Crazy About Lipstick TAG

Calling out all lipstick addicts, there's a tag just for us! I got tagged by Miss Melissa Em who is an a very sweet Australian YouTuber. So the premise of this tag is to show some of your favorite lipsticks! It's as simple as that. There are lipsticks you use on a day-to-day basis, some you pull out on special occasions, and others that remind you of someone. If you're a lipstick addict consider yourselves tagged by me! You can make a video and leave it on the comments below or also answer the questions and do it as a blog post.

Face of the Day | Breast Cancer Awareness

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month so to honor those women who are breast cancer survivors and those who have lost loved ones to it, I've decided to create a wearable look that incorporates a lot of pink. Personally I haven't been affected by Breast Cancer but I have had family members pass away due to other types of cancer so I know how important it is to raise awareness. Women as soon as in their 20s should start being more proactive and do breast self-exams regularly. For more information about the breast self-exam and what abnormalities to look for I recommend you to look at this article from Cancer.org.

Halloween Tutorials | Parisian Mime

Paris holds a very special part in my heart. I've basically dedicated much of my education career into learning the French language, culture, and history so I decided to pay homage to the country I love in my first Halloween tutorial. Miming as a theatrical art form didn't begin in France, but many of the characteristics that are now associated with mime such as the white face came from French-bohemian mime Jean-Gaspard Deburau in the early 19th century. The image of the Parisian mime has been engraved into pop culture such as the mime short on the film Paris Je T'aime. If you want to become a mime yourself just find yourself some classic accordion music, look up how to do "the wall," and buy yourself some white paint!

Review | Second Star Designs Honey Citrus Luxury Body Bar

On the last day of FWSD 2013 there was a trunk show where all the designers had an assortment of clothes and accessories to sell to the public. Many sold pieces from their runway collection, while others added a couple of new pieces to the mix. As much as I wanted to buy a nice jacket or a dress, I frankly don't have the budget for a one of a kind piece. I walked through the whole upper floor of the Broadway Pier thinking I wouldn't buy anything until I saw the Second Star Designs booth and their wide assortment of organic soaps.

Get Ready with My Mom!

On Saturday my mom had to go to a wedding so it was up to me to do her makeup. I asked her if I could film for my channel and she said "sure," but knowing how she's still a bit shy in front of the camera I decided to turn this into a "get ready with me" type of video instead of having her talk. I hope in the future you get to hear her because she's quite a funny person, but I'll have to do some subtitling since she speaks nothing but good ol' Spanish. She asked me to do a smokey eye which is her default look to be honest (I guess she never quite outgrew the bold 80's and 90's eye makeup). I decided to put a modern spin on a smokey eye by using a beautiful MAC Mineralized eyeshadow that has very fine blue glitter.
