Makeup Look - Inspired by

Hello dolls!

A few days ago I saw a picture on Instagram with a makeup look that I really fell in love with! I'm not 100 % sure who it was but I think it might have been the Swedish fashion blogger Kenza. She had brown/bronze shades on her lids and a hectic sparkly green color on the lower lash line. As I can't find the picture I can't recall what color she had on her lips. As i think it was a nude color I went with a nudish pink.

As I said, that look was fantastic! I wanted to recreate it, but tone it down a notch so it could be easier to wear for everyone. I'm probably going to wear it as intense when I do this look the next time, but I think the way I did it now turned out nice as well. 

Pictures and product list below a always. 

Wishing you all a beautiful Wednesday! 

Before starting with the makeup I prepped my skin with Sensai Silk 10 seconds Awakening Essence. What it does is that it awakens the skin and senses (just as the label says) and provides extra defence against UV rays and external stress. It's also called a "Cinderella cream". The light texture feels really good on the skin, feels fresh and sinks in to the skin quickly. 

I just read that it works great as a makeup primer. Nothing that I've heard before thou so I did use a "regular" primer this time. I'm going to try and use it as a primer next time. 

Side note: I usually write the products going face > brows > eyes > lips. But I usually start with my eye makeup first so that I don't get fall out on my foundation. It also makes wiping away mistakes much easier

Makeup Look - Palma Waters

Hello chicas,

Just a few days ago I was enjoying a couple of days in the beautiful city of Palma in Mallorca (Majorca), where I was visiting my brother and his family. It's such an amazing place. We did some shopping, sightseeing, eating good food and drinking lots of Cava! From their house you could see the ocean, which was my inspiration for this look. Sitting here, in still a very cold Sweden I really just wanna go back there. 

On the last two pictures I added a light blue winged liner just as an option, black wing would look really good too. I hope you like this look and have a great day!

Makeup Look - Daytime Date

Hello lovies, 

For the past few weeks I've bought a bunch of new stuff that I really wanted to try out. A lot of the products I bought when I was in the US. I tried my best to find the products online so my readers outside of the US can try as well if you want to. Unfortunately not all are available. I'll try to have a haul up for you guys soon!
