Drugstore shopping online! oh my god…

Hi guys.
Recently I promised my boyfriend to get my act together about drugstore shopping online.. If you have been to Norway or are from Norway you know that the prices of “cheap” makeup in the UK and USA are not so cheap here.

Here is an example:
The L’oreal True Match foundation costs 12.95 $ on drugstore.com.. On vita.no (which is an drugstore in Norway sort of) it costs 179 Norwegian kroner! Which is 23.07 $ ! That is a huge difference! So when I found this store, that ships to Norway for free!! I was really happy! the site is http://www.xtras.co.uk ! The prices are GREAT and who does not love free shipping! I have placed two orders from them now, and I have bought from them before, so I know that their products are great. And if you sign up you get a 20% discount code! 😀

By the way, I don’t advertise for them, I just wanted to share this with you!

LOVE/HATE TAG.

I stole this tag from the beautiful Felicia ♥ which has an awesome blog I think you should read! (https://beginnerbeaute.wordpress.com/)

Rules:

  1. Share 10 things you love and 10 you hate
  2. Nominate up to 10 blogs to do the same

Things I love:

  1. My family, boyfriend and friends ♥
  2. Living in Oslo.. It is actually a very nice city! I feel like I have moved to the right place!
  3. Making healthy food! After my lifestyle change I make healthy food all the time!
  4. Working out with my personal trainer
  5. Makeup, my addiction! My boyfriend is so annoyed when I buy 5 new lipsticks every week! haha
  6. Fashion, clothes is my other addiction.. Right now I am obsessed with maxi dresses
  7. My lovely cat which lives with my parents, he is so cute!
  8. Music, I listen to Marilyn Manson, Metallica, Rammstein, Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga mostly 🙂
  9. Tacos, I could eat this every day of the year
  10. Dr. Phil. haha, I love him so much! His faces when he interviews people is priceless!

Things I hate:

  1. People who don’t answer their phones. It is always the same people.. You tell them: “I will call you in about 10 minutes.” And still they don’t answer when you call. So annoying.
  2. People who are late… oh my god! I am always on time, so when you have planned to meet, don’t be 30 minutes late, okay?
  3. People who bring a cart into the store and don’t use it. Seriously, the store is so narrow, and when you bring a cart it should be full when you get to the registry!
  4. People who tell you that they don’t like food when they have not tasted it. My boyfriend does this all the time.. annoying! When I make the food anyway he is so surprised when he likes it.
  5. The weather when you don’t bring an umbrella to work.. This happends ALL the time.. When I don’t have an umbrella in my bag it always rains when I am going home!
  6. Smudged lipstick. Of course the most beautiful lipstick that I own is not waterproof or smudgeproof.
  7. Forgetting my headphones when I have a workout planned. This seriously ruins my whole workout 😦 which brings me to the next:
  8. People who clearly makes LOUD and unnatural noices in the gym. It is so annyoing to listen to: OOOH AAAH when you work out.. people need to stop doing this on purpose..
  9. Children who screams on the bus.. oh my god, you have to listen to this for 20 minutes because they don’t want to be there.. It’s really annyoing when I am tired at 7 am.
  10. People who wear socks in their sandals. I don’t care if it is fashion approved this season, I think it is so UGLY!

Natural makeup look when I am sick!

May favourites!

Decided to do my May favourites tonight. It has been RAINING like crazy today, so I decided to get under a blanket when I got home from work and think about my faves.

DSC_0440

I have two favourite foundations this month. The loreal infallible 24 hours, in the shade vanilla. And MAC mineralize moisture foundation in NC20. I love both of these because I have dry skin. It may become a little bit more oily when the summer arrives, but there is NO sign of summer in Oslo yet…

DSC_0441

For setting my face I have used the NYC smooth skin loose face powder in translucent. This keeps my skin flawless all day. I love the NYX dewy finish setting spray, and I this is my second bottle since april..

DSC_0454

In early May I bought the Anastasia contour kit. I used some time to decide to buy it because it is really expensive, but I have used it every day since I bought it! Love love love the E.l.f contour brush! Amazing brush for the prize! Absolutely a fave!

DSC_0450

For eyebrows I have loved my Anastasia dip brow pomade in medium brown as always! But a new favourite is the NYX controllfreak eyebrow gel! Loves how it holds my brows in place without making them crunchy.

DSC_0456

On my eyes I have loved the Maybelline color tattoo in taupe, so beautiful. I have recently begin looking into waterproof mascaras for summer. The L’oreal Paris Volume Million Lashes excess is an amazing waterproof mascara! The only liner I have been using this month is the Laura Geller eye calligraphy liners. These are so black, just love them.

DSC_0459

For lips I have been using the crap out of my Sephora cream lip stain in 01 Always red. This is my perfect shade of red. But when I want to be more natural I have used the Clarins Instant light lip perfector. This feels so good on the lips.

This is my favourite dress of the month. This dress from Nelly.com is the dress I wore on 17th of may (Norways national day). And I can not believe that this was on SALE for like 8-9 dollars. I think it is so cute! It was really cold but I loved it.

DSC_0314

My favourite person of the month is my lovely boyfriend Martin. ♥ We have so much fun together and we are really in love at the moment 🙂

This month I have been obsessing over the youtube series “Transformations” with James St. James. I love dragqueens and makeup and James is SO funny. I recommend this series! Love Love Love

My E.L.F top products!

Hi guys. Today I am gonna show you my E.L.F top products. I love these products and I use them ALL THE TIME!

20150601_170739-kdcollage

The E.l.f matte lip color! These are so creamy and beautiful! The left shade is nearly nude and the right is tea rose.

DSC_0430

The E.l.f blush pallettes. The left is the blush pallette in dark and the right is the contouring blush & bronzer in st. lucia. These products are very pigmented and I use a light hand with these!

DSC_0436

The E.l.f golden bronzer. Oh my god, this is my favourite bronzer. I am very pale and this works great for me. Leaves your skin looking flawless with a hint of shimmer. I love the glowing look anyway!

DSC_0435

The E.l.f 100 shadows pallette. I actually really like these. I use the light brown and brown shades the most. But if I ever need a bright color I will find it here. These shadows have a bit of fallout, but with a good primer they will stay on my eyes all day!

DSC_0434

The E.l.f HD undereye setting powder and baked blush. I LOVE and can not live without the HD undereye setting powder. I will need to buy a new one soon. And the baked blush in peachy cheeky is my favourite blush.
