Hei, jeg heter Karen, og jeg liker lange turer rundt Chanel tellere.

7 things I’ve Been Loving Lately (Makeup as well as Non-Makeup Related)

considering that it’s Thursday as well as all (edit: it’s just random; there’s no rational reason), I’m wondering what’s been making you want to hold your pearls with delight.

Here are seven things that have been providing me major smiles lately.

ANNONSE

1. indeed to Coconut Ultra Light Spray Body lotion for extremely dry Skin ($9.99)

Otherwise understood as “Lotion for the Laziest of Alligator People.” My skin is so dry that it makes alligator skin look moisturized! however this stuff absolutely takes care of it (everywhere except on my Fred Flinstone feet, where I requirement something thicker). It leaves my skin feeling soft, however not greasy, as well as smelling faintly of coconut.

How moisturizing is it?

Wait — to be honest, that’s difficult to do since the water is truly pouring down, so hold on to your bikini bottoms! (File this under “Life lessons discovered the difficult Way.”)

Anyway, tangent.

I keep this stuff in my shower as well as spray it on my skin after toweling off (while I’m still in the shower). It’s simple to work in, as well as the bottle easily works when you hold it upside-down, which is incredibly cool. I suggest spraying it into your palm first, as well as then massaging it into your arms as well as legs. That method you don’t inadvertently spray the lotion around your floors as well as walls.

2. indeed to Grapefruit Basil liquid Hand Soap ($3.99)

And considering that we’re on the subject of stating indeed to things, I likewise like the brand’s indeed To’s Grapefruit Basil liquid Hand Soap ($3.99). It makes quick work of any type of dirt/gunk/oils/tabby hairs on my paws as well as works fast. It’s likewise non-drying (yay!) as well as lightly scented with grapefruit, which is one of my preferred things to eat.

Incidentally, often I feel like I’m alone in this, since everybody around me detests the taste of grapefruit… Are you into it? Grapefruit 4-EVA is all I have to say.

3. The bkr 1-L bottle in Sugar ($42)

This bkr water bottle! I’ve only been utilizing it for a week, however I’m freaking prepared to put a sound on it. I bring this thing everywhere!

Granted, it’s a great deal heavier than a back-to-basics, common plastic water bottle, however I don’t mind. I kinda like the solid glass heft. (The thick rubber sleeve must ideally keep it from cracking if it’s ever dropped from a affordable height… I’ll you understand about that when/if it ever happens.)

The manage on the cap likewise feels juuuuuust right. I don’t understand if the designers conducted any type of ergonomic studies or anything, however this bottle feels excellent in my hand.

I likewise like mouth since it’s not as well huge/wide, as well as with every other water bottle I’ve owned, I end up spilling water around my tee shirt all the time.

Doesn’t occur with this. I keep trying to discover an reason to get one of the smaller ones, as well (I like the ones with the heart design) however yeah…one is sufficient for now.

I hope they make the liter-sized ones with a heart on it soon. phone call me crazy (go on!), however I vow my water tastes much better when I drink it from this bottle.

Yes, I understand that’s impossible.

4. These Flamingo Vans ($55)

I’ve come to accept that I have absolutely no time for boring-@ss shoes. If my toes need to be confined, I want them confined in the most fascinating method possible, as well as this pair of mint eco-friendly as well as flamingo Vans? holy FREAKING CRAP. Jeg liker dem.

5. golden women Lego

Let’s state that again: “Golden women Lego.”

Jeg vet, ikke sant!? YAAAAAAS! Lego runs a program called Lego concepts where fans submit concepts for future products, as well as somebody (WHO IS clearly A GENIUS!!!) submitted a set influenced by Rose, Blanche, Dorothy as well as Sophia.

They even recreated the sets as well as scenes from the show! now that’s some hardcore golden women love.

I truly hope this really pertains to fruition as well as goes on sale since I would be the very first person in line to get hold of it.

Which golden woman are you, by the way? I’m mainly Sophia, with a bit of increased sprinkled in.

6. Byredo Parfums Gypsy Water Eau de Parfum ($145 for a 1.7-oz. spray bottle)

Byredo Parfums Gypsy Water Eau de Parfum ($145 for a 1.7-oz. spray bottle), offered now at Neiman Marcus
I’ve been reaching for Gypsy Water nearly every other day considering that I started using it last October.

