Classic Holiday Glam Makeup Look

 Hello babydolls!
So, what would this holiday season be with a classic neutral eye, with flirty long lashes and a bold RED lip!? Hehe no such thing!
This is probably a look I'll be wearing for Christmas and a few upcoming holiday parties I'll be going to ;)
In the video I show you how to achieve a very classic, natural eye, but also 5 different RED shades of lippies that go so perfectly with the look.
Hope you enjoy this tutorial, because this was one of my favorites for sure that I've done :)

Review/First Impression of the L'Oreal Voluminous Butterfly Mascara!


REVIEW ON THE L'OREAL VOLUMINOUS BUTTERFLY MASCARA!
Hello love bugs,
So, I have to say that I really do love the mascara...off the bat I am letting you know upfront that I really do enjoy this mascara.
I feel like it is a perfect, every day mascara that does a great job of volumizing and thickening my lashes. And one thing that REALLY impressed me, was that it did great at holding a curl.
In my review, I mentioned how on one side I pre-curled my lash, and the other was left normal.
And throughout the day I didn't notice any difference between the two sides.
So, if you're on the market for a new mascara, definitely give this one a go!

HOW TO: Contour & Highlight!




before

After  

Hello beauties--
SO, after much trial and error, I finally found a routine that I feel comfortable enough to share with all of you. Whenever I recommend a routine, a product.. ANYTHING to you guys, I make sure I try it over a period of time to triple make sure it's good enough to share.
And these that I mentioned in the video are simply awesome!
They blend beautifully, the darker foundation has never oxidized on me, and it has withstood outings with my kids to the park and long days at work.
This routine is simple enough for anyone to try! :)

These are the products I used!!!
From start to finish.

  • LOREAL Revitalift Miracle Blur (the oil-free one)
  • LOREAL Magic Nude Liquid Powder Foundation in 324 Buff Beige
  • Tarte Amazonian Clay Concealer in Medium (but any concealer will do)
  • Maybeline Instant Age Rewind Eraser for Dark Circles in Light Pale
  • Maybeline Fit Me Foundation in Coconut
  • AirSpun Loose Face Powder
  • Lorac TANtalizer Bronzer/Highlighter Duo
  • Blush is Milani in Luminoso
  • Highlight is Hard Candy Baked Bronzer in Tiki
  • Brushes *Stippling Brush is from Real Techniques and the other Dense Brush is from BH Cosmetics*

FALL LOOKBOOK | 3 Black & White Looks


Hello Beautiul Love Bugs!
So here is my first crack at incorporating more 'Fashion-y' type of videos onto my channel. My style has really evolved in the past year, so I am excited to share what I've been loving ;D
I wouldn't have been able to pull this off without the help of my baby brudder :) so I figured I'd share some extra fun 'Behind the Scenes' type of pictures to go along with the video!
