Neon & Beige Nail Tutorial

I felt inspired to photograph a nail tutorial to change up my posts on the blog a little bit. I love reviews but I want to expand the content a little more. What do you all think? 

I have been LOVING this Spring neon and beige trend going around and was inspired by a scarf I recently hated at Target.

Goodluck!

Best Coral Lip Products | 2013

So coral is one of my most FAVORITE colors to come out of the back of the makeup box AND the closet for Spring and Summer.

What is so great about corals is that just about anyone can pull them off. The beautiful tone compliments beauty in more ways than I can even start to imagine!

I went through my collection and pulled out some of my most favorite coral lip products. Most are from the drug store, which surprised me- it just goes to show you how magical the drugstore can truly be :)

UPDATES + L'Oreal Magicsmooth Souffle Blush

Summer is OFFICIALLY here for me! I am so excited and feel so accomplished. I had an amazing semester and met some amazing new friends.

Check out my most recent video here!

This past weekend was the Hoop Path workshop (for my non-hooper viewers, that is a workshop that consists of inner and outer hoop work. It was very healing for me and I feel that I've come out of these last couple of hard months with a new light!

Today I have a quick review over a product that I have fallen in LOVE with, cream blushes. I love most all cream blushes I have tried, but I want to particularly point out these  

L'Oreal Magicsmooth Souffle Blushes

At first I wasn't pleased with this product, but when I learned how to properly apply it I hadn't seen a blush that gave me such a wonderful pore-less and smooth finish. It has been said that if you don't have close to perfect skin, this blush is hard to pull off. I have not tried this product on ache prone skin yet but will keep you all updated on what I learn. But personally, it works wonders for me even during my serborrhic dermatitis outbreaks!

The whipped texture makes for easy application that looks airbrushed and flawless/natural. I apply the product using my clean finger tips but have found that stifling brushes work just as well!

What so great about these blushes are that. The color range is not that wide, but do include some very versatile natural flushed colors.

As of tomorrow I will start putting up more detailed images of the products I review! 

Get the blushes here or at your local drugstore!

NAKED nail varnish | Urban Decay

The hype about the Naked 1 and 2 pallets is a hype that can not be denied.

These palettes have such a strong following because they are the ultimate collection of neutrals that include a wonderful range of pigmented and rich shadows that are easy to blend.

These varnishes were recently released and I was instantly drawn to them assuming that since the naked palette was such good quality that so would the varnish colors.

The colors in this package are very petty in the bottle and are great for people who don't like to mess with crazy colors. I was diss appointed to find that the colors were not very pigmented and took 3-4 coats to start to really see the potential of each nail varnish.

Once the colors where properly applied to the nail, I thought they were beautiful! Since they a neutral, that make it very easy to reach for on a day to day basis.

You can get the varnishes here!

Hope you all are having a beautiful day!
