Mini Haul!


Hello Sweet-Tarts and Cutie-Pies! It's so nice to be back! I couldn't stand not having my own design header, it just didn't feel as personal nor fun. So I have now, even though it's not very good or complicated, made my first header for this blog! Hope you can stand it ;)

  Yesterday, my mom and I went shopping! I went to Lush for the first time in my life and bought my first MAC lipstick ever! (I do own the MAC Pro Longwear Concealer, so it's my second MAC product ever ;) )

  I also got some super cute clothes, but I won't show them right now.


This will just be my first impression on these products and I'll make sure to do further reviews on them once I've actually used them haha!


  First out is Bath Bomb "Shoot For The Stars" by Lush! The girl in the store told me it would make the bath go night sky-coloured with silver sparkles!
  It smells really lovely and STRONG though not the type of strong that gives you headache, but let's just say you could smell it from outside of the bag.




Next is this lipstick in "Syrup" by MAC. It's a really gorgeous autumn-colour that will actually work as a pretty natural shade for me since it's actually really close to my natural lip color. 


Like I said, reviews to come later on!


Kisses and love with whipped cream on top! <3

"Emily the Corpse Bride" Sketch


Hello lovies! I have been away without computer access for a few days, so that's why I haven't updated :( . 

  So, a few days ago I finished my first real and finished sketch since it's actually done with shadows and not just two colours haha. 
  Not that it's that great, but I thought I'd show you all! 


  Here's my version of Emily from the movie Corpse Bride! I love this movie, just as I like most Tim Burton movies ;)









What do you think?

New Buys!


  Sorry that I haven't updated much the last few days, but I've been so busy trying to choose which High School I want to go to. It's so difficult for me, since I don't want to risk regretting my decision later. Although I know that in the end I'll just have to be brave and take a chance.

  Anyway, a few days ago I went to the store and picked up a few new things!



Adorable purple earrings on the bottom!

  I adore these Maybelline 24 Hour Color Tattoo cream shadows! They are very pigmented, stays put all day and is very easy to work with. The top left ("Permanent Taupe") I had since earlier but I thought it could be included since it's from the same series, the other ones are new (for me ;) ) and they're called "Bad to the Bronze" and "Pink Gold". 


Swatches: Pink Gold, Permanent Taupe and Bad to the Bronze.



The Body Shop's "Almond Hand and Nail Cream". 
This is really great and for sale which is extra good since I would've wanted to buy it anyways.
  It's a white cream but it gets soaked into the skin really fast and doesn't stay sticky for long. It's a great moisutrizer and the AMAZING smell last for hours! =) This will probably be frequently used this winter since cold weather makes my hands super dry.

September Favourites!





Time for my September Favourites! I know it's a bit late, but better late than never ;) I've tried A LOT of new products this months and I've also kept using some older goodies! 



Favourite hair product: I've gone back and forth between different hair products for a while now, but I don't feel like I've found "The One" yet. This might be it! I bought it to try something new and I was so unexpecting that i didn't even get the matching shampoo! Lol. 

  I LOVE this! It makes my hair silky smooth and really lovely. I just got the matching shampoo today so I'm yet to find out if it's as good the conditioner but I'm really excited to try it!




Favourite skin care product: I have two this month! 


First is my I love... Candy Floss. The I love... series probably has the loveliest shower gels I've tried. They all smell really lovely and the smell lasts on my skin for hours and hours and hours... even after workouts sometimes. This particular one is a mini from a set of four called I love... Sweet Candy Treats.


This is a mini version of the HoneyMania Body Butter from The Body Shop's latest Honey Mania collection. 

  The scent is not the sweet honey I expected, but rather flowery. I like it a lot! 


Favourite makeup products:



Lovely lipbutter which smells like candy. It's amazing! I put this on my flaky lips and went to bed and when I woke up my lips were perfectly smooth! 




Beautiful shade. This is L'Oreals Le Blush in "Sandalwood Pink" it gives the perfect pink pop to my cheeks on a moody day! Ah screw it, it's lovely on a happy day too ;)


Best buy: The Body Shop's Blue Corn 3in1 Deep Cleansing Mask!



Read my review on this HERE


Worst buy:



I didn't really do my research before buying this, but I got it since I needed a new hair spray. Sadly though, this didn't do much for me. It did help some but I would have to spray sooo much of it to keep all of my hair in place.  

  It's not too bad I guess, just not that good neither. 


Random lifestyle favourites




I've became a total junkie of this game haha! Check it out it's so much fun! :D 


Favourite song

I had a hard time picking my fave songs of this months since I had many, but here's a few of them: 

  • Ellie Goulding -- Burn
  • Ariana Grande -- Piano
  • Selena Gomez -- Stars Dance




  What were your faves this month? Write in the comment section below!

Do you have a charm bracelet? Which charms do you own?

