What I like | Charles Worthington shampoo +conditioner

Hey everyone!

We all know that we have to take care of our hair, especially when we want to grow it long. Of course, there are lots of products to keep it smooth and keep it from damaging by, for example, a flat iron. But the most important part is to have a good shampoo and conditioner.

A couple of weeks ago I was in a drugstore, and my eyes got caught by a sale. 'Two Charles Worthington shampoo and conditioner for only €10,-'. Since my other shampoo was almost empty, and I never heard of this one before, I was like: Let's try! I'm always in for something new, and I always wanted to try different things every single time.

First thing I liked were the bottles itself. It's not the regular shampoo bottle I'm used to. Second, when I first used it, there was this gorgeous smell that overwhelmed me, wow! From that moment I really fell in love. But of course, good looking and good smelling are not the most important things, just as it isn't with human. It's important what's inside right? If a person treats you right, you like him/her, same with shampoo: if it treats my hair well, I wanna have it.

So now, a couple of weeks later, I'm still in love! It feels like the shampoo and conditioner are a perfect match. The shampoo is transparant and the conditioner white as you can see at the picture (or not see because it is transparant). And as I just dyed my hair, I don't want my hair to get split ends. And now, my hair looks more healthy.


Pro's :
-It doesn't really foam. Some will see that as a con, because it's less easy to spread it through your hair. But to me it's a pro. Since it doesn't foam, it means there is no SLS in it, which is great because SLS cleanses so deeply that is actually damages your hair and head.
- it smells awesome!
it's an easy and funlooking bottle.
-hair feels more nourished after the first time.

cons:
- I don't know if it's me, but when I apply this shampoo my hair feels a lot thinner under the shower.That's pretty weird. In real, my hair is just a little bit thinner than usual so if you have thin hair yourself, I won't recommend it.
- it sometimes leaves some rests of shampoo in your hair.

Hope you enjoyed my blog and stay tuned!!

Tsunacon 2013 | Kirito's Everywhere

Hey everyone!

So last sunday there was another cosplay convention where I went to, Tsunacon!! It was the first time I visited Tsunacon and I was really amazed! It is quite different than the other conventions I went to. There were so many people! Cosplayers everywhere! And of course, I made a video about this awesome convention ;).

This convention was held in Rotterdam. The building had three floors. On the main floor were the most things you could do. There was the dealer room, pretty big and so many stuff I want to have! *_*, the game room and the garderobe for bags and coats. As usual, I walked the dealer room 5 times to make sure I didn't miss something. And of course, when there is a kpop stand, I must buy stuff!! Too bad there didn't seem to be any kpop things that I like, but a friend of mine still got me a 2NE1 poster, as I normally buy at convention. That means I still overlooked something. What I also bought was this cute little t-shirt with japanese food, isn't it just so super adorable? Guess so! I also got this little lipbalm that looks like a geisha, and as you know I totally love geisha's! And, one more thing that I love: cute panda's! The same friend of mine was so sweet to also buy this one for me! I really got spoiled.

The best thing is that it was a suprise for me, since I was gone to a photoshoot for al the Sword Art Online cosplayers! That was the point I realized there were a lot more kirito's than I thought! Really, WOW! But there seemed to be missing some Asuna's, so we were only with three. The shoot took quite long, but I really like the pictures there are made on the second floor.

So on the second and first floor you could find DDR and some maidcafé's. There was real food you can buy, which I'm not really used to. They had sushi, bapao and of course noodles, but also cotton candy in sweet japanese bags. I bought one of Hello Kitty and there is no way that bag will land in the dustbin.

There were also a lot of activities at Tsunacon, but unfortunately I wasn't able to go because of time. I also would love to see the Fashion shows, but I arrived a little late so I couldn't see them. :(
Nevertheless, I really enjoyed Tsunacon and I hope to be there next year!

Underneath, you can find a short movie about Tsunacon I made and some photo's I took.

