A More Subtle Brow

Hey guys! Sorry it has been forever, crazy things have been going on around here. A week or so ago I posted my everyday go to brow, but I know there are days when us girls just don't feel like getting ready. Some people have awesome clean brows, I unfortunately do not. So, here is my quick "clean face" brow. Hope you like it!

My Eyebrow Routine

Hey guys!
I get asked often about how I do my eyebrows when I fill them in. So, today I thought I would show you. In a few days post a really natural version for those of you who prefer it or just want to not really wear makeup that day! If you have any questions just ask! I'll try to get as detailed as possible!

My Top Elf Products

Elf (eyes.lips.face) may be the best makeup out there! Why? Because it is very inexpensive! So, do the products actually work? Well, here is a list of the ones that I have tried and loved!

Lets start at the base of the face. Foundation!

Pros: This foundation is very full coverage and looks really nice on the skin. Its only $6 who can beat that! I have normal skin and it is absolutely amazing. Surprising!

Cons: It only comes in a small variety of shades. I'm very light skinned and their lightest shade is a bit too dark on me. It is workable, but dark.

Next, what to apply it with! A foundation brush.

Caramel Macchiato

Hey guys! Sorry I have been lagging, things have been crazy this past week. Today I wanted to share my mock caramel macchiato. My all time favorite drink made easily at home.

You will need:

5-6 limes

1 yellow onion

a bunch of cilantro

Beauty Blender

I get asked often, what my favorite makeup brush is for my foundation.  So I figured I would clue you guys in on the best tool that was ever invented!  It is not a brush, but a sponge. A very different sponge. A seriously one of a kind sponge.  It is called the beauty blender! Here is what it looks like:

How to Peel Garlic - Easy and Fast

Super Yummy Protein Balls!

Last night I decided I needed something really sweet and yummy to eat, like a cookie, but I was way under calories for the day. I also wanted to be able to have something I could grab throughout the day or as a quick breakfast that would still work with my diet. So I looked up some ideas, went into the kitchen, and came up with these protein balls. Oh boy, are they yummy! So I thought I would share what I did for you to enjoy!
