November giveaway

Hi sweeties!

Well here it is- the promised giveaway! I changed a little bit, the jewellery is not from Luxedy but from Bijou Brigitte. The ones who follow me on Instagram (@elena_krumlowsky) saw that I visited my sister in Innsbruck, Austria. Of course I shopped and during my shopping trip found these beauties.

Another outfit post will come the next days, what I wore when we visited my family in Bavaria. We always meet there at All Saint's Day and go to the graveyard. Do you have such traditions?

But now the giveaway: I give away 3 things:
The first prize is the necklace, it is also the most expensive one.
Second prize is the black and white bracelet and the third prize is the gold bracelet.

Fall essentials and a (not so healthy) cupcake recipe

Hi my dears!

I had so much to do, studying for tests in economics and mathematics, and it was just too much, I didn't have time to post. Especially when the maths teacher cannot explain the subject properly.. I think, you all know that unlucky situation.

However we now have holidays, finally, and I want to show you my fall essentials for this year (including a yummy cupcake recipe. I tend to bake when it is cold outside- kind of a Christmas feeling). The cupcakes are very sweet, mainly because of the cream on the top. You can do it with less sugar, but if you like sweetness the recipe is perfect.

And I have pinterest, if you want outfit inspirations, make-up inspirations and so on, you can check it out HERE.

My essentials:

So much for my essentials, now let's move on to the nutella cupcake recipe. You can find it HERE in German.

For all of you who don't speak German:

100 g flour
20 g cocoa
140 g sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon backing powder
1 pinch of salt
40 g butter (creamy)
1 egg
120 g Nutella

for the icing:

200 g icing sugar
80 g butter (creamy)
25 ml milk
80 g Nutella

How to do the cupcakes:
Preheat the oven: 180°.
Mix the flour, cocoa, butter, sugar, backing powder and salt. Then add the milk first, then the egg and Nutella.

Fill 2/3 of the muffin baking tin, then put them in the oven for 15-20 minutes.
Take the cupcakes out of the oven and let them cool.

Optional: cut a little piece out and fill the cupcake with Nutella.

Mix all the ingredients for the icing and decorate the cupcakes with it.

Well now you're done! Enjoy it!

This is my result, I baked them with my boyfriend.

Hair routine and a DIY hair mask

Hi guys!
Today I'm going to show you my current hair routine, including a tip of a good friend of mine.
I am using the "Garnier Fructis Oil Repair 3" (in Germany) / "Ultimate Blends the Nourishing Repairer" (in the UK) / "Triple Nutrition" (in the US), the matching shampoo and conditioner. They make the hair incredibly soft and have a nice but discreet smell (I had this smell in the nose for a whole day and then recognized: it was my hair!). I had some Syoss products a few months ago and I was really disappointed: they don't make the hair easy to comb or soft (I think it was the volume product line, but I am not sure).

I am using the "Hair Repair" from Sachajuan once a week. It makes the hair softer and more brilliant. I got it in the Pochette de Janette.

A friend recommended me a DIY hair mask made of avocado and olive oil. For brilliance and soft hair you have to mix an entire avocado with some olive oil. Just keep mixing until it is kind of pulp (a bit more fluid). Leave it in your hair for one hour and a half, then rinse it well!

Hope I could help you!

Pochette de Janette

Hi darlings!

Today I'll be writing about the "Pochettes de Janette". On the launch party we got a goodie bag with the first pochette de Janette in it! I tested some products, and I am very surprised: nothing is bad. Neither the cream or serum nor the bodylotion.

In the pochette de Janette:
- a Tommy Hilfiger key chain
- a tiny shopping bag
- a fake tattoo
- a face cream, a make-up remover and a face serum (all from Syllepse Cosmetics)
- hair repair from Sacha Juan
- body lotion (anti-cellulite I think) from Garancia. It says "anti-peau de croco" which means it is        against crocodile skin
- sweets

I tested the body lotion and the hair treatment. I must say, all products look really good and expensive.

The body lotion: I really like the smell of it. I can't describe it, but I have to admit I would use the cream just because of it's smell.
However I can't say if it helps against cellulite, I am 17 and I don't have it (I dind'r recognized it anyway). The lotion makes the skin very soft.

The hair treatment: After the shower you have to massage it into the hair and rinse it out after 10 minutes. Again, the smell is amazing! And my hair is so fluffy!

Smets fashion show & Janette launch

Hi everyone!

On Thursday I have been at the launch of the new luxembourgish magazine "Janette" which took place at the Smets shop. Carmen, Carmen, Betty, Imena, Monika and I met in front of the shop and took some outfit pictures, but during the evening we also met Ivania, Anne-Sophie, Sammie and her sister Jenny.

At 8 p.m. the Smets fashion show took place, right before Emilie and the other Janettes presented their new magazine. Two very cool surprises: Emilie reserved front row places for us and we all got a goodie bag with an issue of Janette and a "Pochette de Janette". (I will make another post about it)

Janette is a new magazine which also has these "Pochettes de Janette" full with beauty products. The best: You can subscribe to get the Pochettes during the year! More information HERE.

Here some pictures of the evening:
