Wedding Makeup | christine & aaron say "I do"

Yesterday was a very long but awesome day for me. Weddings are always so rewarding especially when people compliment. Besides my horrible back ache, that is the only negative thing I would have to say.

Below I will share a few photos with you from the wedding. All of these photos are unedited and taken on my iPhone 5s. ENJOY! 

Some of my makeup set up! Getting ready to dig in and paint some faces! 

The beautiful bride on her special day! 
(I did use a Dinair airbrush machine and makeup to smooth out their complexion. I also airbrushed the brides chest and tan lines the best that I could.)
The brides gorgeous sister!

I wish I would have taken more photos of the bridesmaids, everything was just moving so quick. Since Christine is my friend, my husband met me there and we stayed for the wedding. We had a BLAST! I am pretty tired today.

Let me know if you guys have any looks that you want to see. Or if you would like products deets.

Hugs,
Amy

My go-to fall makeup look | Soft Eyes & Bold Lippie

Hope everyone is having an amazing week. Besides my son being sick, I wanted to get up a look I did this past weekend. It has been my go-to fall makeup look for the past few years! HAPPY FALL!



Products Used: 

Eyes: 
  • Primer- Urban Decay Primer Potion
  • Crease- Random palette (orangey-brown) shadow blended out with MAC Soft Brown 
  • Lid and brow bone- MAC shroom
  • Liner- NYC Liquid blended out with Makeup Geeks shadow in Corrupt
  • Brows- Anastasia Beverly Hills brow whiz in blonde, set with Maybelline Clear mascara used as brow gel (I love it and its like $4 bucks)
  • Mascara- Maybelline Pump it up Colossal Volume (pink tube)
  • Lashes- Ardell Wispy


Face:
  • Foundation- Revlon Color Stay in 240-Medium Beige. I get the normal-dry formula even though I have combination skin because I feel like it gives good hydration with good coverage.
  • Concealer- Maybelline Fit Me! concealer in Light (this is a little dark for me now, but worked better for me when I was more tan.)
  • Powder- Rimmel Stay Matte in the color 011-Creamy Natural
  • Bronzer- NYC 720A Sunny
  • Blush- Wet N Wild Pearescent Pink
Lips:
  • Liner- I used NYX in Auburn
  • Lipstick- Milani Cosmetics in Cabaret Blend
(I also moisturized my lips before I put my eye makeup on so they were ready for liner and lipstick, I used vitamin E oil that I squeezed out of a capsule. Works great!)

As you can see, the majority of the product I used were drug store, so definitely affordable. I love finding inexpensive but GREAT products at the drug store. A major favorite of mine lately is the Milani Lipsticks. I love the gold packaging, the way the lipstick smells, it is not drying and stays on pretty well. 


This is definitely a go-to look for me in the fall. I do switch up the lipstick of course. But, in the fall I get out of my comfort zone and try to use darker colors. (I usually stick to pinks and mauves year round). 

If you have any questions, please feel free to leave a comment in the box below.

XOXO,
Amy

My Vegas Experience | August

This August was my first time to Las Vegas, NV since I was a kid when I used to go with my dad. I got invited to go for my friend Christine's bachelorette party. Here are photos of what my weekend looked like. ENJOY!




(This is where we stayed. This is the Rumor Boutique, it is off the strip across the street from Hardrock Cafe.)

LET THE DECORATING BEGIN...





Friday night we went to eat at the Pink Taco inside the Hardrock Cafe hotel. I was really excited, but sadly disappointed when their margaritas were pretty small and weak for $16. Nonetheless, the food was good and below of some photos of my "Friday night look".




After dinner, we went and gambled a little bit and then went to bed.

SATURDAY:

We woke up fairly early on Saturday to get ready to go to brunch at The Wicked Spoon inside of Cosmopolitan. The Cosmo was a beautiful hotel. The buffet also had EVERYTHING you could imagine from sushi to pasta to breakfast food to a gelato bar. And of course, unlimited mimosas and margaritas! We had a fun time. After that, some of us layed by the pool and some napped. I napped. Haha. 

Later that evening, we got ready to take Cheistine to Thunder Down Under! I did Christine and her sisters makeup for the show, along with mine. There a few photos below of our looks and the night.










The show was fun! So much entertainment. The bride even got pulled up on stage and a little bit molested. It was awesome, and she enjoyed it even though her facial expressions looked a little worries. Haha.

After that we went to downtown Las Vegas and listened to a band play and then gambed inside The D hotel and casino. I started feeling a little lightheaded and dizzy from lack of water and all the cigarette smoke that a few of the other girls and I took a cab back to the hotel. 

Sunday, we went back to The D (downtown) and gambled a little but more. I didn't lose any money as I mostly watched for free of losing money.

But, that was my trip in all. I will being the makeup for Christine's wedding at the end of this month. I will be sharing my experience and photos as well! So stay tuned! 

Xoxo,
Amy

Healthy Eats | Tuesday Breakfast

I have always tried to eat healthy, but it wasn't til a few weeks ago that my husband decided to participate and eat healthy as well. It is much easier to stay in track and eat healthy when you have someone in your household doing the same. Cooking meals is easier now as he will eat the healthy meals I cook.

This morning I tried something new: 
1- Brown Rice Rice Cake
2- All natural peanut butter (I am going to try with almond butter next)
3- sliced banana

This was more YUMMY than I expected it to be. It definately gave me a jump start with the little amount of carbs. Perfect for the days I don't have time to do my juicing.

Let me know your healthy eats in the comments below.

Until next time....

Xoxo,
