Beauty tips!

Hello my beauties! Happy holidays, hope you’re having a great time.

This time I’m going to be giving you a few “beauty tips” to use whether on cold or warm seasons c:

×      Most important thing: Drink lots of water! I’m sure you already know that but during cold days we don’t really do that. Your skin could really use that especially with dry and oily skin.

×       Moisturize your lips with Vaseline or lip balm every day! It will prevent your lips from getting chappy. For holiday season warm colors on your lips are the best. I also put on lip balm every night before bed in order to have smooth lips in the morning c:

×      Blush on cold days when your skin is pale helps in giving your skin a healthy look.

×      Brown eyes: navy blue eye-shadow. It makes your eyes pop out. As for blue eyes peach color is helpful to make your eyes stand out. Green eyes: purple shades. Lavender, amethyst etc!

×      If you use mascara then change it every 3 months.

×      Lemonade juice helps lighten your hair. Sit out in the sun or use your blow dryer to help them dry.

×      Pimples… such a problem!  Put toothpaste on your pimples before going to bed and rinse with warm water in the morning. Use an organic one and not gel toothpaste as it’ll help more. Don’t pop them! You’ll only leave scars and cause more breakouts.

×      For fuller lips: extend your lip pencil a bit-but be careful! After that apply your lipstick on top.

×      Moving the mascara wand up and down your tube will cause air to get in it and it will decrease your mascara’s lifespan.

×      Applying a clear top coat on your cracked nail polish and then removing it with a cotton ball is very helpful for all those days you don’t have a nail polish remover!

×      Spray perfume on your knees, wrists and throat and behind your earlobes. Don’t over-do it!

Hope this was helpful. Have a beautiful day!  and happy holidays :3

Growing your hair stronger~

Hello my beautiful friends!

I’ve been looking all over to find something to make my hair a bit stronger and healthier-I have naturally thin hair and tbh I’d like to make my bangs a bit thicker. Here are some tips for all of you lovelies who have the exact same problem as me:

©   We all love styling out hair, whether it’s with a blow dryer, straightening or curling iron e.t.c. Before doing any of these use a heat protectant spray or lotion and don’t over-do it with those tools because you will just fry your hair and have a lot of dead ends, which means you have to cut your hair very often. Also, protect your hair from the sun because UV rays can damage it. Use a protection spray for that, you can ask your hairstylist for a good brand.

©   Drink plenty of water. This prevents your hair from being dried and get damaged easier. Also, remember to eat healthy and get enough sleep.

©     Do not brush or tie your hair when it’s wet. You will cause your hair to break easily. If you’re going to brush your hair make sure it’s damp and use a wide toothed comb. Do NOT overcomb your hair.

©   See if you need any vitamins or anything like that. If your iron is low your hair is more likely to fall easier and get damaged.

©   If you dye your hair or bleach it (this might sound kinda gross to some people) don’t wash your hair for 3-4 days because the natural oil from the hair helps and prevents your hair from damaging.

©   Tie your hair or braid it often. If you sleep with your hair down try to sleep with it in a loose braid or ponytail. You avoid tangles and prevent hair from getting oily that easier. (In my opinion, braid is best for overnight ^^ or a rope twist braid)

If you’re looking for some kind of…Treatment then you can use:

Egg Yolk:

DIY Acne Treatment

Hello again, my beautiful friends. Today, I am back with another DIY for you. As a teen, myself, something I dislike most are pimples! And as a girl with a bit of oily skin unfortunately and sensitive skin, I get them at least a few times a month and they can be painful too. So, here’s a homemade acne treatment for all of you out there!

You will need:

½ lemon

2 tbsp honey

Now all you have to do is mix the honey with the lemon. After you are done with mixing them together then all that’s left to do is apply the treatment/mask on your face and leave it there for about 15 to 20 minutes max.

Optional: You can sleep with it on but then again it’s up to you!

Hope you enjoyed this simple DIY acne treatment you guys, please comment below how this worked for you if you tried it [:  Let other people know! Have a wonderful day!

Pastel Goth guide and sites!

Hello there to all those Pastel Goth girls out there^^ or those that want to be a pastel Goth!

I decided to write this post because I really love the Pastel Goth style, it’s one of my most adored styles. So here’s a, sort of like a guide and some outfits for all of you out there ^^.

