For me, eyebrows are the most important step in my makeup routine. I've recently discovered a technique that works wonders. 
I only use two products, which you can see in the picture and which I've mentioned many times already - NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder and Alverde tinted eyebrow gel. Both of these I have in the shade Blonde, although maybe I should purchase darker ones next time.
The first thing I do is brush my brows in the shape that I want them with the little spoolie that comes with the NYX powders. When that's done, I dip my H&M Smokey Eye brush (the angled side) into both powders and then the wax. Then, I outline my brows on the top and bottom and gently fill them in. It may sound simple, but it can take quite some time to get them as even as possible. The last step is, obviously, setting them with the eyebrow gel. Not only does it set them, but it gives them a bit more texture and structure so they don't look shiny from the wax. 
That is my whole brow routine. At the moment, I like my brows to be straight with only a slight arch at the very end. Here are some random selfies to show what I mean:

It seems like it's time for me to make another list for you guys. This time, it's all about my favourite videos on YouTube that always manage to put a smile on my face - well, actually, they get me in tears of laughter. Hopefully, you'll find them as funny as I do.
1. This first one has to be my favourite video that has ever been uploaded on YouTube. It's Louise and Tyler's collaboration: Times We've Pooped our Pants. I swear, I cannot watch this video without bursting into laughter.
2. I don't know if you're familiar with the innuendo bingo game, but I'm sure you'll find it very amusing if you watch Joe Suggs videos. My favourite involves Tyler Oakley.
3. And my second favourite involves Marcus Butler.
4. I love the Sugg siblings, so this one floats my boat very much - it's Zoe and Joe's Stuff Your Mouth Challenge.
5. A video that has recently been added to my faves, is Hank Green's 17 Rants in 4 Minutes.
6. I'm sure a lot of you know who GloZell is and can agree with me that she's hilarious at times. It was very difficult listing only one of her videos. I opted for the One Direction I Should Have Kissed You one, but make sure you check out the rest of her 1D related videos as well as some challenge videos (cinnamon, salt and ice, etc).
7. Habanera | The Muppets. No explanation needed.
8. Zoe and Marcus' Accent Challenge
9. And the Bloopers
So, that's all I have for you today, enjoy!

I've been using this micellar water for about two months, and as you can see I've only used up a half of it. Here's 400 mil in the bottle, which is amazing for the price. I am extremely happy with it. If you aren't familiar with the concept of micellar water - it's basically a makeup remover. You apply a bit of it on a cotton pad and you can remove all your face and eye makeup with it. 
Before this one, I'd used a Nivea micellar water, which wasn't nearly as good - I had to use a tone of it to remove a full face of makeup, whereas with this one I only need to use about 5 cotton pads. A lot of people have been raving about the pink version of this, which I haven't tried, but I can definitely say that this one is worth the money. 
As I said, I need about 5 cotton pads to remove a full face of makeup and it takes only a couple of minutes. It doesn't dry out the skin nor does it make it oily, it simply removes makeup and refreshes you a bit. 
I think that's about all I have to say about this product, but if you've got any questions, feel free to ask me.

There are only 4 books in the picture cause some of them I'll read in PDF and some of them I couldn't find.
Hello, everyone! So summer is approaching us and I've been making a list of things I want to accomplish during the break. One of the things on the list (which I might be uploading soon) is reading a bunch of books. Therefor, I'm sharing the books that made the list. Enjoy and let me know if you've read some of them and whether you liked them.
 1. F. Scott Fitzgerald - The Great Gatsby
2. Markus Zusak - The Book Thief
3. Oscar Wilde - The Picture of Dorian Gray
4. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle - The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes
5. Cassandra Clare - The Mortal Instruments: City of Fallen Angels, 
6. City of Lost Souls and 
7. City of Heavenly Fire (those are the 3 books from the TMI series I've not read yet)
8. Sue Monk Kidd - The Secret Life of Bees
9. Charles Dickens - Great Expectations
10. Leo Tolstoy - Anna Karenina 
I've only read a half of it and I feel obligated to finally finish it.

I'm being quite optimistic with 10 books for 3 months, but only time will tell.
