Highlighting 101

Hello My Beautiful friends,

It is a beautiful monday & I thought what a better day then to learn something new! So today Im going to be telling you all about highlighting! Im going to be answering some simple questions: what is highlighting? What kinds of highlighters are there? Why should I highlight? How do I apply it & Where? What brushes do I need? So lets begin…

Products Talked About:

ELF Shimmering facial whip: Lilac petal
Bare Minerals Face & Body Color: Geniune Jade
Smashbox Face & Body Palette: Gold Mine
Elf Glow Bronzing Powder: Sunkissed
Color Institute Twist Up Blush Stick
Neutrogena Concealer: Fair

1. Whats Highlighting?

I know we all look at bridal magazines or celebrity magazines & it always looks like the light hits there cheeks & nose at just the right angle! Well thats not the case , they give that illusion using makeup , specifically a highlighter! So if you want to have that glow effect then keep reading!

Its A makeup product , it can be a powder , liquid or cream product That you apply to your face to add a glow or to extenuate certain features! (gives you a glow also known as bridal glow or flawless appearance) I wasn’t even outside when I took this picture but yet the sun managed to hit me right above my cheek bones! 😀 Its all about the highlighter!

2. What can be used to highlight with?

Well You can use a powder, cream or liquid that has a light shimmer or that is just lighter than your skin tone.. Usually they have a champagne color, pinky color, or gold tone to it!

3. Where do you highlight on your face?

So you can highlight on top of your cheek bones, bridge of your nose, cupids bow, center of fore head, underneath your brow, right above your brow & even on your chin (highlight areas you want people to notice on your face , & places you want the sun to hit just right)… You do not have to highlight on all of those areas but as you can see I did on most of those & it looks pretty good! … Usually women highlight on there cheek bones & Nose.

So I hope this was helpful .. For more information don’t forget to watch the video above! So here is my complete look for the day..

I went with a very natural eye look & Nude pink lip & A very Glowy highlight…

Highlight :Color Institute Twist Up Blush Stick
Highlight: (To set the cream highlight) Smashbox Highlight: Gold Mine
Lips: Elf Matte Lip Color Natural
LipGloss: holiday Hugs Lipgloss by Philosophy
Cheeks: Wet N Wild Mellow Wine Blusher

Bronzer 101

1 / 6 / 14

Hello My Friends!

I hope your having a good start to your MONDAY… So schools back in and I thought why not make class fun today.. Lets talk all about bronzer! I have had a lot of you asking me about bronzer , if you can wear it, if your too light to wear it, how to wear it , what it is, what contouring is… I will show you how to universally contour ; but I am planning to do a contour 101 video where I show you how to do it according to your face shape.. But for now lets learn all about bronzer …

(Make sure that if you want to stay updated with my videos you subscribe on the right hand side!)

TIPS:

Bronzer : There are two types , A Shimmer one (Used to add glow) or a Matte one (Used for contouring)
Glow Bronzer must be 1-2 Shades darker than your skin tone, usually has a gold shimmer to it
Contouring bronzer needs to be 2-3 shades darker than your skin tone & needs to be completely matte
What is contour? It is basically corrective makeup designed to reshape your face.. (make your cheeks look slimmer, your forehead smaller your nose smaller etc)
Can anyone use bronzer? Yes you just need to pick the right shade at type for you!

I hope this was helpful for you!

Today Im actually wearing the Hard candy Bronzer on my cheeks like a blush, topped off with Milani Baked Blush : Rose D’ Oro

On My lips I am wearing Neutrogena Jumbo Lip Balm : fresh Papaya

Eyes: Profusion Palette : 2

Best Of Beauty 2013

1 / 2 / 14

Hello My Loves!

Welcome to 2014 , Its a new year ! Today I thought I would reflect on last years Beauty Favorites! Things that I love & Tell you why!

Products Mentioned:

First Off Hair & Skin: Bed Head Moisture Maniac Shampoo & Conditioner have literally saved My hair from brittle distraction! I Got them together at Cosco for $20, The smell is amazing & right away I noticed a difference!

