Here’s what you need

Som i kan se har jeg allerede lagt min foundation og lavet mine bryn, hvis disse steps er interessante for jer klik her. Til det her look skal i bruge produkterne på billedet, selvfølgelig kan man bruge nogle af de ting man allerede har i brug derhjemme men dette er ihvertfald de ting jeg har brugt. Hvert produkt kan shoppes under de forskellige steps nedenfor – god fornøjelse!

english: So as you can see I already applied foundation and done my eyebrows, if you would like to see how I do this – take a look here. For this look you will need all the products in the photo above, of course you can use whatever you have at home – but this is what I have used to achieve this Christmas look. There is links for everything underneath every step – enjoy!

Step 1

When I apply eyeshadow I like to have a white or flesh toned base so the other colors have a even colored surface to rest on. For this look, all the eyeshadows will be from the Modern Renaissance pallet by Anastasia Beverly Hills and the color I am using as my base is the flesh toned color “tempera”. I like to apply this step with my fingers cause then I can really melt it into my eyelid with the warmth from my hand to create the best possible base.

Here using:
Eyeshadow pallet / Modern Renaissance by Anastasia Beverly Hills (shop here)

Step 2

Going into my crease with the color “buon fresco”, a warm lilac with undertones of taupe. This will be our transition color as our next step is a bit more of a bold color, we need something like “buon fresco” to compliment it but also to be our “blender”.

Here using:
Eyeshadow pallet / Modern Renaissance by Anastasia Beverly Hills, brush included (shop here)

Step 3

Our bold Christmas red “red ochre” is going to be our statement color on the lid. Here you will be happy that you blended well in step 2 as these two colors will need to come together as one. I like to use a fluffy blending brush for this, try Mac 217, it’s iconic! Use “red ochre” only on the outer corner of the eyes.

Here using:
Eyeshadow pallet / Modern Renaissance by Anastasia Beverly Hills (shop here), Brush / Mac 217 blending brush (shop here)

Step 4

Now to brighten up the eyes, grab the beautiful highlight color “vermeer” and place it on the center of the lid. Work your way into the corner of the eye and don’t be afraid to place a little under the corner of the eye as well. The brighter the better. Blend until you are happy with the way it looks.

Here using:
Eyeshadow pallet / Modern Renaissance by Anastasia Beverly Hills, brush included (shop here)

Step 5

I like to apply my concealer after I am done playing with my eyeshadows so I can clean up any fall outs. I am quite messy when applying makeup – am I the only one? Dot along the eyes, around the nose and if you need it – apply some to the chin.

Here using:
Concealer / Remedy pen in “wake up call” by Marc Jacobs (shop here)

Step 6

Setting my concealer with BB powder from L‘oréal Paris, I love to roughly smear out my concealer and then blending it, together with the powder, with the beauty blender. It’s kinda like fast baking!

Here using:
Powder / BB powder in “light” by L’oréal Paris (shop here)

Step 7

This highlighter is just YUM! Use it on the top of your cheek bones and if you can’t get enough, just a little on the bridge of your nose and on your cupids bow. I only used it as shown in the photo because there is so much going on all ready and I didn’t want to over do it. But usually I am for highlighter allllll over!

Here using:
Highlighter / Creamy touch in “707” by Nilens Jord (shop here)

Step 8

Catliner is essential for a holiday look, I used a liquid liner from L’oréal Paris with just a touch of gold – it’s perfect for any party makeup. Apply mascara, and don’t worry if you make a mess, just clean it up and blend your shadow over it. Problem solved!

Here using:
Liquid liner / Ultra precision super liner in “black gold” by L’oréal Paris (available in Matas), Mascara / Volume million lashes fatale by L’oréal Paris (shop here)

Step 9

Haha it looks like I ate a big sugar donut in the second photo, but don’t worry it’s just powder. For this look I choose a deep red with blue undertones for a colder look. I love the warm Christmas red, it’s a beautiful lip color but this colder red compliments the eyeshadow combination perfectly. I set the lipstick with the same powder I used under my eyes, if you want a mat finish just brush the powder off and voila! But if you want it more creamy look to your lips just apply another layer of lipstick after setting it with powder. Lasts for hours.

