Manicure Monday: Spring Designs

My manicures are my form of art. Whether through colors or designs, manicures are how I express my style or current mood. I’m not impartial when it comes to my manicures, though – I definitely pick favorites. One of my absolute favorites was my galaxy manicure. On the other hand, there are manicures that aren’t […]

A Beauty Review: Benefit’s They’re Real

There is no secret to the perfect lashes.  I’m a firm believer that everyone is different – including your lashes.  Some people might need a volumizing mascara, while others might need a lengthening mascara.  One mascara might make someone look like they have doll lashes, but it might make someone else look like they’ve got […]

Manicure Monday: Haute Reverse French

For all those I haven’t blabbed to, I’m currently spending the week in Paris! What better way to rock Manicure Monday in France than with a French manicure?

Manicure Monday: Nail Lingerie

When I received Sation Nail Lacquer in Of Corset I’ll Call You in this month’s Ipsy bag, I had to try it immediately.  It’s described as “a romantic lavender-rose” and it’s one of my new favorite shades.  It adds the perfect pop of color, but still looks feminine and natural. Good thing Ipsy gave me a […]

Manicure Monday: Tribal Accents

Manicure Monday: Tribal Accents

When it comes to nail art, tribal accents look like possibly one of the most complicated designs. I’ve always been drawn to the design, but with such small details, I’ve never been brave enough to try it. And that is what today’s Manicure Monday is all about – making the tribal manicure easy. You’ll find […]

Ombre is huge right now, whether it’s on your hair, your dress, or your nails.  But it’s not an easy look to get. I’ve tried doing an ombre manicure in the past, and I can never seem to pick the right colors.  China Glaze makes it easy for you with their Ombre kits!  They have […]

A Beauty Review: Benefit’s Fine-One-One

A Beauty Review: Benefit’s Fine-One-One

Benefit’s new Fine-One-One is a sheer brightening product for cheeks and lips – and I’m currently in love with it.  You could say it was love at first swipe. And that’s not just because of the super cute name and pretty packaging – although that does tend to help.  Fine-One-One is a multi-tasking powerhouse, tiny enough to fit […]

Seventeen Magazine and OPI have teamed up to Delete Digital Drama and take a stand against cyberbullying by creating their new #17delete polish. Bullying is a serious issue, and cyberbullying is arguably even worse.  The Delete Digital Drama campaign seeks to spread awareness about cyberbullying and put an end to it.
