Beach Waves in 5 minutes or less

Well, as many of you know, I'm lazy. But then again, we all are. And, if you have pin straight hair like me, it could get really annoying to curl it. I remember when I was younger no matter how much I permed my hair, it would still come out not curled at all, and curling irons back then didn't do that great of a job as it does today. Awhile ago, I used to curl my hair with straightening irons and that worked out okay. Except I didn't enjoy those times where I had to pull my hair using the iron to get that curling effect especially now that my hair is at waist length. So, I decided to purchase a new curling iron (40$ at winners retail at >100$) and gave it a go.


The straightener comes with 2 hair clips and a glove (so your hands don't get burnt)


This is how my hair looks when its pin straight.



First, start off with sectioning hair into 2 parts (left and right) and then at each side, part evenly from back and front making 4 even sections in total and then clip the front of the hair. 


I usually start off curling my hair from the back, so taking that entire section of hair, I wrap it around the barrel for exactly 60 seconds (count if you like) and then let loose. 



After curling both sections of one side of your hair, this is the result that you should get. 


Do the same for the other side. 


Finally, shake out your curls using your fingers and if you'd like, add hair spray to your curls for hold. 

End result. 
Note: for those of you whose hair cannot be easily curled, throughout the day, your curl will loosen and by the end of the day, your hair will be more wavy than curly at the bottom. For more of a wavy effect, instead of holding the section of your hair for 60 sections, try 30 seconds instead.

Anyway, this is a look that'll even make your teeth look whiter!(If you have yellow stained teeth like me...ewww)

Plastic Surgery Makeup (Without the need of Plastic Surgery)

Ever since when I was a teenager, I realized that my nose has been very flat =_= and truthfully, I have considered surgery or a nose injection (and I still am) because I don't have a nose bridge, and its really frustrating when I wear glasses because alot of the times, my glasses keep on sliding off, and of course, there's that beauty side (a flat nose, in my opinion, just doesn't look that flattering). So recently, I've been experimentation with make-up and discovered a way how to "fake" a nose bridge and as well as making your eyes seem bigger and your face slimmer.
Enjoy
xoxo.

This is how I looked before makeup

Quick & Easy Day to Night Eye Makeup

Ever since the first moonshadow baked Palette that Sephora featured, I've fell in love with it. Sephora recently brought out another palette, this time, featuring silver laced design called "In the dark". I love the colours that came with this palette, and it made eye contouring so easy! The top row have the lighter eyeshadow shades and the bottom row has the darker contouring shades to match! You don't necessary have to use the combo that's suggested, you can also mix and match the colours. They are so wearable, and sparkly!

So with that in mind, I've decided to do a really simple eye makeup that takes you from day to night without taking any makeup off! Instead, just layering it on.

I realized its been awhile since my last post. I've been meaning to do some few hauls, but I've never got around to it, since I've been so busy with school, with assignments, had my first midterm yesterday, but nevertheless, I finally got around to doing another tutorial. This time, using the same pink Majolica Majorca pink eyeshadow as the last tutorial. I think its a really pretty colour.

Simple & Fast Romantic Eye Tutorial

I have decided to create a fun and easy to do look with merely 2 shadows: dark pink + white. I believe that they contrast well with brown eyes. If you don't have brown eyes, you can always get those coloured contacts =)
