pixi MatteLustre & Shea Butter – Any excuse

This blog post contains PR-Samples and affiliate links. Please see disclaimer. I don´t need more lipsticks. I DON´T need more lipsticks. I don´t need MORE lipsticks. I don´t need… Oh shut up. Ladies and gentlemen (are there any here?) let me present you with the latest six (ha!) additions to my lipstick stash! To be fair, I didn´t purchase them myself. They were sent to me, carefully wrapped, in the lovely pixi-green box that brightens my day whenever it appears on my doorstep. Is this an excuse? No.    …

Sephora Rouge Lipstick Cream & Shine –

I keep telling Mr. Loca that a girl needs to have options. Which is why, despite the fact that I own more lipsticks that I could possibly use in a life span, I keep adding to my collection. That is, of course, preposterous, if I keep doing what I am doing at the moment. Because whenever I am offered options, I choose the same colors over and over again. Which is okay, because they suit me. And which is not okay, because I am officially stuck in a makeup rut…

Bite Beauty Amuse Bouche – On battling a dragon

I recently had to battle a dragon in order to free my princess. Now, not literally a dragon and not really a princess, but it sure felt similar. Or at least how I would imagine it to feel, as dragons are rare these days.     I had to face two middle aged men in order to free some Sephora goodies from customs. They were held captive because no invoice was attached, as I had won them in a giveaway. The battle went back and forth, me trying to explain…

Astor Perfect Stay Fabulous lipsticks and giveaway

I have said it several times before: Red lipsticks are my weakness, and I really don’t need any more of them. But lucky for me, no one seems to pay any attention to these claims, least of all myself, so I was very excited when a package with the new Astor lipstick range called “Perfect Stay Fabulous” arrived at my doorstep.   As you can see in the video, it is a lovely selection of reds with different undertones, and I had a hard time deciding which ones would find…

Colors of autumn – My top three nail polish and lipstick picks

Being a self-proclaimed summer-lover I often forget how much I love to see the seasons changing. Granted, I could do without the rain and the dull, grey days, but at least for a short time we were blessed with sun and blue skies. Until the morning I sat down to write this post actually. That day it started raining and hasn’t stopped since. Colors of fall But I digress. The colorful leafs against the blue skies, the golden light from the evening sun, the grapes and the apples, all that…

Generous Gifts – Lipstick Queen Lipstick in “Saint Coral”

Finding some one that shares your passion for something makes life so much more enjoyable, don’t you think? And while I am lucky to have a husband sharing my love for hiking and lots of other stuff, for some very strange reason he just isn’t as much into makeup as I am. Me going on and on about skin tones, lipstick finishes and eyeshadow fallout isn’t his idea of a fun conversation, so I started this blog (among other reasons) to connect with likeminded people, as they are rare among…

Cheating yourself – Revlon Lipsticks

Grabbing a cup of tea and catching up on my bloglovin roll is my preferred way to unwind after a day of work. I love reading about new products, and if I wouldn´t impose a strict: “No buying while reading”-rule, I would end up with a fair amount of them ordered every night. A few weeks ago, Jaa from “HelloJaa” (If you don’t follow her already, go check her out. Her pictures are art!) shared her Wishlist for March 2015. In the comments we got chatting, and I proudly told about my…