There need to be countless wonderful fruity floral fragrances on the market, as well as often I just want something absolutely different. Gypsy Water is totally different. I haven’t caught any type of whiffs of it on other people, like exactly how I’lJeg tar ofte en whiff av en kvinnes parfyme som hun går forbi så vel som å være alt, “Oh, det er engel,” eller “Homegirl bruker Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue i dag.” Ikke når har jeg gått av en dame, så vel som luktet sigøyner vann.

Offisielt, det starter med notater av bergamot, sitron, pepper, enebær bær; åpner i røkelse, vil ha nåler og orris; Deretter bosetter seg i Amber, Vanilje og Sandalwood. Uoffisielt tror jeg det lukter som eventyr, individualitet, tarm og solskinn!

7. Lysfarger på lavere vannlinjer

Har du noen gang på deg beige liner på dine nedre lash linjer? Det er en gammel teknikk for å få øynene til å se større ut som fungerer av slags å få det til å se ut som det er mye mer område rundt de hvite i øynene dine.

Jeg tror ikke jeg forklarte det ekstremt bra, men likevel, det gjør øynene dine ser større ut så vel som mye mer våken.

Jeg forstår det virker litt galne bukser, men det virker virkelig! Jeg har gjort det mye i det siste med lyse linjer.

The NYX dream Catcher palette in golden Horizons hopes To broaden Your Horizons on Baked Neutral Eyeshadow

wearing the NYX dream Catcher palette in golden Horizons ($15) on my eyes
Technically, Mercury doesn’t enter retrograde until June 7 (I know this because I’m all over Susan Miller’s Astrology zone like sweat on Daryl Dixon’s biceps), but man, oh man! — it feels like Mercury is already retrograding all over mah face!

I don’t know why, but for the past couple days, Murphy’s law has ruled my makeup life with an iron fist. Anything that can go wrong with my eye makeup has gone wrong with my eye makeup. uneven liner, botched blending, cray-cray clumpy lashes — you name it. It’s been a hot mess, so I’ve decided to stick to nudes and neutrals until whatever this is passes.

ANNONSE

Until then, I’ll just chill with neutral palettes like the NYX dream Catcher palette in golden Horizons.

NYX golden Horizons
This $15 cutie is one of three limited edition NYX dream Catcher palettes released earlier this year. Each one comes with 10 baked eyeshadows and its own personal outlook on neutrals.

Compared to Dusk Til Dawn, the other dream Catcher palette in my collection, golden Horizons is heavier in the matte and satin departments, as opposed to shimmer.

I think it’s a little tamer because its shadows aren’t as pigmented as the ones in Dusk Til Dawn, but that could be a good thing if you don’t want to deal with blending drama, and/or have a legitimate fear of your lids looking like an unfinished painting from Picasso’s Cubism period (#thestruggleisreal).

Playing it safe with mellow neutrals today…
That’s hourglass Ambient blush in Diffused heat on my cheeks, and hourglass Panoramic Lip Pencil in Muse topped with benefit Chachabalm on my lips

I see this one being good for gals (or guys, of course) who just want a little definition on their lids without taking on too much pigment or veering outside the box.

It’s like the easy listening station of eye makeup palettes (KOIT… Light rock, less talk!), and wear time clocks in at around 6-7 hours for me.

If you’re interested, it’s BOGO right now at Ulta.

I’m just sayin’.

Yup, El Hub is on a fishing kick, and he’s been trying to get me onboard. He even got me my own fishing pole last week, right before he took me to my very first bait and tackle store.

After shielding my eyes while I ran past the live bait containers (OMG, WORMS!), I ran into this really amazing display with all kinds of bright colors and…GLITTER!

These color combos would make a really amazing mani, wouldn’t they?

In sadder news, I’ve been rereading a lot of Maya Angelou quotes today (RIP). My favorite one: “If you are always trying to be normal, you will never know how incredible you can be.”

VERKTØY:

Fur Brightening lotion — I’m utilizing a shade that matches my fur as well as has a bit bit of sheen, however no glitter, considering that shine can highlight flaws in the fur. I likewise selected something with an easy-to-blend, creamy lotion texture.

Makeup Blending Sponge — Smooth as well as blend the lotion with a soft makeup blending sponge to keep it from looking patchy, however don’t fail to remember to dampen it first.
I know, I understand — water sucks! however dampening the sponge very first will sheer down the product, ensuring that it looks as natural as possible.

