My Newest Beauty Secret! ♡

So recently, I had been having a problem with my hair. 
It was always knotted. 
And I don't mean the tiny, simply brush-through knots, they were large and impossible to get out. 
And it only happened after I slept, so I was confused on how to prevent it from getting so knotted until I discovered this: 
The secret is: scrunchies.
Yes, scrunchies.
But before you entirely exit out of this post right now, just let me explain myself. 
Before I go to bed, I put my hair into two pigtails using scrunchies. It is far from attractive, but it keeps your hair from getting tossed around and scrunchies prevent your hair from getting pulled out like regular hair ties do. If you also have a problem with knots, try this trick out and let me know how it works for you because I swear by it now. Have a great day lovelies! Bye! xx

My Favorite Spring Nail Polishes! ♡

I am a nail polish JUNKIE.
I have way too many nail polishes.
Whenever a new one comes out, I HAVE to have it. 
These are the polishes I picked out that are my favorite in the spring. 
ENJOY! And let me know if you'd like me to do a summer version of this when it gets into the summer months. 

Essie's Smooth Sailing-
This color is a lot lighter than it shows up on camera, but I'm not the best photographer so you know... it happens. This is a gorgeous periwinkle, purply-blue color and it has a bit of shimmer in it. 


OPI's Nantucket Mist-
I haven't heard a whole lot of hype about this color and I don't see why! This is one of my favorite nail polish colors. Period. It is a matte coral color and it looks especially amazing with a tan. (Which if you know me, that doesn't really happen.) 


Sinful Color's Mint Apple- 
When I bought this, I assumed it was a matte mint green color, like Essie's Mint Candy Apple. But it's not. It  is shimmery. After a while though, I really liked the shimmer so now I love this color and it's PERFECT for spring. 


Sally Hanson's Xtreme Wear Lacey Lilac-
Yes, ANOTHER purple color. But as you can see, this is very different from the first one. This is just the perfect lilac color and looks incredible on all skin colors. It is super versatile and makes me think of spring and the beautiful flowers. 


Sally Hanson's Xtreme Wear Blue Me Away!-
This is a tropical, medium blue color that I love to use on my fingers and toes. This color is also one of my favorites for the summer and it's super bright and makes me happy to look at. :-) 


Here some swatches of the colors you can more clearly see what they look like on your nails. I hope you enjoyed this post! I'm working on taking pictures for my blog, so I hope these turned out okay for you! Again, let me know if you'd like to a Summer Nail Polishes Favorites in a couple months. Have a great rest of your week. Bye! xx

My Drugtore Makeup Musthaves! ♡

Drugstore Makeup.
Great quality makeup for lower prices?!
I'm in!
Today I'm going to show you my drugstore makeup musthaves and the products I use everyday! So let's begin!

Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream-
I love this stuff. In the winter I prefer foundation of heavier coverage, but in the spring and summer, I like lightweight products that won't weigh me down. Not to mention, this has 8 benefits for your skin, including SPF 30. 


Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer-
This is one of the better drugstore concealers you will find. It's best for the under eyes because it's a highlighting concealer, but it also works well for covering blemishes. 


Maybelline Great Lash Mascara-
Another Maybelline product. As you can tell, I love Maybelline, but this is the only Maybelline mascara I've tried that I actually like. It has a relatively small brush, but it's great at getting to the smaller, inner lashes and it  doesn't clump. 


Rimmel Special Eyes Precision Eyeliner-
(I just noticed this image is blurry, urgh!) 
I randomly bought this on a whim one day and this is my favorite pencil eyeliner. First off, it's very inexpensive and it has great pigmentation. It also great at staying in place and never smudges. (What more could you ask for?!) 


Ulta Blush-
Unfortunately, this blush has no name because I got it in an Ulta free-gift-with-purchase set, but I love it. It's a very natural rosy pink color that instantly brightens your face and lasts all day. 


Revlon Lipbutter in Strawberry Shortcake-
You have probably already heard about these before and I am one of the last ones to jump on this bandwagon, but I too am another fan of the Revlon Lipbutters. They're beautifully pigmented and are more moisturizing than regular lipstick. This is my favorite shade because it's natural and great for everyday wear. 

You probably noticed the light change in these pictures, sorry about that! The sun kept wanting to hide behind the clouds and today was my first attempt at taking pictures for my blog. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this post and let me know if you'd like me to do a "Highend Makeup Musthaves." Have a great Friday! Bye! xx
