I have been using Manukahonung MGO 600+ for a while to relieve my sore throat and try to get rid of my recurring sore throat / throat infections. So...
I have tested Maybelline Master Precise Curvy Liner For the first time in this make-up, I have received a home sample of this special eyeliner form and now thought of giving you a first-impression review! :)
The sleeve itself is flat and wide to easily hold it in your hand when painting, smart!
Excerpt:
Easy application with precise precision
Pigmentrik
Gives a smooth line.
Easy to hold in the hand
As you can see, it does not have a regular eyeliner shape, but is more shaped like a drop type. This is to be able to easily make both wide and thin lines.
Keeps what it promises - It keeps everything it promises, it is pigment-rich and becomes carbon black and very intense, it is easy to hold and actually very easy to paint with, I think. It looks quite difficult, I think, but the only thing that did not go as on a rail was to get a narrow tip on the eyeliner wing. But otherwise it gives a carbon black and even result.
Poor durability - However, one of the things it does not promise in the product description is long durability and it is unfortunately in that detail that it becomes a deal breaker for me. I have very oily eyelids and it took maybe 30 minutes before it started to smudge. It is not rub-proof and does not withstand the slightest splash of water.
Affordable -HERE so it costs only 89 SEK and has free shipping.
Summary - For you who want a cheap eyeliner that gives an even and carbon black result and who still never makes eyeliner wing, and has eyes with large eyelids so that the eyeliner does not touch the rest of the eye so much that it can start to smudge and who does not have to have a water-resistant eyeliner, for you this is a cape! Because it looks incredibly nice and is very nice to use, and cheap. But, for most of us, it is absolutely nothing I can recommend unfortunately.
“Hej Helena!
I use Magnetic Lash Mascara and am so happy with it! Mainly because it lasts so well, even for rain and water splashes (perfect for mothers of small children) but is so easy to wash off anyway. And the lashes will be so nice! I have not used the fibers that much, however. I usually do not have as much eye makeup but only mascara, but on the weekends I would like to have a more festive makeup anyway but still do not want eye shadows or a lot of eyeliner. Thinking I can run on the fibers for extra long lashes and a lipstick only :)
My thoughts / wishes are thus: 1. You have previously posted how long lashes you get with the fibers, but you have shown with completely unmade-up lashes and then after mascara + fibers. I would also like to see what the lashes look like with mascara but before the fibers. And you have also written that you can build on with more layers of fiber, can you show that too? 2. Give more tips on how to get long eyelashes, both how to care for them but above all how to think when you put on make-up.
Will be superduper-grateful if you can throw up a post about this with pictures! ”
First of all - super fun that so many are happy with the mascara! I hear this regularly from customers :) I also recommend it to people who do not want to use the fibers, because the mascara itself is really good and I see the fibers more as a bonus that comes with the page.
I have now put together a few more pictures that I was going to show you today, in connection with even more make-up tips!
How to get longer eyelashes:
1. Care for eyelashes - Use a mild makeup remover, try not to rub into the eyes (not when washing off the makeup and not in the morning either) and be careful when removing the mascara. Feel free to use a conditioner / wrap for the eyelashes to care for them extra, I use Refectocil Long Lash Gel* every night as a wrap. Mascara, lash curlers, makeup removal, water, lash color, etc. can all be a little tiring for the lashes. So Long Lash Gel no longer makes them in itself but cares for them so that they look better and longer thanks to the fact that they do not get worn or dry.
2. Eyelash Serum - If you are prone to getting worn lashes or are very harsh with them, you can get quite a lot longer lashes by just caring for them. But to make them actually grow, you can use an eyelash serum! Brush on the lash line (on the skin) every night and after 6-8 weeks you have significantly longer lashes. The one I use is also from the brand Refectocil and is tested and approved, Refectocil Beauty Lash* is called the serum and we have many returning customers who get really good results. A customer who got so long that she would almost have to cut them, completely crazy!
3. The right choice of mascara - Feel free to buy a mascara that is mild in the formula, if you have frizzy lashes or stress them a lot, it is really worth paying a little extra. Cheap mascaras can sometimes be a little dehydrating for the lashes. (note everyone pulls over a comb now, cheap does not have to mean bad).
This is how you get the eyelashes see further out:
1. Skip the wide eyeliner - A wide black eyeliner makes the black lashes blend into the eyeliner, and you only see the tips of the eyelashes, which gives the illusion that they are a little shorter than they are. However, a narrow eyeliner or just lashliner (dark marking in the scalp of the lashes) is only good for emphasizing the lashes, then they look a little fuller.
In this picture you see the perfect if you want the lashes to look as long as possible I think, here I have made a lashliner right in the scalp of the lashes which makes the lashes will look fuller, but you will also see the full length of the fringe clearly when the mascara comes on late.
