Fashioned in Finland

About a month ago I needed a new hand cream and I decided to try Freeman Goodstuff organics this time. This contains organic ingredients and it's natural enough for me, there is no silicones, parabens or mineral oils. The product wasn't sealed in the shop (like most products here) and at home I noticed that this was already "tested". Yuck. The packaging looks nice & "fresh" (it's made of recycled plastic). The products is thick, smell is ok (not delicious scent but not bad either) and absorbs quickly. I can use this in daytime too but it still enough for nights. This is a good one, I might even buy this again some day :) Noin kuukausi sitten tarvitsin uuden käsirasvan ja päätin kokeilla Freemanin Goodstuff Organics-käsivoidetta. Tämä sisältää luomu-ainesosia ja on ainakin minulle ihan tarpeeksi luonnollinen: ei silikoneja, mineraaliöljyjä tai parabeenejä. Tämäkään tuote ei ollut sinetöity kaupassa ja kotona huomasinkin tämän olevan jo "testat...

I've been a soap addict for a while :D Soaps are just so pretty and good for your skin. I had been planning to order from OHWTO (One Hand Washed the Other) for a while and I'm so glad I finally did! Guess what my friends will get as a Christmas present ;) I got following products: Olen ollut nyt vähän aikaa palasaippua-addikti ja paluuta suihkugeeleihin ei taida enää olla :D Palasaippuat ovat kauniita, ihanan tuoksuisia, hyviä iholle eikä tarvitse kantaa vettä kaupasta kotiin. Olin jo pidempään miettinyt tilaamista OHWTOlta (One Hand Washes the Other) mutta jotenkin asia vain aina jäi. Onneksi kuitenkin vihdoinkin tilasin, eipä ole ongelmia keksiä kavereille joululahjoja ;D Ostin seuraavat tuotteet: DIY soaps- your choice of scents and colors , 2 pieces/ 8 USD. I was expecting "regular looking" soaps and the I got these beauties, I'm in love! I took Vanillime in lime color and Ginger Ale (in what ever color), both smell delicious and these even have lovely shimme...

**This giveaway is now closed** There is still time to enter my giveaway! I'll choose the winner on 2th of August (details below). And then about the comments... Well, I love comments :D Every now and then I even randomly choose one commenter and send her something. Lillian (from Funny face's Place) won Inglot Sleeks Gloss just a few days ago :) But there sems to a problem with the comment system in my blog... Some of my readers have commented but their comment are hiding somewhere and I event can find those comments. Somehow some comments went on Intense debate and some on Bloggers own, so I had to get rid of Intense Debate. Now it seems that the old replies are gone. How nice >:( I printed all the replies to giveaway post, so those I have! I hope commenting is easier now, unfortunately I can't reply to some older post now :( Vielä on muutama päivä aikaa osallistua arvontaan (tiedot alla)! Voittaja valitaan 2.8. illalla eli aikaa on vielä :) Ja sitten vielä kommenteista...

We will get new brand to Finland soon: Giorgio Armani! It will only be available at Helsinki (Stockmann). Do you have any favorites from this brand? Stockmannin Premiere-lehdessä olikin mukava mainos: Giorgio Armani meikit tulevat Helsinkiin pian :D Yllä kuva mainoksesta. Olen näitä maailmalla hieman katsellut mutta en ole ostanut niitä koskaan. Kiinnostaako merkki? Onko sinulla jo jotain suosikkeja? Itse taidan päästä helpoiten tutustumaan näihin taas Saksassa tai Hong Kongissa :)

I saw this lovely new hair care range in The Body Shop, it's called Rainforest. They have 4 different lines for different hair types: Shine (normal/dry hair), Balance (oily), Moisture (dry/ damaged hair) and Radiance (coloured hair). The products are free of silicones, sulphates, parabens or colourants. Yay! Naturally I couldn't resist of buying these ;) I got package of travel sized products. The package contained 2x Radiance shampoo, 2x Radiance conditioner & a comb and I also got a sample of Moisture shampoo and conditioner. I REALLY liked the products and I'l buy full size of Radiance shampoo and conditioner later. The bilberry scent was lovely and my hair feels soft and conditioned. There were 3 sizes available: 60ml, 250ml and 400ml. Näin The Body Shopissa uuden hiustenhoitosarjan nimeltä Rainforest. Tarjolla on 4 eri linjaa eri hiustyypeille: Shine (normaalit/kuivat hiukset), Balance (rasvoittuvat hiukset), Moisture (kuivat/vahingoittuneet hiukset) ja Radiance (v...

