안녕하세요~

Whattup bubble-butts \(^__~)v
I got a haul coming up... ♡ nomnom~


If you've been a follower of my blog for a while, you know that I'm a HUGE NYX fan - and you'd probably also know that I can't get NYX products in Denmark. I could purchase the items from Nelly.com, but I honestly feel that paying $18 for NYX ie. the Black Label Lipstick (which is only $6 retail in the US) is absolutely INSANE. lol. So yeah, they can keep their overpriced NYX-items to themselves.

I placed my order on PorkDaisy.com on April 16th. and it was all shipped out on April 18th. It took the items approx. 5 days to get here (spite it being Easter holidays in Denmark, yay!) so that's definitely fast! I received all the items this morning along with a nailpolish from a friend...


Order list:
- 1 Single Eyeshadow in "Pure Gold" (128A)
- 2 Round Lipsticks in "Strawberry Milk" and "Circe"
- 1 Slim Eye Pencil in "Black"
- 1 Round Lipgloss in "Sorbet"
- 1 Soft Matte Lip Cream in "Tokyo"

 

I got the Black Label lipstick in "Nude" on eBay (cause Porkdaisy don't carry Black Label on their site yet) and the China Glaze nailpolish in "Sweetheart" from a good friend. I won't go into too much detail on the products now (cause I haven't tried them yet, lol), but do expect a more thorough description of them in my upcoming April 2011 HAM video ^__~


Also, just wanted to say that I'm feeling a lot better now.. Not completely 100% recovered, but at least I don't feel like dying anymore. LOL. Still battling those damn headaches though!

I look retarded - baby, I know~ \(^__~)/ TEE HEE

My thoughts go out to those of you who are still sick.. (ó__Ò)/ FIGHTING~!
I've been drinking 3 liters of pepsi max a day and I've been watching a lot of House M.D. A few nights ago I had to pull out the drugs tho (pain killers and fever reducers! lol), cause I seriously couldn't take it anymore. I haven't been sick since summer last year, so it sucks to ruin my 'statistics' now -__-" Damn.. Anyway, the packages today definitely helped on my mood - along with mommy buying me ice cream! \(^o^) woo~ We were supposed to go to Netto to get Carte d'or ice cream (on sale this week!), but of course our local, stupid Netto had none left -__-" I'm surprised they even had them to begin with (cause they never have anything), but oh well.. We just went to Aldi and got Straciatella special ice cream for me (without fatty acids) and regular vanilla ice cream for her and dad! Eeeeep! ~(^3^)~

HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND Y'ALL!
And a happy Easter to all

MUCH LOVE

I need a f-f-f-fix!

"Doctor, Doctor Feel Good
Come make me feel real' good!"
~(^__^)~


DAMMN, that song is so goood! That short-haired one is a cutie, btw! ^__~ She makes me wanna ruffle her hair! lol.. *ruffles hair*


Anyway.. HEY GUYS 
I missed youuuuu~


I've been sick for the past few days, so the desire to blog has been down low and it still kinda is.. Headaches, nausea, fever, dizziness. And I've been SOOO tired, you won't believe it. On top of that my blood sugar has been playing me for a fool, going down so low I thought I was gonna die. So yeah, I'm not exactly feeling like a princess these days. Woke up today with the usual massive headache, some stomach problems and now - to add to the already annoying amount of symptoms - a sore throat. GREAT.. Juuuuust great.

Well timed arrived a little care package from a special friend! YAY! Let's see what she got me~


- 1 Revlon Active foundation (a back-up of my favorite, woo!)
- 2 MAC Pan Shadows in "Parfait Amour" and "Knights Divine"
- 1 MAC Viva Glam Gaga II Lipstick
- 1 Monki plushie
- and a HUGE bag of candy! Nom!

Aaaand here are photos + swatches - hope you like them.. \(^__~)/

 
And of course ''Woodwinked'' is supposed to say Beauty Marked. -__-"
I really am sick, huh? Thanks to Yinnie for pointing it out ^__~ ♡

I'm gonna go back to being sick, miserable and almost out of pepsi.. or well.. ''almost''.. I have 8 bottles left. LOL. What can I say? I panic early, alright! Hehehehe..

I ordered a few NYX items to cheer myself up.. which is lame of me, cause shipping from the US takes FOREVER -__-" And I hate waiting.. lol. I also got my hands on the ''discontinued'' Sunny bronzer from N.Y.C.. May I just share with y'all that it is NOT discontinued. It just got a new name "Smooth Skin"-bronzer something. It's on their website HERE. ^__^v you're welcome~ TEE HEE.. I'll do posts on my stuff when it arrives some time next year week..

