My Everyday Makeup Routine ♡

Hello ladies! For this video, I thought I would share my everyday makeup and show you a simple and quick tutorial on what I do. By the end of the day I like to wear either a red or coral lip, but for during the day just a lipgloss for moisture. Hope you find it useful and helpful!

Hope you enjoy!

3 in 1 Makeup Looks for Back to School ♡

                   Hello! Since it's back-to-school season I thought it'd be helpful for some of you who are going back to school to create 3 simple looks for your first day/week of school! I used products you could easily find at the drugstore since some of you might not be 
able to afford high-end makeup and I tried to make the looks effortless so it can be easy to do in the mornings. The only high-end makeup product I used was the Naked2 Palette. 
A lot of you girls have either the Naked or Naked2 Palette so I didn't think it'd be an issue and plus I think purchasing either one would be a good investment since the eyeshadows are very good quality and they're all neutral shades so they suit everybody.

Easy Lime Green Makeup Tutorial ♡

Hey everyone! I apologize for not posting a video on Wednesday! I was at my aunts house for 4 days and I had no access to the internet so I had no way of uploading or making a blog post. 
I've been so busy this past week helping my aunt since she was due for her C-section on Monday
and attending a friend's wedding which I also did her makeup for! :D If you'd like to see a post on that, leave a comment below letting me know!

Anyway, I did this bright lime green makeup look because I wanted to play with color on my sister's beautiful hazel eyes!

Hope you enjoy!
