At the end of the summer this year I filmed three makeup videos with VG and Min Mote. In the looks "smokey eyes", "full, red lips" and "flawless skin" I demonstrate some simple, but useful application techniques using some of my favourite brushes and products. The films are finally out for you to see, so if you haven't already, feel free to click on the links below. Any questions – give me a shout!

Hiya! Sincere apologies for have gone AWOL the last couple of months. The reason for this is simply: not enough hours in a day. I´ve always thought it´s better to not post anything at all than a million bad posts, but still I feel terribly guilty for letting my valuable readers down. I have attached photographic evidence to justify the last months of silence, and hope that you guys are willing to return to the Beauty-boks pages every week. I promise I´ll be good again :)

Last Thursday, 28 June, was a very special day. We were a group on Scandinavian and Baltic journalists and bloggers who were invited to the opening of the very spectacular, outdoor exhibition 'Northern Women in Chanel' - a collaboration between the French couture house and the visionary duo Peter Farago and Ingela Klemetz-Farago. It was 24 gorgeous hours from start to finish down by the sunny cliffs of Tjøme, Norway.

Working on another deadline (actually, 2!) from a cute little cafe on Broadway Market today. I'm really enjoying it here, but feel I should do another blogpost, as my contribution here has not exactly been up to scratch recently. Like Donald Trump always says, I've tried to 'step up to the plate', but when one is all over the place with work, it is hard to find time and inspiration to do quality posts (although I hope you have seen the recent competitions and amazing gifts!). So here comes a little quantity post, featuring me (yikes!), my current favourite lipgloss, my fresh polished nails, my dry-shampooed hair as I ran out of electricity last night and the cutest cat in the world. 'Dear Blog!'