Here using:
Lipstick / Color sensational in “divine wine 975” by Maybelline (shop here), Powder / BB powder in “light” by L’oréal Paris (shop here)

Step 10

Last but not least put a smile on your face and voila! I hope you enjoyed this holiday look and that you will have fun creating your own!

Dette lille sæt fra Origins er en super gave hvis du har en rigtig party veninde eller du selv er en.

english: To all my beauties who love a bold lip and some lashes! In this photo there is a little bit of everything, something for the hair, the face and for going out! I absolutely adore the little clutch from Marc Jacobs, once you have removed the lipsticks and the packaging on the inside you can use it with a little Christmas outfit. Genius! Also remember, on a month like this where there is a lot of parties and we have been wearing a lot of makeup it’s important to mask. Give your skin some rest – so a little mask set from Origins is a great gift both to your party animal girl friends or yourself!

TOP 5 BEAUTY FAVORITES NOVEMBER

Beauty, Top 5

Location: Copenhagen
Photos taken with Canon 7D mark II

Med et lidt mere hverdags fokus end normalt, præsentere jeg hermed denne måneds beauty favoritter. Lidt tidligere end jeg plejer men det er fordi bloggen er helt pakket i December så der var ikke plads og jeg synes ikke i skulle snydes! Hermed nogle af de ting jeg har testet og fiflet lidt med i løbet af måneden. Jeg håber i kan lide det! BTW hvor spændte er vi lige på at Sugarbearhair endelig er til at få i DK?? Find ud af hvor nedenfor! Dejlig uge fortsat venner!

english: With a slight more everyday focus than usual I here by present this months beauty favorites. A little bit earlier than usual but December on the blog is packed so there simply wasn’t room. Here are a some of the things I have been testing this month, I hope you like it! BTW how exciting is it that Sugarbearhair is finally available in DK? Find out where to get them below. Enjoy the rest of the week folks!

1. Magasin du Nord, Shower cream
I love having pretty things in my shower, don’t you? I love this packing, so scandi and cool – big thumbs up from me. The product is a mild scented shower cream thats perfect for everyday use. Doesn’t dry you out, smells wonderful and it has a great price. PLUS it took me forever to use a whole tube! Find it here.

2. Trines Wardrobe, Lip balm
A really nice, thick lip balm that just works in the winter. It really coats your lips and makes them look and feel protected. A great product based on argan oil for super soft lips. I love it for my flaky winter smackers. Shop the product series in Matas.

3. Beaute Pacifique, Cleansing foam
Soft, gentle and no nonsens. Designed for all skintypes, this foam is great, easy to use and a nice way to clean the skin. I use it in the shower twice a week. Theres nothing fancy about it and you know what? I kinda love that. It does it’s job without being to harsh, it just cleanses. Find it here.

4. Kerastace, Ciment thermique (travel size)
Kerastace is a brand that I hold very dear. When I was a little girl, my mom took me to the hair dresser she always used Kerastace in my hair and the smell and the feel from the products was very special to me. All the products were standing there on the shelves in the salon in a beautiful color scheme, just smelling beautifully. To me it was a very dreamy world. So today when I apply Kerastace to my hair it brings me back and instantly makes me smile. They have so many great products and this Ciment thermique styling creme is just another one, comes in a box with two other travel sizes from the same series. Try it, you won’t regret it. Find it here.

5. Sugarbearhair, Hair vitamins
We all know this one am I right? They have such an awesome instagram packed with celebs and beautiful girls using their products. So they must work right? Well I am in the process of finding out, so far I absolutely love them but I will check in with you again mid januar. Hoping for some awesome results! Find them here (they ship to DK now, YAY!)

