Makeup Look - Pink Lips

Hello beautiful friends!

Todays look is all about a bright lip. Not much more to say about it. The soft eye makeup that I did is very versatile and works with any lip color of your choice. I had a new lipstick by KIKO so that's why I chose it for this look. Feel free to use your favorite lip color or why not try something bolder and perhaps outside your comfort zone - you might love it! 

Have a beautiful day :)

Makeup Look - Rosé

Hello ladies,

Todays look is a really simple one. I used to do looks like this all the time, when I worked more with loose pigments. Unfortunately I don't reach for my pigments as much anymore, but hopefully that will change. A look like this is very quick and easy. You don't need a pigment for this you can just as easily use a regular eyeshadow. What I did was just to put the loose pigment all over the lid, and when blending out the edges is gives the illusion of different colors. I also used a brown shadow on the outer part of the eye for a little bit of more effect. Perfect for when you're in a rush! 

Hope you're having a wonderful day!   
                                                            xoxo

Makeup Look - Lavender

Hello lovies, 

Imagine you go to work, do your 8 hours, drive back home a ride that usually takes 30 minutes but because of construction and traffic it takes almost 1 hour. Just as you're getting out of the car you realize you forgot you phone at work. Would you panic? Well this happened to me today and I panicked! I stood there seriously thinking if I should just drive back and get it or wait until the morning. 
I know that I'm very addicted to my phone but didn't really know how much. Haha it's kind of silly, I know, but since I got home I can't count how many times I "reached" for my phone. Ah well, I'll just have to suck it up and wait until tomorrow. What would you have done? 

Ok let's get to the real topic of the day, a new makeup look. Todays I have another colorful look for you guys! So playful and fun in my opinion. I bought a loose pigment by MAC when I was in Palma and I hadn't gotten around to use it yet. It's the star of the show today :)
I also show you two different lip color options. One really nude and one more nudish brown. 
I hope you like it!

A beautiful day spent in bed

Hello lovies, 



I have to admit that it feels like spring is finally here, but I'm not 100 % convinced yet! 
As I'm sitting on my couch at home not feeling very well, I see the beautiful blue sky and sun looking pretty outside. How I wish that I could be outside enjoying this, because here in Sweden you have to take advantage of every opportunity of sunshine since we don't have it a lot.  Not much to do about it today I guess. 

I've been in bed all day but finally managed to switch place to the couch. 
I was looking through some of my pictures on my computer and found some of a very pretty bride, Emma. Im not sure if I ever posted pictures of her last summer after having the honor to do her makeup on her big day. Might have slipped my mind in all the summer madness.  Anyways here are just a few pictures of the gorgeous bride Emma. Photo cred goes to her very talented sister Jenny that took amazing pictures. Emma got ready at the salon The Temple Lounge in Gothenburg.  

Where every you are in the world, I hope you're having an amazing day and get to enjoy the beauty of a blue sky and sunshine.
