A Giveaway Is In The Works

"I'm so thankful to have you guys as friends"

I'm sooooo excited to announce that I'll be doing a giveaway soon on my Youtube channel for all of you guys! I really wanna show my appreciation and love for all of YOU who's supported and watches my videos. Recently I've reached 20K subscribers on my Youtube channel....THAT'S CRAZY! Ahhh! lol. I know to most 20K isn't a lot compared to other gurus out there. But considering I don't do half as much videos as they do and still have people subscribing to my channel and reaching 20K is a blessing. So Thank you.

More detail will be coming soon on my new video so keep an eye out.






Much Love,

Favorite Lashes of the Month!

For the past two months I've been wearing nonstop these AMAZING limited edition MAC lashes #35! They were once permanent at MAC stores only then got discounted. I was uber excited when they got relaunched during Marilyn Monroe collection (October 4, 2012)!

I'm big when it comes to lashes! I love how they can completely transform your look in minutes. If you were to ask me "what can't I leave the house without?" (makeup related). It's definitely hands-down mascara and lashes! What girl doesn't love these two products?! Lol

Lash Details: These #35 are quite natural looking believe it or not. I really like how they are spaced out which gives them that unique edgy look. The hairs are place longer at the middle point and shorter at both ends. Thanks to the brown and black hair on it too, it gives them that natural look. Most importantly the band is clear, super thin, and comfortable! Which is a big part when trying to make sure they marry well with your real ones.

I get so many compliments out of them. They are if not my second favorite pair of lashes!

Get Ready With Me!

Here's my everyday look video that I did on my YouTube channel from start to finish (link to video will be listed below). What's different about this and DEFINITELY out of my ordinary comfort zone is that I normally don't do videos like this one where I show my bare (no makeup) face. I think because a lot of times we become so self-conscious about "baring it all" that we're afraid what others will say. And most of the time that can be a scary thing to do too especially on YouTube where people can be mean and cruel. But one important thing I've learned while making videos throughout my 3 years is that...you have to present and be YOURSELF. I know I sure don't wake up every morning looking glam! I have acne/scars all over my face, dark circles, redness, puff eyes, and uneven skin tone. At the end of the day I have just or even more flaws as like anyone would and that's the point that I wanted to make when I decided upon making this transformation video.

So I hope you guys can appreciate and watch this video and say "no one is perfect".
