The Katniss braid









I took theese pictures several weeks ago but I wanted to post them anyways, I love how this braid turned out. This look is inspired by Katniss from the Hunger games, I have done this braid before but this time it turned out better. I watched a video by Letsmakeitup1 on youtube and she showed a trick of twisting the hair which made the overall look so beautiful. I think that this braid is so great and it's suitable for many different occasions.

October favorites



So another month has gone by so it’s time for my October favorites,

Lush Popcorn lip scrub, during fall and winter my lips get a little dry so I like to scrub my lips with this product and I love it. You could easily make it yourself at home with just some sugar and olive oil but Lush makes them so tasty. I was not to crazy about this popcorn taste because it does not really taste like popcorn but I think the bubblegum one is nice that you get now from the holiday collection. When I run out of this popcorn one I Think I will get the scrub called santa. No matter which Lush lip scrub you choose it will make your lips soft and nice.

Revlon colorburst lipstick “045 Raspberry”, I just love this color it is the perfect fall lip color in my opinion, the dark berry color is beautiful this time of year. The lipstick feels nice on my lips and I like that it is not dry and I also like that it is a quite matte finish. If you would like a slightly lighter color I recommend “032 plumberry” from the same line.

Rimmel London wake me up foundation, this is a foundation that has been in my collection since spring and I haven’t been using it a lot but this month I rediscovered it. I think it’s a great everyday foundation that gives you medium coverage it evens out your skintone and gives you a nice glow.

Collection lasting perfection concealer, this is a well talked about concealer that does it’s job amazingly it covers dark circles and any areas you wish to hide really well. I just love this concealer!

Rimmel Stay Matte powder, I mentioned this powder in last months favorites and it’s a favorite this month to. It really does keep your skin matte all day long.

Elf eyebrow Kit, this is also a favorite from last month but I still love it as much, I have actually been using it for a long time now and it never fails me.

Benefit they’re real mascara, I started using this mascara last month and I still love it makes you eyelashes look amazing.

Crabtree & Evelyn Summer hill Hand therapy, This is an all time favorite hand cream for me I just love this product.

Victoria Secret’s Mango Temptation ultra – moisturizing hand and body cream, I love this scent it is so wonderful it’s mango nectar and hibiscus. I like that the scent is sweet but I don’t find it to sweet. The consistency is quite thick so I like to use it mainly for my hands but also on dry parts like elbows and knees.

Sachajuan Stockholm leave in conditioner, I use this conditioner after every wash, it helps to keep my hair soft and healthy. My hair likes to tangle so this helps when it’s time to brush the hair.

Sally Hansen Nailgrowth miracle, I just love this clear nailpolish that makes your nails grow, you can use it on it’s own or as a base coat. You have to use it consistently for it to work the best, put a coat on every other day and when you have achieved your desired  length use a strengthening product so your nails won’t break that easily.




Leave me comment telling me what your October favorites are,

September favourites


Benefit they're real mascara - Love this mascara it gives you so long and beautiful lashes, I have used this product a lot during September.
Crabtree & Evelyn "Summer Hill"Hand therapy - it says that it's specially formulated with natural shea butter to soothe and help protect hands. I love this hand cream it really keeps your hands moistured and soft and I like that the scent is not overpowering.
Revlon Lipbutter in "candy apple"- I love this red colour I have been wearing it a lot during September. I like that it's more subtle than a liptick so it is not that bold when you feel like a softer look.
Versace yellow diamond perfume - I had this little perfume sample and this month I have been wearing it a lot, It is not a heavy scent and I think of citrus. I am bad at describeing scents but I really like it.
Elf eyebrow kit - this stuff is amazing! I love it, the best eyebrow gel and powder, I have an old blogpost about this product if you want  to read more about it.
Rimmel Stay matte powder - This is my all time favourite powder it keeps your skin matte the whole day and it gives you a really nice finish and plus is has natural minerals. You can't go wrong with that :)
Maybelline color tattoo "25 Bad to the bronze" (in Europe this color is called Bronze on and on) - This has been my eyeshadow base for the majority of September, it is an amazing product that stay on your eyes all day long so no primer needed. I have used it all over the eye and then a darker color in my crease mostly "busted "from the naked2 palette. The color tattoos is amazing so they are good to have in loads of different colors.
Theese have been my favourites, what products have you been loving in September?

Jean Paul Gaultier: From the sidewalk to the Catwalk


Sunday I went to an exhibition at the "Arkitektur -och designcentrum" which is a museum in Stockholm and it was the last day of showing Jean Paul Gaultier: from the sidewalk to the catwalk. It was amazing, I loved it! Gaultier is truly an artist and his clothes is so special and there were so many amazing creations there. Couture is something really special and I loved seeing the garments up close and by each garment there was a note of how many hours were spent making it. If you are not familiar with Haute Couture, the garments are only made by hand and it's a one of a kind and it is made for measurment. I wanted to show you some pictures of some of my favourites so here they ar, Enjoy! :)

Stripes a true look from Gaultier

Sorry for this blurry picture, but I just love this dress


Just Love this one so chic :)

Armcandy





During summertime I love wearing armcandy and I love to wear fun bright coolors like this and I like to break it off with a neutral color in between. I bought the bracelets from Gina Trciot on sale last year but I think you can find similar ones in some different stores.
How do you wear armcandy?

My hair, saturday




This is what my hair looked like yesterday night, I did not know what to do with it so I just played around with my hair and this is the result. It turned out to be inspired by Ivy Dickens from Gossip Girl, I don't remember the episode but I know it was from season 5. I really like it, I hope you do to :)
