My iPhone cases

When I bought my iPhone a few weeks ago I went straight online to buy iphone cases. It’s a great way to personalize your iPhone. There are so many cute ones but these were the ones that caught my eye first.

The rabbit case is not the most convenient – but so cute! :)

Right now I’m using the white one with pearls. Which one is your favorite? :)

Stress

Sorry for my late blog post today, I’ve head such a stressful day – after finishing my exam earlier today I went straight to the train station to go back to Lillehammer. The reason I’m going back today is because my big brother will be here the weekend. My exam went pretty well earlier so I’m really happy about that, it feels so good to be done! One down, two more to go…

Me and my friend Amalie before heading out last night. We had such an amazing day, I think the Norwegian National Day must be one of my favorite days of the whole year! The streets are crowded with happy and cheerful people. The weather also turned out to be great, instead of rain we got a bright sun! Now I’m going to take a nap, I’m exhausted!

Have a nice weekend cupcakes!

17th of May

Hello beauties! Just dropping a few lines before I’m heading out. We are on our way to join some friends for a so called “champagne breakfast” – to start the celebrations! :)

Me in my bunad from the county Nordland. The weather is not great today but we have our fingers crossed it will get better during the day! Have a nice day sweethearts! :)

Preparations

Hey cupcakes! I’m having a lazy morning today, it’s raining outside and I’m having coffee after coffee trying to wake up. I’ve been studying a lot the last couple of days, my exam is in just two days. However, I’m trying to finish most of my exam preparations now as I’m going to Oslo later today to celebrate the Norwegian National Day which is tomorrow. It’s been many years since last time I was in Norway for to celebrate so I’m really excited to be here now, it’s such a wonderful day! :)

I know I have a lot of international readers and if any of you are planning to visit Norway one day you should definitely go in mid May, so you can experience the special 17th of May celebrations! Tomorrow, I’ll keep you updated during the day with photos on Twitter/Instagram (@byhanne)! :)

EcoTools Bamboo Bronzer Brush

I bought this brush out of pure curiosity after reading all the good reviews on Makeupalley. There are some products you just can’t go wrong with – 303 reviews; has a 4,8 rating and 96% would repurchase – that sounds pretty promising to me. I’ve only been using this brush for a couple of days but so far I love it. The fact that it’s a earth-friendly and cruelty-free brush make me love it even more.

The bristles are synthetic but feels super soft and dense. It doesn’t shed and applies products beautifully on my skin. It picks up a lot of product and is easy to blend. Although it’s supposed to be a bronzer brush I’ve used it with everything; liquid foundation, mineral powder foundation, blush, bronzer and as a blending brush – it works great with everything. However I love using it with powder and as a blending brush.

The only downside is that the bulky which makes it a little bit tricky for storage and traveling. As it is a synthetic brush I’m quite excited to see if it stay soft after washing it, I’ll come with an update.

You can get it on iHerb or ebay, I’ve also seen it at pharmacies in Norway. :)
