My makeup corner

14

I'm not sure if I can do my make-up now, it's starting to get so much. Well, at least I did not go down without explaining myself first.

This is because I have played and organized a lot in my updated make-up corner that I wrote about earlier! :)

Sooo nice, the storage drawer is as good as it gets. Perfectly high, does not take up much space and the drawers hold lots of stuff!

ikea hurts

Surely it turned out fine?

Much that could be honed, of course. For example, a real dressing table (which I actually own but do not have room for) and maybe nice jars to put the brushes in. But so far, dining tables and beer glasses will suffice;)

You can not see the model, hahaha. Stöööökigt was the word!

Now I got a place for my wonderful Kosta Boda lipsticks with, love, love, love!
Have a big Kosta Boda nail polish at home too, so nice :)

 

Every now and then I get the question if I can not show all the makeup I have. And I always thought it would be fun, it's a lot! But it's always so messy as I never have everything in front of me, a lot has been in old make-up bags and freezer bags in a closet. If you do not have room for everything, you do not have.

But now that I have it, and also have order and order, then I must take the opportunity to show you! :)

Here are pictures of my newly filled make-up boxes:

Eyeshadows and glitter.

Min “använder-nästan-varje-dag-låda” :)

Eyeliners, mascaras, eyebrow products and false eyelashes.

Primer- Primer, concealer, foundation, pillows, blush.

Lips!

The bottom drawers are much deeper:

All palettes!

(As well as makeup remover and the dustpan I clean the make-up mirror with, they got such a good place there)

Hair and skin care, at least the products I use the most.

Foundations in shades that do not fit.
And some nail polish!

The last box contains good and mixed, product samples, tape for fun make-up, business cards / flyers, small jars, a can of powder…

 

I think that everything sees very little out now that it got so scattered, I'm used to having everything packed together and messy!

Although I can admit that I have some stuff left at home too…;) But that makeup is so old that it should really be thrown away.

But I find it so hard to throw away makeup that is both nice and works, even though I may not use it. It does not feel like an eyeshadow becomes stale when it is left untouched in a make-up bag as well.

 

Well, I hope you found it a little interesting to see how I feel! :)

Makeup storage

Oh I'm so happy right now !!!

I turn 20 on July 13, and today Miska came home with a premature birthday present for me- A tall, white storage drawer where I can have all my makeup!

Miska and his friend are currently in the process of assembling it. They swear and sweat, while I sit and plan how to organize everything in the boxes :)

Is on Ikea for you who are hungry!

 

Maybe you should add for those of you who have not read it before, that Miska's apartment is so small that I basically can not move in here even though I am here all the time. There is no closet space for all my things etc.

Men eftersom jag “i princip” bor här så har jag ju såklart ändå en sminkhöra – matbordet! Och även fast jag försöker så är det svårt att hålla ordning på allting, och det blir ganska snabbt ett bombnedslag av smink och skönhetsprodukter! Äter gör vi i soffan.

I have mine large makeup bag there, but it's so full so if I need anything at the bottom I have to tear up everything in the way.

But now it's the problem out of the world, and I think Miska is almost as happy as I am! ;) Think when we can afford a bigger apartment together, then I'll fix the world's finest make-up room!

 

The inspiration is flowing here at home right now, you should know! :)

My perfumes

1

I'm, despite being a beauty freak, not one of those girls who has a whole shelf full of perfumes.

Perfumes are super fun, and I love walking around the store and smelling different bottles!

Men jag själv är en sån som gärna hittar “min doft” som jag köper igen och igen. Jag vill liksom att min doft ska vara “that's what Helena smells like” istället för “do you have that perfume on you now?”

I currently have two perfumes that I switch between, usually one for a party and the other for everyday!

This fragrance from Armani (Eau de Parfum) är den som jag har använt allra längst och som känns mest “Helena”.

I can never stop having it at home! The scent is quite heavy in my opinion, HERE it says:
“En frisk, blommig doft med inslag av tränoter. Doftnoter: Topp: Apelsin, Ingefära Hjärta: Apelsinblomma Bas: Honung, Sandelträ”

 

This is my second perfume, Tarot 14 La Tempérance (Eau de Toilette)

Denna har jag ofta på fester för att känna mig “extra fin”. Det är som att locka håret, rakt är lika fint men då jag alltid har det till vardags så känner man sig extra fin i lockigt på fest!

HERE it says a little more about this:
“Exotiska ambrettefrön blandade med berusande iris, lugnade av len mysk. 

The harmony of light and darkness, of freshness and warmth, of volatility and depth, structure and flow: the zest of the noble ambrette seed in harmony with rose pepper is balanced by the darkness and depth of the iris flower. The floral structure and ingenuity wrap in traces of flowing musk and elegant patchouli. ”

 

How do you do it, do you have lots of perfumes or have you found the right one? :)
