Intense. Yes, That Is My Name.

Everyone is raving over winged eyeliner.

         All the eyeliner styles I ever see is winged up. How about Rainbow Style. Take your eyeliner and make a curve and what I mean by that is follow your lash line and then curve the wing down. It rounded out my eyes as you can tell. I think I will start a new trend winged down eyeliner. The current eyeliner I use now is by Maybelline Eyestudio in charcoal it is a gel eyeliner. Then my pencil liner is by Urban Decay 24hr Glide On Pencil.

        I have to tell you guys this but I used to pencil in my waterline all the time until someone told me you can get infections. It scared me to the point where I do not pencil my waterline anymore. Because I had a few dreams that I went blind so now I try to take care of my eyes by avoiding infections like so. I suggest that you do the same. I do not want any of you to go blind.

Now go forth and start a new trend. Hugs to Everyone!

Have a EyeTastic day:)

Color... My Day Long Obsession, Tourment, And Joy

Girl now where are you going to wear this too?

           I actually wore this look on a night out for a dinner party. It was not to harsh because it was more like a smokey blue eye I really liked it and got some compliments. Do not worry your not going to look super ridiculous wearing this on a night out. If you wore this for your everyday look I would be concerned and also jealous of your sense of "I do not care what people think of me".

           So this look is very affordable I used some basic colors from one palette that is drugstore. Yes that is correct a little drugstore palette from Covergirl called Eye enhancers Fard Accent. It comes with four colors. Dark royal blue, Aqua, Burnt orange, Olive green undertone yellow. Then I also used a black shadow, eyeliner, and mascara.

           Lets start on this look, I put Two Faced Shadow Insurance because I wanted to have the pure blue color and I wanted it to last. Next I applied the Aqua color down the center of my lid and only on the lid. Then I place the Royal Blue down in the inner corner and outer corner of my lid. I then took the black shadow which I used Carbon by MAC and placed it in the crease of my lid. I took my fluffy brush and I blended it out everything. I took my angle brush and applied the Royal Blue underneath my bottom lash line to create that smokey affect. I applied my eyeliner with Maybelline Eyestudio Gel Liner in Charcoal. Applied mascara in Bare Minerals Volumizing Mascara. This is an extra step but you do not have to do it. I filled in my eyebrows because they just look better. Apply blush and lipstick and you are ready for a night out.

I hope you receive many compliments. Even with out makeup because you are all beautiful without it.

Have a Beauty filled day lots of hugs.

And remember....

A little splash of color won't hurt ;)

Dirty Little Secret.... Drugstore

Brittanies Must Have Products!

                There all drugstore product that I just have to have this month and last month and forever. They are all super affordable if you are on a budget but they are all also good quality.
                Lets start of with lip products. I have been loving Baby Lips by Maybelline ever since they came out. This one particular is called Peach Kiss and I also like the one that is not scented the original. I also have been loving the Maybelline lipstick in 635 Very Cherry it is so beautiful and it lasted almost all day until I ate. Next is the Sally Hansen lipstick in shade Perfect Pink Rose Parfait. Now for the cheekers! Everyone has been hating on the Dream Bouncy blush By Maybelline but I actually like it a lot. I apply it directly to my face from the jar and it is so pretty when you set it with a powder blush. I do not recommend using a brush with the cream blush that just makes no sense. But this is one is 05  Fresh Pink and I love it paired with Fit Me blush by Maybelline in Medium Coral. Now for the eyes, I really like the palette that is to the right it is a Covergirl Eye Enhancer I believe it is called Fard Accent. Please someone correct me if I am wrong. Anyways I really love all the colors I used the blues mainly in the summer because they were so pretty on my tan skin. Now I use the burnt orange color mixed with a pink and brown and it gives my eye like a fall look and makes my eye color pop. Now I am a big fan of gel eyeliners and Maybelline has a great one called Eyestudio in Charcoal and its pretty awesome when you set it with a black shadow. I love all these products I use them almost every week and  I hope you enjoy them too.

Disclaimer: No one paid to blog about these products. Trust me these are my opinions and you do not have to buy these product if you do not want to. I was just freely expressing my opinion and trying to help a sista out:)


I hope you guys enjoy and maybe try these out if you have not yet. But if you have tell me what you think of them?

Have a great day and hugs to everyone!

I Like Fish

This is possibly the best fishtail braid I have done in my entire life. I took a shower this morning and I didnt do anything to my hair that is why its frizzy.
But I was feeling kind of sick this morning and I did not want to deal with my hair so I did this. This is always a safe braid to do when your feeling low.

I hope your day is better then mine
Hugssss

Was That The Bell?.. Time For Class

I got my smarticle glasses on because it is time for a lesson. I actually took these leapord ones from my mom. This look if you want to know just look at my Pin Up;) post and it list everything I am wearing now.

Beauty101

        Everyone wants those beautiful high cheek bones, but guess what ladies if you spent a little extra time in the morning you could! Just take your bronzer and if you dont have bronzer any dark brown shadow would work. Find the hallows of your cheek they are pretty easy to find just like your cheeks. Suck in and make a fish face then thats how you find your cheeks now for the hallow part it usually lies underneath your cheeks. It will start from the top of your ear and ends at the corner of your mouth. Take a contouring brush and bronzer and start to apply it softly. You dont want a harsh line because you want it to look natural. Make sure you blend it into your hairline. After that you are ready for your blush and pretty highlighter on top.

If you want to know how to contour your nose to perfection and also the forehead leave a comment below. Also if you want to know how to highlight or if you have suggestion comment below.

I hope you guys have a FanTabuLous Dayyy :)
Lots of hugs