My Absolute Favorite fragrance for 2013 Is the Pink Sweet & Flirty Perfume from Victorias Secrets ! It is a very girly, fruity with a hint of flower scent & the best part is it only cost $20

I have used aveeno for most of the year but Clean & clear morning burst cleanser has been the star… The one I am using right now is this one which I won’t get again because It has caffeine But the Fruit Infusions kind is so great! They smell good , they are gentle enough for daily use & they are just so refreshing!

Lately I have gone back to the Silk From Silk essentials I got this at regency beauty institute & it works amazing on styled hair, It makes you look like you just came out of a salon! So silk , soft & shiny…

Now Going on to Makeup!

For Eyeshadow I am absolutely loving the L’oreal Wear infinite kerrys bronzes quad the colors are some amazing bronzy neutrals, that are so pigmented & rich!

I also added this ELF $1 Eyeshadow quad in Drama because it is the perfect smokey eye, the eyeshadows are put together nicely to give you a beautiful easy smokey eye! For just a dollar you can’t beat that!

Eyebrows are a big must do every single day! I have used pencils, shadows, gels & all the above but I keep going back to Elf Eyebrow Kit : Medium It has a gel & A Shadow Its just fantastic! IT only cost $3 & it even comes with a really great eyebrow brush!

A Blush I keep on coming back to , to the point where I have hit pan is The Elf Blush: Tickled Pink It is a great universally Flattering everyday blush… It works with any look & it is just my go to blush!

Next is a Random Favorite , My Bow! I have made these bows myself… I did a DIY Bow Clip Blog post already showing you how to do this but it is so great & I am not going to lie to you but I am obsessed with BOWS!

I have tried a lot of foundations but by far my favorite to use is the Loreal magic Nude liquid powder foundation! It is a liquid foundation with a powder finish, it feels like no other drugstore foundation , it has a medium coverage & it leaves your face look natural..

The concealer duo I have been loving & has been working really well is the Elf $1 All over face concealer: Honey & The Kirkland mineral exact concealer .. I use the elf concealer to conceal blemishes & The Kirkland Concealer in yellow for under the eyes! It works amazing together!

My absolute favorite bronzer this year is the Elf Glow: Bronzed It is a mineral bronzer .. It is a neutral brown rather than warm so it is perfect for contouring!

So my favorite nail polishes of the year are Wet N Wild Candilicious , Sinful Colors: Tempest & Avon: Midnight Plum.. These nail polish are so beautiful they dry fast, apply evenly, & are really pigmented with the first coat!

Last , But not least is…. LIPSTICKS! I have raved about these lipsticks in my blog before because they are that great .. I did an in-depth review about the jordana twist & Shine balm Stains Honey Love & cranberry Crush.. They are really inexpensive at $2.99 a piece , they are moisturizing , pigmented & the best part is it is long lasting (leaves a stain)… The LA Colors Lipstick & lipgloss DUO is also another lip product I have relentlessly talked about because they are soft, creamy but they have a more matte effect & the best part is it leaves a stain that is gorgeous! Plus they are only $1 at the dollar tree , these are my fAvorite shades Flushed & Charmed…

So here is my Makeup look for today! I have talked about the profusion palettes At walgreens & the dollar tree… I am using the Dazzle me Petite Palette on my eyes to give me a more neutral eye!

This shirt is from Wet Seal Just in case you are wondering!

Hello My Beautyful Ladies!

So I know I have been MIA for a little bit , I feel like everyone is sick right now! Anyways I was cleaning and thought hey “Its time to take out the trash!” I have empties to show you… If you don’t know what that is, I basically save up beauty product containers that I have used up and I do one big review in an empties video. I tell you if I like it, If I would repurchase Etc. I love watching these type of youtube beauty videos because I like seeing what people liked that way when I go to buy something I don’t buy a sucky product. So hopefully you guys enjoy!
