festival glitter hair and makeup || loreal colorista washout dirty pink


finland in may day / labor day its usual to wear crazy clothes or costumes and go all out with your makeup. i have had so much inspiration from coachella and gypsy shrine glitter hair and makeup.

























i have bought my glitters from ebay. you can also get them from several brands such as nyx, mac, makeup store, h&m.. in the hair is better to use glitter that is bigger size, that is shows. the easiest way to get the glitter stick to the hair is to use hairgel. on the face i use makeup store's mixing liquid to set the glitter. also nyx has their glitter primer and h&m glitter glue. i apply the glitter dipping an eyeshadow brush first to the mixing liquid and then to the glitter. in the face smaller particle size glitter lasts the best, but i did a mixture of different styles. self-adhesive rhinestones i usually find in decor stores, but you can buy them from ebay as well. to make them last longer i usually add lash glue.

i also colored my hair pink with the new loreal colorista washout, in shade dirty pink. 


































apply in the hair after washing with shampoo and drying to towel dry. let it be in the hair up to 30min depending of how deep result you want. wash off, no need to use a conditioner after since the formula of these is very nourishing. to color whole hair (i have long and thick), i had to use 2 tubes. price in finland is 7,50€.

my hair before coloring





















see the first picture of the post to see how the color was after the coloring. the shade is kind of mauve pink.

my hair after 3 washes
 


























as you can see, after 3 washes there is still a slight pink hue. it depends a lot from your hair's condition, how the color pays off and stays on your hair.

l'óreal color riche lipstick 377 perfect red & 131 mistinguette

i'm sorry i've not been updating my blog a lot recently. first i was one week in the country side and then one week sick. now i'm starting university studies about cosmetics chemistry and marketing (so excited!!!) and it's of course taking my time.

but let's go to this day's subject. i wanted to buy an inexpensive red lipstick that is not matte formula. i absolutely love my mac ruby woo lipstick but sometimes you want to use something more creamy and soft. ruby woo is also more blue-tone red and i wanted something warmer toned.



l'óreal color riche lipstick "377 perfect red"
it's actually funny because this lipstick was really the "perfect red" for me. the color is classic warm toned red and the formula is moisturising, but also well pigmented. if you want something more long lasting then this lipstick isn't for you.. but if you are looking for luscious, sexy and soft lips - i really recommend! it is every woman's staple lipstick.

l'óreal color riche matte lipstick "131 mistinguette"
this lipstick was a total impulse buy when i was looking for the red lipstick. when i swatched it on my hand it looked more coral toned pink, so i was a little disappointed how it actually looks on the lips. definitely too pink for me! the formula is matte but if you are used to super matte lipsticks, you wouldn't even call this matte.

the price for each lipstick in finland is around 12,50€.

my lipstick and lip gloss collection part 3/9 corals

sorry there has been one week hiatus on the blog. i was enjoying one week holiday in lovely barcelona, and i had scheduled posts to appear when i was gone, but for some reason that hasn't worked! but now we will continue as usual :)

(part 1part 2)




mac mineralize rich "be a lady"













be a lady is that kind of color that looks pink in another and orangy in another light, that's why i decided to put it in corals. mineralize rich lipsticks are really nice and easy lipsticks, because they glide easy to the lips, they are soft and moisturising, but also have more pigment than for example the cremesheen lipsticks. this lovely color suits for everyone and even its bright, i would describe it classy. price: 24,50€

maybelline color sensational vivids lipstick "910 shocking coral"












maybelline's shocking coral is also pinky kind of coral. the formula is moisturising, but also really well pigmented. i think i haven't wore this a lot, because i really don't have much to say.. price: 9,60€

l'óreal color riche lip colour"373 magnetic coral"












the magnetic coral is definitely more orangy coral. it is one of my first lipsticks, and i used to wear it all the time in the summer 2012. nowadays i have more coral/orange options, so this one has been stucked in the shelf.. i think one of the reasons is that it has a bit of glitter in it, so i'm not so keen of the finish (anymore). i would say this one has a bit drier formula than the maybelline's lipstick. price: 12,50€

isadora moisturizing lip gloss "14 coral glow"













as you can see, this lip gloss doesn't have much pigment. i'm not really a lip gloss person, because i don't like the stickiness, but if i would use this, i would apply it on top of coral/orange lipstick. (and now you wonder why i even own this product.. sometimes you get blinded by the sales :D) price: 12,50€
