Whoopwhoop kompisar!

Eftersom WOW inte bara Ă€r en festival fylld av grym musik utan Ă€ven ett festival-stil-inspirations-mecka har jag redan börjat spĂ„na lite pĂ„ olika looks. I frisyr-vĂ€g Ă€r lösa flĂ€tor en riktigt hit, knĂ€ppte dessa bilder imorse dĂ„ jag testade göra en variant med flera smĂ„ tunna 90’s-inspirerade flĂ€tor som nĂ€stan smĂ€lter in lite i hĂ„ret pĂ„ ett schysst sĂ€tt. Mitt problem Ă€r dock alltid att flĂ€torna har en tendens att glida isĂ€r under dagens gĂ„ng, speciellt pĂ„ en festival dĂ€r man gĂ€rna hoppar runt och dansar. Well, denna gĂ„ng kommer det inte vara nĂ„gra problem! Jag har nĂ€mligen fĂ„tt testa got2b’s “made for mess”-kollektion, och Ă€lskar den. De gör att hĂ„ret blir strĂ€vt och lĂ€ttarbetat utan att ge en för frizzig look eller att göra frisyren för stel. Big like!

Okej, det var allt för denna gÄng! Jag Äterkommer med fler roliga frisyrtips dÄ och dÄ de kommande mÄnaderna. Jag hoppas att ni alla deltar i tÀvlingen sÄ att jag fÄr en chans att hÀnga med er i Augusti! Whoop!

Since WOW isn’t just a festival filled with great music but also a mecca for festival fashion lovers, I’ve already begun to brainstorm some different looks. In hair-way, loose braids is really hot at the moment. These pics are from when I tried a style with very thin loose 90’s inspired braids that almost melts into the hair in a discrete but cool way. Usually I have problem with getting the braids to remain throughout the day, especially at a festival where you just want to jump around and dance. Well, this time this won’t be a problem! I have been using got2b’s “Made for mess” collection, and I’m completely in love with it. The products makes the hair “sticky” and easy to work with without making it look frizzy or making it stiff. Big like!

Okay, that’s it for this time! I’ll get back with more fun hairstyle tips now and then in the coming months. I hope y’all will participate in the raffle so that I get a chance to hang out with you in August! Whoop!

Fashion Week day two is here, which also happens to be the week’s most important day for me. Today it’s time for the Stylight Awards Gala, which I, as you know, is nominated in. Before it’s time to enter the red carpet (haha), I have the pleasure to get styled at a salon, so right now I’m looking at some inspiration to bring to the stylists.

1. Bright red eyeshadow. I really love this shade! Especially with nude lips. 2. 100% natural eyes. 3. Heavy black with focus on the lover lashes.

MOIST AND SHINE

Yo kompisar! I samarbete med Wella har jag fÄtt uppdraget att recensera deras nya oil reflections collection. NÄgot som passar mig utmÀrkt dÄ mitt hÄr definitivt Àr i behov av att Äterfuktas efter alla blekningar och silverschampo-behandlingar jag utsatt det för det senaste Äret.
Denna serie har tagits fram som en förlÀngning av Wellas Luxe Oil, som ni sedan tidigare vet att jag Àr ett fan av. Produkterna innehÄller till exempel macadamia-olja, avocado-olja och extrakt frÄn vitt te. Jag har anvÀnt detta kit i drygt en vecka och so far Àr jag supernöjd, lÀmnade hÄrinpackningen i hÄret i ett par timmar igÄrkvÀll och vaknade upp med superglansigt hÄr idag. Det bÀsta med dessa produkter Àr att de Àr sÄ pass billiga att det inte behöver vara en sÄ stor investering att köpa hem dem. Vanligtvis tycker jag att bra fuktighetsgivande hÄrprodukter kan dra ivÀg rejÀlt pris-mÀssigt. Har ni frÄgor Àr det bara att hojta!
HÄR kan ni lĂ€sa mer om produkterna, samt lokalisera köpstĂ€llen. PUSS!