Review: Maybelline "Hot Plum"

I am a lip-makeup fanatic and since I hadn't gotten a new lipstick in a while I decided to get this gorgeous shade!
  It's Maybelline's Hot Plum.


  Now, I picked this shade because I have been longing for a slightly purple toned lipcolour for quite some time.
  Honestly I was a bit dissapointed by the "pinkness" of this shade, since it didn't really look plummy. 

  It's a darker hot pink and you might sense a little bit of plum in the shimmers.

  But, even if it isn't my perfect plum, it's still gorgeous!
  It's VERY pigmented too and the colour fits me quite nicely. 

  It lasts for a long time and even when the actual lipstick is gone, you can still see the colour on your lips if that makes any sense. 

  This is not one of those hydrating lipsticks and I actually find it a bit drying. It goes on a bit rough and can look slightly cakey.
 But not to worry! Just put on some lipbalm or lipgloss and you'll be fine!

  Like I said, this is a stunning colour and I think I would have loved it more if I hadn't expected the shade to be more purple.  

  I'd give this a 3.5 / 5 ! I would give this a higher score but though the colour is beautiful, it wasn't what I was looking for.

This or That Beauty TAG!


It's... Tuesday-Tag-day! I found this really fun "This or That Beauty Tag" HERE. (The option I chose is written in bold in case you wondered ;) )




MAKEUP...
blush or bronzer: Since I use bronzer to both contouring and as blush sometimes! 
lip gloss or lipstick: This was actually a tough choice but I picked lipgloss because it's easy to just re-apply throughout the day, the risk of it looking cakey and dry is also smaller. You can also option between a clear or a really pigmented lipgloss depending on how risky you're feeling ;)
eye liner or mascara: Although my eyelashes are pretty well defined anyway so I actually don't use eyeliner/mascara every single day. 
foundation or concealer: I usually don't wear foundation but a good concealer is a must-have in my book!
neutral or color eye shadow: Neutral to wear out-and-about but when I'm just playing with makeup at home I would pick color ;) lol
pressed or loose eye shadows: I don't think I've tried loose eye shadow, so pressed would by my choice but I LOVE cream eye shadows as well. 
brushes or sponges: I feel like brushes are more hygenic for some reason since you can actually see all the hairs but you can't see the insides of a sponge. 

NAILS...
OPI or china glaze: Only tried OPI. My own choice would be Essie though!
Long or short: I'm pretty fortunate to have naturally strong nails so they usually get pretty long. 
Acrylic or natural: Natural. 
Brights or darks: Bright colours just inspire me! It doesn't matter if I'm doing a math test or working out, If I look down at my nails and they are bright: I'll probably get happier!
Flower or no flower: Don't really understand the question but if it's about a painted flower on a nail then it's a no ;)

BODY...
perfume or body splash: They usually feel more... I don't know, real?! What I mean is that perfumes' scents usually feels richer. 
lotion or body butter 
body wash or soap
lush or other bath company: Haven't tried Lush despite all of the hype haha. Sometime (hopefully soon?) I will though. The Body Shop is my definite fav for skin!

FASHION...
jeans or sweat pants: I just can't stand the way sweat pants feel. Sorry :S lol
long sleeve of short: Depends on the weather ;). 
dresses or skirts
stripes or plaid: I don't think I own anything plaid actually... hmmm... Time to go shopping! ^.^ 
flip flops or sandals: Flip flops feel weird and the "flop-flop-flop" sound they make when you walk is sooo annoying haha.
scarves or hats
studs or dangly earrings: Ahhh! I can't pick one!
necklaces or bracelets
heels or flats: I'm a bit too young to wear heels every single day, but I like wedges a lot! And of course cute sneakers or boots!
cowboy boots or riding boots: Both can be really cute though!
jacket or hoodie: The string around the neck in hoodies seem to slowly suffocate me... lol ;) 
forever 21 or charlotte russe: Neither.
abercombie or Hollister: Neither.
saks 5th or nordstrom: Neither. 

HAIR...
curly or straight: I LIKE curly but I have pretty straight hair naturally.
bun or ponytail: Ponytail since I'm the WORST at making buns, even messy ones haha. 
bobby pins or butterfly clips
hair spray or gel: Spray tends to look less greasy on me. 
long or short: I'm growing mine! Goal is a bit shorter than waist length.  
light or dark: On me that is ;).
side sweep bangs or full bangs: Love both!
up or down: Though I very rarely wear it up.  

RANDOM...
Rain or shine: Rain, especially if I'm inside ;).
Summer or winter: Autumn is my favourite to be precise haha. 
Fall or spring 
Chocolate or vanilla 
East coast or west coast: Hmm... I Don't know. 



This was a pretty tricky, yet fun tag. Please try it and let me know in the comments if you do! 
Have a great day!
