Purish haul (April 2024)

I have a beauty haul to share with you today. I purchased these products from the German site Purish.

The Lunar Beauty Moonshroom collection is one of the main reasons I made this order. I think this palette is so stunning. I’m wearing it on my eyes here.

I also got the Moonshroom highlighter palette, which is such a stunner as well.

This is the Lethal Cosmetics Mellow Grove palette, which is another palette I had my eye on. I really enjoyed the Lethal Cosmetics Midnight Serenade palette, so I was hoping that this palette would have the same great quality.

From Lethal Cosmetics I also picked up the Magnetic face powder in Pansy and two of the Haze plush lip creams in the shades Leeward and Hydra. I really like the glowy blushes from Lethal Cosmetics, and this Pansy shade is so fun. I haven’t tried the Haze plush lip creams yet.

Lastly, I got the Danessa Myricks Beauty Blurring Buddies holiday kit, which includes a mini of the Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder in Universal and the Blurring Balm Powder Flushed in the shade It Girl. I already own a full size of the Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder in Universal, which I love, and I’ve got another shade of the Blurring Balm Powder Flushed blushes, so I knew that they were good. They’re some of the most long lasting cream blushes I’ve tried.

Matas haul – mainly sale (April 2024)

I have a make-up haul to share with you today. I purchased these items from the Danish “drugstore” Matas, and most of the items were on sale.

These are the Clarins Lip Comfort Oil Intense in the shades 01 Intense Nude and 02 Intense Plum. I love the “regular” Clarins Lip Comfort Oils, so I thought it would be fun to try out a more pigmented version.

MAC reformulated there matte lipsticks earlier this year, and I’d been wanting to try one out, so I picked the classic shade Candy Yum Yum, which I never owned before. It’s such a pretty, vibrant pink colour.

I’ve been enjoying the Fenty Beauty We’re Even hydrating longwear concealer. I got the shade 120N. I’d heard good things about the Fenty Skin lip oils, so I picked up the Fruit Quench’rz hydrating + conditioning lip oil duo, which include the Melon Treat and the Cherry Treat lip oils. I’ve been wearing the Cherry Treat one quite a bit lately, and it feels lovely and luxurious on the lips.

I was so excited about this Fenty Beauty launch. It’s the Demi’ Glow light-diffusing highlighter in Pretty Purlz 01, and it’s absolutely stunning.

The last Fenty Beauty product in this haul is the Gloss Bomb universal lip luminizer in Fuchsia Flex 12. I’d seen people on Instagram wear it, and it just looked so pretty.

Let’s move on to this little mix of glowy cheek products. I got the Essence So Mesmerizing blush stick in 01 Let Mermiracles Happen!, the Essence Blush Crush! in 10 Caramel Latte, the RMS Beauty ReDimension hydra powder blush in French Rosé, the Iconic London Multi-Use Cheek Glow blush in Hot Stuff, and the Dior Forever Glow Maximizer in 011 Pink.

Here’s a closer look at most of the products. All 5 of these products are lovely.

I enjoyed the RMS Beauty ReDimension hydra powder blush so much that I had to pick up another shade. I chose the shade Bohemian Girl. I also bought the RMS Beauty ReDimension hydra dew luminizer in Prosecco Fizz, which is also really pretty.

Lastly, I purchased four products from the Essence Got A Crush On Apricots collection. I picked up the swirl lipgloss in 01 Apricotly In Love, the aura blush in 01 Abracadapricots, the baked highlighter in 01 Feel The Apricôt D’Azur Sun, and the jelly lip care in 01 Apricoated With Love.

Collective haul (April 2024)

I have a rather large collective haul to share with you today. It includes a lot of beauty products, ond piece of clothing, and some shoes.

I love the Anastasia Beverly Hills lip liners, so I picked up another shade called Chai, which is a beautiful deep brown.

I picked up these four products from Cocopanda, and I got 10% off all four products. I purchased the Milani Cheek Kiss cream bronzer in 110 Hey Honey, the Physicians Formula Bread & Butter bronzer in Toasty, the Physicians Formula Strawberry Jam blush in Strawberry, and the Ole Henriksen Pout Preserve Peptide lip treatment in Blood Orange Spritz. I haven’t used these products enough to form a proper opinion on them yet, but they sure look cute.

