How to: Curl your Hair

Hi everyone. This  is going to be a post on curling your hair. I am using the Conair rollers which were about 20 dollars at Target. It is so easy and looks so good. It is easier to curl someone else's hair but you can still curl your own! All you do it take about a section one inch long and roll the roller and once you can not roll it any more you clip it. I like to leave them on for at least 20 minutes. If I do them in the morning I leave them in when I brush my teeth and do my makeup and it is about 20 minutes! Here are some pictures of me curling my sisters hair! She has very thick and straight hair so if it stays in her hair it will stay in anyones! I like to stray them with hairspray at the 'during and after part' also don't forget heat protection before.

Before

During

After

You guys do not understand I am so happy because I really want to use these as eyeliner I got the Black Bean and Dark Brown and get a really smudgy eyeliner look. (Let me know if you want a tutorial with an eye look the way I would wear the Jumbo Pencils!) So that was my haul hope you enjoyed.

How to Fix Bed Head!

Hi everyone! This is going to be a post of what I do when I have messy bed head and only have 5 minutes or so to get ready and out the door! What I do is I put if up! I do NOT like to walk out with just a plain ponytail or bun. I love to glitz it up and make it look nice (almost as if I was to have planned to do that!) 


Here are some hairstyles I like to do: (sorry but you might have to go on youtube but I will tell you what to type in if I cannot explain it!)


1. The fishtail braid. I like this a lot better than a regular braid because it looks cuter and also it is different! I like to make my braid on the side and messy. :) All you have to do is type in ' how to: easy fishtail braid ' and click on any one you want!  

I got this photo from www.iknowhair.com

2. I am not sure what to call it so I will call it this, The pony tail that you take a piece of hair and you wrap it around so it looks like your hair is put up by your own hair! hahaha


What you do is you put your hair up into a pony tail, high, low, side middle, it does not matter. Then you take a piece of hair from the pony tail (not from the top but the bottom) and wrap it around the hair tie. Once you get to the end of wrapping it just bobby pin it under the pony tail!

I found this on google images

3. French Braid Side Bun




This is the hairstyle where you french braid the side of your hair and then put in in a low bun. Type this into youtube to learn how to do it type in ' French Braid Side Bun Tutorial ' I love this look because it is soooo easy!

I got this photo from www.vfashiontrends.com

Hope you enjoy and let me know what your favorite "bed head" hair style is! Also let me know if you decide to try one of these styles!

Want Smooth Silky Straight Hair?

Hey everyone this is going to be a review on the CHI Silk Infusion! I love love love this product. What I do is I squirt a dime sized amount into the palm of my hand and when my hair is halfway dry I put this in my hair starting from the ends making my way up to my roots! Then I finish blowdrying my hair and once I am done it is straight, silky, and de-frizzed but I still like to go over my hair with a flat iron about ten minutes later because it is not good to straighten your hair directly after blowdrying! 


Before I flat iron my hair (I use a red CHI) I put a stray heat protection in my hair (super inmportant) and then when I run my flat iron over my hair it is so silky smooth I can't help but play with it all day long! 

I got this photo from http://www.kaboodle.com

If you have this let me know what you think of it! If not let me know what you use to make your hair silky and de-frizzed!


P.s. I bought everything mentioned in this post with my own money! I am not being sponsored by CHI

Review: Elf 32 Eyeshadow Palette

Hi everyone! This is going to be a review of the Elf 32 Eyeshadow Palette. I bought this at Target but you can buy this online at eyeslipsface.com for 5 dollars! These eyeshadow are so pigmented and to be honest they do not last all day but it helps to use a primer! In addition, they would be really good for Halloween because of all of the vibrant colors! I love the range of colors all of the way from neutral colors to blues, greens, pinks and purples to silvers and dark colors! I love this for experimenting with colors!

REVIEW: Elf Cream Eyeliner

Hi everyone! This is going to be a review of the ELF Cream eyeliner in Gunmetal. I love this eyeliner! It is so pretty and fun. I love to glam up an eye look with this silver! It is 3 dollars at Target or on line at eyeslipsface.com. It lasts for a while I am not sure how long because the longest is 3 hours and it lasts that long! I recommend this for any one that wants an inexpensive eyeliner that lasts about 3 hours!

Hope you enjoy!

I regret buying:
