Just Some Little Bits

Hey guys!
Seems like its been awhile since i've last written because I missed last week (ahhh!) but I'm back again. This week I thought I would show you some things in my room since I've recently moved countries and therefore houses. Although Im not fully done decorating my room I thought I would just share with you some of the things I've done.

Stare Me Down With Those Electric Eyes

Hey guys!

The other day my sister and I decided to get outside and enjoy a nice fall sundown in the park. The colors were so beautiful, the park bursting with yellows, oranges, and red tones. One thing I really love about Finland is how you can have the contrast of vibrant parks and beautiful sundowns against the sea. I am really loving fall this year. Hope you all had a good weekend!

Soap & Glory

Hey Guys! 

So I realize that I say I love a lot of stuff. I blog about how I love this and that but honestly I am in love with Soap & Glory products to the point where I could just marry the products. Not only do they do what they say they will do but they smell AMAZING. I absolutely hate how I cant purchase more items from Soap & Glory in Finland because I would buy it all up. When I was in London this past April I decided to try out this product since everyone was going crazy about how great they smell and work. My friend was the one who actually pointed them out and then we went insane trying to pick out just what to buy because they have so many products (not to mention we needed room in our suitcases for it)! In the end I picked out four items (yup I said four! Note to self: remember to put things back in your bag when you get through security at the airport... my hand food:( ). So lets get started on this little review!
Soap & Glory Butter Yourself
Claims: "Want smoother, fresher, softer skin? Just Butter Yourself with super rich body cream containing exfoliating AHAs, orange waterjuice, shea butter, perpermint oil, and fruitliquid fig."

Wow okay, so they claim that this body butter has a lot of products which I honestly have no clue what are. But whatever they are, they work to get you smoother, fresher, and softer skin. This body butter is super creamy and melts straight into the skin (It almost feels like water!). As well, (I can already tell this is going to get repeated a lot), this product smells amazing. It has a very fresh kinda morning smell to it. It almost reminds me of the smell of flowers. Not only does the products smell amazing but it will also last for a long time. Ive had this body butter since April and I am only half way through!
Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Body Scrub
Claims: "Its sugar baby! use in the shower once, twice, or three times a weekly depending on the level of scaliness you struggle with. Contains smashed brown sugar, sweet lime, almond oil, and macadamia grains"

This is also a product that I have been absolutely loving. It really exfoliates the skin to leave it feeling and looking smoother and fresher. Like the body butter I have been using this product, probably, two to three times a week and I am still only half way through. What I really love about this product (once again) is the smell. It honestly smells like candy that there are times where I have had to remind myself not to eat it. I just cant express how good it smells. 
Soap & Glory The Scrub Of Your Life
Claims: "The ultimate super-smoothing body butter. How you will know its the one: Once rough elbows go suddenly silky, dry skin becomes shimmery, the bumps are gone on the backs of your arms, you start to believe that scrub can conquer all"

I am in love with this product. All those things it claims to do, it does. Its is super exfoliating and also smells amazing. I use this product a lot and I am actually beginning to run out! 

I dont even know what to say anymore about these products because they are just..ugh.. i dont know..amazing!

So have you ever tried any Soap & Glory products? If you have what has been your favorite?

This is it, the Apocalips




Hey guys! 
Today I thought I would share with you a product that I have been using all summer and have been loving. That is the Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquers or (If you are from America, like where I purchased mine) the Rimmel Show Off Lip Lacquers. I think that most people will know what this product is because it is a highly talked about lip lacquer that a lot of people have been raving about. So when my dad did his yearly trip to America I knew I needed to ask him to pick me up one or two. You could say I was jumping for joy when he returned with these two!

Now into the details of this product. As you can see in the photos above I have two of the Apocalips (sorry Americans, I love the European name more!) in the colors 500 Luna and 400 Big Bang. These products are highly pigmented and I tend to use the Luna one more because a bright red lip can be hard to pull off. I do like the Big Bang one for when I go out and go to parties and stuff. On the other hand the Luna has a really nice color and I use it daily. The Luna has more of a pink-orange color although it looks really orange in my pictures. Now what really impressed me overall about this product was how creamy it goes on and how it seems to last for awhile (not as long as I hoped, but touching up always helps). The only downfall of this product is that it tends to make my lips a little dry but I always remember to put on lip balm before and after using the product to keep my lips moisturized.


 Here is a picture of me wearing the Big Bang and my sister wearing the Luna. Please excuse our cringey duck face!

Overall, I am very interested in getting more of these lip lacquers and trying more of the amazing colors (especially the nude one!). I would probably give this product an 8/10 and I will defiantly continue using them during the Fall!



So have you tried this amazing product yet? If you have, whats your favorite color?

My Top 10 Songs/Artist of September

Hello again :) 
Okay, I do realize that this is a fashion and beauty blog but I thought once a month I would tell you guys about some of the music Ive been loving. Music is a big part of my life and I have no clue what I would do without it. I feel like music is so relatable to everyone.
