Favourites: July 2016

July was almost entirely a holiday month for me and while I'm sad it's over, part of me is actually quite happy to get back into my routines and feel a bit productive again. I went to Barcelona for my main holiday this year, and I absolutely loved it. I am definitely going back and if you haven't been yet, I absolutely recommend it, it's an amazing city! For my favourites for the past month there's some new products, some I've talked about in the past, and some I've just written reviews on. Keeping with the summer theme - these are all either bronzy warm shades of makeup, something with SPF, or of course just a light wonderful summery perfume.

Favourites: July 2015

There hasn't been much of a summer here in Norway, but I've made sure to take advantage of the days when the sun and warmer temperatures did decide to peek through. Even without the typical summer weather I've still found myself gravitating towards lighter makeup and skincare as I usually do this time of year. Fall is just around the corner and even though I'm a bit sad I barely got to wear any dresses this year, I'm kind of excited as fall is my favourite time of the year! I've already started eyeing candles - but that's for next month! Now for my still-"summer"-july favourites!

2014 Favourites: The Rest

And now for my final Favourites of 2014 post! This one is all about hair, body, nails and perfume all wrapped into one post - hence it being called 'The Rest'. While I'm sure I'm forgetting a few products I've gone through the past year that really should be featured here, this is a very nice collection of products I've come to rely on throughout the past 12 months. There's nothing here that I wouldn't buy again when they run out, and that's really saying something.

Empties: January 2014

After doing a bit of shopping during December on my trip to London and France/Italy plus receiving a few products as part of gifts for Christmas I knew it was time to do a bit of de-cluttering. I deemed January "sample month" and have been working on finally cleaning out the incredibly huge back-stock of products just "lying around". I also wanted to focus on finishing stuff that had been "almost empty" for a while. I've also taken a lot of stuff and given away to friends and family. It's definitely been a success and I can already see a noticeable improvement. I might even continue on into February.

Favourites: August 2013


Finally we're heading into fall - my favourite time of year! The weather has still been all about summer here in Norway, but I've been slowly transitioning my clothes, nail polish and makeup into more fall appropriate colours and formulas. Still no dark lipstick and cozy sweaters but hopefully soon! I can't wait for it to get a bit colder so I can wear layers and cute fall jackets. I'm also looking forward to cloudy crisp fall days so that I can properly concentrate on studying for uni - am I the only one finding it hard to focus with the sun beaming in through the windows?
