The Stroke of Midnight Mascara: Review

As I mentioned, I have finally found my holy grail mascara. I knew the Kardashian Beauty line was good, but I wasn't expecting such amazing results. Here are my lashes before applying mascara: Or anything else for that matter. I usually don't do anything to them, I don't even curl them. Here they are after one coat of the Stroke of Midnight mascara: As you can see, they definitely look longer, but there isn't such a dramatic effect. There aren't any clumps either. Let's see what happens after the second layer of mascara: Now they definitely look much longer and there still aren't clumps. It is a lengthening mascara, so of course it lacks in the volume department. I do prefer long beautiful lashes though, so I love it.  Here are some different angles to see...

Trying to Keep Up With the Kardashians

I couldn't resist the feelunique sale and since the Kardashian Beauty line is something I've had my eye on for quite a while, that's what caught my attention. These are the items I finally decided on: I received them today, so I can't write any reviews, only my first impressions. The first thing, and probably one of the most popular Kardashian Beauty products is the Honey Stick lip gloss. The packaging is really simple, but still pretty. It does actually smell like honey, but isn't sticky. I would say it's quite gentle on the lips and even mosturizing. It's also pretty long lasting. The colour I got it in is Natural Honey, because I don't have enough nude lip products. The next thing I got is the Side Long Glance - eyeshadow duo and false lashes.  I haven't...

Spin the Bottle

Essie is without a doubt my favourite nail polish brand. Their polishes are very long-lasting, dry quickly and not to mention all the cute names they are given.  I never intended to talk about just one nail polish, but this one was so outstanding that I had to. Spin the Bottle is a perfect nude - a colour I think everyone should own. I don't think there's anything special about the formula, but what impressed me so much is how long it lasts. These photos are taken a few minutes ago, which makes a week after painting my nails. There are still no chips and no peeling. All it took was two coats to get this colour and effect. For the index and ring finger I used a mixture of these two, but the rose gold one from Flormar is something I'm very disappointed with - it takes...

Learning To Like Myself

I have had this post saved as a draft for exactly a month, because what I'm going to talk about is an issue I'm still struggling with. I wanted to post it at the right time, when I'm feeling positive enough, because otherwise it would just be very hypocritical of me. The past few years have been hard regarding my self-confidence. I have changed so much, my weight has fluctuated and I have tried so hard to become a better (looking) version of myself. Now I see the ways in which I was wrong more clearly and have finally started to accept my appearance as it is. Of course, I still don't like some body parts of mine and could use a bit more motivation to work out, but my attitude has changed. Focusing on your looks, to me, seems very vain and silly, because, as cliche as it may sound, that's...

An Evening On The Town

I wore a H&M top from Beyonce's collection from last year and a H&M maxi skirt. I got the top in XS, but it's a bit too small for me now for obvious reasons haha :) My brother showing off his football skills.   The fountains next to the town hall are a sight to visit at night. This is what happens when I get cravings. I had a late dinner and I can't wait to sleep right no...

Here are some more photos of my new hair colour. I really love it, even though the hue wasn't what I was going for.  P.S. It's currently half past 10 in the morning and I'm going to the dentist in an hour, so wish me luc...
