This morning, I was sort of in a rush so I did a really simple eye look. All I did was tightline with my gel liner and then add 2 coats of mascara on my top and bottom lashes. (:

Black and White Dot Mani
Hi everyone! Last night I wanted to paint my nails but had no inspiration at all. Eventually I decided to try this dot mani I saw on Beautylish (:
This may be my favorite manicure so far. I've gotten 5 compliments in one day(:

Inspired Nail Art
I discovered one of my current favorite nail blogs from pinterest a few months ago. The blog is The Polished Perfectionist ( http://the-polished-perfectionist.blogspot.com/?m=0 )
The look that inspired me was this Dots and Roses Teal Version nail art she did. She also did one in pink, which is what I also did. Mine was more towards hot pinks though(:
I actually tried this look for the first time a few weeks ago but my topcoat smeared the polish :( And also I just got some cute nail decals to substitute where she used stamping since I don't have a Konad, although it is on my list. (:
So I'll include her look, my messed up look, and my good look(:

My favorite hairstyles
This is also lacking hair posts, I know. I'm sorry to all you "hair" post lovers, I'll try to squeeze in some more posts like this. But for now, just enjoy this post showing some of my latest favorite hair looks(:
1.) Sock Bun (I don't even know how to do it, my cousins girlfriend Tanisha did it for me)
2.) Curly down - I just wet my hair and add a little conditioner
3.) Straight - (though, I try not to use heat tools)
4.) Ombre beads (the color of my beads go from red to white)
5.) Side bun - My hair isn't really long enough to make a very big bun but I like the way this looks
6.) And my most current hairstyle, a girly mohawk! I really like my hair this week! It braided up the sides to that the remaining hair is in the middle like a mohawk but its straightened to the right with my bangs out(:
Comment some of your favorite hairstyles(:

Winged Liner
I'm really lacking beauty posts on this blog. I've realized I've done mostly nail related posts so if you followed for makeup, beauty, etc. I'm sorry(:
I'm working on it.
I think the most classic eye look besides the smokey eye, which I have yet to master, is winged liner. A lot of people have trouble with this, including me sometime. But this time I really liked the turnout so I thought i'd give some tips(:
Tip 1: Pinterest! I found lots of helpful tutorials and looks on pinterest to inpsire me!
Tip 2: Practice! I've failed at this look many times and it takes me awhile to get a flick I actually like so just keep trying!
Tip 3: Try different techniques! There are many ways to do winged liner. If starting with the wing doesn't work for you try starting at the center of your eye lid or beginning!
Tip 4: If you want a really sharp edge use tape!
Tip 5: Use a thin eye liner brush or angled eye brush!
Tip 6: Follow the natural shape of your eye! If you want a thin natural looking wing just draw a thin line but extend the line past the end of your eye!
Tip 7: Use liquid eye liner or gel liner! If you want you can try pencil but I prefer either of those too!
Tip 8: Add your own touch! Try tracing the wing with gold eye liner or making a double wing!
Hope these tips helped(:

3 in 1 Nail Art
I saw cutepolish had a new-ish tutorial up on how to do cartoon nails and it reminded me of the design on my to try list so I thought why not(:
I followed her tutorial on youtube so if you'd like to know how I achieved this look, check out her channel. (:
After each step in the process I took a picture and I chose 3 pictures that stood out enough to be there own design.
First, is kind of bordered nails with the top border. I've never seen this, have you?
Next, is basic border nails.
And last, are the cartoon nails themselves. I liked the 2 before designs better than the cartoon nail art because mine didn't really pop and make it look cartoon-y at all(:

Cupcake fingers
I've got cupcakes on my fingers, guys! (: No lie
To achieve this adorable nail look I followed cutepolish's tutorial pretty much exactly. But I used glitter for sprinkles (:
What do you think?
