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 may not be the world's most creative makeup, but I just had to try this look for my new hair color! Sooo heavenly beautiful!
I do not have time to write in more detail right now because I am going to put on make-up for a bachelor party in Stockholm, 12 girls who are going on a lot of mischief! But if you are wondering about something specific, just shout :)
I get a lot of questions from people who do not know what shade to buy on Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade, which is available at e.g. Lyko.se (adlink)
Here are all the colors of the Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade:
At the time of writing, this Pomade is available in six different shades, but they will probably launch even more later. Here is a swatch on the nuances that are available now:
These three shades are suitable for people with relatively light hair color:
Blonde is a reasonably light shade that suits most people, neither too hot nor too cold. Taupe is a shade that suits a little more rat-colored hair colors. Soft Brown is also light but goes a little more in the red direction.
These shades suit those with darker hair color:
Medium Brown they fit with fairly warm chocolate brown hair color. Dark Brown suitable for dark brunettes with cooler hair color. Ebony are the darkest shade and fit those with black hair.
I have Soft Brown for my new hair color! :)
Are you still unsure which shade of Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade to choose? Medium brown I would say is a pretty safe card that suits most people.
You do not have to match the hair color exactly, it is very nice for e.g. fair-haired to have darker eyebrows and dark-haired to have lighter brows.
I've had a bit of clothing anxiety before the Blog Awards to be honest, I get such extreme decision-making when it comes to certain things and choosing clothes is one such thing that I really think is great fun but that can really cause panic when I think about very haha.
But now I have found a delicious piece from River Island that I will wear if it fits well! What do you think of this jumpsuit? :)
Nice but still both autumn and party! In addition, I can wear it with a sweater over this fall (economical I count price per use hehe). Imagine big curly hair, dark marked eyes and a lip color that matches any of the colors in the pattern. And then heels on it!
Last Wednesday I was at an event with ghd at Musikaliska in Stockholm, a press event before the launch of ghd's very first curling irons which will go on sale on October 1!
I who am not 100% familiar with hair got a lot of tips and new knowledge, super fun! Now I thought I would share the info with you :)
I myself have not tested the curling iron yet (4 different pliers are launched, and we brought one of them home with us!) But we got to see how to use them all and from what I saw I can probably say that I recommend these to you. But I will return when I have tested myself!
First of all, that you should never style your hair with heat above 200° many of you have probably heard that, 200° is the melting point of the hair and with that said, you all understand how much it wears on the hair. I usually to be on the safe side use about 150° heat when I use styling tools (I'll stop now) but ghd's products are 185° exactly, neither more nor less, and it is very well thought out!
Ghd has researched and concluded that 185° är den optimala temperaturen när man ska styla håret, för vid 185° så uppnår håret “the glass transition phase” vilket innebär att håret kan formas lätt och keeps its shape when it has cooled, without that the heat damages the hair. So you who can regulate the temperature of your pliers, choose 185°! :)
What is the difference between the 4 curling irons?
Det är två “klassiska” locktänger där man snurrar upp håret och får det att hållas kvar med hjälp av en klämma.
One, Classic Curl Tongue, is 26mm and is for a classic look and works well on all hair lengths.
The other one, Soft Curl Tongue, is a large curling iron of 32mm and makes larger softer curls. Suitable for people with long hair.
The other two are wands, ie an elongated pliers without a clip where you hold the hair yourself.
One, Classic Wave Wand, is an above seaweed for creating glamorous curls. Suitable for people with long hair.
The other one, Creative Curl Wall, is a cone-shaped pliers that gives a more beach look and fits all hair lengths. This can be used for many kinds of curls and only the imagination sets limits!
Properties of ghd's curling irons
The pliers have all the details I am looking for in a styling tool:
On / off button
Long cord
Automatic shutdown after 30 minutes
Gets hot fast, after only 10-20 seconds
Styling your hair fast, you just need to hold the hair for 5-8 seconds
Even heat all the time (thanks to tri-zone technology)
The right heat
Ceramic tiles
Sustainable results
Does not damage the hair
Gives nice glossy curls
Universal voltage - can be used in all countries
2 year warranty
With these properties, you get a nice and durable result that does not give you worn hair. If you use their Curl Hold Spray, you should get a result that even lasts at night so that you can wake up and have just as beautiful curls the next day! :)
This curling iron series is called ghd Curve, launched in October (at selected salons and is also available on Lyko.se) and has a recommended price of SEK 1599 per curling iron.
I also got a nice bag! It is Limited Edition, and I am actually thinking of having it as a make-up bag haha. Anyone surprised? :)
Finally offers some pictures from the event. The pink hair is curled with Soft Curl Tong that I brought home! The blonde hair is curled with Classic Curl Tong and the right side shows how the result is if you brush the curls.
I forgot the camera at home therefore it is bad mobile pictures from the event, it was not directly the best photo light in there either. But the picture on the left is the result with Classic Wave Wand, and the picture on the right is Creative Curl Wand!
It will be super exciting to test yourself, both how the curls will be, how easy it is to all the curls yourself and especially if the durability is as good as ghd promises!
As you know, I dyed my hair yesterday, but I had done a make-up before what I was going to show you, so here is the last make-up in the previous hair color! :)
It turned out to be a step-by-step make-up in earthy colors, super nice autumn look!
