I'm continuing to embrace my natural waves and find the best way to style it!🤗 I've seen many videos where a special brush from #denman has been used to define the curls more. Did I buy one? Yes, of course! 🤩 In general, I like it when I get wider strands (”clumps” in English) rather than many thin ones, but many hairs seem to get it even though it's narrow between the bristles in the brush, so I'm testing! There are many techniques for this, and I've only half-heartedly tried to brush through strand by strand (wet) and shake them a bit so they grab onto each other. Before that, I applied all products except the oil. I applied the oil after I scrunched the curls/waves and blow-dried the hair completely dry with a diffuser. I take the oil in my hands when I scrunch out the hard curls so they get a bit of moisture and bounce. I think the hair turned out nice, even though I still prefer wider strands and miss my best mousse (Bed head Tigi Foxy Curls). Next time, I will try to twist the brush a bit and see if it creates more “spiral-like” strands. Does anyone have tips for a simple app where I can cut together clips so I can show how I do it? #Loreal MetalDX products I'm testing for Lyko now, and I think they are TOP NOTCH so far! #livingproof

My hair is REALLY looking forward to trying the Metal DX series from L’Oreal! 🤩 I have a shower where the water leaves red deposits, so you understand that the hair attracts some too. Time to test it out! #LOREAL #LYKOINFLUTESTER

I was recommended these products by a friend, and I never thought these hair products would make such a big difference for my long, lifeless hair. I've always had coarse and very tangled hair until I used these products! I wash with pre-shampoo once a week. The shampoo is magical! I love the scents and how little product you need despite my long hair. The conditioner is a bit of a disappointment as I don't think it does much. That's why I mix the conditioner with L'Oréal's other series "glycolic gloss" to get a good result, The leave-in serum is a must! My hair smells so good after I've used the serum! But don't use too much as the hair can easily become greasy. #loreal #bondrepair #hairroutine #hair #glycolicgloss #longhair

I had the honor of winning a competition here on Lyko: a primer from E.L.F power grip This primer is a primer I really recommend! The makeup holds, it gives glow and is not so expensive! A 10/10. Sometimes I can feel that some primers are way too expensive and give the same effect as a cheap one. While other cheap primers are cheap for a reason, this primer is so worth the price! I think it holds ALMOST all day, I work at a preschool and feel that sometimes I get splotchy after almost the whole day has gone by. Therefore, I still think this one holds almost all day. I use this primer together with setting spray from the same series. I’m a bit cautious with the setting spray because I feel the makeup moves and it’s easy to get splotchy if I have too much setting spray. This setting spray is "dewy" and makes my makeup look fresh. A little goes a long way, so the makeup lasts longer :) #elf #lyko #loreal #fitme #settingspray #primer #lykotävling

Hey and welcome to "Therese mixes colors again"... 😄😅 I often mix different shades of e.g. Maria Nila Colour Refresh or different shades of Revlon's color treatments. The purpose has almost always (except when I tone down Pink Pop with a little brown) been to achieve cool tones without becoming green-haired 😄 Since I am light blonde, I have almost no red/warm pigments in my hair, and there is a risk that a shade that is COLD in ITSELF can make the hair grayish and that the color becomes TOO cold and in the worst case greenish. In other words; I mix in a shade that has red/warm tones with a cool, brown shade (and possibly a little treatment) to balance out the absence of red pigment but only so it doesn't turn green. Makes sense? I've gotten a bit tired of putting in new treatment every other time I wash my hair, so now I wanted to tone it properly. I've read and seen from others that shade 700 is SIGNIFICANTLY cooler than on the packaging, so I have been skeptical about it, but now I also bought Blonde Caramel to hope to balance it. If it's the same brand and product, it should be possible to mix. I took all of 700 and mixed it with half of Caramel Blonde, and you can see the starting state of my hair color in my latest looks on my profile. The result was good! No green, but considering how cool the shade can be, I can only agree that 700 IS very cool. I don't want to know how it would have turned out without Caramel Blonde 😬 Now let's see how it holds and behaves going forward 😁 #loreal #casting #toning

