Hello Kitty :D

 

Hello Loves!

Oh my Gosh! its been a long time since I last added a new post! I haven't forgotten about you at all, things in my life had been so busy for me lately that I havent had the time out to sit down and create a new post. But here I am and I'm glad to be sharing with you once again =]

I just had a birthday a few days ago (July 30th and I turned the lovely 23) and one of the things that that I got for my birthday was a nail art set from sephora (click here to view nail art set). Something I always wanted to do was to attempt to make a Hello Kitty mani! I think that It turned out pretty ok!

The colors that I used were:

French mani - O.P.I Pink Friday (my staple nail polish)

French mani underline - Julep Oscar

Hello Kitty face - Essie Blanc

Bow - Essie Lollypop

Nose - sally hansen mellow yellow

Outline - Essie licorice

Simple Solutions: restoring your broken powder makeup

Hey loves!

Ahhhh! Dont you just HATE it when you drop your favorite eyeshadow or powder makeup and afterwards you just dont feel like using it anymore?!

You can easily restore your favorite make up just by using a few items that you most likely have laying around in your home

All you need is 

- 70-90% isopropyl alcohol

- a piece of cloth

- a plastic spoon

- a butter knife (not shown)

1. Take your spoon and crush your make up until it turns into a fine powder

2. Add a small amount of alcohol into your makeup, not too much or your makeup will get to liquid-y, stir until it form into a paste like substance

3. use your spoon or a butter knife and smooth until the makeup is even on the pan

4. Place your cloth over your make up and using your fingers gently press the make up. For my foundation I used the bottom of my lotion bottle. The cloth will absorb the alcohol making it faster for the make up to dry

5. Let your make up dry

And now that destroyed make up you had looks like new again!!

Mani of the week (MOTW) & a little update on my life

 

Hey loves! I been on a almost 3 week hiatus but I'm back! so much had been going on that I've been slacking on this blog =[ 

My MOTW is a summer neon leopard print that I've been loving so much. It was surprising very easy-to-do  all you do is make random dots on the nail bed and with a nail brush, take your black nail polish and make C's and parenthesis on the nail. The colors I used was Sinful colors innocent (neon lime) and sally hansen the sky is the limit (sky blue)

Now If you follow me on instagram, facebook or twitter you may have know that I announced that i cut my hair! yes I cut my hair! The reason I decided/have to get a cut was because when I recently dyed my hair auburn, it damaged my hair =[ and I also wanted a change for myself. So far I'm loving it so much! I have those days when I get frustrated when I'm trying to style it and it won't work out for me but overall I love the cut on me 

Another thing that I announced was that I have a dog! His name is Rocky hes a beagle mixed  and I adopted him a week ago. I went to so many pet stores in Tampa and online searching for a puppy until something told me to just go to the humane society and find one. When I first saw him he was very shy and reserved but once I took him home he warmed up and been loving the place and my family ever since.

Well I'm going to try my best this week to do a new post (I have a fun tutorial in mind). In the mean time SUBSCRIBE to this blog (button located on top left) add me on facebook, twitter and instagram (all links located on top right)

Love you

Happy Friday!! New music: Nicki Minaj - Champion and Chris Brown - Sweet Love

T.G.I.F!!!

Happy friday everyone! I love friday's for some reason! (I mean who don't love them?!)

Well maybe some of you heard or not but Nicki Minaj album Pink Friday: Romans Revenge have got leaked a few days ago (really no surprise there). I'm not really excited about this album or Nicki in general (I'm not bashing her) because of what she has been giving the public lately, basically to me she isn't the same person I feel in love with back in her mixtape days.

One of the songs on the album, Champion ft Nas, Drake and Young Jeezy had caught my ears.
Listen below

Well Chris Brown released his new seductive single Sweet Love off his new album Fortune thats scheduled to be released May 4th

New music/artist to look out for: Iggy Azalea ft T.I - Murda bizness

“Iggy. Do it biggie. Tell ‘em keep sending bottles Imma pop 50."

Meet T.I's new protege Iggy Azalea. She's an upcoming rap artist from Australia.


Her newest release "Murda Bizness" came out a few days ago and let me say I am feeling this song. I also think it's a HUGE reliever to hear another female rap artist instead of Nicki Minaj (shrugs). listen below

The "perfect" royal blue

Colors: (Blue) Essie - Mesmerized & (Multi-glitter) Nicole by O.P.I - Birthday in the s-kylie

So I recently went to ulta to find another color to add to my "massive" nail polish collection and this color (essie) caught my eye right away. I think its the "perfect" royal blue that fits so perfectly for spring. I also added a pop of glitter to give it a little more glam.

What Are your thoughts about this color? Have you ran into any royal blues, or just any blue nail polish that you like and want to share?
