VALENTINE'S DAY 2016 MAKEUP TUTORIAL





OMG it's that time of the year! Time get glamorous! Whether you got some awesome plans to get dressed up and go out with your sweet heart or you'll be hitting the town with your crew this tutorial is for you!

I tried to keep it simple but still glamorous, by having light smokey eyes and soft pink lips. So if you are still looking for some inspiration for this weekend look no further. I got you!

This tutorial was initially supposed to have used used drugstore makeup and for the most part it worked well for my eyes, but not so much when it came to the rest o my face. However I am still planning on doing a tutorial with brands that you can pick up at your local drugstore or Target. This time around I'll test the products before hand so that there are no surprises lol





WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR VALENTINE'S DAY?

YSL TOUCHE ECLAT NEUTRALIZER | INFLUENSTER VOXBOX



YSL touche eclat neutralizer influenter voxbox

Welcome back! I was chosen for one of influenster's newest voxbox, and this time they were featuring the YSL Touche Eclat Neutralizer. This is supposed to help with hyperpigmentation and dark spots on the face, by neutralizing it before foundation and concealer application. By using a neutralizer you take away some of the darkness so that you can get a really flawless application from your foundation.  I got this in the color in Abricot Bisque. It has a light orange tint to it. I personally have been using it as a highlighter because I don't think that for myself it has enough coverage or tint to completely hide the few dark spots that I have on my face.

MAC LIGHTFUL C MARINE BRIGHT FORMULA CLEANSER




Today we will be taking a closer look at the Marine Bright Formula Cleanser from MAC. This is my favorite cleanser ever!!! Like I'm so in love with it, and I thought I would share some key points and benefits that makes this product so amazing.

Going to bed with your makeup on is a big no-no! It can clog your pores and it's not very sanitary. I know that for myself if I keep my makeup on overnight I will have a pimple the next day. I've been working pretty hard on getting my skin back to normal, after having some really bad breakouts  (due to birth control) that left my skin with dark marks from the acne. So naturally the last thing I want to do is cause any more unwanted pimples on my face.

I start my process by using makeup remover wipes (also from MAC and equally amazing) and I then go in with my MAC Cleanser to do more a deep cleaning of my skin, and I do this in order to completely remove the makeup that the wipes still left behind.

According to MAC the Marine Bright Cleanser is:

When combined with the rest of the Lightful C collection these products are supposed to brighten the skin overtime. My skin definitely feels softer, healthier and brighter when I use it consistently. Here are some key reason why I love this facial cleanser:


For myself the fact that my skin doesn't feel super dry after using this product is a huge plus. It removes makeup easily and the creamy consistency is gentle enough for my skin. If you've been on the hunt for a good cleanser I would definitely recommend the Marine Bright Formula Cleanser.

HEATLESS CURLS | CURLFORMER ON 4C NATURAL HAIR


Hello beauties, today the topic is HAIR! If you didn't know I really don't like doing my hair. I am what some would consider a 4c natural hair lady. And the curl pattern (or lack thereof) throughout my head differs. With that and the fact that my hair is super full thick I just don't have the patience.
So while looking for easy natural hair styles on youtube I saw quite a few people using curlformers on their hair and I really wanted to try it myself.

THE PERFECT BRIGHT PINK LIPSTICK FOR WOMEN OF COLOR

 



Hello friends, so I got this super cute ice cream cone shirt from H&M and I was instantly inspired to wear a bright pink lipstick with it. I hadn't worn a fun pink lipstick in a very long time and this was my chance lol. We get so stuck on "winter colors" and I'm over it already! Now don't get me wrong, a dark lip will always have a special place in my heart but I'm just tired of it right now.

SPARKLY GLITTER MAKEUP LOOK

It's 2016 woo hoo!!! And this is my first post of the year. So I thought I would share something sparkly to brighten up this blog a little bit. In my humble opinion if you want to take any look up a notch just add some glitter. And quite honestly this theory can probably be applied to many other aspects of life!