Look of the Week 6 | Sword Art Online

Hey everyone!

you might be thinking, did I miss LOTW 5? Well no, it simply does not excist. Why? Because there was also something else on my mind that, for one of the few times, was more important than blogging: school. As you know it's my senior year and I wanna rock it! So sorry, no LOTW 5, I'm really sorry! So this week I got a special LOTW!!! Hope you like it :)

This sunday I went to Tsunacon, another cosplay convention. Yes, I'm pretty addicted to it!! The best anime I've ever seen is Sword Art Online, so I was so happy when I was able to go as Asuna form SAO. Well, not really SAO, but ALO, another part of the SAO-story. And.. tadadataaaaaaaam: I made it all myself! (except for the wig, ears and necklace). What do you think?


For the ones that don't know Alfheim Online (ALO), it's the second part of the animeserie SAO season 1, where Asuna is locked in a cage and must be saved by Kirigaya Kazuto, aka Kirito, which she met at the game Sword Art Online. Alfheim Online is more like a pixie-game. People can fly and they have those funny elf-ears. The necklace represents Yui, a little girl/virtual admin in SAO, who dissapeared when she 'hacked' the gameplays at SAO.

So, now that's clear let's talk about the costume. Well, it took some time, but I'm pretty proud of it. It was a lot of fun to do this, and it brought a lot of experience. It was the first time I find all the items for its and ewed all the clothes myself. I really liked doing it all by myself, and I hope to do it more often!

Eventhough it was freaking cold outside and I didn't want to catch a cold, I first looked totally noob outside with my ginger-hair and elf-ears with my skirt above my jeans.. But it was all worth it! Since Asuna doesn't wear any shoes, I wore a pair of sandals.



I hope you like this 'special' LOFT. I promise, there will be more this year! I also hope to put my story about Tsunacon online tomorrow, with some photo's and a short movie about it. :)

Look of the Week 4 | Thinking Blue

Hey everyone!

For this weeks look I wanted to go veeeeeeeeery easy, as you can see. I wanted to wear something restful, and that's where the color blue comes from. And I know I totally look like crap, this week was pretty exhausting for me. Maybe that could be the mainly reason for this look. :)

The main color is blue. As I said before, I wanted the look to be easy, peaceful, not so loaded with colors. The jeans remind me of the sky with beautiful clouds. It gives me the feeling that I'm looking outside my window and see the clouds, and think of something peaceful. And the deep blue nails that extra feeling.

Also for the rest I kept it simple: a grey t-shirt that doesn't grab much attention and some brown heeled shoes. With the slight detailed print on the t-shirt it's not a 'boring' t-shirt, but also not outstanding. The shoes I really like! It look like brown with large spots, it makes it army-ish because of the different colors that 'camouflage'. These shoes also have a hidden heel, which is still trendy these days.

So, you can say this is easywear. Great for an everydaylook if you want to blend in. I hope you liked my blog and stay tuned!

DIY | Hairstyles for Valentine's day

Hey everyone!

Valentine's day is already in three weeks! I know not everyone 'celebrates' this(like me :P) but there are many people who do! Going out for diner or having a picknick outside, no matter what we do, we want to make it perfect! Just as perfect as our hair will be that day. So for the one's who want to celebrate this with their lover or go on a date with someone they like, stay tuned because I'm showing some cute and awesome hairstyles!

As always, you can click on the name of the hairstyle to watch a tutorial. :)

PONYTAIL HAIRBOW

So this first hairstyle is really cute and simple! It's just a ponytail, but there's a bow added. Isn't that cute? This hairstyle is great if you wanna add something extra to your hairstyle. It's not difficult, but gives you an amazing result!