Black Kohl Pencil — Black kohl pencils are a must-have in any type of cat’s makeup bag. I like creamy pencils, since then I don’t have to tug at my lash as well as water lines. Plus, they’re simple to smudge.

Angled eyeliner clean — An angled clean assists to soften as well as smooth the edges of your liner.

Coral cream blush — When I’m in a rush, a coral cream blush is a must. I can blend it quickly utilizing just my paws, as well as it brightens my look without taking it over the top.

STEPS:

Start by applying the fur brightening lotion to your cheeks, forehead, nose as well as chin with your paws. go in the natural direction of your fur, rather than going against the grain, to smooth the hairs as well as keep them all pointing in the ideal direction.

Gently press a moist makeup blending sponge into your fur to blend the fur brightener. For the most natural look, fade the protection as you step out. You want the biggest concentration of product near the center of your face.

Emphasize your feline eyes by lining your lash as well as water lines with a black kohl pencil. try to get as close to the roots of your fur as possible, in between the private fur hairs.

Soften the edges with an angled eyeliner brush, as well as draw an captivating feline eye flick.

For an additional pop of color, blend a coral cream blush on your cheeks with your paws.

Available in 13 shades, the new $48 NARS all the time luminous Powder foundation delivers precisely that, as well as it’s a revelation, particularly when it’s used with a wet sponge (I utilize a beauty Blender).

It’s the stuff of my most radiant, soft matte surface dreams (in somewhat tricky packaging).

The light shades
My huge fear with powder foundations is that they’ll look thick as well as heavy on my combination skin, since many of them do, however NARS all the time luminous does not. The fine, silky powder formula looks as well as feels lightweight, while the surface falls somewhere between dewy as well as matte.

Coverage varieties from light to medium, depending upon exactly how you apply them. When I utilize a dry sponge or brush, the protection is at its lightest. The formula does even out my skin tone a little, however a few of the natural redness in my cheeks still peeks through, as well as I can still see my freckles. used this way, the look is super casual.

The medium shades
The medium-dark shades
Using a sponge or beauty Blender to apply them kicks up the protection a notch. For the greatest protection (medium), I like to apply a 50/50 mix of Stromboli as well as Tahoe, since together they’re a better match to my skin tone than any type of of the 13 private shades, with a wet beauty Blender. That keeps my freckles on the down-low as well as makes sure that no red on my cheeks sneaks through.

I’m definitely partial to applying these with the wet sponge (I utilize a patting as well as rolling motion). I believe that method the look is more natural.

These don’t take long to apply, either. I can have a full deal with of foundation applied, mixed as well as performed in 3-4 minutes.

Swatches of all 13 shades

More thoughts on NARS all the time luminous Powder foundation broad Spectrum SPF24

A versatile coverage. protection varieties from light to medium, depending upon exactly how they’re applied. I prefer applying them with a wet sponge for medium coverage, as well as since I believe it looks the most natural.

Beskyttelse mot solen. since these contain SPF 24, I was worried they’d look cool under a flash, however I don’t see any type of of that frustrating white cast in my photography, which is great.

Sweet radiate control. all the time luminous Powder does a great task of keeping the oil in inspect on my oily-dry combination skin, as well as it lasts. I only begin to see shiny areas at around the 7-8 hour mark.

Lovin’ the long-lasting oil-free formula. It’s non-comedogenic as well as free of parabens, alcohol, fragrance as well as talc.

Decent shade variety (although I don’t see a perfect match for me). Not the widest choice (maybe they’ll add more), however there are 13 shades, with a nice variety for different undertones.

That middle pan there has a tendency to flip as well as flop back as well as forth…
My biggest complaint is with the packaging. The powder pan flips as well as flops around whenever I open as well as close the compact, as well as it’s a bit annoying. If I fail to remember myself as well as whip it open as well fast, bit pieces of powder break off around the edges of the pan.

Before as well as after
Overall, though, I truly such as this foundation. With a soft as well as lovely, natural-looking matte finish, lovely protection as well as an easy-to-use formula, it’s a excellent option if you’re looking for light-to-medium coverage.

Don’t fail to remember that wet sponge, though. It’s totes key.

