♡ Cosmetic Haul from Tokyo ♡ mini review

Hi! I'm back with a cosmetic haul with the cosmetics I got In Tokyo when I was there last summer. You guys seemed to like the other one from the time I was In Japan before this trip so I figured I would share what I got this time too! If you have not seen the first one you can find it here!
This is a overview of most of what I got, I forgot to include some of the things in this picture, but you can see those items further down in the post.
1 Day Tattoo K-Palette eyeliner ♡ I grabbed the pencil liner by accident when I reached for the liquid liner that I have gotten recommended by my friends. I ended up giving the pencil liner to one of my friends, and went back and got the Liquid one that I wanted. And it is soooo good! I ended up buying two more to have as a backup to when I run out of. That's how much I like it, It stays on all day long without any smudging. You can get it pretty much everywhere they sell make-up.
 Hand Whip Aqua Curtain ♡ Thit is such a weird name on a brand/hand cream. But I got this super cute hand cream from one of the stores in Laforet, I don't remember the name of the store. I haven't used this one that much because it was a little expensive, but I couldn't resist the packaging. But it's a really thick and nice smelling hand cream.
Dear Darling Tint Etude House ♡ I got this lip tint in the shade #3, it's a orang tone tint. I love this so much, I have used it every single day since I got it, and is on my second bottle already. I wish that it wore a little longer. My lips get really dry from it, but I like it so much anyway. I'm going to get more shades next time I'm in Japan.
Aube Couture 551 ピンク ♡ I have not really tried this out yet, I have only swatched it a little and it is really pigmented and beautiful. I mainly got this for that pale shimmer eyeshadow.
Orgasm Nars ♡ Nars is not a Japanese brand, but I can't get Nars in my country, so I was really looking forward to get these. This blush is so beautiful and it really sits on all day long. I have really long days some days of the week with university and work, and sometimes have to wear make-up for 14+ hours and it still looks like I just put it on in the end of the day. I want to get one more blush from Nars that is a matt, because I don't feel the gold shimmer in the orgasm-named one everyday.
Snow Nars ♡ This loose powder is really good too. I use it all the time and hold's my makeup in place.
Dolly Wink Lashes ♡ These are not hard to find either, you can pretty mush find them in every makeup stores, or donkihote. I got nr.1 and nr.9 I wish that I got one more package of nr.9 because they look so good. The dolly wink lashes is more expensive, but they are so good quality and the last a really long time.
Value Pack ♡  Those are from donkihote, I have not tried them on yet.
False eyelashed ♡  These are from Daiso, I'm not the bigest fan of them because the are a little too stiff for my liking.
 Sailor Moon Pure series Sho-bi ♡ I have not had the heart to open these yet. But I got Sailor Mars and Sailor Venus lashes from IT'S DEMO.
Rosa Rosa ポイント ♡ I got these pointed q-tips last time I was in Japan too, They are so perfect to clean up make-up mistakes, and they are individually packed so it's easy to keep some with you on the go.
Tsum Tsum Bath bomb ♡ I got this bath bomb on the konbini on the train station near Disneyland. I have not used it yet, but I look forward too it.
Art Mask Marie ♡ I got this face mask at a Disney store, I really love marie from the Aristocats, so I had to pick this up when I saw it. I have not used this one yet either.
Oil Blotting Paper ♡ I got these blotting papers at daiso. I don't really have oily skin, but it was nice to have while in Japan because it is so humid there. and I didn't want to ruin my make-up.
Thank you so much for reading, I hope you enjoyed! Feel free to leave a comment, I always reply! I'm thinking about making a stationary haul next week, because I got su much cute stationary and stickers.

Tokyo Beauty Haul ♡


I came back from Tokyo, Japan, a ccouple of days ago. I had an amazing time, and will blog about that later. But first I want to share some of the things that I got in separate posts. So I'm starting with sharing all the beauty stuff I picked out in Tokyo.
 Here are the lashes I got. The one in the middle is lashes from the brand Dolly Wink, they are a bit more expensive, but I've always wanted a pair, and the price wasn't that bad for two pair so I got myself a pair to se if I like them. And the rest of the lashes are from daiso so they where only a ¥100 each. I use lashes every day so 7 pairs of lashes isn't really that much I think. But I'm excited to see how much I like them and if they are worth to keep buying.


