All Star Eyeshadow Palette
You know I love eyeshadow palettes, but what if I could build my own? What if eyeshadows were players to select to play together in a sport’s team? Which ones would play together well? What color story would I go for? How would it all work together? With just one shadow per palette to pick,…
Creating Fantasy Palettes
If I had to pick a favorite makeup item, then you know it would be eyeshadow. Up to 2019, I was mainly focusing on buying stand alone palettes. But last year I wanted to try more indie brands and a lot of their shadow is only available as single pans. So I became more focused…
GRWM: New Bits, Loves & Staples
As you may know, I try to do a get ready with me video once a month. Usually I select some of my single eyeshadow to use, but this month I thought we could do it differently. I wanted to update you on some products that are in my shop my stash, some new products…

My Blue/ Green/ Purple Palette
What do you do when you want a blue/ green/ purple palette but no brand is currently making one? You make one yourself! That’s exactly what I did in early 2019. By now I have played around with these shadows enough: I did multiple looks, swatched everything, used shades separately and just got a good…
Perfume Collection 2020
It’s been 1.5 years since I showed my perfume collection and there has been a massive change since then. When I first showed my collection in 2018, I was on the verge of a changeover. Prior to that video, I had been on a search for finding out what I like in terms of fragrance….

3 Looks 1 Palette // Tarte Tartelette In Bloom
Thursday = video time and I realized I hadn’t done a 3 looks 1 palette in a while. These videos just take a bit of time to film and organize and I just hadn’t had the time. Today’s video features the Tarte Tartelette In Bloom eyeshadow palette. It is one of my favorite neutral, everyday…

2019 Makeup Empties
Happy New Year! To kick off the new year, I am starting with a look back on 2019. Because last year I saved up every single makeup products I used up. I used to just show my makeup empties in my regular beauty empties videos/ blog posts, but I thought it would be cool how…

If I Could Keep Only 10 Eyeshadow Palettes
Ah I’m back! I’ve been missing a few uploads this week as Christmas Break is nearing and life always gets a bit hectic if you work in education and you’re close to a major break. So I cannot guarantee regular uploads for the rest of this week as I am essentially pooped and just can’t…
Tag Tuesday // 2019 Makeup Releases & 2020 Predictions
Since we’re nearing the end of the year, I thought it would be fun to do some content to wrap up 2019. I knew I wanted to talk about my makeup goals & wishes for the new year and then I spotted Angelica Nyqvist do a tag to look back on the old year and…
Empty Products // December 2019
Today it is time for a video that is long overdue. Because I haven’t done an empty products video in months. I just wasn’t using up much at all and then I used up everything at once. Is that just me or does this happen for more people? In any case, I used up quite…

In today’s video I am trying something new! I bought two mini foundations by Benefit over the summer. They revamped their foundation line and rebranded it to be called Hello Happy.

Fall Skincare Update + New In
We’re in the midst of fall so that means it is time to review my skincare routine. For two reasons: my skin needs are different from the summer time and I have been super lazy when it comes to my skincare. So it is time to get back into the swing of things. I also…
Focallure Review // 3 Palette Review
Today’s video is a special one. This is a video on a new to me makeup brand: Focallure. This Chinese makeup brand contacted me whether they could send me some products to try and for me to do a video on it. Since I already featured one of their palettes in one of my Buy…
Cult Palettes I Don’t Own

Tag Tuesday // The Boujee Guru Tag
It’s Tuesday!! Which mean it is time for this month’s Tag Tuesday. One tag I saw going around that I loved was The Boujee Guru Tag. When you are ‘boujee’ it means that you prefer expensive products over more affordable ones. What you prefer does not only depend on what you like, but of course…

In today’s video I get a little bit ranty about makeup expiration dates. I see so many people chucking perfectly fine makeup products that have ‘expired’. So I decided to do this video about expiration dates and I how I go about it. I have quite some older products in my collection that I am…
Ranking Face Palettes
A video I promised to do ages ago, but only now end up doing is the ranking of my face palette collection. I have quite a few, but the thing is: I never wear them! I mostly use them whenever I travel but I don’t travel enough to really have a use for this many….
