to decribe what I did as good as I can ;) It's very easy to do, and I think it looks fabulous!

You will need following:

1 picture frame with cardboard "back" color, size and shape is your choise.
1 big safety pin or an other tool to pin holes with.
1 pencil
And your favorite earrings!!

This is how you do it:

Revome the glass carefully.
Take the cardboard out of the frame.
Mark with your pencil where you want your holes, remember to put the holes 2 and 2 ;) (Be shure that there is enough space between holes)
Now you have to pin some holes through the cardboard thing, make shure that they are big enough to fit you earrings.
Now you can pin your earrings into your new holder ;)

Hope that some of you will try to do this by your self. I got the frame in the danish supermarked Kvickly, I paid 30 DKK for a pack with 4 frames (7x5 Inch)

An other post today, Its a bit late, but this is gonna be my favorites for the month of march.

I got this a couple of weeks ago, because my professional liquid liner from rimmel (Review! This is BTW my 3rd finnished product in project 10 pan) died and after like 2 weeks without my black liquid liner, i decided that I needed one, and got it in a buy 2 get one for free offer, and got this as my "free". I can'r really decide if I like this more than the other one, Its easier to use, but its kind of hard to make a really thin line. But I do really like this, I use it almost every day ;)

My next favorite is this blush from Clinique, its called "Mocha Pink" and I got it in this duo in a giftset years ago. I've never really used it, but for some reason I have been useing this ALOT this month. Its like a mauve-y, pink-y color. The picture above are with flash, and the next are without flash ;) I really like it, on the back it says soft pressed powder blusher, but they don't have that product on the UK website.. So I guess that its not avalible any more.. But they do have the bronzer part, its called Sunkissed, but I don't really use that part ;)

I got this Nightcreme 2 or 3 weeks ago, and I really like it. I use it all over my face and around the eyes too. This helped me with some dry spots I had around my nose/cheeks, that my daycreme or any of the masks I had couldn't "remove". It has an anti-ageing fomular, and it makes my skin fell very nice :D The ony thing I don't like is the sent, its kind of wierd and strong :/

The next favorite is not really this nailpolish, but Nude Nails, I got this because it was the only one I could find, and I loved the nude look on my nails, but this polish just doesn't work for the job.. 4 coats is waaay to many! But I'm on a hunt for a new nude polish ;) See this color on my nail here!

My last favorite is this powder from Maybelline, its the Dream Mat powder, and alot of Youtubers has reved about this. I got it on sale (about 4 US$) and I loove the finnish this gives me! I haven't used this much this month since I'm on project 10 Pan and I wan't to finnish my Rimmel powder. But I've used used this for some parties and speciel events, and it keeps my skin look good all night! And you can have this in your purse for touch-ups without it will look cakey! The only thing I don't really like is the packaging but in this video, a youtuber (Glintzy) shows how to get the bottompart off ;)

I hopeope everybody is enjoying the easter and had a great weekend!

XOXO - Kathrine

Mini Haul + NOTD

2010-03-17T22:37:00.000+01:00

I went Shopping with my best friend today, and got a couple of things :D

First I had a giftcard on 50 DKK to H&M, so I got this ring for only 40 DKK, I love that its big and feminin.

A couple of weeks ago I blogged about H&Ms Organic skincare-line, and today the had the lipbalm. It says "Fresh Vanilla", and normaly I'm not really in to strong vanilla sents, but this sent is very suttle and the lipblam is very thick and not like a liquid. this was 30 DKK.

We did also went to Matas, And I got this nailpolish from Depend in the "color" 184, I think its from the Spring collection.. (read the rest to see it on)

Its like this grey with lilac undertones, or lilac with grey undertones??

Matas has this offer where you can get a free Gosh mascara if you bring a coupon. I did that monday, but they where out of stock in my local Matas, but the one we went to today had MANY left, so I got one :D Its the most selling mascara from Gosh the "Show me volume".

