Today before doing makeup on my first client of the day I quickly stopped at MAC. I was in need for a base/primer and I had previously decided to get something at MAC. Since we only have a MAC counter and not a MAC store, we don't always get the whole products range. This meant that the product I had chosen might not be available. And it wasn't. But the girl at the counter suggested this MAC Prep+Prime Skin Smoother Base Visage. Throughout the next week I'll be doing makeup at an apartment in the city centre so I left my whole kit there. This means I can't play around with the product during the weekend, waah. :D

Täna enne esimest lõpumeiki hüppasin kiirelt MACist läbi. Kõik mu praimerid olid otsa saanud ning netist uurides valisin välja ühe MACi toote. Poes seda küll polnud, kuid MACi konsultant soovitas midagi muud: MAC Prep+Prime Skin Smoother Base Visage. Kuna teen uue nädala jooksul jumestust kesklinnas ühes korteris, jätsin kogu oma meigikohvri sinna. Sealhulgas ka sellesama uue beebi.

I can already feel how I'm itching to get my hands on it again. Once I get to play around with it and test it out on my skin I'll write a review about it (: Until then I'll admire pictures of this sparkling compact. Have you tried anything form MAC? Or maybe you have used this particular product?

Ma tunnen, kuidas näpud sügelevad ja tahaks seda toodet uudistada. Sain juba täna klientide peal seda ka katsetada, aga see pole päris see, mis oma nahal järele proovimine. Pealegi minu rasune nahk paneb kõik tooted proovile. Seniks, kuni ma seda näppida ei saa, imetlen aga pilte sellest sädelevast karbikesest. Kui aga olen ise pikemalt järele proovinud toote, kirjutan ka kohe arvustuse! Kas oled midagi MACilt kasutanud? On Sul mõni toode, mida kindlasti proovida tahad?

I've been testing the VS Sheer Love body scrub for a while now. Sheer Love has a blend of white cotton and pink lily and the scent is amazing. The scent has a fresh feel and a candy-like "afterscent". When using it it fills the bathroom with a lovely sweet scent and it lingers on the skin although it's very light then.

Eelmisel nädalal, kui mäletate, sain endale proovimiseks kaks Victoria's Secreti toodet. Esimene neist on täna teie ees. Selleks on Sheer Love kehakoorija. Lõhnaks on valge puuvill ja roosa liilia, mis kokku moodustavad imelise lõhna - kergelt värske kuid samas veidi kommise noodiga. Kogu vannituba täitub selle lõhnaga ning väga õrnalt jääb see hiljem ka nahale.

The packaging says it's a dual-action sugar scrub. This means it acts as a scrub and a body wash. The consistency is fairly thick and I discovered I have to store it on it's side. Otherwise all the sugar will settle to the cap and it's impossible to squeeze anything out as it gets really thick that way. They suggest using it on wet skin, focusing on rough points. I discovered that if my skin is too wet the sugar particles melt and dissolve a bit too quickly. Today I used it on a bit drier skin and the sugar lasted just as long as I wanted it to. When I felt it was enough the particles dissolved and the product foamed up. The scrub made my skin soooo smooth and silky. I don't really need a moisturizer after that but the water in our house dries the skin a bit. If it weren't for that I wouldn't apply any body lotion at all. If you haven't tried it then you really should. It's one of the best body scrubs I have used. Have you tried anything from Victoria's Secret?

Tegu on kahetoimelise suhkruga kehakoorijaga - kõigepealt koorid ning siis ajad vahule. Nii käitub see koorija ja duššigeelina. Tegu on keskmiselt paksu konsistentsiga tootega. Esimene asi, mida märkasin on see, et peaksin seda hoidma pigem külili, kui püsti. Kui seda püsti hoian, langeb kõik suhkur seal sees korgi juurde ning siis on seda võimatu välja pigistada. Teine asi mida märkasin on see, et mida märjemale nahale seda kanda, seda kiiremini suhkur ära sulab ning seda kiiremini muutub see vahutavaks dušsigeeliks. Täna kastsin end märjaks ja sel ajal kui pead pesin, lasin kehal õigepisut kuivada. Kandsin toote õrnalt niiskele nahale ning siis kestis koorija täpselt nii kaua kui mul vaja oli. Nahk jäi tõesti mõnusalt sile ja siidine. Kui meie vesi nahka ei kuivataks, ei olekski mul vaja mingit kehakreemi pärast koorija kasutamist nahale kanda. Kes veel pole proovinud, siis tehke seda kindlasti! See on ausalt üks parimaid koorijaid, mida ma proovinud olen. Saadaval on see glamora.ee e-poes ning selle hind on 18€. Kas olete VS tooteid kasutanud varem?

Best packages are the unexpected ones. Yesterday I checked my mailbox and had 2 package notes there. I instantly knew what they were since I was waiting for 2 pacages. When I got to the post office I only recognized one of the packages. Once I read the senders address on the unfamiliar package I gasped so loud I scared a girl standing next to me, oops :D. It was a birthday present from my sister who's spending the summer in the USA.

