Summer Makeup Essentials!(:

As you all know Summer is on its way ! The hardest thing about Summer for me and I'm sure a lot of you is figuring out what makeup you can wear without having your face melt away, burn, splotch, and become oily. Here are some of my favorite beauty products for Summer.

Start off by using a moisturizer with SPF, like this one by Neutrogena. This particular one is a firming lotion, depending on your skin type the lotion you choose may vary.  http://www.walmart.com/ip/Neutrogena-Healthy-Skin-Face-Lotion-with-SPF-15-2.5-fl.-oz./887636?_mm 

For Foundation I recommend a BB cream, BB creams have many skin benefits, and are very light which is perfect for Summer. This one by Physicians Formula has an SPF of 30 http://www.walmart.com/ip/Physicians-Formula-Super-BB-10-in-1-Beauty-Balm-Cream-Light-Medium-1.2-fl-oz/22610892 

A pressed powder to set your BB cream Cover Girl pressed powder  http://www.walmart.com/ip/Cover-Girl-Smoothers-715-Translucent-Medium-Pressed-Powder-.32-Oz/11027317

For eyeshadow I use a primer. Primer insures that your eyeshadow do not crease and that they stay in place. My favorite is Urban Decay's primer potion http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?skuId=2259135&productId=xlsImpprod5280439&navAction=push&navCount=1&categoryId=cat40006%20cat1090001

Don't neglect your pout, use a lip balm with SPF, my favorite is Jack Black Intense lip therapy http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?skuId=2211506&productId=xlsImpprod3730169&navAction=push&navCount=1&categoryId=cat90012%20cat80178%20cat120333

Top it all off with a Bronzer & Blush of your choice and you're good to go! (:

Next Blog will be about my favorite self tanners...stay tuned.

30 Day Challenge

Hi guys! So I recently took a challenge, and I would like to tell you a little bit about it. I definitely believe that what we put into our bodies, hearts, and minds we will get out. For instance if you are always eating fried, fatty, and sugary foods you probably wont feel the best and you might even get sick. But if you drink plenty of water, exercise, eat fruits , vegetables, and proteins you will feel better and have more energy. Same goes for our hearts and minds; if you cram it full of hate, explicit music, language, etc. You will most likely become what you see and hear, it doesn't matter how good of a person you are . Sadly I know this is true because I have experienced it first hand. A radio station my family listens to started the 30 day challenge, just listening to Christian music, uplifting and positive music for 30 days. Why? To see if you see a change in your attitude and yourself, I can almost guarantee you will! I am on day four of this challenge and I already feel different. Instead of listening to the usual explicit music, I downloaded Klove's music app on my phone which plays non stop Christian music, and I feel great ! I am not saying this is for everybody but if you would like to give it a try here is the link to sign up for the 30 day challenge. Please comment below if you sign up, I would love to hear how you guys are doing on your challenge.    http://www.klove.com/ministry/30-day.aspx?utm_source=external&utm_medium=localpm&utm_content=30day&utm_campaign=ongoing and while you are there pick up the free song of the week!! xoxo prettynpink (:

Your flaws are flawless

Hello my beauty babes(: !!
Today I just wanted to encourage you all to embrace your "flaws" your flaws are unique and even beautiful....If we all had no beauty marks, birth marks, freckles, gap teeth, stretch marks, etc. We would all look so boring. I have many many flaws and I have contemplated fixing them but if I was given the opportunity to fix them, I'm not sure I would. As much as I complain about my flaws I kind of like them...they make me, me.  So embrace them (: ! Gapped teeth are really in right now and modeling agencies are seeking out girls with a gap between there teeth I'm pretty sure no one would ever think that would be in, embrace and love your flaws. Shine on you crazy diamonds. xoxo prettynpink!

Quick update

Hey guys ! I am so very sorry I have not posted in quite some time, I've been pretty busy, but new blogs ARE coming soon!!! Since I've last been on I gained two new followers, thank you guys so much(: I love watching those numbers grow, please tell your friends to follow as well. Thank you again! xoxo, prettynpink.

Maybelline The Rocket mascara review

 

I recently purchased Maybelline's the rocket mascara, and I thought I would do my first review on this blog! If you like this review and would like to see more, please comment below. Don't forget to subscribe, I try to post a blog everyday! Thank you! (: xoxo -prettynpink

This is what the packaging looks like. I purchased it in the color
very black, but it also comes in blackest black and brownish black.
You can also buy the waterproof version for the same price in the
colors brownish black and very black. (see link below)

 





Before The rocket mascara

After The rocket mascara

Okay so as you can tell it made my eyelashes a lot longer...I will be repurchasing this mascara and it is definitely another one of my favorites. The brush isn't flimsy and the bristles are far enough apart so it will separate your lashes (which a lot of mascara applicators don't do for my lashes.) I bought this at Wal-Mart for $5.94 . Here is a link to Wal-Mart's online website if you would like to purchase it online or view details.  http://www.walmart.com/ip/Maybelline-The-Rocket-Volum-Express-Rocket-Washable-Mascara-0.3-fl-oz/22137495 The Rocket waterproof mascara

Chase your dreams

So a topic that has been coming up a lot in my life lately is following your dreams. Not settling for next best or mediocrity. If you have a dream, regardless of how small or insignificant it seems to other people, follow it...chase it, hold it tight and let it guide you. Don't let anyone, not even close friends or family talk you out of your dreams. If you are thinking well...I want to do this but I am scared because dot dot dot that just means it is going to be that much more amazing when you finally accomplish it. Think about it, you have nothing to lose! You can only go up from here. It is better to try and know then to never try and wonder what could have been. Easier said than done, I know. I have set a few dreams and goals for myself, but I seem to be talking myself out of them every chance I get. So maybe we can all take this journey together and achieve our wildest dreams ! Lose that weight, go for that job, enroll in college, try out for that team, go talk to that cute boy or girl from school, become a magazine editor, move to New York, eat better...whatever it may be you CAN do it !!!! Next time you start talking yourself out of your dreams remember this quote... "All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them." - Walt Disney

Benefits of drinking green tea

Lately I have been drinking ALOT of green tea, and when I say a lot I mean three or four cups a day, (for me this is a lot of tea). I just recently discovered that green tea has some amazing benefits. Here are a few of them; Clears up skin, boosts your metabolism, anti aging, digestion, cold and flu, anxiety, relieves joint pain, nausea, promotes a better sleep, hydrates, gets rid of bad breath, prevents cancer, and protects your liver. Although these are just a few benefits of drinking green tea I thought I'd share. (:
