Finally.

So after this whole birthday weekend, I finally manage to write, what I bought and did.
Since my skintone is pretty light, KIKO didn't have the BB-cream I wanted, BUT (and great thanks to the girls there) they provided me with a free makeover and I decided to buy the green skintone corrector, which really does wonders on my skin. I'm waiting for the shop to get my BB-cream, otherwise I'll buy the foundation, powder and everything else that nice young woman used on me.
Since saturday I did the shopping, plus it was my birthday, sunday I had everything ready for mum's birthday.
I made her an Oscar out of modelling chocolate and golden luster dust, we gifted her perfume and flowers and we had a nice day out eating cake.

SOOO excited *Q*

Tomorrow I will buy the BB-cream from Kiko. I wonder if they have a good shade for me.
Ohh and I'm quite happy to say, that once I started seeing Daan, I instantly felt better. He's a very busy guy, but he's really lovable c;

BB-creams

Along while ago I saw people review BB-creams. As it was then, they haven't been THAT popular among germans here. I know Asians use them alot and love the feel.
So what's a BB-cream? It is moisturizer, foundation, concealer and sunblock. Which makes it perfect for people to use it on a regular basis.
I will try Kiko's BB-cream this months, since I wanted a cheap alternative to the MAC product, which also comes close to my pale skintone.
I hope it works c;

Update.

So in the end it didn't work.. I guess I should go back to taking a long time to trust someone..
I'll just concentrate on drawing and calming down.

Once upon a time..

If you love fairytales and all sorts of fantasy stories, the series "Once upon a time" is something you should watch. I am currently nearly finished and I can say, it is simply amazing. The detail and interlocking storyline plus a good part of evil/bad influence makes it worth watching.

Do you know..

Do you know this feeling, when everything seems alright, but suddenly your life gets turned upside down? Do you know how much I despise those days? How empty I feel, when something like that happens? It is not only on an emotional basis. It's mental pain. Like being trapped in a place you love - forever. You get bored, you want to break out, but there is nowhere to go. I have never studied mental or psychological cases, but I do realize, that I feel trapped. My mindset turns from adoration to hatred.
They say home is where the heart is, but what if my heart wasn't feeling home at all? The only solution is to find a home for my heart. I am happy I did find one. But if my heart and body stay disconnected for so long, damage might be inflicted. Conntecting those two is a great relief.
Walking my own path - is what I would like to proudly say soon. Currently I am too dependant. But I want to change. And I will.

Update.

Lately I felt a bit down, so I helped my bro go shopping and modeled a little diorama with him for a friend.
Doing things like that really relaxes me and listening to my new favorite song helps alot.

Us.

We fake
a shake
We make
and take
We live
still give
We grant
a wish
We cry
tears dry
We try
so wry
We mend
what bent
We rent
our tent
We smoke
you choke
We look
and book
We took
your cook
We smile
a while
'Cause damn
we rock.

Dedicated to my boyfriend. I love you, Niko.

Helplessly lost to...

Hello, I am Alex, 23 years old and I am a cake-a-holic.
I think this opening phrase sums it up pretty well. My love for art became an obsession for cakes. I love making cakes, I love Tumblr-ing about them, talking to people about cake-ideas and watching cooking shows. To me, art is not only painting on a canvas. Art is expressing your creativity and you can do exactly that on every kind of canvas, from paper to walls to cakes.
How little your achievement be, it is still something to be proud of. The first time I worked with fondant, it turned out to be such a challenge, when in shows people worked so smoothly with it, but yes, it needs practise to handle something like that so easy.

Here's my first fondant cake:
