Lorac Unzipped Palette Tutorial

It's been such a crazy month and it's only the first month of the year. Can we just stop and take a moment to appreciate that? It is incredible to me that the time has flown by so quickly. 2015 is here and I can't wait to share with you guys all the new content I have for my channel. Last video post I talk to you guys about this brand that contacted me recently, Hoops Baby! Today I want to show you guys a new eyeshadow palette I bought recently that has quickly become my favorite go-to beauty product. The Lorac line was only recently brought to my attention and I decided to purchase the not so popular Unzipped palette. It was the best choice ever! It has become my favorite eyeshadow palette and I can't go a day without using it! Here is a quick eye tutorial featuring this palette. I used it for my Get Ready With Us video and just had to show you guys in greater detail what I did. Enjoy!

Jewelry Unboxing feat. Hoops Baby!

Hey everyone! It's 2015 and I am opening the new year with my very first blogger perk video. I was contacted a few weeks ago by an LA based jewelry and accessories company called Hoops Baby! They specialize in all kinds of accessories that can be used day and night and for all occasions. 
Prices range from under $10 to over $90. 
When they asked me to pick a few pieces I was thrilled to be working with them. 
This week I recieved my package and immedietly filmed my unboxing video because I could not wait to see the products I had so anxiously been awaiting. Expect a more in-depth review in the near future as I style each piece with some of my favorite outfits. For now, I hope you enjoy my try on video.

Nasty Gal x MAC Lipsticks!


Hello loves! Today I am bringing to you guys the new Nasty Gal MAC Lipstick collection that recently came out. I am in love with the three lipsticks that are perfect for the winter time. All three are matte finishes and each is perfect for a glammed up look. To see how these lipsticks look and view a demo watch my video down below! Let me know which one is your favorite!


I did want to mention that I am very sorry, but I am postponing my 500 subbie giveaway until I reach 1000. I never thought I would reach 500 so quickly so I did a MAC Lipstick giveaway and now I'm a little tight on my budget. I really hope you guys understand. I do want to give you guys something amazing so that is gonna take a bit of work and effort to come up with. (Not only financially but creatively as well). Hope you guys understand.  I hope you guys are having a wonderful day and I will see you in my next video! Leave me video ideas in the comments below! :)

Day to Night Winter Makeup 2014 (Glam Makeup)

    Hello loves! Wow, I am finally reaching the end of this very painful semester. I love being an English major, but sometimes I wish I could take a breather. It's not easy spitting out three or more papers that each have to be five+ pages. But I will be talking more about that very soon. 
Today I want to talk about my makeup for this Winter season. Last year I did two videos with very different makeup looks (that you can check out here and here). For this year I wanted to make a video that transitioned from Day to Night so it could be easy, simple, and effortless. I think this look is really quick and simple for those of you just starting out to experiement with makeup as well as for more advanced girls. I absolutely love earthy browns and gold for this time of year. It is a bit unexpected and neutral so you can play around with your lipstick shade. I always feel this time of year deserves a night pop of color on the lips. 
I don't add any blush as I love only wearing bronzer, but if you prefer it than go right ahead and add your favorite! I would either go with Fleur Power by MAC or Breath of Plum by MAC as well as they are soft but buildable. My other lipstick choice would be Red Lizard by NARS to have the perfect shade of red. 
Hope you guys like this video and don't forget next week my giveaway will begin! 
I will announce prizes soon!
