beunuki Everyday Chronograph Watch

I have never been one to wear a wrist watch. I don't really know why, I'd just rather wear braclets and look at my phone if I want to know the time. Even though I never wore them I've alwas liked them on others.
Then one day I somehow found beunuki's instagram page and fell in love, and luckely for me, it was my birthday a few week after I found this online store so instead of buying a watch myself I whished for my favourite one for my birthday and I got it from my sister and her boyfriend!



This is the one! Out of all the watches they have this is one of the most simple ones, and that is what I like about it. It has a simple faux white leather strap and the actual clock is also white with rose gold details. What I think makes this simple watch special is that the numbers are roman and it has other details there aswell that I don't know that to call. Those details is what I like about it and I think it makes it more interesting. That is what realy like when it comes to style. Simple things but with a something little more.



To be honest, I am not a rose gold fan. I prefer the normal yellow gold. I did one time found a neckalce that I liked that was rose gold but when I held it against my skin I felt like it really didn't go well with my skincolour. Because it is so much white on this watch and the rose gold is only in the details that is not a problem. I really like it on my skin. I actually think I like it more than I though I would when I first found it. Yeah, I love this watch!

Motel Rocks Bikini



If I look outside I will see snow. If I go outside I will freeze, even if I would be wearing a winter jacket and a scarf. Basically it's the middle of the winter and that's probably not the time of year when most people are thinking about buying bikinis. But I'm going to Greece in the end of May and I'm really (really) exited about that! So after Christmas I looked around in the sales and found this bikini by Motel Rocks on asos and it was love at first sight. The print on it is so lovely and tropical and I just felt like I had to have it.
I'm going to be honest. I was pretty nervous about buying a bikini online because that is obviously a piece of clothing that has to fit good. I both looked at what size I have on a bikini I already own and looked at the size guide to see that size should fit me. Luckily it fits perfect and I couldn't bee more happy with this purchase!

You can find it on asos here (still on sale) and on Motel Rocks here.

New Skincare


A couple weeks age I needed both a new moisturiser and a new eye cream and these are the ones I bought.
I have heard good things about the whole The Body Shop Vitamin E range, and I have tried the eye cream which I liked, so therefore I wanted to try the moisturiser. They have this one which is for all skin types and also one for dry skin. I went for this one because my skin is a bit dry at the moment at the same time as I have a couple spots so I felt like this one would work the best for me of the two.
The eye cream I got is the Line Smoothing Eye Cream from Yves Rocher. I haven't heard anything about it before but I looked around on their christmas sale and saw it with 60% off and the reviews people have written there were all positive so since it was on such a good deal I wanted to buy it. Eye creams are as you might know usually a bit pricey.
I have only had these two products for about two weeks so I can't really say too much about what I think of them but so far the seem to work good for me, especially the eye cream.

New Perfect Rings




As I think I have said before, I love rings and have been looking for some simple plain ones for a long time and I think I have found the perfect ones.
They are form H&M and the plain ones was in a pack of six and the ones with a texture (that almost looks like glitter but not quite) came in a pack of eleven. They are so easy to just stock on and there are rings that fits for every finger for me. The plain ones are in different sizes, the textured ones are not but because they have different lenghts (if you understan what I mean, I can't find the right word) they fit both my index-, middle- and ring fingers.
Since they are fron H&M they had a good price. 40 swedish crowns for the plain and 50 for the textured.
As I said in the title and in the beginning of this text, they seem perfect!

