Halloween Makeup!

Hi, everyone! Today I thought I would show you my makeup for Halloween. I am not going anywhere special, but I felt inspired and did my makeup. If that's not dedication, I don't know what is haha. I am pretty happy how it came out, although it could've been better. It was my first time doing mask makeup and I am excited to do more looks like this. Hope you like it!

I only used Loreal's gel liner in Black, White pencil by Essence for the outline at the beginning and gold liquid eyeliner by Golden Rose. It took me a long time to do, hopefully I will get better at it. 


Hope you have a great day and a spooky Halloween! See you soon!

DIY Jewelry Holder

Hi, guys! Today I want to share with you my DIY Jewelry Holder that I love so much. It can be very easily personalized and adapted to anyone's liking, so I hope you like it!






So it is very easy to make. You will need:

- A picture frame
- Hooks
- Scrapbooking paper
- Inspirational images

 My frame didn't have the glass on the front so I just stuck the paper onto the "canvas" type of material and then glued that to the frame. My dad helped me with the hooks, make sure you know what you are doing or have some help, just so you don't mess everything up.

Then it's time to stick your pictures or whatever else you want on there. I printed mine on normal paper, but you could be fancier and use real photo paper. It's up to you.

Now just hang your favourite pieces of jewelry on the hooks and enjoy!

I hope you found this helpful! Have a great day!

Top 5 Fall Lipsticks

Hi, everyone! Today I am talking about my top 5 fall lipsticks. Let's get started!


Essence Natural Beauty
GR 113
Rimmel Vintage pink
Miss Sporty Pink Lady
Rimmel 03
The first one is my Essence lipstick in Natural Beauty. It's a very nice balmy and non drying lipstick. It's a mauve nude shade with a creamy finish.

Next up, Golden Rose lipstick in the colour 113 is such a pretty medium purple shade. It looks gorgeous on the lips and has a creamy finish as well. 

Rimmel Moisture Renew in Vintage Pink is my favourite everyday fall colour I have in my collection. It's a neutral medium pink with a hint of purple in it. 

I love the formula and the colour of the Miss Sporty lipsticks. This one is in the colour Pink Lady and it is a medium creamy pink. It just glides on effortlessly. Unfortunately, they changed the packaging, but I am not sure about the formula. 

Last but not least, we have Kate Moss' lipstick for Rimmel in the colour 03. Beautiful nude shade with a beige undertone and a hint of brown in it.

Thanks for reading, have a nice day!

What I Ate Wednesday!

Hi, everyone! Another What I ate Wednesday coming at you today. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. 



This is my most favourite breakfast to have! It's basically scrambled eggs with veggies. I used corn, carrots, green peppers, onion, white brine cheese and 2 eggs. I had half a tomato as well.


For lunch, I had this dish with meatballs and tomato sauce. I obviously had hummus with veggies (Surprise, Surprise!!). This time I put green onion and parsley in my homemade hummus and I am loving it!


Dinner time! Let me just tell you how much I love this "pizza". I made pizza, but used a tortilla instead of traditional dough. It turned out AMAZING! My toppings are pickles, ham, corn (can you tell I love corn?), green peppers, cheese and tomato sauce. I also ate a little bit of cabbage. Awesome! 

So yeah, this is what I ate a few days back, hope you guys like these kinds of posts. I know I love creating them. 

I hope you have a great day!!!

7 Deadly Sins of Beauty TAG

Hi, guys! I am really late to this tag, but I decided to do it, since the questions are so fun! Let's get started.

1. GREED: What is your most inexpensive beauty item? What is your most expensive?

My most inexpensive makeup item are my Golden Rose lipsticks. They have a very wide variety of colours and textures and don't break the bank. I might to a seperate review on them.

The most expensive is my Inglot palette. I really like these eyeshadows, they have a very buttery texture and are insanely pigmented. I don't even need a primer underneath them, their lasting power is that good. The price of the single shadows is really reasonable as well, it just adds up for the 10 of them + the palette.


2. WRATH: That beauty products do you have a love/hate relationship with? What product has been the hardest to get?

I have a major love/hate relationship with lipgloss. I find it either super sticky, or just slimy and my hair always clings to my lips. I love how it looks on, but I can't stand it.

The hardest to get was hands donw my Art Deco eyeshadow base. I went to the store at least 5 times and asked about it, but it was always sold out. Such a pain!




3. GLUTTONY: What are your most delicious beauty products?

My Nivea lipbalms and the Miss Sporty lipsticks ... Sometimes I want to bite into them. The Miss Sporty lipsticks smell like watermellon, YUM.

