Here "Kitty Kitty"

Just thought I would post these amazing Hot Pink Cheetah Nails. I love the look and ease of this product, and had tried a few sets of the Broadway Nail Dress collection earlier last year.



This design was so much fun, and thought it would liven up my afternoon, with a pop of color. Broadway Nail Dress comes in a variety of designs, and can be found pretty much anywhere nail products are sold,for around $5.99 (Walgreen's,Target,Rite Aid,Fred Meyers) 

In the process,I do trim mine,then file the remaining excess off

The kit comes complete with nail decals,and a little emery board to smooth, and file them onto your nails.They should fit just slightly above the cuticle and extend just a bit beyond the tips. I find that trimming them to size, smoothing them, then filing off the excess really helps.

My almost finished result

And my psycho kitty nails are done!

After they have been applied, I add a generous topcoat to seal, and protect them from peeling or lifting.





I'm happy to say, that these wear pretty well, and will last for about 4 days.








Until next time~

Simply "DASH-ing"

I have long admired the beautiful bronzed smokey eye look of Kim Kardashian. There are many tutorials out there from mild to dramatic,with deep dark black liner and mascara.

I wanted to create a simple,natural looking version, that is easy to re-create for an everyday look. Not all of us wants to wear heavy eye makeup to the office, right?

To create my look, I used an ELF Palette, The one shown contains 32 eye shadows, and I used the top four on the left to create my "DASH-ing" look.

First, simply apply the white shade all over eye, then add the light yellow shade for your lid color, then using a slant brush, add the brown shade to your crease,and the darker brown on the outer corner of your eye.

Follow with dark brown liner,a hint of silver on the waterline, and lots of mascara,for a not too over the top version of a soft bronze smokey eyed look.

 The palette sells for around $10.00 and can be found at Target, or Walgreen's.

You can always add a deeper liner, or liquid liner for a great nighttime look,but this is just right for daytime.

Keep it stunning dears!

Until next time~

And yes, I was lucky enough to meet Kim in person,and she is gorgeous!  

LASH LOVE

There is nothing worse than running out of your favorite makeup,let alone running out of your daily go to mascara during a busy holiday weekend!  Yep, I woke up only to realize that my trusty tube was all dried out.


Desperate as I was, I didn't want to brave the busy traffic and drive all the way to my local Sephora or Ulta, so I did what any non crazy fashionista would do, and headed for my local Walgreens. I'm so glad that I did!

 Now, I don't usually buy drug-store makeup, but I spotted this on the shelf,and knowing how well Maybelline mascaras work, I decided to give it a whirl.

What I got was way more than I expected.

This is a brand new product, part of the Great Lash Line called Lots Of Lashes,and that's exactly the results it gave me.

This mascara defines your lashes to the max,and for $4.99 does it better than most luxury brands. It didn't flake,smudge or budge all day.



This is me, after applying just one coat of Lots Of Lashes mascara.. nothing else was added.



 The brush is amazing,with little "teeth" that grab your lashes, even the tiny ones in the corner.

It was also easy to add length to the bottom lashes,which is usually a hassle with other types of brushes. This is one mascara that is on my top five list,and I will purchase again.



 Long, lush lashes ,and alot of "whoa" without alot of dough?

I'll take that any day!




Until next time~
