GET THIS LOOK: Summer Glow

 

Hey girls! Now that it's officially summer, I wanted to do an easy summer look. It took me about 7 minutes to do this. I like this look because it's still very natural looking. It's great for every day! So here's how to get this look!

1. Prime your face with mark.'s Primed for Perfection Face Primer. Apply Foundation. I used L'Oreal True Match in Warm 6. Dust face lightly with mark.'s Set things Right Loose Powder. I used shade Medium. If you have any blemishes, you can cover them up with a concealer. I like mark.'s Save the Day Anti-Acne Concealer Stick.

2. For eyes, dust Urban Decay in color Scratch over over lids and color Shag in the crease. Use mark.'s No Place to Run Longwear Eyeliner in Jet Set along waterline and on the outer corner of bottom lash line. Apply 2 coats of L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara in Carbon Black.

3. Apply mark.'s Glowdacious Illuminating Powder in Shimmied Up in the hollows of your cheeks and around your hairline. Dust mark.'s Just Blushing Powder Blush in Afterglow on apples of cheeks. Highlight your cheekbone's with mark.'s Exotic Beauty Face Mosaics.

4. For lips, use mark.'s Gloss Gorgeous Stay On Lip Stain in shade Lolli.

5. Last, spritz your face with Urban Decay all nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray. And voila! You're done! :)

For gorgeous beach waves, all I did was curl the ends of my hair with a 1 inch curling iron. Wrap the ends of your hair twice. Make sure to curl your hair away from your face. Lightly run your fingers through your hair and mist with  Organix Renewing Moroccan Argan Oil. Super easy! :)

New imPress Nails Review!

Hey lovies! I wanted to write a quick review on the new imPress nails from Broadway Nails. I ordered a new pair of shoes from Shoedazzle (www.shoedazzle.com - amazing shoes!) and they gave me a free box of the imPress nails. I was very anxious to try them out and very curious to see how they compared to the old school press on nails. The last time I tried press on nails was when I was around 13 or 14 years old! lol. I didn't like them that much because they would fall off after only a day or two or if any pressure was applied to them in every day activities. It was so embarrassing when one would just fly off your finger in public! So needless to say I was curious to see how the new imPress nails compared.

They come in multiple colors and and designs. You get the nails in a plastic nail polish bottle. They come in different sizes to fit your nails and a cleaning pad infused with alcohol to clean your nails. Be sure to use the cleaning pad if you want them to last longer. They were super easy to apply! After you apply them you wait 30 minutes before you clip and file them. You don't have to clip them if you like the length. They have long, medium and short nails.

I kept the nails on for about 5 days. After day 3, I felt like one was coming loose so I went ahead and replaced it. Other than that, they never came off. They stayed on pretty well. I was actually really impressed! Especially since I'm a mother of a 2 year old son and I'm always doing things with my fingers. The package came with a coupon, so I went ahead and bought some more because I liked them so much! Definitely give them a try! I don't think you'll be disappointed :)
