"Excuse me miss, you've got a little bit of face on your makeup there"

2

Since I often do step-by-step make-up, I always test foot before I start putting on make-up, set the light, etc., so that it is ready later.

And it's always fun when you flip through the pictures and happen to go from the last to the first! This is what it looked like the other day:

Trollunge vs gorgeous resting bitch face;)

Press breakfast with LCC

As I wrote this morning, I was up with the rooster and started the day with a press breakfast with LCC - Blondinbella's beauty brand that is now launching its work out series!

The hair is torn off and washed frequently, and it is a common problem among people who exercise several times a week. You can, as it were, choose disgusting hair or worn hair. But this shampoo and conditioner is adapted to wash the hair often without tearing, it will be exciting to try :)

And I don't just see it as a training product, in the summer when you both sweat and bathe outdoors a lot, this is great!

We were in Röhnisch's shop, and a panel that spoke about training from different points of view was very inspiring! And above all, I became super hungry to shop for nice training clothes, I want to be all pink :)

I am a periodizer when it comes to training and right now I have not trained for a very long time, and they had a very relaxed attitude to it all so it was nice. I get more inspired by it than when people try to push one to be motivated. Any of you who feel the same way?

I was there too Caroline and Julia who also blogs, super nice :) Caroline joined me only from Uppsala and had to put up with me the whole trip haha, I bought a big take-away coffee that started to leak on the train!

After a lot of coffee in my lap, wet napkins and no garbage cans, I saw no other way out than to sweep the whole cup, which resulted in a sweaty (super hot coffee), caffeine and incredibly urinating Helena when we finally arrived in Stockholm haha! I-country problem of course :)

But it ended well anyway, luckily I did not wear white clothes only!

We brought home a nice goodie bag with, among other things, the work out products of course! What do you think about this idea?

Now I'll run away and pack today's orders, and then get started and play with my NEW CAMERA that came home today (wiiiiiiiie!).

And must also go through the emails that have become overcrowded during the day! I have several email addresses that are all connected to the same except my Byher email, and for some reason I can not check it in the mobile so I have missed it completely now on the go. And since I have a lot of new brands in the gi shop this spring, it is extremely much emailed back and forth. Suuuperkul!

We'll see if I have time to do a make-up for you today or not, but unfortunately I think it will be tight with time.

Hope you also had a wonderful day :) ♥

Curved eyeliner brush

Painting an even and fine eyeliner is a detail that many find difficult, and I often get questions about just that.

In my opinion, one of the easiest ways is to use a gel eyeliner or a cake eyeliner, and use a separate eyeliner brush. Then you have more control over how much you have on the brush, it feels stable to have in your hand, and a soft brush is easier to get even than, for example, a hard diploma.

And if you have a really good eyeliner brush, it's a thousand times easier than with a worn and bad one, you kind of can not even compare! And many also think that it is yet easier if you have an eyeliner brush with a curved shaft :)

The fact that the shaft is bent means that you can see more clearly where you are painting and also become a little more stable on the hand! I also like it because it is easier to access in the corner of the eye where it can otherwise be difficult to get a nice line with a straight brush.

Nanshy has an awesome curved eyeliner brush that I can recommend to you! Precise Bent Eyeliner Brush is thin and fine, and incredibly easy to paint with.

It costs SEK 99 and is available at Byher.se! :)

Miss Finland 1955

Good morning to you!

I'm up with the rooster and on my way to a press breakfast with LCC in Stockholm which starts at 8. I love press breakfasts! You get away from Gimo for a while but thanks to the fact that it is so early, it still does not take all day for me who has a long journey :)

In the meantime, I thought I would share a funny picture for you that my grandmother sent me yesterday. She thinks I'm a bit like her mother's (my great grandmother's) cousin who was Miss Finland in the 50's!

Now I'm going to run to the bus, hug you! ♥
