Random haul

I have never written about new things I bought. I'm always open to try something new, hope it may be interesting to some of you. :)
Here are things I recently bought:
(some pictures were posted on Twitter, but not everyone follows me there :))

*Diary: I was thinking about getting one for the longest time, because all my ideas are written on random pieces of paper and usually get lost. Today I found this one with the coolest design in Leonardo for 5,90€.
*Revlon Nail enamel in 095 Facets of Fushcia. Black nail varnis with chunky purple-pink glitter. LOVE IT!
*Catrice Liquid Liner in 010 Meeting Joe Black. Never too much eyeliners :P
*Finally found nude eye pencil, because white can sometimes look too harsh. Oriflame Kohl Pencil in Nude.
*Essence Show your feet Gel shoe pads.
*Tank top from New Yorker (4,95€), bought two: black and blue. Because I desperately needed a "normal" tank top :)


*Bought those shoes in Transport for 17 € (75 % discount :))))

*Scarf with rabbits, hats, stars ... I had to get it, because it reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. I love Alice in Wonderland ... and scarves :))
*Subrina Supreme hair color in 46 Golden hazelnut. Colored my hair two days ago, don't really know if I like it or not :D
*This white thing on shorts is Essence Fruity sealing top coat. Used it once, it dries sooooo slowly. Not big fan of it :(
*Shorts from New Yorker. I'm not a skirt fan, I prefer shorts :)
*Purple false eyelashes. Will do a look using them. Very soon :)

*Please, be jealous :P REVLON COLOR BURST LIP BUTTERS! Bought them on Ebay. In 060 Gumdrop and 015 Tutti Frutti. It was love at first sight <3 :)

Bye bye Cellulite

Or at least how to reduce it. You may never get rid of it completely, most of people have it. Even men, but they have less fat cells than women, that's why it's less visible. Even skinny girl have it.
Well, we all know how cellulite looks and that junk food will not help get rid of it. :)
So, I'll just mention some things that probably helped me to reduce cellulite.

1. Long time ago I read that lemonade can help you get rid of cellulite. What I usually do, is to mix one whole bottle of water (1,5 l) with juice from one lemon and drink it during whole day. No sugar! Sugar is no good for your body!


2. Drinking a lot of water help your body to stay hydrated and it helps you with losing weight. Cellulite is fat, water will "wash it away" :). I probably drink 4 liters a day.

3. Eating clean diet. No white sugar, white salt, white flour, no bad fats, noo highly processed foods ...Yes, there is still plenty food to eat, believe me :)

4. Exercise, exercise, exercise. I cannot put this out enough. Exercising helps me with everything - with losing wieght, sculpting my body, therefore losing cellulite ... and the most it helped me with my mentality. When you have a positive body image, weight just drops. Seriously.

5. No anti-cellulite cream will help you if you don't massage areas where you have it. I found this little massage thing-y not so long ago in Kik. I think it was 1 € or a little bit more (not more than 3 €). If I watch a movie (or whatever else I do) I rub it on my legs :D. It's not really time consuming.


6. I have probably tried a lot of anti-cellulite creams, and they can be quite expensive! The one and only treatment I love is this oil from Alverde. I used it last year, I use it this year and I think it helps. It's around 4 €. And no cream will help you if you don't exercise. Together they work magic :)


Don't deprive yourself from having fun because you think you have a lot of cellulite or because you think you're fat. When you start truly loving yourself, other people will fall in love with you, too. Even with cellulite.
And ladies, one more thing. Boys woudn't know about half of our "problems" if we would keep them to ourselves. :) So shhhh. If a boy likes you don't point out your flaws. :)

Summer is almost here!! Hope this helps!

P.S.: I changed my blog layout again. I really loved the previous one, but it was so slow on my computer and had quite some difficulties with it. Hope this one is better. Will probably do some more changes, but for now I'm quite satisfied with it :)

My eyebrows - how I make them look awesome :)

I've got so many compliment on my eyebrows since I started posting pictures of my eye makeup. And I can say I like my eyebrows, too :)
I shape them quite thick, because thick eyebrows make you look younger. Who doesn't want that? :)
I used to shape them quite thin and never used pencil or shadow on them. I think I started coloring my eyebrows last year and I've been doing it ever since. I don't really go out without making them pretty :)


Can you see how thin they were? Yes, I was blondie once :D



This is how they look right now.

Here is what I use to shape:
- baby wipes (or any other damp cloth will work)
- razor thing-y (you can buy these things in any drugstore)
- Un-petroleum jelly (bought it on eBay; I loooove this stuff)


How I fill them:
- Catrice eye brow stylist 030 Brow-n-eyed Peas or
- Catrice Absolute Eye Colour 350 Starlight Expresso
- angled  brush by IsaDora



 
This is how your eyebrows should be shaped.
And it suits any face shape, any colour, any woman ... :)

And I probably did something stupid ... I uploaded (my first) Youtube video on how to shape and fill in my eyebrows.


I have a very bad camera as you may have noticed. :D I hope it's self explainatory enough. Is it even visible? Aaaa, kinda nervous what will people say on my first video :D

I will probably make more videos, if I get positive feedback. :))

I totally forgot about cutting the long eyebrow hair!! Because I already had them cut. Oh, well, I'm not perfect. :D
(Use your spoolie brush (you can clean a mascara wand from an old mascara) and groom them upwards and trim any long hair sticking out of a spoolie with little scissors. There is a lot of videos on Youtube how to do that!)

Hope you like my first video! Will figure out how to film better.My camera kinda washes me out :(

Good night!
