PURPLE SHAMPOO

 BLEACH BLONDES

LEE STAFFORD

How to keep your hair blonde? Lee Stafford has the secret

I'm sure there's a lot of you out there who love your blonde hair but it just won't stop getting yellow after a few washes? If you haven't got an angel in your life to tell you that there is a thing called purple shampoo, that fights the yellow in your hair, let me be the one to tell you.
The whole idea of the shampoo being purple is that the purple is the total opposite on the colour wheel to yellow. So in order to fight the yellow/orange hues in your hair, you have to fight them with purple ones.
Some people claim that even a little purple hair colour creme or even purple / blue food colouring in shampoo works, but it did not work for me.
There's tons of purple shampoos out there on the market, and I have tried A LOT of them.
Most recommended was Keune Silver reflect  , but to be honest, I was looking for a cheaper version, because I'm a student on a budget.

Menda nisem edina, ki je blond in ima težave s tem, da ji lasje porumenijo pa parih pranjih? Če v življenju nimaš angela, ki bi ti povedal, da obstaja vijoličen šampon, naj bom jaz ta tvoj angelček.
Vijoličen šampon je narejen, da ubija rumene/oranžne tone v tvojih laseh. V bistvu to izhaja iz tega, ker je vijolična barva ravno nasprotje rumene v barvnem kolesu.
Brala sem tudi ''recepte'' in članke o tem, da v šampon dodaš modro ali vijolično barvo za hrano, vendar to na meni ni delovalo.
Najbolj priporočan Keune Silver Effect vijoličen šampon tudi ni deloval na meni in po resnici povedano, sem iskala cenejšo opcijo, sam sem le študentka z omejeno količino denarja in 13€ za šampon se mi zdi malce preveč.


I have found a shampoo from Lee Stafford , and fell in love immediately after seeing the packaging itself. 
I really like the design. It has a little dog, a funky font, and in the back, there's a quote that says ''Have fun, look wicked, smell BEAutiful'' (Jim Carrey making sure noone will ever forget how to spell that word, am I right?), and his signature. 
You really get the impression that the company actually put time and effort into creating this. 
So the first impression was really good! 

Našla sem šampon od Lee Stafforda, ki je stal 8€ v DMu. Takoj sem se zaljubila v pakiranje, saj ima tako funky pisavo in luškanega kužka. 
Na pakiranju piše ''Have fun, look wicked, smell BEAutiful'', in če ste odraščali takrat kot jaz, se verjetno spomnete Jima Carreyja kako je izgovoril B E A uuutiful, tako da nikoli ne bomo pozabili tega.

The shampoo is more affordable than other purple shampoos, at least on our market, and you really don't need a lot. Especially compared to other purple shampoos out there.
The other puprle shampoos I tried didn't even have the proper foam of a shampoo. This one foamed up really nicely.
After using it, my hair did not feel damaged like it did after using Keune's shampoo. 
The other good thing about it is the smell, it smells really nice and fresh in my opinion.

Šampon je cenejši kot večina delujočih vijoličnih šamponov pri nas.
Tisti šamponi, ki sem jih poskusila, se sploh niso spenili kot navaden šampon.
In superrrrr diši! 


He also doesn't promote animal testing!

GIFT IDEA

CHRISTMAS WITH AVON

MR AND MRS FROSTY

Yes, I already started obsessing over christmas. To be honest, ever since the month October ended!

Ja, vem da še ni december, ampak jaz sem že obsedena z božičem. Po pravici povedano, sem navdušena že od konca oktobra.


So, I've had these bubble bath thingies from Avon since last christmas, and I'm finally getting to use them ! Yay! 

Te dve kopeli od Avona imam že od prejšnjega božiča, vendar nikoli nista prišla na vrsto.

Avon Products, Inc, known as Avon, is an American international manufacturer and direct selling company in beauty, household, and personal care categories. Avon had annual sales of $10.0 billion worldwide in 2013.

So the bubble baths are called Mrs. Frosty and Mr. Frosty, the Mrs. Frosty smells like cranberry and orange, and the Mr. Frosty smells like apple spice. The apple spice smells SO GOOD, like winter. 

The cranberry orange one is more for the people who love the ''not so natural'' sweets.

Kopeli sta gospod in gospa Frosty. Mrs. Frosty diši zelo sladko in jo priporočam kot darilo tistim, ki imajo radi osladne vonjave. Za tiste, ki pa imajo radi božične vonjave kot so cimet in jabolka, pa priporočam Mr. Frosty.

FACE CARE ROUTINE

HIMALAYA HERBALS 



I recently started taking care of my skin, well at least trying to. 
I've always have a love for Himalaya products so I decided to try some out. I went to the closest drugstore - DM, and picked out a scrub and a foam. 
And let me tell you, they smell so good!
So I started using them, first once a week, then more frequently.
And with time, I started seeing results. Lemme tell u girl, they are impressive! 

Pred kratkim sem se odločila, da bom začela skrbeti za svojo kožo, no, vsaj probala bom, hehe.
Od nekdaj sem imela rada izdelke od Himalaye, še posebej njihovo labelo.
Kot vedno sem šla v DM in kupila mini piling in peno. 

Super diši in s časom sem opazila rezultate.

I bought these two products : 

They claim to remove all excess oils, bacteria and it is supposed to care for you skin not to dry out. 
It actually helps for me, my skin feels really baby soft afterwards.
I am in no way an expert, I can just share my experiences. 

Izdelka naj bi odstranjevala nepotrebna olja z obraza, bakterijo in naj bi skrbela, da se koža ne izsuši. 
Meni dejansko pomaga, moja koža je zelo mehka po uporabi.
Nisem ekspert za te stvari, lahko pa delim svoje izkušnje.

