Today, as I was waiting for my mom to get ready so we'd go shopping, I decided to do a more elaborate makeup than my normal eyeliner+mascara+lipbalm look.
For some reason, Jessica Harlow's latest tutorial "Snow Bunny" had an impact on me since I really felt like recreating the look.
Here's how it turned out:
Not the most flattering picture, I know. But it's the one where you could see the look best... And excuse the red marks on my nose, it was because of my glasses.
So, since Jessica's video really made me want to create this look, I thought I would share it with you. It's really flattering on brown eyes, but I think it would also look amazing with blue eyes!
Obviously, if you have other colored-eyes you can still wear this :P
Enjoy!
What are your favorite colors to wear during winter? What is your favorite cold-weather accessory?
So, I know it's been a pretty long time since I posted something on here but I decided that it's time to get back on track. My life has actually started to be more "on track" so my blog certainly needs to follow!
Before I tell you what has been going on with me lately, let's get on to the topic: my favorite VOTW.
I thought this was the easiest and most simple thing to do...
So, this week I decided to show you 2 videos, hoping to make it up to you for the lack of posts ;)
The first one is from Bubzbeauty, a youtuber I really like because she is very... bubbly. She put together this amazing video where she shows us 40 (!!!) outfits in 3 minutes (!!!). This is peeeerfect if you're looking to amp-up your wardrobe because most of the things showed will probably never go out of style.
Enjoy it!
The next video is by none other than Xsparkage. This girl is daaa bomb. Ha ha ha, no but seriously, I love her! She recreated Nicki Minaj's VMA makeup look perfectly. I wouldn't actually wear this but I love how she manages to recreate something so accurately. Also, she uses pretty interesting techniques in this video.
Check it out!
What's new with me??
I got a job!!! I work in a pastry shop. It might sound like it's nothing, but my first day was sooo exhausting.
It's been my second week in college. It was pretty nice! I bet some nice people but already have loads of work, obviously.
I've been on a healthy kick recently! I've been eating very healthy snacks and meals in general.
I will make 2 videos for both my channels to explain more things.
I'm once again a few days late for my VOTW post for the week of July 24-30th. Better late than never, right?? :P
So, when I browsed my subscription box earlier to see which videos were posted that week, I saw the one that had the most impact on me: NikkieTutorials' makeup collection.
Oh... My... Freakin'... Gosh. That was my reaction.
Seriously, how does this girl do it?? She sorta explains it but... wow.
Anyways, I decided to share with you this video not to make you feel like your collection is ridiculously small, but because I thought it was actually inspiring because it made me want to search different products, and she organizes it pretty nicely.
So I hope you enjoy it!
Oh! Before you watch it, can someone please tell me what is GFC?? I see contests on blogs and they all ask for your GFC username and I have no idea what they're talking about... LOL.
I'm a bit late in posting the VOTW for the week of July 17-23. It's kinda hard to find spare time to do work when you're on vacation and you have a little 2 and a half year old brother running around.
So, last week, my favorite video was a nail tutorial. It's once again the masterpiece of AndreasChoice.
I've honestly never seen these kind of nails before her video, but after I watched it, I saw it once or twice!
It's called "nail marbling". I love how you can make so many combination and how you'll never get the same look twice!
Hope you enjoy it, share it, and show it lots of love! If you can't tell by now, I adore Andrea. ;)
For this VOTW post, I decided to feature a tutorial. I'll try to change up the types of videos I share with you just so we don't get bored here!
It was reaaaally hard to pick my favorite tutorial this week, because my two "finalists" are both amazing makeup artists and their looks are both very creative!
First, there was Michelle Phan, with her wearable rainbow look. I've seen this one only yesterday but I was really impressed. The second one is by Marlena from Makeup Geek. It was a cocktail inspired look, who turned out to be super simple yet the combination looks amazing. Now, I only have to pick one, so I had to make some choices.
Since one of the tutorials is 1 week old, I decided to go with the most recent one, which is Marlena's video. This look is inspired by a cocktail called the Appletini. Now, I have no idea what that tastes like since I'm underage and haven't really experimented with cocktails yet, but it sure looks delish! According to Wikipedia,
"An apple martini (appletini for short) is a cocktail containing vodka and one or more of apple juice, apple cider, apple liqueur, or apple brandy. Optionally, vermouthmay be included, as in a regular martini. Typically, the apple vodka is shaken or stirred with a sweet and sour mix and then strained into a cocktail glass."
Marlena is such a genius that she managed to incorporate green and pink into her look without making it look too dramatic and over the top! Honestly, I don't wear very dramatic makeup but I'd totally wear this!
