HALLOWEEN MAKEUP TUTORIAL – TWISTED FAIRY
Hey everyone! I’m back with another Halloween Makeup tutorial. This time I created a “Twisted Fairy” look. To complete your costume all you need is a dress (maybe even one that you’ve torn up a bit) and some wings! I’ve linked the makeup I used in the info section of the YouTube video. If you’d like more makeup tutorials let me know! And to see more of my YouTube videos click here.
HOME TEETH WHITENING KIT & GIVEAWAY
If you’re a coffee and wine lover like me, than keeping your pearly whites… well… pearly white can be difficult at times. I’ve used whitening strips in the past and they seemed to work fine, but then again, I never actually tried anything else… until now.
HALLOWEEN MAKEUP TUTORIAL: SKELETON

FALL BEAUTY BUYS WITH NEIMAN MARCUS
Happy Hump Day my friends! I hope you’re enjoying your week and the new fall season. While it’s still a little warm here in Las Vegas, I can’t help but get giddy about all the fall trends. I recently had the opportunity to attend a blogger brunch put on by Neiman Marcus and ICanStyleU and was able to try out some of their new beauty products. They were all so amazing that I wanted to take some time to some of my faves with you. These pictures are all taken from my iPhone, so forgive me for the quality… but the products are just too good not to share!

MINIMALIST VIBES & HOW I’M HEALING MY HAIR
Happy Labor Day everyone! In my former life as a TV producer and reporter I would wake up and do full hair and makeup every day. Sometimes TWICE a day if I was doing a report later in the afternoon (by that point I had mascara flakes forming a colony under my eyes and all the hair on my head lost it’s battle with gravity, despite the best efforts from the many layers of hairspray I used). So, now that I don’t have to do that every day, I’m really trying to take better care of my skin and hair. That’s why I’ve adopted a new hair care routine that seems to be working really well!

FALL 2016 NAIL TRENDS
When the seasons change, so should your polish! Fall fashion isn’t limited to cozy sweaters and jazzy jackets – it includes your fingers too. To stay on trend, you’ll want to trade out your go-to mani/pedi color to something a little more in season.
MY BEAUTY BUYS
Welcome to MAJ (Makeup Junkies Anonymous).
My name is Lindsey, and I’m a makeup addict (Hiii Lindseyyy…).
Now that this meeting has started, let me start by saying, I come by it honestly.
Growing up I would drool over my mom’s enormous makeup drawer. Not literally because that’s gross. But I would play with all the different lipsticks, eye shadows and blushes. Truth be told… I still do!
Then when I got to college, living in a sorority house enabled me to try out a bunch of different products. I’ve found that more money doesn’t ALWAYS mean better quality. So here are my favorites!
1. Urban Decay Eye Shadow Pallet in “Naked 3” – I have blue eyes so I typically stick with browns, golds and taupes – making this pallet perfect for me! I discovered it through my friend while we were all getting ready for a wedding. All the colors are beautiful, and it’s high pigment meaning you don’t need to put a ton on so it lasts for a long time.
2. NARS blush/bronzer duo in “Orgasm” & “Laguna” – This is the BEST by far. Both colors look so natural together, like you just got off the beach. If you don’t want to float the dough – there’s also a cheaper version by e.l.f. The bronzer is very similar, but the blush is a little pinker, so I just use it sparingly.
3. O.P.I. nail polish in “Lincoln Park After Dark” – Been wearing this color for years. It looks a little more purple in the picture than it does on my nails. Two coats give you a deep purple color which I find gorgeous!
4. Lancome Liquid Eyeliner – I’ve tried a lot of different liquid eyeliners and this one is by far my favorite. The applicator tip is just fine enough so you don’t have to be an artist to make it look good. It also stays on all day long.
5.Maybeline’s “The Colossal” Volume Mascara – I’ve had expensive mascaras from the makeup counter and cheaper versions from the drug store but, I keep coming back to this. Every girl in my group of friends uses this. It makes your eyelashes super thick and lengthens at the same time. I don’t know why, but it seems like it adds some curl too. I never use an eyelash curler when I use this product.
6. Revlon Photo Ready Foundation – With my job, I go through foundation pretty quickly. So, I don’t like to spend an arm and a leg on it. This one has great coverage without breaking the bank. It also looks great in pictures.
7. “High Beam” highlighter by Benefit – You know how J.Lo always looks so dewy in all her photos? This is what High Beam does for you. (Although it won’t give you her bangin’ bod or gorgeous hair – bummer). I like to swipe a little on my cheeks and in the corners of my eyes.
8. MAC lipstick in “Velvet Teddy – If you’re looking for the perfect nude shade this is it. I’m actually out of it right now, but love it so much I use a lip brush to dig color out of the bottom of the tube. Fun tip: there’s a lot more product in the bottom! I haven’t needed to buy a new tube in a month and a half.
Thanks for stopping by!
