Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Strips
I know what you’re thinking, Christina said these were terrible. But listen guy’s she tried to use them while driving! After giving them a second chance we realized we both LOVE these bad boys. Not only do they have tons of adorable patterns but they also last days without chipping! They are also extremely easy to apply, even if you’re driving!
Fashion:
If boy’s can look good in bow ties than girls can look even better. The fact that i just realized you could pair a bowtie with almost any dress you own and have a perfect outfit is blowing my mind. I’m planning outings just to spend more of my time rockin’ a bow tie.
Song:
I love this song by Ellie Goulding! Every time I hear it, it makes me want to run and dance around in a huge field!
Beauty Product:
I have been using this for a while, and I just realized how important it is in my makeup routine. I probably lean on it a little too much, but I can’t help it. It really makes any makeup look 10 times better. (I may not act like it) But I do know that sparkles aren’t usually appropriate for every occasion, but with this super skinny applicator you can make it look really modest and not to new years eve-y.
Hair:
This last month Anna has been putting a bunch of different blonde highlights in my hair with the intention to eventually lighten it all the way blonde. Now it is finally the color I want and I have started using a lot of products with toner in them. I started using Its a 10 leave in conditioner a long time ago and I have ALWAYS loved it. It makes my hair feel so soft and never weighs it down or make it oily like other leave in conditioners do. Anyways this one is the same as the other its a 10 that I used in the past, but it has toner in it. After just one week of using it I could really tell a difference in my color. It looks a lot healthier and brighter. The moral of the story is: if you haven’t tried this wonderful product (that literally does everything) then go out there and get it!!!
Nails:
I am straight up OBSESSED with this color! Its called “Mod About You”. I can NEVER decide to go with white or pink for my pedicure. So finally OPI has answered my many prayers with this pastel white-ish pink . So now I am totally MOD about this color
Is your mascara getting way to clumpy way to soon? Well, fear no more! We have a solution to your problems! Saline Solution!
If you find that your mascara is getting thick and hard to apply and you don’t feel like spending your pennies on a whole new product then all you have to do is put a few drops of saline solution into your mascara and mix it around with your wand. This will break up the mascara and give it a smoother substance. However, you must be careful when putting it in. Try mixing it with every new drop you put in or else you will end up with liquid eyeliner and a really weird applicator to go with it.

Tip #2: BLEND BLEND BLEND BLEND BLEND! Make sure that when you are using more than one color you always spend enough time blending. eye shadow lines can be really distracting and take the focus away from the shape of your eyes. Make sure to invest in a good blending brush, and that doesn’t mean it has to be expensive! One of our favorite blending brushes we got was from Walgreen’s!
Tip #3: Mascara Tricks! When applying your favorite mascara, stroke the brush towards your nose. This will give your lashes a fuller look and also make your eyes appear wider!
