BEST drugstore Mascara!!

Hey everyone!  This is a VERY necessary review because, this is probably the BEST drugstore mascara out there, and probably even better than some higher end mascaras! This is the Revlon Grow Luscious Plumping Mascara.  Price wise, it is around $7, and there are usually those buy 1 get 1 for 50% off deals so you can really get a steal! 
 No Mascara!
 First coat, notice how it lengthened, and added some volume already! 



Matches my nails! ha ha ha!

Second (final) coat, There is absolutely no need for more then 2 coats with this mascara because it does its job fabulously with just 2.  I noticed my lashes having a lot more drama in them with this mascara.  The formula is not too wet, which is good because you can feel your lashes grasp onto the bristles and you know it's working! This mascara has NO cons to it, since it is amazing! Everyone needs to pick this mascara up!! 







Thanks for reading!

Prom look #1 !

 Hello everyone! I want to do a prom series, just because prom is coming up, and I am sure there are a lot of girls who want to save money for prom, since it's already so expensive!  This look is very simple, and gorgeous! 

If you have a very over the top, STATEMENT dress, I feel like this would be a great look since you don't want to go crazy with the makeup and dress, you want to have just one focus.  
How to get the look:
As always, Apply that primer!! Next apply a white creme base, I used NYX jumbo pencil in "Milk".  Once that's complete, Apply a very shimmery white to the tear duct, and bring it up a little further than 1/3 of the lid. Then, take a shimmery navy color and apply it to the rest of the lid. Blend the 2 colors together. Then apply a light grey color to the crease, you dont want it to be too dramatic, just some defintion to the eye.  Next, apply a brow bone color, add a wing liner, mascara and some black eyeliner and you are finished! Simple right?  This look will be flattering on all skin types and eye colors.  I hope you enjoyed :)
How was your prom experience if you went? If not, did you want to go? Or are you excited for prom?

MACs All That Glitters look!



Hello Everyone!  I did this look a while back, but I was using one of my favorite eye shadow "Allthatglitters" by MAC.  This color is so pretty and natural!!  It's also very versatile.  I also use this color as a highlighter and on the top of my lipsticks! This look could definitely be an everyday look.  I totally recommend picking up this eye shadow! Very pigmented and beautiful.  
How to get the look:
I first applied my UD primer potion, SHOCKER!
Next, I applied the all that glitters all over the lid.  Then, I applied a matte brown into the crease.  After that, I applied some gel liner and created a wing.  Next, I applied plenty of mascara on top and bottom.  Finally, I applied a shimmery white to the tear duct and brow bone and that's it! So simple and easy!  I wear this look a lot during the summer, and never looks too much. It makes my eyes sparkle and glowy :) Thanks so much for reading!
What's your everyday makeup routine?

Cotton Candy Eyes!



Hello Everyone! I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this look! Pastels are really in this season, and I wanted to play around with them with my absolutely GORGEOUS cousin Jasmine! It was such a difficulty getting pictures of this! I couldn't find my charger so we couldn't use my camera so she went to her house at 11pm took pictures and sent them to me, ha ha ha! But, I got the pictures and I hope you love it as much as I do :) All the colors I used were in the regular coastal scents palette, click here to check it out!
How to achieve the look!
As always, I applied UD primer potion.  Then, I applied A baby blue eye shadow, on the tear duct, and brought it up to 1/3 of the lid. Next, I applied a baby purple color and applied it on the outer third of my lid and brought it inwards.  After that, I applied a baby pink color and put in the center of the lid.  Then, I applied a matte white eye shadow on the brow bone.  Finally, I used BROWN mascara. The reason I used brown mascara is because I did not want to draw the attention on the lashes, but the eye shadow.  If I applied black, then it would take away from the angelic white appeal.  And that is it! I totally recommend trying this out!  My cousin and I went to a play after this and she got TONS of compliments on this look, Thank you everyone reading!
Do you enjoy wearing pastels?

Late St. Patties look

Hey Everyone!I actually did this look last year,  but since my camera charger is currently missing I can't upload pictures of my cousin in pastel eye shadows.  I asked her to take some photos at home and send them to me.  As soon as I get the pictures I will upload them :)  I actually think, this look could be a wearable look.  If you want to oomph up your makeup a little,hey, why not add some green eye shadow and gold glitter! ha ha ha. All the colors I used were from coastal scents click here to get the palette!
How to get the look:
As always, I applied my UD primer.  Next, I applied a yellowish green to the tear duct. Then, Apply a lime green color ALL over the lid.  Blend all those colors up a little bit above your crease. Next, Take a shimmery evergreen color, and blend into the crease.  Once that is finished, apply a winged liner (which I did horribly,sorry!) After that, take some glitter liner and apply it over the liner. The one I'm using is from forever21, $1! wooh! Finally, Apply your mascara and eyeliner and you are finished!  If you want to try any of these looks out, please post it and I would love to see!  Have a great day everyone :)
