This summer two new sunscreens hit the market and This summer two new sunscreens hit the market and here’s my 3 month review. ☀️

👉🏼 Vichy came out with a tinted version of their UV Age daily fluid. I found it strange as the original doesn’t leave a white cast. But I was on the lookout for a tinted spf and picked this up as I love the first one 💁🏻‍♀️ I’d say the tint is a true light/medium neutral and oxidizes to a bit darker shade as it dries down. It matches my skintone quite well, looks sort of like a subtle fake tan if anything. True tint, not a lot of coverage. Layers well when reapplied without looking patchy. 👌🏼 Nice base for make up too. Would definitely repurchase!

👉🏼 Swedish ACO jumped on the wagon and dropped its own affordable fluid sunscreen. Very elegant formula and finish! Love everything about it except that it leaves a slight white cast despite 100% chemical filters 😬 But it gives a perfect base for makeup so I’m not too bothered. Beyond that I’m super impressed with the texture and finish! 10/10! Will perhaps repurchase for winter as it’s one of few fluid spf’s with hydrating properties. 👌🏼

✨ End of year musings ✨ First of all, thanks ✨ End of year musings ✨

First of all, thanks to everyone who’s not my mom or an old acquaintance from my past lol for sticking around yet another slow content year❣️No hard feelings if you do an yearly clean up and I don’t make the cut for next year though 😅

As much as I would like to come back and deliver informative content like everyone else… I’ve had to accept that I shine brighter in other settings. IG may be a wonderful medium for others but for me it’s been nothing than hitting my head against the wall and complaining why my head hurts. 🤕 And since consciously taking a backseat in 2020, I’ve proven myself that I don’t suck as much as I had myself believe. In my case, if life throws you lemons don’t try to make lemonade, ask why and from where they’re being thrown. 😅 

✨2021 BEST… ✨

TV-show… White Lotus and Ted Lasso
- The fact that I just started binging Ted Lasso two days ago and it’s quickly become the best thing I’ve watched says a lot! 😂

Investment… @melissawoodhealth app
- Without a doubt❣️Stopped going to the gym, lifting and doing regular HIIT workouts, swapped it for walks and bite sized pilates. Finally lost the weight I gained and feeling comfortable in my skin. 🧘🏻‍♀️

Achievement… Luxury bargains and facing fears
- Price is relative, patience is gold, and facing fears makes you more bold. 😏

Life lesson… “You are not who you think you are”
- As we get older we often start identifying ourselves with certain behavior, smarts, and likes. We tell ourselves lies of who we are and what we’re capable of. Usually influenced by others around us, past beliefs and societal opinions. Lies limiting our truest potential and deepest desires. By ridding myself of old limiting beliefs I’ve surprised and even shocked myself with how multi-talented and diverse my identity can be. 💫 

On that note, I’ll end by wishing you all a happy new year! Hope you’ll tag along for the next ✨♥️
Don’t you just love it when an expensive product Don’t you just love it when an expensive product doesn’t work for you? Or maybe you hate it as it was a waste of money 😅😝

It’s really worth repeating that a higher price tag doesn’t always = amazing results. What I’ve learned is that there are many different factors at play when it comes to pricing. Some brands want to offer new and exclusive formulations with studies behind them. Which isn’t cheap. Others are just starting off small batch, wanting to make it full time. And some just want the rich as their target consumer (looking at you Dr Sturm 🧐). And that’s all fine. 💁🏻‍♀️

I forgot the point I wanted to make. 😅 

But if you’re interested in hearing my thoughts on some expensive Allies of Skin-products, hop on over to my blog! ☺️ (Link in bio) 

Hint: The most expensive product was my least favorite. 👀

✨🌸 CUSTOM HAIR CARE 🌸✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I've been using @functionofbeauty since February when I got them for my birthday. This is a brand I've been eyeing since they launched. 😍 The idea of customized hair care appealed to me as I always felt I had to let go of certain aspects. If I want volume, I can't have moisture, and if I wanted curl action, I will not get volume, etc. With customized hair care, I can make a formula that checks all my boxes... Well, so I thought. 😅
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I've realized that there are a few issues surrounding customed stuff... 🙄 In the case of FoB, the customer is responsible to know their hair and what it needs. However, I would say, that the majority of us don't have a clue! 🙈 Like, in my case, I chose goals after my wants, not necessarily what my hair needs. 😶 You would think those two go hand in hand, but they don't!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
While it didn't end up in disaster, my expectations weren't met. But I can't blame the product or the brand, because I chose the formula. 🤷🏻‍♀️ This brings me to my next issue...
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are literally more than ten thousand combinations to try. Which is one too many if the first concoction doesn't work for you. I mean, I'd rather try out a different line, than try to puzzle the right pieces together. 🙇🏻‍♀️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are other brands, like @prose (only US atm), where the customization is more like a consultation. So rather than you picking what you think would work, you do a quiz answering stuff about your hair and health. What's also interesting is that they take into account your environment and its humidity level. Which I think is genius! Nevertheless, even that won't totally guarantee the formula will work for you. 💁🏻‍♀️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
While I can only speak for _this particular formula_ and how it worked with _my hair_, if you are interested to read my experience hop on over to my blog! 👉🏼 link in bio.

Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask Review

Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask Review

Bubble trouble all the way from South Korea! When Cassie at CloudyApples showed us a demo of the Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask mask I literally fell off on the floor laughing my ass off, and I still do re-watching the whole bit! Who can ever forget such a face? Because she did that so well, I’ll just forward you guys to the video and spare myself that entertaining embarrassment ;)


Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask Review

Instead, I’ll try to look serious and fashionable in this carbonated mask… Did I succeed? Or is it just impossible to not look funny with this on? I never thought I’d find an all natural Asian product. No offense to the leading countries in skincare, but you seem more science-y filled with parabens than stuff you could actually name or eat. After getting the details that it is all natural, pretty cheap and that you get free shipping, there was nothing stopping me to order this mask!


Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask Review

Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask

★★★★★

COST: $9.56
SKIN TYPE: All Skin Types, Including Sensitive

Well, you know how much I love me some clay masks, but the number one problem with them is that they tend to dry too quickly to even effect the skin with their good minerals and nutrients! One way is to apply a damp towel over your face, but if you’re like me who likes to multi-task while wearing a mask, this isn’t an option. That’s where the carbonated feature comes in: it keeps the clay moist during the whole waiting.

After a good laugh, and the very persuasive free shipping, it was on its way to me.

The mask starts to bubble quite quickly, so it’s a race against the clock to apply this one over the face.

What it is & What it does

Basically, it’s a simple clay mask only it’s spiced with carbon that makes the mask bubble and expand – this gives your skin a gentle exfoliation and a funny look (say hi to your fat self!). Containing charcoal powder it’s detoxing, penetrating the pores and draws out dirt. It supposed to cleanse, refine and tighten the pores, and even be good for oily skin types helping control excess sebum. And not to mention, it contains just only natural stuff!

Packaging

It comes with a tight seal and a spoon to whisk up the product. I’d say that the tight seal is necessary but you’ll need the help of a knife every time you want to open the product, unless you’ve got nails of steel you probably won’t have any problems. The spoon gives you the right amount of product to cover your whole face, including your neck. Seriously, don’t go overboard with this mask, a tiny bit is just enough!

And why this is even called “Milky Piggy” and has a cute little piggy on their packaging when the product does not contain either milk or piggy parts is a mystery of its own… What I do know is that they claim to not do animal testing, but whether they sell this product in China I’m unsure.



Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask Review

2 in 1 Product

After your five minutes are up (I usually take ten) it’s time to stop looking so jolly. When coming in contact with water, this mask starts to foam like an average foaming cleanser. It can bubble a bit too much to the point big bubbles form around your nostrils and you can’t breathe… Therefore I highly recommend scrubbing it off with a sponge, to keep the breathing pathways open! So no one has to die during such a silly thing.

So in many ways, this mask does act as a cleanser and a mask (and a killer) in the same product!

Because of the foaming, your face may and may not feel squeaky clean afterwards depending on your skin type. Cassie does mislead you a bit with her healthy glow, as it will come after you’ve put on your moisturizer. Duhh. I also can’t comment on the effect it has on pore size, ’cause I don’t have large pores, but I’ve noticed black heads more prominent and easy to remove.

Warnings

The mask can be messy when it has expanded enough, making foam dust fly away from your face when coming in contact with light wind. And not to mention, can cause sore face muscles from laughing at yourself. Usually these two problems are connected.

Verdict

The Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask has become my absolute favorite of the bunch! It gets your blood flowing to your face with all the laughs you’ll be having, which you will be having every single time, especially the time you accidentally managed to take too much! Don’t know about you, but I believe laughs makes you younger, not older.
But what I do like the most about it is its feature to keep the clay moist, letting it has its effect on the skin, instead of drying and just sitting there, which was the the thing that attracted me the most. Also, the prize is totally affordable for being an all natural, high tech and fun product, with awesome ingredient! Will definitely repurchase.

INGREDIENTS: Green Tea Extract, Aloe Vera Leaf Extract, Matcha Powder, Charcoal Powder, Pomegranate Extract, Fermented Soy Extract, Alantoin, Peony Root Extract, Oregano Leaf Extract, White Willow Peel Extract, Portulaca Extract, Cinnamon Extract.

      November 11, 2015 at 2:57 pm

      Neither did I! :D But I think she mentioned it being natural, which made me look it up and I couldn’t find anything bad at all!
      It’s a really fun product either way :)

      It’s no miracle mask, but it’s got calming and oil absorbing ingredients, so it definitely can work ? xx

3 dl (120g) grated zucchini or carrot
Some butter and grated coconut or rice flour to grease the pan. 

✨ Glaze:
1 dl powdered sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice

🌸 How to:
Set the oven at 175°C/~350°F

1. Whip the sugar and aqua faba to a foam. 
2. Mix rice flour, corn starch, husk, vanilla, baking powder and poppy seeds in another bowl. 
3. Pour the dry ingredients into the sugar whip together with melted butter, lemon peel and juice, and mix to a batter. 
- If you choose to make it with carrots, add 2 tbsp of oil into the mixture for a less dry cake. If you go with zucchini you don’t really have to unless you like a juicy cake. 
4. Pour the grated zucchini (do NOT squeeze it dry) or carrot into the mixture and mix well. 
5. Butter up a pan with coconut flakes or rice flour and then pour the batter into the pan. 
6. Put in the middle of the oven for about 30-40 min. Check with a testing stick if the batter is dry. 
7. Let cool down before taking the cake out of the pan. 
8. Mix ingredients for the glaze and top it off with some lemon peel sprinkles. 🌼
