Glamorously Green

Hello beautiful ladies! I would be C'Priana, the girls CeCe mentioned in the last blog. I just want to swing on by and give you a little insight about me and what I am going to start doing. So as you know, the point of this idea is to experiment to give all of our lovely followers a variety of reviews, different age products and different styles of  blogging. Nothing much will really change as to the blogging for masks, beauty tips, and fashion ideas but what will change is the reviews on products that CeCe has been using. Her and I have different skin complexions, tones, sensativity levels and age, therefore I can provide her younger, teenage followers with ideas as to what types of makeup is better for your skin. As of right now, me and CeCe are actually using the same foundation (I like it too!!) which is the revlon color stay whipped! I absolutely love it, and my skin is so clear. Weirdly, my skin breaks out during the first week of using a different foundation and this foundation has not made me break out at all! I absolutely love it! I am not using a press powder as of right now, but within the month or so I will be switching from liquid foundation into powder so I will def have a review up soon! Cant wait to get to know you all! If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me! Im very excited to work with you all :)

My New Beauty Ambassador

Hey Guys!

I have a Beauty Ambassador! Her name is C'Priana and some of you might remember her from a video that I did a while back "Event Makeup"
Here is the link for that:

C'Priana or CP as some people call her is a senior in high school. She is committed to makeup like me! She will be running blogs and some social media apps for me. She also is dating this guy:

Isn't he adorable? He just happens to be cousin ;) C'Priana will also be testing out products that are suitable for her skin type to help give a variety of reviews instead of it being dedicated to people who have skin like mine. So I'd like everyone to take this time to welcome her to my team... this is long overdue!

Maybelline Fit Me Foundation

Hey Guys,

I don't know what it is about me but lately I've been giving drugstore products a second chance. Years ago I used to get hives from many of the drugstore foundations. But I have to say, lately they have been stepping up their game. My skin leans on the the normal to dry side. In the winter it can be rather dry. In the summer it's just "normal". 

A couple of weeks ago I was watching Wayne from Gossmakeup on YouTube and he mentioned that he loved the Maybelline Fit Me Foundation. Pretty much everyone jumped all over his back for mentioning that he liked a product that he tried. We all have different skin types. Certain products are going to react in different ways to different people. 

I found myself in the past being like those people who jumped all over him. When one person said that they didn't like something I just didn't try it because I figured I would hate it too. My idea behind it was that I didn't want to waste my money. Which that was fine except I wasn't being open to new things. Just because some hates something doesn't mean that I have to hate to it too. 

So I decided to give the infamous Maybelline Fit Me foundation a try and surprisingly I love it! Be warned it is really dewy. And I love the dewy look, especially for summer. I find that it lasted on my skin a good 7-9 hours (not as long wearing as Revlon ColorStay but it's not a matte foundation). It gave my skin a luminous glow that lasted a little while. Keep in mind that I rarely get acne or oily skin. I've been using it for about a month now and I've received compliments on my skin! It's a medium coverage so it does let my natural skin show through.

So here is what the company states about the foundation:

• No oils, no waxes, no nonsense
• Natural coverage that leaves skin the way it was meant to be…fresh, breathing, natural  
• Exclusive translucent base and lightweight pigments allow skin's natural highs and lows to show through
• Non-comedogenic, dermatologist-tested

I do agree with what they've stated (which is rare).

If you are interested in knowing more about this foundation be sure to stay tuned to my YouTube channel because I will be uploading a video next week!

Chihuahua Shoes

You all will probably think I'm nuts but I couldn't help but order these. I fell in love with them immediately. I swear sometimes I like to act like 8 haha!  I got these of Etsy and they just arrived today. Shipping took a little longer than expected but I'm starting to think that is just how it works on Etsy. The shoes are a little expensive $24 plus tax. I think my total came out to $30 with shipping and all. The quality is not the best but they are just too cute ! I didn't mind paying more than I thought they'd be worth because in the long run when I look at them they make me happy. Weird I know but that's  just how I am. I like that when I look down at my feet I see a cute little chihuahua looking back at me. I know that I'll look down and just smile. TOO CUTE!

