Summer-to-Fall Transition Look

A soft, romantic look is the perfect summer go-to. But for Fall? It can be tricky to find the perfect look. Well, I am pleased to announce that I've figured it out! It's soft, yet edgy. Romantic, yet trendy. And it's really easy to do!

Step 1) apply a chocolate/gold to your eyelids. Don't go past the crease!

2) choose a brick blush, load your eyeshadow brush and blow off excess. Apply to crease, concentrating on the outside corners. Blend well.

3) apply a pink shimmery shadow over entire lid, crease an browbone to add some shimmer and help it to blend.

4) add highlight.

5) foundation! Set with powder.

6) apply brown liner to waterline and black to the top lashline.

7) sweep on mascara.

8) apply the same shade of blush that you used on your crease to the apples of your cheeks.

10) swipe some peachy pink/gold gloss.

Viola! You're done!

"Oh Wow!" Deal: CoverGirl Lipstain

Hey beauties! So, today my family decided to renew their Costco membership- and am I ever glad they did! I imedeatly went to the makeup section (go figure) and I found an amazing deal: 2 Covergirl Outlast Lipstains (in Sassy Mauve (420) and Teasing Blush (415)) and 2 moisturizing topcoats (clear) for $4.99. I can't remember how much these cost individually, but I love them! The colors are a little bright, but, being a glamour girl, they're just the right amount of drama for me. The topcoat adds a perfect shine and shimmer. Take advantage of these while they're at Costco... You won't be dissapointed!

Happy styling!

Summer Ocean Sunset

Summer is almost over! Soon the cutesy heeled sandals and hot pink nail polish will find their way into my seasonal bin and will be replaced by knee-high boots and sparkly red laquer. *Sigh.* I love fall but nothing beats the carefree summer days. As a salute to Summer, I decided to break out the brights and sparklies. I found the brightest bright blue and the most blingy glitter polish and came up with a look that I'm calling "Summer Ocean Sunset". All you need is a matte polish (I used Essence's Color and Go Let's Get Lost) in any color and a glitter laquer (Icing's Glitteratti) . Apply the matte color to all nails. Let dry. Apply one coat of the glitter to one nail. Let dry. Apply top coat. Now you're done!

Happy styling!

Lyrics of the Day

When the sun goes down

when the lights burn out

then its time for you to shine

brighter than a shooting star

shine no matter where you are

fill the darkest night

with a brilliant light

cuz it's your time to shine

brighter than a shooting star

shine no matter where you are.

Nails!

Contrasting nails are super cute this summer! Tonight, I used WetnWild fastdry polish in (purple) Buffy The Violet Slayer and (teal) Teal Of Fortune. **** WARNING: this polish isn't fast dry, though the bottle says it is ****


Get the chic look: apply one color to 4 nails. Brush a contrasting on one finger. Done!

Here's a picture of the results and the polish.