TOP 5 BEAUTY FAVORITES OCTOBER

Beauty, Top 5

Location: Copenhagen
Photos taken with Canon 7D mark II

I denne måned har jeg haft fokus på forskellige produkter som gør mig eller min hud glad. En lækker neglelak, musthave ansigts produkter, noget godt at dufte til og en smuk kosmetikpung. Jeg håber i vil nyde denne omgang beauty favoritter.

english: This month I focused on products that either make me or my skin happy. A nice nail polish, some musthave skin products, something nice to smell and a beautiful beauty bag. I hope you like this round of beauty favorites.

1. Exuviance, Masque, Rejuvenating treatment masque
(shop at clinic)
I love Exuviance products, so well tested and it really “works”. They are though, a little tricky to get ones hands on as they are only available through a clinic. But it’s good because it’s very important to get the products that are exactly right for you. This gel mask is based on AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) which is very effective so it should only be used once a week. Do yourself a favor and book an appointment with an Exuviance clinic. Enjoy your new skin!

2. Rituals, Scented candle, Ritual of sakura
(shop here)
Not really something you put on your body, eat or put on your face. BUT pampering yourself (in any way) is also a way to feel beautiful and when you feel beautiful you become more beautiful. I love a good scented candle and this one from Rituals burns up to 50 hours.

3. L’oréal Paris, Nailpolish, 672 gris décadent
(shop here)
A good deep grey polish is sophisticated yet unexpected and is perfect for this time of year. I like how it’s almost the same color as the starry night.

4. Kiehls, Concentrate, Midnight recovery
(shop here)
Very famous and for a reason! It’s all the way through a great product that every person should have in their bathroom cabinet for that once in a while when the skin just needs a pep talk!

5. Dea Kudibal, cosmetics bag
(shop here)
A beautiful beauty bag for all your beauty products. Whats not to love?

A BOTTLE OF ME

Beauty, Features

Personalized serum from Kiehls

Jeg har altid ønsket mig at få en hud analyse, har bare aldrig rigtig fået det gjort. For en uge siden fik jeg så en, hos Kiehls (i magasin) som udfra den hud analyse hjælper med at sammensætte en særlig serum udfra din hud. Det er et ret sejt system, man skal igennem nogle forskellige steps i en af de originale Kiehls bøger, på den måde får man også selv en forståelse for sin hud undervejs. Og så laver de en serum til dig. Jeg kan kun anbefale det!

english: I have always wanted to get a skin analysis, I just never did it. But a week ago I finally did it, at Kiehls (at magasin) who from that skin analysis made a personalized serum just for me. It’s a pretty cool system, you have to go through these steps in one of the originale Kiehls books, that way you also get a better understanding on whats going on underneath the surface. And then voila, they mix a serum for you! I can only recommend it.

LOOK OF AUTUMN – MAKEUP TUTORIAL

Beauty, Makeup, Tutorial

Location: Copenhagen
Photo by Sebastian / Jesuissebastian.com
Photos taken with Canon 7D mark II

Min første tutorial i laang tid, jeg følte det var på tide! Jeg elsker at lave step by step makeup guides men det er enormt tidskrævende og ofte noget jeg udsætter MEN nu skulle det være. Her er mit efterårs makeup look som jeg har glædet mig til at vise jer, der vil være links under hvert produkt billede så i kan finde produkterne direkte. Teksten er skrevet på engelsk så alle kan være med! God fornøjelse!

english: my first makeup tutorial in a long time, I felt it was time! I love doing step by step guides but it’s really time consuming and often something postpone BUT here it is. My go-to makeup look for fall and I have been so excited to share it with you! There is links under every shot so you can find the products directly. Enjoy!

Step 1
Here using: Under(cover) Perfecting Coconut Face Primer by Marc Jacobs beauty (shop here)

Start with a clean face, however you rinse or cleanse this should be done already. Prep the face by using a primer. I use the under(cover) coconut primer by Marc Jacobs beauty, it’s light, smells wonderful and really makes the foundation blend in with the skin.

