“LET A HUNDRED FLOWER BLOOM”
MAO ZEDONG

Hey ya! Spring is almost here! and so are bright and bloomy and gloomy days are back! After such a brutal winter of -35 below herein, Canada the season almost arrived and I waited to go out and enjoy the sunshine. Not the real blooms but I do have a post for you guys to consider flowery hair accessories this summer, which are not only cute but give a feel that you are almost wearing flowers in your hair!!

I love accessories of all kinds, apart from that they are the most integral part of fashion and style. A piece of accessories can take your whole look to the next level with a statement. One correct adornment can save you from ruining the whole look that’s what I feel about accessories. I do believe that these beautiful pieces play a vital role in your overall appearance actually, they play an equally visible role when it comes to enhancing your fashion game. Trust me these cute little things are so very important!

In this post, I am going to mention one such ornament which enhances the look of the crown of our whole personality. Yes, you are thinking absolutely right! Although there are many of them, I am going to talk about floral hairpieces which are as fresh as spring air and look so beautiful when you wear them.

Whenever you dream of garden parties and sundowners, tea parties or any blossomy theme party these beautiful flowery tiaras, bejewelled hair bits and kitschy bandanas will definitely get you there. One can literally have a love affair with these floral crowns, these beautiful, blooming, bright and colourful wreaths are popular style at the solstice, beach, high teas, BBQ outdoor dinners or even weddings with flower-patterned themes and keep us inspired to get these awesome head tappers all the way through festivities.

We have beautiful blooming creations to opt from whether it is a satin hairband with rose corsages, big crystal hair accessory, floral print head bandanas, crystal-encrusted headbands, crystal-encrusted metal hair clips or pearl and crystal brooches to immediately transform us into princesses.

You know what? the best part of these head tappers is; that you can even DIY them at your own home with lots of creative additions and little fuss. So let’s begin with the most romantic spring trend which is all flowers, to nail the whole look don’t forget to wear a floral dress with that.

PS: Try to pull up your hair into a beautiful bun and highlight the brooch and let your hair open for headbands.

Happy Spring Ahead Everyone!

” Makeup is an extraordinary tool that allows me to share my inspirations, my fantasies, and my vision with the world”
PAT McGRATH

Glittery eye accents and warm highlights are definite standouts for any season, especially when we are transforming from one season to another. And taking this to newer heights by trying on earthy tones is a bang-on! My love for earthy tones will never end and also it’s my mantra when I am not planning to go overboard and keep it close to simple. Earthy shades always glam up the whole look by keeping it subtle which other shades or colour palettes rarely do. You can play any which way with these earthy shades as they rarely go wrong and can be experimental any time you want.

Let me decode one such makeup look which includes all earthy shades from head to toe as you can accessorize this look with a proper hairdo and take this to next level.

Like previous tutorials again we have to focus on three major areas to nail this look!

Let me start with:

CHEEKS

Moisturise your skin, I used Aveeno Moisturiser the best suitable for any skin type.

Do a liitle Poreless primer, I used Wet and Wild Primer all over my face.

Apply foundation and dab it evenly. I used Elf Flawless Finish Foundation.

Will use bronzer in the end, not now.

EYES

Choose an ordinary eyliner, I used Nyx Eyeliner make it winged liner to enhance the look.

Well shaped Eyebrows is a bonus feature to add with this.
Glam it up with gold or bronze accents.
This eye makeup involves a warm metallic earthy shade for an eyeshadow as per your skin tone, I used L’oreal Infalliable Eyeshadow.

Swipe up the mascara to amp up the look.

You can slightly play with the eyes by giving hint of metallic dab to inner and outer corners.

LIPS

This look demands something ingenious to go with.
Just a hint of nude gloss lipstick, I used L’oreal Pro Gloss lipstick.

Yes, you are right! not a right time to wear statement lips as we are looking for overall earthy look for a face. So nothing works best then Nudes.

Finally, give a hint of bronzer to the cheeks which belong to an earthy colour palette for finishing!

Not to mention, to augment the whole look I opted for a voluminous top knot with geometrical earrings.

Everything on the face feels so real and natural with a hint of metallic glam but still ethereal and that’s the whole beauty of this makeup do! I hope you guys like it and give it a try for your next night out with family or friends.

Stay safe, Keep Smiling!

PAINT IT OR KEEP IT FRENCH?

LIFE IS NOT PERFECT BUT YOUR NAILS CAN BE!
..

In this blog post, I am taking you to the most interesting comparison or opinionated nail theory regarding your nails. A million-dollar question is whether you want to keep them painted sophisticatedly or you want to go elegant by doing a French manicure. The debate is endless and so are the discussions. But to each his own, if you ask me I totally go with the time and occasion or probably season to carry one out of the two. But here I am going to compare both of these nail trends which I was eyeing to do for so long.

The difference between the polished and scruffy is in the way you paint your nails. Do try both of these looks this summer.

But before moving so we have to keep a few things in mind :

a) Exfoliate your hands and nails before applying nail polish.

b) Remove all traces of old polish and clean dry your hands.

c) Oil in nails can deter polish from being applied evenly.

d) Using a basecoat strengthens the nail. Some products help even out any imperfections or dips in the mail.

e) Nail polish peels off faster if you don’t dry each coat completely before applying a new coat.

f) If your nails have ridges use a ridge filler.

g) Taking Vit-B supplements regularly helps strengthen nails.

Let’s start with :

PAINTED SOPHISTICATION

Apply a base coat to your nails. let it dry completely.
Dip the brush in the nail polish coat it completely, then wipe the brush on the inside edge of the bottle to remove any excess paint.
Apply with the brush starting from the cuticle edge to the tip in a single sweep, positioning the brush to the center of the nail.
Now apply the next stroke in a similar way to the left of the earlier stroke and then similarly on the right, doing this till you paint the entire nail. Then apply second coat.
Finish it off with clear polish and let it dry completely.

PS: Move the bottle gently in between your palms instead of shaking it vigorously before applying, as it may cause air bubbles.

FRENCH ELEGANCE

Apply a base coat to your nail. Let it dry completely.
Now place a tip guide on your nail that covers the bottom part of your nail and help you get a clear white tip.
Use white polish to paint the tips of your nail in a clean motion, following the curve of your nail or painting straight if you want a sqaure tip. Let it dry.
Now use a sheer or clear pink nail paint and paint over the whole nail from cuticle to to tip, following the instructions as mentioned in the single colour, let it dry and apply a second coat.
Finish off with a coat of clear polish over the entire nail and let it dry completely.

PS: A clear polish gives your nails a proper finish. Applying a clear polish every couple of days will also make your french manicure last longer.

So above are a few steps to do the nail of your own like and kind. If you personally ask me I will definitely keep occasion or season in mind to actually nail this nail look. Hope you guys can try these simple steps to see how your nails come out to be. For painted nails, you can opt for any colour of your choice and for French Manicured nails at home you can buy a kit with everything inside it all you have to do is just follow the instructions.

So enjoy beautiful nails and Take care!

Stay safe! Stay Healthy!

KOHL V/S LIQUID LINER

YOUR EYE MAKEUP SAYS SO MUCH ABOUT YOU AND YOUR STYLE
LAURA MERCIER

After a long time, I am posting a comparison post. I opted for something which is extremely prominent in doing makeup and always a question of interest among makeup lovers. So I picked the comparisons between KOHL and LIQUID EYELINER.

Whereas KOHL is soft, mysterious and mesmerizing on the other hand LIQUID EYELINER is bold, defined and edgy.

Let’s find out what makes both absolutely different essentials

Beginning with KOHL

Usually, it’s been noticed a woman who is least interested in makeup will have Kohl Pencil on her. Kohl-lined eyes are stapled for makeup lovers. it has been this way long before beauty brands packaged it and made a makeup must-have. Despite having a striking resemblance to an eye pencil.

Kohl’s crayon-like texture makes for a thick and soft application.
It gives rich, deep colour in just a single stroke making it a great tool for makeup newbies.
Kohl looks great on warm skin tones and dark eyes(pupil).
This is great for night out and gives you mesimerizing eyes in few strokes.
Team it with few generous coats of mascara and mythical eyes will be yours in routine
Kohl makes eyes look magical. Smokey eyes done with Kohl, teamed with mascara and eyeshadow to look simply goregeous and seductive.

Now let’s talk LIQUID EYELINER

Liquid Eyeliner needs a bit of professional hand to do it right, It’s so close to perfect kind of a thing that if you go wrong with it, it will ruin the whole makeup look

With Liquid eyeliner you won’t have to deal with clumps as opposed to Kohl.
They are availabale in differnt colours and textures.
Most of them available in a market are waterproof and smudge proof, which means higher longitivity than Kohl.
Can be applied much more smoothly than Kohl which makes them excellent for doing a sharp winged tipped or cat eye look.
Liquid eyeliner is only doable once you’ve developed steady hand, as it requires precision and practice.
Liquid Eyeliner does not have the softness of Kohl and is ususally never used along with dramatic eyes.
If you prefer the neat, yet dramatic look over the smudgy smokey eye, this one is definetely for you.
Liquid Eyeliners are smudge proof and a great way to get neater and well defined eyes. Besides they are available in so many colours.
It lacks the earthy feel of the Kohl that enhances the palyful glint in the eyes.

So folks there were a few points of comparisons between both makeups essential. Now it’s on you to decide which one you like most and what is your inner feelings is it Mysterious as KOHL or Edgy as LIQUID EYELINER.

Hope you enjoyed reading this! And follow your inner being to decide which one you like most. Till then!

Stay healthy and stay safe!

UPDATING CAT EYES

YOUR EYES ARE PORTAL TO ANOTHER PLACE, FULL OF MAGIC AND MYSTERY
..

Here I am going to put forward a very easy tutorial for you all to get this updated cat-eye version for your next night or day outing with your friends and family or just for that perfect date you are planning for so long.

Tried cat eyes before many times, as this look never goes off the radar. As the year passes by never saw any downfall in the popularity of this eye trend, it seems equally popular since the time it was invented. Just in case you think that feline flicks are having a hard time you are wrong as it got an update. OG always remains my favourite but I don’t mind the update as well and we all should try out this latest prick which is inspired by an edgy version of my fav cat eyes. It needs precision but with the updated version we can play a little bit.

LET’S START WITH:

Cleanse and Moisturise your face, that’s the first thing to do before any makeup or eye look.

Apply a face primer for a flawless base. Use illuminating foundation all over your face and neck. Blend it well with a foundation brush.

Dust your cheeks with warm nude blusher.

Smooth primer over your eyelids and layer a dark black eyeshadow up to the crease. Then swoop a thick line of liquid eyeliner along the top lash line, extending into a thin, sharp tip.

Using a smudging brush, slash a metallic silver/baby blue eyeshadow along the lower eyelids to amp up the look

Wrap up the look by sweeping a generous dose of mascara on your upper eyelashes and some nude-beige creamy lipstick with a little gloss.

TIP TO NAIL IT LIKE PRO:

Use a stencil or credit card at the end of the eyes to get those super sharp rocker chick flick if you really want to keep it sharp at the end.

Thanks for reading and hope y’all going to try this Cat Eye Update look for your next outing.

Stay Safe! Stay Healthy!
