My very first Chanel

And no it's not a bag (gosh I wish haha!) but it's a lipstick. (And I kind of bought it by accident.) I've been craving for ages to try out some Chanel's make ups, since I've heard so much positive things about them and how good they are. Chanel is defo my favorite brand and one day I will actually have one of their bags but until them, I can buy their make-ups since they are something I can afford to ( well okay, they are expensive too but anyway).

I got the colour Rouge Allure 95 Enjouee

Ok so here's how I got it by accident. I went to our local mall little bit earlier before my work because I knew there would be sales, and I actually saw one jacket on the paper that I wanted. Well, I didn't get my jacket and since I still had plenty of time I decided to go check out what kind of offers does one beauty store have to offer. Well, I saw one table there and noticed that it had some Chanel and YSL and Dior products on sale. At first I saw some Chanel lipsticks but then I thought I wont actually need one. I already left the table once but then for some reason I went back and there it was. The most perfect lipstick I've ever seen. On sale. And it was Chanel. This is my chance, I thought, it was like destany had brought it to me, so I had to get it. And even tho it still was kind of expensive (especially for me since I NEVER buy anything that is too pricey) it was 24.50 EUROS on sale, normal price was 44 EUROS, I got it. I've been looking for the right lipstick for a while now, since I really don't own one yet and this was the perfect opportunity for me to get one. And no I still don't regret getting it. It's perfect. I wanted to try it today and I only put it little bit, and it lasted ALL DAY. Like seriously, normally they won't last at all, especially if you drink much or eat, but this one it lasted all day and I was positively surprised.

 

So, if anyone of you is looking for the perfect lipstick, I highly recommend getting Chanel's. I know I will get another Chanel make-ups as soon as I get my first salary haha!

Spring!

Hello friends!

I just came home a little while ago from work and I am so dead, even tho I had a day off yesterday! I am so that it's finally spring-time in Finland too! The sun has been shining and temperatures have been around 10 celsius! I really need to enjoy this, because maybe on Saturday it will be a little bit colder again and possibly it will snow, but I guess it's ok!

I am really proud of my self; I managed to go for a run yesterday, when I had day off! At first I was like nah, I think I will pass and just stay in and watch tv, but then I looked outside and saw how nice the weather was so I changed my mind! I think I might go more often now because I really loved it ;)

I got a new spring jacket and I really love it! I never really had a spring jacket so I was really happy that I found one! I also got a new pair of sunglasses from H&M and I am in love with them too! I have been thinking about getting Ray Bans but I wanted to see how I look like with these first and then later when my first salary comes I might get the real ones ;)

It was a good day

Hello friends!

And good morning! So now that I finally have time I decided to come and update my blog a little bit! I don't have to go to work until 2PM so I have plenty of time to just relax before work!

Few weeks ago on Saturday we had my granny's 80th birthday party. Because our family is not that big, we didn't have anything huge for her. Just a little party with all our closest relatives. After that I had promised to my best friend to go out with her. This is something I usually never do, and I have no idea how she managed to talk me over, haha!  But I'm glad she did because I had so much fun!!

Quick Hi!

Hello friends!

I just wanted to come quickly to say hi to you! I just started a new job yesterday and I have been really tired these two days, since I have to learn so many new things and my head is just full of information right now :D My new job requires alot of standing so it's quite hard and especially today I noticed that my back hurts really much but I hope that with a time it will get easier! But I really love my new job. It's great and I think it will deffinitely be a positive addition to my CV!

I'm sorry that I actually don't have any pictures to add but I have few posts in mind, I already have the material for them BUT it's just that I don't have time right now to write them, but I'll post more as soon as things will get easier (probably on Friday or Saturday) !!

So stay tuned ;)

February Through My Phone

Hello friends! 

I can't believe it's officially spring time now. And for once it actually feels like spring here in Finland too. Usually this time of the year we still have lots of snow and it's cold, but not this year. Almost all the snow has melted and it's warmer than usually. The temperatures are above 0 in a day time, which I'm totally fine with. Even the sun is shining and the birds are singing, me likey! Anyway, since it's already March, I decided to share with you guys some of my February pictures that I've took with my phone. Some of these you have already seen in my blog, some of these I've never published so I hope you enjoy! :) 


Going to the town! I'm wearing my favorite jeans from Topshop!
This coffee was so delicious! It had cookies and cinnamon in it!

My favorite shoes at the moment. I haven't had a chance to wear them yet but ahh they look so pretty, don't they?!?!

at my brothers prom!
Oreo milkshake, yummyyy!

My brother's prom

Frozen yogurt! It wasn't as good as the ones I've had in Cyprus but it was still delicious!
On the train on my way to Tampere!

 
The best salomon salad I've ever had, and of course I made it, haha!

I kind of won these on Facebook and they were so good!
On our way back to home from Tampere!

Stella's Beauty Tip: Homemade footbath

Hello readers!

I don't know about you, but my legs, especially my heels, gets really dry in the winter time. Today I got this great idea to try a homemade footbath with seasalt and guess what, it really worked! Now my heels feel super soft and I'm happy.

All you need for this footbath is :
- seasalt
- warm water
- some kind of big bowl or dish where you can fit your feet and the water
- foot file
- foot cream



First thing that I did was removing some dead skin with the foot file. Then I poured some some seasalt into warm water and put my feet there for about 10 minutes.  You can have them in as long as you like (well, not too long haha!) but because this was my first time I wasn't sure about the time. Next time I'll probably have them longer time, tho! I also took some seasalt in my hand and rubbed it on my heels. I took my feet out about 7 minutes after I put them in and I repeated removing dead skin because I noticed that I still had some dead sking on my heels. After that I put my legs back in for a few more minutes. After the bath I dried my feet and put some cream on them and vola, you are done! :)

This is really easy and fast way and I totally recommend it for all of you! :)

New favorite nail polish

Hello there!

I've recently found the most amazing and perfect nail polish! The colour is right for spring/summertime and it's not like the usual nailpolishes! It's the Rimmel Sweetie Crush with the colour 009 Candyfloss cutie. It gives your nails the sugary look and it dries very fast! Especially for me this is the perfect nail polish because I always manage to ruin my nails after I've put some colour on them but with this nail polish, you can't actually see those little mistakes! And it was only 5.65 Euros, so not bad! I totally recommend this one and I am definitely going to buy some other colours as well!





What do you like? :)
