Pur Minerals Secret Crush Palette - Swatch

Some news from Pür Minerals that you have seen in my latest posts have not been launched yet, but some of them have actually come out in stores today and one of them I thought I would show you a little closer now :)

Pur Minerals Secret Crush Eye Shadow Palette is an incredibly useful eyeshadow palette with 8 different shades:

I think this palette is absolutely perfect! Eight earthy shades from very light to very dark, and are available in both matte and shimmery colors, which I love as I prefer to combine matte and shimmer in my make-up - it gets a little more depth and feeling then I think.

The shadows are incredibly pigment-rich, adhere well, are easy to work with and are mineral-based and contain vitamin E which nourishes the sensitive skin around the eyes.

The price is SEK 560, so it is quite juicy, but definitely worth it for those of you who mostly use this type of eye shadow! The palette has everything you need and SEK 560 for eight mineral eye shadows is actually not particularly expensive if you compare with mineral shadows that you buy in single form.

Here comes a swatch over the shades!

Fina va? :)

The palette also comes with an eyeshadow brush that is actually really good! It is super soft and good to make nice tones with. Two thumbs up!

I probably have nothing negative at all to say about this palette, I love it :) ♥

Secret Crush makeup - Makeup with earthy eyeshadow palette

This make-up is made with eye shadows from Pür Minerals' new eye shadow palette "Secret Crush Eye Shadow Palette”Which is so heavenly nice! Will show a swatch on the whole palette later today I thought :)

I also have their new lip stain on me in the shade Cosmo, which I absolutely love! But it has not been launched yet, unfortunately, but the one who is waiting for something good.

Today's make-up is in any case a quick and easy look that highlights the eyes very nicely. Hope you like it!

Apply rust red eyeshadow on the entire eyelid and lower lash line.
Light up in the middle of the eyelid and in the corner of the eye with a light shadow.
Darken down on the sides of the eyelid (closest to the lash line) and at the end of the lower lash line with a dark brown eye shadow.
Finish with mascara, then it's ready! :)

Mascara - Oriflame Wonderlash Mascara
Foundation - Zuii Organic Powder Foundation
Sunscreen - Paese Bronzing Powder (1M)

What do you think? :) ♥

There have been a lot of requests for various prom make-ups lately, super fun!

Unfortunately, I do not have time to do all of them for you, but therefore I now thought to publish a small image bomb with links to old posts, and show some make-up I have done before that fits perfectly such as prom make-up, school graduation make-up, student make-up, etc :)

When I think of such make-ups for prom and similar events, I think of colors such as brown, gold and pink, preferably a lot of shimmer and light shades that at the same time emphasize the eyes nicely. Preferably a color click also if you like it, perhaps that matches some detail on a piece of jewelry or the like.

Hope the post is appreciated ♥

Here is a brown and at the same time light balm make-up that enlarges the eyes with an elongated cat eye shape. Read more about this makeup in this post!

This make-up is a slightly more discreet bale make-up that still emphasizes the eyes. Has a bit more cool earthy tones. Read more about this makeup in this post!

A classic eyeliner with a wing is always a safe card, classic and stylish. You can also spruce up with a color click that I have done in this bale make-up. Read more about this makeup in this post!

Here is an example of how you can spruce up your eyeliner, super nice even on a light eye shadow make-up :) Read more about this make-up in this post!

Gold tones give a wonderful goddess feeling - super nice for a white dress! This would have been my student make - up if I had been allowed to take the student again :) Read more about this make - up in this post!

A peach-pink bale make-up that in a bright and discreet way adds a little color to life. Read more about this makeup in this post!

A neutral and very simple make-up that enlarges the eyes very nicely. Read more about this makeup in this post!

I love eyeliner with color that you notice :) Here is another variant. Read more about this makeup in this post!

Light pink is so heavenly nice and fits everything! A super shimmery / almost metallic pink eye shadow is one of the nicest choices for you who love light, and who also find it a little difficult with eye shadow as this is super easy to do. Read more about this makeup in this post!’

I can also suggest the "browse the make-up tab" which I have at the top of the blog, where you can super easily get an overview of my make-up and quickly find what you are looking for. The easiest way is to choose one of the categories, then they will be in chronological order. If you just press browse through make-up, there will be random make-up inserts.

