Summer has come and passed, the fall is here with new trends in make up!

Let’s start with eyes!

1. Purple is a top color for fall in makeup. It is seen in many collections and it looks really good on all skin types and tones. I am definitely going for it. Purple will most likely be called the top trend in makeup for Fall 2008/Winter 2009 season. (more…)

Jeans! Hottest trends for Fall 2008/Winter 2009!

Let’s face it, no matter how we love skirts, we still wear pants and jeans almost everyday. They are simply more practical and comfortable, especially for fall/winter season. As a jeans-obsessed model, I have a full jean trends and fashion ideas report for Fall 2008/Winter 2009. This fall will be fcuking HOT! I promise! Get excited!!!

1. Probably the trendiest denim style for fall, wide leg jeans are a fresh change from last year’s skinny jean obsession. Wide leg jeans and pants will rule for Fall and Winter 2008-2009. (more…)

Make up great for… TRASH!

When your job is modeling you get used to switch places, countries and cities. Every now and then you know its about time to pack your countless suitcases and take off wherever your agency sends you. Asia, Europe, US—you don’t stay too long in one place. You haven’t heard from me for a while because I was in the process of moving my ass over the pond : )

I love moving to a new place, what I don’t like is packing. My bags and suitcases weight 4 times more than me… Although, there is a good thing about moving away—it makes you throw away everything you don’t really need or use. No matter how much I love beauty products I have to admit some of my buys are good only for a trash bin. While I was packing my bags I had to go through all my drawers and stashes and see what makeup and beauty products I am not taking with me. I was surprised how many products were not good for anything and how many bottles and tubes went straight to the trash!

Here is my list of beauty products and make up I personally threw away, even though they were almost full and quite costly. So call this list: “Worst beauty products ever”, “Awful make up”, or “Make up products that suck” if you want to : ) (more…)

Summer Body!

When I was younger I thought my skin looks great when I get a bronze tan after hanging out in the sunlight all day long. Now I know how harmful it is for the skin, especially the sensitive skin on the face. I don’t have enough fingers on my body to count all the tries I took to find a suitable alternative. I am quite scared of self-tanners, as turning up on the shoot looking stripped and orange has become my biggest nightmare. As you probably have guessed already I went for gradual tanning moisturizing lotions. And I probably have to go and buy myself an expert’s degree to sound more official here:) But seriously, I literally tried every single gradual self-tanner on the market.

Truth about Garnier Summer Body! “Summer body” sounds fantastic, right? That’s what I thought. (more…)

Hot and Joyful Summer Fragrance

I have just found the perfect scent for the summer. Now I know for sure that my summer will smell like a flight. Mexx Fly High came out last summer, but I didn’t come across it till now. This is the fragrance for the people with certain philosophy, for those who live for emotions, feelings, discoveries, speed, happiness… For those, whose crazy summer adventures catch everybody’s attention and make people want to do something like that at least once in their lives.

Passion for Sunglasses

Yep, maybe this is a little off topic. But I wanted to share with you something I was fantasizing about. Every time of the year when I get waken up by the sun before my alarm clock goes on I realize how beautiful life is and how bad I want a pair of new sunglasses.
So, here is something I thought you would enjoy. These are Givenchy hottest sunglasses–a symbol of French elegance and intriguing beauty. (more…)

…Pubic Hair Design /Bikini line hair removal/

Why not? It could be a part of your lifestyle or just a playful mood at the moment, or maybe a wish to surprise your boyfriend. Whatever it is, I strongly believe that pubic hair design could be just another way to express yourself. Just watch out, so that your wild imagination didn’t scary off somebody who is less wild and creative (if you are planning to share it with anybody, anyway;)) (more…)

…Waxing! /Bikini line hair removal/

me — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 00:55:41 +0000

Here we go, girls! After I have tried depilatory creams, epilators and while I was still getting cuts from a razor I felt I needed to accumulate all my confidence and courage for trying out waxing. I really wanted to secure my place in hairfree heaven! All the comments I got on this idea were pretty much the same: “get prepared for THE PAIN!” Very encouraging, huh?!

We were about to go to this great photo shoot that took place in an exotic resort in the Indian Ocean. The trip would last for almost a week and we were scheduled for a swimsuit shoots in different locations everyday. I knew that if I will be shaving every single day my bikini area would look like a disaster because of the irritation and bumps that I don’t really want to get photographed. So, it looked like I didn’t really have a choice. (more…)

…Epilators! /Bikini line hair removal/

What exactly is the difference between depilation and epilation? Epilating leaves us without any hair on the skin’s surface for much longer, as when we epilate we remove our hair with follicles. I was so tired of shaving every single day that I finally decided I needed to look further. This time I figured I won’t put poor Linda at risk (you can read about our depilation cream experience) and try out something that would keep me hairless for longer by myself. As my holiday departure day was approaching, I had to make up my mind. When I was leaving the store with my new Braun Silk Epil epilator in a bag I thought my problem was solved. (more…)

…Depilatory Creams and Lotions /Bikini line hair removal/

After I found out that a razor leaves my skin in the condition I don’t want anybody to see. I was out looking for other options. Let me tell you I wasn’t alone in this search. My best friend Linda and me just turned 15 and we felt like we needed to be the sexiest girls out there. We were trying really hard. As Linda was cutting herself every time she took a razor in her hands, she joined me on this trip at the store. We decided to do a little at home hair care, but down there. So, we spent a fortune on different depilating products to run a test. (more…)
