Acadermia 2015

I helgen gick Acadermia av stapel på Stockholms mässan i Älvsjö. I år gick mässan samtidigt som Allt för hälsa och Fitness festivalen som en del av Fit for life WKND. Jag passade på att besöka Acadermia igår för en chans att prata med utställare och möta branschfolk (inte inom den bransch jag jobbar utan folk inom skönhetsbranschen). 

Daisy Beauty tog hand om press och bloggare i sitt fina Press Coffice som bjöd på en trevlig möjlighet att vila fötterna och få sig en kaffe, lite vatten, kokosvatten eller ett glas bubbel, möta nya och gamla bekanta och självklart kunde man även bläddra i senaste numret av Daisy Beauty. 

På Acadermia ligger mycket fokus på skönhetsbehandlingar och fillers och sådant men i år var det fint uppblandat med andra utställare och i år väldigt mycket naturlig skönhet vilket känns trevligt. Var kanske inte jättemycket nytt men jag hittade en del märken som jag inte var bekant med sedan tidigare vilket alltid är roligt. 

 Jag hade släpat med mig min man till Acadermia igår så han fick hjälpa till att agera fotograf och hjälpa mig att bära alla påsar som skulle med hem. 

Förutom utställare bjöd Acadermia även på en hel del seminarie och annat spännande. Gårdagen var verkligen intressant och givande. Jag var helt slut idag så dagen har mest ägnats åt att försöka smälta alla intryck från igår. 

Det blev mycket bilder tagna igår så förbered er för en bildbomb här nedan.




Acadermia took place this weekend at Stockholms mässan located in Älvsjö just outside of Stockholm. This year the fair occurred at the same time and place as "Allt för hälsa" and "Fitness festivalen" as a part of Fit for life WKND. I visited Acadermia yesterday to chat with the brands present and meet people from the beauty industry.

Daisy Beauty took care of the press and the bloggers in their nice Press Coffice and offered a nice opportunity to rest your feet and get a cup of coffee, some water, coconut water or a glass of sparkling wine, meet up with new and old friends and of course: you could read the latest volume of the Daisy Beauty magazine.

Usually Acadermia puts a lot of focus on beauty treatments, fillers and so on but this year there was a nice mix with other kind of exhibitioners. It really felt nice that quite a lot of natural beauty were present. There were at least a few new brands that I haven't seen before and that is always nice.

I brought my husband as company to Acadermia yesterday he could help me by taking some photos and carry home all the bags.

Apart from the exibitioners at Acedermia there were also quite a lot of seminars and other exiting events. Yesterday was really an interesting day. Today I am really tired and the day has mostly been used to digest all the information from yesterday. 

Prepare yourself for a the photo cavalcade to come.

 

I

There where a lot of companies exhibiting at Acadermia this weekend. My first stop for the day was Gilda. Where you could look at and buy their products or get one of their treatments right there.

Next I stopped by Color Wow and talked to Giles Robinson, Global Director of Training & Education for Color Wow and Senior John Frieda Salon hair Stylist. He demonstrated their Color Wow root cover up for me on some other Academia visitors. According to him my roots didn't need any cover up so I guess I'd have to thank my hair stylist for doing such a wonderful job with my bleach cause it's at least 7-8 months since I colored my hair.

This is what the Color Wow root cover up look like. It looks a bit like an eyeshadow but it sticks to the hair so you can touch it and it still stays on the hair. It also suppose to hold through rain. You just apply it to the hair with the little brush and then it washes of when you wash your hair. Smart and easy root cover up for between visits and the hair salon.

I also stopped by M Picaut and talked to the lovely owner of the brand Mette Picaut. Mette is just the sweetest person and it's lovely to talk to someone that's that engaged and really burning for what they do. I love their new Hydra Miracle serum that they released earlier this fall. A review will soon be up on the blog. Yesterday I got their Calming Cocoon Cream with me. It's a barrier cream that feels very rich and lovely and I'm looking forward to trying it now when the air is starting to get cold and dry.

This was a hair product line that I haven't seen before. I love the sleek and luxury design and Gold smells just lovely. I kind a want all of these products just because of the lemon-melon scent that's just amazing! The hair oil felt very light so I think it would work even on fine hair like mine.

This is the Gold hair treatment that according to the man working in their booth also is great as shave cream. Haven't tried myself so I can't vouch for that.

I checked out Kardashian Beauty's hair line that comes in black and gold packing. I tried the hair oil on my hand and it felt a bit heavy so I'm not sure it would work that well on my hair. The Gold hair oil was much lighter.