And do not forget the eyeshadow primer :)

Kiss hug!

False eye lash effect

At the event with Pür Minerals, there was a short discussion about mascaras with a false eyelash effect - what does that really mean?

In fact, I have never reflected on it, but mostly just assumed that it is perfect lashes that are longer and more beautiful than your natural ones. Most people thought that it was a lot of length and separation and possibly volume as well, and I am prepared to agree with that.

But there was one who said (do not remember who unfortunately) that false eyelash effect only means that the mascara reaches all lashes so that you have even lashes along the entire lash line, ie only from inner to outer corner of the eye. And it sounds very logical, on mascara descriptions it often says something like "length, volume and false eyelash effect" and not that the length and volume itself is the false eyelash effect.

I have tried to google around on this but have not found a sure source of what is true and not, but you can have it in the back of your mind when you buy a mascara because you want a false eyelash effect - it may not stand for exactly the properties really looking for! :)

No makeup makeup

Sometimes you just want to be completely unmade up, especially in the summer when everything is a little more relaxed and natural. And then you may have got a little color in the face as a help on the stack as well, which I have now even though it is with brown without sun from Eco by Sonya Lol.

At the same time, you may not want to be completely unmade up, you easily find that you look tired and dull. You want to feel like yourself - and not look more worn than you are :)

In any case, here is a "no makeup makeup", ie a make-up that looks unmade up - at the same time as you conjure away irregularities and emphasize both the skin and the eyes so that you look fresh and have a really fresh and nice glow!

Hope the post is helpful ♥

On the model, I am completely unmade up. I'm a little wrong person to show this on as I already have permanent makeup, but I have still strengthened both eyebrows and eyes to show you as clearly as possible. But the difference between you without tattoos will of course be bigger :)

The very best thing to do before the summer is to permanent and color the lashes, then they are dark and nice and have a nice bend constantly. However, I have done this for natural but visible lashes:

Lash marking with black eye shadow in the scalp of the lashes.
2. Bend the lashes with eyelash curler.
3. Paint the lashes with transparent mascara (I have used wrinkle from Anastasia)
4. Dab a little black eye shadow on the lashes before the gel has dried, and they get a discreet color.

In addition, I have filled in the eyebrows a little with a blonde eyebrow pencil - Benecos Eyebrow Designer Blonde.

The basic make-up is what makes the biggest difference, I think, I have used these products:

1. Face Primer & Mineral Foundation
I always apply with a face primer, regardless of whether I have a little or a lot of makeup. I use a debilitating (Paese Makeup Base Matte) but choose one that suits your skin type.

And with foundation, I prefer mineral foundation especially when you want to look unmade, because you do not have to have it all over your face, but it is enough in the areas you need to cover. I have Zuii Organic Powder Foundation in the shade Cream in the picture.

Many, like me, have quite large areas on the face that actually do not need coverage, I have some blemishes + is red around the nose and eyes, but otherwise the skin is very nice. So in these pictures I only have foundation where it is really needed and the rest of the face is actually completely unmade up! Around the jaw and almost the entire forehead, it is completely makeup-free.

2. Sunscreen & Rouge
A little extra color on the face is never wrong, it creates both life and shape! I have used Paese Bronzing Powder (1M) on the sides of the face, as well Paese Powder Blush (43) on the cheeks. Be sparing with this, there should only be a hint of color and you should not look so made up.

Lusts
Paese Glow Powder is magical when you want radiance on your face! I have swept with the brush over the cheekbones, chin, upper lip, nose, all over the eyes and in the forehead. Super fresh!

4. Eyes & lips
In the picture to the right up here you can see when the eyes are made as well, as I described at the beginning of the post. And on the last "finished" picture I was going to offer, I also have a little discreet lip gloss conditioner:

The lip gloss is Paese Balm Lip Gloss (625), which is a spring lip balm.

Briefly - Be frugal with makeup, you have a lot of bumps like that make there is nothing if everything is not covered. Emphasize the beautiful instead of hiding what you do not like. A little make-up, a lot of luster and a big smile on it :) And do not forget a moisturizing day cream with a high spf!

Hope you get a nice start to the new week ♥
