Friday - Vlogday

Image
Hello everyone! I am so sorry that I don't post much lately but my life has gone pretty plain and boring because of uni. Everything I do during the day is get up and ready for uni, attend the lectures, come back home late. And then obviously, Saturdays I'm working too, which is another day where I can't really blog. However, this week was pretty exciting and busy because of the National Holiday in Austria, we also went out and in between the lectures we even managed to do some shopping - which is great. If you want to see what this week looked like , check out the vlog now! Also, enjoy Halloween and have a nice night out with your friends! I'll be working all day long tomorrow and will probably be so exhausted afterwards that I will come back home and just sit in my bed with a nice cup of tea and some sweet treats! -Olivia ~30.10.2015~

My OOTD: Austrian National Holiday

Image
It's National Holiday in Austria and my family and I went to town to see all the tanks, the soldiers and all of that stuff and it was really busy there. We were lucky this year though, because it was pretty warm! black loop scarf - Primark denim jacket - Levi's purple velvet skirt - Moschino black 80 den tights - Primark burgundy crossbody bag - Primark black cut-out boots - Polish local shop black corduroy button-up shirt - Versace floral wrap blouse - Miss Selfridge black crop top - Primark nail polish by Nails Inc. lipstick by Guerlain I wore a ponytail today - which is a rare look on me. Let me know if you like it or not! Hope you enjoyed this post, I definitely loved this outfit and the make-up too. We all had a great day out and I'm sad that uni starts tomorrow again. Also, please check out my latest vlog here ! -Olivia ~26.10.2015~

Autumn Empties (Face, Hair, Body)

Image
Hello everyone and welcome back on the blog! Since I'm so busy lately I don't even have enough time to blog properly, but today I decided it was time again to create some content for you. I actually wanted to film an empties video because I think it is just so much nicer, but until I managed to get this thing started it was already way too dark to film anything. So I decided go write some lines- still better than nothing. It's actually not too many empty products this time, but the boxn is surely full and ready to be emptied.  HAIR I used up my Batiste Eden dry shampoo and it really made me sad because Batiste is so expensive here in Vienna (and also hard to get). I also haven't seen this new scent over here yet, so this is even worse. Over the last few months (from August until now, the end of October) I've been using this about once a week. It helped me not washing my hair every two days on the hot days, but every third day and this was seriously lif...

How I Fill In My Eyebrows

Image
Hello everyone! I have such complicated eyebrows that I basically have to fill them in every day to achieve a nicer shape ( which also makes my whole face look better). Since I also have hooded eyelids, an arched brow helps my face look more lifted and awake I think. The problem is that the first halves of my brows grow quickly and they get pretty wide, whereas the second halves are just a single line of light hair, which in total looks very weird: thick-thin. That's all. For this reason I have to fill in, or I'd already say draw on those parts to not look like I've overplucked my eyebrows or something. They just don't grow there and it's a shame. To fill them in I got myself a beautyuk High Brow Kit from Superdrug, about a year ago I believe. However, only recently I've found a way to make my brows look good/alright. I use the middle shade. I try to focus more on the second halves of the brows, as I already said before, because they ar...

Sebamed Skincare Review

Image
Hello everyone! I finally managed to get a bit of time to write this post, and for today I decided that it was time for a review. Some weeks ago I got some bits from the brand Sebamed   and I immediately started using the products to give you an idea of what they are like and if it's worth trying them out. As you can see from the picture above, I got some cute little samples ( and I also gave 2 to my dad because they were an after shave and after sport shower gel). I got two different shower gels,an every-day hair shampoo, a cream and a body lotion. I didn't use all of them yet but I the ones I did, I quite like. All the washing products are soap free and cleanse delicately. A pH of 5.5 is ideal for our skin, so again, it's used in all of Sebamed's products, which shows that the products are really thought through and professional. I think body lotion is such an important skincare product especially in the colder months because our skin often  gets expo...

My Autumn Essentials | Video

Image
Hello! Today I filmed a quick video where I showed my tips for feeling better during the Autumn-Winter season. As you already know, I'm a real Summer person and I do tend to feel sad and tired throughout the colder months- that's why I do need to find lots of entertainment and distraction from the outside. If you want to see my tips/hacks - check out the video below! :) Now I'm off to Uni and I'm not too happy about leaving my cosy room, because it is really cold and grey outside. But I sadly need to make it. Have a nice day everyone! Thanks for watching! -Olivia ~15.10.2015~

Demmers Teehaus Tea Review

Image
Hello everyone! Most of you will already know that I am a total tea addict. The only thing I drink is basically Earl Grey tea with sugar and some lemon. And I could drink it forever! I do drink other kind of tea too though, if you wonder. And here's what I'm currently sipping! Now, some days ago I kindly got sent some tea samples from the company Demmers Teehaus . If you're ever in Vienna, just visit one of their shops, because they are amazing and I think you'll love it! It's basically heaven for me! I got six different kinds of tea (out of over 300 kinds!) to try and I am so excited! So far I've tried two and am already in love!  Today I'm having Berry Cocktail, which consists of: hibiscus flowers, currants, elderflower and raisins AND it tastes amaaazing!! Such an intense, yet delicate taste. I don't like it when I have to add sugar to fruity teas, and in this case the sweetness is just perfect- which I am so glad about! I used two t...