Step 2
Here using: Re(marc)able Full Cover Foundation Concentrate by Marc Jacobs beauty (shop here)
Born to glow highlighter by NYX cosmetics (shop here)

The people behind Marc Jacobs beauty says that one dot of foundation should be enough to cover your whole face. I agree with that statement very much, this is very high coverage so be aware not to fill your palm and just smear it on. I always mix my foundation / CC cream / BB cream (or whatever) with just a little bit of liquid highlighter – it gives a very natural glow to the face! I love to use my hands when applying my base, this is optional of course. My shade is ivory 12.

Step 3
Here using: Sculpt and highlight face duo by NYX cosmetics (shop here)

“Two different concealers you say?” No not at all, it’s totally optional, I just like using a lighter and a darker shade to add more definition to my face. Any concealer you know and love is totally fine!

Step 4
Here using: Glow kit in sun dipped by Anastasia Beverly Hills (shop here)

Contour and highlight, some say this is the most important step of all. I love a good contour and highlight although I am probably doing it a little differently than others. I like to use a shiny contour instead of a matte one. Others tend to do it the other way around as the mat contour will then make the highlight pop even more but I love how the two highlighters (although different shades) lift each other up and creates a shiny, dewy and beautiful finish to the face. I used “summer” for my highlight and “bronzed” for the contour.

Step 5
Here using: Brow pencil in taupe by Anastasia Beverly Hills (shop here)
Lash genius by Anastasia Beverly Hills (shop here)

The step that makes the face! In my opinion. Before I knew how to do my brows I knew nothing at all (very dramatic by true!). I usually out draw the lines of the shape of brow I want that day and then I coat them with clear gel. The lash genius by Anastasia Beverly Hills is actually not even for the brows, it’s for your lashes, to make your mascara stay in place. But you see, I didn’t know that the first time I used it so I put it on my brows and went on with my day. I was outside and it started raining but my brows didn’t go anywhere because this baby is waterproof! Wuhu! Never wearing anything else.

Step 6
Here using: Sketch marker liquid art eyeliner in espresso by Too faced (shop here)
Always sharp waterproof kohl liner in nude by Smashbox (shop here)

I like to use a brown liquid liner for my winged eyeliner as it softens the look, especially when being very light like me it can be very harsh to wear all black. I line my waterline, for bigger and brighter eyes, with my favorite kohl liner in nude.

Step 7
Here using: Velvet noir volume mascara by Marc Jacobs beauty (shop here)

One of the best mascaras I have ever tired, by far! Easy to work with, easy to apply (and it applies a lot, which I love!).

Step 8
Here using: Eyeshadow pallet by Bobbi Brown (shop similar here)

I always apply my eyeshadow after applying my mascara because I always make a horrified mess. For this look I wanted the lids to be warm and smokey. I used the pink shade in the inner corners of my eyes and the taupe color for my crease and outer corners of my eyes. It’s subtle, everyday friendly but still add’s some sass to this otherwise classic look.

Step 9
Here using: Le Marc lip crème lipstick in sonic truth by Marc Jacobs beauty (shop here)

I have to hand it too him, the Marc guy sure makes a lot of mesmerizing nude lipsticks. Besides carrying an amazing color range, the lipstick it self is beyond yummy! It’s creamy, light textured but super pigmented, LOVE! Sonic truth which I’m wearing here, is only one of my favorites from his collection, you should also check out Slow burn (here), No angel (here) and J’ adore (here). You’re welcome.

Step 10

SMILE and greet the day, I hope you enjoyed this makeup tutorial.

Thank you for watching!

TOP 5 BEAUTY FAVORITES SEPTEMBER

Beauty, Top 5

Location: Copenhagen
Photos taken with Canon 7D mark II

Disse produkter er nogen jeg har brugt under modeugen, de har været lige ved hånden hele tiden og nu kan jeg slet ikke ligge dem fra mig. En god maske til belastet hud, en lækker børste til føntørring, en makeup børste til (næsten) det hele, den bedste styling creme og noget der dufter vidunderligt. Hvad skal man mere bruge? Find mine September favoritter nedenfor.

english: These products are some I have used during fashionweek and that I have grown to love. A good mask for congested skin, a great blow dry brush, a makeup brush for (almost) everything, the best styling creme and something that smells amazing. What more does one need? Check out my September favorites below.

