September Loves

Happy September! :) I hope the month has started off well for all of you. This month I have lots of items on my beauty wishlist but I'm also organizing my current makeup collection. If you're a makeupalley user you can check out my swap list here.

At the moment I'm all about radiant glowing skin and also going back to rich eyeliner colours which I've mostly skipped wearing during the past months. Here are a few of my most-wanted this September. I've already ordered a few things online and looking forward to reviewing my favourites when they arrive :)

Bliss face mask:

Hair Inspiration: The Low-slung Ponytail


twisted low ponytailmessy low pony and jil sanders fall collection pinned styleTwisted, wavy and loose, or pinned - there are so many different ways to do the pretty and practical low pony. I like the side-swept styles the best, they seem to suit my face more, but I also want to try the mini beehive or teased look :) (like Victoria's below).

The low-slung ponytail is really a classic. It can be done both formal or casual, another reason why I love this style loads :)

Clarins Tonic Body Treatment Oil

This week I bought the Clarins Huile "Tonic". It comes as a set at the moment with two other items free - smaller versions of the Smoothing Body Scrub and the Extra Firming Body Cream.

The tonic oil is meant to improve skin elasticity to prevent stretch marks and to maintain skin firmness. I like that it's made with 100% pure plant extracts like Hazelnut, Rosemary, Geranium and Mint, which also give it a lovely scent. I'm not sure if any firming and toning is going on but it does make my skin super soft and feels luxurious to put on :) The same for the body cream. The best thing about this set might be the scrub, I love it! I had tried it before and now I'm totally convinced, I must get the full size :)
