Hi my lovely readers! I decided to make a quick review of Chanel's Black pearl -nail polish.
Texture/formula: 7/10
Kind of streaky and uneven. However if you put just a little bit more effort to the application it will be ok. After a second coat you can still see the brush marks but it won't be too bad.
After one coat
After two coats
After two days of wear without topcoat
Longevity: 7/10
Without a topcoat this polish started to chip off on the second day of wear, as you can see from the picture above. So, nothing amazing here.
Overall: 7/10
The color is pretty, and I think the name describes the color perfectly. However the formula and longevity could be improved. The brush is just like any other Chanel brush, kind of square shape which I don't really like, since my cuticles are round. So, it's a nice nail polish but not my top choice for easy application process.
Thanks so much for reading, feel free to leave a request on the comment section down below! :)
Me and 27 other Finnish beauty bloggers decided to have a gathering last Saturday. Our host was the beautiful Sensaisti. The gathering was just AWESOME! It was so much fun to meet my blogger friends I rarely get to see. The food was absolutely delicious and the place so pretty!
All this food *___* Nomnomnom
I'm still drooling after Ilona's mocha bites (which are not shown in the pic though xD)
Guess who joined to the Lyyli-fanclub? Isn't she just the cutest little chihuahua ever?
Our host had such a nice surprise for us - a huge gift bag full of amazing cosmetic items! I was in cloud nine! I'm so looking forward to testing all these wonderful products! :)
That was just crazy, huh?! I feel so lucky and blessed for receiving all that amazing stuff, thanks again Sensaisti and the companies who were so generous to us!
Now, here are just a few pics from the memorable night...
Hi my lovely readers!
Guess what? I finally got my hands on the oh-so-hyped NAKED 3 palette! AAAHHH IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL! I have a feeling this one might become my new favorite over my original Naked-palette. I don't really love Naked 2, but some shades are awesome in that palette.
Lets just admire the beauty of this item *__*
This palette is full of magic :*
A dual-ended brush that comes with the palette
Small UDPP-samples
The Naked 3 & a rose gold bottle of fairy dust from Sini :* They kinda match, huh?
I am going to make a video review including of all three Naked palettes, Lorac Pro palette and NudeTude palette from the Balm.
Stay tuned for that, and have a magical day!
Hi my lovely readers!
The year 2013 was awesome! Quite many of my dreams actually came true last year.
I had dreamed of seeing Cirque De Soleil's Alegria live ever since I was just a little girl. In spring 2013 I went to see it with my best friend. It was totally worth the hype!
Can you spot my orange suitcase?
I went to New York - the city of dreams - in April. The trip itself was a dream come true, but seeing The Lion King on Broadway, seeing NHL-game live, attending IMATS (& meeting JulieG and other beauty gurus) and strolling around in Tiffany & co. were nice additions ;)
In July, I also went to Nice, and that was such a nice trip as well. Hehhheheh I'm just hilarious, huh :P
Hello, this is my orange suitcase again
I also graduated from a cosmetologist school and now I am a CIDESCO-, SKY-cosmetologist :)
My little sister & me on my graduation day
I got to work on quite many exciting events last year. I met many Finnish celebrities and working with them was lovely. One of my favorite working experiences was the ice hockey championships that were held in Helsinki (and Stockholm).
Hi, I'm Pauliina and I'm feeling AWESOME!!
This was awesome too!
Of course, in 2013 there were some bad days too. Two of my relatives and one family friend passed away, and that wasn't easy to deal with. They are in a better place now <3
Top 3 random things I've loved to do: 1. Meeting new people
Last year I met some damn awesome people! Sini has became a very dear friend of mine, and through her I met my adorkable boyfriend. I loved spending time with my friends and family, who I love so very much. I also met Ronja, who seems such a lovely person, hopefully I'll be seeing her in 2014 again! :)
Sininiii <3
Ronja :)
2. Moving and learning to live on my own
I didn't move far away from my childhood home - just across the street actually xD However even this slight move has made me much more independent person. And it's handy that I can go & steal some milk from my old home if I'm out of mine and don't have time to go buy some.
3. Burning candles
I wasn't allowed to burn scented candles on my childhood home because of my little brother's asthma. Now that I'm living on my own I can burn as many candles as I want!!! Muahhhahhhahhhh!!!!!
Oh god I so fell in love with Phildel's music! Her voice immediately catched my attention and oh how I just love her music! Definitely my new favorite artist ever!
I hope year 2013 was as awesome for you as it was for me - if not, remember that everything will get better this year <3
Thanks for reading, I appreciate all of you so much! Have a magical new year!
Hello my lovely readers!
On Saturday 14th of December I turned 21 years old.
I remember thinking "Lol, when I'm the same age as Forever 21, I will be so old!"back when I was seventeen years old… The time really does fly.
I have been an adult for three years in Finland, but now I'd be considered as an adult in the USA too.
I live on my own now. I work, and buy my own groceries.
It's just crazy.
I don't feel like an adult though. When I'm with my relatives I usually hang out with the kids instead of the adults xD I am still learning to drink normal coffee. I still listen to Disney music and watch Disney movies.
Me & my cute relatives
But sometimes it's awesome to be an adult. You get to decide what you do, and when you do it.
I just bought a white christmas tree for myself and put it up. When I lived with my parents we always put up a real tree on 23rd of December, even though I always wanted to put it up earlier.
