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.

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…
