New bag hurts shoulder!

Couple of days ago I bought Jaeger tote bag that I wanted for a long time. I was so happy, but... it hurts my shoulder! More interestingly I have in there the same amount of stuff I used to carry in my old purse. I guess it is because new bag handles are too thin and have much more pressure on my shoulder or so. 

I think this bag is the same shape as Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote bag.

Does anyone ever had this problem and if so maybe you know whether there are any handle protectors I can buy for it or something like that?

Best before.

To be honest with you, I didn't know that...

life time for a:

Mascara-3-6 month 
(which I never do; can have 
mascara until it dries out) 
but actually I have read 
recently that mascara is 
number one for bacteria 
development which could 
cause eye infection.  
It really freaked me out 
that's why I have thrown 
away my Chanel mascara 
ahhhh still sad about it!


Lipstick- 1-2 years ( which I kind of do, but sometimes change it when it is getting to smell like old oil, I really can't wear lipsticks with annoying smell, for example I love colours of Este Louder lipsticks but just can't handle their smell. The same is with Este Lauder powders, strange... 

Lipgloss- 2 month after opening (My ends up in 6 month I suppose)
Eyeshadows- 3 years, I have some of mine for 5 years. (It never happend to me that eyeshadow went bad or  rancid)


Rouge/powder- 2 years.(Never happened to me that powder went bad. Have mine for 6 years)

Foundation- 1 year of waterbased. 

2 year if oilbased.

(Never vitneses foundation gone bad, 

but actually I usually 

finish this product in a year)

Eye pencil/lippnecil- 2 years. 

(Can't really say, 

I have mine up to 

3 years, still ok)

Skincream- 1-2 years. 

Look at PAO or best before. 

(YESSS creams do get bad and can

 cause irritation on the skin)

Parfumes 1-3 years.( YESSSSSS, they get bad. Smell changes after 2 

years to a heavy alcoholic smell)

Strawberry time!

Hello everyone!!!I just came back from work and decided to refresh my face with my favourite strawberry mask. As some of you might know I've been on strawberry farm last weekend. I think it is such a good thing to pick seasonal berries yourself if you have an opportunity. They are more fresh than in grocery store and not filled with some sort of extra preservatives for long term storage.

Sooooo, just want to show you some tips and what I'm using strawberries for, some of them you might know. 


1.
Strawberry teeth whitening.
Yes, strawberry does it. The trick is that fruit acids that are in strawberries can lighten teeth. The main thing is to remember that you have to be careful when doing that, because these acids at the same time dissolve soft enamel surface and could damage it. For example, my sister can't eat strawberries since childhood because her teeth are too sensitive. 

The way I do (only once or twice a year), I just put mush strawberries on my teeth and leave it for 3-5 mins and then properly brush teeth. 

When enamel is brilliantly white it's so great to highlight it with red lipstick. My favourite one is Shiseido Red Lux which is more like a dark cherry colour, but still it looks good. 


2.
Strawberry Mask.
I take some amount of pure organic yogurt and 3 or 4 mashed strawberries and put on the face for 10-15 mins. Again fruit acids make skin tome more even and make freckles disappear if there are any. 

I use Glenisk Greek Style Yogurt that you can buy in Dunnes Stores. 

I just like simple recipes that you don't have to spend much time on. =))

Strawberry Surprise!

I am in love with smoothie that you can buy in Dundrum Shopping Centre

"Strawberry surprise". 

I had more 

than 10 tries at home 

until I have got exact the 

same taste, so lemme 

share it with you. 

What you need is:

- 6 or 7 strawberries 

- 0.5 cup of orange juice

- 1 scoop of vanilla ice-cream or frozen yogurt

- 1 tbs of liquid organic honey

Just put everything into blender and obviously haha blend =)))Enjoy!!!

Wedding preparations.

I hope that this post would be useful for some brides to be and for someone who is planning to have wedding in Ireland. 

It was romantic and simple as I have always dreamed of. I have got married in quite young age which is unusual in here and me and my fiance decided to take all wedding expenses on ourselves.

The Look

------------

Lemme show you my detailed wedding look first and then I will move on to the full process of our wedding preparations. 

My major weakness is shoes so guess how picky I was this time. I don't know why but I had a creasy idea to have pink wedding shoes!

My perfect choice would have been Christian Louboutin Bow Satin Dorsay shoes and I probably would have bought it if we've had Louboutin boutique in Dublin by that time. 

I have got Jitterbug pink Kurt Geiger instead but in the end I didn't like the way they were going along with my dress and I have got Stuart Weitzman nude pumps with swan fur instead. Despite that I love my pink shoes since then. 

❤ Dress, dress, dress!!!❤

What to say? When I was picking up my dress I was inspired by Vera Wang summer 2010 collection and some vision in my head. Dress was made by my mum, as she is a designer. It was shiny silk dress with Swarovski crystals on the top and on the lace. I think it is better to show then to describe it in words.

                           ❤ And Hair ❤

My bouquet was made by the picture I have found, it turned to be exactly the same, even better I suppose. I just thought that cymbidium orchids are perfect by itself as well as pink roses, but together they create a perfect story. I also had the same orchid in my hair.

       The Place 

       -----

We've got married in Malahide, Co. Dublin in October 2010. We went to Malahide Castle first and with a permission from city council we had a walk in the gardens beside the castle and made some pictures.

After the walk we went to our reception place which was 10 mins drive from the castle. It was The Grand hotel situated on the seafront. We had two rooms rent, one was a vintage style rest room with comfy sofas and a bar (called Griffon's Lounch) and the second one was sunny dinning room with balcony and big windows with the sea view. 

In the end of our evening we had Irish dancing band which made all guests dance together, that was really fun!!!

I was quite nervous about making this post, but I hope you liked it. =)