I follow a blogger called JeanettD and she got these a week or 2 ago and I love them, and since they where only 99,95 DKK, I had to have them! I think they're gonna be SO pretty for spring and summer ;)

I really like the size of them too, not to small and not to big ;)

Thats all I got!

Depend nailpolish in the number 184, it looks pretty good with only 1 coat, but I have 2 coats on, to make it perfect ;)

Hope everybody had a great day!

Mini Haul + NOTD

2010-03-10T20:13:00.000+01:00

Yesterday I kind of "forgot" my Project 10 pan ;p I didn't forget it, but I really wanted a nude nailpolish, and nailpolish isn't really a part of the thing I can't buy ;) Rimmel had a buy 2 get one for free offer, so I took advantage of that..

I picked this nude nailpolish, It was basicly the only "nude" I could find.. Its from Rimmels "French Manicure"-line and is called 464 Café au lait.

(If you wanna see it on, read the rest of the post)

First I picked up a light pink, but then I saw this funky blue one, and picked that up instead :D Its one of their 60 seconds polishes in the color 809 Blue me away. Its a pretty navy-blue with fushia shimmer, I have it on my toes right now, and it looks fab!

As my "free" thing, I picked a liquid-liner, I've used to use the professional liquid liner (review!), But their Exaggerate liner has a felt-tip brush, and I really want to try one of those, so I got that instead. I used it this morning and I really like it!

I just got it in in 001 black :D

(OMG, I've been missing my black liquid liner! Pencil just doesn't work for me!!)

Thats all I got :D

NOTD

Today I tryed the nude nailpolish, and I really like the look of it!

The color is (as I said before) Café au lait by Rimmel.

The polish is quite sheer and not so pigemted, but it's a really nice, everyday color - I diffently wan't another more pigmented color. Maybe one from Depends springcollection?

I Love Longlasting Nailpolish!!!

2010-03-09T21:35:00.000+01:00

Hi!

Long time no see, I know :D

Last thursday, almost 2 weeks ago, I put this nailcolor on.. This picture is from Sunday, So I looked pretty god even after a week, I'm very impressed! The polish is from H&M and is in the color Sophisticated Susanna.

The missing color in at the top is me, peeling it off - bad hapit ;)

The polish chipped a tiny bit at the end, but nothing you notice ;)

:S - my skin looks really dry on these pictures..

Anyone who knows a nice nail/hand creme??

Hope everybody had a nice start on the week!

- Kathrine

Update + NOTD!

2010-02-23T21:46:00.000+01:00

I know I have been MIA the last week, but although it was my winterbreak last week, I didn't post any posts.. Do you wanna know why? Because I was to lazy!

My new goal is to post almost everyday, like at least 5 or 6 times a week.

Today I took some pictures for a bright springlook that I hope I can do tomorrow ;)

I did go for the dark blue nails saturday, but I just did a brown smokey-eye instead of the blue as I blogged about last week. I think it looked really cool, because you got the "dark-nails-effect" without it looking to goth-ish. I used 2 coats of Depends black polish (creme) and 2 coats of Gosh "Blue Monday" on top (shimmer/glitter). I used a clear nailpolish from Rimmel as my top coat ( #421 Clearly Clear).

I hope everyone has had a good start on the week!

I hope some of you danish girls will use this offer, maybe try Gosh Darling or maybe one of their effectpowders?

Review: Wet'n'Wild CoverAll Concealer Palette

2010-02-13T17:22:00.000+01:00

I got this Concealer Palette a while ago, after seeing a Danish makeupguru called useing this palette, I knew that I had to have it. I got it in the Wet'n'Wild section in Føtex, but I know you can get it in Bilka too. It's not on the american website, but its on the british website (where is 3,49 £) I paid like 38 or 40 DKK. :D

It comes with 4 different creamy colors:

A light peachy color for darkness around the eyes, this color is very creamy and it blends really nice. But it lightens up, almost to much, so you have to use a skincolored color on top.