Glamorous Green

It’s amazing how far drugstore products have come! For this look I used sleeks makeup palette in Storm. I used about 5 colors from the palette, blues greens, brown and even some gold. I started off using barely beige color tattoo by Maybelline as a base. I then started mixing the blue on the bottom (second from the first) and the forest green next to it. I created a “V” shape only on my crease leaving the lid bare. After that I applied the highlight to my brow bone I used the second color on the top row. Then I mixed in the matte soft brown color in between the highlight and the blue green color. Blend, blend; and of course more blending!! Once I liked the way it looked I then mixed some of my Show Girls Secret by HardCandy with L.A. Colors spring fling. It’s a vibrant green loose eye shadow. You guys know I love my Show Girls Secret!!  For eyeliner I did a slight wing with L’Oreal infallible gel eyeliner in black. For the waterline I used NYX’s Jet Black eyeliner. Once that was done I couldn’t resist putting on some false eyelashes and a decent amount of mascara. For step by step video instructions stay tuned for my YouTube tutorial which will be up within the week!

Chi product review

So lately I've been testing out these chi products that I always saw in the salon but never wanted to buy because I just assumed they were expensive! I found them at Tj maxx for about 15 bucks a bottle and the ones I got were the silk infusion bottle and the infra shampoo bottle. Which are super huge! They're about 9 inches tall and 4 inches wide! I started with the silk infusion which makes your hair silky and also look healthier! I just put it in after I straighten or curl my hair but someone people have said they did it before their hair styling! All it is is an oil that makes your hair healthier and look better! It also smells very good! And it last FORRREVVERRR! Because all you need it like an M&M sized drop to work through your tips! Next is the infra shampoo, this smells exactly like the chi silk infusion but definitely works too! I do see why they use it in salons and I must say, the price fits the product! I always can find at least one negative thing to say but on these products I am very pleased with the results I was and currently are getting! I recommend this to all of the "on the go moms" or "straightening your hair 24/7 teens" who don't have time to keep up with their hair or damage their hair more frequently than others because its almost like it "holds you over" a couple of haircuts too! Try it out and let me know what ya think! XOXO CeCe Marie

Beauty Butler

Hey guys!

So the other day I posted a video on my youtube channel that was about the beauty butler. Well they contacted me and said that they would do free shipping for the month of January. All you have to do is type the coupon code CeCe at checkout! How nice of them. It's truly worth it! It's my honest opinion. You should check it out! I love mine and I've been using it non stop. It's easy to just throw in your purse and head out the door! Especially for those who workout !!!  Here is the link :

Romantic Purples

Nail Polish Obsession

Hey Ladies!

So as of lately I've been obsessed with nail polish. I go through phases where one moment I love my nails the next moment I hate them! I've found a few colors that I love to pair together. I'll start with the lovely deep purple color. I take O.P.I's Lincoln Park At Midnight (2 coats) then Revlon's 761 Scandalous over top of it. It turns into this beautiful glowing color. Make sure to use a base coat and top coat for it. I also use a cuticle conditioner before hand (let it soak into your skin, it feels so good). And then after I'm all done polishing them I use quick dry drops (Drip Dry by OPI).

Okay now for the second one... gold nails! I love gold nails this time of year. I'm not one to follow trends so I'd rock these any time of the year. I follow the same steps with base coat, top coat etc. I apply Revlon's 925 gold coin (2 coats). Then I apply Revlon's Sequins over top of it. Followed of course by a top coat and then drip dry.

For base and top coat I use Seche Vite and for a conditioner I use the one by CND.

Oh I should have cleaned these up a little haha but you get the general idea hahahaha

I've received so many compliments on both these looks. The good thing is I found all of these (with the exception of Lincoln Park At Midnight) on sale! Woot woo !!!

Also as a side note (I can't get my nails to be perfect, I'm too impatient hah)
