The "Sunday of Summer" Look

I wanted to do a light and spring-ish look since Summer is almost over. Taking advantage of summer's bright and fun colors I put together this simple look which very easily adds a pop to almost any eye color. The "secret weapon" so to speak is the Light Blue eyeliner by Rimmel. I used it "thickly" along the lash line then went over the lash line with a thin black liquid eyeliner to make it pop even more. The rest of the look is simple, soft and pink. Ask below in the comments if you have any questions or need product suggestions. Have a great day, Gorgeous!!

Back to School Makeup with Affordable Products

Today I wanted to do a little Back to School look using all Affordable Products. Remember, use what you have. You do NOT have to have exactly what I have. You can even skip some of the steps and products. For instance, you can skip the CC Cream and just use some Concealer and Powder or vice versa. You could even use just the crease color for your eyeshadow OR just use the lid color. Do whatever you are comfortable with and like the look of. Remember, NEVER skip the sunscreen though. The CC Cream I used has an SPF in it, but if you want to use a moisturizer with SPF and just stick with Concealer that is perfectly fine. Ask any questions or for product suggestions in the comments!! Enjoy and let me know if you recreate this look with the hashtag #natslife
Have a great day, Gorgeous!!