Another brand that was new to me. Miss w. This is a French Natural brand and I'm curious about their Micellar water.

Miss W also had some nail polishes in cute small bottles.

Nail polish heaven! Nubar had so many shades to choose from.

Some nail design swatches at Nubar.

Nubar also had plenty of glitters for nail art to choose from. I didn't buy any glitter or nail polish but I did buy two swatching wheels.

puroBIO was another brand that was new to me. It's an Italian organic brand that had lot of lovely makeup. I really like that they had lots of colors to choose from. Not long ago I felt that most organic makeup that was being sold in Sweden only come in earthy natural shades.

Did some swatching with the puroBIO products. I got some products with me to try and I have to say I'm looking forward to trying them. Felt very lovely to swatch.

I also visited Rapsodine. This is their original line that I haven't tried before but I really like the Rapsodine Eco Raps products that I have tried before.

At Minus 417 I checked out this Recovery Mud Mask. The products from Minus 417 contains minerals from the Dead sea and this mud mask contains so much minerals that you don't wash it off. You remove it with a magnet. I got to try and it was cool to see. I know I've seen a mask like this before but I can't remember where....

C/O Gerd is a Swedish brand from Jokkmokk which is really far up in the north of Sweden. I know about this brand but I haven't had time to try it before and when I came buy the owner was buzy with other visitors so I never got a chance to talk to her.

They are starting to get a quite wide range of products.

Here you can see their hair care range

The product contains Swedish ingredients like blueberries and cloudberries.

Another Swedish brand. Rosenserien. They also had a range of products for men. My hubby liked the scent of their deodorant. Lucky for him I did get that deodorant with me to try so at least I got one thing for hubby home with me too.

Dermosil is a Finish brand that's big in Finland but not that well known here in Sweden. Looking forward to try out their products.            

I also stopped by Annearie Börlind Natural beauty.

The brands most famous product might be the Beauty Pearls. Serums with shimmering pearls based on alga and hyaluronic acid. It contains a combination of alga extract from amongst other a green pearl like alga that's also called botanical caviar. The pearl like alga is seen on the packing and the product brochures. The Beauty Pearls serums is available in Sensitive, Moisture and Regeneration. 

I've tried Maria Åkerberg Skincare before but not their makeup that's showed here.

Makeup from Maria Åkerberg beautifully displayed.

I've already picked up three different beauty advent calendars for this year so I'm guessing that's enough. If I hadn't I wouldn't have said no to this calendar from Babor containing their beauty ampules.

More products from Babor beautiful displayed in a Christmas three shaped display.

Fontant Contarini Cosmetics is a Italian brand that's new to me. It's only available in beauty salons in Sweden and it sounded like they didn't have a list of salons carrying the brand at the moment. They had a lot of lovely nail polishes.

At Cuccio the display made me long for some coctails

I'm quite sure it wouldn't be a good idea to drink these though

But they where lovely to look at

I haven't tried anything from Cuccio before but I do have some nail polishes that I'm planning to try out soon

More Cuccio

Cuccio Venice Beach

Cuccio Sweet as sugar!

Cuccio Royale. These where definitely my favorit Cuccio collection.

Cuccio Nudetrals for the once that prefer neutrals.

CaféCuccio

Cuccio #best night ever. Ok I really like this sparkly collection too.

Cuccio Neons

Cuccio Pastels

Me and my messy hair do is looking at Cuccio Nail polishes

Beautiful makeup from Palina.

Filorga was also represented at Acadermia. There you could buy these little travel kits that's perfect for travel or just for trying out a new brand. Since it's a bit expensive it can be nice to try out smaller sizes of the products first to see if you like them before buying full size products.

Of course I stopped by CND Nordic. I love CND Vinylux. You could get your nails done there but I didn't. I was wearing CND Vinylux in Glacial Mist from their Aurora collection though. I will of course show you proper swatches of this beauty.

The Press Coffice runned by Daisy Beauty.

Here I and other press and blogger could rest out feet and have a glass of Champagne with the wonderful people from Daisy Beauty that really was making sure we had everything we needed.

A makeup mirror in the Press Coffice. My hubby took this photo. He was saying that I should have one of these. Yes, I have the best husband. Getting dragged around while I'm looking at beauty products probably wouldn't be his first choice on the list of what to do on a Saturday.;-)

They had a Fantasy Nail contest and here they are working on the hand models

Another model getting her nails done

The models had makeup matching their fantasy nails in the making

These photos where taken when they had just gotten started on the nails

LED light nails. Well I'm not sure it's LED but at least it's some kind of light and I think it looks like LED light.