HALF UPDO BRAIDED

 

This hairstyle is great for long hair! And it doens't take ages for this adorable hairstyle., Only thing you need are two braids, and tie them together on the back of your head. That's really it! You also have the choice to leave your hair straight, make them wavy or curl them. An easy hairstyle with lots of different creations you can add. :)



GLAMOROUS CURLS

  Glamorous curls, who doesn't want them? Lucky you if you have beautiful girls of yourself! This one is easy-peasy, just like the others (is that a word?). Also, it's again up to you how you want them! Loose curls, beachy waves or you wanna go for the ringlets?




FLOWER HAIR BOW

This look is special, yet simple. It might take some time before you can do it perfectly, but it is definitely worth it! For the rest of your hair it's up to you! Do you want it straight or curly? Be as creative as you like. Also, you can decide yourself where you want this flowers to be. Only one, two, or you want it all over your head? So many ways to make such an incredible look right?

SIDE SWEPT FRENCH BRAID

This one is definitely the hardest! If you want something unique, this is the look for you! It's great for events such as Valentine's Day, or just any other romantic event. It looks so adorable! I tried myself already but..I failed. This really needs patience and a lot of practice! But the result is amazing. The most important part is that you can separate your hair well. If that's so, it makes it a lot easier :D

Look of the Week 3 | Minty Ice

Hey everyone!

Snow finally had the idea to come over to this place. I like snow, but the cold is killing me. And even if it hasn't shown on the picture, I was literally freezing out there, with no coat or whatsoever. But, whatever, I enjoy to make my blog so it's all worth it :).

So the look for this week is in style with the snow. When I think of winter, I think about the colors white and blue, and maybe a bit of grey (like dirty snow). So that are the colors for this week! But to pimp it up, I used my jeans with a minty color. Mint is a fresh color(and not to forget; fresh for your breath ;) ) so I thought it would be fun to combine it with this fresh weather.

I really like blouses, and this one is a really basic one. You can combine it with almost everything! That's what I like about it. Simple, but still adorable. The top I wear has something special. It's not only the print I like, but also the extra fabric around the shoulders and decollete. The top is loose and long so easy to fit.

I already talked about the pants. How can you not like the color? The pants is pretty eyecathing with the color. Furthermore, it's fits great! It's not skinny, not baggy, just perfect! The only cons I have is that it has no pockets nor it has belt loops. Then last but not least, the shoes. It are normal allstars, but just a bit thicker than the regular ones. That makes it more winterproof, because I know how terrible it is to walk with regular allstars while there is a lot of snow outside :/ .

Blouse - Yes or No
Top - Smash.
Jeans - Kiss Therapy
Allstars - Converse

I hope you liked this outfit and stay tuned!

Look of the Week 2 | Rockish Retro

Hey everyone!

So the second week already for this year, and it's going pretty fast. And yeah, I'm messing up already. If I only didn't forget to send those pictures to myself. I was taking photo's with a friend at his neighborhood. And the photo's are pretty nice with all the sun, but it was just so extremely cold! I even got sick by then. And, not to forget, this is actually the first time I show you guys my face. I really dislike to show my face to everyone, but it's just to give you an idea who makes all these posts. So I do it all for you! Be honored, or not. :P

But, for this week, or actually last week, I was more in the mood for some tough but feminine clothing. So here I wear grey jeans with small print, a red/black checked blouse and my Yoshi-t-shirt, with some dr Martens shoes.

This is an everyday-look, great for free-time and school but is also well-becoming when you're going to a house-party. The rockish things about this outfit are definitely the checked blouse with studs, paired with the shiny dr Martens. I thought it would be funny, to combine this with a retro game-figure. Yoshi is really popular in the game-world, and many find him cute, so I got attention for sure.

A regular blue jeans, or ripped jeans are great for this outfit, but I like to do it even more rockable so I chose for my favourite grey jeans. This outfit goes really well with fashion these days. Studs are really famous and so is the manly blouse combined with some tough shoes. What do you think?

I want to try to take pictures at different places, at places where the outfit looks really cool, like here; a sturdy look on the streets! So tell me what you think and stay tuned!