1. Sebastian Professional, Invisible finishing crème
(shop here)
I love a good styling creme, I think it can really “make” a look. Shiny and weightless, anti frizz and easy to work with. I love to use this product when rocking a high ponytail or defined curls. Sebastian professional has launched this collection in collaboration with the iconic tattoo artist Maxime Büchi who is the man behind the beautiful packaging in the photo. Maxime Büchi has worked with iconic brands like Alexander McQueen and Rick Owens, according to Vogue he is one of the worlds most influential tattoo artists. I love when two different worlds meet like this, you both get the best Sebastian products and beautiful design by an amazing artist. Big high five from me!

2. Anastasia Beverlyhills, Brush #3
(shop here)
This little fella is my newest best friend, I use it for everything. First I was like, “this is too small to use for anything?” But now I use it for my eyeliner, eyeshadow in the crease and to clean up my brow liner with concealer. I absolutely love it.

3. Pañpuri, Hydration masque
(shop here)
Hypo-allergenic, dermatologically tested and 100% pure plant actives with essential oils. It smells like a spa dream and the packaging is to die for. It’s fragrance free, basically pure good and it gives a healthy glow to the skin, perfect!

4. Shu Uemura, Round brush
(shop here)
I have started blowdrying my hair a lot which have given me the chance to explore different brushes. I love a good flat brush but it really gives a whole other look when I use a round brush. This one from Shu Uemura has a handy grip and is a good size. Sometimes the brushes become too big, like it wasn’t hard enough to blow dry ones own hair already?!

5. Estelle & Thild, Body lotion “fresh water lily”
(shop here)
On the days where I don’t feel like wearing parfume I always just put a little bit of this amazing bodylotion on my neck, behind my ears and on my wrists. It smells amazing and people always ask me what I am wearing. It’s just such a lovely scent.

Beauty, FW SS17, PFW SS17

Beauty case / Delsey (shop here)

Puha, der har ikke været et stort pusterum mellem Milano og Paris, så meget at tage ind, lige nu ligner begge byer helt hinanden for mig. Men hvor er det skønt at komme ud og rejse, jeg er virkelig ualmindeligt priviligeret. Jeg skal være i Paris en fuld uge og det kræver lidt beauty oppakning, så jeg har taget min smukke beautycase, fra Delsey, med mig.

I brought my beautiful beauty case from Delsey with me to Paris and here is what I packed. Can’t live without my Foreo cleanser, my Mario Badescu products (some for redness, pimples and cleansing) and of course something for the hair.

TOP 5 BEAUTY FAVORITES AUGUST

Beauty, Top 5

Location: Copenhagen
Photos taken with Canon 7D mark II

Bedre sent end aldrig, jeg er lidt sent på den med mine favoritter denne måned. Det er svært at få det hele til at hænge sammen når man har så mange ting fra modeugen man gerne vil dele. MEN her er de, mine beauty favoritter fra august måned. Jeg har ikke haft noget tema denne gang, jeg har testet lidt forskelligt og mere taget udgangspunkt i ting jeg bruger meget i hverdagen. Happy shopping mine fellow beauty elskere!

english: Better late than never right? I am a little late on my favorites this month. It’s hard to get everything online at once when you have so much from fashionweek you want to share with your readers. Everything should be timed perfectly, but it isn’t always. BUT here they are, my August favorites. I didn’t have a theme this month, I sort of just tested everything and anything and ended up wanting to share some of the things I use most in the everyday. Happy shopping my fellow beauty lovers!

1. Natura Siberica, Nourishing and repairing hand creme in Wild Thistle
(shop similar here, otherwise available at Copenhagen store)
The more products I try from this amazing brand, the more I fall in love with it. I have never tested a bad product from Natura Siberica, the greatness never ends. This amazing hand creme does not just have the pretties packaging but it also has the creamiest formula. It’s light but not too light and then the smell, oh my there’s nothing like it. Just try it, you won’t regret swiping your card.

