Oily skin (Products for oily skin)

Tilda sa…
hi, I'm a girl who has problems with pimples and oily skin, I put on make-up at 7 and at 8 the make-up is gone at school. goes and looks at me in the mirror and everything looks cakey and cracked, and the pimples shine through because the make-up has gone away.

Also read my newer post: Oily skin: Best Products - Oily & greasy complexion

There are many different tricks to try, it is important to find what suits you best :)

Face wash:
Try not to wash your face with water, water dries out and can then give even more oily skin!

If you still feel that you would rather wash with water, then I can recommend Lactacyd soap that is available at regular grocery stores! It restores the PH balance and I notice a big difference in how oily the skin becomes.

I use eye makeup remover from H&M, a jar with oily pads for SEK 39.
I only use this for the eyes!

Then I use L'Oréals makeup remover (on a cotton ball) to the rest of the face.

I finish with an oil-free face lotion from Neutrogena!

Makeup:
Then it is good basic make-up that applies. You can prioritize here if you have some money, the basic make-up is the most important thing for the whole make-up to look good. Then you can choose cheap eye shadows etc :)

The Foundation that works best for oily skin is Pür Minerals Liquid Foundation.
Gives a natural and opaque result, which is kept matte.

But do you really want coverage on their pimples so I recommend GloMinerals Pressed Base Foundation! Have not tested any Foundation that covers so well!

The ultimate is to have Pür Minerals all over your face first, and then cover extra on the pimples with gloMinerals.

To then always have one powder on hand during the day is to be recommended! GloMinerals Perfecting Powder is what I like most, but it's on the same page (creativemakeup.se) one budget pillows which is also transparent and good! The discount code works on the entire purchase

Hope you are happy with the answer, and good luck with everything!

My beloved makeup mirror with lamps

I often get questions about my make-up mirror with lamps, so I thought I would write a little more carefully about it! :)

Chloe & Naomi makeup mirror with lighting

Chloe is the standard size and Naomi is big. Enter into Sminkspegel.se to see the entire range. They are available in several colors, patterns and sizes. Even artificial leather!

The lamps give a superb light without shadows! The very best thing is to turn off all the lights around the room.

The importance of putting on make-up in good light

Everyone has probably been involved in putting on make-up in one candle, then looking in a mirror in another candle .. Then you see flaws in the make-up that you did not see at all before! This is avoided if you put on make-up in a light without shadows.

I do not realize how much of a difference it makes until you sleep elsewhere and have to put on make-up, e.g. in a hotel bathroom. It is also difficult for me as a makeup artist to put on make-up then.

In addition, this make-up mirror with lamps is optimal if you are going to take photos, I as a make-up blogger always get equally beautiful make-up pictures, love !!

Or if you just want a nice profile picture for Facebook;)

Here is a larger makeup mirror with lamps - Naomi salon mirror. It is flashes that shine in the picture, not lamps, you do not need other lamps than those on the mirror.

The lamps also have dimmers, so you can regulate how bright you want it. Super good I think! If you are tired in the morning and turn on the lights at full speed, you will be almost blind. But after 1 minute, I always have the highest illumination.

Large makeup mirror & Small makeup mirror

Here is the standard size Chloe:

Here is the large salon mirror Naomi:

You can choose whether you want the mirror standing or hanging on the wall.

Definitely worth the money if you like makeup / beauty. If I had not received this make-up mirror as a Christmas present, I would have bought it myself :)

Cheap makeup mirror

I also have this (adlink) makeup mirror with lighting from Brow Game.

Recommended if you want a cheaper make-up mirror and / or a make-up mirror that takes up little space.

The make-up mirror with lamps from sminkspegel.se costs between SEK 2,300-5,400 depending on size, etc. But the smaller one from Brow Game costs SEK 695, so it is a better alternative if you are not in need of a professional mirror.

It's not quite as effective, but enough to remove shadows! :) Perfect for a small make-up area or if you want to be able to pick it back and forth without problems.

Available for purchase here (adlink)

Just shout out if you have any questions!

Pink eye shadow deepest on the eyelid.
Purple eye shadow in the middle of the eyelid.
Black eye shadow at the end of the eyelid, along the globe line, along the upper lash line, and the lower lash line.
Lighter pink eye shadow over the globe line.
Pink eye shadow on the black innermost along the lower lash line.

Permanent makeup or cosmetic tattoo as it is also called, is makeup that is tattooed on the face. Scary is the first thought, but really smart in my opinion!

Unlike a regular tattoo, this does not sit so deep, but fades with time (different time depending on tattoo and color) but usually lasts 1-5 years.

Permanent makeup is a smart idea on many levels. Both for young and old. Here are some examples!

Feel good-looking even without make-up (training, on the beach, etc.)
Sparse eyebrows, or if you want to change the shape.
Visual impairment and therefore has difficulty putting on make-up.
Goes faster in the morning.
Scars on the scalp or eyebrows.
It is difficult to apply make-up technically, for example get the eyebrows the same or have over the years find it difficult to apply a nice eyeliner.
Blurred lip contours.
If you suffer from allergies / watery eyes.

I have my eyebrows tattooed, because I naturally have very sparse eyebrows and can not pick the shape I want without it looking strangely unmade. I therefore chose to pick them that way anyway, because I'm basically always made up in any case. I also wanted them a little higher!

But now I love my eyebrows, no longer feel naked without makeup :)

I'm also going to tattoo lashliner (a black fringe marking on the upper lash line), a light eyeliner along the lash line to open up the eye, and maybe the lips too! Perfect before the summer :)

Here are my eyebrows before and after.
In the afterimage, they are completely new, and very dark. They got a nice natural blonde color after about a week!

Here are a few more pictures from Creative Make Up, where I got a tattoo with make up artist Annika Söderlund!

Lashliner up and down.

Scar coverage.

The difference between these lips then !!

It is very common to have sparse eyebrows with age. Then this is perfect!
The shape of the eyebrow can also open up the whole gaze. For example, if you have sagging eyelids, you can suddenly look 10 years younger with a pair of new eyebrows :)

Black lash marking + light along the waterline, and eyebrows.

Here is Annika's own eye, completely unmade, just tattoos! No mascara either, fringe industry Revitalash + brow color.

Blir ni sugna? :)

Feel free to ask questions! It would be a very long post if I printed out all the information. Or read more carefully Creativemakeup.se :)

Miska is at a friend's house, and my evening looks like this:

Dinner:
Cheese sandwiches. Toblerone for dessert.

Employment:
Schulman Show - laughs so that the tears flow and can not breathe. All in my loneliness. A real Helena laugh!

Before I post the pictures today's makeup, so I just have to show you who missed these wonderfully funny clips, what a wonderful evening humor I have!

Original video - Goats screaming like humans.

Which results in the following clips:

No, now I'll take out the camera so you can get some makeup inspiration! :)

Talk to you soon!
