Lyko competition, Team Colourit.se!
Sunday~, Sunday~ and even though I don’t have school or work tomorrow I feel slightly sad that it’s Sunday >w< So instead of just sitting here and do nothing I decided to finish an entry to a competition I said I would enter!
Here’s my entry, the “beauty kit” I want to win together with her pick of products for around 600 SEK:From left to right:
DuWop’s Lip Venom
The Balm’s Stainiac
NailTwist
The Balm’s Pick Up Liners (Mickey)
Lee Strafford’s Dry SchaMPOO
Med detta bidrag är jag med och tävlar i Lykotävlingen som anordnas mellan bloggarna Colour it, Imakeyousmile, Idasbeauty samt Cuponation.se.
I picked products I’ve never tried before (but believe I’ll use a lot) and things that would “complete” what she picked. c: I also really like that everything would look pretty together on a shelf or in your toiletry bag.
The competition end in three hours so I hope she wins and picks me! ^^b
If you wants to see what she picked, click here to get to her blog post.
See you tomorrow or on Tuesday! Have a lovely week~

[Kitty Tail] [Happy Doggy]
Lip-product used: IsaDora’s Perfect Moisture lipstick in Chelsea Red.
Such a strange weather day! It looks like it’s going to rain anytime in one minute and the next the sun is shining crazy strong. I’m having a recovery day today because yesterday was very long for me~ I’m still exhausted (╯︵╰,)

The Red Lippy Project: Day 3
The Red Lippy Project ♡
(If you don’t know what TRLP is, click on the text!)
Ready for work~
Lip-product used: Jelly Pong Pong’s Lip Blush (moisturizing lip stain).
I chose the lip blush because it’s easy to wipe off! Since I don’t want to sweat in a boiling factory with lipstick all over my face, haha!
I’ll be back tonight but now it’s time to earn some money *I’m so nervious!*.
See ya and have a nice Tuesday! // Nancy
The Red Lippy Project: Day 1
The Red Lippy Project ♡
(If you don’t know what TRLP is, click on the text!)
Arashi and I wore our red lippies to the beach today (you know the BBQ-invite I got). It was nice talking to people, having a laugh but still being able to relax and play some Mario 3D land with your feet in the water and hearing people and waves in the background.
Prepare yourself for crappy 3DS pictures~
The lipstick faded when I swam but I just reapplied it afterwards! ^^
Lip-product used: Rimmel London’s Apocalips in Big Bang.
This was a very pleasant afternoon~ I’m back at Arashi’s again but I’ll be going back home after E3 tomorrow! See you then :3

Glossybox Sweden May 2013
Finally picked up my Glossybox yesterday and as you all know, this will be my last one (for real this time haha)! Even though this isn’t products I’d usually be stoked about… I’m actually very satisfied with this box~
May’s theme is Magical Beauty and there’s no makeup in it (in mine at least) but products that are good for your hair and skin now that it’s summer.
Soooo let’s see what I got!
1. Wen Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner
This product states to be everything in one: shampoo, conditioner, hair mask and styling product. It also cleans your hair without stripping it of its natural oils, strength or shine.
It sounds too good to be true, all I’m wondering is “what’s wrong?”… maybe the price. It’s 299 SEK for 480 ml (which is a lot of product). I won’t be buying it though since I’d rather spend 299 on something more fun!
2. Dr. Bronner’s Magic Soaps Organic Citrus Castile Liquid Soap
One of the finest ecological & fair trade-marked soaps for body and face from a company that’s been going for 150 years so far. It’s made from coconut-, olive-, jojoba- and hamp oil + essential oils.
It’s a very liquidy soap and it smells just like Burt’s bees lemon butter cuticle cream, it’ll be very interesting to use!
The full-size product is 99 SEK for 236 ml.
3. Puma Sync Deospray + EdT
Exotic and fruity smell from papaya, mandarin, orange, lotus, rose, white peach ect.
I’m actually already in love with Puma deospray’s (I’ve tried two other ones), I think they smell good and last all day so it was nice to get a little can I can take with me. I don’t use fragrances so the EdT isn’t really interesting for me but I think it was cool that the one time I get a fragrance sample (which I’ve been hoping not to get since I started subscribing), it’s also a deospray with it and not a lotion.
The full-size EdT (40ml) is 219 SEK and the deospray (150 ml) is 99 SEK.
4. Color Club Age Of Aquarius Nailpolish
Trendsetting Color Club has existed since 1979 and they are apparently showing us this summer’s color.
Funfacts: 1. I’m an aquarius 2. I love when they name colors funny/beautiful names 3. I just coloured my hair turquoise 4. I love matching.
This nail lacquer is meant for me haha! :D It’s too bad they don’t have the name anywhere on the bottle though :c
This polish is 69 SEK/15 ml.
5. Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Sun Lotion SPF 15
A sun lotion which acts like a filter against UVA and UVB + infrared beams. It also contains nourishing botanical extract.
The lotion itself looks like the bottle (which is cool) and it smells so good (not at all like the awful smell of sunscreen). I’m really bad with using protection against the sun since I don’t get sun burned (which isn’t actually an excuse) and I really don’t like how sunscreen smells or feels on my skin. But this one might make me better with using it. I’ve also considered buying some kind of spray (don’t know which one though).
The full-size product is 109 SEK/80 ml.
We also got a Femme Natural Boost energy drink but since a lot of people got an old can (their official fb-site says that they labeled the cans wrong though… which is questionable. How is that even possible?), it’s been drama over that. I’m not affected though, mine is fine till next year C:
That’s that people, my Glossybox period is over but it was fun while it lasted. I liked being a costumer until a few weeks ago. We’ll see if I’ll come back some time (for the special boxes maybe) or if new boxes will be available in Sweden! :D
I’m going to sleep over at a friend’s house today and tomorrow I got invited to a BBQ on my friends neighborhood’s island. I won’t let down The Red Lippy Project but I might fuse together day 1 & 2 if I can’t upload posts at my friend’s house! ^^ See you tomorrow or on Monday!

