Exam stress

Hello everyone,

(source)

 I know that a lot of you are having exams soon,including myself and I know that it can get extremely stressful,really quickly.But recently I decided to stop a little bit and take it easier.Parents usually always say that exams are the most important thing,when actually they are not !.I don't even understand how all these things that you've been learning for years,can determine the rest of your life.I am not saying that exams are not necessary at all, but I for sure know that they are not for everyone !. Of course if you are applying to the university, good marks are necessary to enter, but you have to understand that they are not the most important thing in life! Those results won't determine your happiness and everything...I know that most of the people work in completely different jobs than what they've been studying for in the university.And those who got the best marks, not necessarily have the best jobs.
What I am trying to say is that you should take exams easier and not stress yourself out as much.They will go by quickly,but stress can do a huge damage for your health without you even noticing it.Take some time for yourself each day and don't forget to enjoy life.Good luck everyone!.See you soon !!

My favorite smells | Perfume

Hello girls,

How are you doing?.I am waiting for spring and warm weather !!.I want to pull out my spring clothes,shoes and perfume.Today I want to show you my 5 favorite smells at the moment.
On more busy days,when I want the smell to last a bit longer and smell a bit stronger,I use perfume:
Hugo Boss Orange,Armani diamonds or Idole d'Armani.

• My absolute favorite is Idole d'Armani.The smell is spicy,but also fresh.When I spray it on ,I instantly feel strong,self confident and independent.Love it!
• Emporio Armani Diamonds is also a very delicious smell.The top notes are litchi,raspberry,woods and amber.
• Hugo Boss orange smell is really warm and cosy.The fresh notes are sweet apples,the chord of white and orange blossoms,vanilla and sandalwood and a basic touch of olive wood.Very sweet!

On the lazy days I mostly just use light fragrance mists.My favorite smells at the moment are from Victorias secret: Love spell and fresh sorbets.Both are lovely.

Let me know if you have some delicious perfume suggestions.See you very soon ღ.

Not supportive parents | Anxiety-depressive disorder

(source)

Hello everyone,today I want to talk about obstacles in life and when everything gets a bit too much.We are all people with emotions and of course everybody is in different situations.Because every person is unique we all handle everything differently.I am a sensitive person and I was quite an anxious kid too,so that haven’t helped growing up at all.To be honest,there were some days or even weeks,when I just got home and cried,just cried and then I got to wonder,if that's a normal thing or I just overreact .But I think that crying relieves some of the pain.The best thing you can do in tough situations is just talk to people,that are close to you,that you are 100% comfortable with,but not everybody have that people in their lives.I was one of those kids.The only person that I was comfortable with talking about my fears and problems was my sister,but she moved out of the house to a different country when I was a kid.My dad also works abroad since I was about 5,so there always was just me and my mom.Of course I talk with my sister when she comes home or on the phone,but that's not the same as in person and I am blessed to have her in my life,because I know that she understands me and always supports me.My dad and my mum,I will admit,they are not supportive parents.The only thing that can justify my dad is that he was never really with me as I said,but I also never saw his interest in me even from the phone calls.He sometimes asks me how am I,but when I try to explain how I feel,it looks like he just doesn't hear me.And my mother is just all about herself ,she never cared about how me or my sister feels.As we say,we are thankful basically just for the material support,but we never had psychological support from her.So my biggest issue growing up was not having supportive parents.And life was really hard for me because of that,especially when I was a kid,because I was too afraid to talk to my friends about my feelings,so I felt really alone in life.And I sometimes feel like that now too.It doesn’t matter how old we are,but we always need support or just normal communication with our family.But I know that this will never change.My parents were like that since my sister was a little girl and she always tried to talk to them,tried to change the way they think and then she gave up.I also tried to explain how I feel and tried to communicate ,but they just don’t understand the problem,it looks like they don't even listen,so now I gave up too and I feel sorry for the time I wasted trying to change people who don't even want to change and don’t understand how they are affecting their children lives.I was never heard by my parents and constantly felt that my feelings are detracted,so over time I just began to hide them.I think that that added to the fact that a few years ago I was diagnosed with anxiety-depressive disorder.It’s really hard for me to communicate with people in person,it’s scary and hard for me to express my opinion to others,because I am scared that people will laugh at me or they will not understand me.I always feel anxious and insecure around more people or in public in general.Even though I always try to look happy,sometimes inside I don't feel like that at all.

