Everybody has amazing eyes, they are all so different and unique. So here are a few tips to make your eyes stand out if your having difficulties.
For blue eyes.
If you have blue eyes, you should stay away from blue eye shadow and blue eyeliner. A lot of times you have probably heard somebody tell you that if you want your blue eyes to stand out use blue eyeliner. If you want your eyes to pop go for a dark brown or black eyeliner, this goes for all eye colors. If you want your blue eyes to pop you should stick with earth-tones with a bit of a purple base, like browns, taupe and colored grays. If you want to switch it up a cool colored rose color will make your blue eyes beautiful!
For green eyes.
Since green eyes are one of the most rarest eye color in the world, why wouldn't you want them to stand out?
To make your greens pop you should try different purple shades for more of dramatic look. If you want your eyes to stand out but look more natural, you should try more of a soft mocha brown or brown colors with orange tones. Also stick to more of a brown or black eyeliner.
For brown eyes.
Luckily brown eyes can get away with basically any eye shadow color. Mainly greens, purples and pinks make brown eyes pop! Brown eyed people should stick with a brown or black eyeliner. If your brown eyes have gold flecks in them then you should try a gold shimmer color.
For hazel eyes.
Hazel eyes are very similar to green and brown eyes. If you have hazel eyes you should try earth tones and greens,pink, warm purple colors and golden colors.
You should also use brown or black eyeliner.

Drugstore vs. High end products.
July 12th 2012,
drugstore vs High end cosmetics, is there really a difference in the quality? Not really.
Yes, we all may be tempted to buy high end cosmetics, because of there perfect packaging or that line "You get what you pay for". But before you go out to Sephora and break the bank maybe you should try to consider a drug store:)
Mascaras,
Truth is, Drug store mascara is not ANY different from high end mascaras. In some cases drug store mascara can actually be better then high end stores. Studies have even proven there is no difference, only in the price.
Eye shadows,
There also isn't much of a difference in eye shadow! Yes, high end eye shadows can be extremely nice, full of pigment and last all day. But who says you can't find a dupe at a drugstore? Chances are you can, so before you spend $20+ dollars on a tin of eye shadow try to find a dupe:)
High end eye shadows can be a hit and miss, same goes for drugstore but if you find the right products its not any different.
(Formula's physician sells amazing eye shadows at the drug store;)
Foundation,
Foundation is a different story, its said to be defiantly better in high end stores. Although you can still find a few good foundations in the drug store. I think the key to having a good foundation is by really paying attention to your skin. If its oily, go for a oil free foundation that you can find at the drug store.
Lipstick,
Lip stick is also around the same quality, there can be hits and misses in both the high end stores and drugstores. As long as you find a good brand in the drugstore like Revlon then your lipstick should look great!
Blush, bronzer and powder.
Once again, its all the same. Like I mentioned up above, there can be hits and misses but if you find the right product your sure to love it!
So before we go out and spend all our money on high end products, take a look at what the drugstore has to offer:)
TIP: Skip the $24 eye shadow primer, instead pick up a $1 concealer stick by n.y.c and use that as a primer. Works like a charm and keeps my eye shadow lasting ALL day!

Product rave!
July 11 2012,
I'v heard a lot of mixed feelings about repairing hair masks. Some people say not to buy them because they simply DO NOT repair your hair and just temporarily bond your split ends together, other people say it works wonders and brings their hair back to life. So I thought I would try one out, a few days ago I went to Shoppers and bought a few hair products, one of them including TRESemme rejuvenating mud masque from TRESemme's nourishing rituals line.
Three things that I was sold on were 1:It was a reasonable $5.99 2: I really liked the packaging and 3: The smell is super nice!
The first night I used this product I washed my hair and conditioned it and applied this product to my damp hair and left it in for around 3-5 minutes as the instructions said. While it was in my hair it was extremely smooth and silky, so smooth I could hardly keep it from slipping out of my hands!
After I washed it out and my hair was dry I did see a slight difference, my hair was softer and easier to brush/comb through. I wasn't exactly amazed at the first result but continued to use it..
Second shower I did the same routine washed it out and it turned out little better then the last use.
Third shower, same routine washed it out and my hair was left extremely silky and shinny. It leaves my hair much more manageable and healthy looking. As for the repair part of it, my hair is much more moisturized, frizz is no longer a problem and my split ends actually seem to be going away!
I love this product and have only been using it for 3 days!
I defiantly recommend this product if you have the 3 D's.
Dull, dry and damaged hair.
Of course everybody's hair is different so you may not get the same results but its DEFIANTLY worth the try!
Comment below what some of your favorite hair masks are:)

Today is the first day I have started blogging. Its something I'v been wanting to do for a while now actually. To start off I'm a beauty FANATIC! I'm fascinated by the world of beauty. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not a "I need to be looking beautiful everyday of the week" type of girl who obsesses over looks, but I love it and I don't really understand why. Maybe its because I love how much makeup can enhance your looks, or how you can collect it all. Point is I'm in love with it.
Aside from beauty I also enjoy fashion:) And when I'm not busy watching beauty tutorials I'm a normal down to earth girl. I love nature and the outdoors, I'm a very honest and trustworthy person. I'm not exactly sure how good this blog will work out, but I'm hoping it goes in the right direction.
