iHerb favoritter

Her er mine olje favoritter fra iHerb.com.

OLJER
Druekjerneolje fra Aura Cacia. Denne har jeg brukt både i ansikt og kropp. Lukter ingenting og trekker raskt inn i huden.

Tamanuolje. Ble anbefalt denne til å bruke i ansikt. Skal hjelpe mot arr og fin for uren hud. Har ikke brukt den lenge nok til å si om den hjelper mot arr. Men er veldig fin på huden min, blir ikke fet, men trekker raskt inn.

Lavendelolje. Lavendelduft er fantastisk. Denne bruker jeg til å blande i olje til ansikt og kropp og til rengjøring. Trenger ikke mange dråpene.

Nature's Alchemy Rosemarin essential oil. Kan blandes i fuktighetskrem eller shampoo. Bruker den også til å lage min egen allround spray til å vaske med.

Pepperminteolje. Elsker peppermintelukt! Denne har jeg smurt på tinningene for å bli kvitt hodepine, funker kjempebra! Brukes også til hudprodukter.

Favoritt nettbutikk: iHerb


Jeg elsker å handle på nettet. Kan sitte i timevis å lete etter spennende produkter. En av favorittene innen helse og mat er iHerb.com. De holder til i USA. Lave priser og gedigent utvalg av produkter. De har matvarer, kosttilskudd, hudpleie, sminke og oppvaskmiddel. Jeg handler mest skjønnhetsprodukter og er svært fornøyd.

I am not the only one who loves this online store!

I live in Norway and things can be quite expensive here. Well not really since we have good salary compared to the prices and so on. But it is nice to save money and try something new.

iHerb is defiantly one of my favorite stores. I have bought lots of fun stuff from here. I know a lot of other norwegians using this site. iHerb is a company in USA that sells everything from skin care, groceries, hair care to vitamins.

Their prices are good and the selection is massive! I have mostly bough beauty products and some groceries. Most of their products are organic, GMO free, no animal testing. They have a wide selection for allergies such as dairy free, gluten free, nut free and so on.

They have excellent costumer service, I never had a problem with them. It is also really easy to order. I often look at all their products and put all the interesting things in my wish list. Its really handy to have a wish list when you want to save products for the next shopping round.

The shipping rates are sometimes changed, but all in all they are fairly low if you watch the weight. They also have 20% off some selected brands every wednesday, so keep an eye on those for a good deal!

Beauty tip!

I do not like to waste money or products. I also do not like to produce a lot of trash, I like the environment. So I have a little tip fro you, it might be old or well known but I want to share it just in case.

Instead of using a cotton pad to remove makeup or put on toner, buy reusable cotton pads! I found mine on ebay and they are actually reusable nursing pads, haha. I got a pack with 12 pads, so I use 6 of them and then wash them in a washing net while I use the other 6. By doing this I always have clean ones. I have been doing this for a while and they are still as good as new. I don't even have to wash them with whites.

Here is the seller I used on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/271564478417?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

If you do a quick google search you find many ways to make them yourself and other pages to order from.

Do you have any smart beauty tips?

Review Linda Johansen Microfiber gloves

After reading about people using microfiber cloths to wash their face and even take off make up, I needed to try it myself.

I found a Norwegian brand, so I did not have to order from abroad and wait forever.

I got the Linda Johansen Microfiber cloths. There is one large glove and two small gloves. These are said to gentle exfoliate skin and remove makeup with just water, how nice is that?

After using them daily for two weeks I must say I really like them. It is soft and gentle, my skin feels so soft afterwards. And for removing make up it really does work with just water! I really hate to take off my makeup at night and often just avoid makeup as much as possible. I also hate makeup wipes, they sting my eyes and skin and just makes me red. But these are so gentle, no need to rub over and over again to remove mascara. Which is good since the eye area is so sensitive.

I use one side each time so that I use the glove two times before washing them. The large glove is nice to use in the shower. You can hand wash them with some soap or throw them in the washer up to 60 degrees.

I highly recommend these!

Vitacost order



I love to try new things and this time I wanted to try some new foods. I love online shopping and other countries have so much more fun stuff than the supermarkets where I live.

I ordered from vitacost.com. A health store with so many great products, food, skin care, hair care and vitamins.





I think ordinary pasta with wheat is boring and has no nutrients. So I found these fun alternatives. Quinoa pasta, Buckwheat pasta, Sweet potato and Buckwheat noodles, Quinoa spaghetti, Buckwheat ramen noodles and hemp seeds. It's all organic, which I do not mind at all! All of it is gluten free for those who have to avoid that.
Hopefully it will taste good and spice up my food life, haha.

The prices are good, way better than in Norway unfortunately. The shipping is 7,99 which is not too bad if you get a discount. I always google for discount codes and are often lucky to find some.

Review Goldwell Straight Sleek Perfection Thermal Spray Serum



I have long thin hair that easily gets tangled. which is unfortunate since I am very I hair sore (no idea what to call it in english). I often have my hair in a braid to avoid tangles, but it is nice to have other hair styles. Luckily I have found a hair product that actually works! It is called Goldwell Straight Sleek Perfection Thermal Spray Serum. It is mostly made for protecting when straitening your hair, but I very rarely do that. But it works so well on making my hair soft and shiny, and so easy to brush.

The spray is very good, it manages to distribute the product evenly and not just one wet spot in the hair. The smell is also kind of nice, if you don't breathe in too much, haha.  

I highly recommend this to anybody who wants soft manageable hair and thermal protection.

App recommandation




Since I am trying to find a skin care routine for my skin, I need to keep track of the progress. I randomly found this app where you take e picture of your face. Then you rate your skin from 1 to 5.
1  "Yikes"
2 "Seen worse"
3  Not to shabby
4 "Looking good"
5 "Awesome"

You can then compare all the days and look at pictures to see how the skin has changed for better or worse. I think this is great to see the progress and where the blemishes are coming up.
