Dotted nails

Image
I haven´t done any nail art for... eemmm...about 10 years or so. I´ve been just too lazy. But before that it was usual that my nails were painted in all kinds of diferent patterns.  So today I had time and I decided to make dots on my nails. I got inspiration from here  and also from this blog.                                   This what came out: I used these products: From right - left: As base coat I used L´Oreal´s Resist & Shine nail strongerer, which I have used as base coat lately. Then two nail polishes from Carlo di Roma (I bought them about two years ago and I haven´t really used them) And finally Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat. Dots I made with toothpick. The problem with the polish on the right is that it looks in the bottle and on the picture white with slightly pinkish burnish. But when I painted my nails with it (3coats), it looked still pink :S

Weekend in pics...

Image
So I have been here and there this weekend. For me weekend usually starts on Friday.  So on Friday we went with "R" to his friend´s graduation ceremony from university which took place in Estonian National Opera, in Tallinn. I had never been there before and it was like WOW. It looked really great. I´m not big fan of opera, but i think it would be great to go see some plays there.  Sellel nädalavahetusel olin ma jälle siin ja seal. Reedel (minu jaoks algab nädalavahetus reedega) käisime me ühe R-i sõbra ülikooli lõpuaktusel, mis toimus Rahvusooper  Estonias. Ma ei ole seal kunagi varem käinud, aga see nägi super välja. Kuigi ma eriline ooperi austaja pole, siis ma arvan, et mõnda etendust võiks seal külastada küll - puhtalt selle teatri pärast. And on Saturday we visited Tartu. Tartu is one of my favourite town in Estonia. Riverside at night: I guess I haven´t walked there for quite long time, beacuse when walking to our hotel we discovered this. I don´t know the exact ...

Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat

Image
I have read so many great things about this Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat, so that when my Sally Hansen´s Insta-dri ran out I decided to try this one. I ordered mine from feelunique and I´ve used it for 3 weeks.  This top coat got Lookfantastic Hair & Beauty Award 2011 and it is loved by many women.  Information from feelunique about it: Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat is widely acknowledged as the world's finest top coat. Its patented formula penetrates through the nail lacquer to the base coat forming a single solid coating over the nail plate for a much more durable finish, guaranteed not to yellow and leaves nails silky, stronger and resistant to chipping and peeling. My opinion: I have mixed feelings about it. On the one hand I like that it dries my nails quickly, my nails get nice shine and nail polish stays up to 3-4 days instead of 1-2 ( I don´t know why, but the polish just don´t want to stay on longer (with or without base coat) :S). I have read from makeupalley.co...

e.l.f Mineral Booster

Image
So last thing to review is e.l.f Mineral Booster. I ordered mine in small sheer. Manufacturer says:  Achieve the ultimate, translucent "photo finishing touch" to your makeup. e.l.f Mineral Booster melts into your skin, infusing it with key vitamins A, B and E to promote healthier skin that’s noticeably silkier and smoother. Completely sheer and ideal for all skin tones, Mineral Booster gently absorbs oil and minimizes the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines and pores for a beautiful even finish. Wear alone or buff over our Mineral Concealer and Foundation to lend extra staying power and to achieve a professional and stunning porcelain matte look that will last all day. My opinion of e.l.f Mineral Booster I quite like this powder. It gives nice even and matte finish and minimizes the appearanze of fine lines. Also it is easy to use and blends in well. It is not translucent - it does have bit pinkish pigment in it. I have been using it so far just over primer or my daily...

e.l.f. Liquid Eyeliner

Image
Besides lip glosses and mascara , I also ordered e.l.f liquid eyeliner in black. Manufacturer says:  No more tugging or pulling on your eyelids with this easy glide liquid eyeliner. The smudge-proof liner is rich in color, creating a long lasting defined look. The fine tip brush creates easy and precise definition for natural or dramatic effects. Ingredients / Koostis : Aqua(Water), Cyclomethicone, PVP/VA Copolymer, Methylparaben Propylparaben, Fragrance(Aroma), Iron Oxides (CI 77491 , CI 77492 , CI 77499, Blue No.1 Lake (CI 42090) My opinion: This eyeliner is easy to apply, easy to remove, doesn´t smudge and it doesn´t irritate my eyes, but it aint the best eyeliner that i have used. I wouldn´t say that this eyeliner is rich in color. I mean yes it´s black, but if I used it without primer then it looked grayish instead of black. This liner has fine tip and so you can get thinner or thicker line just as you prefer. Also it really glides easily without pulling my eyelids. So t...

e.l.f. Super Glossy Lip Shine SPF15

Image

On the left Goddess, right Juiced Berry / Vasaksul toon Goddess ja paremal Juiced Berry Information from : This Super Glossy SPF 15 formula fights environmental damage while leaving your lips with a healthy glossy glow. The delicious flavor and sweet scent will leave you licking your lips in delight! The perfect on the go tube that is mess proof for anywhere and anytime!