Now I am trying to be as happy as I can.I try to go out more and meet new people and I am trying to overcome my fears.I am giving all my time and effort now  to become financially independent from anyone and hope to be moving out in the very near future as I definitely need to get away and have a new,fresh start.We have this one life and we definitely need to make the most of it and we need get out of toxic relationships. I don’t know if I’ve managed to express my feelings and I know that this isn’t the worst thing and some people have much more serious problems.But I just wanted to write this post,because I know that some people don't have supportive parents too and I want to help some of you understand that you are not alone.Please write me an email if you have some questions or if you just want to tell me your story,I will be glad to hear it.Please remember that you are not alone.I feel for you.♥

The AMAZING Beauty blender

♡

Hello my lovely makeup lovers,how are you all doing? Sorry for not posting for a while,recently I was very busy and I don't want to rush my blog posts,I like to make them as good as I can.So today I am back with a review of the AMAZING,the INCREDIBLE,one and only the original Beauty blender! I think you can already tell how I feel about it,I love it !

When I first tried it I was astonished! I have never thought that a sponge like that can make such a huge difference in makeup application.Although it is a little bit pricey,it's definitely worth every penny.It lasts for a really long time if you take a good care of it.Now I found myself grabbing this sponge for everything: foundation,concealer,under eye brightener,contouring and highlighting products... 

The Beauty blender is also really easy to use.I just put it under running water and squeeze for a few times,then I put it in a paper towel and squeeze for a couple times to make sure that no water is coming out and the sponge is ready to create miracles !

I absolutely recommend everyone to try it! 

Let me know your thoughts on the Beauty blender and I will see you next time,goooooood byeeeee! ♡♡♡

Go AWAY spots!

Good hello guys,

How are you all doing? :). Today I decided to write about the best product that I have found yet to fight blemishes.Recently I've been breaking out quite a bit,because of the stress and everything thats going on in my life.There are a lot of reasons that cause breaking out,especially if you have oily skin,like stress,hormones,bad diet,lack of sleep,bad skincare and so on... It is really important to clean and exfoliate your skin,to get rid of all the bacteria,excess oils,extra makeup that is stuck in your pores throughout the day.Taking a good care of the skin is really important,but there are things going on in our bodies that cause blemishes,that we can't control.

So at the moment I see a pimple brewing,I take the Eve Lom dynaspot treatment to help me!.This treatment is my life saver !. It is creamy formula and you can also use it under or over makeup,because it's subtly tinted to suit all skin tones,which is perfect!.This emergency treatment is formulated with tea tree oil,salicylic acid,zinc oxide and camomile to help tackle spots as soon as they appear.Zinc oxide helps to control sebum production,camomile reduces redness and inflammation around the blemish,tea tree oil and salicylic acid also works as natural antiseptics.

This cream works really good for me,it diminishes blemishes without drying out the skin.I suggest you to try it. :) 

Love ♡.  

My trip to Norway

Hello sweethearts,

Today I want to tell you a little bit about my trip to Norway.A few weeks ago I went on a short holiday to Norway.I've never been there,so I was very excited!.I just can't believe what a beautiful country it is!.I would like to see it in the summer,but I bet in the winter it is way more magical.I don't even know how to describe the views I saw,it was like a winter wonderland from movies.It would be perfect if eyes could caption those landscapes,so I could show you.I tried to take as good photos as I could,but it's not even near reality....(I really need to buy a new camera...Any suggestions?).Every tree was frosted,everything was covered in snow,the mountains looked so amazing!.Unfortunately it was very cold,about -20 degrees celsius... a little bit too cold...
I visited a lot of small cities.Norway is a very interesting country,because all the smaller cities,besides Oslo,reminds me of villages,roads are surrounded by the fields.Basically there are a lot of nature!.
Norway is a perfect place to relax and run away from the city uproar.It is a really calm country,there isn't a lot of action happening or maybe it's just because I went there on holiday time.
I visited a few main museums and other beautiful places : Holmenkollen Ski Museum, Norwegian Folk Museum,Vikingskipshuset,The Royal Palace,Oslo Opera House and others.It was really interesting to learn a little bit more about the country and it's history.
Over all it was nice to visit this extraordinary country and relax a little bit.Highly suggest you to visit Norway in the winter!.
I've put up a few pictures for you,hope you enjoy!.❤

