Quick Day Look w/Red Lips

I was feeling a little lazy today!! So, this is what I ended up with. I didn't put any eyeshadow on. Just foundation all over.. even my eyes! All I did was line my eyes, put a little pink blush on, and for the final touch.. RED LIPS! I didn't make them TOO red, just a little hint of red. 

I usually don't do a red lip. I feel only a few people can really pull that look off and I'm not one of them haha. But I do like a little hint of red. 

Oh, one more thing I added (which I wouldn't have if I was in an actual rush) was the fake lashes. I was just bored so I decided to throw those in there.

This was the lipstick I used. 

It's called Nectarine by Estee Lauder.

This is the tinted lip conditioner I used.

It's called Plum Perfect by MAC.

This look is super simple! Really quick and easy if you're on the go or if you're like me and always run out of time somehow! hehe

Hope this helps! And excuse my hair ... like I said, it was a lazy day haha!

Stay beautiful <3

A-Line Bob

One of my favorite cuts to do is the a-line bob. It's a very common cut, but the one time that really stands out to me is when I cut my niece Nicole's hair. I was so excited but sad at the same time! She had beautiful, long, thick, silky hair! The good news is she donated her hair to Locks of Love! ... that's what gave me comfort while I cut it!

Here's her beautiful hair before:

That's Nikki on the right

She's beautiful with long and short hair! Im glad she liked it and I hope you all do too!

Happy Nikki with her new "do".

Simple gold look

So last night I had a fun girl's night. I wasn't too sure on what look I was trying to achieve, but I know I wanted to use my "Naked" palette by Urban Decay!

I love this palette

1. I primed my eyes with Urban Decay's Primer Potion.
2. I mixed "half baked" and "smog" and applied it over my whole lid.
3. I put a little bit of "creep" on the outer corners.
4. To blend the colors I applied "naked" to the crease and to the rest of my upper eye lid. 
5. I lined my eyes with Maybelline's eye studio gel liner in black.
6. And last I applied my mascara.

Here's a closer look at the colors in the palette

It wasn't all that fancy, but I thought it would be helpful for any simple night look. 

Do you have the "Naked" palette?? 

If so, whats your favorite color combo?

Beauty tip #8 Vitamin E Oil

Do you have dry skin?? Cracked lips? Eczema?? Or even circulatory problems?? Vitamin E oil is know to be the wonder oil!! Theres are so many uses and benefits from using Vitamin E oil and here are some of them:

1. Soft skin: This is one of the ways I have personally used it. I have very very dry skin/ eczema on my arms. I've used different lotions and soaps and none of it has worked. For the past month and a half I have been using it right after I get out of the shower and before I go to bed. ( I also use it on my face)  I have noticed such a big difference in my skin and it feels and looks amazing!! Another little tip... you can also warm up some oil in the microwave for about 10 seconds and then rub it on. Works like you wouldn't imagine!!
2. Scars or marks: Vitamin E oil is known as the "healer". You are supposed to apply twice a day to take scars away. And it's more packed with nutrients if you get the capsules and just break them open. I have also used it for scars on my arms and hands. I had a little treadmill accident a while ago ...oopsies... and I applied Vitamin E oil for quite a while and it made the scars much lighter. They aren't completely gone but it helped tremendously!
3. Avoid getting skin cancer: This is a big one guys!!If you just apply a few drops to your sunscreen, you'll be set! Its a big protector!!
4. Shiny hair: Massage in to your hair and scalp. Focus on scalp and ends of your hair. There's two way to do this. A mask that you have to wash out or a leave in. For the mask, warm up a good amount of the oil and apply generously to hair and scalp. If possible wrap around your head and apply heat. Wash out after. For the leave in, don't apply too much and then just style after.
5. Sunburn: Cools and soothes when you have a sunburn. Feels great and gives your skin a little break from the pain!
6. Anti-Aging: Prevents cells and tissues from oxidizing. This is what gives wrinkles and lines. Apply over problem areas.
7. Dry Cuticles: Really softens up dry cuticles. Keeps them looking nice and moisturized!!
8. Massage: Great massage oil!!! Especially warmed up. Feels great on hands and feet!

Hope this helps out. I really love vitamin e oil ( as you can tell from my picture up top, it's almost gone haha). Try it out and let me know your thoughts or results with vitamin e oil!!

Stay Beautiful <3

Valentine's Day Look

Hello everyone!! Happy Valentine's Day!! <3 Here's my Valentine's day look for dinner tonight. I wanted it to be a little more pink-ish but instead I ended up making it a little purple-ish. I'll also post the products I used.

For the eyes I used Urban Decays Primer Potion for my eye base. Today all the colors I used are just random colors they aren't all from a specific brand.
I used Pink for my lids. Purple for the creases. Black for my outer V. And a shimmery color for the highlight under my brows.

I lined my eyes with Maybelline's Eyestudio Gel Liner.

For my lashes I used Ardell Babies in black. Then applied some mascara over them.

For my foundation I used Make Up Forever's High Def Foundation #155.

For my blush I used MAC's Light Over Dark... only the dark part. And for the highlight I used Bare Minerals Gold Gossamer.

On my lips I have MAC's Lustre by the Viva Glam Gaga collection. The gloss is MAC's lip conditioner in Pink Fish.

Hope you guys like!! Send me pictures of your Valentine's Day looks!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!