They next products coming up I purchased from Sephora. This is the R.E.M. Beauty Yours Truly makeup set which includes the Midnight Shadows liquid eyeshadow in 1954, the On Your Collar plumping lipgloss in Pink Razor, and the Interstellar highlighter topper in Honeymoon High.

From R.E.M. Beauty I also got the Essential Drip glossy balm in Shirley, and I had to pick up one of the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch luminous powder blushes and chose the shade Cheer, which is so pretty.

Here’s another set I purchased from Sephora. It’s the Laneige Berries ‘N Choco Kisses lip duo set, which includes a full size Lip Glowy Balm in Berry and a mini Lip Sleeping Mask in Chocolate. I haven’t tried these out yet.

The last products I got from Sephora are the Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa 59 and 71 perfume mists (90 ml). I really enjoy both of these scents, though they’re very different.

These last beauty products I got in a Lyko sale. I bought two of the Maybelline Sunkisser blushes (shades: 5 Blazing Blush and 6 City Sizzle), the Catrice Kohl Kajal Waterproof im 180 Red Coral, the Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High mascara in Burgundy Haze, and then I got the Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa 68 perfume mist (90 ml) as a point shop gift.

The only piece of clothing in this collective haul is this pair of purple sequin trousers from Crás, which I got on sale. They’re so fun.

And lastly, shoes. I picked up these snake print pumps in an H&M sale. They’re quite classic and I don’t have anything else like these.

You know my favourite style of sneakers are Nike Cortez, and I kind of collect them at this point. This navy blue version is a great and very wearable addition to my growing collection.

The last pair of shoes in this haul is this pair of dark cherry Crocs Stomp winter boots. I’m excited to wear these next winter.

First ever Haus Labs haul (March 2024)

Haus Labs finally came to Sephora in Denmark back in March, so I picked up some products from the brand to try out.

For the face, I got the Triclone Skin Tech hydrating concealer in 03 Fair Rosy, the Bio-Radiant Gel-Powder highlighter in Peach Quartz, and the Color Fuse powder blushes in Dragon Fruit Daze and Hibiscus Haze.

I’m not sure how I feel about the concealer. First of all, I didn’t pick the best shade; it’s a little light. Second of all, I don’t think the coverage is that great.

The highlighter is quite pretty though, and I picked a shade that I normally wouldn’t pick, but I just thought it would be fun to try something a little different.

The blushes are propably my favourites from the brand that I’ve tried to far. Especially the shade Dragon Fruit Daze, which is such a fun, vibrant pink.

Lastly, I picked up a selection of different lip products. I got the PhD Hybrid lip oil in Hue, the Atomic Shake lip lacquer in Red Coral Shine, and the Le Monster lip crayon in Crimson Matte. I haven’t tried the lip oil yet, but I’ve heard good things about it. The Atomic Shake lip lacquer is a difficult lip product to use. I had to take it off twice, and then watch a Youtube video on how to apply it, before it worked for me, but when you apply it correctly it is very pretty on the lips. And I wore the Le Monster lip crayon to a wedding last month and was very happy with the finish, colour, and wear of the product.

5 favourites – June

Can you believe that we’re already half way through 2024?! I can’t. Once again, this past month has been a month of ups and downs, but luckily I’ve got all of July off, and I’m definitely in need of a holiday. I’m hoping for nice, sunny weather, but you never know when you live in Denmark. July is not always the best summer month weather wise. Anyways, I actually had a lot of favourites this month, but I did manage to narrow it down to five, so let’s talk about those.

Tank tops: A few years back I wasn’t really into wearing tank tops, but recently my collection of tank tops have grown, and I’ve worn them so often this past month, often underneath another layer, but also on their own when the weather was nice.

Big flower brooches: I’ve been wanting some Carrie Bradshaw like big flower brooches for so long, and I finally came across these two (and a couple more actually). Carrie Bradshaw is one of my biggest style icons, and she’s one of my main outfit inspirations this summer, so these flower brooches are must haves.

L’Oréal Glotion natural glow enhancer (shade: 901 Fair Glow): There are a lot of products like this on the market, and I own a couple of different ones, but this one sets itself apart from the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter and its dupes in both the packaging and application, but also when it comes to the shade. This L’Oréal one is more of a cool toned pinky shade, whereas the others I’ve tried are more champagne or golden champagne, so I like to have different options, and I do think that the L’Oréal Glotion is stunning.

