Drugstore Haul | Beauty

It's been a while since I actually went out and bought some makeup. So I thought "why not treat myself?" So I did. But see the thing with me is I like stopping for makeup and beauty items that are on sale. When it comes to new cosmetics, I usually get on the bandwagon better late. So I'm pretty happy to get my hands on some new and old cosmetics, while not really old, but you know what I mean!

I actually enjoy blogging and making youtube videos. So I made a video on my Drugstore Haul. Plus an added blooper at the end...lol Please do click on the video and let me know what you think! ^_^

Sultry Makeup and Voluminous Curls

Hey guys! How was everyone's Valentine's Day? The man and I pretty much did nothing. We just wanted to laze around the house. As long as were together then I'm a happy gal! I'm not much of a chocolate lover but he did get me some chocolates. I just got back from Rite Aid and all the Valentine's Day chocolates and stuff are 50 - 75% off. If you didn't receive any chocolates then this is your chance! ^_^

Okay so for Valentine's I wanted to change it up a bit. I actually asked my boyfriend what type of makeup style he wanted to see on me, and he said something with dark lips and smokey eyes. So I came up with this look! I'm pretty much in love with this look. I think the deep burgundy lipstick is the icing on the cake. I love it so much that I will be doing a blog post on that soon.

If you would like to see how I came up with this look and hair (must not forget that!) then click on the video below!

Cute Valentine's Day Heart Nails ♥

Finally a nail tutorial and just in time for Valentine's Day! I'm a believer of pink so I thought I would share with you all my take on pink. I wanted to make an easy heart nail art using three polishes, a dotting tool and a top coat. If you don't have a dotting tool you could use the end of a tooth pick. That would work just as fine. In fact I used to do all my nail art (notd's) using a tooth pick or a bobby pin.

I wanted a pop of color, so I used a red polish on my ring finger. For the base coat/color, I used a pale pinkish/nude polish and bright pink and red for the hearts. Topped off with top coat!

Wet n Wild Megalast Nail Color in Sugar Coat
Color Club Nail Lacquer in He Loves Me
Wet n Wild Wild Shine Nail Color in Red Red
Seche Vite Top Coat

Have a wonderful Valentine's Day!

January Favorites! 2013 ♥

 I'm not sure if it's late or not, but you know what they say "better late than never!" I thought I change it up and make a January Favorites video. It's been years since I uploaded any videos and I really miss doing them. It isn't easy too! It takes time out of your day, especially editing...But it's all a learning process and I'm learning as I go along. Filming seems to make me nervous, cause of the fact I'm in a room alone and talking to the camera. This I know will only get better with time. I'm facing the window so could you imagine what my neighbors think?!

If you have the time please come check out my channel and January Favorites 2013 video. I would much appreciate it!