Mu õde, kes veedab suve USAs üllatas mind ning pani salaja teele ühe pakikese. Postkontoris kui avastasin, et see on temalt, tegin veidi liiga valjult üllatunud häält (ja nägu), sest Joel väitis, et üks neiu kes mu lähedal seisis, ehmus sellest päris ära.

This card makes me tear up every time I try to read it :D So when we took the picture where I'm reading it I just stared at a blank space. I love her so much and I miss her just as much. The words really touched me because that's how things are between us. (:

See kaart läks nii südamesse. Õde on korduvalt käinud USAs ja iga kord mulle niivõrd südamlikud kaardid saatnud, et ma hakkan alati peaaegu nutma neid lugedes. Ei läinud mul kergemini ka see kord, silmad lähevad iseenesest märjaks. Õnneks on kurbusest asi kaugel. (:

My favorite snacks and candies etc are anything with peanut butter. So whenever she goes to the USA I ask her to bring back or send me some peanut butter M&M's. Aaah, so good!

Kes mind vähegi teab, peaks teadma minu armastust igasugu maiuste vastu, milles on pähklivõi sees. Nii lasengi õel alati USAst saata või tuua mulle pähklivõiga M&M'se.

And here's the rest of the package. You know how much I love my NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder, right? So she sent me 2 more! One in Taupe/Ash which I have and one in Blonde. She also got me a Physicians Formula Powder Palette, a Sally Hansen Maximum Strength nail polish which can be used on its own or as a base coat (I was about to go and get some base coat :D) and the last product made me laugh out loud. It's pretty much a chafing relief gel and my only thought was "there has to be an explanation to this!" And there was. You can see the little note in front of it. (; Have you tried any of the products she sent me?

Ülejäänud asju näete pildilt. Kõige suurem nali oli selle sinise tuubiga. Algselt on tegu hõõrdumise vastase geeliga mida siis...bikiinipiirkonnas kasutada. Kui seda nägin, hakkasin naerma ja mõtlesin, et siin peab mingi konks olema. Sildikeselt näete, milles konks oli. Kas olete midagi nendest toodetest proovinud?

Thank you so much sweetheart! You know how to make my day even if we're almost 8000km apart.

During summer fragrance sprays are one of my favorite body products. It's so easy to mist it on plus they're refreshing at the same time. I received a Victoria's Secret fragrance spray in Secret Crush and I've been enjoying it for a while now. It smells of peonies (my favorite flowers) and peach blossoms. It's very sweet yet somewhat fresh. The scent lingers on the skin for many many hours. I could get away using it just as a perfume and reapplying it once during the day but I just like "soaking" myself in it. The scent on the skin isn't too overpowering or strong so you won't smell like you've emptied your whole perfume when you've gone a bit overboard. It comes in a 250ml/8.4 fl oz and I think it'll last me throughout the summer and maybe even a bit more. Have you tried any fragrance sprays from VS?

Suvel on mu vaieldamatuks lemmikuks erinevad kehaspreid. Lisaks heale lõhnale on need ka meeldivalt värskendavad. Glamora kinkis mulle selleks suveks ühe Victoria's Secreti kehasprei nimega Secret Crush. See lõhnab pojengide ja virsikuõite järgi ning teadupärast on pojengid mu lemmiklilled. See lõhnab magusalt nagu kõik VS tooted kuid ka sellel on kergelt värske feeling juures. Lõhn kestab nahal mitu tundi mistõttu saaks seda iseenesest kasutada ka parfüümina, päeva jooksul korra värskendades. Minule aga meeldib seda üle keha piserdada. Õnneks ei jää lõhn nahale nii tugevalt, et käiksid kogu päeva ringi kui parfüümipudel, kui oled piserdamisega liiale läinud. Glamora e-poes on selle toote hinnaks 22€ ning ärge unustage, et registreeritud kasutajana sisestades koodi liina10, saate ostult 10% soodustust! Kas te olete mõnda VS kehaspreid kasutanud? Olete äkki mõne muu brändi kehaspreisid proovinud?

Sending a little smile your way, just because. I'll be spending a few days in Saaremaa (biggest island in Estonia) and I hope to work on some blog posts while I'm there. This weekend is the second biggest holiday in Estonia - Midsummer Eve. Do you celebrate Midsummer Eve? All across Estonia people light huge bonfires on the 23rd and just have an awesome time with friends. We also get the 24th off which this year happens to be a Monday. So most people already go out of town today, just like me and my friends. This way we'll have a 3-day weekend and I'm going to enjoy it as best as I can. What are your plans for Midsummer Eve and if you don't celebrate it what are you doing this weekend?