My opinion: Both lipglosses smell very sweet (probably too sweet for some people), but they are tastless. They are really simple to use. I l...

e.l.f Lengthening & Volumizing Mascara

Image
Last week I received my package from e.l.f. And the first thing I´m going to review is e.l.f Lengthening & Volumizing Mascara. I have used it now about 1,5 week and so far it has been ok.  Eelmisel nädalal sain ma lõpuks kätte oma tellimuse e.l.f´st. Esimeseks asjaks, mille kohta arvamust avaldada valisin e.l.f´i pikendava ja tihendava ripsmetuši. Ma olen seda nüüdseks kasutanud 1,5 nädalat ja seni on ta täitsa ok olnud.     Information about this mascara from : Achieve thicker, fuller, and longer lashes that are beautiful and natural. The enlarged brush coats your lashes evenly for an enhanced appeal. The unique formula is clump free and quick drying so you can have color that stays on all day with no smudging and no flaking. Info selle ripsmeka kohta leheküljelt: : Saavuta tihedemad ja pikemad rispmed, mis näevad välja kaunid ja loomulikud. Suurendatud hari katab ripsmed ühtlaselt. Unikaalne koostis ei jää tükki, ripsmed kuivad kiirelt  ja värv püsib ripsmetel terve päe...

Vääna-Jõesuu ...

Image
Vääna-Jõesuu beach ... and beach again. So today was another sunny day and so I and my bf "R" went to Vääna-Jõesuu beach. It was quite beautiful and peaceful. Eventhough at times wind was quite strong and so there were kind of like tiny sandstorms and in the end sand was like everywhere. ... ja jälle rand. Täna oli järjekorde suurepärane rannailm ning seekord külastasime koos "R"ga Vääna-Jõesuu randa. Rand oli hästi kena ja üsna puhas (vetikaid oli mõnes kohas vees, aga ei midagi hullu). Mõnusat päevitamist segas ainult vahepeal kõvasti puhunud tuul, mis tekitas tillukesi liivatorme, nii et liiv oli lõpuks igalpool.                                                     My new white bandeau bikini from ASOS PS! No beach posts for at least 1,5 week :D PS! Rannapostitusi ei tule nüüd enam vähemalt 1,5 nädalat. :P

Kloogaranna beach

Image
Järjekordne rannajutt :P Täna tegelikult me rannas päevitamas ei käinud, aga korra käisime tutvumas Kloogaranna rannaga, mis asub Paldiskist ~9km kaugusel. Ütleme nii, et üsna trööstitu kant. Kunagi oma hiilgeaegadel on see rand ja sinna juurde kuuluv kindlasti ilus ja korras olnud, aga praegu oli vaatepilt suht kurb. Igatahes ei tekkinud küll erilist tahtmist minna sinna päikest võtma. Aga rohelust, mida nautida oli päris palju :P Another beach story :P Actually we didn´t go sunbathing today, but we went to check out another beach close to us (9 km from Paldiski). Kloogaranna is rather bleak place. I guess many years ago it was paradise for vacationers, but now the sight was quite sad. And so i´m not very impressed by the idea to go there to spend a day. Kunagine rannahoone, millest alles vaid varemed / This used to be a beach pavilion(?), but no it lays in ruins. Vähemalt on võimalik jäätist osta :D / at least you can buy some ice cream :D Veel lõhtud hooneid, kohe parkla...

Padise

Image
Jutt jäi enne pooleli SIIN . Niisiis ei viitsinud me grillima hakata ja otsustasime kuskil teel peatuse teha ja lõunat süüa. Tagasi teel märkasime tee ääres silti "Pae kauplus-kohvik" ja mõtlesime, et lähme vaatame, mis see endast siis kujutab. Kohale jõudes... hmm mingi kaader chillis kohviku ees ja ei tekitanud tahtmist küll uurima minna, mida head seal pakutakse. Seega otsustasime kindla peale välja minna ja Padise Mõisa Restorani külastada. My overview of today´s started HERE . So we decided not to grill and look for some cafe or restaurant to have lunch. First we saw sign that said that there was Pae Cafe nearby. But when we arrived there the place didn´t look very good and so we went to Padise Manor Restaurant.      Kuna ilm oli suurepärane otsustasime einestada terassil, kust avanes vaade Padise kloostrile. Õhkkond oli meeldiv ja lihtne. Kuulda oli linnulaulu ja kuldnokk toimetas seal samas lähedal murul oma toimetamisi. Teenindus oli sõbralik, kuigi võibolla veidi ...

Alliklepa rand / Alliklepa Beach

Image
Täna oli plaan jälle mõned tunnid rannas peesitada ja siis grillida. Ilm oli lausa fantastiline (ok mõnede meelest tõenäoliselt rõvedalt palav ja päikseline). Kuna plaan oli avastada mõnda uut randa, siis eile õhtuse internetis surfamise tulemusena osutus valituks Alliklepa rand. Alliklepa rand on rahulik ja vaikne rand, kus ei olnud eriti palju inimesi (tööpäev oli ka muidugi). Hästi mõnus oli päevitada, aga vesi oli prrrrrr KÜLM.... So today was another beautiful day and we decided to spend it on the beach sunbathing and grilling. We wanted to discover some new beach and so from internet I found Alliklepa beach. It was beautiful and peaceful and there wasn´t many people. The weather was just perfect for sunbathing, but water was still too cold. Teel sinna mõõdusime sellisest huvitavast hmm kompositsioonist. Polegi enam ammu ühtegi piimapukki teeääres näinud :D / on our way to Alliklepa we saw this interesting composition. Seente tegija on väga leidlik olnud / the maker of...
