WHICH HAIR COLOUR LOOKS BEST ON ME??

Everytime I want to change something about my looks, I always go for a new haircolour. Not cut, trim or highlights, but the COLOUR! Hair colours always compliments your look and change your apperance. It makes your eyes stand out. I cut and colour my own hair. And when I am at my local drugstore that sells hair colours I never know what to buy - ash tone or rich, golden shade. 

What suits me best??

You should always choose haircolour according to your skintone. It should never be more then two shades lighter or darker then your natural hair colour. There are three kinds of skintone: warm, cool and neutral. Here are some tricks to help you discover which group you belong to.

1. Check your wrist veins on a natural light. If they turn green you are warm, if they are blue you are cool, and if they are green and blue you are considered neutral.

2. Undertone. If your undertone is yellow you are warm, and if it is pink you are cool.

3. Jewlery. If gold jewlery suits you better you are warm, and if that is silver you are considered cool. If you look good in gold and silver you are a true neutral.

Now that you know which group you belong, we can talk about shades. I am going to tell you a few shades that compliments warm undertone and few that compliments cool undertone.

Warm: rich brown, cinamon, honey, yellow, orange-coppery, reddish tones, chesnuts, chocolate brown...

Cool: all ash shades, platinum blonde, white...

Neutral: you are lucky and can do both.

SUMMER NAILS WITH ESSENCE NAIL STAMP SET

Hello my pretty readers,

how are you all doing? I hope everyone has a lovely summer, I sure have.

So in todays blog post I will show you my summer nails design, which I made with essence stamp set. It was super easy and fun to do. You can purchase this set from a local drugstore for about 2-3 dollars. On each plate you have several different designs, and you can do them with colours of your own choice. Every nailpolish will work, so sky is the limit for you. For my bright bold nails I decided firts to paint them orange and then stamp them with silver design all over the nail. I think it turned out super nice and girly.

Ooh, and just a quick note; orange nailpolish will make you look super tan :)

 Do you like my design? Let me know in the comments, so I can get some nail inspiration ideas from you.

THE SKIN REGIME BOOT CAMP FOR BEAUTIFUL SKIN*

Hello beauties. Recently I was contacted by Dana Ramos, woman with gorgeous skin, and amazing tips on getting beautiful skin. She asked me if I wanted to read her book Boot Camp for beautiful skin. And because I am always looking for great skin products to heal my acne and hyperpigmentation, I said yes. So she sent me her book and a sample size 30% glycolic peel. 

First I read the book, which is written very humoristic and well explaining. It is easy to read, even for me, and English is not my native language.  I liked it a lot. What I love about this, is that she does not require expensive products, opposite...she swears on drugstore products. It is all about the ingredients, not the packaging, price and name. That attracted my attention, because I don't want to spend all my money for skin care products which I don't even know if they work for me.

In the book are all the instructions how to use the peel, so please read book before using it.

How to use the glycolic peel?
Fisr you need to start with fresh face and preapare your skin with rubbing alcohol. I applied it on my face, avoiding areas around your eyes and mouth. Then I put the peel on my face. It burned, I won't lie. But that is common, plus it was not so bad. I leave this on my face for a few minutes, and then rinse it off with warm water. Instantly my skin was so nice, smooth, it reduced my redness, my blackheads on my forehead were gone. Amazing! And all this happened just after one peel.  After I applied moisturizer, and that is it. Nothing hard.

Since I was that impressed with just one peel, I think I am going to do the whole boot camp, and take you along on my journey. I will also post pictures, before, after. 

Are you interesting of me doing that? 

If you want beautiful skin for cheap, visit Dana's website TheSkinRegime.com. The book also cointains a lot of informations, including make up, peels for rest of your body, tanning, how to maintain your skin if you don't have problematic skin...

SEVEN DEADLY SINS OF BEAUTY TAG

I was tagged by the lovely Grace Simona to do this.

The rules of the seven deadly sins of beauty tag

1) Follow and link up the person who tagged you
2) Answer the questions on greed, wrath, gluttony, sloth, pride, lust and envy.
3) Tag as many people as you wish! Be sure to let them know!
4) Let the person who tagged you know that you did the tag by linking up in the comments!

                                 Greed- what is your most expensive beauty item?

I went through my whole make up collection, closet, and it has to be my hair dryer. It is from Babyliss ipro 2200 and it is amazing. It dries my hair super quick and I could no live withouth it. I can straight my hair with it too, so that is a plus. I bougt it in my local drugstore and it was around 70 €, $ 90, £ 59.

Wrath- which item do you have a love/hate relationship with?

L'oreal infallible foundation. Sometimes I love the colour and the coverage that it gives me, but sometimes my face is pink and I look terrible.

Gluttony- what brand makes up most of your make-up collection?

I would have to decide between maybelline and essence. Overall it has to be essence. I buy essence because it is super cheap, great quality and I just want their products. It is not my favourite make-up brand.

Sloth- which product do you neglect the most due to laziness?

Eyeshadow. I love bright colour, smokey look, but most of the times it is just eyeliner and mascara for my eye make-up.

Pride- which product gives you the most confidence?

Withouth a doubt it has to be mascara. I always wear mascara, always. I can skip foundation, bronzer, lipstick, but not mascara. It is my must have for every day.

Lust- which item is at the top of your beauty wish list?

YSL Rouge Volupte lipstick #2 Sensual Silk. I love the colour so much, and the consistancy looks so nice. I hope I will be able to try it one day.

Envy- which make up product/look is great on others but not yourself?

Smokey eye. I have really small eyelids and eyes, so I am not able to do a lot of dark colour in my crease. I normally put dark eyeshadow in the outer corner to make my eyes look bigger.