 I also got some masks for my face, because my skin is really dry and I like using them in the winter. But I went by Etude House, which is a Korean brand, and picked up pear and a bamboo masks, because them seemed interesting. And they where only ¥150 each. The Yellow package in the bottom is also from Etude House, and it's a 2 pack of nose strips ans a sample of a serum. They also gave me two more free samples of an emulsion, which I don't really know what is. And I pickes up a snake venom mask and a strawberry milk mask from a drug store called Ainz & Tulpe, because they seemed interesting


I got a black head face mask from daiso as well, it was as everything else there only ¥100, so I wanted to give it a try. The sunscreen is from Etude House, it is SPF50, and you can spray it on top of your make-up and you don't have to rub it in! And I got a Sailor Moon eyeliner, I got it in a store cooperating with sailor moon on a beauty line for the series 20th anniversary! This one was a bit more expensive because I wanted it with the moon stick top. But if you don't care about that you can get it cheaper without the top all around Tokyo. The black pen thing is a eye shadow stick form Etude House, and it is in a champange color. To the top right is a pair of grey lenses I picked up kind of impulsive because I liked the design, but realized when I got back to the hotel that they where only 14.5mm in diameter, which is really small, I prefer 15mm - 16mm. And just a light blue nail polish from Etude House and a Perfume stick from Lush. You can only get the perfume stick in Japan. It smells fresh and nice so I picked it up.


 I got a traveling kit from Etude House for free because I spent more than ¥2000 there. And some q-tips with a more edgy end which are great to clean up your make-up if I make a misstake. I picked up the spray container from daiso before I got the free set from Etude House, so I don't really need it, but it's nice to have a spare one. And last I got a container where I put my liquid make-up remover in, and you just lay a cotton pad on the top and press down and it has a pump that sprays the cotton pad wet without spilling or anything. It's really clever and it is much easier to get make-up remover on the cotton pad that way!

 

And last but not least I picked up two bath bombs. The Sailor Moon one is from the same store I got the eyeligner from, and the blue one is from Lush. I can get Lush stuff here in Norway, but it was a lot cheaper in Japan so I picked up one. 
So that was it for my beauty haul. It is kinda hard to buy cosmetics in Japan because I don't understand what most of the products are for. So it's best to do some reaserch on what the different type of products are for and find out what to look for before you go shopping. I think I will do so next time. But I'm happy with what I got, and I'm looking forward to try it all! Thank you so much for reading, and stay tuned for more hauls and other posts about Tokyo!♡

Monthly Favorites May ♡

Ohayou~ This is another monthly favorite post, if you want to read my April favorite post, you can read it here! I want to share my favorite products and anime from this month, starting off with my favorite beauty products.
1. Sex bomb ♥ This is a bath bomb from Lush, you put it in your bathtub and the water turns pink and has a really fresh and romantic smell.  Bath bombs are so much fun and Lush have many many great ones. This one is one of the more romantic ones, so it is perfect if you want to take a romantic bath with the one you love ♡

2. Cherry blossom body lotion ♥ This is a body lotion from The Body Shop. It has a lovely smell of Japanese cherry blossom (sakura), the smell is really mild and gentle. I like to use this on my arms after the shower, and it gives me a fresh and gentle smell. I love the smell and the hydration it gives me, I want more from this Japanese cherry blossom series!

3. Sexy Look blackhead ♥ This is a black head nose strip from Sexy Look, I've heard it is a Japanese brand, but I'm not really sure (I got mine from ebay). Anyway, you get three products, the first one is a liquid you put on your nose to open the pores. The second one is the mask, and the third one is another liquid you put on to close the pores again. I think this is a really great nose strip and it really gets to your black heads.

4. Strawberry feels forever ♥ This is a massage bar from Lush which melts when you rub it on your skin. I like to use mine on my legs after I have shaved using my D`Fluff shaving soap. It feels really good and it leaves a lovely strawberry smell. It honestly smells amazing! I love this! (I love strawberries, which is why I love this so much I think)

5. D`Fluff ♥ This is a strawberry shaving soap from Lush that really gets the job done! This shaving soap has cocoa butter in it so it won't dry out your skin and helps keep post-shave redness to a minimum. I haven't used any other shaving soaps after I started using this, it feels nice on my skin and smells lovely♡ And it is perfect with the Strawberry massage bar. (Can't get enough strawberry)
When I want to relax at night or in the morning, I like to watch slice of life and comedy anime. This month I have been watching Nichijou (日常) a lot.
I'm only half way through but this anime is so much fun, it is very exaggerated and I have a good laugh when I watch this. You just follow some high school students around in their daily life and some other beople.It shows the silly situations the characters get involved in, but despite its bizarre settings and characters, they still lead normal lives. It's a great comedy.
 I hope you liked this post about my motnthly May favorites, If you like you could tell me some of you May favorites in the comment!

