Why I Wear Jewelry & My Current Gold Necklaces wishlist

Image
*affiliate links/sponsored How I Started Wearing Jewelry? I started wearing jewelry around the of 12 or so. At first I wore cheap fashion jewelry. Since choker necklaces were really popular back then, then those were the ones I wore. Sometimes I combined those fashion necklaces with a silver necklace with a zodiac sign pendant. When I now think back to that time, then that probably wasn't the best combination, however, at the age of 12, it seemed like a great combo :D Soon I started wearing rings too. My very first ring was my grandmother's silver ring. The ring had a very simple design featuring the Estonian flag. Since I loved wearing rings then I soon bought some more silver rings. Although I wore quite a lot of silver jewelry then I have actually always liked gold, too. There was just a tiny problem with gold jewelry - back then it was just out of my budget. I started wearing gold jewelry around the age of 17 or so after I had my ears pierced. At first, I wore the stud...

How To Take Good Care of Thin Hair

Image
Thin, fine hair can be such a task, although it has its pros it also has its cons. On a scale, its cons far outweighs its pros. Thin hair has a naturally silky texture and has shorter drying times, but on the other hand, it also lacks volume and is quite a struggle to turn into curls. Fortunately, there are lots of ways to take care of thin and fine hair to give it more volume, length, texture, and appearance, from changes in your diet to hair care products and daily routine. Let's start first from your daily routine, as it is an important part of your life. Daily Routine Wash: Washing is the very first part of your day. Fine hair has more hair per square centimeter because it is the smallest in diameter. Because of this feature, it gets oily and greasy faster than its thicker counterpart, which makes it limp every day. Washing 4 - 5 times per week with a volumizing formula, shampoo and conditioner helps your hair free up all the oil and dirt build up. Trim: ...

Choosing the Right Gift

Image
Are you looking for that special gift for a special person and occasion but can’t decide what the gift should be? What do you do? Where do you start? Consider this pearl sometimes attributed (perhaps mistakenly) to Pablo Picasso: “The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.” . With that in mind, here are some tips to consider when trying to nail down that extraordinary something you want to share that is so extraordinary you are willing to give it away. What Do You Want to Say? Because giving a gift is a way of communicating how you feel to the recipient, consider what you would most like to share with this person Is it a feeling? Perhaps it is heartfelt advice. How would you put into words that which comes closest to conveying how you feel or what you want to say? What sort of gift most closely reflects those words? What Does the Recipient Like? Make a list of that special person’s likes. If books are on the list, make a list of the books you ...

Happiness Boutique layered necklace & floral statement necklace

Image
I haven't done any outfit posts for so long. I guess the main reason for that is the fact that at the moment I'm a stay at home mom with a 10-month-old baby.  Therefore my everyday outfits are pretty boring - jeans + tees, leggings + tees. But from time to time, when there is a reason to wear something else then, of course I'll wear a cute dress or something more sophisticated. One very important event will come this week - my 6-year old son graduates from the kindergarten. I remember him being just a baby and now he is already 6 and in a few months he will be 7 and in September he will start school. The time really flies ... Anyway, that will be a great opportunity to skip jeans or leggings and wear a dress instead. I'm still debating whether to wear a burgundy red H&M dress I showed you back in September or red dress with lace sleeves from Lindex that I purchased a few months ago. And I'm also trying to make up my mind if I should accessorize my outfit with...

Max Factor Masterpiece Max High Volume & Definition Mascara

Image
I think I used Max Factor mascara for the first time around the age of 15 or so. Since I was constantly on a budget back then, then that mascara seemed to cost a fortune but I remember it was worth every cent ... About a month ago or so Max Factor Estonia offered to 30 of their Facebook fans an opportunity to test Max Factor Masterpiece Max High Volume & Definition Mascara and so, of course, I also tried my luck and I was one of the 30 people who received the mascara. Esimest korda kasutasin ma Max Factori ripsmekat, kui olin umbes 15. Kuna tollal oli mu taskuraha üsna pisike ning seega pidin pidevalt hoolega kaaluma, millele raha kulutada ja millele mitte, siis tundus Max Factori ripsmekas tollal mulle üüber kallis, ent samas siiski väärt igat kulutatud senti ... Umbes kuu aega tagasi pakuti Max Factor Eesti Facebooki lehel 30 õnnelikule võimalust katsetada Max Factor Masterpiece Max High Volume & Definition ripsmekat. Eks siis proovisin ka ja osutusingi üheks õnnelikuks, ...

Bioderma Hydrabio - my new skincare favorites?

Image
I won a set of Bioderma Hydarbio skincare products in last December. In Bioderma makeup bag, I received Hydrabio H2O micellar water, Hydrabio Perfecteur SPF30 and Hydrabio Sérum. I had previously used Bioderma Purifying Cleansing Micelle Solution and quite liked it, then I had high hopes on these too. Minuni jõudis komplekt Bioderma Hydrabio tooteid eelmise aasta lõpus tänu ühele Instagrami loosimisele. Komplektis olid Hydrabio H2O puhastusvesi, Hydrabio Perfecteur SPF30 ja Hydrabio Sérum. Olen varasemalt katsetanud Bioderma Sebium H2O puhastusvett , mis minu rasedusaegsele näonahale sobis täitsa hästi ja seega mu ootused Hydrabio toodetele olid suured. Bioderma Hydarbio skincare products are perfect for dehydrated and sensitive skin that has lost its radiance due to pollution, stress and cold weather. The full range of Hydrabio products contain Aquagenium ™ patent that stimulates the skin's cellular capacities and reactivates its natural hydration process. Bioderma Hydrab...

Nivea Urban Skin Detox Micellar Water

Image
I purchased Nivea Urban Skin Detox Micellar Water back in February. I have used Nivea micellar water before and since they have been good and doesn't cost a fortune, then, I decided to give this one a try. I must say, that it didn't disappoint me. Ostsin Nivea Urban Skin Detox mitsellaarvee veebruaris. Olen ka varasemalt Nivea mitsellaarvett kasutanud ja need on olnud head. Seega ostustasingi seekord siis Urban Detox versiooni kasutada ning mainin kohe ära, et ma ei pidanud pettuma.  Nivea Urban Skin Detox Micellar Water features MicellAIR complex and green tea extract. It effectively removes impurities, makeup and excess sebum. The micellar water mattifies the skin. Urban Skin Detox Micellar Water is clear water-like liquid. Although it  is advertised as fragrance-free, then, in my opinion, it has a mild scent. Using the micellar water is easy - I just apply some micellar water on a cotton bad and then gently wipe my face. I like that it easily removes my makeup - even ...
