Succesful adulting

 

 

The title.
I mean, everyone is there like having a balanced life and I'm here like eh what,
all that escapism (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

So, to celebrate, I bought myself some stickers:

 

I love stickers♥ these were so cute I couldn't resist.

8 sheets of cuteness! I just don't know how to use these...

~☆~

One recent and one older outfit, both lazy:

I'm wearing mainly my healthcare uniform in school and there haven't been any freetime activities, so I haven't chance to dress nicely... -__-

~☆~
 

I have ruined my life completely now.
 

 I started playing Touken Ranbu.
You know, that browser game with handsome sword boys. I fell in love with characters at first sight, so I just HAD to start playing the game. I certainly am a sucker for cute anime boys....

It could be alright if I was playing just one game, but I'm also playing Love Live!.

It's a rhythm action game. I watched the Love Live! anime last summer,
but I have been playing the game only since last November.

 

Events are killing me, I mean, there is a chance to get my favourite girl Nozomi, but it really takes effort to get her... When there was Nico's event I played like crazy but still didn't get a doctor Nico card. ;__; But I will fight hard for bunny Nozomi♥


Call me a trash if you want, I'm okay with that

~☆~

I have been trying to eat more like vegan.
I eat mostly lacto-ovo-vegetarian food (fish and chicken seldom, only when I visit my parents), but I want to get rid of dairy and eggs... I just need more good and easy recipes.

Udon with roasted vegetables and mushrooms

Today we made some (late) laskiaispulla

(traditional finnish buns with jam and cream). 

 

~☆~

Photo-shooting is always fun but such a hassle.
 

 

bye!★

Up Down, To and Fro

Hello~

 

It's autumn all of sudden!
I have been too busy with school and haven't really been able to enjoy it.

One night I went for a walk and walked until my legs were killing me...

it was a pretty night, so it was worth it.

~☆~

 

I want to share these two products: 



Avène Cleanance Lotion Toner & Eucerin DermoPurifier Hydrating Care

I have been using these for a few months and I'm so sold!

 

Avène Lotion Toner is a biphasic toner, it shows poorly in pictures, because bottle got shaken. Let to settle down, the two phases, the liquid one above and powdery white sediment in the bottom can be seen. Before using, remember to shake the bottle to mix the two phases!
This toner is for oily, blemish-prone skin (like mine), and it promises to be purifying and matifying, plus hypoallergenic and non comedogene. It contains "absorbing powders" (silica?) to regulate excess production of oil. 
 

And this stuff is amazing. I use this twice a day. If I have an arising pimple, I just sweep it with this. It will calm down and never show signs of worsening. I sweep my back too with this, it really helps and I don't have to do anything else. The scent is mild and pleasant, after using this skin feels clean and less oily. The breakouts have decreased too! 

I really can't come up with cons.
For some reason I can't find the exact product in Finnish pharmacy sites anymore, but there is a new product, Cleanance MAT Mattifying Lotion, which contains mainly the same ingredients.

And to the another product.
I have tried a few products from Eucerin and their DermoPurifier line. The toner is quite good too, and I'm currently using the cleanser of the line.
The DermoPurifier Hydrating Care is for oily, blemish-prone skin. This emulsion promises to mattify and visibly refine the skin’s appearance with regular use. It contains soothing Licorice extract, antibacterial Decandiol and sebum-regulating Carnitine.

I use this daily as make-up base. I clearly can see how redness, oiliness, irritation and pimples have decreased. The moisturizing properties aren't that amazing, but good still. The smell is little funny, not bad nevertheless since it's mild and will fade away.
There is also a version of this with SPF30. The con is the price, it's nearly 20 euros for the tiny bottle. But on the other hand, product is long lasting and really worth of the price!

 

I bought both at local pharmacy.
Even though I love the products, I'm not saying that my skin problems are completely cured now. Not at all, since my skin is still oily etc. Anyway, these have been such saviors for my skin.
It's much more clean, less red and less oily. Highly recommending these!
I don't think anyone deserves bad skin!
except for my worst enemies muahahaha

~☆~

My mirror is dusty and I had two good hair days:

I thought that since school was starting I would have to have hygienic hands again in upcoming practical training. So I waited 1,5 months, for nothing, until I dared to do my nail.
What a waste of time.ヾ(｀ε´)ﾉ

 

 

Next time I will be posting will probably be after my Japan trip.

It will maybe take some time because of the exams I have, but I will try to post about it as soon as possible. 

Eek I can't wait, it's only 15 days!!!
I'm little nervous because I haven't traveled that much, but I hope everything goes well~

 

 

Ps. I'm looking for new blogs to read!
Unfortunately so many blogs I have been following have became inactive....

