This week the spotlight is on the teenagers! Ive noticed from just going out to places that alot of the younger generation doesn't know how to properly take care of their skin because they rely on labels such as "moisturizing" "vitamins whatever whatever" or the typical "recommended by some huge hot shot doctor or Hollywood star" But i wanted to show you all a way that you could take care of your baby skin and look good while youre doing it! Sometimes you dont have to cake foundation on and wing your eyeliner every single day, now a days, the more natural and less kE$HA the better, not only for you but your skin too! Youre young so take care of your skin because I know I miss my baby skin! ;) 1. SKIP THE FOUNDATION!! (especially i you have bad acne!) instead of slicking th foundation on to look "better" use concealer to cover blemishes and whatever marks you dont want than follow up with a powder and or use a tinted moisterizer! 2. CONCEALER: never ever never rub the concealer in! always pat pat pat! it looks and blends better! 3. LIPS OR EYES- CHOOSE ONE! dont try for the full face make over, (unless youre a cheerleader getting ready to compete!) if youre heavy on the eye makeup (which is fine, some girls look good in it) than keep a nude lipe or a clear lip gloss and if youre heavy on the lips, keep a light eye, and not so much of a heavy line! it balances out and makes you look better! 4. CALM DOWN LADY GAGA! Youre young and beautiful, embrace that! If you have on foundation, powder, blush, liner, mascara, eyeshadow, lip liner and gloss... youre over doing it. A typical every day look is a "natural one". If youre going out than be my guest and make yourself look smoking! but if youre just going to school, tone it down! Seriously, some girls do not understand that they just need a good mascara, little blush, concealer and gloss for a nice look every day! SAve yourself some sleep too ;) 5. VASELINE IS YOUR BESTFRIEND - continue using this, especially this season! if youre having chapped lips, take a little sugar, warm water and a toothbrush and massage your lips, than apply a coat of vaseline for kissable lips ;) 6. GET THE WALLET OUT (sorry mommas!) - spend money on key products that will help your skin in the end - like concealer and foundation, these are better made for your skin, and will keep you looking good too! Buy the cheap mascara and eye makeup, those look the same as other generic products! But always test your products, Sephora really offers this option! 7. WHEN CAN YOU SKIP SUNSCREEN -NEVER! apply this everyday! Wanna look good in your 40s, 50s, or 60s.. DING DING heres your secret! 8. ROUND TIPS OR SQUARED FOR YOUR NAILS? - never let our nails go! Always keep them clean, clipped, and painted! 9. WATER LINE- you dont always have to line the water line, if youre going for a natural look, keep the the water line clear and just apply mascara! 10. OILY HAIR? iIf youre a blonde, sprinkle baby powder in your roots and your head will soak them up, if youre brown than buy a dry shampoo for your hair! 11. SHAVING LEGS- save it for the end of the shower! To avoid niks and cuts! 12. SCRUBS- your scrubs are just like the sunscreen, theyre good for everything, face, elbows, feet whatever! So why not use them!? 13. BEAUTY- ALWAYS REMEMBER ITS WHAT CANT BE COVERED WITH MAKEUP, POLISH AND HAIR COLOR.. AND THATS INTERNAL BEAUTY.. Let that shine! MUAH! <3 Love CeCe Marie!

Birthday makeup and OOTD

Lets not look like Rudolph this winter! ;)

Hey beauties! Now that the fall weather is out and the winter wind is in! Here's some great tips to protect and keep your skin in tip top shape for the spring break right around the corner! Tip #1: Drink water regularly throughout the day. When being outside, the wind will be hitting your skin like a baseball bat, it will be drying out your skin making it chapped! To keep it radiant provide your body with natural products, like water! #2
Give your skin steam treatments and steam baths. After the steam treatment, lock in moisture with a deeply replenishing cream, BB cream, lotion or gel. Try to shy away from the scented lotions, cute little bottles lotions, etc. those have perfumes in them that can clog up your pores and make you breakout! #3
Don’t squint in the glare of snow and ice. Wear sunglasses when necessary.
Protect your skin around eyes just as if youre applying eyeliner on your water line, squinting is just as bad as pulling on your eyes! with a richer, cell replenishing formula in winter.
#3 ALWAYS Protect your sensitive lips with lip balm or gel. Chapter lips don't make the chap happy! ;)
#4 don’t forget to moisturize the hands, ears, nose, and neck. Before you expose your skin outside!
Protect your skin with gloves, scarves, hats and mufflers when you go outside.#5 during those night when you're just relaxing inside doing nothing, throw a mask or scrub on your face to replenish any damaged skin you may have ruined on accident! Remember skin aging has absolutely nothing to do with age, it's just how you manage it! And last but not least #6 ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS use sunscreen! If you can not manage to keep up with the previous 5 tips, this one is the absolutely the MOST important one I can stress! So keep your beautiful faces flawless during this weekend! With love, CeCe Marie! <3

What's hot and what's NOT!

