Purple EOTD and haul

Hey lovelies ^_^ So the other day I got tempted yet again as I neared my MAC counter. So many times my wallet has been sucked dry due to the tempting items MAC has on display. Damn you MAC!!! This time I started drooling over the gorgeous colors from the Starflash collection. So pretty!

Here is the haul I came home with:



I couldn't wait to get home, unpack the goodies and start playing with it. Eep, haha! I got Kohl power eye pencils in Mystery, Orpheus and Raven. And except for two eyeshadows I got all of them. I really dig this collection, the colors are awesome! Products: Lancôme khôl in black between lashes. MAC khôl power eye pencil in Raven on upper lashline Lotusland e/s on inner 1/3 of lid Sunset B. applied in the middle of lid Top hat on outer part of lid and in crease All shadows then blended together and on lower lashline as well.









Thanks for looking! Until next blog ^_^

My Copenhagen

As a capital city, Copenhagen is anything but big. I mean, compared to Paris or London one might say that Copenhagen is small. That is actually one of the things I like about the city, it's very nice and manageable. Tourists have a hard time getting lost and you can get everywhere on a bike. Due to the size, it has a homely feel to it and this is why this city seems so nice. There are certain things that I can't stand, for instance some dog owners don't feel it's their duty to pick up whatever gift their dogs left on the sidewalk. It has gotten better over the years but there are certain areas in the city that are notoriously known for this!


What I especially like about this place is the mix of old, traditional buildings and the new modern architectural pearls. 200 years ago, Copenhagen used to be a lot smaller, therefore there is even a "summer" residence known as Rosenborg castle in the middle of the city which used to be on the outskirts. Here are a couple of buildings that can be seen here. Denmark is relatively known for Design and architecture.






The Opera, The royal library(black diamond) and the Royal theatre.














Picture of one of many canals in Copenhagen. Round tower that used to be an observatory built by King Christian IV.



Frederiks church or the Marble church with the biggest dome in Northen Europe and Rosenborg Castle(former summer residence of the Royal family)
















So many more pictures that I'll post at a later time.


I hope you enjoy these!


Yes, I know that this has nothing to do with Copenhagen, but I snapped a few shots of me and my grandma (maternal) the other day. She had a stroke a few years back so she is bound to a wheelchair and can walk a little with a cane. She helped raise me and my siblings. I feel so fortunate to have not only my parents but my grandparents and my aunt raise us. Hopefully we didn't turn out to be bad seeds! :) Before the stroke she was the best cook! Noone ever taught her but it was after a lifetime of cooking that she had become so skilled. Unfortunately I didn't appreciate it enough so I only learnt 2-3 dishes from her. By the time I wanted to learn it was too late. I love her dearly!






Until next blog!

Cinnamon lids!

Hey lovelies ^_^

I stopped by my Lancôme counter to get my regular Bi-facil eye make-up remover (love!) and I got tempted by their autumn/winter look.


Yikes! I did it again... got tempted into buying something when I told myself that all I as going to get was my make.up remover. I'm such a sucker for new looks. It's like I go into a trance and I reach for my wallet *must.... buy! ...Can't... hrng resist! Gawd...* This is what I picked up at the counter.
The Bi-facil eye make-up remover Single eyeshadow: Cuban brown, from their fall look Black khôl pencil: Karala. This new black eye liner pencil is even more black than their regular black/noir khôl, it's SUPERblack! It really defines the shape of eyes and something this black is def something I'd wear on a dinner date and not for daytime. That's when I stick to my "regular" black pencil.
Eyeshadow is a superpretty golden grey/brown color that makes my dull eye area come to life. Applied all over lid, up to crease and blended. I lined my eyes with the liner, making sure to go upwards and outwards towards the end, flicking it up. Lightly lined outer 1/3 of lower lash line as well.

The look is a bit glamorous without being OTT. On my lips, I'm wearing L'Oréal Star Secrets: Aishwarya Rai. The color is gorgeous, is beige-neutral without being boring, with a hint of color. I like it on my yellow undertoned skin. My way of secretly hoping for a little Aishwarya-beauty. Haha! Yes, and then I woke up! Love that lipstick! Thanks for looking!

Greeneyed monster!

Hey lovelies!

Just the other day, I was browsing my local Make-up Store (yes that's the name) and this color caught my eye. I'm such a sucker for vibrant colors (^o^) I would say that Make-up Store (MUS) is the Scandinavian equivalent to MAC.

This eyeshadow is SUPERGREEN! (oy, the movie: the 5th element comes to mind, haha!) And I likey the shimmer in it. I heart shimmer, I think I might be addicted to it...Anyways, I also picked up a green glitter eyeshadow. It shows in the close-ups.

Lancôme khôl pencil liner in brun/noir Maybelline sky high curves waterproof in black MAC paint pot in Moss scape all over lid up to crease MUS e/s in Eclipse applied on inner 2/3rds of lid and up to crease MAC e/s in Humid on outer 1/3 of lid, crease and outer V. MUS twinkle eyeshadow in Amazon used to line upper lashline











What kind of green? Uh... emeraldgreen... any green you want! ...hrm! Anywhoodle, I like green eyeshadow!
