Maybelline - Electro Baby Lips Review

I just recently got the baby lips in the shade oh orange!




PROS
this is such a gorgeous orange colour
Although it is quite sheer with one application, if you build multiple coats, it can be quite vibrant
I feel like if you apply one application, it's fine.
CONS
BUT! If you apply 2 applications or more, it start to feel quite caked on. 
Also I have been using this product for a couple of weeks and
 have noticed I start to get lines and gunky stuff on my lips. 

SWATCHES


COLOUR
4/5

LONG-WEAR
3/5

CONS
1/5 

OVERALL RATING 
I would give this product a 2.5/5 or 3/5 because even though it can be quite vibrant, it makes your
lips feel quite gross and sticky. With one coat, it gives your lips a sheer hint which is fine. 


EXTRA THOUGHTS
Would I purchase this again?
Maybe, I may like to try some other colours. 


I hope you guys liked this post and comment if you want me to do a review on the new
Doctor Rescue Baby Lips :)

BUY & DIY: wall decals

1. DIY Wall Decals

Things you need:

- duck tape
- scissors (non-stick scissors are optional)
- a pen
- a template (I chose a butterfly)
- a couple sheets of paper
- tape

The first thing you want to do is take your template and cut it out. Once you have that you take two strips of duck tape and lay them on a non- stick surface, with slight overlap. Make sure your strips are a little bit longer than your template. Then you take your template, and lay it over the strips, take your pen and trace your template on the duck tape strips/sheet. You want to take your scissors and cut out the shape out of the duck tape you just drew. Then you lay your shape on the piece of paper and cut it out. You no can tape your decal on a spot on your wall! You can make as many as you want to.

The Final Product:






I chose butterflies :)

Heatless curls! DIY

Heatless Loose Waves! - Shirt Curls (ANDREA'S CHOICE)

First take an old tee and cut it into long strips (around 15 strips) but if you have thick hair then maybe do a little bit more

If you have long hair then you want to make long strips and if you have short hair you want to make short strips!

Next - Take one of the long strips and cut a little slit in it about 2-3 inches. Repeat that to the rest of the strips

Now the fun part - take one of the strips and pull it to about on inch from the end of your hair and roll it towards your face once and then pull it to the end of your hair.

Then continue rolling to the top of your head.

Tie off the ends for maximum security, then WAIT!!!!!! (3 - 4 hours)  Just chill, take some time to think about life. Write in your journal, take a bubble bath, I don't know just do whatever you like.

TIP! - If you want the curls to stay for the next day then go to sleep with them and they will stay for a long time :)

After 3 or 4 hours gently unravel the curls and they come out loose, wavy, and pretty.

PERFECT!

For more detail of this hairstyle follow this link to Andrea's version:

Let me know if you want more heatless hairstyles!

Valentines Day Makeup

Valentines Day Makeup



The Makeup is a casual neutral eye with a bold red lip and some Peachy pink blush. This look has drugstore and high-end products. The first product is a BB cream from Maybelline and the reason why I chose a BB cream instead of foundation is because it feels light but still gives you coverage. 
Maybelline BB Cream - Maybelline Age Rewind Concelar - Urban Decay Naked Palette - E.L.F Pressed Powder - MAC Lipstick - Sonia Kashuk Blush in (flamingo)
