Summer Hair Inspiration

Hello, Beautiful!

And welcome to Thursday, Thursday. I cannot believe how the weeks are just flying by and spring is coming! I'm so happy that the winter is coming to a close :) 

I really have no idea what I am going to talk to you about today, so I am just going to ramble, 

if you don't mind.

I have been trying to grow out my hair, its working and no, I am not putting anything on it. I am however cutting it at the nape of my neck every friday. This is something my Grandmother did for us all the time and I dont know why, but it works. I have also been using thickening shampoos because my hair is kinda on the thin side so I do have to tease it to get some volume in it.

This is the style I would love to have for the summer or something close to it haha :)

What do you guys think of this on me? should I also add the Ombre? Let me know what you all think!

If you have any suggestions for hair thickening please let me know :)

Also heres a video of my most recent eye look, enjoy!

Insecurities, Confidence and Self Esteem.

Hello my beauties!

Wow, this has been a busy week for me with filming and sampling products I have been literally running in circles. Today I wanted to talk to you about something that has been weighing heavy on my heart. This subject touches all of of at one point or another and I wanted to share my views on this matter.

Self confidence or self esteem is something I have been thinking about a lot. I am not a big hater, but I do hate, hate. I hate when people make each other feel bad or even even worse worthless.

To me everyone is beautiful in their own way, we all have our own special qualities that make us unique, one of a kind. And this is something we should celebrate not discriminate.

But more importantly I want to talk to the girl that feels she isn't Pretty, the girl who feels she isn't Smart, the girl who feels she isn't funny or cute, or skinny, or tall, or popular, or anything else she feels is wrong with herself. Yes you! And yes me too!

You are special there is only one of you among a bagillion, gagillion people in this great big world! And that's pretty special. Its okay for you to feel insecure at times, we all do at some point and this is okay. If you didn't feel insecure then something would be wrong.

Marilyn Monroe one of Hollywood's greatest had insecurities about her abilities to perform.

Everyone at some pint her her sexy renditions of Santa baby and happy birthday to J.F.K 

Audrey Hepburn A Fashion Icon and Actress Had insecurities about her body image! 

Can you believe Ms. Holly Go Lightly herself had doubts about her amazing figure.

Gotta Love Adeles Attitude on insecurity. She is no size two, but she has a voice that will bring you to tears and move you so deeply, that you wont care if she sings naked!

Knightly has a few insecurities herself and she made out with Orlando Bloom! Beat that!!

Madonna Is known to have insecurities regarding her body Image and she wore cones as a bra!

Winslet has insecurities about her body image and I can't even think of how uber fantastic she is.

She has has her fair share of leading roles in major motion pictures.

Everyone has insecurities, it is human. Learning to over come them is the key.

 It's about knowing who you are and what your worth, even if you don't know it right now, one day you will.

So stay strong little beauty and know you are very special, indeed.

A day in the life of The Makeup Squid

So, I am sitting here face washed, P.J's on, kids sleeping editing a video on a review I did for a YouTube video and I went over my day in my head. With all the craziness that it entailed and all the special moments that snuck in here and there.

I curled my hair this morning trying to get some life into it.

I filmed three videos in one fell swoop, yay me :)

Had some coffee with my honey, Did I ever tell you I can't order coffee at StarBucks! I just describe what I want to the Barista and they tell me the name, but I always for get it hehe:)

It was cold today my eyes watered all day and I think I am allergic to latex, everytime I wear lashes my eyes get watery, so I have to find a latex free lash glue, any suggestions will be appreciated.

This is me doing my best Pee Wee Herman impression, I have a three year old, so you know.

This was alans first time at StarBucks, He spilt his hot chocolate at the pick up counter and they gave him a replacement saying Oh, know I split my coffee, shhh we ain't telling him its cocoa.

He has the best expressions.

The only guy I know who drinks coffee (Hot Cocoa) with a straw.

So good had to snap it twice :)

My daughter, who made me bring her back to the StarBucks because 

she couldn't believe I went without her.

She had to pose for this one because, she wants to be fabulous and skin care has become her new obsession. Apparently all the fabulous people go to StarBucks.

Well that was my Sunday, it was a good day.

E.L.F Cosmetics Lipsticks Review

On a recent trip to the Dollar General I went browsing through the cosmetics aisle for a nail file and found these E.L.F Lipsticks and I picked them up, of course they were a dollar apiece, but come on, look at those colors :)

Elf lipsticks Voodoo (Left) Fearless (Right).

Elf Lipstick in the color Voodoo Looks like a deep Mauve color, But actually swatches more salmon color.

Elf Lipstick in the Color Fearless looks like a Vibrant rich red, but actually swatches a deep fuschia.

Final verdict:

For a dollar these are really great lipsticks and they have good staying power, Almost stain like.

The packaging is on the cheap side very similar to the W&W lipsticks that don't snap shut.

They are currently out of stock on the elf website, but they are at Dollar General.

7 tips that will save your brows

We have all done it, you know what I am talking about. We over plucked our eyebrows to the point of no return. Either pencil thin or complete chunks missing, young or old it didn't look good.

Over the years I have had my battles with my brows thick and thin and as I got older and learned from my mistakes, I have learned what not to do, to my brows and that brings us to this post.

Tip 1. Shape

Find a eyebrow shape that suits your face, sometimes what we want isn't always best for us.

Tip 2.  Plucking

If your going to pluck, start with just a clean up first. Stray hairs only, then decide if you NEED to proceed.

Tip 3.  Time

When plucking,  pluck one hair at a time and look at your eye brow from a distance.

Tip 4. Point of View

When your plucking or filling  in always and I repeat ALWAYS look away for a bit every so often, then look at your brows. You may like what you see.

Tip 5. Growth

If you are trying to grow your brows out don't apply moisturizer or lotion to your brows. Most moisturizers thin facial hair out and we don't want this for our brows.

Tip 6.  Oil

Olive oil applied every so often to your brow area will promote growth, if you have over plucked.

Tip 7. Filling in

Find a fill in method that works for you, pencil, gel, powder, etc. Do what you are comfortable with and gives you the best results for you and your brows.

So I will leave you with this. If our eyes are the windows to our souls, then Eyebrows are the gates.
Remember our brows are sisters not twins.
