Beauty Tip Tuesday: Applying False Lashes



I've always had a tough time applying false lashes. But I'm excited to share with you an easier way to apply them! I used to apply the lash adhesive to the falsies first and then place them on my lash line. This always got messy and I ended up sticking them in the wrong place. It just turned out to be an all around disaster! Here's an easier way to apply your falsies:


-Dab some adhesive on the back of your hand and let it sit for about 2 minutes until it is tacky.

-With an eyeliner brush, apply adhesive along your lash line. This will ensure that your falsies will stick only where you want them!

- Voila! You have perfectly placed lashes AND a much cleaner look!


I hope this tip has helped you as much as it has helped me! Be sure to share your results in the comment below!

Beauty Tip Tuesday: Cheek Stain


Happy Beauty Tip Tuesday! I have a quick tip for you today. As you've seen in the past I liked to find other uses for my make up products. I always strive to get the most out of my money and that means not just using a product for what it says on the package! For example: lip liner as a full lip stain, concealer as nude lip color and blush as lip color. I'm going to flip that last example around for this week: Lip stick as a cheek stain!

Dab your favorite "cheeky" lip color on the apple of your cheeks and blend!

Top Three Thursday: In my Free Time...

Happy Friday Eve! Time for another Top Three Thursday!


Here are 3 of my favorite things to do in my free time:


1. Reading Blogs/Watching Vlogs. I love watching YouTube Beauty Vlogs. I can honestly get lost in these videos for hours. I get a lot of my inspiration for nail designs and new beauty tips from these vlogs. I've even started doing some vlogs myself! I also love reading blogs on a variety of topics ranging from beauty, couponing, organizing and fashion.




2. Couponing/Bargain Hunting. As I mentioned above, I love reading blogs about couponing. There really is an art to all of this couponing madness! You'd be surprised how much money people waste by not shopping around for the best bargain!




3. Netflix. When I have some free time I love finding new shows to get addicted to on Netflix. I recently got into watching Greek and I love it! This was a show on ABC Family that has since gone off the air.

What are your favorite things to do in your free time?

Be sure to check in tomorrow! It's my 100th blog post!!!

Beauty Tip Tuesday: Long Lasting Lip Color!



Hey beauties! Now you all know by now that I'm a beauty fanatic. One thing I don't wear much is lip color. It just always feels like the color never lasts. So, today I want to share some tips on how to get long lasting lip color!


Tip #1


Instead of using lip liner to only line your lips, fill in your entire lip with the liner!
Liners are cheaper than lip stains and last longer than lip sticks!


Tip #2


  1. Apply lip liner or lip stick
  2. Blot with a tissue
  3. Apply a loose or pressed translucent powder using an eyeshadow brush and cover entire lip area
  4. Apply second coat of lip liner or lip stick


Repeat these 4 steps once more and your color should last all night!

Monday Rambling!

Happy Monday! I just had a few random things to share with you today! First of all, I hope you all got out and enjoyed the weather this weekend! I sure did and I've got the tan lines to prove it! haha

I want to share a quote I just found that really resonated with me. If you are a person who worries a lot like me, you'll appreciate this:


Moving on...Last night I watched the BET Awards and got to watch a very nice tribute to Whitney Houston. I think this has been the best one I have seen yet! If you watched it did you happen to notice how out of place Kim Kardashian looked as she tried to awkwardly bob her head and clap her hands to the music?! lol...

OK , last but not least how about a little mani monday pic?

Mint Condition from Ulta
Glitter polish from Forever 21

Enjoy your week!
