1. Sweep a matte vanilla shadow on your brow bone.
2. Using a windshield wiper motion, apply a soft pink shadow in your crease.
3. Pat a shimmery cranberry shadow all over your eyelid.
4. Blend a soft brown into your crease so everything is seamless!
5. Pat a shimmery light pink shadow on the inner third of your lid.
6. Add a pop of shimmery vanilla in your inner socket.
7. Line your lower lashline with the same frosty cranberry as before.
8. Use black pencil to line your waterline.
9. Line your upper lashline too, I opted for a slightly bolder liquid liner.
10. Curl your lashes and finish with mascara (bonus points if you add false lashes!).
11. Voilá!

1. Paint your nails with one shade. Let them dry completely! The trick to mastering this technique is to be patient. They need to be totally dry.
2. Apply the tape to your nails in any angle you prefer. The tape will cover the area of the nail you don’t wish to paint. Make sure to press down completely so you get a super sharp line!
3. Apply a thick coat of your contrasting polish!
4. Remove the tape in one swift motion while your nails are still wet!
5. Wait a few minutes and once it’s mostly dry, seal with a clear coat.
6. Voila!

Makeup brush cleanser can be expensive. Here’s a recipe to make your own at home with ingredients you probably already have!

1. You’ll need: shampoo, dish washing soap, rubbing alcohol, a spoon and something to mix it all in, and a bottle or spray bottle to put it in.
2. Add 1/4 cup of shampoo to your container/mixing jar.
3. Add 1/4 cup of dish soap.
4. Pour in 1/2 cup of rubbing alcohol.
5. Stir it thoroughly!
6. Pour the finished product into your bottle or spray bottle.
7. To use your new mixture, just spray it onto your brush.
8. Lather it up in your hand with some water.
9. Then rinse and squeeze out the excess water.
10. Lay flat to dry, an edge is best. Don’t use a towel underneath and never dry them standing up… you don’t want bacteria and mold to collect on your brushes while they dry! 
    

Voila!

1. You’ll need a nail polish for all over, a glitter polish, and a top coat! Start with clean bare nails.
2. Paint your nails with a couple if coats of your polish, wait a couple minutes in between coats so it turns out nice!
3. Paint your glitter at the top of your nails near your cuticle. Sort of like you would for a French tip mani but reverse! Don’t over think this step, it doesn’t have to be perfect!
4. Wait a minute, then take your glitter again and drag it from the top of the nail to slightly past where your first glitter coat ends. Lift the brush up as you reach the edge of your glitter. We are making streaks of glitter that trail off!
5. Finish with a clear top coat.
6. Clean up any loose glitter polish with a Q-tip and nail polish remover.
7. Voila!
