The new lipstick I'm in love with.

I know my last post had to do with another makeup (Cargo Essential Eyeshadow Palette) but I’m really in love with this one too! It’s called Botanical Lipstick by Cargo.
It’s all natural and $2 out of each sale will go to St.Jude Children’s Research Hospital. But that’s not the only thing awesome about it. It gives great shine and sparkle and great moister. My lips are like the desert, but this lipstick made my lips like the rain forest (I know bad analogy but still… the lipstick is very moisturizing!) The shade I got was ‘Sarah’ (or ’shimmering pink pearl’) and I think it is universaly hot on everyone, so if you wanted to to try a color, I suggest that one. There are 17 shades to choose from though, so if you don’t like that one don’t worry. The final price is $2o. But, if your willing to find a Sephora masterclass called, ‘7 in 7′ you can get it for free. I was casualy browsing Sephora when I stumbled across the class and got a sampler bag with the lipstick in it. But even if your not as lucky as me and need to pay full price, I think it is an investment you won’t regret.

DIY- rice water toner.

Rice water as a toner, sounds crazy right? But a couple weeks ago I saw this video on youtube, and have been hooked ever since. It makes my skin smoother, softer, reduces redness, evens out my skin tone, and even helps get rid of pimples and black heads. Want to make your own magical rice water? Read more below.

How to make it

1.Take a small handful of natural or organic rice, and put it in a small bowl.
Next add hot water, so they’re is around half an inch of water above the rice.

2. Stir the water and rice with a straw until the water is cloudy

How to use it as a toner.

1.After the water is cloudy you can pour it out in to a small container, or leave it in the bowl.

2.Take the water and put a little on a cotton ball or any other applier of choice, and then apply like any other toner.

How to use it as a face mask.

1.Take a paper napkin and cut it till it’s the size or your face. Add eye, mouth, and nose holes.

2.Fold it up and soak it in the rice water.

3.Take it out of the water and squeeze out any extra liquid.

4.Place on face and go lie down some where for 10-15 mins.

I dare you to try it, and soon you’ll love it to!

The boho bun.

Now I know that there are a lot of cool up-dos out there but I think I have found the easiest and chicest look out there, and I'm here to share it with you. This hair style is perfect for working out at the gym (hey, you deserve to be cute all the the time!) or a fancy dinner, basically, this hair style is perfect for anything!

I call it, The Boho Bun.

Before I start a would like to say that this look is only if you can pull your hair back into a bun. Sorry short hair people, but don't worry a post about short hair is coming soon.

Step one, take two pieces from either side of the front of your head. (in between your ears and your forehead.) Braid those two pieces into two braids and leave them, they will come in handy later.

Step two, gather your hair into a tight, high bun. Make sure the front is smoothed back by brushing it with long strokes as you make the bun.

Step three, take the two braids you made earlier and bring them over the top of your head. Wrap the two braids around the base of your bun and pin.

Ta da, you have a totally chic and easy hair-do!

3 recession worthy rules.

Attention all shopaholics! I have some rules that will help you survive this recession! (without dieing in the process). I know that everyone has said that they were going to cut back, but actually cutting back, that was the hard part. My body works in a certain way (don't worry it's nothing weird!) I need to go shopping at least once a month just to keep on going. But shopping isn't the problem, it's the ooooh-it's-so-cute-I-have-to-buy-it 50 dollar over budget shirt that gets me in the end. So how do I keep shopping without going broke? Find out below!

1.When you enter a store go up to the counter and ask were the clearance items are, don't look at anything until you're in the clearance section, this will save you those pricey must-haves that we all hate so much.

2.Make sure you really love what your going to buy. Don't make an impulse buy, in order to avoid these check to make sure it fits where it should, so you don't go home and realize it's unflattering.

3.Don't bring your credit card and leave Mr. Franklin at home, that way it will be hard to extend to the 40 dollar range.

Follow those rules and you will end up with better bargains, better things, and most importantly more money!

The BEST nail polish color for toes.

Before I begin my post I would like to say this idea was given to me via one of my comments, so comment! Tell me what you would like to know! Ask questions, make suggestions, anything goes (as long as it's not mean of course)!

Sick and tired of plain, nail-polish-less toes? Don't want to pick the wrong color (even though removing it is easy)? Who isn't? But which color's the best? Hmmm...

Guess what? There are 2 'best colors'!

1. The first 'best color' is something you might not expect, baby blue. But not shimmery, mermaid-y blue, matte almost-frosty blue. It's a great base for designs, and looks great on short as well as long nails. Plus it works year-round, so you don't have to switch out nail polishes if you're feeling lazy

2. The second 'best' nail color is also light. It's light, slightly beige, matte pink. Matte colors are very in this fall, and this pink is no different. It also works great for fingers. (So does the blue.)

So get ready for fabulous toes, because now you know which colors are the best.

Make your own lipstain!

Lip stain is great for summer because on like other products ( *cough* Lipstick *cough) it actually stays on. So if you’re swimming, you can still have great looking lips. But lip stains only great if it doesn’t break the bank, so how do you get long lasting, great looking, cheap lip stain? You make it! Here’s a recipe for all natural, all fabulous, lip stain.

.3 or 4 raspberries.
.1 spoonful of olive oil.

Not very long is it? And it’s easy to mix! Just mash up the raspberries and add olive oil for a great lip stain.

Added bonus! Because the lip stains made from raspberries, it not only looks great,but smells and taste great too!

Cherry lipstain, this falls best lip color.

Want to know what to wear on your lips this fall? u can push y0ur gloss and lipstick to the bottom of your makeup drawer, becaues lipstain is the lip product of choice. But not just any color lip stain, try cherry.
Yes I’m talking about lipstain, but if you want to rock lipstain you need to learn the secrets of the trade. First of all, lipstain never goes on even, it leaves blotchy dark spots, and weird light spots. To avoid this rub your lipstain in after you apply it, and remember to check in the mirror before you go out to save from stained skin too. Secondly make sure you pick a good lipstain to avoid rub off. Try out last lipstain. I wore it at a the beach this summar and it lasted through dinner and swimming. Wow is right. But the perfect color for this fall is cherry. Make it darker in the middle of lips and gently lighten it out form there.
So wear it right this summar with cheery lipstain.
So wear it right this fall, will lipstain.
