Moon Rock by IsaDora (Makeup)

Dark / Party makeups

Aug 14, 2015

I was asked to do a make-up with IsaDora's new eye shadows (Moon Rock), partly to show but also to review the durability and so on. So I did today! :)

It became a sooty look with the 4 palette 04 Moon Rock, and I think the shadows are good and easy to work with. IsaDora's glittery shadows before were often a little too crumbly, and adhered poorly, but their new variants are much better and as long as you have eyeshadow primer (which I always have) they adhere well and sit all day too, even the glittery colors.

IsaDora's shadows are not the best on the market, but most are absolutely good :)

The lipstick is also one of IsaDora's news - IsaDora Perfect Matt Lipstick in shade 07 Nude Pink.

I have used all the shades from the palette in my make-up today. And since I got the desire to review a little closer, I can say that if I had made this palette, I would have liked to have seen the dark blue color more blue, it has blue pigments in it but becomes kind of dark gray on the skin. And the black shade I would have liked completely carbon black, it is also a bit messy. But otherwise I like them, and I love the bright silvery one!

Primer first with eyeshadow primer - Pixi Eye Bright Primer

1. Light silvery eye shadow in the middle of the eyelid (m. Nanshy Pencil Brush)
2. Dark blue eye shadow innermost and outermost on the eyelid (m. Nanshy Tapered Crease Brush)
3. Fade the edges and apply it dark blue shade also along the globe line (m. Nanshy blending eyeshadow brush)
4. Black eye shadow as lash marking + soot in the lower edge inside and outside of the eyelid (m. Nanshy Pencil Brush)
5. Apply it light silver, silvery and dark blue shade next to each other on the lower lash line (m. Nanshy Pencil Brush)
6. Blue eyeliner along the waterline, Pixi Endless Silky Eye Pen (Black Blue)
7. Black mascara on all lashes, IsaDora Grand Volume Lash Styler

Rouge - Paese Powder Blush (40)
Highlighter / blush (at the highest point of the cheekbones) - Zuii Organic Sparkle Rouge (Berry)

Hope you like the look! ♥

Color your hair rosé at home

What rosé is for hair color does not have a correct answer, many mix rosé and rosé gold but you can say briefly that rosé is a pink shade that goes in the red direction (like rosé wine) and then it can be combined with other shades e.g. rose gold, dusty rose, copper gold m, m.

If you are blonde and put in a rosé tone, it will be a very light rosé hair color, you can also call it strawberry blonde. If you have a darker and warmer tone on your hair (which I had), it will be a little more rose gold. It is also super nice to mix in rosé in a cool brown hair color, e.g. just in the tops, love it!

A tip if you want to try dyeing your hair rosé at home, whether you want it in the whole hair or just loops / in the tops, it is to use Maria Nila Color Refresh in the shade Pink pop, which is a colored pink hair wrap :)

I have dyed my hair rosé with a pastel pink shade (Wella Instamatic Pink Dream) over copper that I basically had. But that coloring is not quite as rosé as I am now, but I use Maria Nils pink hair wrap as well and it gives the hair this slightly more intense tone!

I've brutally longed to have some silver shampoo too, just to see what happens. If it becomes more purple or if only the warm tones stop shining through. What do you think? :)

Maria Nila's wrapping is awesome good anyway! I think it lasts much better than Revlon, plus it is made in Sweden, is completely vegan and also contains the caring argan oil that my hair likes :)

But just like all the other colored wraps I have tested, the hair absorbs different amounts of color in different places, so it is a bit difficult to get it even. But with rosé in particular, I actually do not think it matters that it changes a little differently in different places, I just think it's nice!

In other words - If you are craving rosé, no matter what your hair color is now, try it Maria Nila Pink Pop! It is washed out after a few washes, so you do not have to worry if you do not like the result :) (However, it does not adhere to untreated hair)

Maria Nila - Pink Pop 300ml can be found at Lyko! :)

Two thumbs up!

Here also an old post about that blonde hair at home, feel free to read it too if you want to see how I did. :)

Make the nail polish last longer with Mineral smooth

Make the nail polish last longer with Mineral smooth

When I went and did gel nails at a salon a long time before, I realized how much an even nail surface does for the durability of the nail polish.

