A Pop Of Color Can Make Your Day!

My Spring, Summer makeup is usually pretty simple. Bold lip, mascara and done! This year, I think I'm going to get groovy with a lot of bold eyeshadow colors. Realistically, I haven't played with eyeshadows in years... probably because I overdid it when I was 16-18 years old. I also love to experiment with brands and how good their quality and pigmentation is.

Hello Nubians, 

I was looking at an editorial from Vogue Japan featuring Mae Lapres and Madison Stubbington photographed by Alexandra Sophie. 2 photos that stood out to me specifically because I thought to myself *beauty alert* were the photos with colored eye lashes! I love my makeup and I know so many of you ladies do too. We've seen this trend before but I have a feeling it's on it's way for a major comeback 2016. 

Lookie Here



I think this is a beautiful look for eye makeup especially when you have barely any makeup on or very natural looking makeup. It makes your eyes POP! 

What do you guys think? Are you into colored eyelashes? A lot of brands like Butter LONDON, NYX Cosmetics, L.A. Colors and more sell pretty colored mascara. 

Will you be trying this on your pretty lashes this year? 



Cheers!

Hey Nubians,

Nothing like giving yourself a nice little Manicure to brighten up your mood. Though I find it tedious to do my nails, I also find it imperative that my nails look lovely at all times. I didn't always care... but the older I get, the more the little details matter.


Nails wants are so much fun! Even if it's just to add a small amount of glitter over a color, it gives it a little something extra. I like using LA COLORS wands because if you get lucky, you can find them for a dollar. Let's talk about this Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear '325 Big Teal', isn't it pretty? I love a nice bold nail color, it has great coverage even on the first coat... two coats makes it perfect. To top the whole manicure off, I like using Sally Hansen's Gel Shine 3D Top Coat. Then BOOM! Cute little mani complete. I also think Teal's a favorable color to use this time of year. The Xtreme Wear collection has great colors in it, you should check it out at your local drug store... your nails will thank you later ;-)

Ladies, having manicured nails is so important! Sometimes I feel as if we can easily overlook something as small as our nails if we're not careful. If you really think about it however... everyone can see your hands at all times! So it's important to keep them pretty and make a good impression. Plus, you don't always have to do it for others, do it for yourself!

Here's another few photo I uploaded on my dripthat account. If you remember in my John Frieda and NYC New York Color Beauty Haul post I talked about how I've been enjoying using the new app and it's fun features. I wanted to share some of my favorite brands and colors of nail polishes I'll be rocking this summer. I often do my nails myself (DIY chick) to avoid going to salons every week.

Wet n Wild Wild Shine - Wet n Wild beauty is one of my favorite drugstore brands. I've become a fan of their Wild Shine nail polish line as of lately. So far my favorite colors are Putting on Airs (Blue), Tickled Pink (Baby Pink), Blazed (Orange)


Ruby Kisses Nail Polish - Another cool brand I sort of discovered by accident is Ruby Kisses. I walked into a local pharmacy one day and discovered all of these crazy bright, bold colors for 99 cents! They also go on very nicely. My favorite nail polishes from Ruby Kisses are Tropical Green (lime green), Orange U Over? (bright orange), Teal Envy (goes on like sky blue).


Sally Hansen - I've been using Sally Hansen nail polishes for as long as I can remember. I constantly like to stock up on a lot of their different lines. For this Summer some of my favorites are Regan (blue from the Velvet collection), Peach (light peach from the Triple Shine collection), All Bright (pink from the Xteme wear collection) Cherry Fast (A magenta looking color from the Insta-Dri collection) Velour (A purple from the Velvet collection). Sally Hansen polishes has proven to be very reliable for me over the years. 


L.A. Colors Art Deco Wands - Lastly I always have to have a few Art Deco wands handy. Below you'll see the basic colors white, silver glitter, and black. I like to use these for zebra lines, dots, little flowers, and any other random design I like to think of. 


Those are my favorites for now. My theme is bright, bold, and fun! All of these polishes are so much fantastic and I can tell you from first hand experience that the brands are great and absolutely reliable. 

I can't wait to share some of the fun nail art I make with these polishes with you, cheers!

Hello My Nubian Queens! 

Just wanted to share a few things I picked up this weekend. I was thinking about summer eyes. I figured for night life, hanging out, and even making new YouTube tutorials, I want to keep things fun, bright, and bold! The colors in this new eyeshadow palette I picked up are gorgeous 

I purchased some lashes from a local beauty supply store here in Vegas. Then I made my way over to Target and found this super sexy L.A. Colors eyeshadow palette for about $4.00! Such a steal for these amazing colors. 

I'm looking forward to using all of these for some fun beauty looks and how-to's. Any make-up trends you're into this Summer?

Quería compartir algunas cosas que compre este fin de semana. Estaba pensando en los ojos de verano. Pensé que por vida nocturna, saliendo con amistades, y haciendo nuevos tutoriales de YouTube, quiero mantener las cosas divertidas, brillante y audaz! Los colores de esta nueva paleta de sombra de ojos que recogí son magníficos.

He comprado algunos Pestañas en una tienda de belleza local aquí en Las Vegas. Luego fui a la tienda Target y encontre L.A. colors paleta de sombra de ojos para aproximadamente $4,00! 

Estoy deseando utilizar todo estos productos de belleza en formas muy divertidas. ¿Que tendencias de maquillaje te gusta este verano?

Hey Nubians,


It's Mani Monday!


Last night after a bit of Spring Cleaning I decided to give myself a manicure and pedicure. My nails were fairly long but of course one of them just had to break so I cut them all... Don't you just hate that!? Anyway, I cut my nails really short and kind of improvised a few lines to make a fun little design. I decided to DIY my manicure instead of going to the salon. I actually do this pretty often to try to improve my skills. It also doesn't hurt to save a few bucks along the way/ 

For my base color I used Sally Hansen Velvet 640 Velour. It's a nice matte purple color. I proceeded but using LA. Colors Art Deco wands in white and silver glitter to make some lines off the top of my head and make the manicure more fun. I sealed the manicure with Sally Hansen's Gel Shine 3D Top Coat. 

Ayer por la noche después de un poco de limpieza de primavera decidí darme un manicure y pedicure. Mis uñas eran bastante largas, pero por supuesto uno de ellas tenía que romperse y tuve que cortarlas todas... ¿No lo odias? De todos modos, corte mis uñas muy cortas y de improvisaron unas líneas para hacer un divertido diseño de pequeño.

Para mi color base usé Sally Hansen Velvet 640 velour. Es un bonito color morado mate. Procedí usando LA. Colores Art Decó varitas en brillo blanco y plata para hacer algunas líneas de la parte superior de la cabeza y hacer el manicure más divertido. Sellé la manicura con Gel brillo 3D Top Coat de Sally Hansen.



Hope you enjoyed the manicure! I'm going to try my best to do some weekly mani fun once a week or every other week. 

Espero que hayan disfrutado la manicura! Voy a intentar mi mejor esfuerzo para hacer diversión mani semanal o cada dos semanas.
