Summer Cosmetic Essentials

Here is a list in my opinion of the top Summer Cosmetic Essentials to be a total betty at the mall, beach or even around the house. Knowing my extreme obsession with 90's aesthetic and culture, this comes into play with my major pics. I cant help myself, is it so wrong i wish everyone was still wearing long floral dresses, plastic skirts, or overalls? *Sighs*

Nails:
 I adore Essie its one of my favorite brands when it comes to nail color it drys so easily when im not into running to the nail salon, here are my summer colors mix and match for hot afternoons and warm nights!

Bond With Whomever                         Navigate Her


Berry Naughty                                  Private Weekend

Lacy Not Racy                                        Haute As Hello

Lady Like                                             Tiny -Winey



Make Up Essentials:
Alrighty so I am a brown brown girl so granted if you do not match my shade you should obviously make sure you ask what shade will fit you when it comes to face make up. 

My favorite thing to put on my face for the summer is the Mac Lightful C Moisturizer,  my tone is "Dark Deep". Its basically a tinted moisturizer I use to clear any discolorations in my face, as a SPF and also as a face powder and concealer. Its easier than doing a full face of makeup and it still makes you shine. 

This goes great with a nice Mineralizer SkinFinish, 



I prefer using the "Cheeky Bronze" just cause if your'e not feeling a blush one day it basically is a blush and shimmer all in one. Its a great low key look for trying to look good on the beach without claiming the fact that you have make up on. (We All Do It) and if you don't congrats on your beautiful unblemished face, we all are openly jealous.


In Case you want to add a light blush I highly recommend "Ambering Rose", The photo below isn't the picture of what "Ambering Rose" looks like but its apart of the Powder blush Collection.
At the Moment I am not a huge Eyebrow drawer, I promise to take lessons and get back to you but when it comes to lips I cannot get enough of Mac Lipstick, it literally is the softest and most versatile type you will find in stores. For the Summer these are my favorites include....


Amorous
For this I actually don't recommend a lip liner only because my eyeshadow was stealing the show.

Ruby Woo
For Lip Liner i suggest the Cremestick liner called "Red Enriched"

Capricious 
For Lip Liner I recommend the Cremestick liner called "Buerre"

There is one more color I extremely recommend for the summer if you are daring and love the shades of Brown, its called Noir and if you are able to find it in stores grab it, Im planning on grabbing it soon.




****Fun Fact****
 one of these photos was taken at a Mac Free Makeover Celebration for Spring Here's My photo of the finished product, It goes to show, you should always experiment even with greens....





MOOOOVING ONNNN

So okay lets just dive into the harder part, when not stealing the show with amazing lipsticks, another way to have a main highlight on your face is you're eyeshadow. Once again i'm completely biased but Mac is still my number one for most makeup essentials. My favorite item they offer is this palette below it allows you to pick 9 shades in one palette's, for me I like more naturals and browns and a black or two. In case you're unsure what you want a nice starter palette would be....

This Palette is called "Eye Shadow X9: Amber Times Nine" I think its an amazing starter palette full of naturals and a few sparkles in case you're looking to spice up the night. I especially recommend using the caramels for dark brown eyes.

If you are feeling more adventurous I would recommend this palette "Eye Shadow X15 Warm Neutral", twice the colors and more the fun ;) Sorry cheesy.....

For Mascara and Eyeliner life is simple, Always go for Urban Decay. Mascara wise always use Big Fatty, and i'm a huge liquid eyeliner fan so I suggest for mutual fans to use "24/7 Water Proof Liquid Eyeliner In Perversion".



So All In All These are my main favorites when it comes to Cosmetic Summer Essentials, Why did I make a post about this? Cause blossoming time is upon us, summer is the perfect time to test out what looks work and to come back in the fall PROCLAIMING..


Thank you lovely Drew Barrymore For Allowing us to understand the true meaning behind a TBT

Summer's Inspiration

so for me the summer is the perfect time to stretch your stylistic preference. Are you into a laid back style. Do you prefer shorts, skirts, or dresses? Is it really worth your money to invest in those sandal heels you know you will only wear once, post on Instagram then hide it in the closet? (Conclusion: It wasn't). Or are you going to go with the nice and reliable floral pattern?



Summer fashion is the perfect time to experiment with your style. The 90's truly inspires me here are some of my looks that were inspired by fashionista's in the 90's and movies/tv shows that showed their fashion choices, as if that wasn't enough i'm also going to show off some fashion choices for the summer that coincide with the two looks.





The first look is from the movie "Clueless" Its my favorite scene where the girls are at gym and talking to their "arch nemesis" in the show. Not only was the actual commentary in the film absolute gold.

I was in love with how many outfits were made through the simply colors or white and black and how each look wasn't done in a tacky manner. On the Right I got my tube top from Urban Outfitters, the thigh-highs from H&M and the Skirt from Forever 21. I wore White vans, but would of preferred a sandal type shoe like below to tie the outfit together.


A line that I absolutely adore is Ruffian 2015 Spring/Summer line these two pieces below are absolutely breathtaking they take in the chic look of Wednesday Adam's meets the clueless 90's scene to recreate this look.



The Second Look airs with an unforgettable character on T.V. and Voice.....


The Nanny Holds the Award for some of the best fashion choices of the 90's Fran was an inspiration showing off her mid-drift and legs and still holding together fashionable pieces. I recreated her white on white from American Apparel, but paired it with a jean jacket from the thrift store and Doc Martins. 
Just to take a peak.....
Fran was a great inspiration to the gem's you can find int he Thrift Store.


Mochino's Spring/Summer 15 look on the runway reminded us of some very "Fran" Meets Barbie Pieces.