Any recommendations? Drop a comment!

Kids Who Wanted To Fly In The Sky

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

 

Hello~

First things first:

Those who follow me in Instagram might already know
about how one of my biggest dreams is finally coming true;
 

I'm going to Japan!!!

 

It's only about 40 days left until trip!! I'm so excited!!!!
I have so much plans, but because the time is limited, I will be content with implementing only a tiny portion of them. I won't see the cherry blossoms but maybe some beautiful fall colors.
I just simply can't wait!!!
The trip is between my exams but really, who cares about exams, yolo!!

Once again, I bought some skin care stuff...

Mizon Snail Repair Intensive Ampoule - with the package

 
Mizon Snail Repair Intensive Ampoule and yeah, it contains snail mucus, 80% of the ampoule is snail secretion filtrate, which is quite awesome. I never thought that I would buy products with snail mucus, but well, good reviews led me again...
I have suffered from acne for a long time. Currently my skin condition is better than ever, but redness and vestiges have remained. I bought this to help my skin to regenerate. This also claims to be moisturizing, nutritious and to improve the elasticity of skin.
 

Mizon Snail Recovery Gel 

I bought Mizon Snail recovery Gel to complement the routine with the Mizon Ampoule. The snail line of Mizon contains six different products from cream to bb cream. I picked these two because of the best reviews.

Both products have no special smell - so you don't have to be afraid of "snail smell". :D Both ampoule and gel absorb very well and won't leave your face unpleasantly sticky, just a bit.

So far I haven't noticed any miraculous changes, since I have been using this only a few days. But I think my skin feels more hydrated and maybe looks more even, nevertheless. 
 

And the samples I received, haven't tried them yet.

 

I have been trying to look for a good makeup remover for my waterproof mascara. Only by reading reviews I wasn't sure what would really be good; I didn't want to waste money on bad stuff while trying to find a both gentle and effective makeup remover. It's important to not to scrub your thin and delicate eye skin, so a gentle remover would be a must. This far I have been using mostly Eucerin Dermatoclean Gentle Cleansing Milk.

 

Searching for makeup removers, I came across the idea of removing makeup with oil - baby oil, olive oil, almond oil etc etc! So I went to a grocery store and grabbed a jar of coconut oil:

 

 

The oil has really mild smell. I put a little amount of oil in two wet cotton pads, placed them on my eyes, let it be for a while and it clean my mascara up with little effort. Only a little amount is needed to remove the mascara, so the jar will last long. I haven't tried to remove my entire makeup with coconut oil, because I'm afraid of my pores getting clogged... By the way, mascara I'm using is False Lash Effect waterproof By MaxFactor.

According to various sources on internet, coconut oil is a beauty multitasker. In addition to makeup removing, you can use it as eye cream, body moisturizer, hair treatment, teeth whitener and so forth. It's also antibacterial, anti-aging and what's best: all natural.

I tried to use it to calm my scalp (I don't know what's wrong with it, my scalp is very sensitive and it's itchy and gets oily easily... :/ gotta change my shampoo maybe ), and it helped a little. At the same time I applied it on my hair and left it on for a couple of hours, then washed it away. It made my hair a bit glossier. 
Coconut oil is very good body moisturizer, but after applying, skin is oily for a long time...
I tried to whiten my teeth with it but couldn't keep it in my mouth because I started to sneeze. :D It also felt somehow uncomfortable?
I personally would use coconut oil in cooking, because even though it's vegetable oil it contains satured fat, which will clog your arteries - so, don't eat it!!

 

 I love coconut flavor by the way♥

Let's continue:

Etude House Stay Up Foundation Ivory

 

My first foundation ever, I have came this far only using bb creams! It's Etude House Stay Up Foundation, the Ivory option. The bottle was surprisingly small, only 25g. The color was perfect (pale with yellow undertones), SPF of 30 is nice and cover was ok. The finish was smooth and perfect at first, but started to look bad after a couple of hours, this didn't stay on my face very well -___- I think I still can use this, but since I'm not a fan, I won't repurchase.

Some recent outfits:

 

By the way, I made some changes in my blog - header, background, layout and stuff.
What do you think?
Even though I was fond of my earlier header, I felt that it was time to change it. My profile pic was also like 6 years old. :'''D
 

What else?

MUSTIKOITA! I really like picking berries♥

 



This was so interesting but I couldn't get in, since the hut was related to a guest I hadn't started.... Soooo disappointing!

 

Online bookstore thought that it's not good for me to read manga,

so they sent me books about Swedish culture and war instead.

 

 

Oh and Dragon Ball is life.

bye!★
