My Easy Summer Makeup.

In the summer, I'm constantly on the go. I need a fast and easy, but still pretty; makeup look to keep up with my hectic summer lifestyle. My daily makeup routine does just that, and makes it look like I spent much more time on it than I actually did.

I first start off with a tinted moisturizer, which even out my skin tone and gives just a bit of color to my face. Then I apply concealer around my nose, eyes, and other problem areas. I then use 2 foundations. One is a cream to powder and then I use a powder one over that. I use one foundation, the cream to powder one, that matches my skin tone and another that is a shade darker. The reason for doing this is to prevent my bronzer from appearing too harsh on my face; using a foundation darker than my skin tone helps by blending with my bronzer in order to create the perfect shade. It is also very important to do all of this very lightly. II know it sounds like I am applying a lot, but I am not. It all blends perfectly onto my skin and makes it look very natural. I then use my favorite eye shadows combined with a product called Glam Rocks, which are used to add sparkles around my eyes and to give the overall look that extra bronzy glow. I top it all off with Mascara - an absolute must, and a nude lip gloss which adds the perfect touch. This look is quick, easy and perfect for summer.

Here is a list of the products that I use everyday to create my look:

Face:
Nuance Salma Hayek Tinted Moisturizer - medium/deep
Mally Poreless Perfection Glowing Foundation - tan
Urban Decay Surreal Skin Foundation - hallucination
Rimmel London Shimmering Maxi Bronzer - sun love

Eyes:

Stila In the Light Palette - bliss and champagne
MAKE UP FOR EVER La Boheme Baked Eye Shadow Palette
LORAC Glam Rocks - Metallic
Rimmel London Scandal Eyes Mascara

Lips:

What are some of your summer makeup products?

Patriotic Nails.

 

Trying to find some inspiration for my nails for July 4th this week, I did a little search for just that: Patriotic Nails on Pinterest. Look at some of the red, white and blue designs I found.

When looking for things like this, Pinterest is much better than google, don't you think?

Luckily, I won't have to get all that creative because I am heading to Walmart to look for these Nail Rock Designer Nail Wraps.

For just $5.97, you get 16 wraps, a nail prep wipe, a file and cuticle stick. Too fun!

Have you tried these yet? If I find them I will be sure to update with pictures!

Gillette Venus Teams Up with Kendall and Kylie Jenner in a New Video Series.

 

Come check out the Gillette Venus exclusive video series featuring Kendall and Kylie Jenner. The two sisters team up with Gillette to give fashion tips, advice, and to get input from teens like themselves. The series can be found on the facebook page of Gillette Venus.

Here is the Video:

Being that I am a HUGE fan of both Kendall, Kylie and Gillette Venus, I was very excited hearing about this brand new video series. The program which includes new videos and pics from Kendall and Kylie every month, gives teens great advice on fashion, beauty, and how to feel beautiful and be confident. It also gives teens a chance to connect with both Kendall and Kylie and give their opinion on questions that the Jenner sisters have. How fun!

On the facebook page you also have assess to fun extra videos were you get to see Kendall and Kylie in their everyday life, sharing experiences they've had being teens, being sisters, hobbies, and even giving tips on shaving.

In one of the videos both Kendall and Kylie share their experiences they've have had with shaving. They also shared their favorite products by Gillette Venus which are the Venus Embrace Razor ($7.99) and the Satin Care Passionista Fruit Shave Gel ($2.99), which happens to be one of my favorites as well. The biggest tip the sisters gave was to always use shave gel, which is something I definitely agree with. The Satin Care Shave Gel is perfect; it leaves your skin feeling silky, smooth, and comes in many yummy scents.
