How to get Smooth & Silky Skin

There a couple products that I have been using ritually for the past several months in order to keep my skin looking glowy and silky smooth. ;)

Of course, since it is summer, I have swapped my lotion from the winter for something else!

After I take a shower and have exfoliated my entire body, I put this on:


I LOVE this! It if perfect for after tanning and relaxing at the beach. I use this every night before bed and right after I take a shower. I lather this all over my entire body. It's very cooling and refreshing and my skin loves it. It's a great moisturizer for your whole body!

After letting this absorb into my skin, I use this:

(Both images were  taken from bing images)

This body oil makes your skin glow and feel silky smooth! It's a little messy. I don't like how the cap is. I actually poured the product into a small spray container for easy use, because the original bottle can get messy. It's not that oily but if you're not used to the oiliness, you can mix it into a different bottle with either 1/2 water and 1/2 the product. That's what I used to do, but as time went by, I started added only a 1/4 water to 3/4 body oil.


I have gotten a lot of compliments on having gorgeous skin! :) This guy I used to be seeing used to love hugging me because he said my skin was so soft. haha ;)

Hope you guys like this!

Work in Progress; DRAWING!

I've been feeling very artsy lately!

I started this piece last weekend. I worked on it for one day just to have a rough sketch/guideline for the next time I worked on it.

P.S. I know the lighting isn't great. My camera officially stopped working a week ago. So I've been taking pictures with my phone.


hehehe Isn't it LOVELY?! hahahaha It looks scary in my opinion. This is how my pictures usually start off. hahaha I just like to see the before and after images because I'm just like, "How did I turn this into that?" haha

Here's the picture as of right now below...I'll work on it more tomorrow and then I'll continue working on it next weekend. I only draw on the weekends.


The left eye isn't complete. So it looks odd. heee



have a good night!

My WEEKEND Make-up Routine

I have a weekend make-up routine that is a bit different than what I would usually wear during the weekdays, mainly because I don't have enough time before work to apply make-up. haha Most days I don't even wear any make-up to work! I just go all naturale. ; )

But this post is about my weekend make-up routine. There is no step-by-step tutorial or anything. I just wanted to show you guys what I've been using & wearing during my weekends. :)

I start off with a clean face! And this is what I use:

left to right: H20 Face Oasis Cleanser (also good for removing make-up!), Eye Treatment, & Moisturizer

And here are all the goodies!

Starting from the left:

Maybelline EyeStudio gel-liner in Carbon
Wet N Wild mineral bronzer in 167 Amber Glow
Covergirl Lip Perfection in Temptress or Enchantress. (whichever I feel like wearing at the time ;) )
ELF Powder brush
ELF contour brush
ELF small angled brush
KATE palette in GD-1
Wet n Wild eyebrow Kit
ELF primer
ELF eye concealer and highlighter in light
Fake Lashes I bought from Wal-mart...haha

This is the my FOTD from earlier before I went shopping:


I actually used a different palette in this picture. I'm wearing Physician's Formula palette in Pop Hazel eyes. I  used the taupe color and the very last purple color in the palette. hehe
I just pictured the KATE palette because on most days I am using that (especially since it's part of my Project pan, which I have been neglecting! Oops!)

& If you haven't noticed, I don't use mascara! I don't use mascara and I don't usually curl my lashes when I wear falsies. The falsies conceal my own lashes so well, I don't have to worry about curling them or wearing mascara. lol! And I don't like wearing mascara with fake lashes because I think it's messy and messes up my fake lashes. Or maybe I'm just too clean because once a week I wash/clean my lashes and brushes. lol



Anyway, I hope you guys had a wonderful weekend!

CHANGES?? CH0LA LOOK:.

Hey, Everyone!

It has been a while since I posted something of purpose. haha :p But I camera is currently OTS and it has been for a long time now. :( I need to buy a new one I guess, but I'm so attached to my camera and want to somehow magically fix it. lol So, that's one reason why I haven't been posting anything! Another reason is I've just been going through some changes in my life & have been very busy trying to figure things out. I know that's unbearably vague, but I'd prefer not to talk about it. :p

But anyways! I talked to my friend back home & I haven't talked to her in over a month, so it was exciting to catch up with her! :) We happen to get on the topic about doing a Chola look! lol! I wanted to surprise her by doing my make-up that way, so after I got off the phone I did one and when she called me back I showed her. hahaha!

BTW, If you're wondering, I took these pics from my webcam. & Expect if I do post pictures, they came from my cell phone, which isn't of great quality. ugh

Fake eyebrows:
Outlined using Smashbox felt-tip liner in black

Rest of Make-Up:
ELF studio Eyeshadow Primer
KATE Kanebo eyeshadow in Guradical eyes BK-1
Salon Perfect Eyelashes # 13 in black
Maybelline gel-liner in Charcoal

Happy Holidays Everyone

It's been a while!!! How is everyone doing? I hope all of you are healthy and happy! Please have a safe and happy Christmas & New Years with your family, friends & loved ones! :)

I'm going home for Christmas & am EXTREMELY excited!! Because I didn't get to spend any of the holidays with my family last year. :( So this year it means a lot to me that I get to see them! :)

In other news, I haven't posted anything beauty related in a while! My camera is messed up and I don't know why! Maybe I just need to get a new one, even though the camera I own now isn't very old!

Once I am able to take pictures, I will share with you guys what I have been up to!

But for now, take care and stay safe if you're traveling! :)