A light green color for redness and blemishes, this is really nice to, I like to use it around my nose and on my cheeks.

A shimmery white for high-lighting, this is the only shimmery color in the palette (all the others is matte). Its not as creamy as the other 3, which is very nice because its easy to over-apply. The shimmer is very discreet, and is really nice to use on browbone and cheekbone.

and the "normal" concealer. It's very pigmented, and blend really well. It looks pretty dark for my skintone, but its actually a good color for me.

To round up, I really like this palette, its cheap, the colors is creamy and easy to blend and its a good alternative to the Coastal Sents CamoQuads. The only thing I don't like is the sent, it has this rose-sent, but it's not really strong and you don't smell it, then you have it on your face :D

I give it 4 out of 5 stars, it only gets 4 stars because of the sent and the cheap-looking packaging.

You can buy it on the brittish website here!

Spring Toturials: Secret Peach

2010-02-10T22:54:00.000+01:00

I did this look the other day, and I LOVE IT! It looks so fresh, cute and feminin. I didn't use alot of products and its very easy to do ;)

Its more shimmery in real life, but this is pretty much how it looks..

Step-by-Step:

I did use a primer this time, but I used a light peachy base all over the lid. (Maybelline Color-definer in secret peach.
Then is used a shimmery peach color (picture below!) from a Rimmel quad (Urban queen, no longer sold) all over the lid up to the crease.
Then I used a dark burnt peachy kind of color (picture below!) from Gosh (effectpowder), in the crease, well blended.
I cant remember if I used a highlighter on the brow, but you can use one if you want to..
then I finnished with mascara and black liquid liner on the top lashline. (I'm almost out of liquidliner D: But I wanna wait to I'm done with P10P!)
On the cheeks I was Maybelline Mineral blush in quatz peach.
On the lips I was wearing a mix of like 5 different lipsticks and gloss ;)

The Rimmel shadow.

The Gosh effectpowder :)

Toturial: Driftwood eyes

2010-01-15T14:08:00.000+01:00

A really easy and neutral look, I did the other day, useing a quad from gosh called "Driftwood"..

I took a picture of the colors, so you can find dupes in your own collection, if you wanna try to do it :D

But on to the step-bt-step tutorial..

Prime your eyelid from the lashline to the brow (I used UDPP)
Use a color like "4" on the picture above, all over the lid up to the crease, and blend any lines..
Use a color like "2" in the crease, and blend well..
Use a color like "1" in your inner corner and on your browbone to highlight..
Use a color like "3" in your outer "V" and blend again..
I used a bit of brown creme liner on the top lashline, and smudged it alot, and put a little on the lower lashline..
I finnished of with black mascara (I think I used Max Factor false lash effect..)
On the cheeks I used Maybelline Mineral Blush in Quartz peach (My Favorite blush!) and on my lips I used Maybelline watershine elixir lipgloss in Rose star...

This is a really easy look, its my go-to look, the days I don't wanna be bold :D

Hope you wanna try this look, and this pallette, because I love both ;)

Rimmel professional liquid eyeliner - A Review

2009-11-14T17:53:00.002+01:00

Hi!
So today I got the first birthday presents, because we have some family over ;) I will Do a haul, then I get the rest, because my birthday is first on the 17th ;) So I will not post more "wishlist"s ;)

Now on to the review!

I have been wearing this look the whole week, and I love it! Is quick, and I love the long lashes ans the liquid liner. So this is a review on the liquid liner I use for this look ;) (BTW, I took this picture after school, so its like 3 or 4 in the afternoon, then I took this picture)

If you want a toturial on this simple look, or wanna know the products i used, comment bellow or email me at beautybee17@hotmail.com!

