Makeup of the Day

I thought I would show y'all some of my favorite products right now! Also I'm gonna show you soon my new favorite Amazing curling rod from Paul Mitchell that is really neat. I could go on all day how much I love NYX products. It's such an affordable makeup line that matches any professional makeup brand out there. So here's what I used today for a soft smokey eye, neutral lip, and glowy skin. Have a great day!

                 NYX cream blush in Boho Chic

             NYX Illuminator in Narcissistic above cheekbones


                NYX eyeshadow trio in Barely There, Silk, Root Beer



                  NYX eyebrow pencil in Brown


                     Elf liquid liner in black




               Elf matte lip color in Natural



              Loreal Magic Lumi highlighter for under eyes

           This is the best bronzer ever, I used Light to contour.

Goodwill Clock Makeover

Happy Monday!
I secretly hoped this Goodwill clock worked since it was really big and only a couple bucks, but after realizing it wasn't working ( which wasn't shocking ) I still wanted to salvage it in some way. I'll be honest it sat in the guest room for a couple months, haha. I dragged it out today and came up with the idea of using the frame and wrapping burlap on the inner clock panel. It was so easy! I removed the back and the hands on the clock and used my light duty stapler to attach the burlap and a drill to remove the panel and secure it! Think outside the box to use broken pieces in new ways!
                         



         Scared little Bruce from the loud stapler.....







Happy crafting!

Spotlight on Celebrity Colorist George Papanikolas

I have several favorite color specialist that inspire me. For instance the queen of color, Beth Minardi.
I also love Tracey Cunningham who is a celebrity colorist and brand ambassador for Redken. So, right now I am loving the work of George Papanikolas. He works with the Kardashian's, Mila Kunis, Miranda Kerr, Daisy Fuentes, and many others celebrities. He is the Balayage master! His work is beautiful and seamless in blending. His work ranges from really natural ombre to more striking fashion forward looks. He also is a Joico spokesperson, which is one of my favorite professional brands! Here is some of his beautiful work.