First of all guys, remember to be unique! Feel free to get creative and add your own unique touch to everything. I’ll also post links of the sites so that you won’t spend a lot of time searching for the makeup, lashes, clothes etc. ^^

©       Let’s start from the hair: You don’t have to dye your hair but if you want to, and if your parents let you of course, choose a black color and if you go for blonde pick a platinum one. Also, you can dye your hair a nice pastel color such as: mint, baby blue or pink and lavender! Now, if your hair’s short you can use extensions to add volume and length. I recommend buying blonde extensions so that you won’t damage them by bleaching them a ton. To achieve the pastel color simply put a lot of conditioner and add a drop of the color you want. As for accessories, skeleton hands, eyeball bows and stuff like that are recommended. If you want to get a pastel hair color but don't wanna dye your hair then you can get a wig.

©       Moving to the make up! You can use a good powder to get a matte look. Pastel goths are usually seen with black eyeliner and white (on bottom.) If you want to wear eye shadow then use natural colors or pastel. Fake eyelashes are also recommended. Any shade of lipstick can be used but you can use dark colors too. Feel free to try anything that suits you!

©       Clothing! Pick graphics! From crosses to skulls and spooky designs. You can wear a black oversized graphic shirt with pastel bottoms or a skirt. Gothic items such as spikes, studs and garters can be used. Leather items too, such as leather jackets, leggings. Another idea is dip-dyed shorts or colorful leopard prints! Don’t stick in JUST black, that’s not what pastel goth is about ^^ 

©       Shoes!! Very common shoes in pastel goth are creepers and platform leather boots. You can also wear shoes with spikes and studs, whatever suits you!

©       Now let’s put some accessories on! Don’t wear too much jewelry; wear short necklaces or heavy chains. 

©       If you haven’t already; create a Tumblr! Use a cute layout that you like and use some ideas from there but don’t copy everything! Be unique.

Now here's a list of a few outfits, links and sites that you can find clothing and many other stuff:

http://gothiclolitawigs.com has a variety of lashes and wigs or make up that you can get! I, personally, love this site.

 

 

 

I put together some outfits too from stuff that I found ^^ There’s links below!

Back to school soon enough! Are you ready for it? ^^ ( + ideas )

Hello everyone!  It's back to school time soon enough if you haven't started already^^ I start next month. 

I had a few ideas to be honest about organizing every single one of my notebooks this year. I thought that for each subject I'm going to have a different color c: I.e: Blue for maths, green for biology, red for Russian class... and so it goes on.

I thought that this way it would be easier to  find them if I have different colors for each notebook of mine and thus it won't take me a lot of time to find them just in time for class :3 (we don't have lockers here if you guys are wondering ^^ which is a shame because we really need them, our books sometimes are heavy)

Are you back to school yet? Or are you going to start soon? 

Leave comments below whether you're excited about going back to school or not and why :] 

Also what are your goals for this year?

PS. I am excited sort of because it's my last year and I really missed my friends. Not excited about waking up early that's for sure xD But I really want to work a bit harder this year to keep up my good grades. Also, I plan on getting less awkward around people in class, because this year I was literally invisible.

I just don't get it

So, today my friend's boyfriend came to school to see her. None of us like him because he's being sarcasting and we all know that some guys just want a "toy" until they find a new girl to "play" with. 

You're wondering why I started like this but if you're interested just keep reading xD.

 

So 2 of us, me and my cousin (which is also her cousin), tried to warn her and apparently what we did, according to her, is being jealous and wanting to ruin her relationship. So just tell me this: does caring about someone , because their boyfriend or girlfriend is an asshole which is obvious, means you're jealous?

In addition to that, we saw his sister and his cousin, who obviously likes him, following them so we called her to warn her. Her response was just like"so what? they're probably trying to find us" and shit like that-_-

And what kind of relationship is this when you can't communicate with the other and when the other is being sarcastic with you&&all you do when you meet is sit there in silence and send 6 paragraphs of hearts without even talking 90% of the time? o-o

I'm not trying to judge her or anyone else who has this kind of relationship, I'm just saying that if you don't communicate and respect your partner then whatever xD and if caring for your friends is being jealous then I don't know what to say.

I'm sorry for the long blog and the mini rage but instead of getting pissed off and ruining my mood, I thought it would be better to type it.

So it's your turn, tell me about a similar story, share things that bother you, don't be afraid to ask for advice, I don't bite x]

Thanks to whoever read this XD

Much love guys
