Day 13: Cheer Yourself Up Mani

Tweet
I'm not going to even begin to talk about my absence lol. So let's just get into it. I saw the mani challenge for today and thought AWESOME!! ...Now what am I going to do? LOL A lot of things cheer me up and and I'm like all over the place... So wait, what's the problem? Why shouldn't my nails be?! That is the challenge after all right? SO my mani is bright, bold colors, sparkles, glitter, and rainbows!! YAY me! LOL

Starting and ending foundation =)

Rainbow Nail

Other 9 funky fun nails lol

Then this. I'm just lost.

First off my nails were in horrid shape before hand... My pinky nail just broke off while I was removing the polish... My thumb has been like this for weeks. I think it happened when I was making a bow... Glue gun on the nail might do that to you lol

IDK what happened!! =(

Since I had been neglecting my poor nails and I previously used Plum Luck, I decided to give them a good cleaning, ie a brightening and strengthening bath with Peroxide and Baking Soda. It works girls!! It takes no time in comparison to the time we actually take on our manis.

1 tbsp of peroxide, 2.5 tbsp of baking soda, mix and let it set for a min, put the paste on each nail and let sit for 5mins

 After I rinsed, I added in a cup of hot water, stirred and let my nails soak for about a minute to soften my cuticles and give them a little extra oomph!! =) Definitely recommend giving it a try!

No rainbow nail (which I kinda like) no top coat

Rainbow nail. Decided to wing it. Eff the tape!! LOL

 I hope you like it! I'll be doing an Avon First Impression and look soon! MUAH!!

Last Friday Night!!!

Tweet
Helllloooo my beauties!! Today is a WONDERful day! I've noticed that I've been in such a good mood lately, all bubbly and perky! I think you might have something to do with that =)

As some of you may know, I model part-time and yesterday was my agent/manager, friend & confidant's birthday [whooooooo!!] so of course we partied on Friday night. ;-) Okay, before I both shock & disappoint you all, be forewarned, I have hair [it's not blue, lol] & in all the excitement I forgot to take close ups of my makeup. BUT! In an effort to make it up to you, I will tell you which products I used.

Now onward to the pix [W00t!!]

Makeup Party Cont...

Hey everyone!! Sorry, I've been MIA, I've been in the process of working, moving, and unpacking this Halloween weekend >_< Good news: I'm back and I have some great posts for you!! Starting with the the pics from the makeup party with Ashley =)

The above pics are me playing around with her NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils & OMGSH! These things are heaven sent and I must have them!! LOL Here I just did a simple smoldering upper eye with Slate and to add a little neutral color, I used Yogurt on the brow bone. Love the sophisticated simplictiy! To pull the look together, I used CLINIQUE lash doubling mascara in Black/Brown for my lashes, NYX Mosaic Powder in DARE, and of course my trusty Tarte LipSurgence in Bluff. I liked it, hoped you did -)

Now! Dun, dun, dun!!! My fave of the night:

       DAY AT THE PUMPKIN PATCH! 

This was my first run at doing a "themed" look and also my first time using orange. Ash was kind enough to have faith in me with her pallet, she wanted me to create a look with it and this is what I thought of. It was a NYX pallet with Oranges, Greens, a Rustic Brown & Ivory. I hope you get where I was going with this.

  

*Sorry for unkempt brow. I decided to make the lid completely orange for the pumpkin, of course. Then I added a light orange, almost yellowish shadow for a highlight. The rustic brown was the undereye choice for dirt in the patch and the green is for the head of the pumpkin. Hope you enjoyed!

Orange ya glad!

This trend was hot this summer, yes, I'm talking the infamous ORANGE LIPS. I first found my love for them in Sephora's Summer catalog with the pic below:

Gorgeous, isn't it?

So of course I immediately went to Sephora and bought the necessary fix. I'll post the pics below but first I want to say that I really like the fact that the orange is still really for this fall as well. I don't think I'll be wearing it with the gloss but I will definitely still be rocking my bright pout! =)

*The first application, just the lipstick

*The second application, topped with gloss
