Hi Everyone!

Katy Perry Concert Make Up && Outfit

Hello Everyone!

I hope you've all been having a great summer while I took a little break from blogging. I couldn't really decide where I wanted my blog to go - more reviews, more fotd, tutorials or what not. I decided I want to push myself more with more tutorials (maybe start a youtube channel) and fotd as well as stepping by my photographs. Hopefully, I can stick to this through this coming up school year. I can't believe I start classes in less than a month. Anyways, let's get down to business.

 Last week, my lovely friend Rikki invited me to go to a Katy Perry Concert with her and two other of our friends, Linnie and Jolie. Never did I expect us to be less than ten feet away from the stage! Katy Perry is an absolutely amazing performer and such a lovely singer. Today, I am going to share with you the make up  and outfit I wore to the concert. Forgive me, but I don't remember the exact products I used. For the eyes, I did a neutral base and then used a matte brown to smoke it out a bit. I decided that purple was going to be my color of choice that night so I added a bright purple into the inner corner of my eye as well as a bit in the inner third of my lid. I then used the same purple on the outer two thirds of my lower lash line. I then used kitten by Stila in the inner third of my lower lash line. I added a thin liquid black line and a few coats of mascara. Lastly, I added a cherry red lip and a little bit of glitter over kitten right before the concert. This is what it turned out like! I really liked this look. I thought it was super fun and very Katy Perry.  As for my outfit, I went pretty simple with a pair of high waisted shorts from Forever 21, a flawy navy blue top that I got from Rikki's mom (Thanks Gayle!), my fairy shoes from Steve Madden, a bright blue heart necklace and a purple flower hairband I made last summer.

Lots of Love,

Make Up Look: Bright Blue Liner

Hello Everyone! 

I hope you'll had a great start to July. I know I say this like every month but time is really flying by. I honestly feel like summer just started! Today, I have a quick face of the day post for you. This is the make up I wore on 4th of July.  I created this look using my Stila "In the Know" Palette and a bright blue shadow stick by Rimmel ( I can not remember the name) but you could do this with any bright blue color. I really like how it turned out so hopefully you enjoy it! xx

FOTD: Pop of Color May 30th

Hello Everyone! 

I hope you are all excited for June. I can't wait to start going to the beach every single day. Today I have a quick face of the day for you from a few days ago. I really liked this look. It is a purple shimmer eye with a teal inner corner and a wing. On the lips, I had on a coral color. I thought this was a perfect look for summer. I don't remember what products I used but the inner corner color is by Sephora! I need to start writing down what products I use. I hope you enjoy and let me know what you think!

FOTD: July 20th 2013

Hi Guys! 
This is my make up look from last night. I really wanted to share this with you because I used Coppering by Mac and even though it is a beautiful color, it can be kind of hard to wear so I thought I'd share how I wear it! 

Products I used:  Bare Minerals Party Time Primer Benefit Hello Flawless Foundation  Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer Benefit Boi-ing Concealer  Rimmel Stay Matte Press Powder Nars Duo in Laguna and Orgasm Maybelline 24 Hour Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze  Mac Eyeshadow in Coppering Benfit Magic Ink in Black Benefit They're Real!  Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in # 17
I started of by priming my face with Bare Minerals Party Time Primer. I apply this with my fingers all over my face. Next I use my Benefit Hello Flawless Foundation in Toasted Beige. I apply this with a damp beauty blender and make sure I blend it in really well. I use two concealer: Rimmel Wake Me Up in Classic Beige underneath my eyes and Benefit Boi-ing in #3 on any spots I have on my face. I am weird and use a foundation brush to blend my concealers in just because I feel like concealer brushes are too small and I never actually use my foundation brushes for foundation. Next I apply my Rimmel Stay Matte Press Powder with a kabuki brush all over my face. Following that, I apply my NARS bronzer in Laguna all over my face with a full face brush by Bare Minerals. This gives a really natural all over bronze color. Using my SOHO blush brush, I apply my NARS blush in Orgasm to my cheeks; a little goes a long way with this product. I don't like eyeshadow primers so instead I use my Maybelline 24 hour Color Tattoo cream shadow in Bad to the Bronze. I use my finger tip for this and blend it all over my lid. Next I take a big eyeshadow brush by SOHO and apply Coppering by Mac all over my lid and into my crease. Then taking a blending brush, I think I used my ELF one, I blend the color up into my brow bone. Following that, I take an angled brush with Coppering on it and apply it to my lower lash line. Using my finger tip, I take Bad to the Bronzer again and apply it into the inner corner of my eye. I then use my Benefit Magic Ink liquid liner and make a "winged" look with my top liner. I adore how dark this liquid liner is. For my lashes, I used my all time favorite They're Real! by Benefit. It is such an amazing mascara for lots of length. Lastly, I use my Kate Moss lipstick in number 17 from Rimmel on my lips. 

How do you wearing Copper colored shadows? 
Lots of Love, 

OOTD and FOTD June 20th 2013

Hi Guys! 
So yesterday I had one of my best friend's graduation. She is the last one of all my good friends to graduate high school and it's so weird! She is always been like our baby girl and now she is a graduate! Time flies by so fast, its crazy. Here is my outfit and make up for graduation. 

My outfit:  Top: Blue Sky  Skirt: Forever 21 Wedges: TJ Maxx All Jewelry: Francesca's
This Top was in a haul I did last month and I could not wait to wear it. However, it took my a while to find the perfect time to wear this beautiful lacy light blue top. I decided to pair it with my gray skirt from Forever 21 because I liked how the top looked on a gray bottom better than on a black bottom. The wedges were a gift from my mom when I went away to University last fall and they are just so cute and summery. For jewelry, Francesca's is the way to go. They always have great options and all of their jewelry is just so cute! I honestly don't think I've gotten jewelry from anywhere else in a long time. 

On my Face: Prime Time Foundation Primer by Bare Minerals  Wake Me Up Concealer in Classic Beige by Rimmel Fit Me Foundation in 245 by Maybelline  Baked Bronzer Duo in Honey Heat by Sephora Lasting Finish Soft Colour Blush in 120 Pink Rose by Rimmel  Stay Matte Pressed Powder by Rimmel  Eyebrow Kit in Medium by Elf Beauty and the Box in Secret Garden by Tarte Long Lasting Eyeshadow in Black Flame by Sephora  They're Real! by Benefit  BAD Gal Lashes by Benefit (lower lashes) Eyelash Curler by Revlon  Lasting Finish Kate Moss in 17 by Rimmel