4. SLOTH: What beauty product do you neglect, due to laziness?
Highlighter. I never seem to remember to put it on and it's such a shame, because I love how it looks on the face! I need the Mary-Lou, that's on my wishlist. Maybe I would wear that all the time, who knows.

5. PRIDE: What beauty product gives you the most self confidence?
If I need to prioritize, I would say mascara for sure! But in general, I feel like a million bucks when I have winged eyeliner on and it looks really good. It makes me almost feel powerful.

6. LUST: What attributes do you find most attractive in the oposite sex?
I am all about the look in the person's eyes. I don't know how to explain myself, but some people look like they smile with their eyes or just have a very cheerful and positive vibe around them, that makes me melt. I love it.

7. ENVY: What items would you most likely receive as a gift?
An eyeshadow palette would be an awesome gift! I love experimenting and creating new looks, it's so fun for me!

DIY Cheap "White board"

Hello, everyone! I have been meaning to write this post for quite some time, but now this time has come! I am going to share with you a very easy way of putting together your own white board.


You may ask yourselves: Why does she need to make a white board and not just buy it?
I have a few reasons to do so. First off, I don't have enough room for a real one and seconly, I just like making my own stuff.

It's so easy. You need a picture frame, white paper and some markers.


It is so convenient, because it can stay by itself, it's a picture frame. You can choose exactly how big you want it and you can personalise it. I was thinking of drawing something on the white sheet of paper, but I didn't want it to take up a lot of room.


I think it looks super nice and it's not permanent. You can always put a picture in the frame and change it's purpose multiple times. I put the "white board" in a drawer when I don't use it.

Easy Healthy Cookies

Hi, guys! Today I decided to share with you guys my favourite healthy and DELICIOUS cookies. I love making them and everyone in my family loves them. You can always change up the ingredients, I just literally put whatever I feel like eating that day. So here's the recipe.


That day I used:
-a cup of crushed almonds (I made almond milk and used the rest fot the cookies)
-half a cup of fine oats, soaked in a little bit of water
-some dried plums
-2 bananas
So basically, I mashed the bananas and added the almonds, oats and plums. I mixed it all up and then formed the cookies, put them in the oven for 10-15 minutes and that's IT! It's so easy, yet affective.



Here are some other ingredients you can add:
-cinnamon
-a little bit of milk
-any dried/fresh fruit
-raisins
-eggs

Tips On Drinking More Water

Hi, guys! Today I thought I would share with you the tips I have came up with after trying to drink more water for so long. I have never been a person, who gets thirsty .. like ever, so it was very hard for me to make myself drink more water. I would just like to say that I don't drink fizzy drinks (ever) anymore, so this is not a blog post on that topic. However, I can write one someday.
There is lemon in the water, that's why it looks weird.

Tip #1
I would very strongly suggest you get a cute glass bottle, that you will actually remember to use. Ever since I got my flower water bottle, drinking water has become fun and kind of exciting. Also, get a straw! That way you drink more and faster.

Tip #2
Make sure you keep water close to you, so you see it all the time. This will really remind you to actually drink it.

Tip #3
You can put fruit, lemon or orange juice in your water to make it more flavourful, if you don't like it plain.

Tip #4
Another thing I have heard of is to drink water every hour of the day. This really wouldn't work for me though, because I would always forget and setting an alarm isn't necessarily the best idea in my opinion.

Tip #5
Set goals for the day. You don't have to start drinking 2 liters right away. Maybe start gradually drinking more, for example, drink one more glass every day until you reach your goal. Don't be too hard on yourself though.

Tip #6
Maybe keep some notes on how much water you have drunk throughout the day, just so you could see and have an idea how much you actually drink. It will make you feel guilty if you don't reach your goal, too.

Tip #7
Always drink a glass of water in the morning. This is going to wake you up and get your metabolism going.

Tip #8
Having a ROUTINE is key! For example, I have half a liter of water while I am at school and I dring 1 liter out of my cute glass bottle at home. This way I know exactly how much I drink and I don't have to worry about anything.

So these are all of my tips. I hope this post was helpful and I will talk to you very soon!

Have a great day!

Maybelline Color Tattoo Review

Hello, everyone! Today I am doing a review on my Maybelline Color Tattoos. I have 3 shades I wanna share with you. I hope this post is helpful.





1. Packaging 
The Color Tattoos have a simple sleek packaging. The jar is made out of glass and the lid stays pretty secure, so the product doesn't dry out. 

2. Application
These cream shadows are very soft and apply beautifully. They are not patchy or dry, the application is even. 

3.Colour intensity
Exellent colour intensity. The eyeshadows are very pigmented, without having to lawyer or build up the product. 

