Mila's new trousers

Min systerdotter Mila (4 år) har varit avundsjuk på mig hela sommaren för att hon tycker så mycket om mina mjukisbyxor. Nästan lite irriterad har hon varit på mig “but yyyy now you have those nice pants again…." Lol :)

These pajama pants are very old, and the only reason they were not thrown away is because they are so heavenly beautiful. When I relax with my mother, which has become a lot this summer, it is standard to go into the old closet and pick out these beautiful beans.

But it's so much fun to make other people happy and surprised, so after the 711th comment by Mila, I sat down at my nice red sewing machine, and sacrificed my most beautiful bras to this little lady:

Satisfied girl :) Now it was admittedly super quick to sew for them, but I can say that even if it had taken several hours, it would still have been worth her reaction!

Jag gick runt med byxorna ihopvikta i handen så att det inte syntes att dom var små. Och redan när hon såg dom i min hand, utan att jag sa nått, så sa hon besvärat “åhhsch, nice pants…“. Ni skulle sett hennes min när jag vecklade ut dom då och sa “they are for you now Mila!”:) She was so happy!

Och när hon hade satt på sig dom (och jag kunde pusta ut över att dom passa, sydde enbart med ögonmått) så satt hon och pussade sig på knäna och sa “I have such nice pants”Haha, gullungen ♥

Definitely worth it! Now I just hope she does not fall for more of my pants, this can be addictive;)

Makiash Nail Polish Remover

When I was at Makiash's press mingling at the beginning of the summer, I brought home a well-filled goodie bag, always just as nice! :)

There in lay among other things Makiash Nail Polish remover which is an acetone-free nail polish remover. The package is a jar with a sponge inside it, which you have to put your finger in and thus remove the nail polish directly in the jar.

You do not need to smear with cotton at all, you just put your finger down, rub the nail against the sponge, and then it's done. Lid on, no mess!

If it works? JAA! It is as effective and good as can be!

When you put your finger down, just pull the nail twice against the sponge and everything is gone. The varnish does not smudge on the skin and you just have to pick up your fingers again and you are completely done.

It smells quite strong, I'm used to Paese's remover which smells quite good, but it is not a persistent strong smell like when you use the classic Gripen products that kind of plague the whole room haha. So it's still okay :)

But do not do as I did - I thought that it was only the sponge that was moistened with liquid and that the jar did not contain much, so I put my finger down and held the jar to the side and thought to take a picture like that. But it resulted in a remover on the entire floor when it ran out with a terrible speed! :) Then read that the jar contains 75 ml, so it's quite a lot anyway.

The skin around the nails did not feel as dry as it can with many nail polish removers. So it also gets a plus for that.

Two thumbs up in other words, this one is great!

I have completely failed to test Beneco's lipsticks before, but I can say that if I had done so, they would have been in the webshop a long time ago, because they are really just as good :)

But in other words, now these three treats are finally available to buy HERE!

Using a lip pencil has several purposes, partly to extend the durability of your lipstick, but also to give the lips sharp and fine contours. Alone on the lip, it gives a matte feeling and a color that lasts a long time.

Beneco lipsticks are creamy, pigment-rich, comprehensive and durable. They are also suitable for people with dry lips, I have anything but moisturized lips after my lip tattoo that still flakes a little, but even now the result is super nice thanks to the consistency of the pencils is quite creamy.

The pens contain, among other things:
Meadowfoam oil - contains vitamins A and E and a unique fatty acid composition. Moisturizes and softens the skin. Quickly absorbed by the skin and protects against transepidermal water escape (TEWL - the skin becomes dry due to water disappearing from the body through the skin).
Jojoba oil - Emollient and moisture retaining.
Mango Seed Oil - Emollient and has a healing effect on dry, chapped lips.
Shea butter - Nourishes and moisturizes.
Bivax - Gives the pencils a creamy texture and is moisture-retaining.
Vitamin E and C - Vitamin E has protective properties for the skin and protects it against, among other things, free radicals. The properties of vitamin E are further enhanced with the help of vitamin C.

