2016 Beauty Trend: Nude Nails

Arianne SuggsUpdated on April 21, 2016April 21, 2016Leave a Comment

We’re living in a world where we buy one thing and two seconds later it’s yesterday’s news. From our smartphones to our Jimmy Choos, everything seems to come packaged with an end of cool date. The beauty world is no exception to the expiration rule. Beauty trends come and go, but one trend that we are proud to say made it another year in the realm of fabulosity is one that is actually quite a lifesaver too. The 2016 Beauty Trend that is a girl’s best friend and a nail color classic is nude nails.

Nude nails are like the equivalent of the black heel, it will basically go with everything. No guesswork, no fretting and absolutely no fear of the dreaded discoloration often connected and associated with darker nail tints.

Nude Nails- Get The Look

There are several nude nails shades on the market but these are two of our personal favorites. We tested both and two coats are all you need to look like you went and treated yourself to a salon mani! Shhh! We’ll never tell…

ESSIE Spring 2016 Collection “High Class Affair”

ORLY “Pure Porcelain”

Cool Factor: Nude nails just a tad too much of, how do we say, a bore? Welp, you would not be alone. Many shy away from the tint due to its very conservative vibe. Nevertheless, don’t be afraid to add some embellishments in order to take things up a notch.

We are still reminiscing of the nail look we spotted for the Lie Sangbong Spring/Summer 2016 Collection. Nails were given a textured effect. You can get the same look by applying a coat of your favorite creamy/neutral nail polish to clean and filed nails. Then apply two coats of a textured topping such as Jinsoon x Barney’s Sahara Topping. Finish things off will a coat of glossy topcoat and you’ll be the belle of the nail art ball.

Arianne SuggsUpdated on April 20, 2016April 19, 2016Leave a Comment

We are still obsessed with Rihanna’s Coachella attire, but hey the first step is admittance right? There were so many awesome aspects of Rihanna’s outfit for the popular annual music festival that we will do our best to break it all down. First off, we want to give it up one time for all the bling factor that RiRi had going on. She truly was shining bright like a diamond as she partied the night away with Oscars’ winner, Leonardo DiCaprio. One fabulous piece of style greatness that we are still obsessed with is Rihanna’s Coachella 2016 Spring Gucci Sunglasses.

When your career is red hot why shouldn’t a girl literally look like a shining star? For weeks we had been seeing Gucci’s spring eyewear and one pair took us by fashion storm. Mainly because we are such suckers for anything bedazzled. Therefore, an accessory with a rhinestone factor would definitely do it for us. Moreover, Rihanna’s Coachella 2016 Spring Gucci Sunglasses are for the girl who WANTS to be seen. For the girl who’s bold, a style risk-taker and comes alive at night. If that’s you then you really need these shades.

The rest of Rihanna’s look just kept getting better and better. She wore a vintage Harley Davidson sweatshirt and then ladies as well gents there was the jewelry. Hang on tight. First, take a closer look at the following photo then we’ll explain.

Rihanna wore three stunning jewelry pieces. The first two came from Lynn Ban: the Cameo Necklace as well as RF Initial Rings. Then the crown jewel was by Fallon, Fallon’s custom made Chantilly Lace Bandana. We want this bandana SO bad. It was blinging more than the stars that night! Fallon’s bandana is literally made with a vintage Hermes scarf. Style Achievement unlocked.

Between Rihanna’s Coachella 2016 Spring Gucci Sunglasses and her insane jewels she hands down won best-dressed. Keep on rocking RiRi and we’ll just keep obsessing.

Sometimes trying to get your makeup to look amazing all day can feel like you are practicing to be the next great Houdini. Trust us, we get it. Without skilled technique those bags and dark spots aren’t just going to disappear on their own, or will they? We recently set off on a quest to find a beauty product that would make cosmetics life easier. As mother would always say, “Work smarter, not harder darling.” Moreover, besides the time factor who us would bat an eye at a product that not only erases blemishes but also improves the condition of the skin? Not many of us. Therefore, looking like a IG Beauty 24/7 doesn’t just come about by chance or thanks to some secretive Jedi beauty sponge. A gorgeous look can be created if you make sure that you have the right tools in your beauty arsenal. So then, if you want a perfect makeup look to be “in the cards” all you need is one product… the YSL Top Secrets Instant Moisture Glow.

Okay, that is quite the mouthful right? Most importantly what can be accomplished or achieved with the YSL Top Secrets Instant Moisture Glow? Well, think of it as your secret Genie in a Bottle (or in this case a tube) that can grant all your beauty wishes. YSL is toting their product as being able to blur imperfections in order to achieve impossibly beauty perfection. How so? The Creative Director of YSL Beauty, Lloyd Simmons, explained,

“[YSL] Top Secrets Instant Moisture Glow has an ultra-sensorial texture that durably hydrates the skin and carries the blurring technology of an invisible foundation. Within seconds, skin adopts the softness of satin and makeup appears more beautiful than ever before.”

Magic in a tube? Well, if it is we’ll just keep it our little “top” secret.

Justine Skye High Ponytail Flipped To Side!

Arianne Suggs April 18, 2016April 18, 2016Leave a Comment

We cannot put it into exact words but there is just something absolutely hair-licious about a high ponytail reaching towards the heavens. If such a hairstyle could talk it would say something to the effect, “Hi, I’m a style and I’m like super fierce. What up?” Beyond that mix in some more dramatic attitude by flipping the script and pulling said hairstyle to the side and you’re just asking to command attention! The Purple Unicorn recently decided to let her tresses reign the hair game. The Justine Skye High Ponytail is what spring 2016 hair trends are all about and then some!

What’s not to love about the Justine Skye High Ponytail? It’s cool and modern thanks to her signature deep purple hair color. Plus, the volume of the tail makes the style seem less stiff and ridiculously fun to rock.

Nevertheless, what makes the voluminous tail such a nice touch is the sleekness leading up to the tail. To pull that off you will need a product with some serious holding power! All gels, pomades and edge control products are not created equal. Steer clear of of any gels that contain alcohol. Such gels will dry out your strands which is a major no-no if your goal is hair growth. Therefore, what are our suggestions for sculpting the Justine Skye High Ponytail?

Piece of cake! Here are two products that will have your hair laid in no time:

ECO STYLER OLIVE OIL STYLING GEL

ORGANIC ROOTS STIMULATOR OLIVE OIL EDGE CONTROL

We recommend using the gel to mold the ponytail into place. Then use the edge control for any stubborn strands. Nevertheless, if your hair is being a total you know what, just apply the edge control all over the base and brush like you’re in an aerobics class. Happy ponytail creating dolls!
