How to get the perfect black smokey eye look?
If you want to see more of my makeup looks I suggest that you follow me on Instagram (@henna.vee), since I tend to post most of my looks there instead of uploading them to blog. This black smokey eye was based on IG live Petra from Viilankantolupa and Elisa from Miten niin liikaa? blogs hosted. They host one live each Saturday on Elisa’s Instagram and the idea for the makeup look can come from pretty much anything. You know when you start doing black smokey eye and in the middle you doubt that it will turn into anything pretty –…

Products I’ve loved enough to repurchase – more than once
Includes affiliate links When I was doing my evening skincare routine earlier this week I realized most of the items I use are my “holy grail” products, or products I’ve enjoyed enough to repurchase them more than once. Like most people I tend to stick to products that I enjoy – hence buying same ones over and over again. Due to my blog not being updated regularly at the moment, I do not get much PR anymore. This has actually been great since I actually get to use up my backups and buy products I like and enjoy. I hate…

No-buy / low-buy for 2021 – my rules and why I’m doing this
Even though I published some products/brands I want to try this year – I should probably tell you about my bigger goal for 2021. I have decided to go on a no-buy (quite strict one at that) this year. Why? I have accumulated a lot of beauty products – from PR as well but mainly – from just buying too much. I have way more makeup that I could ever use up before they go off. I have also listed my skincare items – and for now I have backups/similar products to pretty much every single step on my skincare.…

Let’s talk about trash – finished products of 2020
Products marked with * before the name are PR samples. I already wrote a blog post (in Finnish) about first 6 months’ finished products of 2020. So this post is about the finished products from July onwards. And I’m sorry it took over 2 months to get this live but then again, talking about used up products doesn’t have a time limit. Due to working from home I didn’t go through many makeup products – even though I should probably throw out few mascaras now that I think of it. But I only managed to finish one liner – and…

Brands I want to try in 2021
How crazy is it to make a wishlist for brands I want to try when I should be on a really low-buy? A bit? A lot? Yeah, maybe. But anyway, you’re getting a list of brands I would really like to try this year – or other years to come – and haven’t tried yet for whatever reason. I stole this idea from Angelica Nyqvist – a Swedish Youtuber, if you don’t follow her, I suggest you do. Lethal Cosmetics – like I need any more makeup, especially eyeshadows BUT their shadows look so divine! They make single shadows and…

Welcome to 2021!
Hi all and welcome to 2021! Either this year will be better than 2020 – or then Mad Max was right and at least Melbourne, Australia will have it worse this year. As you who have read my blog before might’ve now noticed that wait: “I’m not reading Finnish!”, you would be absolutely correct. When I started my blog back in 2009 – yeah, I’ve been around for a long time, believe it or not – I wrote in English. Those of you who followed me back in the day might remember this and also some of you might’ve stopped…

Best of 2020
Vaikka tämä vuosi ei ole ehkä ollut se kosmetiikkapainotteisin ainakaan omassa elämässäni, niin kyllä niitä suosikkituotteita silti löytyy aika monesta kategoriasta – osa tämän vuoden uutuuksia, osa minulle uusia tuotteita. Ihonhoito Tänä vuonna eniten olen kiinnittänyt huomiota ihonhoitoon, sillä meikinkäyttö on jäänyt aika satunnaiseksi. Niinpä ei ihme, että ihonhoidossa on ehkä löytynyt niitä suosikkituotteita. Pixi Glow Peel Pads Maskne on ollut kova sana tänä vuonna, vaikka itse en joudu maskia edes päivittäin käyttämään. Mutta ihoni on silti tarvinnut päivittäisen Pixi Glow Tonicin lisäksi vähän rankempaa kuorintaa, sen on hoitanut Pixin Glow Peel Padsit. Nämä ovat niin helppoja – vaikkakin turhaa…
