Make up tips of the day



As we all know there's an ocean of different eye shadows on the marked. But if I could give you one or two tips of great ones it would be Make Up Store's or MAC's base shadows. These are great to play around with and very long lasting. When it comes to an evening make up I strongly recommend MAC's high pigmentet "Pigment Powders". They come in all colors and have a fantastic metallic, frosty glow to them. They come in these small cute containers but lasts for a very long time. Or you can use Make Up Store's Micro Shadows, also great for that "wow-effect"!
As for tools to put them on I would recommend MAC's brushes and they're so easy to work with! You too will feel like a pro!
I have this rule though, if I put a lot of make up or color on my eyes I always use a nude or light pink color on my mouth...otherwise it can look a little too much.

Good luck everyone and have a great day!

(If you don't have any of those stores in your area you can always order online

From blonde to dark brown



Yep! I finally did it! My hair went from blonde to dark brown in just a couple of hours.
And I got to say that I LOVE it! My eyes are actually blue and not blue/gray anymore.

Having a darker color of your hair highlights a lot of different colors in your face too. And it's easier to "get away" with more make up and you can have like blue eye shadow without it looking weird. And I can FINALLY mark my eye brows the way I want.
I really thought it through before I did it though. Otherwise I would prabably been more shocked by the result then I actually was. But it is a big step to take, so just make sure you really want to do it. I Thank my hairdresser Maria for the fantastic result, she's the best!

Well, one of the steps is taken to a better fall and winter now. Happy coloring!!

Thanks for reading this and have an awesome day!!

My inspirations

I get inspired by a lot of things. It could be a movie, an interview with someone interesting or someone random I just met. I love it when people just kind of rush by and leave a big mark just by being "great" in their own way.
Lately I've been very inspired by Kandee Johnson - the one and only. She's this amazing make up artist who has a great blog (check it out here) Even though she's fantastic as a make up artist she's even more fabulous as a person! She's the kind of person you wish you had as a friend from the very first minute you see her.
She has taught me a lot about make up through her videos on YouTube, but she has also taught me to be more positive and fun!
So if you feel a little bit down and gray, please watch her videos on YouTube, and I guarantee you feel a lot better! Check out her YouTube channel here)

Now I'm gonna take a picture of my new wallet (love it!) and try to learn how to upload pics on this blog...

"Have an awesome day"! And thanks for reading this :)
