Nail Tutorial: Beachy Palm Trees!

Im heading to the beach and these nails are a perfect reminder of it.

I started by using the purple color (China Glaze - Coconut Kiss) and painting a thick stripe along the bottom of my nails. Then I used the yellow color (China Glaze - Solar Power) to stripe the middle section of my nail. The coral/pink color ( Confetti - Fruit Smoothie was used to stripe the tips of my nails. For the palm trees I used a black color (Sally Hansen - Mysterious creme). To create the palm trees I used a tooth pick and drug a curved line to the middle of my nail. Then I used the tooth pick to create four streaks for the branches. It's way easier than it looks, and it's great for some summer fun!

Outfit of the Day!

I'm going out to party with a few friends tonight. This is one of the few occasions where I get to pull out my dress up clothes! Tonight I wanted to have a little bit of edge but maintain my cute, girly style!

I love the ruffles on this light, blue shirt. It's girly and sweet. The belt on the skirt is very slimming too. When the shirt is tucked in it makes my waist look very tiny. I'm sure by now you realize I love bows and the headband and the clutch are super cute. The skirt, top, and headband all came from Forever21. The clutch came from Rue21.

 These shoes give my outfit the edgy vibe I wanted. I love all the buckles! Wedges are easier to walk in than pointed heels, and I am going to be out for a looong time! I got these shoes from Kohls

Cute bow ring that came from Forever21.

Haircut: Be Blunt About Bangs!

Okay, so I never realized how much drama bangs could cause. One friend told me they looked gorgeous, and another told me I ruined my hair! I thought it was cute. Opinions? And be brutal! Do they really look that bad?



Review: Urban Decay Primer Potion

Today I'm reviewing Urban Decay's Primer Potion. It is meant to make eyeshadows last longer, prevent eyeshadow from creasing, and make the pigment stand out stronger. I have to say, it does all three! My eye makeup lasts the whole day, and it never piles up in the crease of my eyes. I use eden. It takes a very small amount of the primer to spread it all over your lids. I like eden because it gives the eyelids a natural color and good coverage.

On the left side of my arm are the shadows applied straight to the skin. On the right are shadows applied over Urban Decays Primer Potion. As you can see the shadows on the right are way more pigmented. Anyways, I love this product, and I give it five stars!!! It does everything it says it does.

Makeup Tutorial: Two Toned Eyes!

When I am in the mood for a fun makeup look I love to play with colors. So I tried out the trendy two toned eyeliner look. Its fun and completely wearable!

I used Urban Decays eyeliner in electric under my eye waterline. It is a stunning blue color. I used Urban Decay eyeshadow in flash on my top lids. These two colors are so vibrant and make a great combination.

Fun Rainbow Summer Nails!

In order from Left to right these colors are: China Glaze Coconut Kiss, China Glaze Frostbite, Finger paints Sketch n etch, China Glaze Solar Power, and Confetti Party Hearty

Hair Tutorial: How to Make a Simple Hairbow!

First Step:

Create a ponytail on the crown of your head.

Second Step:

Take a second hair band and tie it around the end of your hair in your ponytail.  Keep a small section of hair out of the second hair band

Third Step:

Split the hair between your two hair bands in half. You should still leave a strip of hair to the side.

Fourth Step:

Push the second hairband behind the first, and where you split your hair should fall to each side. Secure it behind your head with a clip or bobby pins. Now, all that should be left is that one strip of hair.

Final Step:

Take the last strip of hair and pull it in the middle of your bow. Secure it behind your head in the clip or with bobby pins.



Its super easy and super cute. I hope you give it a try!
