NOTW!

Just thought I should show you guys my Nails Of The Week!

I got inspired by Eki's blog. (btw if you don't know who Eki is, then you've been living under a rock! lol) She did this super cute pink glitter tip on her nails. The color she used was OPI I lily Love You shade and as a base color Zoya Dharma.

 I used what I had and I think it came out pretty cute!

I used Zoya Shay as a base color, Sinful Colors Pearl Harbor and Wet n Wild Fireworks for the tip of the nails. I waited a bit for it to dry and then blend it a little higher up to give it that gradient effect. 

I will be trying this again with my other glitter nail polishes. I just wished I had pink glitter for this, since pink is one of my favorite colors.

Well hopefully my next post will be something else other than nails, but who am I kidding?! ^_^

FOTD (Pic Heavy)

I haven't done a makeup look like this in a long time. I try not to use much makeup in the summer time cause it's just too hot for it! But today wasn't that bad so I decided to use my Coastal Scents 88 palettes.

I feel like I haven't been using them in such a long time! I blame it on the Urban Decay Naked Palette! I've been using that baby non-stop! lol Anyways today I did a green smokey eye using the Metal Mania Palette and some of the browns in the 88 Warm Palette.

So this is the look!

I think it came out super pretty! I don't wear greens that offend but I feel like I would now cause green brings out my brown eyes.

What I'm Loving...

At the moment is the Maybelline Falsies Mascara in Drama Black, water-proof formula.

My eyes tend to water on me. Weather it's from the weather or allergies, it just waters up and I get so frustrated. It also seems to mess up my eye makeup. Then my mascara smudges on me, a lot. And no one loves raccoon eyes expect for raccoons...haha

Anyways this mascara is super great for my lashes. Its smudge proof and long lasting. What I really love about this mascara is that it hold my curl really well. I tend to lose my curl with other mascaras. Even after using a lash curler. I also don't like using an eye lash curler after applying mascara, cause I hate when my lashes stick to the curler...ahhh

I think this is by far one of my favorite water-proof mascara!

I'm also liking the curve of the wand. The formula is pretty okay, it doesn't do much for thickening my lashes. But that's okay since I wanted more of a hold for my curl.

I use this mascara for my top lashes and for my bottoms I use Tarte's Lights, Camera, Lashes.

 

As you can see from the pics how well it holds my curls. Long lasting too!

Hope I didn't leave anything out...

Thanks for reading!
