Review | Maria Ã…kerberg Foundation, eyeliner and hand cream

Friday, 8 May 2015


I recently went home to Sweden and did some shopping. I was looking forward to trying Maria Ã…kerberg make-up and I was not disappointed.

Maria Ã…kerberg is a small Swedish brand using organic Swedish produced products trying to educate their consumers into building a more sustainable future together.
This is what I got.

MÃ… FOUNDATION COLD

MÃ… FOUNDATION COLD 
Anyone else hate buying foundation? Every time I need a new foundation I can never get it right. Even with help from a shop assistant. Either I'm too orange or it's too pale and I look like a ghost.
So with Maria Ã…kerberg and the fact she only has 3 different shades of foundation I thought there's no way. But the cold is perfect for my skin colour. Maybe it's just my Swedish complexion that all these brands can't get right, but Maria Ã…kerberg got it on point. I had to go back and get a second bottle just in case I run out before I go back to Sweden.

The foundation blends really nice on to the skin and looks really natural. It doesn't feel too heavy, you know some foundations feels like you've got a mask on.

MÃ… EYELINER CLACK

MÃ… EYELINER CLACK 
This is the best eyeliner I've ever used much better than Mac and all those brands everyone raving about. It is so smooth to apply and sits really well for a long time. My eyeliner always smudges and drops and make me look like I got punched. So to finally find an eyeliner that doesn't do that makes me so happy.


MÃ… HAND CREAM BEAUTIFUL 
My hands was getting really dry so I ended up buying this hand cream. It solved my problem and is actually a decent hand cream. It smells nice with orange and cardamom.

Swedish readers to tell me what's your favourites by Maria Ã…kerberg are so I can stock up when I go next. And for everyone else tell me what your favourite brands are? Or do you rather join me to Sweden next time?

Review | Jåsön sun sport

Review | Jåsön sun sport

We are slowly moving into summer, sunshine and it is time to find a sunscreen. It's not only for when you go on sun holiday but also needed in England. It's important to protect your skin from dangerous UV lights. When you spend time in the sun it increases your risk of skin cancer and early skin ageing. So protecting yourself is crucial.

I use Jåsön sun sport SPF 45 as I use it when I'm out running and need a stronger and water resistant lotion as I want it to protect me even when I sweat and also perfect for beach holiday when jumping in the sea as well. Hopefully, there'll be a holiday sometime this year.

Jåsön is like the dinosaur of natural hair and skin care. They've been around for a long time. Long before it got popular to be natural and organic and they are a well-established brand, so compared to the dinosaurs I don't think Jåsön is going anywhere.

Jåsön sunscreen is free from parabens, SLS, petrolatum, artificial colours and phthalates. So not only protecting your skin on the outside but is not dangerous for your inside either. As the skin is our biggest organ and absorbs anything you put on it, it's so important to stay away from products full of toxins.

Review | Jåsön sun sport

The first things I noticed about the sun lotion was the bright orange packaging and the smell. It smells so nice. I think it smells a bit of coconut and holiday. I have tried many different types of sunscreens in my days and no other smells as good as this one. It feels nice on the skin as well.

I've used it for many of my runs lately and hopefully will bring it on holiday soon.

Do you use sunscreen? Which one do you like?
