It's like that..

And that's the way it is, HUH!

Hiilen is an awesome make up-blogger, and at the moment she's throwing a Make Up Store Madness compitition. HERE'S the link to that.

To all you non-swedish speakers out there, the blog is written in swedish.
But who needs language when a picture says a thousend words, right?
The pictures and the make ups are just as awesome with out the words.

Thai-night

Me and the guy went out for some thaifood at this amaaazing restaurant about three weeks ago.
And I had little time to do my make up, so of course I did something time-consuming which got sloppy due to ..well.. the time ran out. It's not perfect. I have used these colours before. But I like them.
Also, I knew that the thai-place had alot of uv-lights.

Sleek Acid-palette - Orange, Yellow, Dark pink, blue (dont know which) White (for highlight)
Make Up Store c/s - Metallic Plum
Peggy Sage Cake eyeliner - Noir
Make Up Store Multi Lash - Black (veeeery dried out)
Could be something more in this make up. But I dont remember.

 Took photos in a hotel bathroom. No good lights. Made me mad.

And oh. Bout them uv-lights.
I smacked on the neons in the acid-palette because I thought they would react to the uv and glow and all that cool stuff.
But since my guy did not say anything about it, I guessed it failed.
He told me later that it acutally glowed a bit. So now I have no pictures of it.

This is how the walls in the bathroom of the restaurant looked like.

 And a ... weird figurine ... doing something to itself in the actuall restaurant. Wtf. Why would they put up something like that where people eat.
I thought it was hilarious, but other people might not have that unserious thouch on life that I have.

Some updates on the updates!

Thanks a bunch for all the nice comments on the FUCK CANCER-post!
My friend has got a day set for the operation next week, we're keeping our fingers crossed.

And the angst room in the update-post might not be my final resting zone.
Im meeting a nice, old lady tomorrow to look at a room closer to school and friends, with a livingroom I can use and a room that will fit me and my stuff.
'Bout the cats.. I'll have to persuade her. She's an old lady. They need cats. Right?

I have some new EOTD's for you, but sooon my friends. Soon. Im keeping quiet (..well kinda) on the blog just a little while longer. To get my shit togheter.
Bought some new things. Wanted to buy a shit load of brushes from Everyday minerals, but the shipping cost was so frekking high. $23? For five brushes? Really? What?

So. Im thinking Sugarpill. Im thinking Sleek. Tikei. Everyday Minerals. NYX. Wet 'n Wild.
Any more student- and animal friendly cosmetics?
I neeeeed new brushes. Plox halp!

Oh. This is a contact ad btw.
I am in need of a new friend. Kinda near where I live.
A wacky one. Who is interested in make up.
Who likes tea or coffee and animals. Kay?
I need to have feedback and tips with an ordinary person!

I love my friends, but non of them share my biggest interest. I am the one who gives tips and help them out, which is also awesome. But I need the feedback of someone who knows.. you know. Things.
Whiny post again. Sorry. Ad over! :D

FUCK CANCER.

Just writing out som angst and a little, tiny pled.

As some of you might know, my sister passed away the autum of 2010.
At 32 years old the cancer that she had been struggeling with for a few years, spread out everywhere and took over. There was nothing we could do.
The sentence was: Not much left. Maybe a month or two.
One week later, she was gone.

Nobody knew what had happen. The nurses was allmost as baffled as us.
Still too this day we dont know why it went so fast.

The girl whoms sofa I've been borrowing since last autum, 2011, is a breast cancer survivor.
And she got some bad news last week.
Swollen lymph nodes in the chest, just next to (actually bumping into) the aorta.
The doctors did not know why, so she got a new appointment to look closer (aka camera in body)
Its been a week now, and the appointment has not happend yet.

Can you imagen?
A week with not knowing if you have a future? If you're going to plan your own funeral or planning the rest of your life? To plan for another painful time of radiation or cytotoxins?

Its painful to see. Its painful to re-live.
Fuck cancer.
Yeah. FUCK IT.

Been googling around and found this.

This site was awesome. Be sure to check out The Shirts For A Cure Project (From which the shirt is from)
The shirts proceed are used to help  people with breast cancer.
(And check out the awesome bracelets!)

Or chip in to any cancer-awareness of your choice.
Im checking in an awesome purple hoodie with the text FUCK CANCER from the swedish response to Generation Y - Ung Cancer.

and for you internationals LetFcancer

Keep invincible.
Cheers.

On some random note..

This woman could be related to the beautiful miss Viola, more known as Killer Colours
Right? No?
Like her grandmas mother or something

Update

Hi guys.
As you may have noticed, I'm not quite back yet.
I'm back in school again, since monday.
Back with living in a bag and rarly having time for anything else.

Hoping this will change soon though.
The first of febuary I'm moving to a new place. Not my own place though. Wah.
Renting a room 7 km from school. I'm a bit whiny about that.
And the fact that the owner says that I can have my two darling cats there, but I have to have them in my room when I'm not at home.
Yeah. A litterbox and two bored cats in a small room is definitly a good idea. Or is it?

Good news is that I, hopefully, wont be shitpoor any more. Which means I can buy more stuff and play around and show you stuff again. Im feeling uninspired with what I have, and with thoes horrible brushes that keep shedding on my face.

Keep your fingers crossed, I know I am!
Find a reason to celebreate, and always be invincible.
Until we meet again, ciao!

(Gorram what a serious ending.
In my language of unseriousness it means: Party hard, I'll be back. Bye!)

Swatch: Lumene Lingonberry Lasting Lip Stain & Balm - 10 Promise

I've seen this product in a lot of swedish beauty blogs, and 10 Promise was the only one that caught my eye (especially from THIS post) even thought that it maaaybe to pink for me.
But it such a dark pink that is does not bother me. (I have a problem with putting pink make up with red hair). It works well, no?

Either way. Here is the lip stain and my thoughts around it.

One stroke  to the left (or over..)
Two strokes  to the right (or lower..)

Just the stain. About two coats.
It's quite hard to get even.. 

And with the balm on.

Around here I realized that it looks kinda like MAC Satin Lipstick in Rebel, but a bit pinkier.

Rebel on top

Promise is the two lower ones. 

In the winter my lips are soo dry most of the time. The stain it self is a little moistureising, but not enough for my lips so the balm was really needed.

I wore it a night out for some beers wih a friend, and I did had to re-apply it a few times, but it could be due to licking of my dry lips. 

When I wore it with Rebel on top it stayed on reeeally good. The guy was slightly pink on his lips but hey, Rebel is not smudgeproof.  

All in all, a good buy!

I bought it for 115 kr (€13,55, $17,44) at Kicks.

Lingon + rebel = Love

Im great at disappearing from teh interwebz, arent I?

Either way. I bought Lumenes lingonberry lip stain nr 10 - promise (review coming soon) and it's kinda the same color as Macs lipstick Rebel. So I put them both togheter and posed for my iphone. From wich Im writing.

Apperently my header has checked out for good. Dont know why. But Im trying to build a new, better one. And that means a new design. And Im bad at designs. And headers.

Damnit.

EDIT: Well.. It's green. And I dont like having a picture of my self in the header like that..
Tried to just put in some make up-stuff, but it looked awful.
I'll just settle for this one until it buggs the crap out of me. Cheers!
