Rainbow Eyes




I used the coastal scents 88 palette for these rainbow eyes.

Double Winged Eyeliner








The double winged cat liner is a favorite of mine. I got this idea from one of my favorite make up inspirations, Kim Kardashian. That's right the girl who's famous for what? Well it just so happens that I enjoy her make up... and well all things beauty and fashion. Ok, so maybe I like the show too. Whatever, it's still on for a reason... right? Any way, her make up is always fabulous, and she tries different styles.

For this look I used
Coastal Scents 88 Palette in the purple
Urban Decay Creep and gun metal (in the naked palette)
Mac Vanilla Pigment
Mac liquid liner
NYX milk shadow stick

Naked Palette





The beloved naked palette. I have to admit that it lives up the craze. I was lucky to get my hands on this amazingness, before it was out of stores everywhere. I ended up working a model showcase a couple weeks later, and as you can see I've used a lot of it. I'm a big fan of highlight colors period. Urban Decay's sin has always been a favorite of mine. I like to combine sin and smog,and when I do I always get a lot of compliments on it. This item is out of stock on their website, but I've heard rumors it may return sometime in November. If it does, I am recommending every single reader to get this palette. It's so versatile, and it's really all you need while traveling. So, keep an eye out!

My top five beauty products!

I wanted to share with you guys my top five beauty products! Fill free to share with me yours.

In no particular order

1. Bare minerals Foundation
I've been using this foundation for about 3 or 4 years. I absolutely love it.

2. Nars Orgasm
In my opinion this blush gives you the best glow. It looks very natural and has these gold shimmers in it. Many companies try to copy this beautiful color but none succeed.

3. Mac funtabulous
I love this color. In the bottle it's a sparkly color but once it's on your lips it's a beautiful pink that's a little fuchsia toned.

4. Coastal Scents 88 shimmer Palette
I absolutely love this palette. I bought this a little while ago after hearing about it all over youtube. It's super cheap I believe about 21 dollars and it's great quality. If you are afraid to play with colors and don't want to fork out a ton of money on department store make up this is the way to go.

5. Ojon Hair Restorative hair treatment
I love this treatment. It def helps your hair look healthy. I also thick it makes it a little thicker. The smell is a bit strong but I can handle it since it does a good job.

Fekkai Glossing Cream




Finding a good shine product for your hair with out it being to heavy is def a challenge for me. Most products are to oily and greasy for my fine hair. Fekkai Glossing cream does the perfect job for my hair. This cream not only works good with fine hair but thick hair too! I love the look of the shine after. It's almost like some one put sparkles on my hair strands. I can see an immediate difference. You can find this product at Ulta and I believe Sephora. When looking for shine products or any products really I would def suggest not looking at grocery stores and such because even though they have it's not nearly as good quality as if you got it in a salon. I'm not sure about all products but I know that Paul Mitchelle's products say only guaranteed if sold in a salon. So, before you make your opinion try it in a salon. If it does the job isn't it worth it to pay a few extra bucks. You'll probably spend more searching for a cheap product when you should have spent a few extra bucks up front to get a good quality one. For more information check out fekkai.com That's where I got the image!

Sebastian Texture Tandem


I've recently had the opportunity to try Sebastian Texture Tandem. My hair is very fine and limp. So, when a girl in my class said it would thicken and make your hair more manageable I had to try it! Check out Sebastianprofessional.com for more info that's where I got the pic from also.



Now I am not entirely sure if this is available to buy if you are not a cosmetologist. However, you could probably find it at local salon. You mix together two bottles. One is a creamy formula and one is a clay like consistency. One bottle is supposed to help with shine the other is supposed to help with thickener. You can customize to your hair type. Which is nice because even though I want thicker hair I don't want dry hair either (which is what a lot of thickeners do). I am extremely excited about this product and I def recommend it. My hair is a lot easier to style and after I blow dry it the body stays a lot longer even if I sleep on it!
