Homemade Beauty... Self Tanner

In need of a tan and don't have the time to get one?

And then it gets worse...

You check your beauty cabinet and are out of Self-tanner as well...

So what now??

Mix your favorite powdered bronzer with you moisturizer for a temporary self-tan. It won't stain your skin like a self-tanner, and will wash off in water, but it works for a quick fix!

Bonus?

Mix a drop of body oil or olive oil with moisturizer for an all-over shimmer. Or maybe even add some loose glitter for shimmer and sparkle :)

Homemade Beauty: Ice Facial

It may not sound very pleasant, but running an ice cube over your face has a ton of benefits for your skin! They will help to smooth your complexion by combating fat cells, easing wrinkles, fighting acne, and promoting blood circulation that will help heal past blemishes! Be sure to wrap the cubes in a paper towel, or a baggie because applying them directly to your skin can cause delicate blood vessels to break For an added benefits to this treatment, try freezing your cubes with watermelon, lemon, or rose!

Nadine West: Third Shipment

Another Nadine West bag! This is such a fun little bag, and I have really looked forward to every one thus far! These are the Simple Sparkles "diamond" stud earrings. Though these are very cute and I actually kinda wanted to keep them, I have too many pair that are too similar. These did retail for $6.49 though, which is suuuuper reasonable. This is the Make a Wish necklace. I wanted to like this based off of the name, but it just really isn't my style! I don't feel like I can pull off a crown necklace/princess persona... But anyway, this retails for $17.99, which I feel is a bit much for cheap jewelry. This is the Constance top. It is like a baby pink chevron cami, and I wasn't into this really. I have enough camis, and am not really into printed ones, so this just wasn't my style. This retailed for $9.49, which isn't too bad Fianlly, we have the Zipped floral romper, and as you might have guessed it has a zipp...

Homemade Beauty... Banana Sugar Body Scrub

You will need... 1 ripe banana 3 tablespoons granulated sugar ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract or your favorite essential oil (optional) Smash ingredients together with a fork into a chunky goop, but don't over-mash or it will become too thin to use. If you want a banana scrub for your face, reserve some of the banana and mash it separately without sugar. In the shower, pat the sugar mixture and gently massage over your body. For your face, gently massage plain banana there, avoiding the eye area. Rinse off with warm water. Credit to http://www.treehugger.com/organic-beauty/8-homemade-salt-and-sugar-body-scrubs.html
