Saturday: Mybeautybox and Prom

Saturday was the day of my prom.
I woke up at 10 and started my day with some breakfast. While sitting there my dad came in with my first Mybeautybox. If you don't know, Mybeautybox is a subscription box with beauty related stuff in it. You usually get 4 products that are either samples or full size. They cost 129 kr a month buy you get it cheaper if you pay for 3, 6 or 12 months at once. I ordered a 3 month subscription where you get one box a month. I must say, i was pretty happy for my first box!




 I got a set of Eylure false lashes, a Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure nail polish in a blueish gray color called Gray by Gray, a Rimmel Glam Eyes Eyeliner in a purple color, a BodyNordic Kiss & Makeup Lip Gloss in brown, a sample of BodyNordic's protecting hand and nail cream and a Easysun tanning towelette.

The only thing i couldn't use was the liner, because of the color. Purple is not a good match for me, specially not when you have blue eyes, then you need some gold or bronze to compliment the color. I have already tried the hand cream and it is very moisturizing cream. There might be like 3 more uses in the sample, so it is not a small one, even though it is just a foil packet. The lip gloss is really pretty. I wore it at my prom and i loved the color. the color was very natural and shimmery but so pretty. The nail polish is more like a fall color, but i have tried it on one of my nails.

The value of my box was 338,82 kr and i only paid 129 for it. I am really happy about it! This box's theme was Fast Glam, so it was make up for women on the go. I like this concept and i am looking forward to my next box!

After looking at my box, i took a long shower and after that i started on my makeup. I know a lot of girls pay their hairdresser to do their hair and makeup, but i don't have that kind of money and i figured that i could do it myself, so i did. I used about 2 hours on my hair and makeup but that was because i messed up a couple of times and had to redo it. But it all went well and i was ready in time for us driving to Copenhagen where we were going to dance Les Lanciers.

When we got into Copenhagen there was this huge demonstration because of 4/20 which is also national marijuana day. So there was a demonstration for legalizing marijuana and they were all over the space where we were going to dance. Luckily they left for a walk around the city 15 minutes before we had scheduled to dance, so it all worked out fine.

 That is me, standing in my prom dress with trash and marijuana all over the place. It all worked out great, except for the low music so we couldn't hear when to do what, but it was alright.
After the dance, we took a group photo on the stairs in front of Copenhagen's town hall ad then we walked to the restaurant where we were going to eat. It was this Turkish place called Sultan Place and the food was great. I don't think anyone walked away from the restaurant hungry anyways. After a couple of hours we walked down to the place where out bus was going to pick us up. We had rented a partybus and that was probably the most fun thing i have ever tried with my class. We drove out to the little mermaid my the ocean and there we had more pictures taken. after that we just drove a bit around in Copenhagen while listening to loud music and drinking alcohol. We all  had fun, but because of all the alcohol that was consumed we had to stop twice in 2 hours to get to a bathroom.. The driver did not like us at the end of the ride..

When we got to the school, we walked up the red carpet and got even more pictures taken. All the pictures..! Then we were going to dance in front of our parents in the gym. That went a lot better than in Copenhagen because we could hear the music and then it was a lot easier, but unfortunately i stepped in my dress and almost fell over, but i didn't and i just danced on. So embarrassing! The rest of the night i only danced the Lanciers dances and not on the dancefloor between the dances because i was afraid someone would step on my dress and ruin me. But i danced all the dances and then i went home and straight to bed.. after i had removed my makeup, gotten out of the dress, fixed my hair and brushed my teeth. We had actually gotten an offer at a disco to get in for free and there was going to be some cheap drinks, but i was not in the mood and certainly not in my prom dress! When i got home i got a call from Simon and we talked a bit before i went to bed. All in all, a great day!
