Sometimes you just need a break.

If you follow my blog you might have noticed that there isn't a lot of action here at the moment. This is caused by a lack of inspiration. I don't know why exactly but sometimes life just gets in the way.

My lack of inspiration has also been reflected in my makeup and I haven't worn a lot of makeup lately. Most of the time I have worked on my base trying to look as flawless as possible. The only things that I have been wearing lately are concealer and powder foundation. I have been using my samples of Lily Lolo foundation that I bought a while ago and so far I love this stuff. I am definitely buying a full size jar of this when I run out of my samples. I just have to decide which color to buy.

This is just a temporary phase that I am going through and I plan to be active here again in October. I want to take some time to find my inspiration again and sometimes it's best to just take a break.

I want to take the time to thank everyone that reads my blog. This is still a very small blog and I write this blog because I love to share my love for makeup and beauty with you. Therefore I am grateful that you take the time to read my blog.

Thank you

Graffiti Nails

The Graffiti Nails Polishes from Isadora has definitely been talked about on the Swedish Beauty Blogs. It almost seems that everyone who has a beauty blog here in Sweden has talked about this. Well, I couldn't resist doing the same. At first I thought that they weren't that special and I didn't like the look. But of course I came around and got myself one polish in 803 Masterpiece Pink.

So what are a Graffiti Nail Polish? This is a polish that is meant to be worn on top of another polish. When it dries cracks are formed in the polish and you can see the polish underneath. I have to admit that it makes a fun manicure but it isn't very good looking.

I did this on one finger with another polish called 65 Smoky Grey underneath . I picked this up the same day that I got the Grafitti nails polish and this is definitely a winner. The application is perfect and you get almost a perfect nail on the first coat. The color is a dark creme gray and this will be perfect for fall.


I only used the Graffiti Nails on one finger because I wasn't sure that I would like it and to be honest I didn't. I had this image of a perfect manicure in my head and this wasn't the look that I was going for.

On the other fingers I am wearing Maple Street by Nails Inc. London.
