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...
This is what I celebrate Byher.se's Facebook page by making a favorite in replay of the much-appreciated 40-palette competition! :)
Enter into Facebook page to compete - what you need to do is tag a friend on the status of the competition. And the prize is a palette for both you and your friend!
The competition runs until 15.00 on Monday and shortly afterwards the winner will be published here on Facebook (so do not forget to like the page so you do not miss). The palettes are sent to your different addresses so you do not have to live close to each other, but the competition applies within Sweden. You can compete several times, if you tag different friends.
And you who do not have the patience to wait can buy the palette already now for only SEK 129! And lots of other products that are really price reduced! :)
I did not have time to show my Friday make-up yesterday, because I am the housekeeper and cat sitter at my mother's, which means that everything takes a little extra time! House and cat guard does not sound as time consuming as it is, we have to burn wood to get heat in the house and right now I am trying to write while Viktoria (one of four cats) is lying in her arms and cuddling against my hand all the time haha . So cozy!
Anyway :) Yesterday's make-up is the result of a happy and inspired Helena! And I can say this - do you think it's nice in the picture, you would have seen it in real life!
It was so nicely slightly glittery at the same time as it was still completely matte on the copper-brown shade over the globe line, which gave it such a nicely well-worked depth and it was so lovely to look at when all the colors came out so nicely under the glitter. Almost so I do not want to post it because I get so sad about how much nicer it really was.
I usually actually feel quite alone when I put on my make-up, all alone in Miska's apartment haha. I usually listen to different podcasts but the only ones I have found to be great often contain very sad and anxious. BUT then I started listening The Friday podcast with Hannah and Amanda (that I did not do it until now !!) and suddenly I had such a wonderful and happy moment in front of the makeup mirror that time just ran away and it felt like I had the best company in the world all the time!
So, if you like today's makeup, you can thank Hannah and Amanda for their wonderful podcast! :)
I offer step by step too! But sorry that there is a little bad light in the last pictures, it got dark outside before I was done.
Next week on Friday (December 5) I am going to an event in Uppsala where I will both work and mingle, and you are very welcome there in the evening if you want! :)
It's the hair salon Creative Zone in Uppsala (where I fix my hair!) which celebrates that this year it is 20 years since the owner won World Cup Gold in London!
During the evening, it's mingling (and mingling photographer!) With bubbles, fantastic offers and lots of models that we will style from head to toe - and so it's me who fixes the make-up! :) Perfect inspiration like this in the winter darkness!
Creative Zone has organized the evening in collaboration withHouse of Doris (clothes), Hairology (hair care brand), Photographer Juliana Fälldin, and me!
It takes place between 19.00-21.00 and you can register at 018-141000 or personalencz@gmail.com - but today is the last day to sniff (p.g.a. att salongen ska fixa “överraskningar” yeeeey!) så tveka inte för länge! :)
Throws in for fun pictures from a makeup job that I did at another hair salon in Uppsala before, and god what I miss my hair extensions now just for that! I liked Hair Talk but Creative Zone does not work with it anymore, so I get a little eager to try Great Lengths which they have worked with for several years instead.
But who knows, I might be inspired by something completely different when I see all the hairstyles at the event later! :)
Do you remember when I previously told you about the organic spot treatment cream for acne that is so heavenly good? On The Spot it is called and comes from the organic brand Sanctum. It sold out super fast, but now it is in stock again! :)
During my teens, I had quite a lot of problems with pimples, and can still have it in certain periods. In other words, I have tested a lot of different products against pimples, and can say that spot treatment creams basically never work for me! Very many of them are strong and even to dry out the skin, which does not feel particularly smart…
So when I started using Sanctum and their topical cream for pimples, I was very happy, because it helps for real and it does so by soothing, healing and at the same time moisturizing the skin!
Available at creativemakeup.se for SEK 139, buy it here!
On The Spot contains lots of good ingredients such as aloe vera, macadamia oil and avocado oil. But these three ingredients are the ones that are most active against the pimples: Tea tree oil - Soothing, antibacterial and healing. Vitamin E. - Moisturizes and promotes cell renewal. Licorice extract - Anti-inflammatory and healing properties.
Tea tree oil is the oil that gives the cream its relatively strong but still natural and fresh scent, the cream smells quite strong of wood so that it almost becomes a bit of a tiger balm feeling. I like the scent but it's lucky you should not have it all over your face if you say so.
Tea tree oil is known for its calming and healing effect and is mainly used for acne, insect bites and itching. From my own experience I can also tell you that it is great on wasp stings! My sister stepped on a wasp this summer and screamed and screamed (she is not sensitive to pain, she does not even want anesthesia when she tattoos her eyebrows because she thinks it is unnecessary) but then she really suffered so I ran quickly and picked it up cream, and about two seconds after I smeared the evil area on her foot, it stopped hurting! Both me and my sister were completely shocked haha! So it is a proof of how soothing and fast-acting the cream is:)
This is how I walk around at home in the morning when I am newly awake, unmade up and rough.
Above all, the On The Spot cream is important in the morning because it is often when I want to soothe the pimples properly before I start putting on make-up, but I also use it in the evening when I feel it is needed. It is especially good for bad pimples that have flared up properly, then you really feel that the irritated pimple calms down and stops hurting so much.
I use it on all my pimples, both large and small, but the small ones always disappear relatively quickly, so there it is difficult to immediately say a difference. But on the big annoying stress fins that I have a tendency to get, real inboarders, there I can definitely say that this is the savior in need!
Here are two reviews I found on Sanctum's website:
On The Spot contains 100% natural ingredients, of which 86% are organically certified. The entire package is biodegradable in nature within 5 years, the vegan and certified by Organic Food Chain Australia. And of course not tested on animals.