Sõidame täna õhtul juba sõpradega Saaremaale, kuna selleaastase Jaanipäeva plaanime seal pidada. Enne tuleb mul veel aga mitu tüdrukut veel lõpumeiki, seega minu päev on pikk ja tegus. Üritan Saaremaal veidi blogipostitusi ette valmistada ning ka vlogida. Praegu ootangi esimest klienti, tühjendan kaameratel mälukaarte ja naudin suve. Kirjutage mulle kindlasti kus teie sel aastal Jaanipäeva tähistate ja kui see ei ole teie jaoks oluline püha, siis rääkige lihtsalt mis teil sel nädalavahetusel plaanis on. Loeksin teie plaanidest suurima rõõmuga (:

We spent a long weekend in Saaremaa. Today I "recovered" the whole day. I'm someone who recharges her batteries while spending some time alone so today I did nothing and just enjoyed being alone. I still feel tired but better than this morning. During those 3,5 days I enjoyed the best company, made new friends and forgot all about...well.. pretty much everything. I only kept in touch with my mom and some friends that reached out to me instead. We also took some outfit photos while we were there so a few posts are coming in the next few days.

Veetsin imelise pika nädalavahetuse ja jaanipäeva sõpradega Saaremaal. Seltskond oli parim, pidu kestis hommikust õhtuni ja õhtust hommikuni. Meie punt polnud väga suur, ega ka mitte väga väike. Pidevalt oli kohal 15 inimest, tänu millele olen tänaseks täiesti läbi. Terve tänase olen akusid laadinud, kuna teen seda kõige paremini üksi olles. Saaremaal olles unustasin ära praktiliselt kõik ning hoidsin ühendust vaid emaga ja mõne sõbraga kes ise minuga ühendust võtsid. Internet oli seal praktiliselt olematu, mistõttu sai end täielikult välja lülitada ja seda täiel rinnal nautida. Minu jaanipäev oli imeline, loodan, et seda oli ka teie oma!

For our second evening there I chose a light and airy tunic that I tucked into my navy shorts. When it got colder during the night I just replaced my shorts with leggings, untucked the tunic and added a belt. I don't have a picture of that because it got too dark to take pictures but both the first and the altered version were perfect for a BBQ evening with friends.

Teise päeva õhtul panin selga tuunika ja lühikesed püksid. Kui külmemaks läks, panin lühikeste pükste asemel jalga retuusid ning jätsin tuunika retuuside peale. Suveõhtul sõpradega grillimiseks ideaalne.

Outfit:

Tunic - Vero Moda

Shorts - Reserved

Scarf - a gift

Sandals - Shu

I can't stress this enough how much I love sickly sweet scents. When Avon introduced their new products on a lovely Spring morning I put my eye on their new Avon Naturals Nourishing Indulgence bodycare line with apricot and shea. The scent is sweet and strong, exactly my cup of tea. Compared to VS scents which are mostly floral, this scent is fruity. I was more than happy when Avon gave me these products to try them out. I got a fragrance spritz (100ml), a hand and body lotion (200ml) and a shower gel (200ml).

Ma ei väsi kordamast kui väga jumaldan imalmagusaid lõhnu. Kui Avon ühel mõnusal kevadhommikul uudistooteid tutvustas, jäi Avon Naturals Nourishing Indulgence sarja aprikoosi ja shea toodete lõhn mind kohe kummitama. Kui need tooted ka endale proovimiseks sain, olin rohkem kui õnnelik. Minul on kehasprei (100ml), käte- ja kehakreem (200ml) ja duššigeel (200ml). Kõigi toodete täishind on 4.70€. Kui VS tooted on pigem lillelõhnalised, siis nagu nimestki juba järeldub, on nende lõhn puuviljane.

The shower gel didn't rock me too much. It is a regular shower gel that smells good, lathers up well and doesn't dry out the skin. Nevertheless every night my hand reaches out for the hand and body lotion. The scent lingers on my skin even in the morning and it moisturizes amazingly well. The fragrance spritz.. mmmm. I wish I had a perfume that smelled just like it! Besides being refreshing it leaves your skin smelling yummy for the whole day. These three are my staple products for the summer! I love having all products from a line, especially when they smell as good as these do! Have you tried any of the Avon Naturals range products?

Duššigeel mind oluliselt ei kõigutanud, kuna tegu on klassikalise hea duššigeeliga - sellel on võrratu lõhn, vahutab hästi ning ei kuivata nahka. Küll aga sirutan iga kord pärast pesu käe kehakreemi järele, mis niisutab suurepäraselt hästi ning jätab kerge lõhna nahale kogu päevaks. Teienkord on õrnast lõhnast natuke vähe ning siis meeldib mulle kehaspreisid kasutada. See jätab nahale tunduvalt intensiivsema lõhna kui kehakreem ja ma väga tahaks, et mul oleks kapiserval sellise lõhnaga lõhnaõli. Kas olete neid või mingeid teisi tooteid Avon Naturals sarjast kasutanud?

On Friday we went to Saaremaa for 3,5 days. I filmed a travel makeup bag video and was planning on uploading it during the weekend. That didn't really go as planned since as I already mentioned we didn't have a decent internet there at all. But it doesn't really matter when I upload it, right? (: Check out the video to see what makeup items I packed with me! Even though we only had our people there it felt nice to take 10 minutes every evening to get ready for BBQ etc. I fell in love with black eyeliner all over again while I was there.

Vaata videost millised meigitooted minuga Saaremaale kaasa tulid.