2. Anastasia Beverly Hills, Brow wiz in Taupe
(shop here)
There is no doubt that Anastasia Beverly Hills is the queen of brows, you just have to find the right product for you. Fortunately ABH has it all. I have always been a pencil girl but have been experimenting with new shapes for my brows which also calls for new products. To create super precise lined brows I use this brow wiz pencil. It’s small and easy to work! I love it.

3. Davines, Love shampoo
(shop here)
I love when brands know how to combine pretty packaging and great content. Davines is the master here. I love their shampoo and conditioner and they have so many, for different types of hair. The love shampoo is for curly haired girls like me, it’s divine!

4. EOS, Lipbalm in Lemon drop with SPF
(shop here)
The little bubble of joy, the EOS lip balm. I have finally found my favorite, well besides Vanilla Beam but they only sell that at Christmas, the Lemon drop! SPF and in the cutest yellow.

5. Marc Jacobs beauty, Highlighter in Spotlight
(shop here)
I can’t deny it, highlighters make me happy. They do?! They are amazing. They are the little shiny things in life that make you happy because you can literally put it on your face. This speed stick highlighter is genius. I love the design, it makes it super easy to use and the color is just gorgeous!

TOP 5 BEAUTY FAVORITES JULY

Beauty, Top 5

Location: Copenhagen
Photos taken with Canon 5D mark 3

For mig er sommer tiden hvor huden skal være så lækker som overhovedet muligt. Det er nemmere at pakke et par tørre stænger ind i December end det er i Juli så derfor har denne måneds produkter omhandlet hunden. Både krop og ansigt er blevet skrubbet, smurt ind og behandlet. Der er kommet disse 5 produkter ud af galskaben og jeg håber i vil blive lige så forelsket i dem som jeg selv er. Enjoy!

english: Summer is the time to have beautiful skin. It’s much easier to hide dry legs in December than it is in July, therefore I have been testing products that benefits the skin this month. Both face and body has been scrubbed, smeared and treated. What has come out of all this testing is these 5 products that I hope you will love just as much as I do. Enjoy!

1. Xellence, Harmony body oil
(shop here)
Not greasy, super soothing and smoothing body oil. I always get so nervous when trying a body oil because sometimes the brand who makes it just wants it to be so good that it just gets unwearable. Clothes and sheets usually get ruined but not with this one, this is great. It dried up super quick and I felt soft and pampered. Just like a good body oil is supposed to be!

2. Chanel, CC cream
(shop here)
I’ve never been into the whole BB / CC thing that really exploded worldwide a couple of year ago. So when getting this product in a goody bag I was so annoyed that it was a CC cream and not just a regular day or night cream because I don’t use CC cream. But as you know, Chanel is life, so I gave it a try. And now, my life is changed forever. What is this stuff? My complexion is much much better (without makeup) now than it was before. I’ve tried CC creams before and never saw any difference (which is why I don’t like them) but after only 3 weeks of testing this product I now look much better without makeup than I ever did. What a change. I am really in awe. Try it you won’t regret it!

3. Suki, Sensitive cleansing bar
(shop here)
Now a day everything comes in a tube and I will admit it’s more hygienic and way easier but there is something about a nice piece of soap. My mother always washed me and my brothers in bars of soap and to this day I still love how they feel. This one from Suki smells great and it sensitive on the skin. Win win + love!

4. Ilse Jacobsen, Sea buckthorn bodylotion
(shop here)
Buckthorn is one of my favorite scents in the world, it’s so fresh and unexpected and it reminds me of Scandinavia. Ilse Jacobsens bodylotion is not too thin and not too thick, doesn’t grease or become sticky and the buckthorn scent is just strong enough. I love to treat myself with this product, it’s devine.

5. Badeanstalten, Bathsalt
(shop here)
I am unfortunately not the owner of a bathtub, actually I don’t know if I would ever use it. BUT I love bathsalts, they’re just so luxurious. This one from Badeanstalten smells like lavender and peppermint, it’s pure perfection in a nice footbath!