New year,new me!

Hello,

January - the perfect time to begin to do things,that we didn’t had enough time to do last year.We can remember our old set,but never achieved goals.Everything begins with our mind,more accurately-learning how to express our thoughts.When we can’t express our emotions or goals,this is where most of the problems come from.So why not to dedicate this month for cleaning up our head? It is naive to expect,that clearing our thoughts will be easy and pleasant,but it is necessary,if we want to have diversified life and live it to the fullest.Exactly the one,that we all think about every day.In January it is prohibited to think about how unhappy we are.In this month let’s try to analyze the causes and the consequences.

• Every evening,before going to sleep,remember a few things,that made you happy that day.Just a pleasant chat is enough.Our general sense of well-being consists from simple things.Every single pleasant adventure makes good emotions to remain with us longer.

• Every morning,when you wake up,think of three things,why you want to get out of the bed today.What are you excited for?.Maybe you bought a new makeup product,that you are desperate to try out doing your morning makeup?.

• Leave enough time for good night sleep,but make your day long and productive.It’s not a secret,that a person,that didn’t had enough sleep - is an angry person.But don’t let sleep take all your time.Try to wake up earlier than usual .Enjoy your free hour.Dedicate it to things,that you don’t usually have time for.Maybe read a good book,or listen to your favorite music.

Instead of complaining,remember,that only we create our life.Don’t let bad thoughts to ruin it.

Today I wanted to write a bit different blog post,hope you enjoyed!.

A quick little makeup haul | MAC,Smashbox

Good day everyone!,

Recently I picked up a few items from MAC and Smashbox,so I wanted to share my thoughts about them :).

• The first item is MAC Studio sculpt foundation.

I just can't believe I've never tried it before!.This thing beats even my all time favorite Nars sheer glow foundation.I don't have a bad thing to say about it.It most importantly doesn't look caky on the skin,doesn't make it oily or dry throughout the day,the creamy formula blends really nicely and doesn't leave strokes or anything.The shade matches my skin tone really well and the coverage is really nice just with one thin layer or you can built it up.This foundation is gel-based,so it leaves really nice satin finish.Moreover it doesn't really have smell and I love it!.Although I am still experimenting with it and different brushes,I think that this foundation will be my favorite for a long,looooooooong time!.

• The second item is MAC Prep+Prime highlighter in lightboost.

Again,magic in a pen!.It efficiently brightens and adds radiance to the under eye area.Also goes on really nice and smooth.I like to use it after I put on foundation and if I really want that lightboost,I add my Laura Mercier secret camouflage on top.

• The third product is MAC pigment in vanilla.

I swear if you don't have it,you have to get it!.I was always struggling to find the perfect white eyeshadow,that really makes a nice base for almost every look.Most white eyeshadows doesn't have the pigmentation and that is the most important thing.So I picked up this vanilla pigment and it literally solved all my problems and I will not even bother finding anything better than this,because I believe it's the best! :D.

• Last but not least Smashbox color correcting primer.

I was always using clear primers,but I decided to try the color correcting one and I can say that they are much better,because not only they create a perfect canvas for foundation,but also evens out the skin tone and defies dark spots.My skin sometimes look really dull,so I picked up an apricot-toned primer.There also was the green one,which reduces redness,but that green just scares me!.I just feel that it won't blend that well and I will be walking down the streets looking like Shrek! :D.

Please let me know if you tried any of these products and share you suggestions on what I should try next.Love you. ♡
