Hi! Today is May 31st and #1800minutechallenge is ending. It has been an amazing challenge and huge motivation for me. Even though, yes, I have had my lazy days (and weeks), then I think I did pretty good. The goal was to work out during these 2 months at least 1800 minutes and I actually worked out total of 3575 minutes. Wow! Hei! Täna on 31.mai ning #1800minutechallenge väljakutse on lõppemas. See on olnud suurepärane väljakutse ja motivatsiooniallikas, et ennast veidigi rohkem liigutada ja trenni teha. Kuigi jah, tunnistan, et mul oli päevi (ja vahepeal lausa nädalaid) kui väga ikka  ei viitsinud küll midagi teha, siis ma arvan, et võin siiski lõpptulemusega rahule jääda kuna selle 2 kuu jooksul tegin trenni kokku 3575 minutit! :)     Those who wonder what this mini circuit is mentioned in my chart then look ↓ Need kes mõistatavad, mis asi see mini circuit mu tabelis on, siis vaadake ↓ From tomorrow, June 1st I will be starting two challenges. One of them is 30 Day ABS ...

Hi! Time for this weeks smoky eye friday look! This time I decided to create wearable smoky eyes with Urban Decay Naked 2 palette . I have created similar looks before using this same UD palette and also my other neutral palettes, but since I just love love love this color combo then from time  to time you´ll be seeing these   Hei! Aeg selle nädalaseks suitsusilmareede postituseks. Seekord tegin pruunides toonides silmameigi kasutades selleks Urban Decay Naked 2 paletti . Olen sarnaseid looke ka varem teinud (ja teen ka tulevikus) nii selle sama UD palettiga kui ka enda teiste nn neutraalide palettidega, kuna selline pruunides toonides look on üks minu lemmikuid.  What I used Avon Eyeshadow Primer Urban Decay Naked 2 palette: shades Bootycall, Half Baked, Tease and Blackout Vivo Cosmetics Liquid Eye Liner in Carbon Black e.l.f. Shimmer Eyeliner Pencil in Black Bandit e.l.f.Dramatic Lash Kit Avon Super Full mascara in Black e.l.f. Under Eye Concealer & Hig...

Hi! Today I have bit different (but still beauty related ;) ) review for you. My today´s post is about RazWar El Fidel Neo razor starter kit & Shave Balm which were sent for the review from raz-war.ee. This review actually contains 2 opinions - my own and also mr.R´s, who has been using this razor and the After Shave Balm daily for almost a month now. Hei! Täna mul teile veidi teistsugune (ent siiski iluga seonduv) arvustus. Kaks kuud tagasi saatis  raz-war.ee  mulle arvustamiseks kinkekomplekti, kus sees RazWar El Fidel Neo raseerija stardikomplekt ja raseerimisjärgne palsam. Seekordne arvustus on teistest erinev selletõttu, et saate lugeda tegelikult kahte arvamust: nii minu kui ka mr.R´ oma, kes on neid tooteid nüüd kuu aega testinud. The red box contained RazWar El Fidel Neo Starter Kit handle, one refill of four blades and a travel bag. Punases karbis, mida nägite eelmisel fotol olid järgmised asjad: RazWar El Fidel Neo käepide, neli vahetusera ja reisikott. RazWar El F...

Hi! I haven´t done any #Hepicksmypolish manicure for a while now and so today I have one of those manicures for you. This time the nail polishes were chosen by mr.R. Since he was in a hurry then he just randomly grabbed 3 polishes. I actually think that he made great picks, even though at first I just couldn´t figure out what to create. Hei! Ma ei ole tükk aega teinud ühtegi #Hepicksmypolish küünemaalingut (ehk siis küünemaalingu nö väljakutse, kus kasutatakse kolme lakki, mis on valitud meessoost isiku poolt (olgu see siis mees, vend, poeg, isa, sõber .... ) nende enda maitse järgi). Minu lakid valis seekord mr.R ja kuna tal oli kiire, siis ta enamvähem kinnisilmi haaras esimesed 3 ettejuhtunud lakki. Olen tegelikult mr.R´i valikuga rahul, ent alguses olin siiski ideedepuuduses, mida küll teha võiks. So this time mr.R picked Maybelline mini Colorama nail polish in 19 Marshmallow, W.I.C by Herome Cabana Beach and Maybelline Colorama #50 . I started my manicure with a coat of Maybel...