2. Bend the lashes from the root - If you have straight lashes and bend them carelessly, e.g. from the middle and upwards, you only get the length of half the fringe. Make sure to bend as close to the root as possible so you get all the lashes up.
3. Apply the mascara upwards - In most cases, I usually recommend brushing the lashes like a fan, the inner lashes inwards, the middle lashes straight up and the outer lashes outwards. Then they become separated and fine. But if you brush the outer lashes outwards, they can look a little shorter when you look straight ahead, so for as long lashes as possible, you can then try to brush all the lashes as straight up as possible. Do not forget to work only from the root with the mascara so that you get the lashes up properly.
4. Bright eye shadows - Even if you are not going to do an eyeshadow make-up, it is effective to lighten up a little on the eyelid with a luster highlighter, because the greater the contrast it is against the black lashes with light / dark, the more they are emphasized. Extra important for people who have a little darker skin tone, then luster on the eyelid can do the trick :)
Magnetic lash fiber mascara - And what the post would really be about, the popular mascara from Magnetic Lash* which has the fibers in a sleeve on the side! You can easily vary how much fiber you want, and where on the lashes you want them, so smart!
The formula gives a really lasting result, as the wax formulation makes the mascara last longer but is at the same time easier to wash off than many other mascaras. It also becomes waterproof and can withstand both rain and tears. The mascara nourishes and strengthens the lashes thanks to nourishing hyaluronic acid and vitamin E.
Here you see with only mascara on the model, and with mascara + fibers on the model.
The mascara has an hourglass-shaped brush that both reaches the smallest lashes, and separates them nicely, loves it! And in the small sleeve that comes with it, there is a small narrow brush with fibers that you apply after the mascara to build up volume and above all length.
Apply mascara on one eye, I usually do one at a time so that the cream does not have time to dry on one eye while I do the other. The fibers attach more when the mascara is still creamy.
Apply the fibers from the middle of the lashes up to the tops, or as you prefer (you can only put in the outer edges or only the tops if you want)
Finish with another layer of mascara and build up the desired length
You can apply more layers if you want more effect. I find that it is better to add a little at a time than lots of fiber directly.
As I said, you can vary how much fiber you want to use. Here you see the lashes with first only mascara, then with a little fiber and the second layer of mascara, and to the right I have added even more fiber and mascara.
När jag lägger fler lager så jobbar jag mest i topparna på fransarna, för lägger man mycket mascara och fibrer lager på lager på hela fransarna så blir dom till slut lite rufsiga och lätt “för mycket”.
My eyelash curler has broken (waah!) So I have not even bent them in these pictures, and yet they are so visible even when I look straight ahead :)
Fint va? :)
Summary - Do not be harsh on the lashes, feel free to care for them with moisturizing Long lash gel overnight, use eyelash serum if you want to make them grow, skip wide eyeliner, brush the lashes straight up when applying mascara and use fibers in the tops for as much length as possible .
By the way, I have not used The Beauty Lash serum* since last spring and feel that I really have to start again, it will be such a big difference! Because now my lashes have gone down to normal again after so many months, but now I am starting to get back to routines after all the chaos so it's time I think :)
Hope you who asked got answers to all your thoughts, and that you others were also inspired ♥
Surely most of you have not missed L'Oréal Paris' novelty Pure Clay Mask and their multimasking commercials? :) I was at their press event a few weeks ago and got press samples on the face masks with me home, and have since put them to the test!
Multimasking is a trend that has become really big in recent times, and means that you have different types of face masks in different parts of the face. For most of us, we have quite different skin in different areas, e.g. oily T-zone and at the same time dry cheeks etc. Then you can e.g. have a face mask for oily skin one part of the face and one for dry skin in another part of the face.
I love the concept of multimasking and think that it is not only smart and good for the skin, but also makes the routine with face mask even more fun :)
L'Oréal Paris has released three different face masks, all three of which are clay-based, I who love clay! So everyone has the same clay base: Ghassoul - Absorbs impurities and sebum from the pores Montmorillonite - Cleanses and balances the skin Kaolin - Absorbs oil and is good even for sensitive skin types.
What separates the face masks are the remaining ingredients, such as charcoal, algae and eucalyptus.
This is how I apply the different masks for my skin :)
Forehead and nose - Here I am most oily, and also think that the oiliness bothers me the most here as the nose shines most in the whole face and the forehead and hairline make the hair oilier faster as well.
Cheeks and chin - Here I have mostly unclean and visible pores.
Jawbone - Here the skin is at least oily and oily, but still has a tendency to pimples and feels more dull and lifeless. I could have the same face mask as on my cheeks / chin, but since I have three different ones now, I took the opportunity to do a little more exfoliation here.
