THE MAKE UP WE USED IN CAPE TOWN

SKIN

Primer: Glow Maximizer, Dior.
Concealer: Terrybly Densiliss 3, By Terry.
Foundation: Terrybly Densiliss 7.5, By Terry.
Powder: Wonder Powder “Gobi”, Make up Store.
Highlighter: Soft & Gentle, MAC.
Contouring: Light/Medium, Anastasia Beverly Hills.
Blush: L’Orchidee Highlighting Blush, Sisley.
Setting spray: Fix Make-up, Clarins.
Body: Goodness Body Oil, Dove. Huile Rrodigieuse Or, Nuxe (for even more golden shimmer).
Brushes: By Terry

Gabriella says: Since the base is the most important thing in the whole make up, it’s very important to do a base that lasts all day and looks flawless. Even though we were shooting in the sun for 10 hours a day in 35 degrees, I barely touched Kenzas skin during the day because the make up lasted all day. What I do is that I always mix a little bit of the Glow Maximizer in the foundation as well to get more luster, and then the Wonder Powder gives a nice finish and keeps the make up in place. So for the base: first primer in the whole face, then concealer + foundation (with a bit of primer in it). Powder all over. Then contouring and highlighting + blush. Finish with the setting spray.

EYES

Eyeprimer: Clear, Make up Store.
Eyeshadow: The nudes palette, Maybelline.
White eyepencil: Inliner Blonde, IsaDora.
Brown eyepencil: By Terry.
False lashes: All Black, Sweed Lashes (Gabbi, Beroe and Ramina also shown in the photos).
Mascara: Define-a-lash, Maybelline.
Eyebrows: Dip Brow Pomade, Anastasia + Tri Brow, Make Up Store.

Gabriella says: Kenza feels most comfortable with smokey eyes in brown/bronze colors so we more or less always go for that look. On the other hand she likes playing with different lashes! In Cape Town we only used the single lashes “All black”, but when I do her make up for galas/parties we go for “Gabbi” or “Ramina”. I use the white eyepencil on the waterline to open up the eye, and the brown eyepencil between the lashes (instead of eyeliner when we want to do a softer look) to make them look fuller.

LIPS

For these lips: Lip pencil no5 burgundy, Sisley on the whole lip + Rouge Terrybly no 101, By Terry in the middle of the lip for the ombre effect (makes the lips look fuller!)
For these lips: Rouge Terrybly no 101, By Terry.
For these lips: Rouge Pur Coutur no 70, YSL. Kenzas favorite color.
For these lips: Rouge Pur Coutur no 66 + Terrybly Lip Pencil no1, By Terry.
Lip balm: Eight hour cream, Elizabeth Arden.
Lipgloss: Phyto Lip Gloss Nude, Sisley.

GABRIELLA’S FALSE LASH TIPS

The most important thing is to choose a falses lash that is easy to work with and attach. I always use Sweed because it adapts to the shape of the eye and stays there all day.

1. Pick a false lash that suits the size of your eye and the result you’re looking for. If you have small eyes you need a smaller lash. If you have big eyes you can wear a bigger lash and still make it look natural.
2. Does the size of the false lash matches the size of your eye? If not, you can cut off a little part from the outer edge.
3. Add glue to the false lash and let it dry for 30 seconds (this is very important!) before you attach it as close as possible to your own lash line.
4. Finish with mascara and carefully rub the brush from side to side to mix your own lashes with the false lashes.

Knitted sweater from IVYREVEL (I’m wearing size 36) // Asos jeans // Nike Air Max 90 shoes // bag from Whistles

En bekväm look jag älskar att köra på under våren! Vitt och fräscht med inslag av sportigt. Och den här stickade tröjan med gråa och limegröna ränder är perfekt för det. :-)

Imorse började vi klockan 8 med möte med hela teamet. Är så peppad inför allt som händer nu att jag spricker. Vill bara tala om allt för er men snart så!! Nu sitter jag och jobbar men blir avbruten HELA tiden för brandlarmet har spårat och ringer var femte minut?!?! Och varje gång vi klär på oss och börjar gå ner för trappen så slutar det haha.. Men det slår ändå inte den gången jag och Klara var på Sturebadet (spa) och brandlarmet börjar tjuta. Då fick vi gå ut på svampen (mitt på Stureplan alltså) i BADROCKAR och tofflor, mitt i vintern. På toppen av det så var det någon som smygfotade mig och la upp på Instagram och taggade mig. Härligt haha!

// A comfy look I love going for during spring! White and fresh with a sporty touch. And this knitted sweater with grey and lime green stripes is perfect for that. :-)

This morning we started the day at 8am with a meeting with the whole team. I’m so excited about everything that’s happening right now, it feels like I’m about to burst. I just want to tell you about it….and soon I will!! Now I’m sitting here working but I’m getting interrupted all the time because the fire alarm is going crazy and is ringing every 5th minute??!?! And everytime we put on our clothes and start walking down the stairs it stops haha.. But it’s not worse than that time Klara and I was at a spa and the fire alarm start ringing. We had to go outside (in the center of the city) in ROBES and slippers, in the middle of the winter. And on top of that someone took a photo of me and posted it on Instagram and tagged me. Nice haha!

A little glimpse of our new office! Someone interrupted for a kiss haha. :-)

Hej och välkomna till vårt nya kontor! Det är fortfarande lite rörigt här (det lär det väl dock alltid vara pga alla prover och sånt, speciellt i produktion-/designrummet) så ni får bara se små delar av det än så länge. Trivs iallafall som TUSAN! Efter 3 år i en källare så gör detta ljuset mig överlycklig haha. Mani trivs också väldigt bra. :-))

Nu jäklar växer vi så det knakar. Bara den senaste veckan så har det börjat ytterligare 3 nya personer här på IVYREVEL och en av dem är…..MADDE! SÅ jäkla kul!!! Så nu kör hon halvtid för mig/bloggen och halvtid för IVYREVEL. Så peppad inför allt kul vi kommer kunna göra ihop!

Jag har på mig blus från Ginatricot, jeans från Jbrand, bälte från Topshop och hatt köpt i Kapstaden.

// Hello and welcome to our new office! It’s still a bit messy here (I guess it will always be that because of all the samples etc, especially in the production/design room) so for now I’ll only show you some parts of it. I really like it here! After 3 years in a basesment the light here makes me so happy haha. Mani also loves it here. :-))

We’re growing really fast now. The last week 3 new people started working here at IVYREVEL and one of them is….MADDE! So damn fun!!! So now she’s working part time for me/the blog and part time for IVYREVEL. So excited about all the fun stuff we’re gonna do together!

I’m wearing blouse from Ginatricot, jeans from Jbrand, belt from Topshop and hat boght in Cape Town.
