EOTD: Undress me too!

Hey you guys! 
Here I am with the first eye of the day with my "Undress me too palette" by MUA. This palette is the second 'nude' palette and I like it a lot, there are so many different looks you can get out of this palette.
I decided to go for something that looks cute, but with a darker edge.

 

Here are the pictures of my look. As you can see, I used beige and light brown, but I darkened up the outer corner of my crease a little bit for more depth and definition. Blend, blend, blend, done! 
Of course I put on some eyeliner!


Products used:
  • MUA eyeshadow palette "Undress me too"
  • Essence Get Big Lashes mascara
  • Essence liquid eyeliner


Thanks for reading! Have a good day!

My all time favourite make-up palettes

Hello everyone!
A little while ago I was talking to someone about my favourite make-up palettes that I'd recommend and I noticed I haven't done a post like this in a while (or maybe not ever). So today, I want to show you my favourite make-up palettes. I will link the reviews of each make-up palette (that I have reviewed) in this post, so you can read all about my opinion if you'd like.

Of course, my Nude 'Tude make-up palette by The Balm. This palette is amazing! Not only the quality and pigmentation of the eyeshadows, but just the design of the palette. Who wouldn't love a pin-up girl palette?! I've had this for nearly a year now and I still love it and use it a lot. It has been featured in many of my posts!
You can find my review on it here!


The "To die for" palette by Essence is my favourite neutral drugstore palette ever. I recommend this to people who ask me for a cheap but good quality palette all the time. I still use my palette a lot, especially on work days or days when I don't have time to play around with my make-up!


Then there are of course my two ELF colour palettes.
The one on the left is the 144 neutral palette and the one on the right is the 144 colours palette. These palettes have every colour you could ever want and so I use them very often. Not only for new looks, but I also use them for make-up jobs.

My reviews on both palettes can be found here:
Elf bright palette
Elf neutral palette


This palette is my summer love. I got it in April when I was in Prague with school and I've been using it at least twice a week ever since.
The colours are bright, lovely, and well pigmented as always. Read more about it here.


Next, I'm also a big fan of the two palettes by MUA that I got recently. The one in the white packaging is called "Undress me too" and the palette in the black packaging is called "Undressed". Nice colours, good pigmentation, very affordable.
They are considered to be the cheap dupes of the Urban Decay Naked Palettes.

Weekly Diary

Hello you guys!

My update is a little bit late today, because I just arrived home after a long night!
This week has been quite busy, because both me and my sister celebrated our 18th birthday, and we both organised a party.

Let's start at the beginning of the week. I went shopping a little bit because at the end of the sales, they even give discounts on shoes and cute little scarfs so I got a few of those. They were almost for free, happy me!
I actually didn't have to go to work so I spent the night at my sister and her boyfriends house. We had a lovely little movie night. 

After that, we started preparing for our birthday and the parties!


On Friday, I turned 18. 18. It's so weird. I'm 18.
My mom got us a biiiig breakfeast (see what I did there?) with lots of yummy stuff and after that I spent the day doing things I like!


We also went out to celebrate and the next morning we had to wake up early to get ready for my sister's birthday party - a barbecue! We had put up balloons before, but they all broke due to the heat  so we started over again...


One of my good friends gave me a birthday present and I just loved it so much, I had to show you! This is actually a portrait of  me, it's a drawing of one of my Facebook profile pictures. I thought it was so cute! It's a really nice talent to have!


I'm having a little party myself next week and I had my friend draw on my name tags as well! It's really quite special, don't you think? It's nice and personal.


That's it for this week! I hope you're having a really good day today!

Claire's hair tools

Happy Saturday!
How are you doing?
I normally never talk about hair on this blog, simply because I'm not good at hair things. I put it in a ponytail or sometimes I put it in a bun, but lately I've been using some hair tools that I want to talk to you about.
They are so good, I can't keep them from you!


The hair tools that I use are from Claire's. Claire's is a little store that has all sorts hair tools, hair flowers, jewellry,...
It's the place where I get all my hair flowers and hair tools from and I just wanted to recommend it to all of you!
The hair flower in my hair in this first picture is by H&M, but the bun is by Claire's.

I also got a vintage roll for that perfect 1940's look.
Of course they have a lot more than this, and it's all for a fairly good price! I'm very very happy with all the hair tools, I love them. It doesn't take me a lot of time and effort (miracle!), and it looks very good!


Thanks for reading!
Have a lovely day!

Happy birthday to me!

Hi you guys!
Today is such an exciting day!
Aside from the fact that it's Friday (yay!), it's also my birthday- well, mine and my sister's birthday, we're twins-!
Me and my sister are turning 18 today! I am so so happy and excited, but on the other hand, I'm also terrified and I don't know what this year is going to bring me!


For now, I'm just going to enjoy the ride! Time for me to open up my presents (and hand out a few of my own)!
I hope you will all have a lovely day!
Smile!
