e.l.f. palette

There has been such a big hype about e.l.f. products among the beauty community and I thought I would have to see for myself what it was all about. I was very hesitant because I normally don't buy drugstore make up because of the quality, at least for eyeshadows because they are never as pigmented as they look. While I was out shopping I saw that the e.l.f. line in Target was having a promotion where all of the holiday palettes were anywhere between $5- $10 so I figured I would pick one up to try it out. I picked up the all eye shadow $5 palette, and honestly, I'm planning to go back and buy another one because I'm so impressed with the quality and pigmentation. Bellow I included a look that I did using just the palette that I purchased and a picture of the pallet itself. I highly recommend purchasing this palette for yourselves because of it's quality and low price! It's also a great way to venture into brighter colors, such as blue and pink without spending a lot of money!

"Rockstar" gel nails

So i just had my nails done, and i went for the gel nails. What I found super cool about these is that they wear like acrylics, but tend to last longer. Anyway, I chose to get glitter put in the gel, which is commonly known in the nail world as "Rockstar Nails" and I think they are totally adorable! You can get any possible color glitter you want added to them, but since they last a little longer I chose to go with the classic silver. Let me know what you guys think!

Fabulous Felines Collection by MAC

Oh my goshhh!! So my first ever MAC products just came in the mail and I was so excited to play with them! I've purchased two lipsticks from MAC before but I have never owned any of their other products. I have been watching a bunch of videos on MAC shadows, pigments, etc. so I finally decided to try them for myself. I picked up some times as to which shadows were recommended for a MAC started kit, but as I played around on their website I decided to just order the shadows from the Fabulous Felines Collection because the three shadow quads seemed to have some pretty basic shadows to start with. So, I did order all three quads, along with the rubenesque paint pot and the studio sculpt concealer in NC20. I've played around with everything and i have to admit that MAC is my new favorite make-up brand. I took a few pictures of my quads to show you all how they looked, and I will put up some video tutorials within the next couple of days.

Top 5 Picks: August

This is the first video that I have ever recorded but I thought that it was the best place to start. I've seen people do this as a tag video and I thought that was a pretty clever idea, so I would love to hear what you're  favorites of the month, or summer season, are. You guys can share by posting your own video to my comments or just comment on what you like or dislike. (Sorry I look like such a bum, its sunday a.k.a vintage shopping day :)
Can't wait to hear from you all!

Hi, I'm Kaiy!

Hey guys!
     So I'm totally new to this whole Blogging world and I'm so excited to get started! I've been watching some videos and reading a bunch of blogs about clothing and make-up and it inspired me to create my own blog to express my own style. I would like to tell you a little about myself: My name is Kaiy and I have an obsession with fashion and make-up, and just about anything girly. I live at the beach so I kinda have a beach-bum/ boho chic style, which I love to experiment with. I'm always playing with make-up and I've finally come to the point where I am all about color. I'm going to be posting pictures and videos with stuff I find on my shopping excursions and tutorials with tons of make-up ideas. Let me know if you have any comments questions or suggestions as to what I can tell you all about.
Thanks so much!
