Tarte Lights Camera Lashes Mascara Review

How's it going guys? 

This is going to be a review on the Tarte Lights Camera Lashes Mascara. 

I got this mascara during Ulta's 21 days of beauty sale. It was $10, regularly $20. 1/2 price is a great deal! Sorry I wasn't able to post this up in time! I had high hopes for this product because people all over YouTube said that it was really good. When I look for a good mascara it has to hold my curl, give me lots of length and volume, and it has to not be too clumpy. I normally purchase waterproof mascaras because they hold my curl much much better but for the sale they only had the normal kind. After giving my lashes a good curl, I applied this onto my lashes and unfortunately the curl dropped right away. It gave my lashes little length and volume but it wasn't too clumpy after two coats. However I did find out that I LOVE this mascara for my lower lashes. It makes them look super full and long. I have been looking for a good lower lash mascara. So overall this mascara wasn't a total waste but it didn't work for my top lashes.

Owl Nail Design

Hey, what's going on guys?

Products Used

• CND Stickey Base Coat
• China Glaze Secret Periwinkle
• Revlon Gold Coin
• Sally Hansen White On
• Sephora by OPI Dear Diary
• Rimmel London Hot Black To Go 
• Milani Nail Art Yellow Design
• CND Super Shiney Top Coat 
• Medium Size Dotting Tool
• Small Dotting Tool

I can't take credit for creating this design. It all goes to Jenny from MissJenFabulous on Youtube! I have mentioned her before but go check her out on Youtube if you haven't! She is amazing! 

Let's get right into how I made this cute little owl! First you need to paint all your nails two coats of Secret Periwinkle except for the ring finger and thumb. Those two fingers you will need to paint them two coats of Gold Coin. Let the gold completely dry and then take Dear Diary and paint two coats of that a little more than 1/2 way up the nail. Next take White On and your medium dotting tool to make two dots next to each other touching both the nude and gold for the eyes. Take Hot Black To Go and your small dotting tool and place two black dots right inside of the white ones for the owl's eyeballs. And then, use your small dotting tool again with the Yellow Design and place it below the eyes and drag downward just a little bit for the nose. Lastly, again take your small dotting tool and make some gold dots along the edge of the nail. There you have it, an adorable owl design!

"Dotticure" Design

Hello guys! Nail tutorial time! 

Products Used

• CND Stickey Base Coat 
• OPI San Tan Tonio 
• Sally Hansen White On
• Sephora by OPI What Aura Gonna Wear
• Sephora by OPI Paisley Attention to Me 
• China Glaze For Audrey
• CND Super Shiney Top Coat
• Small Dotting Tool
• Medium Dotting Tool 

I saw this design on Pinterest and fell in love with it! It is such a cool design that looks really complicated to do but it is really simple! 

Let's get started! First you need to paint your nails two thin layers of a nude/tan color. Wait for that to dry and then with a blue/green color and your medium dotting tool, make a dot either at the edge of your nail or in the corner below your cuticle. I just alternated between where I placed that dot on all my nails. After that step is complete, take your orange and make a dot going in a sideways "C" shape. Repeat the same thing with your pink and white. That is it! Super simple and easy to do!  

~Hope you try this out!~

Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray Review

Hi guys! It's been a while, but I am back! 

I am so thrilled to be finally doing another review! This time it is on the Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray. This is the travel version and it retails for $14 at Ulta. The full size I believe is $30. 

Time to get onto the review! I think that for $14 it is a decent value. You get 1.0 fl oz and that is definitely enough to give it a good shot to make sure that you like it or not. I am in love with this product! My eye makeup usually smudges about two hours after I apply it, but with this on my makeup has lasted a whole 12 hours with absolutely zero smudging. Not even joking. I am so so impressed! What you do is you finish applying all of your makeup and then spray 1-2 spritzes onto your face and let it absorb into your skin. Easy as that! 

Recommend? For sure! If you are looking for something to help your makeup to stay on literally all day and night, go and try this product out!

Process

This is a super simple design to do. All you do is paint your nails with a white/light pink color. Next take your small dotting tool and make a five dotted flower starting on the right edge of your nail. Then do the same with your other two colors. One flower in the middle and on the left edge. Wait for that to dry and then take the copper color with your super small dotting tool and place a dot in the center of each flower. Lastly to seal in your design, put a top coat on and you are finished! Super pretty and simple design!

Abstract Polka Dots Design

Hi guys! 

I'm back with another nail post! This one was inspired by the phenomenal MissJenFabulous on YouTube! I am sure you already know who she is if you enjoy doing nails, but if you haven't go give her some love and support. :) 

 

How do you guys think that I did in comparison with Jenny's?

What did I use?

• CND Stickey Base Coat (BEST BASE COAT EVER) 
• Sally Hansen White On (White) 
• Rimmel London 820 Hot Black To Go (Black)
• Sephora by OPI What Aura Gonna Wear (Pink)
• Milani Nail Art Yellow Design (Orange/Yellow) 
• Sally Hansen Diamond Shine Top Coat          

Now onto the fun part of how I did this design! 

First you want to start off by painting all your nails except your ring finger with two coats of black. On the ring finger you need to paint two layers of pink.  

After that has dried, take your pink polish and go 1/2 way up all of the black nails and try to make the top even but it doesn't have to be perfect. On your ring finger do the exact same process but with the black instead. 

Third thing you want to do is take a large sized dotting tool and dot three dots along the top of your pink polish that you just applied. You guessed it, use the same technique on your ring finger but with white dots. 

Next, put three white dots above the black ones and on the ring finger but three black ones! 

Time for more dotting! You want to take your black polish and put a row of dots with a medium dotting tool below the three dots that you just finished.  And white on top of the black three dots for the ring finger. 

Even more dots! Take your white polish with a small dotting tool and put a line of curved dots above the black and white set. Also use that white and dot it inside of the black dots that you put below the three large dots. Opposite for the ring finger. 

Second to last step! Take an orange/yellow polish and put it right smack on top of all your white dots. You put the white below the orange/yellow color because the white helps the color pop on a dark base. 

Final step! Put your favorite top coat on to seal in your awesome design! 

This design definitely takes time to do but I think that it is well worth it because it looks really interesting and pretty!

~Hope that you were able to follow my directions and recreate this nail design!~ 

♥ Have a great day! ♥ 

Watercolor Design

How is it going guys?

Items Used

• CND Stickey Base Coat
• Small Dotting Tool
• Sally Hansen Insta Dry Night Flight (Black)
• Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear White On (White)
• Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Mint Sorbet (Mint)
• Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Pinch of Punch (Purple/Pink)
• Zoya Pippa (Yellow)
• Butter London Primrose Hill Picnic (Hot Magenta)
• Sally Hansen Diamond Flash Top Coat

I think that is an absolutely stunning design for the summer time! It is so fun and colorful next to the sophisticated black polka dots. I got this idea from a YouTuber and her channel is called YoungWildAndPolished. Go check her out, she does incredible nail art! 

This is a really simple design to create but it looks like you spent hours trying to master it. All you do for the abstract part is take your small dotting tool and make little blobs of each color, the messier the more interesting it looks! For the polka dots, I would recommend that you use a larger dotting tool instead of the small one because the larger one make the dots more professional. But, if you like you can definitely still use the small dotting tool, it is totally up to you. Super simple and cute!
