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 :)

Blueberry Crush Sangria

I'm considering a new series on this blog... How would you all feel about wine Wednesdays? Not every Wednesday of course, but just to mix things up sometimes! Most all of the drinks I make end up being something I concoct from various ideas and recipes I see online, and then add wine to it, and voilà, wine punch! And I see a distinct lack of wine punch or creative sangria recipes on Pinterest, so look no further; I'm coming to the rescue! I made this drink recently for a party in which the color theme was purple, so of course we had to have a purple drink! It was met with much praise, and I highly suggest giving it a try! It is a very sweet drink, but can be toned down based on your preferences. It would be the perfect way to bring in Spring! (If it is actually Spring where you live, we just pretend here, it is still snowing) Ingredients Blueberry syrup: Bag of frozen blueberries (minus 1/3 cup.) 1 cup sugar 3 cups water ...

Homemade Beauty: DIY Chocolate Bronzer

You Will Need: A Clean Empty Container Cocoa Powder Powdered Sugar Clean, dry lip brush (or something else small to mix with) Directions Add some cocoa powder to your empty container.

Test some on the back of your hand to see how it looks, and then add more cocoa powder to make it darker, or add in some more powdered sugar to lighten it up. All done! Just think... the next time your man kisses your cheek, you will taste like chocolate! :D

Ipsy: June

So guys... I resubscribed to Ipsy! Since I was back to having a summer job I figured I could spare $10 a month! And so far, this bag wasn't the best, but I updated my profile so it will take a minute for them to readapt. The bag this month though... It is on my swap site on MySubscriptionAddiction if you want it! Needless to say, I wasn't impressed. This is the Kokie nail polish in the color Gone Rio. I hadn't ever heard of this brand before, but the packaging is adorable! Apparently you can buy it at Walmart for around $5. The color is a really nice orange-y coral and it has a decent lasting power considering how rough I am on my nails! Overall I liked it and I would buy from this brand again. This is the City Color Shimmer Shadow in the color Cheers to Life. It is a pretty basic sandy brown with a ton of shimmer, obviously! City Color isn't my favorite brand to get because it is fairly cheap and the products are ki...
