My Favorite Basic Tops, Tanks & Ts Video Details

I got lots of requests to go over my most-worn basics, and though not all of the exact styles are available anymore, the brands I love are still producing similar enough tops and tanks that I think most of you will find worthy! Sorry, I make sure to buy great basics to get a lot of mileage out of them, so most of my clothes are old. I hope the video is helpful nonetheless :)

My Skincare Routine - Day & Night + Affordable Options Video Details

Hello, everyone! I finally have a solid skincare regimen now, so I decided to share it since I always get lots of skincare requests. Please remember I am not a doctor, I am not trying to dictate what skin care products you should purchase.. these are just the products that work for my sensitive combination/normal skin! I usually have a couple dry patches on my cheeks but not at the moment, my nose tends to get shiny midday. I am sharing the information about these products with you because they work for me, in case you are interested in seeing what skin care products I invest my money in. Please see a dermatologist if you have serious skin concerns! Otherwise, I hope you find it helpful :)

Sultry, Sexy Clubbing Make-up with Winged Glitter Eye Liner [Kim Kardashian Inspired] Tutorial Video Details

I've received a lot of requests for a dramatic smoky nighttime/clubbing look in the Kim Kardashian vein, and I have delivered! I'm just hoping you guys like the finished look :) It's dark and quite heavy on the eyes, but well balanced, and the best thing about this look is that it's relatively easy! Just make sure to blend well. This is my take on a long-lasting special occasion smoky eye that works for any outfit or coloring. You can substitute any of the products used, go warmer or cooler, but the Chanel Mirifique is gorgeous used as liner or eyeshadow.. a very worthy investment to amp up your make-up wardrobe!

Giorgio Armani Gloss D'Armani in Pink 503 Review, Photos, Swatches, FOTD

I have been loving the Giorgio Armani Gloss D'Armani, $28, this past month. I had passed on purchasing these Armani glosses when they first launched early last year, but that was a terrible mistake. These glosses are incredibly moisturizing and leave my dry lips healthier and softer. I know it is hard to believe, but these tend to function more as a lip balm for me. The thick, shimmery gloss effect is an added "pretty" bonus!
