New Nail tutorial

Hey everybody,

Since I purchased the Claire's nail polishes, I decided I should give it a try on a new nail look. The Claire's nail polish is called Magic. I love the dark purple with fine glittery undertone of a bit dark reddish brown. I really recommended you guys to check out your local Claire's stores to see if this is available. I love this color so much, but my mom does not like it when I where dark nail polish.

Anyways, this is what I got as the result. It is a bit messy since I was in a hurry to do some stuff. Turn out the white dots were not dry yet. This is suppppper eassssy. All you need is Claire's Magic nail polish, white opaque nail polish, top and base coat, and a toothpick. Here is the step:

1. Apply base coat. If you have sheer glittery polishes, u can definitely make this look more fancy by applying them.
2. After the base coat dry, apply Magic like french tips. You can use guiding strip for neater look. I make my own.
3. Wait about 5-7min for that to dry. U might want to apply 2coats of Magic. After all fingers are dry. Use a toothpick and dip it into white nail polish. Dot it on to the tips.
4. Wait until everything is dry. Apply top coat then you are done. Simple!!

I saw this look on faux nails that sold in stores. I thought to myself, why waste money?? I happen to have everything at home. Just need to be creative!!!

Enjoy. And good luck.

Haul and Review of recent shopping trips

Hi Yall!!

This is my haul and a bit of review for the products I purchased. This is products that I bought from several trips to Dollar Tree, Target, Claire's, and Icing.



I went to Dollar Tree and Target on last Saturday. Then just last Sunday, I meet up with an old high school friend, Cassandra, at GM,which is a mall near my house. We end up buying stuff at Claire's and Icing. So here is some things I gathered up from my trips.

From Dollar tree, I got the two loose pigment from L.A. colors. These are not really good quality pigments, but I ended up getting them just for the heck of collecting these. This time I have swatches for both Sunshine and Lollipop. My photo wash out the color, so it won't appear as great as it is in reality. I got e.l.f ES primer underneath to intensify the color. Next time I will try foiling using water to see if it will work better. I also get a pack of bobby pins since I know it will be gone fast if I do not get them, and just in case I lose my existence ones(man I got tons right now, but never hurt to stock up).hee hee. There are 84 bobby pins that is very good saving. The bobby pins are pretty durable too.








This is what I got from Target. Remember that I told you guys e.l.f will be available at Target? So they are here!! I got so excited I wanted to grab everything. There are the $1 line and studio line available. Some items in both lines are not there, such as the e.l.f ES primer. However, there are plenty of stuff for you to choose from. I will come back to get more if I have money in the future. hahaha. This is all I could get. Oh forgot to say, a lot of items actually out of stock too,so it is a miss here and there from depend on yours Target. Below are the $1 items: Drama ES, waterproof eyeliner, and shine eraser.



Here is the swatches from the ES and eyeliner. The eyeshadow is great, you guys can see that the light silver is really sheer. I agreed! I really tried to pack it on but it still did not appear. I think it needed a silver base or may be foiling tech. The darker silver is very glittery, black and white is matt. This is excellent for smokey eye look. As for the eyeliner, it has the felt pointy tip application. Really like a marker. Easy to apply. Not really waterproof. You have to wait until it completely dry for it will not be smudged.



From Claire's I got two nail polishes, the green ponytail holders, and faux nails that is not in the picture. And my friend got the similar things, so we got all of them for $1 each. These are at their clearance section $10 for $10. We have to buy 10 to get the deal. At Icing, they have 5 for $10. My friend bought me the Icing white cream eyeshadow (the swatch is at the dollar tree swatches) and split me the red and black ponytail holders. They come in a ball. I think they are such a great deal.



So I think yall should head over to these stores and get these great deals! I will probably come back to shop for more if I have time and money.

Enjoy!!

e.l.f Coupon for Minerals

Hey Bellas,

I just recieved a coupon code from e.l.f for 50% off minerals line with the minimum purchased of $15. Here is the code: EGMINX



Click here to go to e.l.f

I think this is a great deal, eventhough, their products are already super cheap. I ever tried out their studio and mineral lines. I heard some good reviews from studio lines, but no one has talk about the mineral lines yet. If you guys would like to try it out, this is the opportunity since it is so cheap. Hope you enjoy shopping!!

Prom Makeup and Hair Ideas

To continue the last Prom post, I decided to blog about makeup and hair ideas.

While writing this post, I was thinking a lot on what kind of makeup and hairstyles you guys can do for prom. There are so many so many videos on Youtube that you can choose from. I have to go through many videos from my favorite YT gurus to choose and pick out what can be appropriate for prom. This is a very fun post, and I love it when I see someone get dressup for an event, and what make me more exciting is when I get to do that person makeup and hair. I do not know if I have mentioned this before, I did my cousin's hair for a wedding, and then I did my cousin's and her friend's hair plus makeup for a Masquerade dance. I was super excited because it was my first time doing makeup and hair on someone, who had an event to go to. I did my sister hair before too for several events, but I am not the right makeup artist for her. Either I did really bad on her, or it it simply her eyeshape make her look so awkward with makeup. hahaha. Let's continue with the topic for this post. Here are the videos to help you get some ideas. PLease subscribe to these gurus, they are excellent.

I think this is enough ideas for you guys to see. Moreover, these gurus have more videos that can help you guys. Just click in their name and subscribe to them. They are excellent and talented gurus.

I was thinking of posting nail tutorials, but I think just keep your nails match your dress, or do french mani, or just keep light and sheer color on them. You do not want to over power the whole outfit.

Hope you guys have fun. Enjoy your night!!
