Good morning everyone! I feel so terrible about the fact that I don't get to write anything at all lately. Uni and work are just a bit too much sometimes so there is not much time left to write nice blog posts anymore. I try to write one or two if possible and I know it's a pity, but there is no other way. So, this morning I had breakfast while watching TV and I obviously also got ready for uni. First I'll have to pick up my brother from school though and then rush to uni. :D I didn't quite know what to do with my hair today so I put it up in a bun and I hope it will stay alright until I'm back home again. When it comes to make-up I didn't feel like experimenting so I used all the stuff I usually do and I might even apply some lipstick before I leave :) My outfit is a cosy one yet still good enough for uni. I have this black tunic with this pussybow-kind of string in the front and the embroidered detailing. I think it looks so pretty and cute! I...

To create this look, I use so many products and you can't even really tell, because I think that this make-up looks so natural! Even though I just recently uploaded a quite similar post, which is here , I thought I'd do this look as well, because I use slightly different products.   First I of course, use my Collection Lasting Perfection concealer in the shade 02 Cool Medium , which is at the moment a bit too dark for me and leaves orange patches on my face, but I try to finish it off before buying the lighter shade. I use the Real Techniques Pointed Foundation Brush to blend all of the product in as nicely as possible. Then I use my Bourjois Healthy Balance compact powder in shade 53 Light Beige , and the EcoTOOLS Tapered Brush to apply it all over my face. The next step is bronzer, which I use a lot especially in winter. I still use the Bourjois Delice de Poudre bronzing powder in shade 52 , also using the Tapered Brush from EcoTOOLS . Once I'm ha...

During summer I kept my make-up quite simple, using only mascara and concealer, adding a bit of bronzer to bring out my tan a bit more. But now, I look more and more pale and because of that ill and tired. This means that I try to cover up my face as much as possible in order to look fresh and healthy. So here are all the steps to my full make-up. 1) First I use my Collection Lasting Perfection concealer under my eyes and on my spots. 2) Then I use my Bourjois Healthy Balance powder to fix the concealer and to mattify my face. 3) After that I apply my Bourjois Delice de Poudre bronzer nearly all over my face and generously underneath my cheek bones to contour my "chubby" face a bit. 4) Then I continue with the Delice de Poudre Highlighter to gently highlight my cheek bones, my brow bones and the other areas the light would naturally hit. 5) Next I usually use my Bourjois Quad palette in 02 Over rose and try to create something acceptable on my eyelids.  6) ...

As I published the Favourites post about other things, now it is time to talk about beauty. I really don't have many beauty products, only what I need. I would really love to have really excited beauty products but right now, I am not in such a good financial situation to buy whatever I'd like to. But still, I think that there are some changes from month to month, regarding preferred beauty products. 1) I am in love with the coconut lip calm from Yves Rocher. It is so soft and so creamy and it smells so nice as well. I use it so often during the day that it is nearly empty already, and I bought this one at the airport on my way to Scotland in April. This is actually my second lip balm of this scent and it surely is my most used one. I also have one that smells like raspberries but it is tinted so this one is better for on the go in my opinion. My lips are usually dry and I need to have lip care everywhere I go, so this one is always in my bag to protect my lips. 2)...

Last night was not the best for us, we are totally ill. Looks like we have a flu. We were constantly waking up and in the early morning hours we saw that the sky was totally pink! It looked so incredible that I tried to take a picture of it. It doesn't look too good there, but it can give you an impression of what it was like. I had to get up at some point later because I was meant to go to College and I needed to wash my hair before. I wasn't sure if I was even able to do that and I didn't feel like going to College and sitting there for 2,5 hours. But we had to enrol in Spanish today so I decided to go. I couldn't really eat anything as my throat was so sore and I just went for my Ready Brek porridge with strawberry milk and strawberries. It was nice and it didn't hurt my throat too much.  When I got ready I made my way to College, where I had a bit of the lesson and then I managed to finally enrol. I now have my student ID and am officially a student. L...

