Dying my hair blonde at home

As most of you probably know and have noticed, I have gone from brown to blonde. I mentioned

that my hair is still a bit yellow, so I bought a hair dye yesterday!

I took some time to decide the shade but I went for lightest nautral blonde of L'oréal

excellence creme.

It is a bit hard to show you before and after pics because in most of the pics my hair looked really

light already. It looks completely different depending on the light. Nevertheless, it was still brassy 

and I wanted it to look more natural. So, here is the result (which I like!) :

Notice my snapped hair.. My hair is quite damaged due to all straightening and

dying when I was in high school. I don't straighten my hair anymore and now I am also done with dying

probably, so it is time to take care of it.

The color seems more even now and less yellow. Below I have a pic taken in a yellow light

but the angle is different in the pics so it is a bit hard to compare. My hair does seem different

at any rate.

Makeup of the day 23/11

Good morning! Some makeup pictures again after a long time! 

I haven't been wearing makeup for three days (that is long for me, at least) and I was so excited to

do my makeup this morning :D 

Here are the products used:

(If you want to know some product specially, just ask!)

I decided to go with a subtle purple eye makeup with brown and nude lips. It looks quite natural

but the purple adds something to the look!

Today I am gonna study again and go to the mall later with my parents.. I don't think I will get

anything but a hair dye if I find a nice one. My hair is still a bit yellow but I don't know which

color I should get.. I don't want platinum blond but a bit of a beige shade. I am afraid that my hair

will turn even more yellow with beige.. hmm, hard choices :D

Lazy weekend

Good evening! I don't actually know what I want to write on this post but I just had a few pics

that I thought I could share with you. So, this is just a random post without a subject, haha.

I've had a relaxing Saturday, kind of. I've been studying quite a lot but I've also

played a cool game on my laptop. I sometimes love weekends when I am just home and do my

own thing.

Coffee and croissant <3

It was snowing a lot yesterday and the snow will probably stay on the ground for a few days..

I don't really like snow and cold but I am always so happy when I can walk on snow with my UGGs

for the first time :D

Some snacks for Saturday night.. not actually sure what this contains since my mom bought it
(actually for herself but then she just gave it to me?)

Also, I am so excited about going to the Netherlands! It is just 26 days away (that is less than

4 weeks!!)

About the game that I've been playing, Ted recommended it to me and I think it looks sooo beautiful,

It is called BioShock Infinite. I don't think many of you are interested in games, at least, not any

of my friends are, but I thought I could share a few pictures of it with you too. You can still find

pictures nice even if you don't like gaming :)

I just love how this looks.. Some of the scenes are so beautiful!

Kind of  a messy post but oh well! I just wanted to share a few pics =3
I hope you all have a nice weekend!

OPI Sheer tints - pt. 2

Good Friday evening! I have "enjoyed" this day home, writing an essay and studying psychology.

I have my new phone in use now so I've also been playing around with it a lot :) The photos on this

post are actually taken on my new phone and I think I will use it a lot for my blog since I hate to carry

my camera around. I couldn't really take pictures with my old phone for some months because 

it wasn't working properly :< But here I am with a new phone!

Anyways, let's continue to the real topic of the post: nails, yaaay! I wrote OPI Sheer tints part 1

a month ago or so and thought that it could be a good time to give you another example of these polishes.

I wanted something wintery since it is snowing outside and here is what I came up to!

So, I still have UV gel on my nails (and I have finally become better at making them!) and

I added OPI Top coat on it to protect it. After that I added one coat of OPI Alpine Snow.

I used two shades of OPI Sheer tints: blue and purple.

I must say that this isn't my most successful gradient ever and that's also why I have some

criticism for these polishes.

First of all, I don't know if it is about the size of these bottles (don't know why it would be), or if

I am just bad or if these polishes just are like that, but I don't think they spread out even. I think you

can also see it on my nails. The nail polish becomes quite thick when you have dipped your brush

there a few times. It might be the texture of this polish.

This is where I started creating the gradient. I added purple 2/3 of my nail and it didn't look good

I still added it to 1/3 of my nail and I was hoping that I can somehow fix this mess xD they don't

look good at all here! I got an idea, though. I added one more blue layer on my whole nail to even

it out and I think it did wonders!

See? Not as bad anymore. I had hope that my diamond top coat will make it all good..

And it did! I think that the gradient looks quite good there: never forget the top coat! As I mentioned,

I wanted wintery nails and I thought this was perfect for it since I didn't want to do anything

complicated. This polish is a diamond top coat of Lumene and its shade is 45 Diamond in the snow

So, in the end everything turned out well and I don't think I will get bored of these before next weekend!

(I have stopped ripping off my nail polish after I added UV gel and I have worn the same nail

polish for one week now, maybe 3-4 times. I am quite proud of myself! :D)
