Beauty Favorites | New video

Just uploaded a brand new video after a seven month hiatus. Phew. I'm shocked at how easy it is to edit on my MacBook so I felt a little something inside that makes me want to post more. Now. Or tomorrow. Or very, very soon. Here's what I was wearing in the video:

Dress from nelly.com
H&M necklace gifted from my colleages
Nail polish is L'Oreal Island In The Sun
Half Baked, High, Beware, Riff and Buck eyeshadow from UD
24/7 Perversion liquid liner from UD
Urban Decay Trap lashes
Urban Decay Sheer Obsessed lipstick

Oh, I also dyed my hair back to pastels. Really liking this purple/pink combo right now. I will probably always return to these colors I think. 

Face of the day & new video

I'm starting to feel Valentines Day coming up, so having my pink hair back for a short while is kinda perfect for these next days. I kept my face sort of simple, but with a touch of drama on the eyes. 

Eyebrows: MAC Charcoal Brown & Espresso
Eyes: Maybelline Snow White eyeshadow, MAC Vanilla pigment, MAC Espresso eyeshadow, L'Oreal liner, Elizabeth Arden Mascara and Ardell lashes
Lips: MAC Saint Germain
Face: Gosh Porcelain foundation, MAC Silver Dusk, MAC Charcoal shadow for contour, Rimmel Stay Matte powder

Also just posted a new video about a Valentines Day live show, so watch down below for more details about it.

Current music love

I have been listening to a lot of peaceful, cheerful, slightly electronic music lately. No idea why, but it put's me in this certain mood that has made me so happy the past few weeks. There's a few great channels on youtube that only post music like this and my favorites are thesoundyouneed and majestic casual. Here's a bunch of my most listened to tracks, I really recommend this music if you're feeling stressed or just need something to chill too. 

Bought myself a christmas present!

Eeeep, I really spoiled myself this year and now I'm just too excited to function at all! It took me quite a lot of debating (yes, I was debating with myself) before I decided to actually order this beauty, but the fact that I have had a pretty poopy year and that I've also been really good at saving money lately made me feel like this was an okay present to give myself. It's kind of an investment when you think about, right? Haha, at least I keep telling myself. My blog will be filled with beautiful, personal photos again with everything from a lot more outfit posts, makeup looks, recipes for yummy foods and snacks I love, DIY post and hopefully a lot more inspiration - I haven't had my own camera since the late summer of 2011 before my digital camera stopped working while trying to film my first Androgenetics video as a weekly member. The day after I just bought a random JVC camcorder and totally forgot how much I needed a camera for photos as well, I guess you can say I just really needed to update my blogger gear, hehehe. If you back to before september 2011 my blog had a lot more personal content and I so, so miss that! I ordered the camera late on thursday, so it should be here either today or tomorrow and I just can't wait, goodness me!

I decided to go with the Canon EOS 600D/Rebel T3i after many hours of research as I like the quality of the pictures and it's video functions, but it also seems to be a top favorite amongst beauty bloggers who do both blogs and youtube. Also I have been eyeing this camera for about a year and a half now and I haven't really found anything that feels just as right as this baby. So I'm not just babbling for fun when I say that my break from youtube and blogging is over soon, I have so much new inspiration, content, plans and lastly I MISS you guys so much! Will update about the camera as soon as it arrives. Eeeep, again.

Interview by CopenHype

I was interviewed by the sweet Danika from CopenHype at the KEA event last month. I find it so incredibly funny how obvious my champagne buzz is! It was such a lovely night, but if you need a laugh my interview is around around 02:13. 

Yellow hair

I recently changed up my hair and in the need of something new I went yellow!
This is a perfect color for fall, I've already had so much fun with it, so my plans of going neon lime green will have to wait for a while. Also the three winners of my giveaway was announced in the video down below ♥


   

Three braided hairstyles

   

I finally got around to film my braided hair tutorial - I love braids that are simple and easy to do, and that's really what this video is about! Also this lovely blogger featured my video on her (pink!) blog, so a big thank you for that ♥

Photo diary of my first week in Copenhagen

The first week here in Copenhagen has passed - I've been hanging out with new an old friends and been out on adventures trying to explore the city, finding my way around is getting a lot easier! I've been at Ungdomshuset with Maja, had a very tired movienight with Alex watching Coffee & Cigarettes and on friday Lars made me the yummiest potatoburger to cure my hangovers. I'm currently in bed with a new hangover after yesterdays shenanigans :( I just never learn, huh?

   

Summer outfits & giveaway winner

I finally got around to announce the winner of my giveawaaaay! Exciting! Hopefully it wont be too long until my next giveaway. I also included two lovely romwe outfits so the video wouldn't be too boring. Oh and you can see what I meant about my new shoes not being able to close properly :( 

DIY barbie vest & outfit of the day

eBay earrings - DIY barbie vest - second hand shirt - romwe skirt

I have been working on this vest for a while whenever I was bored and I'm really pleased with the result! It's perfect for spring and summer and to spice up boring outfits, and DIY projects like these are fun to do because you make personal items that only you have. I've also been wearing my hair in braids a lot lately like I seem to do every summer, so I will have a new video up about it next week ♥

Festival vlog & giveaway

As promised here is a little vlog about my time at Roskilde Festival + a giveaway for a luxaddiction.com phone cover of your choice. Feel free to watch for more details and information ♥ If you're wondering what I'm wearing here's the outfit post!