Beneco lipsticks are available in three shades:
Brown - A pink-brown tone reminiscent of the natural color of the lips. Perfect if you want a gentle tone that is not so protruding. Contains small shimmer grains
Pink - A very nice solid matt pink color.
Red - The perfect red shade, clear and nice.

Surely they are wonderfully beautiful? Stylish, caring, durable, comfortable on the lips and actually very cheap too - SEK 59 each :)

You will find them here ♥

Black blue eyeliner

My favorite eyeliner right now is the shade Black Blue Pixi Endless Silky Eye Pen, the color is so heavenly nice! Black Blue is dark and gives the same effect as a black eyeliner, but has a dark blue tone that enlivens a little extra.

I'm in love!

I have used it in today's makeup, which is super easy to do. Eyeshadow primer on the entire lid, on with golden eyeshadow, fade out the edges a bit with a soft brush, paint eyeliner with the eyeliner and soften the edges a bit with a narrow makeup brush. Clear! :)

Light eyeliner along the waterline, Benecos White natural eyeliner.
Blue-black eyeliner with wing, Pixi Endless Silky Eye endPen (Black Blue)
Black mascara on all lashes, Paese Adore 3D Lash Mascara.

IMG_0414_111My lips have flaked now but are not 100% healed yet. The edges are still a bit darker and in addition it will need refilling because it has not attached properly, but it is easy to do on the return visit later :)

The only thing I have on my lips in the picture is Paese Balm Lip Gloss in shade 621 which nourishes the lips with Meadowfoam oil (a flower), cocoa butter, castor oil, vitamin E and vitamin C.

IsaDora ProTect Face Primer Tinted

I have received a press release on IsaDora's news ProTect Face Primer Tinted which is now also available in a colored variant.

This face primer has thus been in the range before, but then without color. The new one has the same properties as the previous primer, but also gives a fresh tone to the skin.

The properties of a face primer vary - some focus on specific skin types, some have a neutralizing color and some are for extra large pores, etc. But the common denominator is that it is a good foundation for the rest of the face makeup, and gets your base more even. and durable.

IsaDoras primer är en sådan “allmän primer” som inte specificerar sig på ett problem så som t.ex. oljig hy, röda områden eller stora porer, utan den är basic och gör din foundation mer jämn och hållbar. Ett bra alternativ för dig som vill “finslipa” grundsminket men inte har direkt några specifika problem.

IMG_9211_111

This is how the product is described:
“ProTect Face Primer Tinted är en lätt färgad primer som förbereder din hud med en rejäl dos fukt och SPF 30. Kan användas ensam för att ge en fräsch ton till ansiktet eller som primer.

• Effective sun protection factor 30 - Broad Spectrum = SPF 30 protection against both UVA / UVB rays
• Unique collagen peptide (synthetically extracted) - reduces wrinkles, fills in and makes the skin firmer.
• Oil-free cream gel consistency - feels light and moisturizing on the skin.
• Perfect base - for a flawless, fresh make-up that lasts all day.
• For all skin types - even for oily and combination skin as it is oil-free. ”

IMG_9228_111

The primer looks like a foundation, but gives no coverage but just a tone to the skin, a tone that in my case is quite a lot darker than the skin.

I think:
♥ A plus for spf 30, always good!
♥ An easy way to get a warmer skin tone, and for us who are light, it is a natural and easy way to look a little more tan, but do not forget to wear it on the neck and décolleté also if you use it to become a little browner.
– It is quite tough in texture, I like silky primers that glide on easily or that feel like a wonderful day cream. This one dried a bit when applied. It was smooth anyway but not great to lubricate yourself with if I say so.
– I think it is a fairly small target group who will like that it gives the skin a little color, as it is only available in one shade. On me it became too dark I think.

The primer costs SEK 159 and contains 30 ml.

jjj

Here you see that the skin tone became quite darker after the primer.

Summary - I got no wow effect, you who like the principle of getting a little color in the face you will like this, but for those of you who are more looking for the properties, you can find better primers for that money.

Hugs are ♥
