Colourful Wednesday: Pink Eye

Oh late post again. I have no sense of day these days, so sorry. Haha.
I did my make up this morning, and forgot it was wednesday, and it was a muted, naturalcoloured make up.
So I did this in a haste, on only one eye. So no face pics ^^
I keep blabbing about geting outside your comfort zone and doing things you normally wouldn't do. So I did a pink make up. And no liner. Cool huh? ;>
Haha. Erh. 'Nuff blabbing. Here's bad pictures.

Girls day in

Went back to my old hometown to visit a friend last week.
We tend to drink a bit of whine and go berserk on make up.
I spend my time painting her sister though, so I was to lazy to go berserk on myself..

Colourful Wednesday: Swedish!

Yep, its thursday. I fell asleep while photoshop was installing. Sorry bout that >:
So, yesterday was the Swedish national day. It's a weird day in Sweden actually.. For a few years is has been.. an "ugly" thing to celebrate this day. If you celebrated, you where a racist. Did not get that logic. :')
Now a days, it's a rebellion against the other years so people celebrate just to be rebells. Kind of. Haha.
As I said. It's a weird day.
It's frowned upon to be a proud swedish. Been thinking a bit about this. The American flag is a fashionthing now. People wear jackets and pants and shoes with the yankeeflag.
If one where to wear these sorts of clothes with the swedish flag.. It would not be appreciated.
Enough of my confsed rant. On to make up.

So. Since it was the national day, I went for the swedish colours. Of course.
Im not very pleased with this.. Certainly not the day after, it looks even gooyer today






Well hello weird hair..

New!

New header, and blogwidth. What do you think?
Im not so sure about the "reason to celebrate" font and position, but I want it on the header.. so.. Yeah.
Suggestions?

Quick question..

I have been receaving Glossyboxes from three months now, and I haven't reviewed anything but the perfume yesterday. 
For you who does not know what Glossybox is, is basically a subscription for beauty products. You pay a fairly low price, and once a month a cute package with practical boxes ( I use mine ones for lashes, candles, eyeshadows etc..) with five products in them. Sometimes fullsized products, sometimes small versions. Never testers though, allthough they can be in the boxes as extra suprises.



So this is what I have recieved the last three months, I know the pic is hidious with the x-es and all, but wtf. You get the point behind them ^^

From the Mars-box, that had the theme "Back to nature"
  • Mádara Ecocosmetics - Toning Shower Soap (25ml/travelsize)
  • Fruit Gorilla and Friends - Caring Lipbalm Rasberry (15g/fullsize)
  • Burt's Bees - Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream (17g/fullsize)
  • L'Occitane - Shea Hand Cream (10ml/minisize)
  • Loréal Paris - Color Riche Le Vernis (5ml/mini)
Cant wrap my head around why Loréal was in this naturefriendly box? 

April-box, which contained winning products from the Swedish Beauty & Cosmetics Awards
  • The Body Shop - Earth Lovers Lemon and Thyme Shower Gel (250ml/fullsize)
  • Replay - Jeans Spirit! For her - EdT & Shower Gel (40ml/travelsize + tester EdT)
  • Maria Nila - Kolorit Volume Powder (50ml/fullsize)
  • Garnier - BB Cream Light (50ml/fullsize)
  • Illamasqua - Sheer Lipgloss Violate (7ml/fullsize)
And the May-box, dont know the name of this one yet.. But summer and scents was the main focus
So.. to my question. S. Questions.

Do you want a review of any of these products?
In the future, would you like to see what I get in every box?
Should I review the products right away, or only the things you beautiful readers want to know more about?

Review: Love and Toast - Sugar Grapefruit Perfume

When I am at the fruitsection in a store, I almost always stop and smell the pink grapefruits. It is the best smell ever. And almost every time I smell those damn nice fruits, I say "I want a perfume that smells like this."
And then my glossybox arrived this morning. With this wonderful little (7,5ml) thing.

 Love and Toast - Sugar Grapefruit Perfume

It smells like sugarcoated pink grapefruits! Yay!






 I am so bad at putting my finger on notes in perfumes. All I can sniff is that it is a much sweeter smell that grapefruits. But the pink grapefruit is still very noticeble. The notes are Pink grapefruit, Orange citrus and musky lily.
The scents comes from essential oils, no synthetics, the alcohol in it is made from corn and it's not tested on animals.


My problems with this is that the scent does not stay long on the skin. Not what I can smell any way, but its quite hard to smell your own neck. I do smell a tiny bit of citrusy sweetness on the wrist. But barely noticeble. Haha. 
And the fact you see on the picture above. Just a opening in the bottle. I practically showered in this today, because Im a cluts. 

Even though it does not last very long, I still love this perfume. And I do not grow fond of sweet smells. But this is so nice and summery. Lovely. Im gonna wear this all summer. Wonder if it blends well with Illamasquas Freak, for those partynights.. Hrrhrr..



Colourful Wednesday: Purple Quarter

This make up looks more messy in pictures than it is irl ._.
As you might noticed from a lot of my pictures, my liner does that kind of bump under the wing?
I have a weird eyeshape for liner. It's really frustrating. If I make it a smal line the eyes look droopy, so I have to make it thick all the time. And that bump.. well. I dont want to make it thicker :')