Plndr haul + outfits

Last month karmaloop.com's sister company plndr.com sent me a huge package filled with pretty items, some that you guys have already seen and others that I'm showing you here in my new video. I did a sort of mixture between a newins/haul + outfit of the day video so it would't be too boring to watch, but I completely forgot to post it here as well. Feel free to watch the video for more information on plndr ♥

My everyday foundation routine

As I told you guys my new video is my foundation tutorial that has been requested a lot over the past two years. It's really easy, simple and affordable and the foundation I've been using for years.

What's you guys' favorite foundation?

VIDEO WEEK

I've been doing another video week and decided to start with an easy hair tutorial on two minute curls. This has been one of my most used hairstyles for a while because it literally takes two minutes but still looks like you've spent time actually doing your hair.

Tuesday I was feeling sassy and decided to teach you guys how to properly twerk your booty.. Or make a complete fool out of myself. Either way, the weather was nice and I had a lot of fun - like the old people who live around me probably did too when they realized what I was doing - and on top of that my video was put on www.watchmetwerk.com, what an honor. I don't think they realized that this was ment to be a joke though.

On wednesday I posted a lookbook that I've been working on for a while, a few online shops have been sending me clothes and I included some of that to share some of my favorites outfits this spring. I probably will be doing more lookbooks again soon.

Thursday was another non-beauty video, and I did the 15 weird facts about me tag. I always like doing these tag videos, but rarely make them anyway.. I should probably work on that.

On friday I did a requested tutorial on the hair I wore in my goodbye video for Androgenetics. I have been loving this 70's Barbie hair for a while even though I rarely use that much hairspray - it's a lot of fun though. Just felt like posting the videos on here as well ♥

MY LITTLE PONY RAINBOW HAIR

As I mentioned earlier I was uploading a new video - a tutorial on this rainbow hair. I felt like adding loads of color to celebrate spring because I'm so excited for the weather to get better and the days to get longer and warmer. I've had rainbow hair a lot of times before actually, one of my rituals of boredom is to add colors to my hair, but this time it's more full on and planned.

I noticed people comparing this to something other people have done before and pointing it out in a sort of rude way, and it's funny to me how busy people are judging and comparing others, instead of considering different people's personal style evolution. I feel like my style is constantly changing, evolving and I do it because I have fun with it. I still love the same things I did 5 years ago, I've just opened my mind to a lot of new things too.

DOOMSDAY

So last night the world was ending, but not really, so I decided to dress nicely and look really pretty since it was my last day in the world as we know it. I spend my night filming a doomsday survival guide for Androgenetics and went to bed super late after I had watched my Sex & The City christmas calendar on TV. You can see the video I'm talking about right here -

SPIKED CAP GIVEAWAY

Last night I reached 14.000 subscribers on my youtube channel and wanted to do a small giveaway to thank everyone for watching, supporting and being a part of it all, so I decided to give away one of the very popular spiked caps since they are very unisex and something a lot of people would be able to wear.

I hope you will have fun and be a part of this giveaway. All the rules and details are in the video, so please watch for more information - good luck, everyone!

Last Minute Halloween Makeup + DIY Fake Blood!

I decided that I had to do better on the halloween videos this year so I wanted to show you guys how to easily get a creative and scary look for all the halloween parties without having to spend a lot of time and effort doing it. It's basically made from old makeup laying around and stuff most people can find in their kitchen. And let's be honest, who doesn't love being covered in blood and makeup a few times a year? Fake blood, that is..

LONDON PHOTO DIARY

I'm sorry, I'm sorry I am aware that I've been home from London one week today, but I honestly have no excuses as to why this has only been posted now. Boo. So as a first time visiter in England there were a few things I simply just had to try, for example my first fish & chips, my first Skittles and also my first real Starbucks in Selfridges. The first thing I noticed after arriving in London was how beautiful and much more detailed and special all the houses were, here in Denmark most houses look very boring, but the architecture in London was so fascinating. We went to a Combichrist concert at the Electric Ballroom and had a nice first night out in London, we also went to a barbecue on my birthday and the day before I left we spent most of the night at a bar called Tranny Shack, I've never been in a place with so many men in dresses, long hair and drag queens performing. It was amusing. 

All in all I had a wonderful week visiting my friends Michael and Sphirex and I'm planning on going back sometime next year. I also posted three video diaries of my time there on my youtube channel so if you feel like watching more, feel free to go have a look :)

VIDEO KILLED THE RADIOSTAR

Since I haven't been that good at updating my blog after arriving in London I thought I would share all of the videos we've been filming instead of just posting my instagram photos on here (my instagram name is sebastiansimonxo by the way) Last night I turned 19 and was celebrating it by drinking most of a bottle of rum. Myself. I'm also starting to look forward to getting home, I really miss my boyfriend a lot, but the next two days will probably fly so fast anyway. We're going properly shopping in Central London, properly go out for a few drinks and then we should probably get a good nights sleep tomorrow night.

I'll be back with more videos and photos soon, we're gonna have a movie night and recover from hangovers tonight. Have fun loveliessss