Bobbi Brown Sheer Finish pressed powder (shade: Soft Porcelain): I have to admit that I purchased this powder mainly for the beautiful packaging, however, I’ve found out that it’s a beautiful powder. It’s very lightweight and it just makes you skin look good.

Bridgerton – season 1 (TV series): I know, I know. How did it take me so long to watch the first season of Bridgerton. I don’t really know, but I do know that I’m so glad that I finally started watching this series, because I was hooked right away. I’ve already started watching season 2, and I’m excited to continue to follow the Bridgerton family.

Zalando sale haul (March 2024)

I have a Zalando sale haul to share with you today. It includes one piece of clothing, two pairs of shoes, and some make-up bits.

The only clothing item in this haul is this shiny pink shirt from Monki, which I thought would be a nice layering piece.

These lime green mules are also from Monki. I already own them in dark grey denim, but I just love this kind of green colour so much, so I had to have this version as well.

You have no idea how much I wanted a pair of Jeffrey Campbell Litas back in the early 2010’s, but I was a teenager, and they were a little too expensive for me to buy back then. When I came across this multicoloured glitter pair at Zalando and saw that they were on sale, I purchased them immediately, and my teenage dream of owning a pair of Litas finally came true. I wore them in my latest outfit post.

Earlier this year MAC launched a collection based on their famous Teddy lipstick. I picked up the Lustreglass lipstick in Ready Teddy and the Deeply Teddy lip pencil. I’m wearing both on my lips here.

3ina makes really nice lip products. I had already tried the The Color Lip Glow formula and really liked it, so I picked up two more shades; 114 (Terracotta Brown) and 170 (Coral Red). I’d also been wanting to try the lipsticks just called The Lipstick, and I picked up the two shades 172 (Orange) and 430 (Cold Purple). These are very nice lipsticks too.

Lastly, I got the L’Oréal Infaillible 3-Second setting mist. I haven’t tried it yet, but I’m definitely intrigued by it.

Collective haul – make-up (March 2024)

I have a collective make-up haul to share with you today. I purchased these products back in March.

The e.l.f. Cosmetics Liquid Poreless Putty primer is one of my favourite primers, and I don’t want to run out of it without having a back-up ready.

The Pixi + Hello Kitty collection is by no means new, but I’d been intrigued by the Chrome Glow palette in Charming Glow, which is an all shimmer highligher and blush palette, and I have to say that I’ve been really enjoying it so far.

These next three products I purchased in a Sephora sale. I wasn’t sure I wanted to get the Natasha Denona Hy-Per Natural face palette, but as it was on sale, I picked it up. It’s a nice travel palette. On the other hand, I definitely wanted to pick up the Natasha Denona My Mini Dream glow blush. Isn’t is cute? I also got the Sephora Collection Soft Matte & Easy smooth matte lip colour in Yes And? 9, which is a pretty coral red shade.

From Essence I bought two of the Baby Got Blush liquid blushes, and they’re in the shades 10 Pinkalicious and 30 Dusty Rose. I also got The Slim Stick lipstick in 103 Brickroad, the Call Me Queen mascara, and the Brow Lifting gel set.

This is the Iconic London Multi-Use Cheek Glow Blush in Play Time, and it’s such a pretty, glowy blush. I’ve been really into glowy blushes lately.

Lastly, I just had to buy the Clarins Lip Comfort Oil Neon collection including three shades in 21 Joyful Yellow, 22 Daring Orange, and 23 Passionate Pink. The Clarins Lip Comfort Oil is one of my favourite lip oil formulas. And they smell incredible!

Collective haul – clothes (March 2024)

I have a collective clothes haul to share with you today. Everything in this haul was purchased on sale.

These beautiful dresses are from the Danish brand Crás, which is a brand that I’ve been really into lately. They make such fun and colourful pieces, and these dresses are no exception.

This dress is also from Crás and it’s so pretty and so flattering on.

I’ve already posted an outfit with this acid lime sweater vest, and I think it’s such a fun layering piece.

I’m a little obsessed with the blazers from Crás, and how stunning is this swim blue colour as it’s called?