Because even though I had nice nails all the time then, I wanted to vary, and used to paint my nails with different nail polish anyway. And gosh what they kept good! Even natural nails often have small irregularities that cause the varnish to drop, but on a smooth surface, nail polish lasts much, much longer.

So it's an experience I carry with me, and before the nail polish is painted on, I polish the surface with a polishing file (I use Depends 4-step file) which makes the nails smooth.

And then, as the finishing touch, I use a base coat that evens out the nail surface:

Mineral Smooth contains small mineral particles that even out the surface of the nail and make the paint varnish more durable and even. The varnish protects the nails from discoloration and can be used individually or as an undercoat. Also contains vitamin E which nourishes the nail.

Mineral Smooth costs 79 kronor :)

It will soon be sold out, so be careful if you do not want to wait until I get the next delivery from Paese!

Shout out if you have any questions ♥

Dark romance & Bohemian Rose

In the IsaDora kit Rock and Romance that I wrote about this morning so I showed, among other things, the lipstick "177 Dark Romance" and the nail polish "518 Bohemian Rose" and I tested them together immediately :)

Here you see how nice they got together:

The first impression of the lipstick is that it got a little unevenly dark for some reason, do not know what it was due to but will test again and see if it will be the same. Otherwise, I like both colors very much!

The lipstick is called Dark Romance, and looks very dark in the sleeve. There is an equally dark nail polish that is also called Dark Romance, but I think that the lipstick becomes so much lighter after application that it resembles the nail polish Bohemian Rose more actually. Even though the lipstick goes pink while the nails are red, nice contrast I think! What do you think? :)

The perfumes Feguia 1833 - Now on Eleven.se!

Last autumn, I blogged about the perfume Aqua Magnoliana from the fine perfume brand Feguia 1833, a perfume that quickly became a favorite of mine! I blogged about it after smelling it (read sniffed for like 10 minutes) at an event I was at with Beauty.theyouway.se. It was not allowed to come home with me then, the wallet said no, but a few weeks later it came in a nice package in the mail from a wonderful reader who read my tip and bought it, and was so happy with the tip that she wanted to thank me, and therefore bought one for me too ♥♥♥

After my blog posts about this beauty, I have received some emails from people wondering where to buy it. Beauty.theyouway.se no longer exists, and it was the only site (at least the only Swedish one) that sold it online. I know it is available at NK, but it does not help people outside Stockholm.

BUT NOW dear friends, I saw by chance that it is available on Eleven.se, and not only that, it is not as expensive there either as it was on theyouway :) Now it is available in two different sizes and you will find both here!

This is how the scent is described:
“Pure and fresh scent of magnolia with an ounce of citrus and sweetness. The scent is a tribute to Magnolia Amazonica - a tree that can grow to a height of over 60 meters. At night, their white luminous flowers open and spread a euphoric scent. Main notes: Amazon magnolia, Santalum album, Grandiflorum jasmine The perfume comes in an exclusive handmade wooden box with lid. ”

Fragrance notes:
Magnolia, citrus and jasmine.

Should I describe the perfume in just three words, it is without a doubt healthy, clean and fresh, it goes a little in the sweet direction while it also smells a little sour.

It is a classic scent where you only think that the person smells good, and not that the person has a good perfume. It does not become sticky strong or slippery sweet in any way, but has an absolutely perfect balance!

And it is noticeable that it is luxurious even when you spray, because when you press it is not a hard spray spray that comes, but it is soft and "slow" so you have time to sweep with the bottle so that all perfume does not end up on the same area. In addition, you do not have to press down completely, and can therefore vary if you want a full spray or just a little.

The scent lasts a long time even though it is edp, and despite the price, it still gets five out of five stars from me!

Offers a picture from the event, here I stand with the perfume in my hand and am completely inside all the info I hear about the brand :) Of all the perfumes on the table, it was Agua Magnoliana that I fell for the most!

Fueguia 1833 is a South American fragrance brand that manufactures perfumes in its own laboratory in Buenos Aires. Founder Julian Bedel produces unique fragrances with inspiration and ingredients from Patagonia's nature, and the company has a great environmental mindset - each perfume is made by hand and bottled in recycled glass.

The handwritten the labels also make each bottle unique! Wonderfully! :)

Do you want to treat yourself to a little extra luxury, or do not know what to give as a nice gift to a person you like a lot, then I can definitely recommend Fueguia 1833 Agua Magnoliana, I am so happy that I have it!

Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday ♥