Sigma large powder brush F30; Sedona Lace tulip brush FB 03; black blending brush EB 15; synthetic blending brush EB 15; white blending brush EB 09; angled brush EB 23

Rimmel bronzer in 021; Physicians Formula Mosaic Powder in Peach Nude; Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream in Medium; Avon Infinitize mascara; Maybelline Master Precise liquid liner; Too Faced Shadow Insurance; NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder in Taupe/Ash; Maybelline Color Whispers in 430 Coral Ambition and 210 Oh La Lilac; L'Oreal Glam Shine Stain Splash in 200 Princess; MAC eyeshadows in Satin Taupe and Brulé; Miyo eyeshadow in 03 Breeze

Today I received yet another package note and I instantly knew what it was. Last week a Slovenian company called Equa contacted me. They specialize in environment friendly plastic and glass bottles and offered me one as well. Since I like to carry around water or other drinks with me but never have a decent looking bottle plus the regular plastic bottles are not reusable I instantly said yes.

Eelmine nädal võttis minuga ühendust Jaanika Sloveeniast, kes töötab sellises ettevõttes nagu Equa. Equa spetsialiseerub keskkonnasõbralike pudelite tootmisele ning pakkus lahkelt ka minule proovimiseks ühte. (Suur aitäh!) Kuna ma kannan tihti veepudelit endaga kaasas, ütlesin koheselt jah. Esiteks olen juba kuulnud, et tavalised plastpudelid ei ole korduvkasutatavad ning võivad tervisele negatiivset mõju avaldada. Teiseks kes ikka tahab mingi tavalise veepudeliga ringi käia, kui on olemas ka ilusa disainiga pudeleid, eks?

I will tell you more about it in a future post when I have used it for a while. I literally just took it out of the package and havent washed it or put any liquids in it yet so I don't know how good is the cap etc. The weather has gotten super hot here in Estonia so the bottle arrived at the perfect time. I'll be spending the weekend out of town again so I can test out the bottle (not much testing though :D). I just wanted to share my joy because look how pretty the bottle is! (: Have you heard anything from Equa brand?

Kui olen pudelit veidi katsetanud, räägin teile sellest lähemalt. Palju katsetamist võimalik teha pole, kuid eelkõige huvitab mind näiteks kui hästi kork vett peab. Tihtilugu on termotassidega näiteks suureks probleemiks see, et kotti ei saagi seda panna, kuna kork lekib. Sõidame nädalavahetuseks Pärnusse ja kuna ilmad on läinud väga palavaks, on see just õige aeg vedelike kaasaskandmiseks. Kas olete sellest brändist midagi kuulnud?

Kõik soovijad saavad tellida omale ükskõik millise pudeli ilma postikuluta Sloveeniast Eestisse! Seega maksta tuleb vaid pudeli enda eest!

On Sunday we drove around the island and we managed to snap a few photos at Panga Cliff. It's a coastal cliff located on the northern shore of Saaremaa and is the highest of Saaremaa and Muhu (both are Estonian islands) cliffs. The view there is amazing and I believe sunsets and sunrises are breathtaking there. We also visited some springs and went for a swim at Karujärve.

Pühapäeva päeval käisime Panga pangal, Karujärves ujumas ning allikatest vett võtmas.

For the trip I chose a light mint dress that was perfect for the day. It was a birthday present from my boyfriend.

Ringisõitmiseks valisin heleda mündikarva kleidi, mis tol palaval päeval oli ideaalne. Kleit on sünnipäevakink Joelilt.

Mint dress - Bershka

Bikinis (even though you can't really see them) - Cropp Town

After driving around the island we made some BBQ and waited for the right time to light the bonfire. Like the day before I went for an airy blouse, navy shorts and a light loose cardigan. When it got chillier I again swapped my shorts for my floral leggings.

Pärast saarel tiirutamist hakkasime grillima ja valmistusime jaanilõkke süütamiseks. Ilm oli soe, seega valisin taaskord õhulise heleda pluusi, lühikesed püksid ja õhukese värvilise jakikese. Hiljem vahetasin jälle lühikesed püksid retuuside vastu välja.

On Saturday I even put on my winter jacket as it got really cold at night. On Sunday evening it was perfectly warm throughout the night and we got to celebrate Midsummer Eve (the shortest night of the year) until the Sun was high up in the sky. We also enjoyed some barrel sauna so that probably played it's role in the "not needing warm clothes" part.

Kui laupäeva öösel pidin lausa talvejope selga panema, siis pühapäeva öö oli mõnusalt soe ning peale retuuside muud pikemat ei vajanud. Ilmselt mängis selles ka oma rolli tünnisaun.

Blouse - Vero Moda

Shorts - Reserved

Cardigan - New Yorker

You can even kind of see the leggings on this picture, but they'll be in my next OOTD post as well. - I'm on the left. / Vasakul näete isegi veidi mu retuuse, mis on ka mu järgmises OOTD postituses.

On Friday we drove to Pärnu again. The weather was a bit chillier so I went for my floral leggings. I love them soooooooo much! I never thought I would wear printed leggings but when I saw these in H&M in Spring I just had to try them.

