New haircut!

Hi Gurls,

I really wish I'd known that cutting off my hair would be such a great journey. I was so unnecessary scared, thinking I would never like it or that it would make me feel less feminine or nobody else would appreciate my brave step. Well guys, I haven't felt so confidant in my entire life! Weeks before my appointment I looked up short hairstyles to get a certain idea of what I wanted. I asked friends and family what they thought I should do and even did my fair share of undos trying to see what it would look like. If I had known what kind of impact chopping it off would have to my self-esteem I would've done it ages ago! I feel much more sexy, beautiful and people around me notice the chance in confidence.

My lovely pixie!


I would recommend this to anyone willing to cut it or even thinking about chopping it off. I went to Salon B in Almere. I had such a great experience there and my hairdresser was amazing! She cut it excectly how I wanted it. Do you guys have any questions for me or videos you wanna see regarding my pixie? Please don't hesitate to ask me anything!
See you soon my loves,

kisses,

Stay at home date night make up look

Hi my loves,

Last Sunday was my husband and mine 3rd anniversary. On Saturday we celebrated by going on a city trip to Antwerp. We had so much fun! I will post some of the pics we took later. Sunday we wanted to do a stay at home date night. So I figured why not record a tutorial of the make up I wore! I took out all of the candles we had in home and baked my hubbies favourite cookies. I hope you guys had a lovely weekend and please check out the video I made :)

Love,

Eyebrow 101: Shaping your brows!


Hi Guys!

From very early age I was intrigued by the shape of eyebrows. I saw my mom plucking hers, watched friends do theirs and saw all those celebrities with perfectly shaped brows. Ever since the day I started doing my own brows I'd gotten many questions on how I did it and they got really bad over time so I figured to do a tutorial on how to pluck your own brows!

Step one:



With a spatula or your tweezers determine the shape of your brows. You can do this by putting it against your nose and along the inner corner of your eye, then draw a line with a liner. Do the same thing on the other corner of your eye as shown in the picture and draw a line again. This should work as your guide. 

Step 2




With a brow brush or a spoolie brush your hairs in the direction of the natural growth. Remove everything outside those lines. So that you have a clear frame to work with. 

Step three


Determine where you want your arch to be. For my shape of brow just finding the highest part of my brow and drawing a line was enough, but you can always get help with one of those shaping stencils. (If you want me to do a tutorial on it, comment below) Remove every hair under that line and don't forget: Never pluck above your eyebrow!

Step four


This is the final result. Now you beautify yourself and fill in your brows if needed :) 

With make-up and filled in brow.



I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and I hope I made it a little easier for you. Please don't mind the photo's of me without make-up! If you have any questions please comment below!

Love,

That Dutch Gurl

Tip:

To reduce some of the pain, you can put a metal spoon (ice works just as well if you dry the area completely before you tweeze) in the freezer for about an hour so that it is completely cold. Place that over the area you want to tweeze so that it decreases the feeling.
