Ice cold

dsc_1753dsc_1757

In January I finally got my hands on the Jeffree Star Skin Frost in the shade Ice Cold. I’d been wanting it for so long, and I’m so glad it’s finally mine. It can be hard to find highlighters as light and intense as this one, so I can only recommend it especially if you have fair skin.

Metallic silver wing

5 favourites – January

The first month of 2017 has already come to an end. Times flies by so fast. My January was mainly exam studying, choir rehearsals and performances, and then I had a bit of time off before the new semester started this week. I hope you all had a great start to the new year, and now let’s talk about some favourites.

dsc_1678

MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot in Groundwork: Because I’ve been studying for my exam most of January my make-up routine has been quick and easy, and this cream eye shadow has been the main thing I’ve worn on my eyes. It’s perfect as a base or on it’s own.

dsc_1290

Jeffree Star Skin Frost in Peach Goddess: This has been my go-to highlighter in January. It’s a beautiful rose gold-ish colour which almost matches my skin and is therefore less intense on the skin, but still glowy and beautiful (it’s difficult to explain) and I’ve been loving that look.

the-sims-4-city-living

The Sims 4 City Living (computer game): I got the newest expansion pack for The Sims 4 for Christmas, and I’ve been playing it pretty much whenever I had the time. I love playing The Sims so much; it’s one of my favourite pastimes.

footloose-movie-still-1984-660x330

Footloose (film): I’ve watched so many good films this month and the one that started it all was Footloose (the original one of course). It’s just one of those classics that I’d been wanting to watch for ages, and I’m so glad I finally got around to it, because it was great.

Night Driver – Busted (album): Another one of my Christmas presents was Busted’s newest album. As I’ve mentioned before I’m a huge Busted fan, so I was extremely excited to listen to this album. Even though it’s very different from the music they used to make I still absolutely love it. Above you can listen to the song with this same title as the album, Night Driver, which is one of my many favourite songs from the album.

Face palettes

dsc_1689dsc_1692dsc_1696

Between Christmas and New Year’s I went to Copenhagen to spend time with family, but I also had time to stop by Sephora. I wasn’t supposed to spend a lot of money, so I just got two things. The NARS Sarah Moon Cheek & Lip palette in True Story was on sale and I’ve never tried NARS blushers (or highlighters), so I thought this was a good way to try them out. The colours in the palette are beautiful and as you can see it also came with a Velvet Matte lip pencil which I’m looking forward to try out. Then I had to get the Sleek Highlighting palette in Solstice which every major beauty youtuber talked about in 2016, and I have to say that it’s worth the hype. They’re some of the most intense highlighters I’ve tried and they’re so beautiful.