Monthly Favorites April ♡


Hello~ I'm back with another post! In this post I want to share my favorite beauty products and anime from this month! This is my first monthly favorite post, so I hope you'll like it! I'm starting off with my favorite beauty products.
1.Erase Paste ♥ I have always loved this product from Benefit, but I've been using it like crazy this month because lack of sleep during my finals at school. It's a paste you are supposed to use under your concealer to hide your dark circles. It really works and I'm madly in love with this product. It also works really well without concealer if you don't like to wear that much on you face.

2.Primed Poreless ♥ This is also a product I have been loving for a while, but it's been extra helpful this month! It's a primer from Too Faced, you wear it underneath all you makeup, and it smoothens out your skin and your face makeup last longer! Also the packaging is adorable!

3.Pumpkin Sleeping Pack ♥ This was a gift from my boyfriend, he got it for me in South-Korea. He went in to a beauty store and picked it up because he knows I love pumpkin and surprised me with it when he got home, how cute is that?♥ I t's a night cream by Too Cool For School, I put it on after I washed my face at night, it is so nice and it has a lovely and gentle pumpkin smell, I really love it!

4.Helping Hands ♥ This hand cream from Lush is so nice, I really love the container, because it's in a can, it's so much easier to take the right amount of cream. It also leaves your hands moisturized for a long time, and it smells nice.
5.Batiste Original ♥ I hate to shower in the mornings, so if I wake up with greasy hair I just spray this Batiste Dry Shampoo in my hair and it looks and smells fresh! It's just amazing!
I want to share my favorite anime of this month as well, it's called Parasyte -The Maxim- / kiseijuu: Sei no kakuritsu / 寄生獣セイの格率. It just ended in April and I LOVED IT SO MUCH (It made me cry so much tho). I've always wanted to read the manga, but the drawings in it didn't impress me that much so I never did, but when the anime came out I started watching it right away, and I immediately got hooked!
So it's about this ordinary boy Shinichi who is a high school student. Parasytes are invading Tokyo and taking over peoples minds and start feeding on other humans. Shinichi somehow manages to stop one parasyte from going into his brain, and it ends up being stuck in his right arm. They become friends and Shinichi names the parasyte Migi (migi is right in japanese). It's got horror and drama, following his life as a half-human half-parasyte and it's also a really cute love story between Shinichi and Satomi (The girl in the photo).
I hope you liked this post! And please leave a comment with your favorites of this month!♥

Valentines Outfit Inspiration

 

Valentine is coming up soon! It's one of my many favorite days, another excuse to dress up. And another excuse to be spend some romantic time with your boyfriend/girlfriend. 

If you haven't decided on what to wear yet, here is some of my inspiration!



These three dresses are sexy, cute and elegant, which is the style I personally really like. Dresses that highlight your waist gives a really good shape to any kind of bodies.
High Waist ♡ Slim ♡ Ruffle Skirt
You don't have to wear a dress, you can also wear a top and a skirt, shorts or pants if you prefer. White and red looks SO good together, and a little red looks extra cute on Valentine's Day! You can mix and match with color and shapes, this is just some inspiration.

 White Platforms ♡ Pink Lace-up       
Deciding on shoes can be hard sometimes, but even though high heels look amazing, you always have to think of where you are going. Platforms also give you a slimmer and taller leg "effect", so by choosing platforms, you can look dressed up, but still be much more comfortable than to walk around wearing high heels.


My last tip is, wear a red-toned nail polish. Last years Valentine's Day I wore a navy blue nail polish and I regret it so much, because it just wasn't the right color that day for my outfit.

 Here is a little photo of my boyfriend and I from last years Valentine's Day, we look pretty cute together!♡

Hope you liked it and that you found it helpful if you haven't decided on what to wear yet! Also, all the links to find the items used in this post are posted under the pictures!