Packaging
The face masks come in jars, which means that you need some type of spatula for application as you should never put your fingers in the jar. There is nothing that bothers me personally though, I usually use a regular spoon :)
Award
SEK 129 for 50 ml, I think it's affordable!
Formula
The face masks are very thick, so a thin layer goes a long way. The texture is very creamy and feels nice on the skin.
Use & duration of action
Cleanse the skin and dry it
Applicera ansiktsmaskerna olika i ansiktet beroende på hur just din hy är, det finns inget “rätt sätt” att kombinera dom.
Let work for 10 minutes
Rinse thoroughly with water
You feel that the mask is quite active, it feels cool and it irritates the skin a bit. The effect time is 10 minutes, and then the clay has basically dried completely so it is not a big idea to have it sit longer even if you want it. So it's fast.
Recommended use is about 3 times a week.
Results
The skin feels very clean afterwards! I looks no visible difference on the skin but feels that it becomes cleaner and feels very fresh. It is not a soft moisturizing mask that you can chill around with for several hours and then become soft as a baby afterwards, but it is quite active on the skin and afterwards I have to be quick to lubricate myself because the skin feels very dry.
I have tested both multimask and tested them separately, and personally I would probably manage with only purifying mask all over my face and skip the rest. For Exfoliating mask that peels the skin does not really feel necessary on my skin, maybe would like to have it once a month just and all over the face, and purify mask and glow mask feels quite similar I think, but just debilitating and relaxing my skin so really I would personally just run with the green Purify mask.
L'Oréal Paris Exfoliating Mask
Contains extracts from red algae and volcanic stone that exfoliate the skin. It removes dead skin cells and gives your skin more radiance. Also contains grains that manually scrub the skin.
L'Oréal Paris Glow Mask
Contains carbon that is incredibly absorbent and removes dirt and impurities from the pores, which gives the skin a clean and fresh glow!
L'Oréal Paris Purify Mask
Contains eucalyptus which makes the skin relax and dissolves impurities in the pores, has an astringent effect and makes the skin more dull. Especially good for oily skin with large pores.
This is what the mask looks like after about 10 minutes, then it has solidified and you can barely talk :)
Summary - In summary, all masks get the thumbs up from me! I personally do not like face masks that solidify so much, I want to throw on a mask and be able to sit and cuddle with it in front of a movie with a cup of tea or kind of clean at the same time. These are probably not for people who need moisture the most and who are very sensitive in the skin, but for a more cleansing effect, they are actually great, not the best I have tested but still very good and at the same time affordable!
I only miss a moisture bomb in this mutimask collection, it would probably have been the icing on the cake for most people :)
Today I was going to show you a make-up made with the eyeshadow Microshadow in the shade Trust from Make Up Store, which I got a press sample of this spring.
That color is so incredibly nice I think! A little gray-purple, shimmery and light, it looks super nice all alone on the eyelid even without other eye shadows. Perfect for everyday!
However, I must add that the quality of the eye shadow is not topnotch in my opinion, very powdery in consistency and not particularly rich in pigment. So it is incredibly easy to make a soft fade with which in itself is a plus, but at the same time it was difficult to get attached to the eyelid properly despite eye shadow primer. And I usually do not even have that problem with cheap budget shadows as long as I have a good primer.
But here comes at least a make-up done with this eye shadow!
As I said, the eye shadow does not get a thumbs up from me, but still thinks it is very nice :)
Do you know what to do now? Tattoo your lips again !! Wiie! I am a test person this time too (Ida will get to test my tattoo!) But I still hope that my lips will be completely clear this time so that my enlargement will be completely clear. It has stuck a bit badly when I have been a test person before when Annika and Amir took the opportunity to test other machines / colors that you can not test on a regular customer. And it has dragged on for a while as we just did not take the time to make the last return visit haha.
But now finally! Will certainly post movies on Instagram Stories (Imakeyousmile.se my name is on instagram), where you can follow me during the day :)
As you know, we are more makeup artists at the salon now who work with the products in our store and webshop, so enormously fun! We are four in total now and I have taught them everything I know about which products work super well together and tips and tricks around the different brands.
Therefore, I now thought to show two make-ups that Zahra has done with products that we sell in the store :)
The first make-up is a party make-up where she did not take the pre-picture with my camera but with a mobile camera, therefore the pictures are of different quality. And the other is a party makeup with a light base and marked, intense eyes.
Hope you are inspired!
In the pre-picture you see that she already has a tattooed eyeliner, nice huh? :)
If you want to book an appointment for a make-up consultation or party makeup, you will find both prices and can book online creativemakeup.se! You can also call and book on 018 10 50 13.
Or book a nice lashliner, which the first make-up has tattooed;) So nice!
