Quick 2″ Curls For The Fine Haired Girl

July 5, 2012

2 inch curls are the perfect “beach inspired” wave. To get this look, I recommend using a curling rod because, in my opinion, it is easiest to maneuver.

The Green Smoky Eye For The Brown Eyed Girl

July 2, 2012

Along with purple, green is said to be the most complimentary shade for us brown eyed girls. Because of this, I have created a green smoky eye that is perfect for summer because it has a touch of gold under the waterline. These shades work perfectly with one another to create a summery look that is so beautiful with brown eyes.

  1. Start off with a green base all over your lid. I used a green liner for this step and lightly blended it across my lid. This will make the greens truly pop.
  2. Lightly sweep a olive green color across your lid and blend it lightly towards your crease.
  3. Add a light and shimmery green color to the inner portion of your lid and sweep it into your inner corner. This will highlight your adds and add a summery touch, while still keeping the look smoky. (more…)

  1. Start off by taking your brow comb and brushing your brows to tame their appearance. This makes it much easier to evaluate which parts of your natural brow need altering.
  2. Dip your angled brush into an eyeshadow 2-3 shades lighter/darker than your natural hair color. If your hair is naturally light, aim for a shadow 2-3 darker than your brows to truly give them definition. Conversely, if your hair is naturally dark, aim for a shadow 2-3 shades lighter than your natural brows to fill them in without them being too bold or overpowering.  (more…)
