Black and white stripe nails New week, new nails. A very simple design made fast with a black and a white nail art pen. I could have maybe done the stripes better, but I've been a bit sick and my hands are very shaky :)  I used Sally Hansen's Diamond Strength nail hardener as a base, as always. I sealed the nails with Mavala's Top coat fixator.

Vihreä smoothie resepti Smoothiet on ehkä yksi helpoimmista tavoista lisätä vihannesten ja hedelmien kulutusta. Ihmisen pitäisi syödä hedelmiä sekä vihanneksia vähintään puoli kiloa päivässä. Se saattaa tuntua isolta määrältä, mutta kun pikkuhiljaa lisää hedelmien ja vihannesten määrää ruokavalioonsa, terveellisestä ruokavaliosta on pian vaikea luopua :) Hedelmien syöminen ei tuota yleensä vaikeuksia ihmisille, mutta vihannesten syöminen tuntuu olevan vaikeampaa.

Itse noudatan sääntöä jonka mukaan syön joka aterialla ainakin yhden hedelmän tai vaihtoehtoisesti annoksen vihanneksia. Smootheihin yritän aina lisätä vihanneksia, mm. porkkanaa, avocadoa tai pinaattia. Avocado on myös oiva levite leivälle, ja sopii erinomaisesti etenkin kalkkunaleikkeen kaveriksi.

Tässäpä terveellinen resepti joka sisältää sekä hedelmiä, paljon kuitua ja vähän vihannestakin. Ohjeesta tulee yksi iso lasillinen.

0,5dl appelsiinimehua
0,5dl maitoa ( itse käytän soijamaitoa smootheissa)
kourallinen tuoreita pinaatinlehtiä
1 kuorittu kiivi
1 rkl kuorimattomia seesaminsiemeniä
3 jääpalaa

1. Pese pinaatinlehdet
2. heitä kaikki ainesosat blenderiin. Seesaminsiemenet kannattaa laittaa viimeiseksi.
3. Sekoita kunnes seos on tasaista.
4. Nauti!

DIY Sea shell decor

Like many kids, I used to love sea shells. Every time we went on a beach holiday I gathered a bucket full of sea shells. A few days ago I was cleaning the apartment and found a box of junk. In this box was a smaller box full of both big and small, gathered and bought sea shells as well as small rocks. First I thought about throwing them way, but then I thought about my parent's house; my mom loves ocean related decor things, so this gave me an idea. Here's what I came up with: I have an Iittala Aalto-tray with a candle and glass beads in the livingroom. I threw  the smaller sea shells with the beads, and I'm really happy about the result.

I happened to have a small glass jar with air bubbles. I put the rocks on the bottom of the jar and sea shells on top. I also had a really old brown "bling" jewel in the sea shell box, so I threw that into the glass jar as well. It almost looks as if the sea shells are swimming in bubbly ocean water, don't you think? :)

Platinum blonde and pastel pink hair Finally I have super blonde platinum hair. And a new, "longer in the front, supershort in the back" edgy haircut as well. A while back here in my hometown Turku, a local hair salon called Avantgarde decided to organize a happening where they would give free haircuts/colouring for about 80 people. However, there was a condition: the hairstylist would have totally free hands. This wasn't a problem for me because I've had supershort hair and I've tried literally every possible colour. You can imagine that people went crazy when they heard about the happening. Why is it that when it comes to getting something for free, people freak out?

Normally a haircut and colour would cost about 100euros. Me and my two cousins decided to be crazy and try our luck. Lucky enough, I live next to the hairsalon so we were looking from my balcony when people would start gathering in front of the salon. All in all we waited 12 hours before we were finished,crazy huh? 5hours waiting outside...In the middle of winter...in Finland. It was a freezing cold evening and I still shiver when I think of those 5 hours in minus degrees :)

Even if it got very cold, I have no regrets. The people waiting with us were super nice, and we were all making jokes and cheering each other. I got a fabulous hair colour and cut. In addition my hair was shiny and felt super soft. My colour was very blonde in the beginning so the the stylist decided she would "alter" it just a "bit". I was a bit surprised when she started putting baby pink goo in my hair :D I was actually happy when the stylist said that the colour would be "icy strawberry platinum". I love Nicki Minaj's cotton candy hair! In the end the colour doesn't really look like pink, only in a certain light.

I've maintained the platinum and "pink" hair with two products, Paul Mitchell's Platinum Blonde shampoo and L'oreal Preferance pastel toning conditioner. The shampoo is actually a violet shampoo which takes any brassiness away. I use it once a week for 5 minutes. There are many good violet shampoos on the market,but right now I prefer the PM. Good alternatives are Fudge's Clean Blonde Violet shampoo and L'oréal Professionnel Silver shampoo. The PM shampoo costs about 15euros, but it will last for long. The smell reminds me of cucumber :)

As you can see from the picture, the L'oreal pastel toning conditioner is pretty pink. In order for the colour to show properly, you HAVE TO have blonde hair.  I've tested and come to the conclusion that if you want a truly light baby-pink shade of pink, it's best to mix the pastel conditioner into your normal conditioner. I use a quarter size amount of the pastel conditioner, and same amount of regular conditioner. But IF you want a pinker shade, use the toner conditioner only and leave for longer than 5 minutes. The colour will fade away in a few washs so you have to reapply pretty soon.

The next picture will show you how light of a pink shade I have, you can barely call it pink. But I assure in bright daylight it looks baby-strawberry pink :) I put a white paper in front of my face for the colour  to show better.
