Denne her uge arbejder jeg fra i dag frem til søndag morgen. 2 dagvagter, 2 nattevagter og så en dagvagt igen. Og så har jeg fri til torsdag.. tror jeg nok.. Så bliver nok ikke så meget spændende blogging fra min side :( Men laver skam stadig en NOTD om en 1-2 dages tid.
Kom hjem til ikke bare en, men 2 pakker som skal hentes i morgen på posthuset.. hvilket er totalt åndssvagt når vi har en mellemgang hvor jeg har en seddel hængende hvor der står at pakken gerne må stilles i gangen.. Mongol post.. Altid noget min kæreste er på skoleperiode lige nu så han kan hente det. Ellers ville jeg ikke kunne hente det før på mandag.. så puha lang tid at vente på neglelak :/ Men en pakke fra USA og en fra England. Ved hvad den fra England indeholder men er ikke helt sikker på den fra USA da jeg har været med i en secret santa neglelaks gave ting. Så det kunne i teorien godt være den. Men så tror jeg også der er en anden på vej :P Vi fik risengrød i dag.. Helt hjemmelavet fra bunden(ja ok IK risene men ellers) smagte godt. Og så har jeg også fået min potion risengrød for i år.. Det er bare ikke mig :P
Glædelig mandag aften ;D

This week I’m working from well today until Saturday evening. 2 day shifts. 2 night shifts and then a day/evening shift Saturday :( then I have work of till Thursday I think. So don’t think I will be doing much blogging this week :( But I’ll be doing the NOTD post of course ;) Anyway today when I got home, there were 2 packages waiting for me.. Well in theory, since the stupid mailman just left a note for me to get it at the post office despite the fact that I have a note in our outer hallway where it says it can be left there and I have told like 3 different mailmen that they could just put it there if I weren’t home. So that suck pretty much that I need to get it at the post office. Luckily my boyfriend is going to school at the moment instead of working(a part of his education) so he will go get it for me tomorrow. But if that weren’t the case i wouldn’t be able to get it before Monday.. eeek that’s a long wait for new polishes :P Well i know what one package is from the UK but the other from US could be either my secret Santa package or another one I know is incoming :P We ate some rice porridge, I think its called, for dinner, made from scratch(or well we didn’t make the rice :P) to celebrate 30th of November(its something you eat at Christmas) :P Happy Cyber monday out there(heard it on CNN) :P

Clash of the titans.. or well almost!

I was getting tired of not knowing which polish I have. It came to a point where i just cant remember it anymore :P So made an excel database with them all in. I have some more columns where it says if its glimmer, cream, metallic and etc. And another for NOTD on this blog. So I can keep somewhat track of it. I still know the name of the polish in the head no doubts there :P but cant always remember some of the other stuff. So this is nice and I use it often when I need to find a polish real quickly, and it’s really effective if I need to find a certain color then I can see all of them I have instead of have to look through my bags with the polish in.. And that takes a good time if the one I’m looking for is in the bottom :P In the future I’m gonna put some direct links from the database to the blog so I don’t even need to search it :D Lazy? Oh yes! :D
Any questions? Don’t even hesitate to ask :)

NOTD // Barry M – Mint Green

So this lovely creamy color is been said to be a cheaper alternative to the much hyped Chanel – Jade color. I have no idea of how much the color is similar since I never tried the Jade on my self. So cant say that it really close to the color or what. But since its mint green like the Jade it should be a good dupe no matter what ;) I like it looks blue in some lighting

And the winner is…

I’m sure that we are gonna see some China Glaze there :) Thanks again all for voting this is so much more fun than just me choosing the color that I’m in the mood for :P

Who’s there??

CHINA GLAZE!

China Glaze who?

THE CHINA GLAZE I ORDERED!

I’m pretty super exited right now.. I ordered some CG polishes from a danish “ebay” site not really sure of which it was, could only see a small picture of them and when I got them today and I start to look at them and then see that one of the favorites from the OMG collection is amongst them!! Whaaaat im happy :D I got all 7 bottles for 305 DKR (60 USD) and I really think that’s a bargain considering its almost impossible to get CG here in Denmark. So I defenitely know what I’m gonna be doing this weekend! :D Oh well besides going to the movies in 2 hours :P Have nice (Black)Friday! ;)

Project Fail!

I saw this post at Nihrida’s blog about decoupage on the nails.. so thought I would give it a try since I do decoupage at some rare occasions. She actually made a really nice video tutorial on it see it here and now for Project Fail… :p

So first you take a napkin.
Then you cut it up to get some pieces that fit on the nail
And im sorry i dont have photos of putting in on to the nails but that’s kind of messy
But this is what i ended up with.
And yes of course bubbles as icing on the cake.
:(

So my first attempt to make this failed miserably and I don’t know if it was my materials used or pure bad luck. But Im not temped to try again any time soon.. That’s for sure :P I will leave it to Nihrida to be the creative one (and she does it SO well) Thanks for watching! :D

Max Factor False Lash Effect vs. Fiberwig

Tænkte jeg lige ville give en lille anmeldese af de her to mascaraer når jeg nu alligevel bruger dem :)
Thought I would do a little review of these mascaras when I use them anyways :)
Fiberwig koster 169 kr. (35 USD) / False Lash Effect 129 (25 USD) kr. Hvis du klikker på billedet ovenover kan du på fiberwig se de små fibre og det er dem man skal fordele på vipperne når man tar den på .
If you click on the picture you can see all the small fibers on the Fiberwig mascara and you are suppose to apply and spread that on your lashes when you put it on.

Click picture for details

Jeg kan rigtig godt li den chunky børste som False Lash Effect har synes på en eller anden måde det gør det meget lettere at få mascaraen fordelt ordentligt. Jeg har desværre hverken lange eller tykke vipper så det gør det meget svært for mig at bruge mascara ordentlig. Det kan i også se på de billeder med Fiberwig. Der er et større mellemrum hvor at jeg har meget korte vipper som så er kommet med de andre til en af siderne. Så det betyder jeg skal bruge en der spreder vipperne meget. Og denne her gør det meget godt. I hvert fald i forhold til andre som jeg har prøvet. Konklusion jeg bruger dem som en kombo, men hvis jeg kun skal på job eller lign. kun False Lash Effect ;) Men bruger mest False Lash Effect da den er lidt billgere og jeg har brugt den et længere stykke tid og det er den jeg vender tilbage til hver gang. Tak fordi du læste med og håber det kan bruges til noget :D

I really like the chunky brush that the False Lash Effect has and think that it somehow makes it easier to get the mascara properly on the lashes. I don’t have very long lashes or thick so that makes it hard for me to put mascara on. As you can see on the pictures with Fiberwig. There is a big gap where I have very short lashes, that then clump together with other lashes to one of the sides. So that means I need a mascara that spread the lashes a lot. And actually this does a really decent job at it, compared to many others I have tried at least. Conclusion is that I use them both combined but if I’m only going to work or something like it I only put on False Lash Effect because its a bit cheaper and that I have used it for a while now and I return to it everytime :) Thanks for watching and hope it can be used for something :D I think I got that smizing (you know smiling with my eyes) down pretty good ;D