Did y'all check out my VIDEO yet? Did u sub? I hope you did! (Ò__ó)/ -threatens-

I hope you're all doing way better than I am.. Enjoy your spring break!
MUCH LOVE!

e.l.f. haul (review), FOTD and ego spam

Warning: this is gonna get picture heavy and long. lol - sorrehhh~

WHY HELLO THERE \(^__^')
Another entry coming up..
First I wanna thank you all for the overwhelming support towards my "debut" on Youtube. I used to have vlogs on there a few years ago, but I deleted my old account along with all the videos - so in terms of my new channel being all about the makeup, I feel like a newbie. Haha~ Anyway, thank you all SO SO SO much! And thanks to the few of you who decided to subscribe to my upcoming, lame videos! Hehehe \(^__~) Love you guys! To those of you who haven't seen the video or subscribed yet? Go to my YOUTUBE CHANNEL and check it out! The video already had almost 150 views and I got over 20 subbies! Haha.. I had 19 subbies to begin with (before the video), so I guess that's not a huge improvement. But at least almost 150 people took the time to watch my stupid video - and I truly appreciate it! \(^3^)/ ♡
 
Now to my haul..
I placed an order on eyeslipsface.co.uk, using their free shipping coupon code on the 4th of April. The package was shipped out on April 6th and I received it on the 13th.. or 12th - not sure. So it took approximately a week's time to arrive (it usually takes 4-10 days to get to me, so it's pretty decent). I've heard quite a few terrible stories coming from users of the US site, but I never had any problems with the UK site, so I've always been pretty satisfied with the whole ordering-process.

I ordered 4 things: (as things are a bit tight lately)
Studio Blush "Tickled Pink"
Studio Blush/Bronze Duo
Nail Polish "Desert Haze"
Dramatic Eyelash Kit
1. Studio Blush "Ticked Pink" + Studio Blush/Bronzer Duo
Let's talk about the blush.. Now, this blush - and the duo for that matter - have been absolutely RAVED about for a long time. I've been wanting to try the blush in "Tickled Pink" out for just as long, so I was super excited to check out the color payoff of both of these items. But the blush... not impressed. The pigmentation is pretty sheer, it basically just gives a slight sheen of color and I prefer my blushes a bit more vibrant. It's easy to work with though.
The Duo is the complete opposite - the both sides are SUPER pigmented, very smooth and soft with a slight sparkle. The blush seems a bit easier to work with than the bronzer, and you need to be very careful when dabbing your brush into the bronzer. I feel that the product is very finely milled and therefore your brush picks up a LOT of it. If you're not careful, it's gonna be a huge, muddy patch on your face - and that ain't pretty. Just sayin'..
2. Dramatic Lash Kit
These lashes are VERY dramatic. I never have to trim my lashes - and so I never do that - but I should definitely have trimmed these a bit from the outer edges. They're VERY long, VERY curly and VERY dramatic. They look absolutely insane on the eyes, if you don't apply them very precisely (which can be difficult if you're new to lashes), but the band is soft and easy to work with. They don't look so bad in the photo, but I guess, I just found a lucky angle. LOL. I'm wearing these in my FIRST YOUTUBE video (the intro) that I uploaded the other day.

3. Nail Polish "Desert Haze"
Just like every other swatch on the e.l.f. website, this color does NOT match the swatch shown. It's WAYYY prettier! I LOVE this color so so so much! It's the perfect cream grayish nude with brown undertones.. Sadly I think that my polish came with a defective/damaged brush, cause it shed' tiny little hairs onto my application which made it uneven.. It's also quite obviously a cheap nail polish - the color applies nice and all, but the 'feel' of the polish is forever 'wet' and plastic-y (like those water based polishes that you can just peel right off).. It feels as if the polish never really dries and 'sets' onto your nail, so you can easily knick marks and stuff into the color even with a topcoat. I LOVE the color though (and so does my friend, Sarah! Hehe)
Also my friend Vi-Vi-Vi (whose birthday we celebrated recently!) made me a shelf for my radiator! how cool is that?? She painted it white and stuck sheep with Pepsi Max logos on it! Hahahah! So cool! I love it!

Now to some ego spamming (cause I can. lol) I wanted to wear a bit of makeup today, as my hair looks like crap and we got family dinner tonight at Kebab House downtown to celebrate my brother's 17th birthday.
 
