My Favorite Accounts On Instagram

Instagram has tons of accounts I love but I'm only going to list people that I check on daily. These are mainly fashion bloggers:

1.) Tara Milk Tea
https://www.instagram.com/taramilktea/

Tara Whiteman is an Australian art and design student who is now a blogger full time. Her instagram has a variety of flat-lays, fashion posts, travel, and food photography. Every post is amazingly beautiful so she is definitely my number one!




2.) Xenia Van Der Woodsen
https://www.instagram.com/xeniaoverdose/

Xenia is a German blogger from Hamburg. Her style is amazing and she is often traveling so I can't help but include her instagram on this list.




3.) Chantel Jeffries
https://www.instagram.com/chanteljeffries/

Chantel is an American DJ from Florida. She also has a YouTube channel which is how I found out about her initially. I love her charming personality and good sense of humor.




4.) Alexis Ren
https://www.instagram.com/alexisren/

Alexis is an American model who now has her own athletic brand and she's always traveling the world. She's very down to earth and open with her followers, which I personally respect and find makes her relatable.




5.) Josephine Skriver
https://www.instagram.com/josephineskriver/

She is my favorite Victoria Secret model - her personality is bright and her confidence I find really inspiring.

Maybelline Barely Branded & Inked in Pink Color Tattoos Metal Eyeshadows Review, Photos, Swatches

I was lucky enough to stop by the CVS on my way home this afternoon and pick up these AMAZING new color tattoos!! I AM IN LOVE.
CVS is having somewhat of a sale on Maybelline products (Spend more than $15 and you get $5 in ExtraBucks - I was planning on purchasing the cream eyeshadows anyway!)

I was playing around with all of my cream eyeshadows last night and I found out that you can switch the tops of the color tattoos with the MAC paintpots and they fit on eachother's packages! So interesting! haha

Maybelline Color Tattoo Metal Eyeshadows in Barely Branded and Inked in Pink ($6.99 for 0.14 oz.)

APPLICATION

Barely Branded is a champagne/cream/tan color with hints of shimmer- a beautiful nude for any skin tone!
Inked in Pink is a light pastel pink with the same amount of shimmer, but more cool toned.

 I already have two of the Maybelline color tattoos- Bad to the Bronze and Tough as Taupe. I have to say- I barely use them! Especially Tough as Taupe. I just don't think they are very flattering on extremely fair skin. When I saw these - I knew I had to pick them up! Perfect colors for everyday makeup!
 These are swatches of the cream eyeshadows: (left to right) Inked in Pink, Barely Branded
 Today I used Inked in Pink as a base and applied MAC's eyeshadow in Starviolet! It turned out beautifully ~
Overall, I would recommend these to ANYONE! They are just as good as MAC's paintpots! (I have Painterly and Indianwood) The staying power may not be as long, but the pigmentation is the same. For any high school or college student, or anyone that has to apply makeup on the run (which is probably most people) I think these are sample products! 
Looking forward to getting lots of use out of them!

Margaret

P.S. I hope you had an amazing Christmas and New Years! 

Leave me any suggestions you have on upcoming blog posts in the comments. I love hearing back from you!

Essie's Figi

I recently went to CVS to pick up shampoo and ended up heading over to the makeup and nail polish section... I had been meaning to get Fiji awhile back, but they were always out of it. I decided to go ahead and buy it. 



I love the light pink color, it seems to go with everything!
Essie nail polishes cost around $8 a piece, but I think they last longer than OPI!



This is a picture I posted on twitter right after I had painted them. (2-3 coats!)
This is two days later!! (No chips or anything!)
I love the color, but I wish I only had to apply one coat to make the color prominent.
What do you guys think?? :)
