postheadericon Reserved Beauty / Kauneutta varattu



Reserved Beauty

Not using lot's of them myself, I still enjoy cosmetics a lot. Mostly because the bottles and jars are so pretty, and because advertising is visually so amazing. I also like the trend of using actors in beauty ads, they usually are very beautiful and have that extra something in their persona.

Normally I don't read those small printed and folded notes which follow with cosmetic buys, but this time I found line "Reserved beauty" in cosmetic company Sensai's papers and wanted to read it trough.

They say magnificent lines, making it sound like it is never too late. Now I have made reservation to keep my youthness and beauty in our bath room (stored in those beautiful white cosmetic bottles). Amazing stuff, I've already used first bottle. But who writes those lyrics for these products?







Kauneutta varattu

Vaikken hirveästi käytä kosmetiikkaa, pidän siitä paljon. Pääasiassa kai ihastuttavien pullojen ja purnukoiden vuoksi, lisäksi visuaalisesti upeiden mainosten takia. Nykytrendi näyttelijöiden käyttämisestä mainoksissa on minusta kiinnostavaa, koska heillä on kauneuden lisäksi se jokin.

Yleensä en jaksa lukea niitä pieniprinttisiä taiteiltuja lappusia, joita kosmetiikkaostosten mukana tulee. Tällä kertaa kuitenkin huomasin tekstin "Kauneutta varauksetta" kosmetiikkayhtiö Sensain papereissa ja luin koko litanian.

Sehän kuulostaa upealta, kuin sanoisi ettei koskaan ole liian myöhäistä. Nyt minulla on siis varattu nuorekkuutta ja kauneutta purkeissa kylpyhuoneessamme. Se voide muuten on tosi ihanaa, minulla on jo toinen puteli menossa, mutta kuka lurittelee nuo sanoitukset noiden tuotteiden lappusiin?

postheadericon Lack of taste somehow tastes good

Lately I've been inspired of many unstylish things, such as rapper Nicki Minaj. Most of the time she looks like an ungly doll, but lately also like a beautiful barbie in different variety of packages.

Nicki Minaj signature perfume bottle Pink Friday actually it looked very nice. 


Madonna was from the beginning, and still is often, rated unstylish based on her looks and salacious attitude, but she has influenced strongly on fashion since the 80's. When I first saw Lady Gaga's Poker Face video, it was totally cheap disco music for me, after some months and after other songs I sang along and was admiringly browsing Gaga's special looks in net. In Gaga's gigs girls of all ages in different cities are wearing something gagaish.

I even was about to buy a cute hair bow inspired by Gaga.

After all it might be that those tastless and unstylish are the coolest thing you can imagine just after you get to used to it. For younger generation sucking in influneces comes as natural as chipping Pepsi Max but for us others it is inspiring just after a while and then tastes really sweet.
