E.l.f. Haul!

Posted by rijaH – May 22, 2010

Et lille bitte køb fra e.l.f. nu da de havde fri fragt :) Jeg har købt en deres elements compacts hvor man selv kan mikse og matche farver til læberne eller øjnene :) Og så en masse Lipgloss :D Sorry at jeg ikke lige kan give et preview på læberne.. men glemte solcreme i onsdags og det har resulteret i mindre udslæt omkring munden :( Men det her giver da en nogenlunde ide om hvordan det ser ud :)

Tiny E.l.f. haul :) Sorry I cant show it on the lips but I have a terrible sunburn :( Forgot the sunscreen :(

Happy B-day…

to meee :)

I dag bliver jeg 25+ ;) Og i aften skal jeg på Bakken og fejre det med dejligt selskab og god mad. Og i stedet for en lak i dag, så tænkte jeg at smide nogen billeder op af mine neglelakke. Der er blevet udvidet lidt siden min sidste post :P Hmm nå kan så ik lige finde den sidste post der…  anyways… videre til billederne :P Det ser måske ud af meget, men når de står op i skufferne så fylder de altså kun 3 i stedet for 5, dog mangler mine behandling/under/overlakke, dem har jeg en 15+ af. Har ikke lige talt dem for nylig men mener der er en 120-130 stykker i alt og jeg får 3 mere med posten i dag :D Så hvis du keder dig må du da gerne tælle dem :P Håber I har en dejlig dag og som I kan se er vejret jo forrygende, så igen i år har jeg været en meget artig pige(selvfølgelig) :D og tusind TAK fordi i læser med :)

I have been good girl, sun is shining and going out to celebrate it tonight :D Instead of a mani I am flashing my stash.. ;D Have a nice day!

e.l.f. – Mod Mauve

And the last elf polish this time around. A rather strange color, cant really put my finger on it… is it red? Brown?
One thing is for sure: I LIKE IT :D What do you think about it? :)

e.l.f. – FuChsia

Posted by rijaH – April 11, 2010

Gorgeous color :D Applied really well, good coverage and the color seems to be very fresh. Think this might be a potential toenail color for the summer ;D

e.l.f. – Fluorescent Pink

One of the new e.l.f. colors I got a few weeks back :) This looked really nice after a few coats and I am quite happy about the color :) Hope you all have a great weekend :)

Essiiiiiie + prize

Posted by rijaH – December 1, 2009

Nå men kæresten var jo nede og hente mine pakker og den ene var Beautybay.com som indeholdte lidt gaver til min kæreste, svigermor og lidt til mig selv ;) Den anden var fra en blog giveaway som jeg vandt hos Pam fra Nail-E-Glance :D Nogen rigtig fine ting. Glæder mig især til at prøve det her teeth whitening strips fra Listerine. Siden jeg holdte op med at ryge for 2 år siden har jeg tænkt på at få bleget det sidste gule væk nemlig, så det er jo en god mulighed for at prøve her :D Fra beautybay.com var lakkene jeg fik fra Essie var Lollipop, Mint Candy Apple og Rock Candy fra deres vinter 09 kollektion, samt en 3-way lak og så ikke mindst Baby Cakes det er en som jeg har ville ha fingrene i for lang tid siden men kunne ikke finde den nogen steder.. Så røg jeg på beautybay og så var den der! :D så den glæder jeg mig meget til at prøve :) Nå ja og så var min kæreste nede og få pengene tilbage for halskæden han gav mig, jeg kunne rigtig godt li den, men den hang fast i mit hår hele tiden :( så nu har jeg et tilgodebevis derned til.. Så må vi se hvad jeg kan finde på i stedet :D

♥♥♥

So the boyfriend was down at the post office today and got my 2 packages that were waiting. One was from Beautybay.com with some presents for him and mom-in-law and something for me :D The other one was the prize from the giveaway that Pam at Nail-E-Glance had.. Huuge package :D And some very lovely stuff in there. Really looking forward to try the teeth whitening stuff since I considered doing something like this at a point after I quit smoking 2 years ago, so lets hope it will get them really nice :D Also had a Revlon polish that seems to be a really nude color, so cant wait to try that either :D And then there’s some stuff from elf and some lotions, really nice prize :D Thanks so much for the package Pam!
From beautybay.com i got the winter collection with Lollipop, Mint Candy Apple and Rock Candy. Only minis but still nice :D and a 3 way glaze. The lonesome cowboy polish at the right is Baby Cakes which is a polish I really had lemming for like a year… around that at least :P Havent been able to find it anywhere so when it showed up on beautybay.com it must have been a sign :D Really looking forward to trying it! Oh and then my boyfriend was down and returned my necklace I got for our 3 years anniversary because it kept getting some of my hair stuck in it, so now i have some store credit so have to figure out on whats its gonna be used on :D

Big box!
Thanks for the card :D
Lots of goodies :)

Then & Now… a different NOTD

Posted by rijaH – September 26, 2009

I saw a similar post on another nail blog some time ago, I’m sorry I cant remember which. And that made me look at some old photos from when I started blogging until today. And I must say i have improved my polishing skills.. quite a bit ;) I can now make a fresh mani that is not all over my cuticles in about 5-10 minutes.. As to before it took me(If it were to be just a bit nice) about half to a full hour(maybe sometimes even more :o).

So lets see one of the first on the blog

This is if I have to say myself.. awful when i look at it now.. To much of my hand on the picture and polish all over the place.
Although I have never been that bad at putting it on I have never been anywhere near what I see on Scrangie, Vampy Varnish and all the other “pro nailers” out there. Have to be honest I couldn’t even figure out how they could make the manis so nice. Buuut somehow as I’m getting better at putting on polish it stays inside the lines.. so to speak ;) I also used that trick of putting nailoil around the edges but it didn’t really work for me. So I just got a steadier hand which is nice now ;)

This I did yesterday in about 7-8 mins. (not counting the drying time ofc.)
Barry M – Limited Edition Pink (don’t really have a name I think)

So to conclude.. i guess practice makes perfect or at least better…. :P
I would love to see some of starter pictures of the nailblogs out there.. Would be fun ;D

Other “fun” facts:

This was my nailcollection in march 2009
Not much there ^^

And this is all my polishes today September 2009
I made a little circle with my Barry M’s :D And i guess its not so hard to guess which color is my favorite ;)

And this is where i store them

The small polkadot bag can hold exactly 12 Barry M’s so i usually take that with me if im going somewhere for a longer period.
I know its not the worlds largest collection, but its so hard to find the good brands in Denmark, have to order them home from US and it can be so damn expensive. So i get my more expensive brands through Nailmail.se(this is such a great concept btw, subscription to nailpolish, sent in the mail to you.. whats not to love? :D).

I was a nail biter until very recently. :o ye I know shocking aint it? :P but somehow when I got more in to polish I just stopped.. have no idea how, guess having some pretty nails was more appealing to me then flossy short nails.

I cut my nail when I think they get to long. I don’t like too long nails… not on me at least.. maybe because I have so chubby fingers.. haha ;D

And I think thats enough with the facts :P

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Masser af pink og rød! :D
