Forleden var jeg forbi Matas for liiige at se om de ikke havde en fin lak jeg ikke kunne leve uden. Og det havde de selvfølgelig, men de havde også et tilbud fra Essie, hvor du for køb af Essie produkter for 200 kr. fik en gratis neglebåndscreme med (til en værdi af 107 kr.). Haps, så valgte jeg lige en smuk himmelblå og en lækker nude lak. Jeg har ledt efter en fin blå farve det stykke tid og nude negle er eftersigende sæsonens største negletrend, så det var åbenlyst en ren nødvendighed, at de kom med mig hjem sammen med min nye neglebåndscreme.

Bare et lille tip, hvis I også skulle være på jagt efter en ny lak eller to – og godt kan lide at få en lille gave med oveni købet ;)

English: The other day I went into Matas to see if they happened to have a nail polish I couldn’t live without. And of course they did, but they also had an offer from Essie, where you got a free conditioning cuticle remover if you purchased Essie products for DKK 200. So I chose a beautiful sky blue nail polish and delicious nude one. I’ve been looking for a nice blue color for a while and nude nails is apparently the biggest nail trend this season, so it was obviously a pure necessity that they came home with me along with my new cuticle creme.

Just a little tip, if you also happen to be looking for a new nail polish or two – and like to get a little free gift with your purchase ;)

Efter åbningen af &Other Stories var jeg selvfølgelig nødt til at tage derind for at se, hvad alt posturet gik ud på. Jeg må indrømme, at jeg er ret vild med indretningen af de store butikslokaler på Amagertorv. Jeg elsker hele æstetikken i indretningen og displayet af deres varer. Tøjet er jeg egentlig ikke helt så pjattet med, som andre synes at være. Jeg synes måske, at det er lidt kedeligt og andet underligt. Til gengæld synes jeg, at hele beauty-afdelingen er fantastisk! Selv en beauty-novice, som mig selv, kan få lang tid til at gå rundt og kigge, prøve og dufte til de mange forskellige produkter. Udover deres eget mærke, fører de også L:A Bruket, Dr Bronne, Stop the Water, Erborian, This Works og Wash with Joe.

Jeg kom hjem med en Body Scrub Fig Fiction med den skønneste duft af figner (?!). Jeg anede ikke, at figner dufter så dejligt. Selv drengen er stor fan af duften. Håndcremen Lemon Daydream duftede også så dejlig friskt af citroner, at den også var nødt til at komme hjem til mig at bo, men det var en svær beslutning at skære det ned til de to, for der var mange dejlige dufte at vælge imellem. Sidenhen har jeg været forbi igen, hvor der kom en neglelak med lækreste nuance af orange og den fineste metallic let lyserød øjenskygge med hjem.

English: After the opening of &Other Stories, I had to drop by to see what all the fuss was about. I have to admit that I’m crazy about the decoration of the large space at Amagertorv in central Copenhagen. I love the whole aesthetics and way they have displayed the products. I’m not that into the clothes, like others seem to be. I think, that some of it is a little boring and some just weird. However, I think, that the entire beauty department is incredible! Even a beauty novice like myself, can easily spend a long time just walking around looking, testing and smelling the many different products. Beside their own brand, they also carry L:A Bruket, Dr Bronne, Stop the Water, Erborian, This Works and Wash with Joe.

I returned home with a body scrub, called Fig Fiction , with the loveliest scent of figs (?!). I never knew that figs smelled so amazing. Even the boy is a huge fan of the scent. The hand lotion Lemon Daydream also smelled so amazingly fresh of lemons, that it had to come home with me, but it was a difficult decision to cut down to those two, because there were so many lovely scents to choose between. Since then I’ve been by the store again, where a nail polish in the perfect shade of orange and a the prettiest metallic light pink eyeshadow came home with me.

Som jeg ævlede om tidligere , så er jeg pludselig blevet meget glad for orange. Særligt på neglene. I sidste uge lykkedes det mig at finde den perfekte nuance hos & Other Stories. Den hedder Tartarin Orange. Jeg har af gode grunde ikke så meget erfaring med & Other Stories lakker, da butikken er helt ny, men denne her har holdt rigtig fint. Jeg er bestemt tilfreds. Ringene er også nye og er fra Just Female.

English: As I was rambling on about earlier , I’m suddenly very into orange. Especially on my nails. Last week I succeed in finding the perfect shade at & Other Stories. It’s called Tartarin Orange. For obviously reasons I don’t have much experience with & Other Stories’ nail polishes, since the store is brand new, but this one has lasted really nicely. I’m definitely happy with it. The rings are also new and are from Just Female.
