Jag har t\u00e4nkt ganska l\u00e4nge att “efter 25 augusti s\u00e5 kommer allting vara back to normal igen” och d\u00e5 har det k\u00e4nts s\u00e5 l\u00e5ngt fram, men nu \u00e4r vi h\u00e4r! :)<\/p>\n

Because after this week, everyone is back from vacation and I also had my last work Saturday at the salon for the summer. So now it feels like autumn for real!<\/p>\n

News from Pixi!<\/strong>
\nThis week finally came the long awaited news from Pixi, so much fun!<\/p>\n

There are two products that I will put to the test before we possibly include them in the range - Lash lift Mascara and Liquid Fairy Light which are liquid glitter.<\/p>\n

New already now are several new shades on products that we already have in the range! Both on eyeliner pencils, foundation, liquid concealer, canned concealer and colored lip balm. So it was a lot to grab and I'm not 100% ready yet, but I've come a long way :)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The first task was to take pictures of everything! New swatch images for the webshop and images for the beauty guide posts that need updating.<\/p>\n

This became a morning project one day when we went to work only after lunch. A photo morning with podcast and coffee in my own photo studio - one of my happy places :)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Olga helped me put everything new with a barcode in the checkout and then I put everything on the shelves. Product places did not fit with the news now, so it was not just about setting everything up, it was a whole reorganization!<\/p>\n

Then I fixed new product pictures and put everything in the webshop. So what is left is to update swatch pictures and posts, but now it is possible to buy all the news both in our store and in webshop<\/a> :)<\/p>\n

Photo job for Macapa Sunglasses<\/strong>
\nMiska has just gotten in touch with an old friend again who has recently started his own company with stylish sunglasses! Miska may also be involved in that company, very fun!<\/p>\n

Hemsidan beh\u00f6vde nya produktbilder p\u00e5 alla solglas\u00f6gon och arbetsskadad som jag \u00e4r s\u00e5 b\u00f6rjade jag p\u00e5 min lediga s\u00f6ndag fota och redigera dom mest “sv\u00e5ra” glas\u00f6gonen helt utan att dom bett mig om det haha.<\/p>\n

The most beautiful sunglasses (in my opinion) have a light off-white frame and rose-colored mirror glasses. However, they are tricky to take pictures because the color in the glass is quite light so they change a lot depending on how they are reflected. Either you see the whole room in the glass or you look straight through and then they do not look at all like they do in reality.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So it was a lot of finishing work in photoshop, but it turned out really well in the end :)<\/p>\n

I took the glass from one picture and the frames from another picture, so it's a clip to make them as close to reality as possible.<\/p>\n

Here is the result:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Surely they are nice? :) SEK 475 costs them and is available Macapa-sunglasses.com<\/a> (note not sponsored haha).<\/p>\n

I also took a full picture when I have them on:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I hold a white piece of paper in front so that you do not see my messy dressing table in the glasses haha! In this picture they look more purple but the product picture above is more similar to how the color is in reality.<\/p>\n

Kickoff planning & metrics<\/strong>
\nOn September 5, we have a kickoff with the company and this week I have completed our powerpoint presentation and counted on new metrics that we will follow during the year.<\/p>\n

The metrics are a fairly large project, it will now be the 3rd year that we show the figures for the whole team every other week so that they are updated with how things are going for the company. And now that Annika is on maternity leave, it is more important than ever to follow the economy so that you quickly discover if it is going in the wrong direction - and can celebrate when it goes in the right direction of course!<\/p>\n

So the goal with the metrics right now is not that we should increase a lot, but that it should be stable even if you and Annika are excluded completely from the result. And for it to work, you can not only set a goal and then keep your fingers crossed that it will go the way - but you have to count on what is reasonable for each person and follow up all the time so that you can take action on something not working.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Bara presentationen i sig var ett stort projekt haha! Man beh\u00f6ver g\u00f6ra en ny slide-bild f\u00f6r varje punkt, och v\u00e5r nul\u00e4gesbild best\u00e5r av massor av punkter som ska listas stegvis s\u00e5 bara del delen av presentationen \u00e4r 27 bilder :) Och precis n\u00e4r jag var f\u00e4rdig med det och tryckte p\u00e5 “spela” s\u00e5 s\u00e5g jag att allting pl\u00f6tsligt var superlitet p\u00e5 sk\u00e4rmen! S\u00e5 det var bara att g\u00f6ra om och g\u00f6ra r\u00e4tt :)<\/p>\n

Saturday job<\/strong>
\nThe last Saturday of this summer is now over! Me, Ida and Mia took customers on a conveyor belt. I myself had 2 bridal make-up and 1 bridesmaid make-up and in total we all had 11 customers in 4 hours.<\/p>\n

Den ena brudens man hade sett sminket redan efter provmakeupen och hade sagt att det verkligen blev wow-snyggt. Bruden ber\u00e4ttade att dom hade j\u00e4ttemycket strul inf\u00f6r br\u00f6llopet med bilar som gick s\u00f6nder, folk som satt fast i l\u00e5nga k\u00f6er m.m. s\u00e5 hon hade varit stressad \u00f6ver det p\u00e5 morgonen \u00f6ver att precis allting strular och d\u00e5 hade hennes man sagt “men EN sak kommer i alla fall att vara perfekt” “vad\u00e5?” “ditt smink!” haha jag blev s\u00e5\u00e5 s\u00e5 glad n\u00e4r hon ber\u00e4ttade det! :) Det \u00e4r ju framf\u00f6r allt viktigast att bruden \u00e4r n\u00f6jd men det \u00e4r ju verkligen ett stort plus i kanten att brudgummen ocks\u00e5 tyckte att det var j\u00e4ttefint :)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Rest<\/strong>
\nMy body needs some rest because now I have been sick for 3 weeks. After the pneumonia became good, I have had a cough, you know those who just hold on and refuse to let go even though you are not really sick anymore. And so I went on the worst thunder cold too, I do not even remember the last time I had a cold, I am so heavenly rare. But on Tuesday and Wednesday I worked from home, which was nice when I had to cheat like every other minute.<\/p>\n

So the first thing I did when I got home last Saturday was to fire down the boiler (we need to fire to get hot water at home in the house) and after three traumatic spider incidents in the basement, I finally got hot water and then lay in the bathtub for four (!) hours.<\/p>\n

I have started watching the series Pretty Little Liars and lay and streaked in the bath with hair wrap and face mask, so heavenly cozy :)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What a wonderful end to the week!<\/p>\n

Otherwise, everything has rolled on as usual, I have worked from home for two days, we have started with hug meetings now (staff meetings) after the summer break and on Thursday I was almost fully booked with customers so then I stood in the makeup studio all day.<\/p>\n

Now there are only two work weeks left, then it's my turn to have a holiday! :)<\/p>\n

Hugs are \u2665<\/p>\n
