Became a late post today, busy woman here;)

Now there are two more news in the webshop! It comes a little on and on as you notice.

I love the brand gloMinerals! Some products feel a bit "unnecessary" though, as the prices are quite high and similar products are available for a much smaller penny.

BUT there are some gold nuggets that are really worth spending money on !! I'm mainly talking about their solid powder foundation that I can not do without, but also about certain parts and shades from the rest of the range.

So I have chosen my favorites from gloMinerals, which I will sell on iMys.se!! :)
(and a little more stuff coming soon)

The two newcomers today are eye shadows in shades that for me, and many others, are a must in the make-up bag:
A black eye shadow
A dark brown eye shadow

gloMinerals Eyeshadow (Sable)

A pigment-rich carbon black eye shadow is really an investment if you like make-up!

gloMinerals Eyeshadow (Kona)

Few dark brown eye shadows get as dark after application as this!

The eye shadows cost SEK 215 / pc, which is cheaper than most places!

New in the webshop - Annika's favorite shade

More than two years ago, makeup artist Annika Söderlund told me about her favorite shade.

The shimmery, light eye shadow that quickly became my favorite too!

The eye shadow works for all make-up. Either as a highlighter in the corner of the eye / under the eyebrows, or as part of the make-up itself.

NOW it is also available for purchase in my webshop, also in a new lot smarter jar with sieves! :)

Sifter is such a strainer, so that you get just the right amount of eye shadow at a time.

Love, love, love!

The idea was that even more products would be published today. Meeeen I was not as technical as I thought, but have to wait until Miska comes home (in a few days) so I can get help with some things.

Hugs are !! :)

My makeup brushes

I have received super many questions about which makeup brushes I use, so now comes a post about it! :)

In addition, I will be better at showing the makeup brushes when I do step-by-step make-up. You can peek Modern Mom now, you will see which brushes I have used for today's smokey eyes! :)

To begin with, I can say that I use as many different brushes as I like, I have so many.

You should wash your brushes 1-2 times a week, but instead of doing that I simply take a new brush with about the same shape!

Then I wash them all at once, and then it looks like this! :) Large towel on the floor to be able to dry everyone.

So instead of talking about specific brushes and brands, I thought I would explain which ones sort of makeup brushes I use for different areas.

And for the sake of simplicity, I have only photographed brushes from this makeup brush set with 24 makeup brushes :)

Except for the Kabuki brush which is from Creative Make Up, and which unfortunately is not sold there anymore.

My two favorite brushes that I use for the eyelid.

I use it a little less when I apply the eye shadow.
The slightly larger one, I blur the edges with!

This brush is like the two in the upper picture, but a little smaller and harder.
Used mostly at the bottom of the lower lash line and in the corner of the eye, where I want a smoky effect on a small area.

This is larger than the brushes in the top picture.
I do not use it very much, but most people think it is nicer with a larger and softer brush when you blur the edges. Then this is perfect!

A narrow eyeliner brush for liquid eyeliner, absolutely perfect I think!

An oblique brush.
Used for eyebrows, and if I want a sharp line when I apply eye shadow.

A fairly flat and hard brush for the lips.

This one also has a kind of cork, so that you do not smear lipstick in the make-up bag :)

Kabuki brush to apply powder foundation.

Small, compact and soft.

Is looking for a good kabuki brush for the webshop :)

A foundation brush, flat and compact.
I use this for my Foundation, and dab in places that need more coverage (for example pimples)

Fluffy powder brushes.
I use this for powder and sun powder, gives an even result!

Inclined blush brush.
Used to apply blush on the cheeks.

It is important to take care of yourself

Beauty comes from within as they say, and it really is. It is very important to feel good!

And by feeling good, I do not mean exercise, eat healthy and buy expensive skin creams.

When I feel good, I am simply very happy with life!

As I wrote yesterday, I really felt I needed to sleep. I went to bed without sounding the alarm, and now I woke up after sleeping constantly for 12 hours.

Now I'll turn on the coffee maker, jump in the shower, and then it's a cozy breakfast with hair wrap and face mask!

Then I will feel like a queen, and be prettier than ever! ;)

Update: I felt like a queen, until a huge spider came crawling. I do not want to stay häääääär !!!!!
