Neutral Makeup and Sweet Treats

Hey:)

I did a neutral eye look yesterday, thought I'd post a few pictures. I mixed a bunch of stuff, mainly a lighter foundation and a few darker browns in the crease using the coastal scents, 88 Warm Palette. 

AND, since midterms are done but finals are starting soon, I decided to treat myself to a special treat. I have a BIG SWEET TOOTH! So my best friend and I went to a really cute cupcake boutique, and we indulged on 4 flavors of cupcakes. It was heaven.


So, until next time! :)

November Favorites!

Hi!

It's almost the end of November! I'm so excited for the holidays to get started! I love going shopping and seeing all the beautiful decorations and the way the city's lights make everything look like a winter wonderland at night!

After I watched Farah Dhukai's video on youtube about how to get healthy shiny hair, I decided I would try her method of using almond oil. I put it on the day before I wash my hair, and OMG! It makes my hair so soft! I also feel like it's helping with the dandruff. In love with this.

 The next item is also a hair product which is a leave-in conditioner. Its the Aveeno Positively Nourishing Leave-in conditioner. I spray a small amount on my damaged ends, and it makes my hair softer and shiner. I also use it on my mom, she has colored hair, which is super dry, and when I spray this on before I blow dry it, it makes her hair manageable, and soft.

On to beauty products!
Red lips are the new trend right now! I found the perfect shade of red! Its Revlon Really Red lipstick! Its a matte finish, it has good staying power and is very pigmented. Something about wearing red lipstick makes me feel powerful.

And finally, my latest find! I've been wearing neutral eye makeup to school lately, and I found the perfect crease color. It's maybelline Creme de Cacao. Its this dark brown color that is the perfect color for my medium skin tone. I just love it. It gives me that definition without being too harsh. It's not very pigmented, but that is something I wanted. Plus I got it on sale for $2.50. Can't beat that!

That's it for now!
I hope that you all are doing well!
