FOTD: Simplicity!
Hey everyone!! This is my super simple face of the day, which I have been wearing all month and will continue to wear until I’m done exams.

This look is only seven quick steps: brows, eyeshadow, mascara, concealer, foundation,…
NOTD: Spring Lilacs

HOTD: Super Simple Updo!
Hey everyone! This is a very simple updo I wore today, which I wear quite a lot actually. My hair was on it’s 3rd day (I recommend doing this on the 2nd or 3rd day for texture).

My Little Impulse Buy!!
Hello everyone! A few days ago, I got to work a little early so I had time to pop in to the drugstore and look at the makeup. Evidently I stopped in the nail polish aisle! I’ve heard many great things about the Essie LuxeEffects collection, so I decided to give it a try 🙂 Here are my nails painted…
Ducks and Hearts Nail Art
Hi everyone! This was my first attempt at creating an image on my nails using nail polish (and not a sticker). I’m pretty satisfied with how it turned out!! I started with a blue base coat, then drew the hearts with a medium size dotting tool. I drew a white shilouette of the ducks’ bodies before before going over it in…
Simple Dots Nail Art
Hi everyone!! I wanted to create a quick look using Valentine’s day colors. This look required very little time to paint, but relatively long drying time since the base color I used was very sheer. I had to use three coats to obtain the opacity I desired!! Hope you enjoy it 🙂 I used a dotting tool to make the dots…
