Cut crease makeup inspiration

I flipped through a bit the archive and found some lovely cut crease makeup! It always itches a little extra in the fingers when I see this type of makeup, must do one again soon :)

Picked up some of my favorites! Love number 6, I would love to have it if I were to go out and dance one summer night!

Open your eyes makeup look

It's been a long time since I did a proper step by step make-up, have been missing it!

I had this make-up at work yesterday and received an incredible amount of compliments, which felt very fun. A cool look with attitude :)

Hope you like it!

Alopecia - Tattooed eyebrows & eyeliner

Do you remember the make-up on Anneli who has alopecia that I showed you in April? You can read that post here where I show before and after and write about makeup tips for people who do not have eyelashes or eyebrows.

Today Anneli was with us at Creative Makeup By Her in Uppsala again, but this time it was not for makeup tips and products but for permanent makeup! :)

Look how beautiful she is, and how awesome Annika is:

What difference does it make? The world's most wonderful person, both inside and out :) ♥

You can book an appointment for permanent makeup directly in the spring website, and the price for all this that Anneli has done is 9500: - (eyebrows, eyeliner medium up + eyeliner down) but if you have alopecia, you can get the eyebrows paid by the county council.

Hugs are!

Birthday makeup

You know what? It's my birthday today!!! :)

Now I am 23 summers old and celebrating my birthday at work for the first time in my whole life. I have always had summer vacation or not been scheduled for my birthday, so it feels a little different actually but we only opened at 14.00 today so I have had a cozy birthday morning with the family who sang me up with packages in the morning (the happiest in the world!) And then have I had a really wonderful working day with a lot of congratulations from nice customers and colleagues ♥

And even though it's hard with the first birthday without my mother, it still feels like she's with me all day! She has always made my birthday feel so incredibly special, and celebrating it will always feel magical thanks to her :)

I, who have barely put on my make-up in four weeks, have dressed up a little extra for the day! Curls in my hair and a new dress that I got as a birthday present, and a quick but extra nice make-up with eyeliner and red lips.

A make-up that fits evenly, both for everyday, party, gala and ball. And it does not take much longer than a "just-base-and-mascara make-up", just eyeliner and lipstick and you are done! :)

IMG_0929_111 I love, love, love this lipstick from gloMinerals! Red lips without having to improve on the precipice in the quarter, it is matte and lasts incredibly well! Now that I am writing this, it is 6 pm, I put on make-up at 1 pm, and still have not improved at all - and still do not need it :)

Now I will have a meeting with Annika and Miska and at the same time eat a small bite to eat, we have a lot to catch up on now that we have barely talked about work for a whole month.

Hugs are! ♥

Organic skin care from Natura Siberica

As you know, I LOVE organic products, my weak point;) and at the beginning of the summer I received a press release with products from the organic skin and hair care brand Natura Siberica that have been available in Sweden for some time.

Natura Siberica is a Russian brand with natural and organic products made from wildly harvested plants and herbs from Siberia. And today I was going to show you the products that I have put to the test! :)

I got home a makeup remover, a lotion that gives the skin a golden glow, and a day cream for the face with spf 20.

Natura Siberica Moisturizing Foam Eye Make Up Remover
As you can see in the picture, this is a creamy cleansing foam that removes makeup. If you have a dark and waterproof party make-up, it is not the most effective cleaning, but I absolutely think that it is very good for everyday make-up.

Used together with water, and when I have tested it, I have used it for the whole face and not just the eyes, even though it is for removing eye makeup.

The foam is extremely creamy and delicious, almost like whipped cream, and smells fresh and good. Love it! The foam cleanses the skin and is at the same time caring. Contains, among other things, rose root which stimulates the metabolism and restores the renewal of skin cells. As well as wild rosehips that soothe and moisturize.

Natura Siberica Vivid Vitamins
A moisturizing gel lotion with gold shimmer that gives radiance to the skin.

I always tend to be skeptical of these as most people just make the skin glittery, and I do not like to be glittery. But even though it seems to contain quite large glitter grains, it becomes very mild on the skin. You absolutely do not look glittery, you see a few individual glitter grains if you look closely and "look" for it on the skin but I think it gives a really nice, discreet glow only!

The scent is fresh and mild, and the gel penetrates super quickly into the skin, which feels smooth afterwards. Contains, among other things, cloudberries, blackberries, rosehips and blueberries that increase the skin's elasticity and moisturize.

The packaging is a spray bottle but there is no spread in the spray that it is like a mist, but spray by hand and lubricate like a regular lotion.

Natura Siberica Aralia Mandshurica Day Cream SPF 20
A day cream that moisturizes and nourishes dry skin, and also has sun protection 20. It is very comfortable on the skin and goes in very quickly! I who have quite oily skin may think that it looks shiny for a while after smearing if you take quite a lot of cream - but you do not need it because it is very thick and light in texture so a little goes a long way.

I have very sensitive skin and can easily experience that it feels tight if I do not have a sufficient emollient face cream, but I do not get it at all with this but think that the skin feels both moisturized and soft, without lying as a layer on the surface. In addition, it smells very good!

Summary - I have not tested these products for such a long time that I can say something about how the skin is affected in the long run, but I have got a really good first impression of Natura Siberica and highly recommend these products! They feel really good both in terms of content and quality, and in addition they are very affordable with prices between 100-300 kronor, most products are around 150 kronor.

They are available at several different retailers, but you can read more about the brand at naturasiberica.se and on among other things bluestore.se are the products to buy online.

Hugs are! ♥
