Make-up Madness

Have you even gone shopping for make-up and got frustrated because you didn’t know what color to wear according to your skin tone and eye color? Well, I have, many times. And today I’m going to recommend some of my favorite products and what colors to wear depending on your skin tone, and eye color.
COVERGIRL pressed powder
I’ve tried many different foundations for my skin tone, and the best one I have come to so far is COVERGIRL. My favorite item they sell is their pressed powder. The kind I buy is in a blue zebra case, but there are a lot of other different ones. I use the skin tone medium light. My skin is very fair and so instead of going with my skin color, which is actually ivory, I went just a little bit darker so I don’t seem as pale. 
When you are buying mascara, stick to black, brown, or brownish-black. These colors are very common and since they are dark, they will draw attention to the white in your eye. It’s good to draw attention to the whites in your eye because it makes your eye stand out more. 
When you are buying blush make sure that you only pick a color that is maybe a little bit pinker than your skin tone. If you go crazy with the pinkest blush, you will turn out looking like a clown, and that is not good.
When you are buying eye shadow, remember to buy a color that looks good with your eye color. Eye shadow isn’t something you wear so it can match your outfit; it’s something you wear to make your eyes stand out more. There are different colors to wear depending on your eye color. This website explains the different colors to wear with your eye color.
When you buy lip gloss, make sure you buy a color that looks good with your skin tone, eye shadow, and blush. Here’s a tip, if you are getting your picture taken, DO NOT wear sparkly or shiny lip gloss!!! If you do, when you get your picture back, your lips might look blurred or they might have a line of light in them because you wore sparkly or shiny lip gloss.
OK, so this week I want to know what you guys want me to talk about next week! So if you have an idea, post it in the comments below! So just remember, make-up madness!!!

Oh-my-gosh-i-love-doing-my-hair-and-want-to-learn-how-to-do-more-hairstyles!

I love doing people’s hair! Cutting, styling, and pretty much everything! You don’t know this, so I thought I should tell you. I have a dream of becoming the world’s best hair stylist. Now I know you’re thinking that there is a 1 in a billion chance that will happen, so I have to tell you I even doubt that will happen. But since I still love doing hair, I want to become a hair stylist. There are many different hair styles to do, my favorite is a braid.    
Braids come in many different styles. First there is the classic normal 3 peice braid. First you start by separating the hair into three parts. You take the part on the left and put it over the middle section, making sure that they don’t mix. Then the section that stared on the left is now the middle. And the one that started in the middle is now the left section of the braid. Next you take the right section of the braid and put it over the middle section. And after that you just keep continuing. I know that it’s hard to explain but there is a website with instructions.
Next you come to the french braid. All it really is is the normal braid but as you go you collect other pieces of hair and add them to your three sections. 
Now that you know some of the common braids, you can try other cool hairstyles. Because as you know, there are way more hair styles, it’s not only braids.  Know all you have to do is go on a oh-my-gosh-i-love-doing-my-hair-and-want-to-learn-how-to-do-more-hairstyles exploration! J Happy Hairstyling!

Accessory Necessity

What can add color to any outfit, looks cute, and comes in many styles? If you guessed accessories, you’re correct! I would have to say that accessory necessity is an amazing saying!
There are many types of accessories. Some are scarves, jewelry, and hair accessories.
Scarves can be worn many ways and here are two examples. One way to wear a scarf is to fold it in half, put it around your neck, and put the side with the ends through the center of the other sides. Another way is to take you scarf, tie the ends together, put it around your neck, and then loop it around your neck one more time.
There are many different kinds of jewelry. A few are bracelets, earrings, necklaces, and rings. They come in a lot of different colors and styles, and can be worn throughout the whole year. You should wear warm, welcoming colors in fall and winter, and sharp looking, bright colors in the summer and spring.
Hair accessories are so important! The keep your hair out of your face, add color to your hair, and are so cute! You can use clips, bobby pins, head bands, and more. A helpful hint is that when you wear bobby pins, make sure they are pretty close to the color of your hair, otherwise it doesn't look as well. 
So just remember, accessory necessity! :)
