The Winks by Georgie lashes are absolutely wonderful! Check out photos and read my review below!
These lashes are super easy to apply and look flawless and gorgeous. The glue they come with is perfect so you don’t need to worry about buying anything else– this kit has it all!
Apart from the adorably chic compact that these lashes come in, they feel featherlight on the lashes and stay put all day. Let me tell you a few of my tips and tricks for applying these lashes.
How to apply:
1. Roll lashes off plastic gently to help keep their form
2. Measure against normal lashes and trim if necessary. You want they to look fun and flirty but remain natural.
3. Apply a small amount of the lash glue to the back of your hand and roll the lash band in the glue
4. hold lashes with tweezers and let stand 20-30 seconds until the glue dries a bit and is tacky– this will help the lashes stick well and not move around when pushing them into the lash line
5. Place them on the center of the lashes and push down using the other end of the tweezers
6. Apply a small amount of mascara to blend your natural lashes and false lashes and you are good to go!
I definitely recommend checking out these lashes! They are gorgeous and natural but still make the eyes pop. The ease with which they apply is another bonus and they really last all day. Plus when you are finished, use a bit of makeup remover to take off the excess glue, pop them back in their case and they are ready to wear again!

HI EVERYONE! Today is a very exciting day for me and hopefully all of you as well. As you know if you saw my latest video, Bloom has so kindly offered me to be one of their Ambassadors, which means I get to try new products and review them for you first, as well as be involved in the events they do on Facebook, twitter, their website, etc.
Today Bloom is launching ‘the lip scrub’ by Sara Happ on their website and I will be answering questions on their Facebook page all day tomorrow. Definitely check out and like their Facebook page (their Facebook name is bloomdotcom) and ask me any questions that you have!
Thanks for reading everyone and have a fabulous day!!!

Check out photos, swatches, and read my review below!
I was soooo excited to find this eyeshadow base at Ulta the other day. I love skin tone eyeshadow primers and bases because they do a great job concealing any under eye circles or discoloration and keep the eyeshadow bright and vibrant all day. However, I was surprisingly disappointed by this NYX base. I loved the white one but it is a tad too bright of a white and I only like it for certain tutorials and looks.
This base goes one very nice and creamy and does camouflage any discoloration in the lids. However, my eyeshadow started creasing after only a few hours and it just didn’t seem to work for me. My eyelids tend to be a bit on the oily side which is why I need a primer. For dryer or more normal lids this primer may work fine. However, I believe there are much better out there and would go for something different!
Thanks for reading.

Hi everyone! Just a quick post to say Happy April Fools day! I didn’t film any funny tutorial or anything but did get a few jokes played on me. Did anyone “fool” you? Definitely let me know in the comments below!
Nothing really new or exciting going on, but I am filming lots of videos on Tuesday I am really excited about my new white, professional background and concentrating more on tutorials.
Let me know what you all think of that!

These Origins lip glosses are really great in a lot of ways. There are a wide range of colors available that appeal to a variety of customers. The two I chose are a light shimmery pink, and a bright shimmery pink! They have a minty taste that I love and last quite awhile for glosses. The color isn’t sheer like the Tarte Maracuja glosses I reviewed a few days ago which is definitely a plus. The packaging is great and you get a lot of product for only $15. I definitely recommend checking these out!