These where one of the more normal looking fantasy nails the other once where much more crazy

Knitting nails. How cool are these?

More fantasy nails

Flower nails. Might be a bit unpractical to where these to the office.

One of the models getting prepared

Judging time. Kicki Norman from Daisy Beauty judging the knitted nails that come to be the winner.

I think the booth that had the longest line yesterday was Jamela

Everyone wanted to look at their golden facial masks. You could try their gold eye masks if you wanted so many where running around with gold masks under their eyes. I didn't try them at Acadermia yesterday but don't worry you'll get see them here on the blog cause I got both the golden facial mask and the golden eye masks with me to try at home.

It was a good thing I had hubby with me to help me carry all of my bags home. And since many of you use to ask me to show you what I get at these thing.... well the next photo are for you.

Here are the products I got to take home with me.

Dermaceutic Advanced Cleanser

Dermaceutic Advanced Cleanser

Vad: Rengöringsfoam

Pris: 345 kr/150 ml

Om produkten: Dermeceutics Advanced cleanser lanserades på svenska marknaden nu under hösten. Dermaceutic Laboratoire beskriver produkten som en effektiv och mild rengöringsfoam som löser makeup och reglerar talgöverskott. Dermaceutic Advanced cleanser ska vara lämpad för alla hudtyper, även känslig, och ge huden en ren, fräsch och återfuktad känsla. 

Ingredienser och dess egenskaper: Xylitol - Förhindrar uttorkning samt ger en återfuktad hud genom att främja och kontroller hudens vattenflöde. Zink - Reglerar talgproduktionen och är bakteriedödande. Huden blir klar och balanserad. Urea- Optimal fuktgivande ingrediens för epidermis. Huden blir mjuk, slät, smidig och återfuktad. Glycerin- Vegetabiliskt ursprung. Ger en återfuktande skyddande film. 

Min åsikt: Jag gillar verkligen Dermeceutics Advanced cleanser. Dermeceutics Advanced cleanser ser ut ungefär som vatten i flaskan och kommer ut som ett lätt härligt skum. Den har en lätt och fräsch, lite tvålig, doft. Dermeceutics Advanced cleanser tar bort makeup riktigt effektivt, även ögonmakeup, men du kan behöva köra mer än ett varv för att få bort ögonmakeupen. Jag använder dock oftast en eye makeup remover först men det är trevligt att veta att den ändå klarar av att ta bort även ögonmakeup. Den svider inte i ögonen och känns otroligt mild och trevlig. Den här rengöringen fungerar bra på min känsliga hud och irritererar inte och lämnar ingen torr känsla efter sig. Huden känns enbart ren och fräsch efter tvätt. Dermeceutics Advanced cleanser är kanske inte helt billig men jag tycker att den helt klart är värd sitt pris. 

Slutsats: Dermeceutics Advanced cleanser är ett otroligt trevligt nytillskott bland rengöringar på marknaden. Det är verkligen en mild och effektivt rengöringsfoam. Ett stort plus för att den faktiskt tar bort makeup så bra som den gör. Jag älskar den milda fräscha doften och att den inte känns uttorkande. Lite dyr men man får en fantastiskt trevlig produkt för priset. 

Dermeceutics Advanced cleanser finns att köpa hos bl.a. Skincity. Du kan även gå in på Dermeceutics svenska sida (dermeceutic.se) och kontakta dem för information om närmaste klinik eller salong som säljer produkterna och gör behandlingar.

Dermaceutic Advanced Cleanser

What: Foam cleanser

About the product: Dermaceutic Advanced Cleanser was released in Sweden during this fall. Dermaceutic Laboratoire describes the product as an effective and sensitive cleansing foam that effectively removes make-up and excess sebum. Advanced Cleanser is recommended for all skin types including sensitive and dehydrated skin and are supposed to make the skin clean and hydrated and restore the skin balance. Active Ingrediences: Xylitol - Anti-dehydration agent which promotes and controls water flow, and improves the appearance of skin micro relief for perfectly hydrated and smoothed skin. Zinc - This anti-seborrheic active (associated with the penetration vector L-PCA) improves the appearance of oily skin and has an anti-microbial action, helping skin to regain clarity. Urea - Optimal moisturizing agent for the epidermis which removes scales from the skin’s surface and restores suppleness. Glycerin - Hygroscopic substance of vegetable origin which provides a hydrating and protective film and removes scales from the skin’s surface.