The Red Lippy Project! ♡
Good morning!
I was browsing through Facebook yesterday and Illamasqua’s fanpage informed about The Red Lippy Project which encourages people to wear red lips from 9th to 15th June to raise awareness of cervical cancer!

If you do it and have Twitter/Instagram, share a picture (or seven :D) hashtagged with #TheRedLippyProject and/or @RedLippyProject!
I’ll be wearing different red’s from Sunday to Saturday (and I’ll be posting MOTDs)~ Join me and a lot of other people, it’ll be fun! And for a good cause~
Looking forward to see your lips on Twitter and remember

New hair: “I chose the color of your eyes…”
Because I’m (unconsciously) a hopeless romantic.
I used Directions Turquoise on the bleached hair and then hime cut my hair~
I have to trim it a bit though (and straighten it… it isn’t as majestic when it isn’t straight)!
Glossybox arrived today, I just have to pick it up but a post will be up tomorrow. See ya~

Saturday’s boredom lippy results.
I was so bored last night that I did Jessica Rabbit lips.
I think that I will do a tutorial on Tuesday c:
After that I wiped everything off and picked up a black eyeliner and started drawing lines on my face and lips.
I’m going to bed now, I’ll see you tomorrow! I just have “kick-out of love” tomorrow (last time to hang out with the teachers before we graduate). Graduation on Wednesday. Crazy.
Good night!

Glossybox Sweden: Mother’s Day box.
Good afternoon!
I got the Mother’s Day Glossybox yesterday. We have mother’s day on Sunday so that’s why (I know that the USA had it on the second Sunday of May)~
It’s a special box with 6 full-size products but one is smaller than expected. Glossybox stated in a mail that it was full-size but it’s much smaller than the promised one. There’s a pump bottle that contains the amount stated on the card… just saying. I haven’t decided yet if I’ll keep mine since I’m not certain I’ll even use half the products in the box. It’s good that we’re allowed to sent the box back though and get a refund.
I’ll show you what I got but I won’t do as I usually do since I don’t feel like commenting everything! If you want to know more about the products, Google is your friend! c;
1. Becca Cosmetics Crème blush in Hyacinth
2. Bellápierre Cosmetics Super lip gloss in Raspberry
3. Emite Makeup Professional makeup sponges Flower
4. MeMeMe Cosmetics Eye Inspire mono eyeshadow in Frosted
5. Macadamia Healing oil treatment
6. Monu Professional Skincare Recovery balm
The only thing I want to keep is the creme blush and I’m not even sure I’m going to use it since I already have creme blushes.
This wasn’t really for me (or my mom), I was expecting the New Year’s box-feeling but this wasn’t even close :c
Oh well, I’ve seen people who is satisfied with their products and that’s great!
I’m not that hyped on Glossybox anymore but the May-box should arrive next week and that will definitely be the last Glossybox for me.
I wasn’t even planning on getting it but they took money from my account (even though I hadn’t filled in my information) and apparently they avoid the question if you ask them if you can cancel your order. Urgh.
I’ll see you next week with the last Glossybox post!