Hi! Today I want to show you a gorgeous yellow nail polish from Avon. Avon Gel Finish nail polish in Limoncello was the first Avon nail polish that caught my attention because it just looked so pretty in the catalogue and since lately I have been loving yellow nail polishes then I just had to have it. Hei! Täna tahan teile näidata ilusat kollast Avoni küünelakki. Avon Gel Finish lakk toonis Limoncello oli esimene Avon´i lakk, mis köitis minu tähelepanu, kui kataloogi sirvisin ning kuna viimasel ajal on mulle kollased lakid meeldima hakanud, siis pidin selle endale saama. This is pretty yellow nail polish and I like that it contains tiny little shimmering particles which just make this nail polish look stunning in direct sunlight (unfortunately I don´t have any photos taken in sunlight right now :( ) The formula of Avon Gel Finish nail polish in Limoncello ain´t that great. On my nails you can see three (3) coats of Limoncello + Essie Good To Go top coat. Why? Because this formula su...

Summer is almost here and I am still missing some gorgeous maxi dresses from my wardrobe. I did some window shopping today on one of my favorite online store - asos.com and so here are the maxi dresses that ended up in my Summer Wishlist. Suvi on varsti käes (või ma vähemalt loodan, et ikka on :D) ja mul on ikka kapist puudu mõned täiuslikud maxi kleidid. Surfasin täna veidi asos.com lehel ning leidsin sealt mõned kleidid, mida lihtsalt pidin teiega jagama :) [caption id="attachment_2640" align="aligncenter" width="640"] 1-LINK / 2-LINK / 3-LINK / 4-LINK [/caption]  Do you like maxi dresses? Which one do you like? Kas sulle meeldivad maxi kleidid? Millised on sinu lemmikud?

 I ordered Abra Therapeutics cleanser about a month ago from iHerb. I wanted to try something new and so since I had never even heard about this company before then I just decided to give it a try. And today it is time for my Abra Therapeutics Hydrating Cleanser review. Cruelty free Abra Therapeutics Hydrating Cleanser is described as a soap-free nutrient-rich emollient cleansing milk, which removes environmental impurities and restores moisture of dry or mature skin. B lend of Orange Blossom, Rose Bud, Bulgarian Chamomile, Comfrey and Antioxidant Vitamins A, C, E and Essential Oils of Ylang Ylang and Geranium help restore moisture and protect your complexion. Your skin will feel soft, moist and renewed. Using:  Rinse face with warm water. Apply small amount and massage gently over skin with outward circular motion. Rinse thoroughly and moisturize. Minu tänane arvustus on Abra Therapeutics niisutavast näopuhastuspiimast. Tellisin selle endale umbes kuu aega tagasi iHerb.com´st. Vara...

It´s Monday! And May is almost over :D Most of my readers probably know that on Mondays I usually do nail art for short nails posts. And today is no exception. My todays Pink and dots manicure is very very easy and I think it looks great both on short and long nails. For my manicure I used two Avon Gel Finish nail polishes: pale light pink named Sheer Love and bit darker bright  pink named Parfait Pink. Esmaspäev! Ja maikuu on peaaegu läbi! Enamik minu blogi Beauty by Miss L lugejatest tõenäoliselt on kursis sellega, et esmaspäeviti näitan ma tavaliselt küünemaalinguid lühikestele küüntele. Ja ega tänane päevgi erand ole. Seekord on mul teile hästi lihtne roosa & täppidega disain, mille tegemisel kasutasin kahte Avon Gel Finish lakki, mida olete mu blogis juba varem näinud ;) I started my manicure with two coats of Avon Gel Finish nail polish in Sheer Love and then I added dots using double-sided dotting tool from Born Pretty Store and Avon Gel Finish nail polish in Parfait Pi...

