Extend the length of your lashes!

Say goodbye to annoying mascara. NovaLash offers lash extension that extends each indivisual lash, is bonded safely and securely with adhesive that is of surgical quality, and gives your lashes a natural full appearance. The price range is about $300, and can last for up to 6 months. Check for a salon in your area, at this website--> lashextensions

If thats not within your budget, you can opt for the second best thing.
I highly recommend shu uemura individual flare lashes. They retail $16 for a box at shuuemura with the glue sold separately for $8.50

Another option for lash extension is a more natural option: lash repair formulas. I have been researching this and I know of a few popular brands, such as peter thomas roth or enormous lash. I have decided to test out shu uemura's version. Lash repair, retail price: $22.00. I will keep you posted on my results in the following month!

What colors make your eye color Pop?

A lot of make up artists refer to the color wheel for inspiration on a look. You may have seen it before in an art class. It looks like this----->




*refer to the opposite color of your eye on the color wheel chart, since opposites always attract.


Using the right eyeshodow color can really enhance the color of your eye dramatically. Try it out for yourself.


If your eyes are brown:

Use a deep sapphire blue shadow, or eyeliner. Blue will bring out the golden flecks in your brown eyes.


If your eyes are blue:

Use a rich chocolate brown, or a bronze to bring out the shimmer in your blue eyes.

If your eyes are green:

Use shades of purple, since purple tones will enhance the yellow flecks usually found in green eyes.

If your eyes are hazel:

Use shades of green-- anything from moss to lime green to forest green. Green shades bring out the red undertones usually found in hazel eyes, and makes them look brighter.
