DIY Body Glow Sunscreen

  Oh.My.God. I'm so excited to show you guys this! I'm so proud to say I figured this out myself but I'm sure I'm not the first one to think of this brilliant idea. It's a sunscreen, AND it's also gives your body a nice glow, an inexpensive DIY. You could wear this on a daily basis, but come on, everyone wears sunscreen. It's so easy and simple, I could close my eyes making this. Okay I can't, but you get the point. TO THE LAB:

  Ingredients:

    - Sunscreen/Lotion

    - Bronzing powder (optional)

    - Gold shimmery eyeshadow

    - a container

  Instructions:

    - I personally like sunscreen, since it protects my skin from the sun. So I'm just going to put that in a different container. 

    - Add the bronzing powder(optional) and the gold shimmery eyeshadow by scraping it in, until you like your results. 

    - Mix it well, until all the pigments are gone. 

    - Move it to the container that you want.

    - Enjoy!

DIY Eyelash Curler

  Eyelash curlers tend to be expensive, at least 18 dollars. I bought one, and it was such a waste! I found this method thanks to my sexy idol, Miranda Kerr. She said that she uses a secret weapon to curl her lashes when she's forgot her eyelash curler. It was such a smart idea because the eyelash curler damaged my lashes by pulling it, so this is a really awesome alternative. You'll be amazed!

  Secret Weapon:

    - a spoon

  Instructions:

    - Hold the spoon (obviously.)

    - Place the spoon on top of your lashes.

    - Place your thumb under your lashes. 

    - Press down the spoon to your thumb to be able to curl it.

    - Continue doing that until you are pleased with your results!

          PS: Heat up your lashes first with a blow dryer to have a dramatic finish!

DIY Lip Stain

I love love love lip stains. LOVE. It's like lipstick but it's in a liquid form and it stays on longer. Usually, the lip stains are in pretty dark colors, so I'm going to show you guys how to make your own lip stain!


  Ingredients: 
    - Vaseline
    - Food coloring ( lipstick or eyeshadow will do)
    - Any kind of extract
    - Shimmery pigments
    - Olive oil (optional)
    - A container

  Instructions: 
    - Put Vaseline in a separate container.
    - Apply food coloring/lipstick/eyeshadow. I prefer food coloring because the color is more... (what's the right word?) defined?
    -  Put in a few drops of extract ( I used coconut extract) for a good-smelling lip stain.
    - If you want to moisturize your lips even MORE, then you could put in a few drops of olive oil.
    - If you want a little shimmer, then you could add a little bit of gold/sparkly pigment.
    - Move it into the container you want it to be in.
    - VOILÀ!

  P.S.: Did you notice that this DIY is similar to my first one, the "DIY Cream Blush" one?

XOXO,

DIY Cream Blush

Have you ever heard about cream blush? It's just like a normal brush, except creamier..I have tons of blush in tons of different shades, but none of them are cream blushes. Also, thousands of my friends and YouTube gurus recommended it, so I thought I would make my own! 

  Ingredients:

    - different shades of blush/lipstick/eyeshadow

    - Vaseline or any kind of liquid you can apply on your face (lotion, sunscreen, etc.)

    - gold/shimmery eyeshadow or pigment ( optional)

    - foundation/ tinted moisturizer 

    - a container

  Instructions: 

    - Put Vaseline on a different container to mix.

    - Use a spoon to scrape off eyeshadow or blush to put in the container. If the case is lipstick, jut use something sharp to cut off the lipstick bullet, then "destroy" it with a spoon. 

    - Mix different shades to find the perfect color. 

    - If you want a tad of shimmer, add gold pigment or gold eyeshadow to it. (optional)

    - Mix it with as many foundation as you want, to calm the pigment down and make it easier to blend in your cheeks (remember to add a bit at a time). 

    - Move it to the container you're going to use it with. 

    - Put it in the fridge for 15-25 mins to settle it. 

    - Enjoy your cream blush!

XOXO,
