A BLOG TUTORIAL: THE NO-MAKEUP MAKEUP LOOK.

hey guys! I'm sorry I haven't posted in forever :( Anyways, I'm making up for it right now, by giving you a quick tutorial on how to achieve the perfect no makeup makeup look. It is super quick and really easy to achieve.


1. SKIN
Since you are going for a really natural look, you don't need any heavy coverage. Applying a foundation base or a serum like the Lumene Instant Rejuvenating Serum will keep your skin radiant and moisturized. Then, with a tiny bit of liquid foundation, dab and blend at problem spots like under the eyes. Trust me, less is more. For my entire face, I used less than half of a pea sized amount.
















2. FACE
If you want a very natural face, avoid blush. I applied a bit of Nars Laguna Bronzer to contour my cheeks and nose. This will give your face subtle definition. Again, less is more.
















3. EYES
For really effortless eyes, you can simply apply a coat of mascara. But, if you do want to put a little more effort into this no make-up makeup look, you can opt for some shadow. I swept a nice champagne shade like the L'oreal Infallible Eyeshadow in Iced Latte all over the lid and really blended it into a sheer wash. Then, taking a matte light brown like Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Naked, define your crease. Finally taking a matte skin tone shade like Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Foxy, highlight your brow bone. I would skip the eyeliner for this is a very natural look.

4. LIPS
For lips, you want to keep it very simple. I simply applied my Smith's Minted Rose Lip Balm, and I was ready to go.
















5. FINISH
This step is optional, but for a nice dewy finish, I sprayed a finishing spray. I used La Roche Posay Thermal Water Spray, but another option is Mac Fix+.

















There you go! This look is super easy and super quick, but still looks polished. Hope you enjoyed!

P.S. I have been OBSESSED with this song lately: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgSE3lAdYIE&feature=related

NICE ZOMBIES???: NEW TRAILER FOR WARM BODIES

hey guys :) I heard about this new movie coming out in February called Warm Bodies. It's about a zombie named R who wants to be human.....what I got from the trailer is that the world is affected with the zombie virus, but there are also even more zombie-ish things called bonies that are more evil. There are aso humans. ANYWAYS, back on track, this undead dude named R finds this girl {nothing like a classic girl-meets-zombie love story, haha} and he saves her. By loving her, he seems to be curing himself. The trailer seemed very interesting and it looks like a movie I would be interested to watch. What do y'all think? I'll put the trailer below:

P.S. Apparently it is also a book :) I'll be sure to read it and tell y'all what I think.

QUICK TARGET HAUL.

hey guys! I went to Target to pick up a few essentials :) This is what I got:













1. L'OREAL SULFATE-FREE FORTIFYING SHAMPOO
I needed a new shampoo, and this looked cool, so I decided to try it. {thumbs up for excellent logic ;) }
But, it says that it is supposed to strengthen your hair, which sounded nice, so I went ahead and bought it. Also, it smells amazing.













2. PANTENE AQUA LIGHT WEIGHTLESS NOURISHMENT CONDITIONER
I also was out of conditioner, and I have tried this before and like it, so I repurchased. I use a     crapload of conditioner in my hair each day so, I'm not really looking for a fancy one. This bottle is HUGE though, so hopefully it will last me a while.
















3. CLEAN AND CLEAR ADVANTAGE 3 IN 1 EXFOLIATING CLEANSER
My face has not been nice to be lately, and I have multiple breakouts going on :( I noticed that this cleanser has 5% benzoyl peroxide {a.k.a. the acne assassin} so I decided to try it out and see if it worked.














4. ST. IVES BLEMISH CONTROL APRICOT SCRUB
I love this scrub soo much :) The exfoiliants are a little rough, so I only use it in my t-zone area, and only a few times a weeks, but this baby keeps my pores and blackheads away.














5. EOS FRAGRANCE FREE SHAVE CREAM
I love the mint eos lip balm, so when I saw this shaving cream, I was caved and got it :) The packaging is soo cute. Which is weird to say because it's shaving cream, but whatever.














6. RIMMEL LASH ACCELERATOR MASCARA
I don't even know why I got this...but I guess it will be a fun new mascara to try out. The packaging is pretty awesome, this picture looks like the words are literally zooming by :)


So yeah that was basically what I got at Target :) Not really incredibly riveting, but it is what it is, haha. Happy Friday!
