NOTD: grey green dotticure

Image
On Beauty by Miss L today: Simple grey green dotticure that is simple enough for even beginners. For this manicure I used Maybelline Colorama nail polish #181 ( swatches here ) which is greenish-yellowish nail polish and dark grey China Glaze Concrete Catwalk ( swatches here ). Täna blogis: lihtne hall ja rohelisega täpiline küünemaaling, mida teha on lihtne ja seda ka algajatel. Seekord kasutasin Maybelline Colorama rohekas-kollast lakki #181 ning tumehalli China Glaze´i lakki Concrete Catwalk. I started my manicure with OPI Nail Envy. Next I added two coats of Maybelline Colorama nail polish #181 and let it try. After that I used my bigger dotting tool and added bigger dark grey dots on my nails. I let them dry a bit and then using a smaller dotting tool and #181 I added small green dots inside the big ones. I let the dots try about five minutes and then I finished my manicure with Essie Good To Go quick drying top coat. Alustasin enda maniküüri kihi OPI Nail Envy aluslakiga. E...

Swindon 10K

Image
As I promised yesterday, here is a bit longer post about Swindon 10K race that I attended on Sunday. I wasn´t sure if I´m going ot the race til the last moment, because I hadn´t gone jogging for three weeks due being under the weather (and I have been very lazy when it comes to jogging anyway lately :P ) and when I was feeling better than I worked out on my cross trainer hired from Hire Fitness, but working out on a cross trainer isn´t exactly the same as running outside. But since I had already paid for the race then not showing up, would have been kind of like a giving up. So even though I was still coughing a bit I decided to bite the bullet and attend the race. The weather was foggy and soggy and not very warm (read: typical British weather) and I would have liked to just stay in bed and sleep instead of going outside. The race itself was ok. For the first two miles my cough was causing me some problems and so the first 5km lap was kind of difficult for me. The second lap was eas...

Does Mane n Tail Herbal Gro do wonders to your hair?

Image
*Affiliate links I guess many of you have heard or read about Mane n Tail Herbal Gro products which are promised to nourish and strengthen hair. Many people say that thanks to these products their hair is now longer and thicker then ever before and that those products are just AMAZING. After all those promises and reviews I just had to give them a try, because I would love to have long and thick hair :D So in September I order Mane n Tail Herbal Gro shampoo and conditioner from iHerb . Paljud teist on kindlasti kuulnud Mane n Tail Herbal Gro toodetest, mis peaksid lubaduste kohaselt juukseid toitma ja tugevdama. Palju ütlevad, et tänu neile toodetele on nende juuksed nüüd paksud ja kasvavad kiiremini ning, et need tooted on fantastilised. Selliste lubaduste ja kommentaaride peale ma lihsalt pidin ka ise need tooted ära proovima, sest loomulikult sooviks ma pikki ja pakse juukseid :D Ja nii ma siis Mane n Tail Herbal Gro   šampooni ja palsami endale septembris iHerb´st tellisin. ...

OOTD: Black, White & Daniel Wellington

Image
Lately I have been wearing a lot black & white combos and the outfit I show you today is no exception - it is black and white again, but with a little touch of color thanks to beautiful Daniel Wellington watch. Viimasel ajal olen ma kuidagi eriti palju musta & valget kandma hakanud ja ega outfit, mida teile täna näitan samuti selles suhtes erine - see must ja valge, koos väikese värvi laiguga, milleks on kena Daniel Wellington´i kell.  What I´m wearing white lace top from Vero Moda black blazer from Zara black patent pumps Marks & Spencer necklace Vaiva watch Daniel Wellington Classic Southampton Lady Daniel Wellington Classic Southampton Lady watch has classic, stylish and clean look without extra bling. I chose this watch in Rose Gold, but it is also available in Silver. What I LOVE about this watch is how quiet it is. In the past I have owned watches that you can hear ticking, but not this one. It has very good size (36mm) and it is re...

NOTD: dark red nails & studs

Image
I hope you all had great weekend! Mine was pretty ok. On Saturday I received some packages which I´ll be showing you in next two weeks and I also purchased some new hair care products from Boots. Yesterday I attended Swindon 10K race which went pretty ok considering the fact that I have been under the weather for like last three weeks. I´ll make bit  longer post about this race tomorrow ;) Anyway today I´m showing you my weekend manicure. This time I decided to do dark red nails and add some nail art studs. Loodetavasti oli teil kõigil tore nädalavahetus! Minu nädalavahetus oli üsna ok :) Laupäeval saabusid mõned pakid, mille sisu teile järgmise paari nädala jooksul ka näitan ning lisaks käisin Boots´s enda juuksehooldustoodete varusid suurendamas. Eile osalesin üle pika pika aja jooksuvõistlusel. Swindon 10K oli minu jaoks esimene jooksuvõistlus siin UK´s ja ma loodan, et see ei jää viimaseks :) Jooksuga võib üldjoontes rahule jääda, sest viimased kolm nädalat olen külmetusega võide...

Those who have read Beauty by Miss L for longer time have probably noticed that on Sunday´s I post Sample Sunday posts and so today is no exception. My today´s post is about Agave Healing Oil Treatment which sample I received in my September Birchbox. [caption id="attachment_6616" align="aligncenter" width="650"] Purchased by me; Affiliate links[/caption] This oil is promised to restore and rejuvenate unmanageable and frizzy hair thanks to the hydrating and color-restoring sugars of the agave plant.

It doesn´t contain parabens, sulfates or phthalates. For using  warm a dime-sized dab of oil between your palms and distribute it throughout dab hair ...

Travel in Style with Gloria`s Pill Case

Image
Some of us take supplements every day, others have to take their tablets daily, but when we are travelling, carrying around large tablet jars or containers can be kind of a headache. So there is much more convenient solution for taking your pills with you when you´re on the go - Gloria`s Pill Case These pill cases come in many different styles for women, men and kids and from faux leather to different fabrics. I actually had quite a hard time choosing the perfect pill case for me, because there was so many pretty ones. I finally decided to go with this Sequin Tiger Silver one. This pill case with measurements of 9.5cm x 2.5cm, won´t take a lot of room in your handbag or suitcase.  Inside the case is pill organizer which has 7 labeled compartments. I like that the plastic pill box is secured to the case with velcro and so you can remove or replace the pill organizer if necessary. This will be especially handy if you are going on a trip longer than 7 days ;) because you can take ...