CARROT PASTA - easy vegan lunch

Who said vegans don't have anything to eat? 



So, I believe you have all heard at least someone ask you, at least once, ''So you just eat salads then?''
And the common misconception is that you have to be rich in order to be a vegan. Trust me, if that was the case, I wouldn't be posting this right now. All the money you save up when you don't buy meat, you can spend on the essentials.
I am here to prove people that being vegan can be really easy and destressing!

Upam si dati roko v ogenj, da si zagotovo že slišala ''O, a potem ješ samo solate, ko si vegan?''
Še ena butasta zmota je, da moraš biti bogat, da lahko ješ vegansko. Verjemi mi, če bi bila to resnica, ta blog ne bi obstajal in jaz bi jedla umor.
Ves denar, ki ga prihraniš s tem, ko ne kupuješ mesa in sira, lahko zapraviš na OGROMNO stvareh, ki jih kot vegan ješ vsak dan.

And, who said leftovers can't be fun? Today's lunch came to be just because I had leftovers from previous days and the thought of them laying in my fridge was haunting me.
Plus, I was really lazy, so this is a super quick easy recipe but is really really delicious. 

Pa kdo je rekel, da so ostanki bedni? Moje kosilo je nastalo iz ostankov prejšnjega dne, in ker sovražim, da mi neka hrana leži v hladilniku, sem se odločila, da to porabim. Pa čisto po pravici, bila sem zelo lena, haha.

I shall stop boring you and just tell you about the recipe!
Nehala te bom dolgočasiti in ti dala recept!


You will need :
Potrebovala boš:

  • Coconut butter (kokosovo maslo)
  • 1 serving of Spaghetti (špageti za tebe)
  • 1/2 small onion (polovica male čebule)
  • 1 carrot (grated) (nariban korenček)
  • 1 tbsp mixed seeds (žlica semen)
  • 1 tbsp unsweetened almond milk (žlica mandljevega mleka)
  • 1 tsp curry (žlička curryja)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder (žlička česna v prahu)
  • 1 tsp salt (žlička soli)
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper (žlička kajenskega popra)
  • 1 tsp soy sauce (žlička sojine omake)




Keep in mind, the ingredients were my leftovers, so the pasta was already cooked.
Imej v mislih, da sem imela špagete že skuhane.


I just took a pan and put coconut butter, and when it melted, I just put the onion beforehand and had it on high heat until it turned golden. After that, I put it on medium heat and just added the spaghetti, the carrot and the seeds and I just seasoned it with spices of my choice. After a few minutes, I just took a little bit of unsweetened almond milk because I think it gave it an almost kind of creamy texture + I added soy sauce, just because I love how the food tastes and looks after you've added soy sauce. 

Vzela sem ponev in stopila kokosovo maslo, nato sem dodala čebulo in jo pražila na močnem ognju, dokler se ni obarvala zlato. Nato sem zmanjšala ogenj in dodala špagete, korenje, semena ter začimbe. Po nekaj minutah sem dodala žlico mandljevega mleka, ker je jed naredilo kremasto. Na koncu sem dodala še sojino omako, in to je to.

To be honest with you, I was actually really surprised how filling the meal was! I highly suggest trying it.

Če sem čisto iskrena, sem bila presenečena nad tem, kako nasitno je bilo vse skupaj. 

BON APPETIT

CATRICE NAIL POLISH

LE GRAND BLEU NAILS 

CATRICE


This was actually a limited edition piece in the ''Le Grand Bleu'' collection. (click the name of the collection to take you to the site)

Lak je bil del limited editiona v kolekciji ''Le grand bleu''. Klikni zgoraj, da te odpelje na stran.
I've been wearing dark fall colours on my nails but they were mostly red and I wanted to spice it up, so this nail polish caught my eye in my collection.

Zadnje čase se lakiram s temnimi barvami, vendar mi je šlo počasi na živce, ker so bili moji nohti konstantno rdeči. Želela sem si spremembe in seveda me je pot zanesla v DM, kjer sem našla (ponovno) CATRICE lak. 






It is in colour C04 - Entering Atlantis and I think it's a perfect colour for fall and for winter if you're open to not-so-basic nail colours.
It has a metallic finish and you only need 1 coat to get the colour that is promised. 
I've had it for a week and it hasn't chipped yet, and it dried super quickly when I put it on.

Je v barvi c04 in sem mnenja, da je super barva za jesen in zimo, če te ni strah nenavadnih barv. Ima metallic finish in potrebuješ samo en sloj, da barva pride do izraza. 
Nosim ga že en teden, pa se še kar ni odkrušil. Seveda pa se tudi hitro posuši.


Catrice, you never disappoint me!
Catrice, nikoli me ne razočaraš!

NOVEMBER PRINTABLE

NOVEMBER, WELCOME!


I know I'm actually a day late for this, but it doesn't matter as long as I put it up for you guys!
If you haven't started planing your month already or if you still haven't gotten a planner, I got you covered! 
I'm just going to post these DIY calendars every month now. You can print them out. You can also make them yourself, in word excel! 

So I'm just gonna stop rambling and give you the printable, enjoy! Hope you like it. It's still fall themed but I made the tabel blue, because where I live, it rains a lot more in november. It's actually gotten so much colder in the last few days, so I can't get away with wearing just a faux leather jacket, I actually have to put on a big warm coat!

I had so much trouble converting this from .doc to .jpg I almost gave up on it, but gladly I stuck through it, and here it is :