Mini Beauty Haul


I needed to stock up on a few beauty products recently so I thought I'd show them in a little haul.
The first thing I needed was a new moisturizer. I used the Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit one before and I like it but I wanted to try something else and I'm happy I did because this is the best moisturizer I have tried. It is the Nivea Pure and Natural Moisturizing Day Care for normal to combination skin. I have only used it for about two weeks but I can already see a differenc in my skin. I just quite recently started to have one or two spots all the time, I never had any problems with breakouts when I was around 15 which I think seems to be when most people struggle with that. I don't really know if you can say that I have a problem with them since there only is one or two at a time but it's more that I have had before. Anyhow, since I started using this moisturizer I haven't had any and this is the only thing I have changed in my skin care so it has to be thanks to this. I would definetly recommend it to anyone with normal to combination skin!
The next thing I needed a new one of was foundation and it was an easy choise. I have heard so much good about it and I have used another foundation from Max Factor that I also loved so there was no doubt that it was the Max Factor Facefinity All Day Flawless I would go for. I have only used it for a couple days but so far I like it. It gives good coverage at the same time as it doesn't feel like I have anything on my face.
I also bought a new wash/scrub but I haven't started using it yet so I can't say what I think about it. It is the Garnier Pure Activ 3 in 1 and I mostly have heard good reviews about it so I'm hoping I will like it.
Then I just picked up a facemask on the way to the cash desk. It is a peel of mask which I like and it says that it freshen up the face but I'm not expecting anything magical from it.

Have you tried any of these products? If so, what do you think about them?

Phone case / wallet





I got a new phone on my birthday, Samsung galaxy S4 mini, and I wanted some kind of case for it. I went on ebay and started searching. I first looked at normal cases but then I decided that I rather wanted a wallet for it. Both because it protects the phone more and I like that I can have my phone, cash and cards at the same place and I don't need to bring my handbag if I don't feel like I need to. I found this one and loved it! The things I like so much about it is that it has an envelope style to it and the studds adds so much. I also like that it has place for three cards because most of the wallets I looked at only had two. The cards I want to bring with me are my ID, bankcard and bus card.
It's not quite as white on person as it looks on the pictures. It's more of a yellow toned off white but it's not something that matters at all.
I don't know if the make this wallet for other phones but if you have a Samsung galaxy S4 mini and are looking for a more fun wallet to it I would recommend this.

I'm not sure which seller I bought it from but here is one that sells it: Click.

New Pants + New Video


It was my 18 birthday last thursday so last week I was celebrating that with both friends and family so that's why it has been a bit empty here for a little more than a week. I just didn't have time to blog.

Yesterday I got these pant that I ordered from Missguided about two weeks ago. I have to say that I absolutely love this flower print! I got them on the sale for £ 16.09 which I think is really good. But.. I do think that this fabric isn't the best quality. Even though it's lightweight ( as it says in the description on them, here ) and has a little stretch in it I can see in the seams that the fabric isn't the best. That is a bit disappointing since I love the print so much but I'm going to keep them and hope that the stitches will hold. They are the right size for me, I even compared them with another pair of pants I have that are also high waisted and tight and they both are the same size.

The third and final thing I want to say in this post is that I uploaded a new video on youtube yesterday. The "13 questions tag".

Two New Products


I was looking at the last things left in the sale and found this volume spray mousse from Urban by Björn Axén for half price. I wanted something that would help me get a messy look in my hair now that it's shorter ( I cut of about 10-15 cm off it last week). I was thinking about a salt water spray but then I saw this and decided to go for it instead since it says it gives volume which I really like.
Then a picked up a face mask too. I have heard good things about Formula 10.0.6 but never tried anything and this sounds like it would be good for my skin. They sell their masks in this 2x5g packaging and also in 100 ml tubes but I went for the small one so I can see how I like it and if it works good I might buy the big tube.

I will probably write what I think about both these product when I have tried them.

Beauty Haul





I have bought some beauty products recently so I decided to show them in a video, but I thought it would be easier to show swatches in pictures than in the video so here they are.
As you can see with the eyeshadows the darker colour are more pigmented than the lighter ones, but the light colours are still good. I haven't used any sort of base under the swatches but I always use a primer on my eyelids when I do my makeup so I pretty sure the colours will show even better on my eyes. I am probably going to do tutorials using both these eyeshadow palettes.
The blush in Heather Silk is really pigmented so I think you will need to use a light hand when you apply that one. I haven't used it yet though because I prefer peachy colour on my cheeks on the summer. So the other blush, in pearlescent pink, I have used everyday since I bought it. People say that it's a good dupe for Orgasm from Nars which everyone seems to love. And I really can see why if it's similar to this one.