Girly, glam and absolutely wearable…with a little extra sass thrown in for good measure (because one never knows when one will get the urge to start trouble).

The 20 eyeshadows? Dude, you could do so lots of different eye looks with this palette! roughly three quarters of them are neutrals…but not the kind of neutrals that make me want to hit the snooze button. among them are mattes, metallics and glitters in a range of warm and cool tones.

And just to keep things interesting, there are also splashes of pink, mauve, taupe and gold.

Swatches from the left: Turtle Dove, dream On, After Hours, Fawned of You and Knockout
Paper Roses, kindness Is Free, Mauvelous, Be You and secret Lovers

Heaven, shiny Happy, Honey Pot, Don’t clear up and Girly

I know I’ll be able do a lot with these neutrals, and there’s enough variety within the palette to be able to finish lots of different eye looks without having to incorporate eyeshadows from other palettes.

In the bottom row, too faced also grouped together several jewel-toned shimmers. All fun, bright and bold shades.

Totally Fetch, live It Up, too Glam, Head Over Heels and chocolate Moon
One of my favorites here is too Glam, the emerald green shade. It must be best for pops of color on the lids.

Just as an FYI, though, when I wear these brights, I find that it’s better for me to do my eye makeup first, as I detect a small amount of fallout (very little).

Blush in sweet Pink, blush in Papa Don’t Peach, Bronzer in chocolate Soleil and Highlighter in inner Light
I also like the blushes, bronzer, highlighter and mascara, but the brushes, eh. I think they’re cute and fine for quick touchups, but I wouldn’t depend on them every day. They’re minis, and they feel a little awkward in my hands…

Wearing too Glam (lids), chocolate Moon (outer corner), Fawned mixed with Knockout (crease), dream On (brow bone), shiny delighted (inner half of lids) and live It Up (lower lash line)
Lips are Shimmering spice Spice baby from the too faced Under the Mistletoe holiday set
Wearing the blushes in sweet Pink and Papa Don’t Peach on the apples of my cheeks, chocolate Soleil Bronzer to contour and inner Light Highlighter to highlight

I see this as a good place to start for people new to the too faced line (although long-time too faced palette collectors may already have some of these shades in their makeup drawer) and/or appeal babes trying to find holiday presents to push their makeup agenda on friends who haven’t yet seen the light.

Hår Hvordan: Messig omvendt fransk fletninger

Jeg rue den dagen den elegante, perfekt, ikke-en-hår-out-of-place frisyrer kommer tilbake til mote fordi duuuuude! – Når det skjer, er jeg ganske mye skrudd.

Ta denne rotete omvendt fransk flett, par eksempler. Jeg vet ikke hvorfor, men når jeg bruker det, får jeg vanligvis en eller to komplimenter, og det virker som den messier og crazier det ser ut, jo mye mer gir det et inntrykk.

ANNONSE

Lang levende rotete hår!

Slik gjør jeg det …

Jeg begynner med å prepping mine røtter med et tørt hårspray for å legge til litt løft og volum (her brukte jeg klorane tørr sjampo med nettle for fet hår).

Deretter sprayer jeg en tekstureringsspray fra midten av akselen til endene, og min tur-or-die er Kerastase spray en porter (seriøst det beste!).

Deretter deler jeg håret mitt og gjør en omvendt fransk flettet (som generelt er det samme som en vanlig fransk flett, men i stedet for å trekke håret over for å skape flettet, trekker du den under) på den ene siden, og trygt det med en elastisk hestehaleholder.
Så gjør jeg det samme med den andre siden til den møter den første fletningen. Deretter trekker jeg forsiktig den elastiske av den første fletten og bruker den til å sikre både fletninger sammen på det punktet de møtes.

En rask spritz av en uber-hold hårspray (som Kerastase Laque Noire ekstra sterk hold eller noe lignende) over, og jeg er ferdig.

Klorane tørr sjampo med nettle
Kerastase spray a Porter
Kerastase laque noire ekstra sterk hold

ANNONSE

Jeg elsker hvor lett denne stilen er (tar mindre enn 10 minutter når du får tak i det) og at det ikke krever noen varme styling eller fancy doodads. Pluss, fordi det er målrettet rotete, kan jeg ganske mye la håret gjøre hva det vil, og bare si, “Ja … Jeg indikerte å gjøre det.”
