“Beauty is the purest feeling of the soul. Beauty arises when soul is satisfied.”
― Amit Ray, Nonviolence: The Transforming Power


Hello my beautiful Nubians, 

Some days you want to walk out looking fresh faced with some barely there makeup. I think barely there, natural looking makeup is such a great trend because you get to even out your skin tone and add some minimal makeup to achieve a nice glow on your skin. Most times I stick to either all warm tones, or all rosy tones. Which ever direction I choose, I always love to look radiant! 

Below I put this beautiful, natural minimal makeup look together using products from Smashbox, BH Cosmetics, Elf & more!

Cheers!

Hey Nubians,

Kiss and Pout! 

I absolutely Love lipstick. I can go on without barely any makeup on my face, but I must have some sort of tinted lips. Every season I try to rotate my lipsticks according to the seasons. Lately I've been all about matte lips too! For Fall/Winter I enjoy using darker, deeper shades. Below please enjoy my 4 favorite lipsticks so far this month for Fall/Winter.

The lipstick brands are Avon, L.A. Girl Cosmetics, Wet N' Wild Beauty and Covergirl.

**Tips**

-Always moisturize before wearing lip color to avoid chapped lips and peeling skin.
-For darker colors use a lip brush to stay in the lines better.

Watch the video below to see swatches of the colors and the exact names. Subscribe to my YouTube HERE.


Avon- Berry Cute

L.A. Girl Cosmetics- Blue Valentine

Wet N' Wild Beauty - 24 Carrot Gold 

Covergirl - #50 Storm Trooper 


Which of these lip colors is your favorite?

Hello Nubians,

It's the start of another glorious week! 

I wanted to share my everyday makeup routine I've been applying lately. Basically, now that my hair is so bright and bold I've slightly tweaked my makeup a little bit. I didn't think it made sense to have purple hair and crazy overdone makeup too. It's all about balance kiddies.



My Everyday Makeup Routine.

* I start off by Moisturizing with Olay Complete All Day Moisturizer with Broad Spectrum SPF 15. I also add a dime size of coconut oil and mix it together for extra moisture.
*Next I proceed by applying my ELF concealer slightly under my eyes to create a shadow to minimize my dark circles.
*After that I use my Wet N Wild eyebrow kit, which after trying so many expensive options is my absolute favorite.
*Lately I've been using LOreal Paris Miss Manga Mascara. 
*I apply a little bit of Victoria's Secret St. Barths bronzer by my cheekbones.
*After that I select which lip color I want to use that day.
*Lastly I pick either a nuetral or bold eyeshadow and apply a little bit under my eye.

Then TAH-DAH! Cute and fairly minimal.


This is also a great option for Summer because you don't have to cake so much makeup on your face when it's so hot!

Cheers!

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 Nubians,

I wanted to quickly share my simple math equation for my main makeup look I will be using all Spring/Summer 2015.

Quería compartir mi ecuación matemática simple para mi look de maquillaje principal que voy a utilizar en primavera/verano de 2015.

Bold Brows + Bold Lips + A Little Eye Liner + A Little Bronzer = My Perfect Look.  

Cejas Oscuras + Labios De Color Brillante + Lineador Del Ojo + Un Poco De Bronze = El Look Perfecto. 


The reason I love this makeup look is because I feel that these tools highlight the best features of our face. Also with so much heat I don't think it's in anyones best interest to over do their makeup because it will probably melt off your face anyway.

La razón que me encanta este look de maquillaje es porque siento que resaltar las mejores características de nuestro rostro. También con tanto calor no creo nadie debe de usar tanto maquillaje porque probablemente derretirá la cara de todos modos.


For your eyebrows I want to recommend Wet N' Wild Cosmetics eyebrow kit. I've been using it for years and it's my favorites. I've tried way more expensive options but always go back to this.

Para tus cejas quiero recomendar Wet N' Wild cosméticos kit de cejas. Lo he estado usando durante años y es de mis favoritos. He intentado opciones más costosas pero siempre vuelvo a esto.


You can find it at Walgreens HERE.

Pueden conseguir el kit de cejas AQUI.


Is there any makeup and beauty trends you're wild about this season?

Que looks de maquillaje te gustan a ti esta temporada?