Hi! This weekend I visited beautiful place in Southern Estonia - Vidrike. The weather was fantastic  ~29C and the sun was shining. I wish we had more warm and sunny days like this :) Hei! Sel nädalavahetusel külastasime jälle Lõuna-Eestit. Seekord viibisime Vidrikesel. Ilm oli super: ~29 sooja ja päikesepaiste. Super! Soovin, et meil oleks rohkem selliseid suurepäraseid suveilmu.  and my this weekend´s outfit. My outfit was very very simple and perfect for this warm weather. ja minu selle nädalavahetuse riietus: hästi lihtne ja väga sobiv selle nädalavahetuse sooja ilmaga. My sunny weekend outfit shirt - H&M shorts - Esprit flip-flops - Tamaris watch -Aliexpress sunglasses - Polaroid

Hi! Time for the last Celebrate the Occasion nail art challenge post. Today´s theme is Freestyle/Recreate and so I decided to do a manicure inspired of Estonian flag. I usually do these blue-black-white manicures  for Estonian Independence Day (February 24th) or for the Day of Restoration of Independence (August 20th). For my blue-black-white interlock manicure I used Wild & Mild nail polish in Blue Nun , Aden Cosmetics black nail polish, China Glaze White on White and a dotting tool. Hei! Aeg viimaseks Celebrate the Occasion nail art challenge väljakutse maniküüriks. Seekord on siis nö vaba teema ja enda vabateema küünemaalinguks valisin seekord Eesti lipuvärvid: sinise, musta ja valge. Tavaliselt teen sinimustvalgeid küüsi kas Eesti Vabariigi aastapäevaks (24.veebruar) või taasiseseisvumispäevaks (20.august). Seekord kasutasin küünemaalingu tegemiseks Wild&Mild lakki Blue Nun, Aden Cosmetics musta lakki, China Glaze lakki White on White ja täpitajat. An InLinkz Link-u...

Hi! Time for today´s Celebrate the Occasion nail art challenge post. The theme for today was Circus Day. Circus Day is something that I really don´t know much about and so I did some googling before I started creating my manicure. What I found out that Circus Day is celebrated on the third Saturday each April and it is a special day to celebrate Circus Arts and Culture.  When I think about circus then the first things that come into my mind are of course clowns & balloons & and all those circus artists with their eye-catching costumes. And my manicure was inspired of all those three things I mentioned. Hei! Aeg eelviimaseks Celebrate the Occasion nail art challenge väljakutse postituseks. Tänaseks teemaks oli Tsirkusepäev. Kuna sellest päevast ma eriti midagi ei teadnud seni, siis guugeldasin veidi ja sain targemaks, et Tsirkusepäeva tähistatakse aprilli kolmandal laupäeval ning see päev on, siis pühendatud tsirkuse kunstidele ja kultuurile. Kui ma mõtlen tsirkuse peale, siis...

Hi! It is Friday! Yay! And so it is time for this week´s Smoky Eye Friday look! This week I did classic black grey smoky eye makeup look using Avon Metallics 8-in-1 Eye palette and white loose mineral eye shadow. Hei! Käes on reede! Ja seega on aeg sellenädalaseks suitsusilma reede meigiks. Sel korral tegin klassikalisema halli ja mustaga silmameigi. Meigi tegemiseks kasutasin Avon Metallics 8-in-1 lauvärvi paletti ja valget mineraalset lauvärvi Candy Minerals e-poest. What I used for my Black grey smoky eye Avon Eyeshadow Primer Avon Metallics 8-in-1 Eye Palette (grey and black shades) Mineral eye shadow in Diamond Dust from Candy Minerals Cailyn Linefix Gel Eyeliner in Charcoal e.l.f Mineral Eye Liner in Black Avon Super Full Mascara e.l.f. Eyebrow Kit in Light e.l.f. Under Eye Concealer & Highlighter An InLinkz Link-up

Hi! Lets continue with the Celebrate the Occasion nail art challenge. Today´s theme is Peace Day. I was thinking about doing maybe some hippie flowers or doves (but I can´t really draw them, so no doves :P), but yesterday I recieved some nail art goodies from Born Pretty Store and so I decided to take the easy way out and to do something inspired from the peace signs. For my Peace Day nails I used Mavala 130 Aqua Blue nail polish and 1.5mm/2mm Punk Half Round Metal Ball Rhinestones Flatback Nail Art Decorations from Born Pretty Store . This little wheel contains about 360pc of nail golden and silver nail decorations in 1.5mm and 2.0mm. Using them is easy. I carefully placed them on my wet nail polish and let the nail polish dry. To make the decorations stay on your nail longer it is good to use clear nail polish or clear top coat, but make sure that the polish you are using won´t make these half beads´color bleed. For example I tried these with Essie Good To Go and I did notice so...