Yo guys! In collaboration with Wella I have been asked to review their new oil reflections collection. Of course I said yes- that suits me perfectly as my hair definitely is thirsting for moisture and shine after all the bleaching and silver shampoo treatments I exposed it for the past year.
This series has been developed as an extension of the Wella Luxe Oil, as you already know I’m a big fan of (remember?). The products contain a lot of nice stuff; everything from macadamia oil and avocado oil to extracts of white tea. I’ve used this kit in just over a week now and so far I am super happy with it, I left the hair mask in the hair for a few hours last night and woke up with super shiny hair today. The best thing about these products is that they are so affordable that it’s not really an investment to buy them, still they have that special saloon feeling. I usually find that good moisturizing haircare products are pretty overpriced, so these ones are a great option.

Dress and shoes- Lacoste, Fragrance- NATURAL L. 12. 12

Det Ă€r dags för mitt sista inlĂ€gg i samarbete med Lacoste fragances. Eftersom jag parades ihop med doften “NATURAL”, vilket verkligen Ă€r nĂ„got jag vill och kan identifiera mig med, handlar detta inlĂ€gg om min syn pĂ„ en naturlig livsstil. Under sommardagarna i Berlin för ett Ă„r sedan dĂ„ jag hĂ€ngde med lacoste-teamet sĂ„ intervjuade de mig under arbetets gĂ„ng. Nu i efterhand har jag fĂ„tt ta del av svaren, sĂ„ jag tĂ€nker att jag helt enkelt delar dem med er:

What does a NATURAL lifestyle mean to you?

A natural life means being close to the nature, keeping your feet on the ground. It means listening to your body and your natural needs and trying to not get obsessed with material things.

How do you describe natural Beauty?
Natural beauty is a result of a natural lifestyle. When you’re able to let go of social media’s illusions of “perfect looks” and you can focus on being grateful for everything your body gives you just by being healthy.

What are you three tips for getting in a NATURAL mood?

– Hang out with animals. There’s no better way to get down on earth.
– Work out. There’s something very “back to basic” animalistic with letting your body work and pushing your limits.
– Take a walk in the forest and smell all the amazing fragrances, like pine wood, moss and forest flowers.

What are your tips for living a NATURAL lifestyle?
Try to live in the moment as much as possible, make a habit of taking little pauses un life where you just shut off all thoughts about work, relationships, future and focus on your mind and your body.

It’s time for my last post in collaboration with Lacoste fragances. Since I was paired with the fragrance “NATURAL”, which really is something I want and can relate myself to, this post about my thoughts on a natural lifestyle.
During the summer days in Berlin a year ago when I was hanging out with the Lacoste team, they interviewed me during the work. A few weeks ago they actually sent me the answers, so I decided to share some of them with you (above) in this post. What are your thoughts on a natural lifestyle?

John Frieda Lightening shampoo, Lightening Conditioner and Lightening treatment

NÀr jag var pÄ denna plÄtning för nÄgra veckor sedan snackade jag lite med hÄrstylisten Andreas frÄn John Frieda om dessa produkter. NÄgon vecka fick jag tag i ett par flaskor att prova hemma, och jag mÄste sÀga att jag Àr mycket nöjd sÄhÀr lÄngt! Jag Àr ju lite smÄtt besatt av att bleka bort alla pigment ur mitt hÄr, men efter att ha rÄdgjort med x antal frisörer har jag sakta börjat inse att bleka hÄret mer vore en dum idé. Dessa produkter ska dÀremot ljusa upp strÄna pÄ ett mer skonsamt sÀtt- utan peroxider. Dessutom kostar dessa tuber knappt 12 euros, alltsÄ en brÄkdel av vad ett frisörbesök skulle gÄ pÄ- sÄ varför inte? Jag har anvÀnt dem i tvÄ veckor och tycker mig ana en skillnad redan nu, blir spÀnnande att se vad framtiden har att komma med! Puss!

When I was at this photo shoot a few weeks ago I talked a little with the hair stylist Andreas Wild from John Frieda about these products. A week later I got hold of a few bottles to try at home, and I must say I’m very pleased so far! I’m a little bit obsessed with reducing the pigments of my hair, but after consulting with x number of hairdressers I’ve slowly started to realize that bleaching the hair more would be a bad idea. The Highlight Activating Shampoo and Conditioner from John Frieda will however make your blonde color shine brighter in a gentle way, without peroxides. I’m also especially a fan of the in-shower lightening treatment. You use it like a normal hair mask, and the treatment just takes 5 minutes. In addition, these fellas cost just under 12 euros, a fraction of what a hairdresser visit would cost, so why not? I’ve used them for two weeks and think I sense a difference already, I’m excited to see what the future has to bring. Kiss!
