What would I do without him ♥

Conversation between me and Miska Last night, when we talked about my makeup videos:

I - Hjäääälp I can not look at myself!
Miska - You are just self-critical, you are super good after all!
I - "Tells about all errors and mistakes"
Miska - But, you should still cut that off.
I - Yes but I have to look at the shit while I cut haha. Oh what if I just left here, you go through the movies and cut off all the awful, then I can just approve the finished movie later.
Miska - Yes, we can do that!
I - Miska, I was joking.
Miska - But I can do it!

So you understand ?? I went home to my sister, drank tea, chewed chocolate balls and cuddled but my nieces and nephews, while Miska sat and worked with all my chaotic makeup movies haha ♥

As soon as I publish a video tutorial on yesterday's smokey eye, fun huh ?! :)

me and mila

Mia and I braided the hair of the trolls, so that they would have lots of curls in school / kindergarten today :) What else do you have to muster for!

Think what fun then when they start going to the disco and stuff, then I get to help with make-up!

Wonderful evening simply, and when I got home Miska got a back massage! Mainly because he is so kind, but also because I got home a press sample of a massage oil from Rituals, and it needed to be put to the test of course;)

Now I will be working on the film on Youtube and you will see it very soon!

Hugs are ♥

Smokey eyes

Hi fine ni! :)

I have filmed several make-up videos in recent days, but when I look through them I do not think anyone is good enough to be published haha. I feel the worst relaxed and cool when I film, but when I watch the movies I look kind of stiff-operated! I do not get it…

Wondering if I'm always like that! I just walk around thinking I'm a simple and funny person, and I'm the worst strap haha!

Anyway. I actually filmed today's make - up, and we'll see if I publish it or not;) It's at least a classic smokey eye, and I'm offering the pictures for so long quite simply!

Lifts and diss Yves Rocher products

I have been spamming some Yves Rocher products in recent days, but that's just because I've been asked to write as much as possible before my discount code YRHELENA expires, which it does after today!

So now I thought I would compile which products I like, and which you (in my opinion) should not spend money on and why!

I have tested as much as possible from this brand and like the principle around it, it is natural and environmentally friendly but still cheap thanks to the fact that Yves Rocher owns everything himself, everything from the crops to the sale, no middlemen who snatch money with others word :)

And with that said, there are some products that stand out a little extra here at home, some I like super duper a lot, and even though I like most things, there are also a few products that do not appeal to me at all.

Hope this post is appreciated! :)

Thumbs down:

Velvety Loose Powder - The powder works as it should, but it smells super strong, so much that it sticks in the nose !! So it is only used in emergencies.
Sunscreen Zero Trace Spray - I brought this with me to Cape Verde, but it was too oily and does not go into the skin quickly enough. With a sun protection factor, you have to be careful and take quite a lot so that you get properly everywhere, but with this you wanted to be frugal to be able to put on linen and shorts and go to the beach without getting oil stains on clothes.
Gentle Eye Makeup Remover - A remover for sensitive eyes, works but is not super effective directly, and it also stings the eyes, which is strange because it is adapted for sensitive eyes! Their two-phase remover is much, much better.

Thumbs up:

Mascara Volume Vertige - My favorite mascara from Yves Rocher! I have one in every color! Provides both volume, bend, separation and good durability.
Waterproof Eye Pencil - Waterproof eyeliner in several nice colors, pigment-rich and durable, I love them all!
Loose Pearls - Glittery false eye shadows, no matter how nice! The shade 05 is my absolute favorite, it is so very useful.
Express Eye Makeup Remover - This makeup remover for eye makeup is ruggedly good!
Ultra Long-Lasting Cream Eyeshadow - Waterproof cream eye shadows, nice, easy to apply and sit like a rock!
Grand Rouge Lipstick - All their lipsticks are great no matter what, and I especially love the Grand Rouge series. Super beautiful on the lips, pigment-rich, full-coverage and available in lots of nice colors.

Which Yves Rocher products do you like / dislike? :)

Summery perfume from Yves Rocher

Soon it's time for this year's Swedish Beauty & Cosmetic Awards and I'm invited to the gala again this year, yeeey! :)

And quite recently I received a small mailing with the Yves Rocher products nominated this year, and one of them is the perfume Moment of Happiness L'Eau de Toilette which is nominated in the category "Women's fragrance of the year under SEK 500".

Yves Rocher is known for his good perfumes and this is not the first year one of their perfumes has been nominated in this category. Last year, they had two nominated fragrances, one of which actually won as well! It was the men's perfume Ambre Noir that I think is heavenly good! I do not really like to gender products, but the categories in beauty awards are called that :)

Scents are unbelievably very tasty, but to be brutally honest, Yves Rocher's steam perfumes have never appealed to me at all. EXCEPT THIS, oh my god, this one so good I want to pour it over me haha! :)

Moment de Bonheur was launched last summer and it feels like a good timing to recommend it now again, it feels very springy and summery, It is very fresh, sweet without being slimy, floral without being too strong and perfectly fruity!

"Rose scent with challenged freshness" is how it is described by Yves Rocher. It is a mixture of rose and apple with hints of cedar, and I think it feels very feminine at the same time as it is youthful. Summer scents suit everyone! :)

Any of you who smelled this? Do you agree with me?

Highlight your eyes!

One of my favorite trio palettes from Paese is the shimmery shade 111 Luxury, I have shown make-up with it before and here is another one!

This is a good everyday make-up if you want to emphasize the eyes in a soft but effective way! It is quick and easy to do too, offers a step by step :)