Time for another Avon product review. My today´s review is about Avon Naturals Moisturising Hair Treatment Mask with Avocado & Macadamia. I purchased it because I had good experience with Avon Advance Techniques 360 Nourishment Moroccan Argain Oil products and so since this hair mask was promised to contain macadamia and avocado then I just had to try it. Vahelduseks üks toote arvustus. Minu selle nädala esimene arvustus on Avon Naturals niisutavast juuksemaskist makadaamiapähkli ja avokaadoga. Ostsin (õigemini küll tellisin) selle endale kuna minu eelnev kogemus Avon Advance Techniques 360 niisutava Argaania õliga šampooni ja palsamiga oli positiivne ning seega otsustasin ära proovida ka selle juuksemaski. Avon Naturals Moisturising Hair Treatment Mask Avocado & Macadamia is, as you can guess, a moisturising hair mask, which is suitable for all hair types. Using it is easy. After shampooing massage a small amount  through damp hair and leave for 1-3 minutes. Then rinse tho...

Hi! Another nail art post for you today. Today´s theme for the Celebrate the Occasion nail art challenge was Armed Forces/Memorial Day. When I think of armed forces then the first thing that comes into my mind is camouflage print and so camouflage inspired nails it is. For my camouflage nails I used China Glaze nail polish Highlight of My Summer , Models Own Green Grass, WTF Wonderful Toes & Fingers C32 , Barry M nail paint in Mushroom , Aden Cosmetics black nail polish, dotting tool and Essie Good to Go top coat. Hei! Aeg järjekordseks küünemaalingu postituseks. Tänaseks Celebrate the Occasion nail art challenge väljakutse teemaks oli relvajõud/mälestamispäev (tähistatakse USA´s mai viimasel esmaspäeval). Kui ma mõtlen relvajõudude peale, siis esimene asi, mis mulle sellega seostub on laiguline kamuflaaž riie ja seega kamuflaažist inspireeritud sai seekord ka küünedisain. Kasutuses olid mul seekord pildil olevad lakid: China Glaze - Highlight of My Summer, Models Own - Green Gra...

Hi! Time for my #1800minutechallenge week 7 roundup. It was busy week, but I managed to work out every day, except Sunday. I mostly went jogging & walking to train for the Maijooks which I attended on Saturday. Maijooks is 7km race and I enjoyed it a lot. Last year I participated in Maijooks for the first time and finished with a time of 43:11. This year I managed to finish with a time of 35:26 :) As you can see from the chart below than I managed to work out last week total of 237 minutes. This is pretty average time. But I am very happy that during this #1800minutechallenge, which started on April 1st, I have worked out total of 3068 minutes :D Yay! Hei! Aeg #1800minutechallenge 7. nädala kokkuvõtte jaoks. Tegu oli minu jaoks kiire nädalaga, ent mingit trenni õnnestus mul siiski kuuel päeval seitsmest teha. Põhiliselt käisin jooksmas, et teha veel viimast trenni laupeval toimunud Maijooksu jaoks. Eelmisel aastal osalesin ma Maijooksul esimest korda ning lõpetasin ajaga 43:11 ja...

Hi! Time for next Celebrate the Occasion nail art challenge manicure. Today´s theme was Graduations. For my manicure I used Maybelline mini Colorama nail polish in 96 Party Blue, Aden Cosmetics black nail polish, dried flowers and a nail art brush. Hei! Aeg tänaseks Celebrate the Occasion nail art challenge väljakutse küünemaalinguks. Tänane teema oli koolilõpp. Minu jaoks seostuvad koolilõpuga lilled ja lõputunnistus, ent kuna lilledega maniküüri võib teha enamvähem vist igaks ürituseks, siis seekord lisasin enda disaini ka spetsiaalsed koolilõpumütsid, mis on levinud pigem mujal maailmas, ent mis sümboliseerivad kooli lõppu. Kasutasin seekord Maybelline mini Colorama lakki toonis 96 Party Blue, Aden Cosmetics musta lakki, kuivatatud lilli ja küünemaalingu pintslit. I first applied one thick coat of Maybelline mini Colorama nail polish in Party Blue on my nails and let it dry completely. Then I free-handed the mortar boards aka academic caps to my thumb and ring finger. To rest of...