This was my first time talking in a video and I actually wasn't as scared as I thought I would be.
Look here if you want to see what else I have bought:

New makeup





I have been in a shopping mood lately but I hope it have calmed down now after my last purchases that you can see on the pictures above. There are a lot of sales here now and all of these items exept for the necklace were on sale.
I am happy with everything but I'm not going to talk too much about them since I'm planning on doing that in other posts, and show what the makeup looks like on.
The necklace is from H&M and I really like it. I like that it's simple but a bit different at the same time. I also really like the mix of gold and the stones.
The blush is the Lumene Touch Of Radiance Blush in shade 1, the second picture shows the colour of it pretty good. The nailpolish is also from Lumene in the colour 13 and I'm going to show you it in my next 'My Nails' post in a couple days.
The lipsticks are also from Lumene ( they had a good sale ). The are the Wild Rose Moist Lipsticks in Midsummer and Clouds. Both are quite nude on my lips and they feel really nice.
Lastly the lipgloss is the Moisturizing Lipgloss from Isadora and I love it! It is really pigmented and I'm going to show you this one too soon.

New 'little black dress'



Here is a dress I bought from H&M a few days ago. I saw it online and really like it so I went to the store and bought it.
The thing I like the most about this dress is that you can easily dress it up or down.
Wear it with converse and it will look casual. Wear it with heels and it will look more dressy. You can also layer it and wear it on the winter.
Basically, I think this dress is perfect! And it only cost 99 swedish crowns.
I didn't get any good pictures of the full dress but it goes down to some inches above the knee.

I have been busy with school work the past couple weeks so I havn't had time to blog. But now I'm done with everything so there will be a post every other day as usual.

New for summer



Okay, it doesn't really feels like summer yet here in Sweden but it's hopefully not to far away. We have cherry blossoms outside our apartment and the trees are green and I have eaten my first strawberries this year! They weren't Swedish of course but they tasted good.
Anyway, that's not that I was going to tell you about here. I was going to show you what I bought yesterday, everything is from Cubus.
The first thing is really basic and it's just a normal black hoddie with a zipper. I like hoodies to be big and cozy so I got this one in size L but it doesn't look that big on.
Next is a pair of hot pink shorts. I wasn't too sure about the colour at first and looked more at a black pair but my sister made me try this one and I'm happy she did. I really like them and this colour makes me look a bit more tanned. The also fit really good.
Last is a pack with four rings. I love wearing rings so packs like this are perfect for me. I think they are really pretty and they had 25% off on all jewelry when I bought them which made me happy. It's such a nice feeling when you know you're going to buy something and then it's cheaper that you thought it was going to be.

New bag




I got this New Look Beano Backpack from asos a few days ago. It was the first time I bought something from there and I can say that it's definitely not the last time. I got it in the mail only just over a week after I ordered it which I think is really good, and the fact that they have free delivery makes it even better.
The main reason to why I bought this bag is that I thought it would be easier on the summer to have a backpack than a one shoulder bag when I go away on day trips and such.
I had found a black and white striped bag on Topshop that I really liked but then I saw this one and liked it too and it was about half the price as the one on Topshop so I decided to go for this one.
I haven't used it yet but I can already tell that I'm going to be pleased with it when I do.

Two new products


I love my IsaDora Velvet Touch Powder but I'm out of it now and I wanted to try something else. After a while I decided to go for the L'oreal True Match Powder. I haven't tried it yet so I can't say what I think about it. From what I have read about it, it seems to be a really good powder but it can look a little cakey. I only use powder to set my foundation and concealer so I don't think that will be a problem for me.
The other thing I bought was an eye shadow to fill in my eyebrows with. This is the Kicks Eye Colour in Lady Godiva. I know this eye shadow has a little shimmer in it but that doesn't show when I have filled in my brows with it so I doesn't matter. You can see a swatch on it in the picture below.
