Nail Of The Day -- Butter London: Rosie Lee

Hey guys! So for Christmas my wonderful sister Rachel got me my first Butter London nail polish! So of course I painted my nails right away. 

This color is perfect for me! Espcially because it's glitter, and I love glitter polishes! 

It has redish purpley glitter with pink glitter - that is seriously the only way I could describe it. 

It has a clear base, so light pink or even black would look great underneath!

I took pictures in natural and artificial lighting so your could see it in both. But honestly, neither of these lighting choices do the color justice. both of these lighting's made it look light, where in real life it's about as dark as it looks in the bottle.
The first coat is a bit sheer, but once you get the second coat on the color looks a lot more opaque - which is the case for many glitter polishes with clear bases. 

Anyways, that's my nail of the day!

My Chirstmas Wishlist!

Christmas is coming! ...says all the Christmas concert I've been playing at lately :P So today I'm going to share my Christmas Wishlist with ya'll!

1. The Hunger Games Trilogy
As usual my friend Nicole got me into this series (like Vampire Diaries) and I'm obsessed! I originally borrowed the books from Nicole, but now I want to re-read it! And I have to have this collection on my bookshelf :) 
2. Benefit's Tints 
A.K.A. Benetint, PoiseTint and ChaChaTint.
I absolutely love these! I love the texture, and color. But my problem is that I don't own any of them. One that I do own in High Beam and I love that one too! 
3. Hot Chelle Rae Concert Tickets
okay guys, I cheated with this one, because I already got them! Let's just talk about Nicole for a minute. My lovely friend Nicole got me these tickets today and let's just say my reaction was priceless. Thanks Nicole! <3
4. Pink SugarPlum -- Bath and Body Works
B&BW has a new holiday scent called Pink Sugarplum and it's smells amazing!!! I know I have so many Triple moisture body creme's but I can't help it, their amazing! 
5. Sweaters! 
I recently feel in love with pull over sweaters. I don't really know why but I love them!! Good places to find them are American Eagle and Aeropostal. TNA makes nice ones too. Plus they're great for the cold winter ahead! 
That makes the big things I would like on this years wish list! Let me know what you asked for! 

Happy Holidays!!!

For the Band Geek in you... or someone else

Hello Bloggers, I haven't posted in over a month... CRAZY! But if it makes you feel better I havent posted very often on YouTube either. Which, speaking of YouTube recently changed; a lot of people are complaining, but I personally like it. Anyways the reason for my posting...

I recently watched Elle Fowler's newest video where she talked about etsy.com I have no idea if she was sponsored or not... but this site is amazing. Embracing the band geek in me, I immediatly clicked on the music category and found an amazing instrument themed seller.

Before I go on, something I don't talk about much is how much of a band geek I am. I play in 4 bands at my high school with my trumpet - aka the love of my life ;) - and it's honestly one of the only reasons I love high school so much. (I'll insert of picture of me and my baby below)

I would post me with my section but I'm not about to put their faces on the internet without their permission :) 

Anyways this instrument awesome-ness on etsy is called Horn & Castle Musician Gifts. And let me tell you, as a musician myself, any musician would love these gifts. They have custom buttons, notebooks, and luggage tags to fit any instrument! it's awesome!

I plan on doing a gift guide about just books on my YouTube channel soon, so stay tuned!

and Happy Holidays!

Spider Web Makeup -- Halloween

So last Halloween when I was playing with makeup I made a spider web on the side of my face. Which wasn't very good,since it was only done with a pencil liner. This is year I did it with a gel liner and added a few details like glitter a spider, and grey shadowing. I also filmed it and put it up on my YouTube channel if you would like to see the making of it. Below, are pictures of what I did last year, and this year. I've also put the tutorial below in case you would like to watch it.

Black Sawn-- Halloween

Hey guys! I recently uploaded a Black Swan Makeup Tutorial that was requested for Halloween. The original makeup in the movie, is very complicated and has a lot of detail, and a non-professional makeup artist can not perfect that. There's not a time (and patients I'm sure) to do that. So I came up with a simplified  version that is definitely not as complicated. 

Below, I've provided pictures, and the tutorial via YouTube. Enjoy!

Halloween Haul and Katherine Pierce

Hey bloggers! 

Today's post is about Halloween. For me, Halloween is a weird holiday because sometimes I get really into it, then sometime I don't.

Also, I wasn't really sure if anyone would want to see Halloween tutorials on my You Tube channel, so if you do let me know!

Yesterday, we went out to get things for a Halloween party my sister is going to, and it hit me; VAMPIRE! So this year, yours truly is going to be none other then Katherine Pierce from The Vampire Diaries.

If your wondering what I got:

A Vampire would not be complete without fangs: These were only $2.46 at Walmart; compared to the Scarecrow brand at $25.99

Ardell Lashes #110

Revlon Just Bitten lip stain in Twilight -- Perfect name for a vampire look!

~ Do you want to see Halloween tutorials on my youtube channel?

~ What will you be for Halloween?

AND Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian followers!

Face of the Day -- Sept. 17/11

Hey bloggers! Today I have a face of the day, which is mainly an eyes of the day... but whatever :P

For eyes I went with a subtle smokey eye. I just used a thinck line of brown eyeliner and blended/smudged it upward onto the lid. 

Then, I used MAC's White Frost eyeshadow in the inner coner. And Revlon's Vintage Lace eyeshadow under my brow bone. 

For Mascara; Cover Girl Lash Blast Fusion (Blackest Black)

For Face I used MAC Pro Long-wear Concealer and MAC Minerlize skinfinsh to top it off. For blush; a limited edition MAC minerlize blush in Miss Behave.

And finally, for lips, I used NARS Lip gloss in Turkish Delight.
