Night tampons

Jul 8, 2014

Since my biggest target group is girls, I think that a small tampon post can not hurt this beauty blog :) And this post is actually indirectly about beauty - everyone deserves a good night's beauty sleep!

This is because ob has launched Sweden's first night tampon, and when I started googling a bit about this and ended up on various forums, I realized that there are very many myths around this topic, myths that many still believe in today!

So we can not hold on to girls, so those myths I thought I would break through now :)

"Tampon at night is unhygienic" - There is nothing that says that it would be more unhygienic or bad in any way to sleep with a tampon, you change before you go to bed and immediately when you wake up there are no problems. Then it's a matter of taste what you think feels more hygienic and not.

"The tampon leaks at night" - Many can do it, but o.b's new ones have "wings" that adapt to your movements when you sleep, and absorb any liquid that a regular tampon would have missed.

"You get TSS if you have a tampon for too long" - Not true either, TSS is a disease that was connected to tampons due to some cases of disease in the United States in the 80s. The reason was then a tampon of a special material that is not used in tampons today. You can still get the disease today due to a bacterium that produces toxins (poisons), but the most common reason is infected wounds. There are many and extensive studies that show that normal use of tampons does not affect the risk of TSS.

(All info I got from ob)

So you do not have to step up in the middle of the night to change the tampon either for hygienic or accident prevention reasons, or to avoid diseases!

This is what o.b's night tampon looks like, the different wings are there to adapt to your movements when you sleep, they absorb the liquid and transport it to the core of the tampon. The tampon feels just like a regular tampon.

Available in normal and super sizes.

So now all tampon lovers do not have to miss the beauty sleep one week a month! Woop woop! : D

You get today's make-up very late today, but better late than never;)

Today's look is inspired by my nails that I have pimped with nail foil from Nailz.se!

Nice huh? :)

Yellow eye shadow innermost on the eyelid and in the corner of the eye.
White eye shadow on the yellow in the corner of the eye to brighten the gaze more.
Orange-yellow eye shadow in the middle of the eyelid.
Green eye shadow innermost on the lower lash line and outermost on the eyelid.
Black eye shadow at the end of the eyelid and the lower lash line, as well as along the globe line.

Pimped my braid also by making a loop into a finished braid already before, so there is a braid in the braid, nice huh? :)

I still have not done today's make-up, my sister who lives in Finland is here and visits, and then it's hard to tear yourself away when working from home;)

But Miska is still not home so I can blog all night instead, so do not worry, I will catch up until tomorrow!

A little blog benefit, however, I have had time, when we had coffee out in the sun, I fixed my nails with nail foil from Nailz.se, oh my god so nice nails I have now, I love them!

Nail foil is super easy to use, these are stickers that you just apply to the nail and file off the tops with a nail file and then you have super nice nails. Available in lots of different patterns. These from Nailz.se also last super well, I usually just seal all edges with transparent nail polish (not really needed) and then they last for several days :)

This pattern is a bit transparent so most of the yellow are my nails underneath. This particular pattern is a news that will come up on Nailz.se during the week, but there are already lots to choose from :)

All nail foil only costs between SEK 19 and 29!

Do not you become jealous? :)

I have to tell you about a suuuperfint summery nail polish!

The color Pure Elegance from China Glaze is light pink with gold / peach / mother-of-pearl shimmer and gets a super nice glow in the sun :) The right shade is difficult to capture in the picture but it is kind of bubble gum pink while the color in the shimmer makes it look more glamorous than cute out.

If you paint a thin layer, it is not particularly opaque, I can therefore imagine that it is super nice over other nail polishes as well. But if you paint another layer, it is opaque and really nice!

The varnish is easy to paint and has a thin consistency, it does not dry quickly but also not slowly.

This particular shade was difficult to find on any Swedish website, however parfymonline.se have it for SEK 65!

It has more mother-of-pearl luster than shimmer as it looks in the picture, however, it really does not want to get stuck on cards, but if you like the shade itself, I say buy, you will not regret it because it is so nice :)

Hug!

Super nice huh? :) She has the shade 905 in the picture!
