Day cream at night? Ajja bajja!

Last Wednesday I was at an event with the skin care brand Exuviance, which I have been using for a few months now. Very informative, interesting and cozy!

This eye serum and these bionic pads have already become new favorites on the morning twig. You really feel that the skin wakes up and you get this wonderful feeling afterwards that the products really work in the skin!

I have always loved skin care, I love to lubricate myself, test new brands, feel new scents, textures, and then see the result. But not in the way that I have really understood how it works and why you do what you do.

At events like this, you get to learn a lot, both small and large. Among the first things I learned was that I pronounced the name Exuviance completely wrong haha. Then we learned more about the background of the brand, did you know that the men who launched Exuviance were also the ones who from the beginning discovered that AHA acids can benefit the skin? Now there are several brands that use AHA acids, but Exuviance still has 120 patents that make the brand unique.

Dermatologist - Have you tried this night cream?
I - No, I actually do not have it!
Dermatologist - What night cream do you use then? 
I - I usually just take my day cream.
Dermatologist - No, no, no you must not do that !!
The dermatologist for two others who work in this - She uses her day cream at night!
The others - * Shakes both heads *

Haha, I felt a bit like a UFO there among all the professionals right then, it's obviously not good (or necessary) to have a sun protection factor on your face around the clock. Quite logical when you think about it.

Super good that I got to learn it in the end and can do the right thing! Think that even a beauty junkie like me can be so sloppy;)

Here we sit and test a lot of products, picture borrowed from Presskontakternas Intstagram @Presskontakterna_sthlm.

In conclusion, we also received skin analysis and facial treatment. The treatment consisted of AHA peeling, which is a liquid you brush on the skin and leave on for 4 minutes. After that massage and then a gold mask. Really Wonderful!

Jag har alltid trott att jag har fet hy, eller blandad hy kanske nu på senare år. Förut var jag aldrig torr i ansiktet “vad är det?” typ. Men jag skulle nog själv säga att jag nu är normal med feta områden, som sträcker ut sig lite mer än T-zoonen.

Now I was told that I have a mixed skin - which is actually also sensitive in some places. And that explains why I get red so easily, after a brow pick I can not go out without makeup if you say so :)

Yes, this is what I look like after brow picking, and then there were not even very many straws that needed to be removed!

The first thing I did when I went home was to call my sister who also uses Exuviance:
I - Do you use night cream?
Syrran - No I usually take my day cream at night too.
I - But are you gaaalen!?! You absolutely must not do that !!

Lol. Anyway, I'm very happy with this day! And now my skin really shines after the treatment !! Incredibly good results and the skin looks really fresh!

I recommend that you treat yourself to a salon some day before Christmas and New Year's Eve. Or maybe give away as a Christmas present! :)

Soon when I have tested a little more, there will be more product reviews from Exuviance.

Have a really nice Friday night corner, for me it will be Idol and home spa night!

Wish make-up - Green and black

I want a dark make-up with only a hint of green in it. It's for a dance show on 14/12. The first issue I am in, the clothes should be completely black and in the next issue, each person should have a color, and my color turned green.

Descriptive words: For a specific event, Dark, Green, Black.

Actually, if I were to do a make-up with just a hint of green in it as you explain, I would have put a little on the outer part of the eyelid, like a little green eye shadow on the outer lash line.

But for a dance show, it is important that it is actually visible on stage as well, otherwise you can just as well have all black. So I chose green glitter, it is much more visible than eye shadow, and I also put the green on the lower lash line that is visible wherever you look.

I also chose to draw out the black in a cat eye shape, also to make it more visible in the distance.

Of course there are other variations you can do as well, such as green glitter on the eyelid or as eyeliner along the upper lash line :)

Hope you are happy with my interpretation!

1. Black eye shadow on the entire eyelid, Pur Minerals Eye shadow trio (Rock Goddess)
2. Black eye shadow also at the end of the lower lash line.
3. Blur the edges.
4. Green eye shadow innermost on the lower lash line and in the corner of the eye, iMys 252 Palette.
5. Light shimmery eye shadow In the corner of the eye, Annika's Favorite Shadow.
6. Green glitter at the bottom of the lower lash line, Make Up Store Glitter (Peacock) attached with eye drops.
7. Black eyeliner along the waterline, Peggy Sage Waterproof Pen.
Black eyeliner with wing along the upper lash line, Oriflame Giordani Gold Liquid Eye Liner.
8. Black mascara on all lashes, Oriflame Giordani Gold Lash Panorama Mascara.

Red lips, Oriflame Giordani Gold Jewel Lipstick (Eternal Red)

This is also a perfect look for New Year's Eve!

New Year's glitter!

As long as you use something good to attach glitter with, for example Mixing Liquid from Makeup Up Store, it does not matter what you use for glitter. The quality is basically the same.

So you can indulge in cheap glitter from hobby shops or toy shops if you want, or glitter that is sold in connection with nail polish. Glitter as glitter!

But I must say that Depends glitter has something extra, it really sparkles in a sparkling way so you almost get dizzy if you look closely! :) They only cost SEK 49 and are available in the colors white, silver, gold, copper, blue, dark purple, lime green and light purple.

 

New Year's glitter

 

I have the golden one at home now, but I think I have to go and buy a little more!

It is always difficult to get glitter to look good in the picture, but later today there will be a New Year's make-up where I use the golden glitter from Depend! Keep an eye out Imakeyousmile.se :)
