Well we've made it past Monday right? For today's "Fast Tip Tuesday" I wanted to talk about Blush. Sometimes it's hard to know where to start and stop it and what kind to use. As far as the type (cream or powder) it's very much personal preference. I use both. For my complexion I like a very pink blush because it looks better with my very blonde hair. I apply powder and then a very small amount of a stick on the very top of where I apply the blush. So the Fast Tip is when you apply, allow two fingers from your nose and then start your application. For today pearl studs, pink suit, pink cheeks, and messy pony!
Cinco De Avocado
Recently one of my fabulous followers asked me to do more "Fast Tips" and I am delighted to do so! Even though I only do hair and make up by request I love doing it and learning as much as I can. An extra bonus is getting to share it with you. So I give you "Fast Tip Tuesday"!
Happy Cinco De Mayo! It's no secret an avocado is basically my favorite thing to eat. I always have them at the ready. Today I give you two different ways to use that avocado.
Before you get the tequila shots and guacamole ready here is an awesome hair mask:
Peel an avocado and get rid of the seed, mash well, you can even use a blender. Add one egg yoke and a 1/2 teaspoon olive oil. Throw it on from root to tip and let it sit for about 30 minutes. After that wash it really well with shampoo and conditioner. It leaves your mane so silky and smooth!
Next, this is my favorite guacamole recipe. It's easy and quick and I will absolutely be eating it tonight!
- 2 avocados
- 1 small red onion
- 1 (or more) garlic clove..I like mine very garlicky
- 1 ripe tomato
- 1 juiced lime
Mash those bad boys up in a bowl and toss in everything else. Then, do a shot of tequila because it's Cinco De Mayo damnit! Cheers!
Big Blooms
I haven't been in love with an outfit like this in a long time. Yes, there is a lot going on but in my opinion, the perfect amount. There are a couple trends from the runway adapted into real life here. First, as I said pants are billowy this season which I must say is such a nice change of pace. I am loving this look. Next, is mixing prints. I've always been a big fan of mixing leopard with the right floral print and adding the stripe makes this look pop. Last is of course floral prints! I'm a huge accessory girl so pearls, a scarf, hat, and my favorite handbag complete this outfit! Oh, and of course a glass of vino!
