November Goodiebox: Beauty Secrets

November Goodiebox: Beauty Secrets

Another month, another (really late) Goodiebox post! This months theme was beauty secrets, and contained some tools and multi functions products. Let’s dive in and see what I got. First up is a glass nail file. I’ve used a metal nail file for several years, so I’m pretty stoked to try this out. Personally I would have chosen another colour than pink (though they call it “peach” in the little brochure that came with the box), but it’s not like…

New Makeup Station Using IKEA’s Alex Drawer

New Makeup Station Using IKEA’s Alex Drawer

For the longest time – basically since we moved here 6 months ago – my makeup station has been the biggest mess. Everything laid out in the open on my table (which is so not easy to keep clean and tidy). I did have a few organizing things with drawers, but the space in front of them ended up getting cluttered, and then it would be too much of a hassle to open them. Also I ended up using the same products…

October Goodiebox: 5 Beauty Picks by Magasin

October Goodiebox: 5 Beauty Picks by Magasin

So I signed up for a beauty/makeup subscription box called Goodiebox, which is basically the only subscription box you can get here in Denmark. The subscription costs 159 kr per month (about $23 USD). This is the first “real” box I got. See, I signed up in the beginning of October, but still got the September box (which I found a bit weird, but oh well). Anyways, the October box is done in collaboration with Magasin, which is a Danish…

Tarte and Hourglass – Different sides of the spectrum for blush texture

Tarte and Hourglass – Different sides of the spectrum for blush texture

Hello there! Long time no see 🙂 . Here in Denmark we have a dull, cloudy day (what else is new) – but you know what’s not dull? Pretty packaging! And some of the most pretty packaging I have seen in a long time, comes from Hourglass. A sleek, reflective case with a beautiful product inside is what you can expect from them. Another bonus is that the case closes with a satisfying “pop” 🙂 I don’t think I have…

‘Murica: Corn dogs, amazing burgers, beautiful views, and much more.

‘Murica: Corn dogs, amazing burgers, beautiful views, and much more.

Our summer vacation this year was a 2½ week trip to the states – specifically San Francisco where my parents moved to last year. Kim had been there before, as a teenager, so he could recognize surprisingly much in the area (I was impressed – I can barely remember the vacations my family took me on as a child). We rented a car for a week, so we could take trip to South Lake Tahoe. I don’t think I have…

My First NYX Haul!

My First NYX Haul!

Recently a chain called Matas (which is basically like a Boots/drugstore) in Denmark started carrying NYX products, so I finally had a chance to get my hands on some of their stuff! Before this it was only really available online in some specialty store, since NYX themselves doesn’t ship internationally (story of my life – it sucks to live in a small European country since noone ships here unless you’re willing to pay large sums in shipping fees). Having the…

This time last year: Honeymoon!

This time last year: Honeymoon!

At the end of June/start July, Kim and I went on our honeymoon. We took a roadtrip to Sweden – first stop was Norrköbing. Generally speaking, Norrköbing is a pretty boring city. The only reason we were there was to go to the Bråvalla Festival, which is close to the city. We had a day ticket so we could go see Sabaton, which is an amazing, Swedish, Power/heavy metal band. We spent most of the day at the festival site,…

June Favourites: MAC, Netflix and more

Another month has come and gone , and another favourites post is here. June was overall a great month.

The food we got was amazing, so we will difinately be going there again at another time. We were so full after the 3 course dinner, that we just laid on the…

This Time Last Year: Getting Married!

This Time Last Year: Getting Married!

On June 6th 2015, Kim and I tied the knot! Holy balls, I felt like such an adult. We had been planning this day for several months (with the incredible help of my wonderful mother – the planning would have been much more stressful without her) and now it was finally here! We were so incredibly lucky with the weather – several weeks before (and several after) it was cloudy, cold and/or raining, but on our wedding day it was…

May favorites

May favorites

May is over, and thus my very first “favorites” post is here! I don’t have that many things, mostly due to not buying a lot a makeup this month, but let’s start with my makeup favorites. Makeup favorites Of course two things from my only haul this month is represented here 🙂 . The ARTDECO Bronzing Glow Blusher, is just what it says – it’s a blush with both bronzer and glow to it. It’s nicely balanced between the pink and…
