My February


As you can see, I rediscovered my love for 60's aesthetics. My hair was still as you know it at that point. 







I've changed it a little now! Because I couldn't make an appointment with my hairdresser for weeks, I decided to simply buy an ombre-kit and do it myself. I didn't ombre my hair though, I lightened the top part in a quiet natural-looking way. I wasn't going for stripy highlights. The result made me personally very happy, and today I got a haircut as well. As you can see, it's only slightly shorter, but has alot more shape and a nicer fall to it.

Fall Favorites and News


Pics of some of my favorite products lately. Some are very new, some I've already tried out and fallen in love with. Let me know if you have any of these or what your Fall-favorites are!

 The Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream
 Overall, I really like it. It's pretty thick and I cover sections of my face at a time, instead of dotting it all over. The coverage is perfect for slightly uneven pigmentation and red spots. The finish is so matt that I somethimes skip powder. The only minus is the lasting-power..There's hardly anything left at the end of a schoolday. 

The Nivea Lip Butter
This product has a very nice warm scent. It's a white, very sheer lipbalm that moisturises very well. A thick layer before bed guarantees silky soft lips the next morning. It's affortable and, in my opinion, comparable to the Korres Lip Butters. You really can't go wrong with this baby. 

The Body Shop Brazil Nut
Cream Body Scrub
I just got this today. I was completely out of bodyscrub, and since winter is coming, I find it important to have one. I've tried the Vanilla Body Scrub which was a limited edition during christmas, and I loved it. This seems similiar in texture and the smell is awesome. Nutty, but not too heavy. I'll let you know how this makes my skin feel!


Essie Allure Nailpolish
I got this color because I didn't own anything that was lighter than my skin. I love nude nails for the colder months, especially with contrasting dark makeup or clothes. This polish dries clear with one coat and has a beautiful milky finish with two. The nails look clean and neat.

Maybelline 287 Midnight Red Nailpolish
Burgundy is an absolute essential for fall/winter. The one I had was getting thick and gooey, so it had to go..
This polish looks nice with one coat, but still a little uneven. Two coats give a glossy finish. The staying power is not the strongest, maybe 3 days. I love the brush as well, not as wide as the essie ones. Overall a nice polish for this season.



Dove Shea Butter & Vanilla  Nourishing Lotion

A great skincare product. I really love this guys. It smells wonderful, really moisturises and sinks in withing 15 min. That's really important to me, for example, I stopped using bodybutters for that reason. But when I put this on after the shower, it sinks in while I brush my teeth and moisturise my face. Absolutely recommending it to you!

Lately Loving..


So I decided to make a post on my most used and loved products lately. As you can see, they're pretty basic, but I really enjoy them. Because some of the labels are rubbed off, here's an overview:
Maxfactor Mascara "False Lash Effect" 
MaxFactor eyeliner "Black Fire"
Mac eyeshadow "Orb" satin finish
VivalaDiva blush "Oh my!" nr. 3
Maybelline Colour tattoo "Bad to the bronze" 

These two give the prettiest autumn colour