Reedel sõitsime jälle Pärnu. Ilmad on pisut jahedamad seega otsustasin taaskord oma lilleliste retuuside kasuks. Ma poleks elusees ette kujutanud, et kunagi kannan mustriga retuuse, kuid kui neid kevadel H&Mis nägin, olin kohe armunud.

If you follow me on Twitter and/or Instagram you know I got stund by a bee. On this picture you can slightly see that my right foot (the left side one on the picture :D) is a bit bigger than my left foot. ): I stopped by the emergency room at night so luckily it got tons better by Saturday! Yay! (:

Kes mind Instagramis ja/või Twitteris jälgib teab, et sain nädala sees mesilaselt nõelata. Sellel pildil on isegi pisut näha, et mu parem jalg (pildil vasakpoolne) on kergelt suurem kui vasak jalg. Käisime reede öösel ikkagi ka EMOs, kus anti mulle rohtu tänu millele oli laupäeval jalg juba palju palju parem! Jeee! (:

Last night me and some friends spent quite a few hours picking blueberries. Since I carry my EQUA bottle everywhere with me I decided to snap a few photos for today's post as well. Today I'll tell you more about the EQUA bottle I have and the story behind these.

Eile õhtul läksime sõpradega mustikale. Kuna mu EQUA pudel käib minuga pea kõikjal kaasas, klõpsisime pudelist tänase postituse jaoks ka metsas paar pilti.

From Equa website: "EQUA’s name is derived from the words ECO and AQUA, if we put those two words together, we get an EQUA sign. Therefore, our EQUA logo embodies a drop in motion sea coloured within which there is a green leaf. EQUA bottles are BPA free which means you are using them to reduce the risk of hormonal disorders, allergies, prostate cancer and breast cancer. In addition, EQUA reusable bottles have a diverse designs that are attractive and vivid. Surely you will find in the collection your favourite colour and design. Because we want to live in a clean environment, EQUA donates 10 % of net profits from the sale to ecological organizations."

Minule saatis pudeli Jaanika, kes töötab hetkel Sloveenias ettevõttes, mis toodab EQUA pudeleid. Lisan siia lõigu tema kirjast: "Miks võiksid ka Sina valida EQUA pudeli? Nagu ma juba mainisin, ei sisalda EQUA pudel kemikaali bisfenool A-d (BPA), mida leidub enamikes ühekordsetes plastikpudelites. BPA-d seostatakse selliste haigustega nagu rinnavähk, hormonaalsed häired ja allergiad. Meie pudel on valmistatud kvaliteetsest Eastman Tritan plastikust, mis püsib muutumatuna kuni 10 aastat. Pudeleid on paljude erinevate disainidega- nii värvilisi ja rõõmsaid, kui ka elegantseid ja noortepäraseid. Peale selle saab veel valida kahe suuruse vahel- 400 ml ja 600 ml. Ning kuna pudelil on kõrge kuumataluvus, saab sealt juua ka kuumi jooke."

The bottles come in 2 sizes: 600ml and 400ml, mine is the bigger one. There are plastic and glass bottles, mine is from the plastic range. The main thing I was concerned about was the bottle cap. What if it doesn't hold the water in and starts leaking into my bag? I filled the bottle, turned it upside down and gave it a good shake. Not a drop came out so the cap is really secure.

Nagu eelnevast juba selgus, tuleb pudel kahes suuruses ning lisaks plastikule on EQUA tootevalikus ka klaaspudelid. Pudelite kujundused on seinast-seina, igale maitsele leidub midagi. Põhiline, mis mulle selle pudeli puhul muret tekitas oli kork ja selle veepidavus. Täitsin pudeli veega, keerasin selle tagurpidi ja loksutasin. Ühtegi tilka välja ei tulnud, seega vähemalt minu pudel on vägagi veekindel.

I haven't tried it with hot drinks yet but for cold water it's been perfect. If you get the chance then definitely try this bottle out!

Mina olen oma pudeliga rohkem kui rahul ja veelkord suur tänu Jaanikale! Veel homseni (so 4.07.13) on võimalus tellida pudeleid EQUA lehelt saatmiskuludeta! Maksta tuleb vaid pudeli enda eest! http://myequa.com/products-page/ lehelt saate välja valida endale meelepärase pudeli. Ostu sooritades sisesta kood MinuEQUA. Pakkumine kehtib kuni 04.07.

We've been looking for inexpensive yet good looking nightstands for a while. We had unusual measurements so most nightstands were just too wide. Like most people during Summer I get into a redecorating/repairing/renovating mode. Also when I get an ide I need to do it superfast. :D I just get way too excited. While I was trying to figure out where to get suitable nightstands I suddenly realized we had two stools from my childhood unused. So why not give them some love use them? I feel like they were my two ugly ducklings that turned into beautiful white swans (:

Nagu paljudel teistel, on ka minul suveperioodil suur tahtmine kas remonti teha, midagi parandada või uuendada. Suvel on rohkem aega ja üldse kuidagi mõnusam. Väga paljud minu lapsepõlvesuved seostuvad remondiga. Oleme Joeliga pikalt oma voodi kõrvale öökappe otsinud. Kuna mõõdud on veidi väiksemad kui 90% mida poodides pakutakse, tuli veidi teisiti kogu murele läheneda. Leidsin kodust oma lapsepõlvest pärit taburetid, mis imekombel mahuvad voodi kõrvale ideaalselt. Otsustasin neile uue elu sisse puhuda ning need kasutusse võtta.

