Faded Colours: Ombré Lips

Get hip to the new trend this season: Ombré Lips! This look gives an edgy, yet classic feel to the everyday norm of wearing bold lipstick these days.


What are Ombré lips you ask? Well as you can see, it's basically a union of bold and bright colors blended together from the center or the rim of the lip. Yes you can use whatever color you want, but keep in mind, it's the contrast between hot and cold colors that will make the ombré.
You can pickup colorful selections from any drugstore for a decent price (i.e. RiteAid, Walgreens, etc). As for me, I've been stuck in the house these past couple of days due to weather and of course I got bored. But as you know, with boredom comes creativity so I tried it out myself. Take a look!


First, I used Covergirl Lip Perfection in 'Fairytale' to outline, then I used Kiss New York Brand in 'Nude Beige' directly on the  inner center of my lips.

Almond nails..

Everyone knows that I love getting my nails done. Lowkey I might be a little addicted lol. I struggle with going from gel polish to acrylic and vice versa. Well this time I've had gel polish for a little over a week, and I'm already annoyed. They aren't looking fresh and new like they still should. So... I have decided to go back to acrylic for a little bit. With that being said.. I'm going to try the almond shape nails again. I really liked them when I had them for my birthday a few months ago. 



Can you tell that I love my leather jacket??!! #peaceandlove

Lashes

Great lashes can have you going from blah to boom boom! I am obsessed with lashes. It seems like boys are blessed with long, gorgeous lashes and they don't even care! Lol. Well for those of us less fortunate ones we often turn to enhancements whether it be mascara, extensions, or vitamins. I personally love lash extensions. But remember the more natural looking the better. Here's a peek at my lash transformation. What's your fave lash product? #peaceandlove
