Summer Everyday Makeup

Hey guys,
I've been super busy with some work stuff, but I have a great post for you guys. Summer Everyday makeup!

Summer Makeup is so confusing for people, because everyone says different stuff, so I wanted to come up with a look that you can wear everyday or night and not look overdone.

Hayden is  my summer makeup icon, she knows how to work summer!

Moisturize SUN SCREEN AND PRIME NEVER FORGET THESE STEPS.
Start with a dewey skin, stick to tinted moisturizers/sheer/medium coverage foundations. Use a concealer instead to conceal any blemishes or acne.

Make sure to powder your face if you get a little oily.

Fill in your brows lightly, because nothing is unsexier then oscar the grouch eye brows that are smeared all over your face.

Skip the contouring and use a highlighter on your cheeks and nose area. Use concealer if you like a less shimmery look.

Skip the eye shadows for everyday and apply some liner and mascara instead. Dab a little color lip gloss or NYX matte lip creame and your ready to go.


For a night out, try applying a shimmery bronze color or gold all over your lid, and use a matte brown in your crease to define and deepen. You can even use a darker matte color eye shadow to define your crease. Add a little rouge to your lips and you're look is summer ready and very fresh faced.

V.S model Makeup Trick

Everyone wants to know what is the Secret behind Victoria's Secret Makeup!

There are at least 2 thousand Youtube tutorials trying to imitate the look, but they just never quite get it right. Well ladies I'm here to give you the one ingredient, that will blow your mind.

It's the simplest thing, yet no body has ever thought about it.












Victoria's Secret makeup artist base the gorgeous girls look on ; *Drum Roll* THE MODELS

Yes It's just that simple.
They don't have a set look, they simply have a style such as Natural with lots of contour/highlights.



 
Look at each of the models, they all have different makeup. The middle model has pinker eye shadow, while the one on the right has brown eye shadow.
It's all about individual beauty, its about making the girls look 100x better version of themselves.
The makeup artist work a more natural but with a glamor touch, they add sexy individual lashes, some black mascara and lots of highlight to give them the angelic glow.

 Here are some of my tips:
  • Highlight is EVERYTHING to the angels, because you can't be an angel without a heavenly glow.Use a highlighter that works for your undertone.. Warm go for Gold / Cool go for Pink
  • Lips are never overpowering and dark...Always go for a color close to your natural lip color, just slightly pinker..dab a little pink/clear gloss or balm over it. 
  • Lashes are EVERYTHING..but go for individual, they look more natural, and you can wear TONS without looking like a porcupine











  • BRONZER...An angel wouldn't be caught dead without a sun kissed tan or a gorgeous glow. Even if you're on the darker side, you have to use a nice tan, it will bring that glow to you.
  • Fill in your brows, but be subtle..no one goes for Oscar the Grouch look in the show.
  • Go easy on the Foundation, go for a Sheer-medium coverage one like Nars Sheer Glow or Maybelline Fit me
  • Make use of a concealer, as that will help you use less foundation and cover your imperfections.


  • Perfect your liner, you want to make sure you're not winging it too much if your eyes are not suitable for it. My eyes are HORRIBLE with winged liner, so I stop right at the end.
  • Pick a shade of eye shadow that is neutral and complimenting your eye color and skin. 


Here are some of the models, rocking out their own individual makeup looks;

Marisa Miller Makeover



Marisa Miller has NEVER been my favorite model, I'm surprised V.S didn't bash her, considering they weren't too kind to Kate Upton, whom I must say is quite mighty mighty.


I don't understand HOW and WHY she got an angel contract, I can easily assume she slept her way through it.

She's not an ugly girl, but she is extremely boney, has the worst walk, her hair looks matted and she just looks downright DIRTY.

I know I'm doing exactly what Skinny Gossip does, but seriously this Oompa Loompa needs to chill out on the fake and bake.
I decided to give her a Photoshop makeover to make her look exquisite. I think if she went stayed away from tanner and tried some retinol, she wouldn't look so busted.

Original
My Version
I decided to remove some off her orangey tan using a green yellow.
I opted to remove some of her shimmer using a blur tool..made her lips peachy and apply a yellowey highlight color on the cheeks.
I applied blur tool to get rid of her wrinkles and the matted hair look.


Did the same with her orangey skin, darkened up her blonde hair a bit using shadow. Applied a bright color to bring out her lips. Made her eyes a bit more gray and added a bright blue liner for a pop of color. Kept the cheeks sexy in a simple highlight.

200th Post Nutella Cookies

OMG I cannot believe I'm on 200th post, I am so thankful to all the visitors/readers, hopefully I will be posting another 200 :).

So to celebrate 200th post, I decided to post a delicious and easy recipe for some mouth watering Nutella Cookies.

1/2 cup + 1 tbsp all purpose flour
1 large egg
1 cup of Nutella
- Optional-
1/2 cup Chocolate Chips
or
1/2 cup M&Ms
or
1/4 cup Raisins
or
1/8 cup crushed almonds



1. Preheat oven to 350F. Combine flour, egg and Nutella in a large bowl and mix together with a spoon until dough comes together and no flour lumps remain. Stir in chocolate chips until evenly mixed into the dough.
2. Make dough balls, about 1 1/2 inch in diameter. Place on cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart. Press down slightly on dough so the dough balls are more like very very thick round disks rather than perfectly round balls. Smooth edges that may have cracked from the pressure of pushing down on the balls, so that you have thick round smooth disks.
3. Bake for about 10 minutes. Cookies should be mostly set, but might be slightly still soft in the middle. Let cookies cool on rack until completely set. Enjoy while still slightly warm or after completely cooled.

Shanina Shaik - The next V.S Angel

A lot has happened in 2013, the fall of Angel Miranda Kerr to fat shaming of Adriana Lima and Barbara Palvin.


A new angel has emerged from the shadows; Karlie Kloss, whom many believe is NOT V.S material.
In a heaven full of Brazilian Bombshells like Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio and more, I think it's safe to say that V.S should replace Miranda Kerr with another fellow Aussie Princess.

Shanina Shaik!


She's been a part of the V.S fashion shows for the past 2 years. She was a stand out in the 2012 fashion show, with her irresistible personality and alluring runway skills Shanina seems like the Natural choice.


Victoria's Secret is crowded with bevy of European beauties and Blonde Bombshells, I think the sexy mix of Shanina is definitely to set her apart from the rest of the hotties. Pakistani/Saudi Arabian/Lithuanian, so different and so sexy!


EVEN RIHANNA COULDN'T KEEP HER EYES OFF HER!

Shanina Shaik needs to be the NEXT Angel, what are they looking for? Her stunning peepers and rock hard bod is not the only step up she has on the other ladies. Have you SEEN her stage presence, it definitely kept me hypnotized

Checkout some more pictures of Shanina Shaik and tell me what You guys think!
