Quick Update

Hello everyone! I have not been able to check or update my blog for the past couple weeks and I am sooooo sorry. School and work are taking up so much of my time. Although I have ideas for future posts and I promise I'll try to get them up as soon as possible! :) Talk to you all soon and have a great day! 
 

Review: NYX Precious Pearls

I've been wanting the 'Caviar Manicure' by Ciate. It's kit with a bottle of nail polish and a bottle of very tiny beads. It is a bit pricey at $25. So while I was on the Nordstrom website I stumbled upon the NYX Precious Pearls which was $10. I decided to get the NYX instead of the Ciate since I wasn't sure if I'd like the look on my nails plus it cost a lot less.

NYX Precious Pearls had 3 colors: black, white, and black & white. Although Ciate's Caviar Manicure comes in a wider range of colors.

On my ring finger.

I ended up really loving the way it looked on my finger. The white polish is very opaque and the pearls stuck on when sprinkled over the wet polish. Try to pack on as much pearls as possible for a clean look. Also apply a thin layer of top coat at the end so it'll last longer. Mine lasted for 5 days, on the 5th day some pearls began to come off. 

Overall I really enjoyed this kit and will hopefully purchase the black one too! :) Thank you for stopping and have a great day!

Summer Beauty Essentials

Its currently summer where I live. Some days its hot and sunny, then humid and sticky, or thunder-storming. Here are a few items I love for this season:

The first item is the NYX Stick Blush. Since its wax based it stays on for a long period of time. Wax helps it stay in place and its super blendable! Not only is it a blush but can also be used on the lips. I like to apply it on my lips using my finger. I have it in 'Tea Rose'. Perfect for tan skin tones.

Blend it onto the cheeks using your clean finger :)

Next is this Stila liquid eyeliner. It is waterproof and smudge proof. Although I haven't tested it out in the pool or at the beach, it really is smudge proof and long lasting! The pointed felt tip is really useful when creating a cat eye look.

 The sun can be really harmful on the skin and unfortunately I'm really lazy when it comes to applying sunscreen. bareMinerals has a translucent mineral veil with SPF 25. This product can applied all over the face after you've completed your makeup. It helps protect your face from the sun and prevents oiliness.

Moisturize! This hand cream by Soap & Glory smells divine! This product is useful all year long! It has a light, sweet, and fresh scent. I bought the travel sized one so I could carry it around in my bag. :) Yes its a hand cream but I use all over my body, wherever dryness occurs. Lol. 

 

 What beauty products have you been loving? :) Thank you for reading my blog and enjoy your day!

Leopard

A few days ago I painted my nails. I used 'Berry Juicy" by Sally Hansen, a gold color by Color Club, 'Mint Candy Apple' by Essie, and a black nail polish pen. It only took 2 coats of the light pink for it to be opaque, such a beautiful color!

DIY Makeup Brushes Holder

Here's a super cute way to store your makeup brushes neatly. And its easy too! 

List of Materials: 

• Vase 
• Sand 
• Paint and Paint Brushes (optional) 

Start by painting the vase. I chose to paint a branch of cherry blossoms. 

Next add the sand and stick your makeup brushes inside. My vase is 5" tall and 5" wide. I used 2 pounds of sand. 

 

Yay all done! :) There are many different colors of sand to choose from so painting the vase is not necessary. But feel free to get as created as you wish. Have a fun and safe 4th of July everyone!