I started with taking off one of the horizontal pieces since they're on the exact same height as our wall-plugs. Then I started sanding them down to a smooth finish. Firstly you never paint a glossy/shiny surface. Also, they've been used a lot, just not in the recent years. Both stools had several marks on the legs and one of them had a pretty tired looking and feeling seating board. When I turned the same color like the stools from all the sanding I checked if everything was smooth, cleaned up all the dust and started painting. I did two layers and the end result is pretty neat. In addition to the stools I've been working on two shelves as well, you can imagine how tired I am from all the sanding and painting. :D

Alustasin ühe horisontaalse jupi äravõtmisega, sest need on täpselt sama kõrgel kui meie pistikupesad. Esialgu lihvisin taburetid ilusti tasaseks. Esiteks ei värvita läikivaid pindu ja teiseks oli neil omajagu kasutusjälgi. Ühe tabureti isteplaat oli näiteks kõvasti hullemas seisus kui teine. Kui ma olin juba viis korda lihvimisest loobunud (samal ajal oli mul käsil ka kaks riiulit, nelja mööblieseme lihvimine muutub üheltmaalt igavaks ja üksluiseks) oligi aeg värvima hakata. Kandsin peale kaks kihti värvi ja nii mina kui Joel jäime tulemusega väga rahule.

I used a special furniture paint. This paint dries fast, it's dry to the touch in two hours so don't go outside with it. I did the first layer outside so my paint was dry in like.. two minutes. At first I didn't like this paint at all since after the first layer had dried it felt a bit too rough and looked completely matte. When I added the second layer the paint looked a ton better.

Kasutasin VivaColori spetsiaalset mööblivärvi. Õues sellega värvida ei soovita kuna see kuivab kiirelt. Toas värvides on see puutekuiv kahe tunniga, õues umbes kahe minutiga. Nii kandsingi teise kihi värvi peale hoopis toas ning siis viisin õue kuivama.

And here is the end result. As you can see the horizontal piece would've gotten in the way big time. When did you last do any DIY projects? What was it?

Ja nagu postituse alguses ka näha oli, siis siin on lõpptulemus. Meie oleme igatahes väga rahul. Millal teie mõne DIY projektiga tegelesite? Mis see oli?

On my nails: Maybelline Colorama 94 and Colorama Polka Dots 197 & don't mind the paint stain on my pinky finger :D

On Wednesday I received these awesome new Maybelline Colorama Polka Dots nail polishes. When I first saw this concept form Illamasqua it didn't appeal to me at all. It was probably because of the color scheme. I didn't like how they had a light creamy base and a ton of colorful specs, it looked a bit cheap to me. But I think these Polka Dots look a lot better because their colors don't make the nail polishes look cheap.

Kolmapäeval sain endale kolm uut Maybelline Colorama Polka Dots küünelakki. Kui ma seda kontseptsiooni esimest korda nägin, mõtlesin, et see kõik näeb odav välja. Nägin esialgu kreemja põhja peal värvilisi täppe, mis minule kuidagi meeldima ei hakanud. Maybelline'i toonivalik on aga kõvasti rohkem minu meele järele.

The shades I have are 197 (black&white), 200 (blueish green) and 198 (navy). For someone who thinks glitter nail polishes are a bit too much for everyday wear, these are a great alternative. They are hard to get off just like glitter nail polish but that doesn't really bother me. I don't know about other regions and countries but in Estonia they'll be out soon. Have you tried any nail polishes like these?

Minu toonid on 197 (must-valge), 200 (sinakas roheline) ja 198 (tumesinine). Usun, et inimesele kelle jaoks sädelevad glitterlakid igapäevaseks veidi liiast on, sobib selline küünelakk imehästi. Nagu glitterlakke, on ka neid raske maha saada, kuid mind see ei morjenda üldse. Poodidesse jõuavad need peagi! Kas olete midagi sellesarnast näinud/proovinud juba?

Today I woke up, ready to continue with the painting madness. And then I noticed my skin had completely cleared up! I was so happy and at first didn't understand how or why. Then I thought about it - lot's of liquids lately and I've been keeping up with my skincare and applying Oriflame Bioclinic day/night cream every night. In my skincare I always want to have a product that'll combat any red spots overnight. When Oriflame sent me this product I was on the fence about it, as I'm always with new skicare products, especially creams. Many of you guys said you've tried it and love it. Usually I prefer a bit stronger products that I only need to use when I get a new spot but with this one I have to apply it every night. What Oriflame says about the product: "Potent anti-breakout day/night treatment in a hygienic pump bottle. Centella Asiatica and Salicylic Acid clear pores, targets breakouts and fades away post-blemish scars. Apply morning and evening to cleansed face, concentrating on spot prone areas. Non-comedogenic suitable for all skin types."So it is a cream not for moisturizing but for smoothing the skin's surface.