Permanent Taupe, On and On bronze, Pink Gold
4. Staying Power 
Again, the staying power is out of this world. It's hard for me to remove the swatches with soap and water. It is no joke! 

5. Pros & Cons

PROS:
- Intense colour
- Long wearing
- Easy to work with
- Doesn't dry out in the jar
- Creamy texture
- Affordable
- Easy to find

CONS:
- Non cruelty free 
- Limited shade range in Bulgaria

6. Price: 5 Euro

7. Rating: 8/10

What I Ate Wednesday

Hello! It's What I Ate Wednesday time! I hope you enjoy.


For breakfast I had my usual oatmeal with honey and a cup of camomile tea. How cute is that mug?!?!? I love it. 


I made myself a delicious salad for lunch. I put raw pepper, carrot, cucumber, tomato, sweet corn, lots of parsley and chinese cabbage in it. I couldn't even eat it all, it was that filling.


And lastly for dinner, I chopped up cucumber and carrots, dipped them in homemade hummus, had some mushrooms and my mum's potato dish. 

Okay, so that is it! I hope you guys liked my post, I will see you tomorrow. 

Have a great day!

Most Worn Things TAG // Summer Edition

Today I am doing the Most worn things TAG - Summer Edition. Let's get started!

1. My most worn lip product is the Rimmel Kate lipstick in the colour 16. It's a pinky coral shade, which would really compliment a more tanned skin, but I like it anyway, even though I am as pale as you can get. The texture is smooth and easy to apply, but moisturized lips are a must, since this lipstick is more on the matte/creamy side.

2. The earrings I have been wearing the most this summer are these ones from Tally Weijl, which came in a pack of 15 pairs. The thing I love the most about them is that they are very feminine and delicate.

3. This top from H&M has been a staple for me this past summer. It's light weight and super cute. I like how it ties on the front; it has very short sleeves, too. I wear it with jean shorts, skirts and coloured pants (when it's a little chilly outside). It's awesome!

4. For most worn nail polish, I have 2 - a nude colour and a mint one. I couldn't choose between them, because I wear both of them a ton. The nude is Essie's Sand Tropez, which I am head over heels in love with! The brush is big and awesome, the consistency is nice and opaque. The mint shade is Flormar's 424 and I love it as well.

5. I got the nude flats from Lidl for really cheap and I haven't stopped wearing them ever since. They go with everything and are a no-brainer for me. I can wear them dressed up or down and it still works. Great pair of shoes!

6. The tulip necklace is a present from my mother and I really like it. It is (again!) a very delicate and fine piece of jewelry. This is the type I mostly wear, that's why I am featuring it in this post.

7. Fruttini's Coconut and Banana body lotion is very nice. It has a very light weight texture and it sinks in pretty fast. It has a very pleasant smell, one of the biggest reasons I use it.

8. Last but not least, we have my most worn bag. I chose this small over the shoulder black bag, because it's super versatile and can be worn lots of different ways. It was a gift, so I don't know where it's from, but it's just a basic purse, so a similar thing can be found anywhere.

Street Chic to Fitness Freak

Hi, everyone! Today I wanted to share with you my tips on makeup you could easily tone down from day to day to workout appropriate. I thought this would be nice, since a lot of people like to put some makeup on, when they go out, but have to go to the gym later.

I am also going to share my general workout makeup tips. I know most people don't like wearing makeup while they work out (that counts for me as well), but I believe this post might help some of you. It's very good for dance classes or aerobics, too.




Easy day time makeup

This is the makeup look I came up with for day time. I put on some concealer and powder on the face with a little bit of bronzer for definition. I did my brows using eyeshadow and defined my eyes with a thin winged eyeliner and some mascara. This simple look was spiced up with a bright lipstick. I am showing 2 options - a coral and a magenta lipstick. 


Workout Makeup Tips:

- Put a minimal amount of face makeup, only concealer where you need it.

- Powder well, but don't cake it up. If you put too much powder on, your face will start to look even worse once you sweat, but make sure you mattify the skin.

- Apply very thin lawyers ot makeup to the face to avoid cakeyness and transfer.

- Avoid putting makeup on your forehead and cheeks unless you really need it, because this is where people would sweat the most. If you use a towel, you would wipe the makeup off onto it.

- Waterproof mascara and eyeliner are a must, unless you don't have any problems with smudging.

- Long lasting natural looking brows! I use powder, but pencils or waterproof eyebrow gels would do the job, too.

- Moisturized lips are a MUST for me

- I always apply a matte nude eyeshadow to my lids to add a little bit of coverage.

Okay, so this is my little blog post on this topic. I hope you enjoyed it or learned something new. Have a great day!