There are maaaany different lenses to pimp up your costume with. I’ve previously had a pair that are completely red, with a hole for the pupil, and they are cool but look pretty hysterical. My tip, if you want a pair with color but that doesn’t look REALLY that crazy, is to look for a pair with dark edges and a little pattern, like the ones I have on here. It becomes more toned down but still with color. There’s a bit of charm in noticing first up close that “wait, there’s something off about those eyes.” Besides red, I’ve seen yellow and green. Now the lenses weren’t bought here, but since they are part of my previously published Halloween makeup, I realized I forgot to add this here 🤗 They were bought at a random costume store for about 149:- If you want to know more about the makeup, the full description is in my profile, and I’ll link those who are in the picture here too! 🎃 #elf #nyx #loreal #bbia #urbandecay

Me in the middle of October: “I’m not going to engage that much in Halloween this year” Also me, but on Halloween: …👻😅 This year it turned into some kind of medusa/snake hybrid, and it was definitely great to nerd out on things for it too! 😁 FACE I started by applying eyeshadow primer #urbandecay on the areas I wanted to paint “scales.” Then I took a pair of fishnet tights and pulled them over my head and dabbed eyeshadow on the areas I wanted scales on. I was lucky to find the last green palette from #elf (one shadow was broken so that was probably the reason it was left) and it was PERFECT for this. After I took off the tights, I powdered with #nyx HD powder, which goes on translucent, and then settingspray #urbandecay. Then I went in with #isadora matte primer and #lumene blur foundation where it was missing. Another round with nyx hd powder and settingspray. EYES The eyes got the same base with eye primer and the shadows from elf. A black shadow from #thebalm added some depth and smoke. I used gray kajal #loreal both around the lash lines and brows. A trick I came up with when I forgot kajal once was to use the mascara, take a bit of it on a brush, or the back of a knife, which was the solution back then 😅 and paint/stamp. Since the #bbia mascara is the most waterproof I know, I also drew a line of it along each lash line and used it with the mascara brush for the lashes. A couple of red lenses from a local store. HAIR I prepped my hair with mousse and put it up in a ponytail with parts of my hair on top of my head. Then I wrapped strands around the snakes and secured the strands with pins. I sprayed everything with #rco finish spray. The snakes were black but painted with nail polish and acrylic paint. NAILS I painted a black base and painted the threads on plackers and “stamped” the other colors a bit here and there. I used some random brands. The top coat is from #sechevite. FRAGRANCE #ysl Opium Nice and tidy at home after the “extra everything makeup” 😅 Last photo with white over the eyes (I spare you my eyes that are red from both lenses and the fact that it’s around 5 AM. Do you see what insane durability the makeup had?! 12 hours of makeup, five of which were at a party and five at the bar. It was definitely a good idea to use the eyeshadow primer even under the pattern. The pattern can’t really be improved once it’s set, so I’m pleasantly surprised. 🤗 #halloween24

I’ve had the honor of trying this "rinse off serum" from #LOREAL over the past few weeks 😍👩‍🦰 My hair type: 🤖Dry🤖 🤖Damaged & bleached🤖 🤖Wavy/curly🤖 🤖Frizzy🤖 Usage: This is basically like a serum for the hair. You use it after shampooing instead of conditioner. 🧴 My opinion on the product: It really feels like the product penetrates deep into the hair & repairs. The hair becomes very soft & manageable afterwards. I also think it smells very fresh & nice. The consistency is, as you can see in the picture, quite runny & light. Which makes it a bit difficult to apply evenly in the hair, in my opinion. But I found it easiest to section the hair & apply. In summary, a great product for those of you with damaged & worn hair that needs love!💖👩‍🦰 #LOREALPRO #LYKOINFLUTESTER

✅ I like this foundation for it’s price and the texture, it’s not fully matte but satin which will be suitable for many skin types ✅ I used shade 015 neutral which is quite light ( it matches my neck and body, but I usually mix this shade with anything a bit darker just for my preference of not being that pale) ✅ it is easy to blend and it doesn’t separate with many primers I use ✅ long lasting ✅ foundation with spf is perfect for winter times because it does provide enough protection against the sun, in summer however it’s best to use also separate spf cream ‼️ it does have a fragrance in it which is quite strong so if you are sensitive it will be difficult for you ‼️ for a neutral foundation I would say it does still have more yellow in it ( as I always say, do swatch foundation shades in real stores unless you want to play a guess game) #loreal #foundationtest #foundationreview #lykoinflutester