I had only green "Here today... Aragon tomorrow" from OPI España (fall 2009) collection, but that was before I fell in love with Spain ;) I loved Barcelona and I hope next time I'll visit Mallorca. Now I saw this "No Spain No Gain" on sale and had to get it! In fact the color is something I've been looking for, it's purple creme but definitely reddish/ berry shade. They had also Pamplona Purple on sale but it's too close to Essence "Break Through" so I decided not to take it. The normal price for a bottle of OPI is 15.90€ (~20.5 USD) here, that's A LOT. Minulla oli OPIn España-kokoelmasta vain vihreä "Here today... Aragon tomorrow" mutta tuo oli ennen kuin rakastuin Espanjaan ;) Kanarialle en mene enää koskaan mutta Barcelona vei sydämeni, seuraavaksi ehkä Mallorcalle. Nyt löysin tämän "No Spain No Gain"-lakan Stokkan alepöydästä ja korjasin kaunottaren mukaani, olinkin tälläistä sävyä hakenut. Koostumus on creme, l...

A few EOTDs more with Meow Caribbean & Lost Rainforest pigments. Both collection are just GORGEOUS! I already have full sizes of Mantis, Piranha, Boa and Canna blush and I bought Cayman, Pink Sand and Ginger Torch blush yesterday. I'm very suprised that I loved Jamba Fruit Dove, it's lovely neutral shade. Both of the collections are limited editions (Lost Rainforest will retire 8/30/2010) but hopefully Meow will sell these again next summer! Ja vielä muutama EOTD kera Meowin Caribbean ja Lost Rainforest pigmenttien. Molemmat kokoelmat ovat aivan upeita ja ostin pari täysikokoista lisää eilen (ks. ale-postaukseni). Viime vuonna ostin Mantiksen, Piranhan, Boan sekä Canna-poskipunan ja nyt Caymanin, Pink Sandin ja Ginger Torch-poskipunan. Yrityisen yllätynyt olen Jamba Fruit Dovesta, en todellakaan yleensä pidä neutraaleista sävyistä mutta tämä oli upea! Kokoelmat eivät kuulu (valitettavasti) Meowin vakivalikoimiin mutta toivottavasti ovat myynnissä taas ensi kesänä! Lost Rain...

I'm trying to learn to take better nail photos... I don't undersatnd why it felt so difficult compared to EOTDs :D So here is one of my favorites, NARS Purple Rain. I bought this from Hong Kong last spring. Treenailen parempien kynsikuvien ottamista. En tajua miksi tämä on tuntunut niin vaikealta meikkikuviin verrattuna... Varmaan vain tottumiskysymys :D Tässä siis yksi suosikeistani, NARS Purple Rain, jonka ostin viime keväällä Hong Kongista. I wanted to test my Nfu Oh nail polishes again too, my older photos were just terrible :P Here is NARS Purple Rain + Nfu Oh #50. It's prettier irl than in photos, it has lovely color changing (blue-green) flecks. Yritän kuvata myös kaikki Nfu Oh-hippulakkani uudelleen, vanhat kuvat olivat niin surkeita etten kaikkia edes julkaissut. Alla siis NARS Purple Rain kera Nfu Oh #50:n. Kauniimpi luonnossa, kuten kaikki Nfun hippulakat, hiput vaihtavat väriä sinisestä vihreää valosta riippuen. Hope you liked it :)
