Picking Random Makeup Colors AND Making Them Work Challenge #5
This has to be one of my favorite makeup challenges. And I just received some new eyeshadow brushes in the mail from Luxie Beauty so I thought I would give this challenge another attempt to sort of test out the brushes. I'm not sure my final thoughts on the brushes at this time but I will do a review of them in the future. For this attempt of the "Picking Random Makeup Colors and Making Them Work Challenge" created by Mariah Leonard I decided instead of changing up how I arranged my single eyeshadows in my palette I would just pick three from each side and then make them work. Since one side is more of the neutral colors and the other is the bold colors. That way it's a little more workable. Next time, I'll probably do something different.…
View PostPicking Random Makeup Colors AND Making Them Work Challenge #4
This has to be one of my favorite challenges... considering I've done it three times before already. It's just so simple and forces you outside of your makeup comfort zone. I generally wear the same makeup every day with a few slight variations. So this challenge really makes me experiment. I chose five eyeshadows at random then added one more for a transition, and chose a random liquid lipstick from my collection. The color combination that I got really had me stumped on what to even create. And as I created the look I was very unsure of it until I reached the end, then somehow it just seemed interesting in a way I was expecting that made me like it. Now would I wear this as an everyday look? No. But maybe if I was going out I would attempt to recreate this or something similar.…

Now, this isn't the first time I've attempted this challenge created by Mariah Leonard, and I love doing this challenge every now and then as it forces me outside of my makeup comfort zone. Typically I just wear neutral or bronze shades, so forcing me to step outside my little bubble and just make different colors go together is a fun little challenge. Now the colors don't always work together. For instance, I would change the lipstick if I were to do this look again. But overall, I love how it turned out.…

This brand has been killing the market lately so I wanted to test out a few of their new products. And while I was testing things out I figured I might as well do a full face using only Wet'n'Wild products. There were a few items I used that were not Wet'n'Wild in the final look but those are not being included in either the video I filmed for my YouTube channel or for here.…

With Ariel moving out during the beginning of October, I've been in a home decor mood. And I have seen quite a few pinterest posts of paper cacti that people made. But didn't see any that had instructions on how to make them. Plus I thought this would be super fun to make these for our guest bathroom.…
View PostQuick and Easy Hairstyles – The Braids
For the final part of the quick and easy hairstyles, we're going over the braids. These are expanding upon the methods from the previous segment, the ponytails. As they take the concept of braids and taking it a step further. Now for these hairstyles I am wearing my Irresistible Me hair extensions and I had to readjust these a few times in my hair depending on how the braid goes to make the clips more comfortable. As I'm using hair extensions, I'm cutting out the step of adjusting the extensions but I just wanted to note that I was doing that.…
View PostQuick and Easy Hairstyles: The Ponytails
I figured for the next quick and easy hairstyles, I would go over the ponytails. When I'm not in the mood to wrap up all my hair into a bun, then the next hairstyle when I'm running out the door is a ponytail. Not I do include pigtails in this category, but these can be done as a single ponytail. I'm also doing this one before the next one as the techniques in this one will be used in the final segment of this mini-series.…
View PostQuick and Easy Hairstyles – The Buns
I don't usually do a lot of posts talking about hair or hairstyles, so I thought I would mix it up and do a little mini-series on a bunch of relatively quick hairstyles I do. I am going to break them down into sections based off of general appearance or technique of the hairstyle. For the first one, I thought I would stick to buns as that's my daily go to hairstyle when I'm in a hurry or don't want to fuss with my hair for a long time period.…
