Every year Pantone gives out a list of top colors that will be trending in the Spring. This post is a visual suggestion of how to use these trending colors.
Check out next Thursday’s post for the second part of Spring 2017 Trends.
Pair your green jumpsuit with black accessories for a subtle holiday look. For ultimate Christmas look go with true red lips and a unique scent.
You can never go wrong with pairing black and gold. Use bold lips and a sweet perfume.
Of course red is on our list for holiday outfits. Keep your look natural but your perfume spicy.
Check out this video for an easy 5 minute Holiday look.
I will list what I used here but feel free to use your own makeup. I try to keep my makeup videos easy and attainable. It is just a guideline that you can use. I love glitters for holiday parties so I pack them up on my eyes and lips. Also there is a list of what I used in the video in the description box. (and what I used on my face to get ready for this video.)
Happy Holidays Everybody!
Tutorial for real life Snapchat Halloween costume this was pretty easy all the flowers 🌺 were bought from a dollar store. Just detach them and use bobby pins to secure them on the headband. Use your regular makeup for this look here I’m adding some shimmer and shine just to make it closer to the Snapchat filter.
If you don’t want to wear a perfume you can wear deodorant (scented or unscented), scented body lotion or body splash. But, if you are like me and addicted to perfumes then be careful. Do not spray too much, the gym is the worst place for overpowering perfumes; and be mindful of others when choosing your scent.
These are some recommendation from me but you can choose anything fresh or mild. Try to go for perfumes with softer sillage.
For Women:
The main accords are citrus, musky, white floral, amber and, woody
Any of the clean collection really.
The main accords are Citrus, fresh, green, aromatic, floral and, powdery.

Summer is here and we are all about short shorts, miniskirts and, maxi dresses with splits. So let’s talk about how to get sexy legs for summer. I’ve searched the web and found all the basics that you need to know.
Here is one of the easiest and shortest exercises that I found thanks to Petite Heartbeat. The best thing about it is that you won’t need anything to do this workout so, it can actually be done at home.
Have you had one of those days that you wear your favorite dress and it looks like you haven’t shave your legs for a week? And you are thinking to yourself how that is even possible I’ve shaved them yesterday! Yes, it happens to all of us.
If you don’t want those black pores on your legs, try scrubbing before shaving.
Here is one of the best I found for a leg scrub.
What you need:
1 ¼ Cups sugar
3 tablespoons of lemon juice
¾ cup coconut oil
Mix them all in a bowl and whip them. That’s it! Your scrub is ready to use.
Hair Removal
This is an essential part of summer. Even though Waxing leaves your legs smoother and last longer, not many of us can wait for our hair to grow sufficiently long before booking our next appointment. So we choose to shave.
The word on the street (the internet) is that we all should invest in a bottle of baby oil instead of shaving creams.
Tan Enhancer
Don’t forget to buy your Tan Enhancer and make sure it has SPF. Some good brands that I know of are Hawaiian, Australian Gold and Jergens.
Enjoy the summer heat and cute clothing!
One of the most natural and hydrating lipsticks from Christan Dior is Rouge Dior Baume Natural Lip Treatment. we all heard about the benefits of lipcare, hydration and scrubbing the lips, but how many of us actually do all that. We usually rely on our lipstick to take care of it all, the good news is if you choose your lipstick from this collection you are all set.
who is best to describe the formula than Dior website : ” 10 times richer in natural origin lipcare ingredient than a classic lipstick*, Rouge Dior Baume delivers incredible comfort and pure, heightened colour radiance. At the heart of the formula, natural origin Crystal Oil forms a line-filling, revitalizing and protective film on the lips, while retaining an incredibly fine consistency with flawless hold. Lips are intensely smoothed, plumped and full.”
All eight colors that we have on our website are beautiful. They have shimmer but look natural. You can also Layer them on your favotite lipstick for more bold colors.
When you have a lot of makeups and lotions you might forget to use them all. The question is when to toss your beauty supplies? If you have not used them yet and they smell and look fine to you can still use them. However, when you start using them keep this chart in mind:
Keep your Mascara, Face mask and peels and loofah up to three months.
Your liquid eyeliner, foundation, concealers, face washes, eye creams and serums can stay up to a year.
Say goodbye to your Lip Gloss, Cream eyeshadow, sunscreen, bar soap, shower gel and eyebrow gel after a year and half.
2 years is the time for eye-pencil, lipstick, nail polish, lip pencil, blushes and eyeshadow, pressed powder and scrubs to go.
Toss your shampoo, conditioner, Body lotion, hairspray and perfumes after 3 years.
If your makeup already has an expiration day on it, use that as your guide.
Time to clean out your makeup bag!
Don’t overuse your perfume. No one should be able to smell your scent before getting close to you. Also, your smell should not linger in the room after you leave it. Don’t spray too much! Especially if you are wearing a spicy or smoky perfume.
Apart from having a day and night perfumes, keep in mind that you shouldn’t wear any perfume to some places like hospitals. This may cause patients discomfort. You may want to use a scented body lotion in this situation. Also, it’s better to not wear the same perfume that you use for a party or a date, at work. Chances are that your night perfume is too strong for a work environment.
Some people use perfume to mask unwanted odors such as cigarettes or alcohol. While this might help you at first, the end result may not be in your favor. The combination of your fragrance notes with the scent you are trying to hide might actually result in a worse smell. Only use your perfume to compliment your scent.
If your perfume is expired stop using it. I know that it’s hard when you pay a lot of money on your bottle but after a perfume expires it gives out a harsh and overpowering scent.
After a while, you may get used to your own perfume and cannot smell it anymore. Resist the urge to reapply because for others your smell may become intolerable and overwhelming.
Perfume is all about chemistry. Don’t blind buy a perfume because of its good reviews or because you liked it on somebody else. Try a sample on yourself for a few days to see if it suits you. (Maxaroma to the rescue)
Do not apply your fragrance on your clothes as some oils may cause spotting. Also, you can learn how to efficiently use your perfume from this article.
