Tonight's "Going Out" Makeup!

-
Hello there beauties!

So I thought I would show you what I did with my makeup for tonight. I am going downtown with some friends and I am so excited! I took this photo with my iPhone so quality isn't great, nor is the lighting, but I think you can get the basic idea. 


SO, I am wearing the following products on my face:

Foundation Primer: Smashbox Photo Finish - Light
Foundation: No.7 Lift & Luminate - Medium Coverage - Calico
Setting Powder: Covergirl - Classic Ivory
Eyeshadow Primer: Urban Decay Primer Potion
Eyeshadow: Beauty Gems Palette & MAC Brown Down Veluxe 
Highlighter: MAC Frozen White Pigment
Cream Eyeliner: e.l.f. - Black
Bottom Eyeliner: L'oreal Paris Smoldering Liner - Black
Mascara: Covergirl Lash Blast Volume - Waterproof - Black
Blusher: Covergirl Classic Pink
Chapstick: EOS Strawberry
Lipstick: MAC Russian Red
Also, I used Estée Lauder foundation, powder, and eyeshadow brushes, as well as an e.l.f. eyeshadow contouring brush.  


I am kind of obsessed with editing photos lately... hehe :)
Anyway, let me know what you think, any tips of something I can do to improve, or just if you liked this type of post. Or maybe any suggestions of products that you are really liking right now!

DIY Crafts: Notebook & Mason Jars

Hello there!  So lately I have become addicted to Pinterest (again). As I am preparing to go back to school, I have been feeling really inspired to try out some DIY projects for my dorm! 1) This first DIY is to spruce up a regular old spiral notebook and make it awesome.  I got the idea from a pin of Melisa from  Pie 'N' The Sky 's triangle love notebook. When I saw it, I immediately thought, I can do that - I should give it a whirl! All you need is... - a notebook (mine had a plain black cover and was $1 from Target) - glue (I used Rubber Cement but a glue stick would work perfectly fine as well) - scissors - photos / magazine clippings / cardboard ** - Mod Podge and a brush  ** I used snippings from National Geographic, Vogue, and Seventeen, as well as construction paper to write lyrics from my fav song. I also took my 'Mylo Xyloto' Coldplay album and cut a pattern from the insert in the CD with photos of them playing at concerts.  N

Recipe | Watermelon Rice Krispies

June is here which means SUMMER HAS FINALLY ARRIVED! I can't wait to make fun summer inspired recipes for the next two months before I leave for England. I will share as much as I can with you and hopefully inspire you to try these out as well. My little sister and I saw Ingrid from MissGlamorazzi do these awesome watermelon inspired Rice Krispie treats in one of her most recent videos and we immediately knew we had to make them! She made a very healthy version but we knew our brothers and our dad would want to eat these so we went old school and used the traditional marshmallows and butter routine :) Ingrid always posts really yummy and exciting recipes that I definitely want to try. Anyway, here are some photos of our process and the final product! DISCLAIMER: We are not shown in any of these photos because we had both just showered after our 4 mile workout and were not looking so hot. THE RECIPE:  Ingredients: (We made three batches which totale

Flower Love

My little sister Mary, who is almost 13, makes headbands, bows, and clips for her hair out of cut material from old shirts and cheap fake flowers from the store... and they are amazing !! She is already a beauty/fashion guru in the making. I feel so inspired by her to be more creative with styling my hair, while saving a bit of money :) So here are some photos of her clips and headbands: Flower Love was inspired by a photo we saw on Pinterest*. She immediately wanted to recreate the look with a fishtail braid when we saw it because she just bought some daisies that looked quite similar. Here's me casually sitting in some grass modeling her work... (Secret: I was actually wearing boxer shorts underneath this dress and a car filled with attractive guys  drove by... I was kind of maybe a bit mortified because when standing you could definitely see the boxers. Needless to say, we ran and hid). Flower Power are two of her flower headbands that, in my opinion, are just
