ESQIDO CRUELTY-FREE LUXURY MINK LASHES – THE STEPHANIE LASH

February 13, 2018 No Comments

False lashes are the perfect indulgence for those special occasions and nights out like Valentine’s Day, when you want to add a little more glam to your look. But, to be perfectly honest I was never really a big fan of them. I found them to be very uncomfortable to wear and honestly a complete waste of money – until now!!! In the past I had only ever tried synthetic lashes, although most brands claim that you can wear their lashes a few times over, I never really got more than one use out of them. But then I discovered ESQIDO!

A few weeks back I was contacted by ESQIDO and asked if I wanted to try and review a set of their cruelty-free Mink Strip Lashes!

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR LASHES, POST-EXTENSIONS – KEEPING YOUR LASH GAME STRONG!

January 1, 2018 No Comments

Good morning Beauties! Wishing you all a very Happy New Year! Today I wanted to share a few of my favorite tips for keeping your lashes healthy. Day after day we are following countless beauty trends to achieve the look we desire, but by far the most prominent trend in 2017 was eyelash extensions. We’re all a little guilty of wanting those sky-high lashes and this semi-permanent option allows you to roll out of bed looking like you just applied 3 coats of mascara without all the fuss. As per my November post “ALL GLAMMED UP” , I was drawn in by the trend and had the most talented lash artist create the most glamorous set of Mega Lashes for me.…

ALL GLAMMED UP – EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT LASH EXTENSIONS

November 23, 2017 No Comments

Good morning my loves! I am so excited to share this new post with you. If you are anything like me, big beautiful lashes are one thing I never leave the house without. Unfortunately for me this doesn’t come naturally, it requires multiple step by step techniques to make my lashes look big and bold. Although I’ve experimented with false eyelashes, I am not a huge fan of how they feel on my eyes, and would prefer applying a few layers of mascara instead, but this still can be time-consuming. And without the right products I never seem to get the results I desire. Luckily I have discovered Rosalash! Today I am going to share everything about my lash extension experience with you – why I love them, maintenance, where to go, and more!…

ALL NATURAL DIY MAKEUP REMOVER

November 8, 2017 1 Comment

Good morning my Beauties!!! Happy Wednesday! I thought I would share another one of my favorite all natural DIY beauty products. If you care about natural skin care and healthy glowing skin, then I think this is the perfect product for you to try. A simple two ingredient recipe that will have you tossing your drugstore version aside.

Although makeup remover can be quick and easy to apply, it contains many active cleansing ingredients. Unless washed off thoroughly after each use a residue is left behind exposing your skin to excess amounts of various chemicals. These ingredients can result in dry irritated skin. Most makeup removers also contain added fragrance and preservatives such as formaldehyde.

What’s the most important thing you consider when choosing a makeup remover? …

EYESHADOW TO MAKE ANY EYE COLOUR POP

March 1, 2017 No Comments

When choosing which makeup colours to use there are no rules set in stone, but one thing is for sure not all shades will suit everyone. Your overall makeup look will look more polished if you take into consideration the colour of your eyes, skin and hair. In this post we are going to focus all of our attention just on the eyes. The eyes can tell so much about a person, so play them up and accentuate one of your best features to make them pop. This can be achieved by simply choosing the right colours.

BEST SHADOWS FOR YOUR EYE COLOUR

Blue eyes

shades of orange such as terracotta, peach, copper and bronze will warm up those baby blues and really make them pop
gold and brown neutral shades are always a compliment, great for a subtle everyday makeup look

Brown eyes

virtually any shade looks flattering on brown eyes
vibrant purples and rich plums will highlight the clarity of your eye color
a mossy green shade will lighten and brighten those brown eyes

Green eyes

enhance this beautiful rare eye color rather than let your makeup take center stage
warm neutral shades and purple will accent your green eyes and make them pop
use a shade of green slightly darker than your eyes to create depth
rust and cranberry will also look very beautiful

Hazel eyes

use bright violet shades to make hazel eyes stand out
apply warm neutral shades to enhance your natural gold flecks

Gray eyes

amplify your unique color with cool shades of blue
pewter gray, and shimmery charcoal shades will help to add depth and enhance your natural hue

If you are looking to step outside the box a bit when it comes to eye makeup, I have found some fun and vivid shadows that will work with every eye color. …

MAKEUP REMOVAL ESSENTIALS: 3 SIMPLE STEPS TO BEAUTIFUL SKIN

February 15, 2017 No Comments

Proper makeup removal is an essential step to keeping your skin healthy. Going to bed with your makeup on will leave your pores clogged, preventing them from naturally balancing the PH of your skin.

You should always be washing your face twice a day. When you cleanse your skin in the am, you are washing away all the toxins that were released while you slept. When you cleanse the skin again in the evening, you are removing all the makeup and impurities that may have accumulated on your skin throughout the day.

3 steps to proper skin care:

Cleanse – start by removing all the makeup from your eyes and lips with a gentle makeup remover and cotton pad, then wash your face with a cleanser best suited to your skin type.