This is a really great eyeliner! It has a nice thin applitator-brush, It doesn't smear or flakes and its kind of waterproof! Its cheap, and the thin consistensy does that the eyeliner just glides on, but you have to practice, but i guees you have to do that with all liquid eyeliners ;)

with this thin applicator you can do really thin lines and thick lines ;)

Thats it!

If you have any qustions, comment bellow or email me! (email in the sidebar!)

BOTW - Urban Decay Heavy Metal glitter eyeliner

2009-08-30T18:36:00.000+02:00

Hi!

So, I know Im really bad at keep blogging, but I kin of don't really have the time at the moment, but you can follow me on twitter, under the name Beautybee17 :D. This week beautyproduct of the week is the heavy metal glitter eyeliner from Urban Decay. I got this in France (watch it here!) in Sephora, because you can't get Urban Decay in Denmark :( I got it in the color "Baked" (I got it in a "best of Urban Decay baked") But now to the catagorys ;)

packaging: 9/10 -I think the packaging is really cute and kind of "exclusive", because the top part is of some kind of metal, and the bottom is not like a "cheap" plastic. And the plastic is clear, so if you have more than one, its easy to find the one you are looking for.

Product: 10/10 I rally like this eyeliner! As I said I got it in a set, but I mosly got the set because of the mini primer potion and the eyeshadow. But this is really nice just on the upper lashline for some GLITTER!!! and its not like BAM GLITTER IN YOUR FACE, kind of more suddle. I don't think its waterproof but it stays on your lids, if your out danceing and such (trust me, I have tryed it). The glitter doesn't irretate my eyes or anything.

price: 5/10 - 18 US$ in Sephora, but gor hole set for like 23 US$ (normal price 46US$) I think its pretty expensive, but it is Urban Decay, and I think its worth it, you get alot of product (7,5 ml or 0,25 US fl oz.)

easy to use: 8/10 - the brush is pretty stif so its easy to apply, and bacause its a clear gel with glitter its much easyer to apply with out makeing a huge mess.

smell/sent: 8/10 - It smells really bad, but its only if you put your nose down to the brush, then you apply you don't notice the smell. So thats fine :D

repurchase: As I said you can't get Urban Decey in Denmark, But if we could I would buy it in different colors!

Overall: I rally like this, its perfect for pepping up a neutral eye and really good for clubbing, if your nor really in to the smokey eyes like me. so it gets 9/10 from the Beautybee17!!!

As you can see you need a couble of coats ;)

Glintzy from youtube have made a review on it as well (watch here video here! )

Hope you enjoy! please write to me, if you have a god idéa for the BOTW !

XOXO

Kathrine/Beautybee17

About 3 coats on the lashline ;)

Review - Maybelline Dream Mousse Eyecolor

2009-07-07T16:02:00.000+02:00

HI!
So before im going to France I just wanted to make a little review :D I will try to mae my reviews short and with alot of pictures ..

Ok, here is my tiny collection of Maybellines Dream mousse eyecolor. I have them in 02 Blissful beige (left) and 05 angelic pink (right)
As you can see there isn't any product in the bottom (there is product in the bottom in the foundation and the blush, just ask if you want a review on those).

The pink one I got in London in may 2007, and got it mostley because you couldn't get it in pink in Denmark. But I never wear pink on my eyes so it was kind of stupid..

I'm not shure if you can tell but this one is still "moussey", this coulor isn't that pigmented, but after a couple of coats you have a nice mix of hot pink and babypink.

I used the beige one alot then I got it (also may 2007) but this one is dry :( It lost its moussynes and its pigmentasion, so now its mostley shimmer. But the greatest thing about both is that they do NOT crease what so ever! so they are a great base for other eyeshadow :D

So.. over all, I think they are good bases and a good alternative to MACs Paint pots (even I haven't tryed them :s) And in the US they have more coulors than in Denmark, in Denmark they are discontinued :(

blissful beige (top)

angelic pink (bottom)

Hope you enjoy!

XOXO
