For the glitter challenge I used this Lip Paint stuff - it's a matte liquid lipstick that comes with a pot of glitter that you tap on while the lipstick is still wet (I do one lip at a time so I'm not fighting time too much). You can find this at Walgreens for less ...
Make Up Challenge: Day 9 – OMBRE
I cannot lie, this is my favorite look to date - and may be my favorite look of this whole challenge. I could have gone a little heavier on the eyes, but I do have a dinner to go to tonight where this full look might not be the most appropriate. It's much easier to ...
Make Up Challenge – Day 6: Neutrals
I feel like this is a little bit of a duplicate, since it's very close to my everyday look.... But with that said, it was actually nice to have something a little more wearable than the previous 2 days. Not much else to say about this one. Primer: Smashbox Foundation: Marc Jacobs Gel Foundation 22 Bisque Light Concealer: ...
Make Up Challenge – Day 5: Sunset Inspired
Buck clearly did not want to be involved in the picture... This look didn't come out as good as I had it pictured in my head. Definitely not my favorite.... but it was still fun. I never use yellows and rarely use pink eye shadows so it was fun trying to play with them. A ...
Make Up Challenge – Day 4: Crazy Eyeliner
Whoa! OK! This is one of the looks I was dreading partly because I hate the shape of my eyes and feel like it limits a lot of the really cool eyeliner looks that just don't work on me. I will say, that my initial design was much much different than the end result. I ...
Make Up Challenge – Day 3: Bold Lip
I actually frequent a bold lip, so this time I wanted to do something different for me - a navy lip! I completely fell in love with this look and pretty am bummed that I waited until night time to do this. My apartment hosts a boot camp which is held outside, and of course ...
Make Up Challenge – Day 2: Everyday Look
TA-DA!!!! My everyday look - complete with ponytail, work out headband and neon work out shirt. Today was acro yoga day, so I was on my way out the door. I like to use browns and golds for my every day look, and I use a light coverage foundation. This is my "10 minute face" ...
The 30 Day Make Up Challenge!
Through some accidental clicks on Instagram, I came across this hashtag - #30daymakeupchallenge and it immediately peaked my interest. I dove deeper and found this: 30 Day Make Up Challenge So here I am, publicly committing to do this challenge and I figured, lets just start today. There will be no filters, no retouches or anything. ...
One Month In…
I'm currently sitting on my patio enjoying the sun contemplating if I should open up the bottle of Rosé that I just purchased, as Buck eats his dinner. Today officially marks my one month anniversary of being a Texas resident. After quite the struggle, I am legally no longer a New Yorker as I surrendered ...
What Would You Miss?
The lease has been signed, and now comes the fun part - cleaning and packing! I'm not going to lie, finding a reputable mover to help take my stuff across country has been the most stressful part so far. I've received quotes ranging anywhere from $1,400 to $7,600!!! Which is completely and utterly ridiculous! I'm not ...
