Fall Make-up Refresh: Eyeshadow
Updating your look for fall can be done really inexpensively. This year, easy-to-wear purple and metallic eyeshadows are on trend, so I picked up some drugstore finds to tackle each look. Both pack a lot of style for just a little money. The one on the left is from Sonia Kashuk. I found it at Target,… Continue reading Fall Make-up Refresh: Eyeshadow
Lime, Coconut & Sugar Scrub
There’s something about whipping up an at-home beauty remedy that makes me feel like I’m in sixth grade at my best friend’s house trying on make-up and practicing new ways to do hair. Well, I may have moved on from braces and big bangs, but I still love a good, at-home beauty treatment. Yesterday, I mixed up the… Continue reading Lime, Coconut & Sugar Scrub

Smoothed across cheekbones and brow bones,… Continue reading Beauty Finds

After my post about a dark lip, I thought I should share a recipe I found for a lip scrub over at Petite Elefant. Having something like this in your back pocket is critical to pulling off any of the bold lip colors popular for fall. I also have a feeling it will come in handy… Continue reading DIY Beauty: Lip Scrub
Drugstore Diva: Whiney Lips
Wine or bordeaux colored lipstick is hot for fall, but I’ve been a little apprehensive to try it. For starters, the look reminds me of the 90’s. Oh, you don’t remember this?
DIY: Almond & Orange Scrub
A year ago, I did a post on DIY Beauty. For a while, I’ve been wanting to try some of the other recipes I found while researching, and finally landed on this almond orange scrub via Pink of Perfection. I had all of the ingredients on hand, so it seemed like a perfect fit. It was a… Continue reading DIY: Almond & Orange Scrub
