Get the Look: Kylie Jenner


I think we all died a little when we realized how amazing Kylie Jenner started to do her makeup earlier this year. Lately almost every YouTube tutorial has been about achieving her look. Everyone has been dying to know what specific lip liner she uses to over line her lips. 

Get the Look: Kylie Jenner

  1. Kylie always has a matte and flawless face so it is always important to have a foundation that will give full coverage. There is a hint of an under eye highlight but it is not to crazy. It's always important to set with a powder so nothing budges.
  2. She keeps her eye look focused on the lashes. For eyeshadow use neutral, matte colors and blend. The wing is very subtle so use an eyeliner pencil and smudge it out or create a small wing with some liquid eyeliner. I'm pretty sure Kylie wears fake lashes but that's okay because they look so good! If you're not up for fake lashes try using a mascara that gives length and volume!
  3. Her face always looks nice and bronzed. Use a mauve/brown blush on your cheeks. There is also a subtle highlight to the look.
  4. Kylie's lips have been the talk of the town lately. People have been saying that MAC's lip liner in Whirl is the exact one she uses. Make sure to use a mauvy color for the lips and keep them matte!
What do you think of Kylie Jenner's latest look?

My Everyday Makeup

My Everyday Makeup

For summer I like to keep it very simple. I make sure to keep my face sweat and shine proof. I decide to skip out on foundation during the summer since my skin rarely breaks out. I apply the Maybelline FitMe Concealer under my eyes and the NYX Above and Beyond Full Coverage Concealer on any redness or scarring. I blend it all out with my fingers and Beautyblender. I use the bareMinerals Matte Foundation to set wherever I have applied concealer and to any places that tend to get shiny throughout the day (my forehead). On to my eyes, I also decide to skip out on eye shadow and just apply the Urban Decay Big Fatty Mascara on my lashes the Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal in Nude on my waterline to open up my eyes. My go-to blush has been the Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso, it adds a great pink-y sheen to my cheeks. Lastly, I apply the NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Stockholm, a great nude lip color.

♡Get the Look for Graduation: Emma Watson♡

♡Get the Look for Graduation: Emma Watson♡


Earlier this week, Emma Watson became a Brown University graduate. She posted a selfie on her instagram page and I absolutely thought her look was appropriate for graduation. Remember to keep it simple but also keep in mind that you will be taking picture so you don't want to look completely washed out. Congrats class of 2014!

♡ AUGUST FAVORITES♡


August went by way too fast for me. Summer ended and school started so I'm still trying to transition into school time like waking up at six a.m.


These items are what I've mostly been using this month:

Beauty:


Urban Decay Big Fatty Mascara

This mascara has been my absolute favorite this month. For a full review on it check out my post here.

Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush Bold Liquid Liner

I'm usually not that big of a fan of eyeliners but recently I've been wanting to try it out. I used this liner to practice making the perfect cat eye with it. The felt tip brush definitely helps get the look. I got it in the color brown but once I tried it on I knew should have gotten the liner in black because it's not as bold as I wanted it to be.

Victoria's Secret Ultra-Moisturizing Hand and Body Cream 'Strawberries and Champagne'

This body cream has been one of my favorites this moth mostly because of the smell. It is a very subtle smell that can also be soothing. I also love that it feels like a butter cream and doesn't feel sticky after applying.

Essie nail polish in 'Shifting Power'

This nail polish is a great transition to Autumn. 

Victoria Secret's Ultimate Look Shadow Trio in 'Most Wanted'



This eye palette has been my go to palette for this month. I mostly use the color in the center because it matched my skin tone exactly. It gives me a natural color but with a shimmer.






Forever 21 Eyelash Curler

I have noticed that curling my lashes before putting on mascara does help lengthen my lashes. The only downside to this is that it does pinch me sometimes.

Forever 21 French Bulldog Mirror Compact

I just love the design on this. It's adorable!

Old Navy

This has been my makeup bag for the past month. I love the colors and the vibrancy of it.
Fashion:
A'GACI Lennon Metal Frame Rounds

These have been my go to sunglasses this month. I love the quirkiness of them.

Link to purchase
Old Navy Zip-Top Canvas Hobo

My go-to purse this month. I love the color and it goes with any outfit I choose to wear.

Link to purchase
Old Navy Knit Cardigan

I've been wearing this same cardigan all month. I got mine in a large so it would fit me over sized.
Stay Cute!

♡REVIEW: URBAN DECAY'S BIG FATTY MASCARA♡


Sorry I haven't posted in FOREVER. I've been super busy trying to get ready for school but don't worry because I'm finally posting! So today I decided to do a review on Urban Decay's Big Fatty Mascara. Let me start off by saying that this is my absolute favorite mascara. It definitely makes my lashes longer and thicker. I know this is a high end product and can be pricey but it is totally worth it. The tube is also bigger than most drugstore mascaras so there is more of the product. This amazing mascara also doesn't leave any clumps. 

Would I recommend? Yes!