Today I woke up and it was raining nearly all day long. Eryk and I stayed at home and all we did was being lazy, eating snacks, playing with Maya, playing games and instagramming. In the afternoon I decided to cook something and all I did was just a tasty cheese and bacon pasta bake. It is such a simple, quick meal, but so tasty at the same time! My belly is still so full that I can't move too much. Now Eryk is at work for the next four hours and I will spend another lonely, lazy evening in front of the computer watching some series and eating crisps. At least I finally managed to revise some French earlier today because in 5 days I will have my first day of my French course and I thin it would be better if I'm going to be prepared well. Also, tomorrow I am going to revise some Spanish as this course starts in 4 days already. Oh dear, I will have four days of college a week and I will also need to work! Thank god the courses are only about 2 hours a day. Look at this cutie ...

Hello! Today I had three lessons in the morning and two in the afternoon and I just came home. I need to study for English and Maths and I am so exhausted already that I don't even know how I will manage to do this, but I need to be strong and do as much as I can. This means that I can't write a special topic entry today, so I will show you some pictures. My eye make up was the usual one again: Oriflame eyecrayon, Alverde highlighter, Essence kajal pen, Rimmel mascara and Maybelline mascara. It is so green again, I didn't really realise that the trees grew leaves again! I showed this dress some times already but I never actually showed it fro the back, so this is the biig cut out there. I really like this dress because it is so simple and  then this one detail makes it so interesting again. It is perfect for summer days, but also for special occasions I think. And my nail polish was the Essie-79 Sand Tropez. It was however, extremely difficult to appl...

Hello! Today I thought I would show you products that cost less than 5   €  and that are working really well. Also, I would do a post with products from 5 to 10  €  and maybe products from 10 to 20  € . After that I would also want to show things that cost less than 10 £ ,because I also have some of them. I am a person that likes to try out cheaper things before I buy more expensive ones, however these are the products I would buy again and again. 1) My Face Yound Matt Finish Shine-Control sheets: The name of it tells everything about the product, it has  a handy pocket, so that you can take it with you if you feel like it. It contains 50 sheets, you just press them onto your oily face parts and you are ready to go! I love this product and I will surely buy it again as it really works for me and especially in summer it is a must-have in my beauty products collection. It costs something over 1 €   so it is really affordable and worth the price....

Hello! Since the sun is up for a much longer time now, and this is good so, I am quite confused. I have no idea what time it is because it is not getting dark until probably 9pm. I love summer but this is confusin my brain during the first longer days. So now it is nearly 8 am and I just found some time to do this entry. It will be about the used products again and I didn't have many of them, only six this time! Quite strange that 5 out of 6 products are blue! I found this baby oil in a drawer in the bathroom and have been using it on my skin right after taking a shower. I have been doing this every evening and I just love how it helped my skin getting softer and finally more hydrated. After I finished this bottle I bought another one (about 4,50 Euros) Two days ago I found another bottle at home that I could have used before buying another 500ml. But I will use it anyways so no worries! WILL REPURCHASE The head&shoulders shampoos are really in all of my e...

Hello! Today is quite a bad day, but also quite a good day, so I do't want to be sad all the time and decided to try out some lipsticks I could find in the bathroom and I realsied that I somehow love all of themm, even though I've never used them before. Looks like I'll be wearing them now more often! This was a morning picture actually :D Ok, here we have the lipsticks : Nivea, Givenchy, Chanel, Dior and one that I really have no idea where it is from because there is only the number of the shade.  The swatches are in the same order like the lipsticks on the first picture. Nivea-Coral 23 Colour Passion : quite an orangey tone but in summer it will look awesome I believe! Givenchy-12 Sensual Rose :This is a really dark red that would be great for autumn or winter maybe. It looks a bit creepy as well :D Chanel-12 Factice Dummy : This one looks very shiny but when you apply it on your lips it is very light and quite a nude colour I'd...