I’m so obsessed with the Crás blazers that I also got one in pink, and for this one I also picked up matching trousers.

The last piece I got from Crás is this pastel, striped summer hat, and I think it’s adorable. I’m pretty sure, I’m going to bring this hat with me on summer holiday this year.

Here’s the only item I picked up from Asos. They’re flared trousers from the brand Reclaimed Vintage, and I’ve already got good use out of them.

The next handful of pieces are from H&M. I’m getting a lot of use out of these kinds of tank tops these days, so I’m glad to have added a white one and a tomato red one to my collection.

I’m really into olive green/swampy greens at the moment, so I love the colour of this shirt.

It’s not often that I add new belts to my wardrobe these days, but I thought this pink one would be a fun addition.

The next three (colourful) pieces are from a brand called YAS. I’ve been to two weddings this year, and I wore this beautiful maxi dress to the first one. I wasn’t sure if the style suited me, but I got so many compliments on my wedding guest look.

How fun is this shirt? I just love the colours!

This skirt is so me. I love the length, and I love the print.

This is just a nice, plain orange T-shirt that I bought on the same day as the three pieces from YAS. It’s from a brand called Kaffe, which means coffee in Danish.

The last three pieces are all second hand. It’s been nice to slowly get into second hand shopping again. My mum found this dress for me, and it’s really cute and quite different from anything else I own. I love the neckline.

I’ve already posted a look with this grey kilt skirt. I love finding fun pieces like this.

And speaking of fun pieces. This last piece might look like a green and navy tartan skirt, but it’s actually trousers. It’s finding these kinds of pieces that make second hand shopping so fun.

Sephora haul (February 2024)

I have a Sephora haul to share with you today. The haul includes new at the time products from R.E.M. Beauty and Natasha Denona.

I picked up three of the R.E.M. Beauty Hypernova satin matte blushes and one of the Hypernova satin matte bronzers.

These are the three blush shades I purchased (from left to right): Pinking of U, Skinny Dipped, and Peach Planet. Pinking of U wasn’t available at first, but when it came back in stock there was a 20% off deal on the Sephora app, so I obviously had to get it then. These are very nice blushes and I love the shades.

I picked up the lightest bronzer shade, which is called Send 2 Voicemail. I’m not quite sure how I feel about this shade and undertone yet.

I love most products from Natasha Denona, and I was definitely interested in this Berry Pop collection, but I’m glad I waited to pick it up until that 20% off deal.

This is the Berry Pop Cheek Trio – blush & highlighter palette. Isn’t it pretty?!

The small collection also included the Berry Pop lipstick and the Berry Pop lip crayon. I really enjoy both the lipsticks and lip crayons from Natasha Denona, and this berry colour looks really pretty.

Collective beauty haul (February 2024)

I have a collective beauty haul to share with you today. I purchased these products back in February.

This is the Laura Mercier Dawn Of Discovery illuminating set which includes a full size Blush Color Infusion in All That Sparkles and a mini Caviar Stick eye color in Strike A Pose. I’d been wanting to try the Laura Mercier blushes for a while, and this one is very pretty. The Caviar Stick is fine, but not my favourite.

Another product I’d been wanting to try ever since I first saw it is the Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Seeker highlighter in Pearl. It’s a limited edition release for the Lunar New Year, and it’s very pretty. I’m also excited to try the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze gel. I got a deluxe mini size.

The rest of the products in this haul are from Oden’s Eye. I made an order when the brand released the Legendary Diversa II collection. I picked up the three collab palettes from the collection; the Oden’s Eye x Fancy Face Earth Wood palette, the Oden’s Eye x Annette Obrestad Mighty Monster palette, and the Oden’s Eye x JUDY Spring Dragon palette. I’ve created beautiful looks with all three palettes.

With the three palettes I received a key ring, a refrigerator magnet, and a scarf.

I didn’t pick up any of the lip products from the Legendary Diversa II collection, but I did pick up three of the lip products from the Helaween + Angelica collection from last Halloween. I got two of the matte liquid lipsticks in the shades Shadow Creature and Swamp Fog and one of the shine lipglosses in the shade Quicksand.

The last product I picked up was the Norn’s Mesmerizer highlighter in Web Of Destiny, and it’s super pretty.
