New Revlon Balm Stain

18 Aug

I just discovered a new lip product and I love it!  The Revlon Balm Stain is a moisturizing balm infused with a lightweight lip stain that gives lips  just enough color that lasts for hours. Balm stain is perfect size to take on the go and is in the form of a chubby crayon for precise application.  It’s a  perfect day-to-day lip product if you want to look slightly made up but not over the top.  Available in 12 colors at drugstores now for about $8. (I’ve seen them for $6.79 at Rite aid and $8.99 on Revlon.com)  These crayons are very similar to  Tarte lipSurgence  that retail for $24.

How to make a heart on your nails in a few easy steps

14 Jul

I am so in love with all the latest nail art I have come across, it’s such a sensation across beauty blogs and all over the web. I have always done polka dots and have mastered the easiest way to do so.  I am not artsy at all, so getting perfect polka dots every time is an amazing feat.  I used to use a toothpick until I discovered my favorite polka dot making tool at a craft store  years ago and I still use the same tool now. The tool is known in the scrapbooking world as a stylus or embossing tool and they’re very reasonably priced, $2-$4 at Michaels, Jo-ann or any craft store. I prefer the dual tipped kind, so I can choose the size of my polka dots. This whole polka dot obsession has led me to include heart designs in my nail art.  I came across a tutorial a few months ago that showed how to create a heart by connecting 3 dots. you’ll see just how simple it is in the pictures below

Stylus tool $2.10 at stuff4scrapbooking.

Heart in a few easy steps.

1. start with one dot

2. make another dot directly beside it

3.make a third dot under the first two, directly in the middle, this will be the bottom of your heart.

4 connect the three dots into a heart shape.

5. give your design plenty of time to dry before applying your topcoat.

I prefer to put a small amount of polish onto a post it and dip my tool into that instead of into the bottle.

Fashion meets Function with Black Ties

28 Apr

Fashion meets function with this super cute hair tie collection called Black Ties by Bloom jewelry. I found out about these by spotting one on a friends wrist and asking her about it. I thought it was a great idea being that most women are on the go and are usually caught with a hair tie of some sort on their wrist. These are spruced up hair ties that look great alone or can easily blend in with bracelets. When added to a braid, bun or pony tail they create a chic and fun look without pulling or snagging. Known as “The Elastic all Dressed up”, these are perfect for throwing your hair up all Summer long. They range in price from $26-$48 for a package of 2 and are available on the Bloom Jewelry website and select boutiques.
