Snowflakes

Vill önskar er alla en underbar start på december månad. Jag gillar verkligen den här tiden på året fram till Jul och Nyår.
Jag startar denna månad med en vintrig fest sminking. Jag hade riktigt kul när jag gjorde denna sminkning men dock inte lika roligt när jag skulle fotografera den. Det var så dåligt ljus ute och egentligen tycker jag inte att någon av bilderna blev riktigt bra. Men så kan det gå när det är grått och regnigt.
Ha nu en fortsatt bra dag!

I want to wish you all a fantastic start of December. I really like this time of the year until Christmas and New Year.
I kick off this month with a winter party make up. I had really fun creating it but less fun taking the pictures of it. It was such a bad light outside and I actually don’t like how the pictures turned out. But hey, that’s how it can go when it’s gray and rainy outside.
Have a wonderful day now!

Voglio augurarvi tutti un bellissmo inizio di dicembre. Mi piace davvero questo periodo dell’anno fino a natale a capodanno.
Per iniziare vi mostro questo trucco invernale che potrebbe essere adatto a una delle tante feste natalizie. Mi sono davvero divertita creando questo trucco.

Ma è così quando è grigio e piove fuori.
Vi auguro una bella giornata!
