love..

So I found this picture & I just had to share since I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!

Shu Uemura

I love lashes real & fake, I think they make your eyes & face even more perfect.

unfortunally I have the worst lashes & there is only one eyelash curler that curls them to perfection && they stay curled for a while. (which with my lashes it is very very rare).

Shu Uemura is know for having the best eyelash curler and it is beyond true!

This amazing little tool, does its an amazing job with out snagging or pulling like most regular eyelash curlers. If you havent tried it or dont own one, I suggest you make the investment like now.

Time is everything

So one of the best tips that I have learned and want to share is TIME, when ever you are getting ready and doing your make up, take your time. Don't rush it, having the right tools is also a must but I have been guilty of not blending right because I'm rushing out of the house. So now my morning routine gives me plenty of time to blend & just have my face looking flawless. So make sure you don't rush.

A MUST HAVE!

Storing your makeup is a MUST, your makeup cannot just be laying around the house, I love organizing my closet & my makeup cases are no exception. SO below are some great cases to invest in to organize your makeup.

Try Cabbodles (available at Target, Walmart ect)

$20-$30

this small case is super cute & keeps everything organized.

This is my FAVORITE case, because it has TONS of room.

(i have the Sephora one $225, but Makeup Forever & MAC have one as well)

Cult Nails

I have added a new obsession to my list: NAIL POLISH!!!, I change the color of my nails about every other week. As my roommate puts it I change the color like most people change their FaceBook profile pic.
I love trying different colors SPECIALLY colors no one else has used. On the search for a new hot color to try, I found NAIL CULT & order a couple different colors. I love that all the colors are different then from what most brands have out now. So take a peak and let me know when you have become hooked!.
I will post pics of the colors once they arrive.

SUMMER: Light or Dark

This summer so far has been a bit chilly in LA, but as always having great hair is a MUST.. I don't care of its raining or the sun is out. ( I prefer the sun) and having a great hair color is always a great start.
For the summer I usually go lighter and winter darker, I think most people do their hair lighter in the summer do to the sun exposure. Well this year I did light caramel during spring then Black for the summer.
So this summer Ladies are you going DARK or LIGHT?
Check out Elle for 2011 summer/winter trends & color ideas.







My 2 favorite colors:
Caramel Brown w/ honey && Jet Black

Bumble & Bumble : Curl Conscious Calming Cream

Curly hair is sexy & amazing but sometimes it can get out of control with all the frizz. A few weeks back I tried Bumble & bumbles shampoo & conditioner and i was liking it, earlier this week I was at Target and saw their curl conscious calming cream && after 2 days of using it.. I am in LOVE!, this calming cream helps soften and smooth your curls (which mine NEED ) this works if you have natural or chemically treated curly hair. So if you have curly hair this product is a MUST in your bathroom. You can purchase Curl Conscious Calming Cream at a Sephora or Target near you. (priced from $28-$87)

I LOVE CURLY HAIR <3

Item of the Week: John Paul

My item of the week is a beauty product but for dogs!, ok so I LOVE my dog but after a walk outside.. those paws are going nowhere near my bed. I went into Paul Mitchell because I wanted to try their new dog shampoo and found these Ah-MAZING wipes!!, so now after every walk, I wipe his paws and let him roam around the house.
They also have wipes for their ears and some for their teeth && gums.
So if you have a dog, make sure to drop by a beauty supply or pet store and pick one up!. for $13.. there is no excuse as to why your pet shouldn't be pampered.

SOMEDAY by Justin Bieber

Well it seems like Justin Bieber has expanded from music to nail polishes to now a perfume.
This perfume is set to be released in July. This fragrance is a young, fun & flirty fragrance with notes of jasmine,wild berry, creamy florals, vanilla, mandarin & pear. The bottle I will admit is super cute! (although it kinda looks like Lola by Marc Jacobs)

"SOMEDAY by JUSTIN BIEBER is more than just a perfume: it's a fragrance full of the energy, passion, and confidence that pushes him to the top of the charts. It is a personal gift straight from his heart, a scent that drives him wild and makes the girls who wear it totally irresistible. So go beyond the music and journey deep into a world of possibilities—into the world of Justin Bieber. "

priced from $18- $45 ... will you be buying it??

Yogurt does the skin good

I personally LOVE yogurt and why not its good for you && your skin!
here are a few benefits behind this delicious treat.

Yogurts lactic acid & enzymes help hydrate & sooth your skin and help reduce wrinkles.  Yogurt leaves your skin super soft, while purifying your skin. Used as a mask it can soften your neck & face as well as minimize discoloration.
You can get these benefits by eating yogurt as well as applying it as a face mask.
 - Try Honey & lemon juice with yogurt to make a moisturizing mask.

So if you don't like eating yogurt, try it in a face mask.

Give back to your Community

I love giving back to the community and I was told about this amazing non profit organization and I HAD to share it with you and hope that you take time and participate!
D.R.E City Youth Exposure is based out of Los Angeles as well as Northern California.
This organization exposes middle school students who live in inner cities to new environments "The main focus of D.R.E. CYE is to enhance young lives through exposure, education, expression, and empowerment. Most inner-city youth are only exposed to things that are within a restricted radius from their homes and schools. The program changes lives by giving youth opportunities to travel and see something different outside of their own communities. Through exposition, youth can explore and learn about more options that the world has to offer. They are introduced to new places, lifestyles, activities, careers and professionals. The goal of the program is to open young people's eyes to a larger world that seems out of reach for many, due to unfortunate environmental and financial circumstances. "

Black Eyeliner

I was talking to a coworker about eyeliner and how she avoids using black eyeliner because someone told her not to because her eyes appear smaller. I personally LOVE black eyeliner and my eyes are tiny and is till use it. So it got me thinking, how many women avoid certain eyeliner colors or eyeliner all together because of what someone told them? Black eyeliner adds definition and brightness to your eyes, when you apply top & bottom its when it makes your eyes appear smaller. Black eyeliner should be something everywoman should have in their makeup bag, because it is versatile and can help you create from an old Hollywood glamour look to a rock- chick look. Here are a few of my fave pencil eye liners. Try it!, I say if you love it then rock it!

Makeup Forever : Black 1k ($17)

Napoleon Perdis: Onyx factor ($18)

WetNwild: black black ($.99-1.99)