 
 
I would've shown you some photos of baby kittens btw! I went to my friend Sarah's (and her mom's) house with my mom yesterday to drop off a birth box/bed for their dog to borrow (their dog is due in about 10 days! WOO! \(^3^)). We had lunch there and spent a LONG time talking about the paranormal, about being a Star Child and how people react to it etc. We also got to see their 2-weeks old kittens and my mom put a stamp on the forehead of one of the red babies. Haha! She wants him so bad.. My dad's gonna freak the frack up if she brings him home.. but DANNGGG he's so cute! The kittens could see a bit and they still got a lot of work to do with the balance/walking thing. But yeah, Momma Kitty (whose name is actually Uffe (which makes no sense as she's female and Uffe is a Danish male name, LOL)) came up and I didn't wanna scare her nor the kittens with flash, so I ended up not taking photos of them. They were sooo darn cute though! If I go to help them with their puppies (birth, night shifts etc.), I'll try to snap photos for you all!
Ahh, I guess that's it!
Thanks for reading you guys - and sorry about this being ANOTHER long-ass entry. -hits self- So typical of me.. but yeah, I'll try to get better on that one, as I know I got some laaaazy readers out there \(^__~) it's okay if you only look at photos, though.. Haha! I do that too sometimes..

Anyway! Love you all! And I'll talk to you all later!
MUCH LOVE

My elf order came in today, so I'm trying out my new lashes.. They look a bit insane, huh?

Did I mention that I'm MADLY obsessed with 4minute's "HUH" and "Mirror Mirror" songs? D:
Terrible, I tell you.. Terrible..

ANYWAY! That's about it for now..
I'll be doing a post on the elf haul later on ^^v

Express Delivery from London

I wanted to thank you all for your sweet messages and comments on my NYX HD Studio Foundation review. My skin is slowly recovering the breakout - even though it wasn't a MASSIVE breakout with pimples all over, it was still quite scary to realize, that only 3½ hours of wear can actually break you out. I used a clean brush and had just gotten out of the shower when I applied it onto my moisturizer (which I always let sink in for about 10-15 minutes before applying makeup), so I'm really not sure what went on there.. ALSO, my eyes felt better shortly after I washed it off \(^o^) So I'm doing pretty well now! ♡


Oh yeahhhh! As a response to my latest swap package, Yinnie sent me a box of goodies. YAY! She and I have known eachother for YEARS now - yet we still haven't met.. is that weird? lol. We've both grown and matured over time, which is kind of cool to look back at - and I definitely enjoy our exchanges of boxes filled with goodies! I still need to hook her up with some traditional Danish pastry though.. \(^3^) 


List of items:
Chocolates and a bag of Maltesers
Brown Eyed Girls album 'Sound-G'
MAC Pro 4-pan palette
MAC "Beauty Marked" pan shadow (I fear that we can't get those here.. pan shadows that is)
Dara (2ne1) style earrings
Jung Yong Hwa (CNBLUE) style pick necklace
LUSH facial cleanser, body scrub, lip scrub and shower gel

 
 
 

I absolutely LOVE everything!
Go show Yinnie some love
RIGHT HERE
- RIGHT NOW. lol



Another friend and I also celebrated a friend's birthday - Mølfe and Vi-Vi-Vi came over Wednesday afternoon as it was Vi-Vi-Vi's birthday, so of course I had to go all out and buy her a little smiley-face-cake. Haha! She loved the cake (we all did, cause it was yummehhh!) and after eating and talking for way too long, we had dinner and then dug in to all the goodies that we'd each accumulated for the event. It was a pretty casual couple of days, but we had a blast!

 
 

I'll probably be hanging with Vi-Vi-Vi again next week - we'll see : D She's throwing a birthday party on April 30th, so I'm expecting (maybe even expectED) to go to her house a few days in advance with ALL my makeup.. I'll be pimping up her face with my epic skillz on the big day ; D haha! I kid.. but she talked about me doing her makeup for the party, so I guess I'll be doing that.. if her mom's home - I probably will be doing hers too. Haha!

 


To end all this... here are some random photos. LOL
I think that pigeon took over my balcony.. it pretty much always sits there. It went back and forth on the railings (?) for almost 15 minutes.. straaange animal. Haha!


And then.. NOTW. This is the photo of my left hand, which turned out pretty OK. I'm right-handed, so trust me when I tell you, that my right hand nailwork looks like a kid's doing. LOL

HAVE A GOOD ONE, y'all!
If any of you know - please tell me where to get the pan shadows here in Denmark.. I have NO idea where to get them, if I can even get them here at all. -__-" ahh, wouldn't that be just my luck? LOL

Alright.. that's it!
Thanks for reading - and continuously commenting and leaving feedback for me..
YOU guys.. are AWESOME!

Btw.. do you like what I did with the sidebar there? LOL. I kinda like it..

TTYL!
MUCH LOVE