So recently I went through my makeup to pitch and sort out all of my stuff (too forever!!) and I found a few items that I didn't remember buying so I decided to give them a little review and rate, so for all you ladies that are getting ready to go to the store to refill on makeup... Check this out! The first lucky item I found was FERITY EYE SHIMMER: the color is "12 sun bronze" it's like a sandy tanish color! Super pretty! Unfortunately it's really loose and the shimmer goes EVERYWHERE every time I open it! It does look gorgeous on but sometime it s a mess putting on because its so loose so you have to reapply and touch up your face makeup after! I think I paid about $1.99 for it! I would give it about a 2 and a half! The next item is REVLON CUSTOM EYES SWEET INNOCENCE: I must have just picked this up because it came out a little while ago.. The shade is "010" it has 5 shades (smokey brown, tan peach, cream, deep violet, and peach) the colors blend really good together except the pigments don't apply very well so you have to use a lot :( I paid about $5.99 for it and it doesn't last very long, it's also very chalky! I'd give it about a 2! The next shadow is one that I picked up from Ulta (LOVE LOVE LOVE that store!!) it's called "NYX ES18 Sahara" I would definitely give this about a 4 and a half stars! It's a light golden champagne color and looks beautiful with hazel eyes! Good ideal color for the brown one and perfect for people who want shiny but not too shiny. It's really close to MAC Naked Lunch and its one of those items that are good to "just have in your makeup bag"! I paid about 5.99 for it (what a deal!) next up I have VICTORIA'S SECRET "sweet pot" flavored lip gloss! This is soooooo not worth the price! I paid $9 for this! It's way to think and literally only last about 20 minutes before a reapplication! I found this alot with a majority of VS products, even the primer and tinted moisturizer wasn't that good! Although I must say, it smells AMAZZINGGGG! Hehe ;) the last thing I found was MARY KAY LOOSE EYE POWDER PINK ORGANZA... I hate it. It's had a super cute Packaging but is soooo not worth the $14 I paid for it.. It's loose, the quality isn't opaque enough.. I couldn't match it with my skin tone! It reminds me of a little girls dress up makeup.. It's one of those product that you wouldn't mind giving away! Ladies.. If you want to look like a fairy princess.. This is definitely your product! :) so next time you plan on shopping, make sure you check up on the review! And if you want to know more about a product before you buy, let me know and I will do a review for you! Xoxo, love you all! -CeCe Marie! <3

Hey everyone!! My friend and I were recently at the mall looking around and I was the cutest scarf ever! The price was ridiculous though! My friend was explaining how she knew a girl who made her own scarfs and sold them for like $5 or so, but what was really cool was the fact that she made them out of old t shirts! yes!! old t shirts! So i googled it and looked around and theyre actually not that bad and simple to make too! all you need is an old tshirt,a sissors and 10 minutes! So first you take the shirt, lay it out, and cut it right below the arm pits straight across, than you cut (from the bottom of the tshirt) about and 1-1.5 inch pieces up about halfway up the shirt! After, you take each piece and flaring the pieces out by taking the top and pulling and holding all the way down to the bottom (some people even braid 3 of them together- cute too!) and taaa-daa you have a new cute scarf of your choice for the upcoming season!

Glamourously Awesome


Loreal BB Cream Vs Loreal BB Cream??

L’Oreal BB Cream Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream comes in four different shades; Fair, Light, Medium, and Deep. I paid about 8 bucks for this one. It comes out a grey color and then ends matching your skin tone. It reminds me of Estee Lauder Sheer tint release lotion (which is amazing). However the payoff is different. I wore it on its own for about a week. It's not the best but it's not the worst bb cream I've tried. You guys know I love my bb creams. I think I favor bb creams as of lately because I need something that doesn't take long to blend... I need to be out the door. This BB Cream states that it "delivers multiple beautifying actions; hydrates, corrects evens and perfects. Now most of you know that I have pretty good skin to begin with, so for someone like me yes all these things kind of hold true. I just think of it more as a tinted moisturizer than a bb cream. I also think it could be used as a primer. I'd say save your money on this one. I think that there are other bb creams out there that work better. Pros: Relatively cheap Primes the skin Gives light coverage Blends easy Cons: Doesn’t really do much to the appearance of the skin It’s more like a tinted moisturizer than a bb cream Speaking of bb creams that work better. L’Oreal Youth Code BB Cream Illuminator. Now I bought this because I was so confused at the store. I was thinking didn't I already get L’Oreal’s bb cream? I was a little surprised that they had two out. I paid around 13 dollars for this one. I just had to try it. I believe it comes in two shades light, and medium. I bought the medium, since I'm a little tanner these days. I immediately loved it. It reminds me of Garnier bb cream (which I love). The only difference is that it doesn’t leave me looking like a oily like Garnier’s does. (It has that oily sheen to it for about 10 minutes after you apply it). L’Oreal Youth Code bb cream looks flawless on my skin. It’s kind of a little peachy when it comes out. Smells a little like clay (like Garnier) but it is beautiful on the skin. It lasted me pretty much the whole day. Now the claims on the box state that it “evens, illuminates, perfects, moisturizes, and protects the skin. It said that in one week tone, and texture are improved and skin is healthier looking. Now I don’t know about all that but I like it. Pros: Covers well Hydrates Looks good on the skin Doesn’t leave skin oily Cons: Price is a little high for drugstore Smells like clay