My opinion: I really like Dermaceutic Advanced cleanser. In the bottle Dermaceutic Advanced cleanser looks kind of like water and turns to a light lovely foam when exiting. It has a light and fresh scent, a little bit like soap. Dermaceutic Advanced cleanser removes make up quite effectively, even eye make up, but you may need to do the procedure more then once to get rid of all eye make up. Usually I use an eye make up remover first, but it is nice to know that the product can handle eye make up. The product doesn't sting in the eyes and feels incredible sensitive and nice. This cleansing works well on my sensitive skin. It isn't very cheap but I think the product is worth it's price.

Conclusion: Dermaceutic Advanced cleanser is an incredible nice addition to the cleanser market. It is a really sensitive and effective cleansing foam. It receives an extra point because it removes make up as effective as it does. I love the light and fresh scent and the fact that it doesn't feels dehydrating. A little bit expensive but the money gives you an incredibly nice product.

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Micellar vatten

Biodermas produkter har först i år introducerats på den svenska marknaden men deras micellar vatten är otroligt populärt och jag vet att många skönhetsfantaster har passat på att shoppa på sig den när de själva befunnit sig i Frankrike och låtit andra köpa med sig den hem åt dem. Nu slipper vi som sagt det eftersom det numera går att köpa Bioderma micellar vatten även i Sverige. Du hittar Biodermas produkter på närmsta Apoteket AB.

För er som inte vet vad micellar vatten är ska jag kanske försöka ge mig på en kort förklaring. Micellar vatten är inte ett vanligt ansiktsvatten eller toner som används som sista steg i rengöringen utan ett micellar vatten innehåller någon form av laddad partiklar som fungera så att de drar till sig smuts, vatten och fett. Du behöver inget vatten och den behöver inte sköljas bort. Ta lite micellar vatten på en bomullsrondell bara för att rengöra ansiktet.

 Bioderma Sensibio H2O

Vad: Micellar vatten

Pris: 139 kr/250 ml

Om produkten: Bioderma Sensibio H2O micellar vatten är oparfymerat och ska passa för känslig hy. Ska fungera för att ta bort makeup.

 Min åsikt: Bioderma Sensibio H2O är enkelt att använda. Ta lite av produkten på en bomullsrondell och sedan är det bara att köra. Bioderma Sensibio H2O tar bort det mesta i sminkväg riktigt bra. Ögonmakeup, särskilt om du använt mycket ögonmakeup, kan dock kräva några tussar. Om jag använt mycket ögonmakeup föredrar jag därför att kombinera den med en ögonmakeup remover. Jag gillar att Bioderma Sensibio H2O känns mild och inte svider i ögonen. Produkten känns inte uttorkande och irriterar inte min känsliga hy. 

Slutsats: En riktigt trevlig rengöring som är riktigt effektiv på att ta bort makeup och även fungerar för att ta bort ögonmakeup. På ögonmakeup krävs det dock några tussar så jag föredrar att använda en ögonmakeup remover också, särskilt om jag haft mycket ögonmakeup. Det är dock trevligt att den även tar bort ögonmakeup för de dagar man inte orkar hålla på med flera olika rengöringar eller när man t.ex. är på resande fot. Bioderma Sensibio H2O micellar vatten finns att köpa på Apoteket AB och i deras webshop vilket gör att den är lätt att få tag på var i landet man än bor. Jag kommer definitivt se till till att ha Bioderma Sensibio H2O micellar vatten hemma.

The products from Bioderma were released on the Swedish market earlier this year but their micellar water is enormously popular and I know that a lot of beauty addicts have taken the opportunity to bring one back to Sweden when they have visted France or convinced friends to buy the products for them abroad. Now the Bioderma miceller water are finally available in Sweden. You will find the Bioderma products at the closest Apoteket AB in Sweden.

I will try to give a short explanation for all of you who doesn't know what the micellar water is. Micellar water is not a ordinary toner used as the last step in the cleansing routine, the micellar water contains some sort of charged particles that attracts dirt, water and grease. You don't need water and you don't need the rinse off the product. Just put a little bit of micellar water on a cotton round and clean the face.

Bioderma Sensibio H2O
 
What: Micellar water

About the product: Bioderma Sensibio H2O micellar water is unscented and are suppose to work well with sensitive skins. It's also suppose to remove make up.

My opinion: Bioderma Sensibio H2O is easy to use. Put a little bit of the product on a cotton round and clean the face. Bioderma Sensibio H2O removes most make up quite well. Eye make up, especially if you use a lot of eye make up, may demand a couple of cotton rounds. If I have used a lot of eye make up I prefer to use the product in combination with a eye make up remover. I like the fact that Bioderma Sensibio H20 is good for sensitive skin and doesn't sting in the eyes. The product doesn't dry out the skin and it doesn't irritate my sensitive skin.

Conclusion: A really nice cleanser that removes the make up really effective and it also works with eye make up. When removing eye make up a couple of cotton rounds are needed therefore I like to use an eye make up remover as combination, especially if I have used a lot of eye make up. It is a nice fact that the products removes eye make up as well especially the days when you don't have the energy to work with several different cleansers for instance when you are traveling. The Bioderma Sensibio H2O micellar water is available at Apoteket AB and at their webshop which means that it is easy to get hold of everywhere in Sweden. I will make sure to always have the Bioderma Sensibio H2O micellar water at home.

It's official: I'll be moving

Nu är det officiellt. Jag kommer att flytta. Inte till en ny lägenhet. Eller jo, det kommer jag också men först om ungefär ett år. En mycket mer nära anstående flytt är flytten av min blogg. Inom kort kommer ni nämligen att hitta min blogg på daisybeauty.com. 

Förutom min blogg kommer även sex anda bloggare att börja blogga på daisybeauty.coms nya site. De andra sex skönheterna som ni också kommer att hitta där är:

Camellis Beauty

Självklart kommer ni att på den nya site:en även hitta de tre bloggare som redan skriver på daisybeauty.com. Nämligen:

Kicki Norman (chefredaktör)
Frida Selkirk
Beauty by K
Little Miss Consumer

Jag kommer såklart att informera er mer allt eftersom allt blir klart. Ännu är inget exakt datum satt för när flytten sker men det kommer i alla fall att bli inom kort. 

För er som inte är bekanta med tidningen Daisy Beauty så är det ett magasin med fokus på just skönhet men som dock innehåller även lite mode, hälsa m.m. Fokuset ligger som sagt dock på skönhet istället för mode och är perfekt för alla er som verkligen vill lära er om skönhet på djupet. 

I helgen var Daisy Beauty och en massa bloggare och journalister i London tillsammans med Apoteket AB, Clarins, Glossybox, Hugo Boss, Olaplex, Revlon och Urban Decay. Jag är inte det minsta avundsjuk. Eller okej, kanske liiiiite då. För er som vill veta mer om vad de hade för sig i London så rekommenderar jag att ni spanar in #dblondon15 på instagram.



It's official. I'm going to move. Not to a new apartment. Or wait... I'm going to do that too in a year or so. But a much more current event is the move of my blog. Very soon you will find my blog at daisybeauty.com.

Apart from my blog six other bloggers will start blogging at the new daisybeauty.com site. The other six beauties you will be able to find there are:

Elvirall
Willow Jolie-Gabriella

I will give more information when more information is available. Curretly no date is set for the move but it will happen soon.

For you who isn't familiar with the Daisy Beauty magazine it is a magazine focusing on beauty but that also contains a bit of fashion, health and so on. The prime focus is beauty instead of fashion though which is perfect for all of you who wants to get a deep understand of beauty.

This weekend Daisy Beauty and a lot of bloggers and journalists visited London together with Apoteket AB, Clarins, Glossybox, Hugo Boss, Olaplex, Revlon and Urban Decay. I'm not the least bit jealous. OK, maybe a little bit. For all of you who wants to know more about their actions in London I recommend a look at #dblondon15 at instagram.
 

This years Halloween makeup

Face: BareMinerals Ready Foundation in R170

Eyes: Face Lace Broomchick, Viva la Diva Dream Volume Mascara, Eye <3 Crazy lenses in Twilight

Brows: Dior Sourcils Poudre in ash blonde.

Lips: Lime crime Velvetine in Black Velvet

Sweater: Asos

 Blev en väldigt snabb och enkel Halloween makeup i år. Använde mig av Face Lace vilket är dekaler som man klistrar fast i ansiktet. Det vill säga nästintill inget jobb alls. Dessa Face Lace i Halloween-design heter Broomchick och har gravstenar, en häxa och en fladdermus. Egentligen är dessa tänkta att fästas lite längre från ögonen men om jag hade satt dem högre upp skulle de ha täckt i stort sett hela ögonbrynen så jag valde att fästa dem längst med fransraden som en crazy eyeliner istället.



The Halloween makeup of 2015 was a quick and simple one. I used Face Lace which are stickers that you put on the face. More or less no work at all. These Halloween designed Face Lace products are named Broomchick and are decorated with grave stones, a witch and a bat. The stickers are supposed to be attached a little bit further away from the eyes but if I would have put them higher they would have almost completely covered my eye brows so therefore I chose to attach them next to my eye lashes like a crazy eyeliner instead.
