Sweet Start to 2016 | Giveaway!

I have never done a giveaway on my blog, so I have some very exciting news: I’ve linked up with a couple of other bloggers to host a giveaway worth $300! I thought this would be a really great way just to show how grateful I am to all of my readers, and also a wonderful way to start off the new year. Shall we get to the prizes?!
 How pretty is this pallet?! I have swatched it, and these colors are so opaque and gorgeous. I don’t personally have this Naked pallet (I wish I did!), but I have the Naked 1 and 3, and they are two of my favorites! Urban Decay makes such good eyeshadows.
 Wrap bracelets are super popular right now, and the black, white, and gold combo is so gorgeous and timeless!
 I also really love the clear glass bead; it makes these bracelets look so graceful!
 Okay, can we talk about how cute this mug is? I love the meaning behind this saying, because hard work often goes unnoticed! Good things really do come to those who work for them, and that reminder on a coffee mug (a.k.a. life in the morning) is perfect.
This is one of my favorite face masks. Ever. In fact, I just used it today after my shower! I use this once or twice a week, and it keeps my skin radiant! I always notice a difference after I use it, and it really helps to keep my pores nice and clean. Plus, it’s always nice to have a face mask on hand for pamper nights!
On top of all of these products, you will also win a $150 Visa gift card, and $10 Starbucks gift card! Overall, this prize package is worth $300, which is amazing! So, how do you enter? Just follow the directions in this nifty little box, and follow all of the other bloggers in the giveaway! Also, the giveaway ends at 12 AM on Tuesday, January 26th! Have fun, and good luck! πŸ™‚

Cinderella Inspired Prom Makeup!

I went and saw the Cinderella movie about a month ago and it was so amazing! Dare I say it’s even better than the original animated one?! All of the costumes, hair, makeup, and everything else was so gorgeous! I seriously fell in love within the first five minutes. I also love the message of “have courage and be kind” that they drive to the audience throughout the whole movie.
Since I loved the movie so much, I did a makeup look for prom inspired by it! I had so much fun doing this, and what girl doesn’t want to look like Cinderella for prom?!

 I used the colors in my Naked 1 and 3 palette for this look since they both have really pretty soft pinks! I wanted this whole look to be really glowy and soft since Cinderella really doesn’t wear a lot of harsh makeup in the movie, even during the ball.
I also used the “skintuitive” lipgloss from Tarte for this look, and it changes into a different color for each person! It was so cool watching the color change.
Here is my YouTube video where you can watch how I got this look! πŸ™‚
Well I just wanted to do a quick post showing this look! I’m a freshman in college so I of course am not going to prom, but I thought this might be helpful for those of you going to prom! I know I always had the hardest time deciding what makeup to wear for prom.
Have you seen the new Cinderella?

Thank you so much for reading, and have a wonderful day! πŸ™‚

Face of the Day: Hints of Pink

My classes this quarter are honestly really great – on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I don’t have class until 12:30, and on Tuesday and Thursday I start class at 9:30. Consequently, I look much more put together on the days that I start at 12:30! This look is from one of the days when I actually got up in a timely manner, so I felt like putting on some eyeshadow!
 I used my Naked 3 palette to create this look – I wanted a subtle smokey eye with pink tones so it wouldn’t look so dramatic for daytime! πŸ™‚
I really like how this look came out because it was perfect for looking just a bit more put together for classes. And, I’ve really been wanting to use my Naked 3 palette more! 
I also had some time to do my hair! I’ve really been loving braids lately because they’re so easy to do with any hairstyle.
What is your go-to daytime makeup look?

Thank you so much for reading, and have a great day! πŸ™‚