Täna hommikul üles ärgates avastasin peeglisse vaadates toreda üllatuse: mu näonahal polnud mitte ühtegi punetavat punnikest! Kuna mul on väga rasune ning mingil määral tundlik näonahk, on üks-kaks punni mulle alati saatjaks. Esialgu ma ei saanudki kohe aru, et mis ikkagi mu näonaha nii klaariks on teinud. Siis mõistsin, et palju vedelikku ning Oriflame Bioclinic päeva- ja öökreem on imet teinud. Oriflame ise ütleb toote kohta nii: "Hügieenilises pudelis on võimekas aknevastane päeva-/öökreem. Aasia vesinaba koos salitsüülhappega puhastavad poore, võitlevad punnikeste ning iluvigadest põhjustatud armidega. Kanna hommikuti ja õhtuti puhastatud nahale, pöörates tähelepanu probleemsetele piirkondadele. Ei ummista poore ja sobib mis tahes nahatüübile." Seega pole tegu mitte niisutava vaid hoopis naha pinda siluva kreemiga.

Sorry for the sleepyface, I took the photo 10 minutes after waking up :D

But as I already mentioned I've been keeping up with my skincare routine recently and it has finally paid off! (: I'm so happy. I still prefer the stronger products and always want to have at least one on my dresser but as you can see from the picture above Bioclinic works amazingly as well! I have very oily slightly acne prone skin that always gets hyperpigmentation as well. I believe Bioclinic has also cleared that up. It's amazing how much the state of my skin can affect my overall mood. Have you tried this product or anything else from Oriflame Bioclinic range?

Enamasti eelistan veidi kangemaid kreeme punnidega võitlemiseks, kui see, kuna ma ei ole oma nahahoolduses alati eriti järjepidev. Nii ei näinud ma ka selle kreemi tulemusi üle kuu aja. Nüüd olen viimastel nädalaltel igal õhtul seda peale määrinud ja tulemus on teie ees. See maksab Oriflame'i kodulehel 22,29€ ning minumeelest tasub see igati ära. Kas olete seda kreemi või mõnda muud toodet Oriflame Bioclinic sarjast proovinud?

Today my friend suddenly told me "You haven't blogged in a while!". This made me laugh since she has a big part to play in it actually. But let's take a walk down the memory lane so I can share a few bits from my busy weekend. It flew by in a flash and luckily the weather was perfect!

Täna ütles mu sõbranna äkitselt: "Sa pole nii ammu bloginud!". See ajas mind naerma, kuna temal on selles üsna suur osa kanda. Paari pildi näol võtan teid möödunud nädalavahetuse mälestustesse.

We spent the whole weekend at our friends's place that live really close to us. They wanted to build a playhouse for their daughter and needed a few extra helping hands. The company was great, the weather was perfect and in the first day most of the work got done. Guys built the playhouse and girls sanded some parts for their new coffee table and of course made a ton of food.

Terve nädalavahetuse veetsime sõprade juures, kes meist paari minutise autosõidu kaugusel elavad. Kuna mõlemad päevad said seal veedetud, lendas nädalavahetus nii kiirelt mööda, et ei saanud arugi. Sõbrad ehitavad oma pisikesele tütrele mängumaja ning vajasid abikäsi. Nii saidki mehed esimesel päeval kõik seinad püsti ja naised lihvisid euroaluseid ja loomulikult tegid suure hunniku süüa.

A low car gathering in front of their house :D / Väikses mõõdus Lowliferi klubi kogunemine maja ees.

On the second day we didn't get there as early as planned since we had some errands to run as well. But when we got there guys finished the roof and we (girls) painted the coffe table parts. It's super hot in their garden on a sunny day so we walked 200m to the beach and enjoyed a nice swim in the sea. The water was really warm and there were quite big waves so we had a ton of fun. So today I just relaxed, couldn't even finish our bedroom wall. When I do I'll show you a picture! What did you do this weekend? How has your summer been so far?

Teisel päeval käisime enne ise Bauhofis jms, seega ei jõudnud nii vara sinna kui oleks tahtnud. Kui aga jõudsime, värvisid naised euroalused üle ning mehed said katusega pea täiesti valmis. Õhtul avastasime kui mõnus on mängumaja terrassil vesipiipu teha ja nautisime mõnusat suveõhtut. Päeval päeisime ka rannas ujumas, mis nende majast 200m kaugusel on. Täna oli meil kodus tõeline lebola - instagramist on näha, kuidas jänku ja kutsu magasid ja ütleme ausalt, ega ma ise palju erksam polnud. Kuidas teie nädalavahetus möödus? Kuidas teie suvi seni on möödunud?

In the past few days I've been really loving the color blue. No idea why, maybe it's just a blue week? (: Anyways here's my face of the day (prepare for some squinting 'cause you know cloudy skies don't always mean you can open your eyes :D) and also my nails.

