I do not know if you see a super big difference between the before and after pictures that I show in this post, or if it's just me who sees it clearly because I know how clearly it is visible in the makeup mirror.

But in the picture to the left, I think that my red-flaming skin (I am quite red in the middle of the face, especially around the nose) shines through the makeup a little too much. I had chosen to cover a little more there for a flawless result.

In the picture to the right, I am relatively happy with the coverage of the make-up, a little shading, highlighter and blush on it, so I'm ready later!

Do you know what the difference is? 10 minutes!

The only thing I have done is to apply a very thin layer of liquid foundation, and the left picture is taken immediately after application and the right one after ten minutes.

This is because we with sensitive skin flare up easily and turn red in the face when we touch the skin. Therefore, it is easy for us to over-make up and use much more basic make-up than we need, because you do not think that the redness goes away as soon as we stop putting on make-up.

I had not actually reflected on this myself until I started with skin care from Sanctum. Before, I was more or less red-flamed all the time, but it has subsided a lot since I started with natural skin care, now I have a much more even skin tone as long as I do not touch it.

And sometimes when I am unmade up and walk past a mirror, I can now wonder why I need so much basic makeup, I have hardly any pimples and the skin tone is relatively even. Then it struck me that the problem is of course that I have a lot more to cover when I touch the skin, and now I always take a break after applying the basic make-up to be able to decide if I need more coverage or not!

Close-up where you see the difference more clearly.

In other words, if you have the same problem as me, do not waste basic make-up and do not cover your fine skin unnecessarily, start putting on make-up 10 minutes earlier and take a break and your foundation will last twice as long and your basic make-up will be much more natural!

Gold tattoos have become so very popular lately, and I really understand why because it's so heavenly beautiful!

When Malin and I did face paintings at the Må Bra fair a few months ago, we actually sat with gold paint and painted patterns on everyone's hands and arms :) There were a lot of people who wanted it!

Gold tattoos are perfect decoration for us who love jewelry, but above all also for everyone who finds it difficult with jewelry and things that hang and throw. The tattoos are not in the way at all and you apply it just as easily as the rubbing tattoos as you always did when you were little :)

I really want to recommend gold tattoos a little extra now before New Year's Eve, sooo party good!

It looks like I have applied a huge twist, but it's just me who turns my arm a little weird, the tattoo is really straight :)

I have tested gold tattoos from the brand Lulu dk Tattoos which are available at Beauty.theyouway.se.

Lulu dh Tattoos has five different packages to choose from with different designs on the tattoos, even with silver in fact. Each package includes 2 sheets with different tattoos and all are super nice!

I have the design High Noon which contains mostly gold but also some silver, and I love them all!

I have only had mine since yesterday, but they will last for 4-6 days so it's wonderful! I have actually taken a long, hot shower and they are still as nice as before. I want mine all the time!

Prices are SEK 295-349 for a package with two sheets, and if you shop over SEK 250 at Beauty.theyouway.se, you have free shipping. In addition, they have fast deliveries, if you shop before 3 pm, you have usually received the products the day after!

Check out the other tattoo variants and shop here!

I love having the tattoos on my hands, so beautiful!

Hope you were inspired! :)

Remove gel nails at home

I stopped fixing my nails at the salon quite a long time ago, 3 months ago to be exact.

(In other words, my blog discount I had for you at that salon no longer applies, I still get questions about it sometimes, namely. But now you know!)

And since I did not remove the last nails at the salon, but had them as long as possible, I now thought I would show you what my nails look like today. For from yesterday because my nails are completely naked from gel and extension !!

I have painted them in my currently favorite color dark pink, but apart from the nail polish, they are completely neutral! :)

Long and nice huh ?? The nail polish is Paese Nail Polish in shade 105.

How did I do then, you're probably wondering now. In the beginning, I filed the nails a lot to both shorten them and get a nice shape. When I got more outgrown, I smoothed out the edge with gel polish from Depend, which I have left since before I started with salon nails.

And so I have been doing until yesterday when I got tired, and when I peeled a little at the edges of the Dependlacket which sat for a very long time, I got up an edge to pull in and then I could pull everything off in large pieces. And then the last of the salon gel came along too!

There were 10 whole and nice nails left, a little worn on the surface but still strong :) And after a little polishing and varnishing, they are now this nice!

Before I started with salon nails, I could never get long nails, they were so thin that they were almost transparent, very soft and sliced easily as well. I do not actually know why they are holding up so well right now, maybe because they have been resting under gel for a year, or because I have become 100% better at lubricating the cuticles, perhaps. Any of you who have a theory?

But you do not know, it may not be long at all until everyone has gone off and become short again;)

At least right now I enjoy that they are so heavenly beautiful!

Hug you and have a nice day! ♥

Light New Year's make-up step by step (Yellow make-up)

Many people do not like dark make-up, so now I thought I would share a light New Year's make-up that is also great for Christmas events!

And why I call this bright golden make-up New Year's make-up, it's because (as I say about all the glittery make-up I show) (oh what she's bothering you think now) (yes I kind of get anxiety and I do not point it out) so much more in reality!

When I leave the computer and look at myself in the mirror in this moment, I just think wow what my glitter eyes sparkle in the mirror image :) But when I take photos and have to show you, then the glitter is almost not visible at all. So keep that in mind :)

The other reason why this is a great New Year's make - up is because it is very well thought out, and if you look at my whole arms for the look, you think about it immediately. I have gold tattoos on both arms that match the golden in the make-up, and in addition, my nails and lips also match! Nice huh? :)

In other words, see in front of you this look with much more glitter than what is visible, nice gold tattoos along the arms, a little more fixed hair than what I have now and a really banging New Year's dress!

The lipstick is Golden Rose Velvet Matte Lipstick in shade no. 11.
The nails is Paese Nail Polish in shade 105.
The gold tattoos (will show them in more detail in a post tomorrow) is from Lulu dk and I have the design High Noon.

1. Yellowish eye shadow around the whole eye, fade the edges, Marsh Mineral Eyeshadow (Rich List)
2. White eye shadow in the corner of the eye, in the middle of the eyelid and under the brow, Marsh Mineral Eyeshadow (Vanilla Frosting)
3. Gold glitter dutted on the entire make-up (actually a glitter eyeliner that I have dabbed with an eyeshadow brush) True Gold Glitter Eyeliner.
4. Black eyeliner along the upper lash line, By Terry Ligne Blackstar.
False eyelashes, EcoTools Everyday Length Lashes.
Mascara on all lashes, Golden Rose Miracle Lash Mascara.

Hope you have a wonderful Thursday night! ♥
