Anastasia Dip Brow Pomade (Review)

-

May 17, 2014

Now finally I also tried the popular "eyebrow cream" Dip Brow Pomade from Anastasia Beverly Hills.

If I like it? I love it!

It is so easy to work with, it goes so fast, the result is natural and beautiful, it lasts extremely well all day, is rub-proof and waterproof, and the color Blonde is perfect for my hair color :)

Costs ISK 245 HERE, the jar is quite large so it will probably last a very long time!

Available in five different colors, and as I said, I have the shade Blonde.

Here's what I do when I apply:
1. Mark the underside of the eyebrow with a long line from beginning to end.
2. Fill in the outer edge of the brow quite sharply, and form a nice highest point.
3. Fill in the inner edge of the brow and tone out the edges so that you get a more natural look.

What do you think ? :)

In other words, I say two thumbs up, I will use this every day from now on!

I can understand that it is easy for salon nails to fall off when you have had them for several weeks, they get longer and longer and also a little worn. I have broken a couple of pieces since October when I started extending for the first time.

But that they can come off completely from my real nail, and that the nail underneath is 100 % whole, I did not know it could happen!

But rather it is that they are broken off of course :)

Holds my colorful nail that came loose for a whole piece.

My colorful stripes on the nails are really bright neon colors, but they look heavenly washed out in the picture, very strange!

A little cool though to see his real nail so damn long, I would never have been able to get such long nails without the reinforcement over!

When you have nail polish over, you do not think that the nails are so long, as when you really see that the top that protrudes outside the nail is as long as the part that is on the finger itself. This length would probably not have been so nice for a French manicure.

On Monday, however, I have time to fix my nails Nails Uppsala again! :) Immediately after a full day of filming, will be completely over.

It will probably be something colorful then too, I enjoy it so much and it's so nice when you soon get a little tan too! Thinking of yellow, orange or blue, or ombre, or green, and maybe a little glitter. Hmm… Coral is nice too .. Haha, it really is not easy to decide and it can end anyway :)

Hug!

Shiseido Smoothing Eyeliner Pencil (Review)

Reviews & Product Tips

The day before yesterday, I really sat down Shiseido Smoothing Eyeliner Pencil on trial. I smoked it around the whole eye and along the waterline, and had that make-up from morning to night for a whole day when I ran around Uppsala!

I have read many good reviews about this, and the biggest reason why people like it is because of its durability, so I had very high expectations.

Here is my review :)

It costs ISK 209 HERE!

First of all, it is very easy to work with, it has a slightly creamy texture that glides on the lash line easily like a plate! It is both easy to get carbon black and sharp, and nicely toned.

As I said, it is a little creamy when applied, but dries quickly and then it is almost completely rub-proof!

The creamy formula also makes it very good for the waterline, because even though it is not waterproof, it actually lasts a very long time. A dry eyeliner absorbs the moisture from the eyes directly and then releases quite soon, while a creamy product does not have the same absorption capacity and therefore withstands moisture in a different way.

When I checked in the mirror in the evening after having had the eyeliner for more than 12 hours, the eyeliner had been slightly rubbed in the outer corner of the eye. It's not so strange as it was windy outside and my eyes are very sensitive to wind, and as I said, the eyeliner is not waterproof. Also, was a bit away from the inner and outer edges of the waterline, but there was quite a bit left in the middle. By the way, it was just like when I left home!

The perfect result would of course have been if the eyeliner did not move out of the stain, a pity that it is not waterproof I think, but it is still one of the best eyeliner pens I have tested! :)

On top of the pen there is a rubber thing that you use to fade the lines on the eyeliner, perfect if you want a more smoky look!

A non-sharpened cape, did not find the pencil sharpener before I would take pictures hehe.

The make-up I was talking about.

A tip when you paint the waterline is to first paint a layer with the pen, then continue to put on make-up as usual. And then when you are done with everything, you can finish with another layer of the eyeliner. Then the first layer has been fixed a bit and the second layer will attach even better and the result will be more durable!

Hugs from me :*

Marked cheekbones

Marking the cheekbones is so incredibly nice, and now for the summer when you start to get a little color, it also becomes easier because it can be a little difficult to get it natural on a very pale skin.

My best tip for sharp cheekbones is to use a slanted blush brush!

This is my favorite! It comes from the Emily brush set with seven brushes for both basic make-up and eye make-up, available on iMys.se for SEK 199 (it is SALE now, they actually cost SEK 299!) The colors that are left are lila and turquoise.

The brush is big enough and fluffy enough to get the perfect cheekbone shade!

Before and after.

I exaggerated a bit so that it would be visible in the picture, but it seemed quite a lot anyway so now it got a little too dark in the pictures too :) But better that, you can see how I do!

1. What I do is first angle the brush to the side, and apply the dark shadow quite sharply just below the cheekbone. I always pluck with my mouth so that the cheekbone becomes clearer - then it is easier to apply the shadow in the deep part below.

2. Then I hold the makeup brush straight and blur upwards a little. At the bottom of the dark shade it can be quite sharp but up towards the cheeks it should be a nice fade if it is to look like a natural shade.

Hope this post was helpful! :)