Viimastel päevadel on mulle sinine värv jälle väga meeldima hakanud. Kohe saate näha kissitavat mind, sest pilvine taevas ei tähenda alati, et silmi saab normaalselt lahti hoida. :D

As you can see there's not much going on on the eyes except for a blue pencil and blue mascara. So in a way it's natural and modest but has a hint of color. Perfect for summer as everyone goes crazy for color.

Silmadel on vaid sinine pliiats ning sinine ripsmetušš. Meik ise on tagasihoidlik, kuid sinine värv annab paraja annuse särtsu.

Products used:

MAC Prep&Prime Skin Base (forgot to include in the picture)

Revlon Colorstay (Golden Beige) and Bourjois Healthy Mix (54) foundations

MAC Studio Sculpt concealer (NC30)

Sleek Blush by 3 in Pumpkin (orange)

ELF Blush (Gotta Glow)

NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder (Taupe/Ash)

Isadora Inline Kajal (56 Blonde)

Make Up Store pencil (Water Spring)

L'Oreal Lumi Magique highlighting pen (light)

Maybelline Colossal Volum' Color Shock mascara (Electric Navy)

Maybelline Color Whisper (210 Oh La Lilac)

And on my nails I have Maybelline Colorama Polka Dots in 198 and Avon On Point Blue from their Speed Dry range.

Küüntel on Maybelline Colorama Polka Dots nr 198 ja Avon Speed Dry toonis On Point Blue.

What's on your nails at the moment?

Mis värvi teie küüned praegu on?

Wow, if you look at the title of this post it's a mouthful. I've never understood why companies feel the need to make product names so long. If I were to add the color name to the end as well it would've made up and entire chapter of a novel :D. Anyways today I want to talk about the new Color Shock range from Maybelline. I got the shade Electric Navy which is a gorgeous electric blue in the tube.

Ma ei mõista, miks peavad tootenimed olema niivõrd pikad? See selleks, täna räägin teile veidi lähemalt sellest sinisest ripsmetuššist, mis eilses postituses figureeris. Minu ripsmetuši toon on Electric Navy, mis on imeilus elektrisinine.

My first thought when I saw it was "Seriously? A colored mascara?". But if you noticed then in my last post I mentioned how much I like it now. Of course I had to try it out and when I noticed how subtle one coat was as it dries a bit darker so I decided to wear it with some kind of eye makeup. Colored mascara to me is something you wear with colorful eye makeup. Or at least with very well chosen shades because for example blue mascara can very easily look just plain tacky. I've been pairing it with blue/purple/green and I think these play out well.

Minu esimene mõte seda nähes oli "Tegelikult ka? Värviline ripsmetušš?". Kingitud hobuse suhu ei vaadata ning mingil määral sai minust ka uudishimu võitu. Kas mulle tõesti võiks see meeldida? See jääb ripsmetele üsna tagasihoidliku sinisena ning kuivab tumedamaks, kui harja pealt esialgu paistab. Olen seda kandnud sinise, rohelise ja lillaka silmameigiga ja kõigi nendega sobib see ideaalselt. Pealegi, suvel on ju kõik värvide järele hullud (:

In the tube it's probably a bit scary but when you look at the picture below you see it dries a bit darker. Every coat you add is a bit brighter. You can even see that the left side eye's lashes have like a slightly noticeable blue glow. And that is the effect I like about it. It's not "in your face" blue but at certain angles it plays with the light so amazingly. And by the way, you know how I almost never apply mascara to my bottom lashes? Wellll... this blue baby makes me do it because I feel like it completes the look this way. Formula wise it acts just like the regular Colossal Volum' - doesn't flake or smudge, gives volume and looks awesome.

Allolevalt pildilt näetegi, kuidas tušš tegelikult ripsmetel veidi tumedamaks kuivab. Iga järgmise kihiga jäävad ripsmed veidi erksamad. Vasakpoolse silma ripsmetel on lausa selline kerge sinakas kuma, mis ongi just see, mida selle ripsmetuši puhul hindan. See ei ole liialt erk, aga mingi nurga all mängib valgusega imeilusalt. Nüüdseks te ilmselt juba teate, et oma alumisi ripsmeid värvin haruharva. No selle ripsmetuššiga ei saa neid värvimata jätta! (; Koostiselt on nagu tavaline Colossal Volum' - ei pudene ega määri, annab volüümi ning näeb lihtsalt hea välja.

Don't mind that the picture is taken at a kind of weird angle so the lashes on the right side eye look...just weird.. :D

I have learned to love the colored mascaras, never would've believed that. As far as I know there is a teal and a purple in the color range as well. Which color would you pick? I really want to try the purple one as well! What's your opinion on colored mascara?

Olen õppinud nüüd jälle värvilisi ripsmetuššé hindama, seda poleks tõesti uskunud. Minu jaoks on need enamasti lihstalt nii maitsetud paistnud. Eriti, kui kanda neid kas ilma mingi silmameigita või millegi pruunikaga. Või on asi lihtsalt minus. Nii palju kui tean, on värvidest valikus veel heledam sinakas-roheline ning lilla. Millise värvi teie valiksite? Kuidas teie üldse värvilistesse ripsmetuššidesse suhtute?
