Recent Videos Part Deux!!!!

Hey Beauty Loves, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

I've been posting a lot of videos since my last blog post. Being on vacation from school has given me a lot more free time, which I've been using to make more videos for you guys! Now what better way to spend a snowy night (if you're where I'm from) or just a chill night at home than to watch my most recent videos!!!

1. I Do My Boyfriend's Makeup



I filmed this on Thanksgiving. My boyfriend agreed to this video, although it was torturous for him (love you babe!!!)

2. Christmas Makeup!!!!



A quick little video on makeup I would do for the Holidays. I'd wear this for any party or date, not just during the holiday season.

3. Collective Haul - Forever 21, Victoria's Secret, Sephora, Sears, & Aeropostale



I did a lot of shopping in December, since it was Christmastime. But I thought it would be fun to show you guys what I purchased for myself from some of my favorite stores.

4. What I Got for Christmas :)



I made this video, not to brag or anything, but just to show you guys what I was given this year as Christmas gifts. It's not a haul video, since I didn't purchase any of this with my own money. But a lot of people on YouTube have uploaded this video, so I decided to upload my own.


So there you have it, my most recent videos. I know I don't post that much on my blog, but I promise to start posting more! Pinky Promise!!!

Stay Beautiful. Stay Strong. Stay You.

Recent Videos!!!!

Hey Beauty Lovers!!!!

OMG!!!! I've been seriously slacking on my blog posts lately. Thousands of apologies go out to you all. I've been really busy with school and work. However, the Holidays are just around the corner, which means vacation for me!! WOO HOO! I'm on campus right now, and I'll be heading to work in just a few minutes. Since I have some time right now, why not post an update for you all.

Listed Below are my recent videos from my YouTube Channel. Hope you Enjoy!

1. What's in My Bag?
Just your normal, everyday tag video. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but feel free to watch if you're into watching these types of videos :)

2. Aeropostale Haul!
I've been loving the new pieces that Aeropostale is selling. I used to not really shop there as much. However, I really love their new style, so I just had to go do some shopping!!!!

3. Fall Makeup Tutorial!!!!

My first official tutorial!!!!!! I purchased a BH Cosmetics Palette (at an incredible price, btw). So the day it came in, I immediately filmed a video and uploaded it. I could wear this look anytime of the day, I would just switch up the lips. For the daytime, I'd use maybe a nude or pink lip. For the evenings, I'd use a red lip (as seen in the video).

So those are just my recent videos that I've uploaded. I did have a Halloween Tutorial, but for some reason, it just wouldn't upload to YouTube. However, I will be posting some new videos as soon as possible!!!

Stay Beautiful. Stay Strong. Stay You! :)

First Video!!!!! Simple Everyday Makeup

Hey Everyone!!!

So I know I've been MIA for a little while, but I've been busy with work and getting ready to go back to school. However, I'm here to announce that my Youtube Channel is finally up and running!!!! As you can read by the title, this blog post is to showcase my first video. It's just a simple everyday look, well it's a look that I would wear everyday (LOL). It started out as a "Getting Ready with Me" video, but it became a "Simple Everyday Makeup" video because it's very late where I live and I didn't want to pick out an outfit and hairstyle that I was just going wear for like thirty seconds and then take off. Anyways, today's look is a soft eye with a bold lip. The video is down below, as well as a list of the products I used. Hope you enjoy!

Stay Beautiful, Stay Strong, & Stay Tuned for the Next Post

xoxo, Maria

Favorite Eyeshadow Palettes Review :)

hey everyone :) 

So I wasn't sure what I wanted to post a blog about, but I was on my iPad watching some miscellaneous videos (Beauty, Comedy, Music, etc.) on Youtube, and I felt this sudden inspiration to write a new post for my blog. I did some brainstorming, and I finally came up with an idea for a blog post. As you can probably tell by the title, this post is all about my favorite eyeshadow palettes at the moment. These are the palettes that at the moment I consider them to be my "go-to" palettes. What I mean is that these are the palettes that I'm currently using for my makeup, because I love the way the colors look on me. So without any further ado, let's get on with the tutorial. 

(Just as an added FYI, I purchased all of these products with my own money, I'm not being compensated for my opinions on each product, and all opinions are my own)

The first eyeshadow palette I'm using at the moment is the Photo-Op Eye Enhancing Palette by Smashbox Cosmetics, which I purchased at Sephora. What I really love is that each palette in this collection is for a different eye color. The colors in each palette are the right colors that will make your eyes pop. I have hazel eyes, so I bought this palette, but in the future I want to buy the other palettes and see if those eye shadows would look good on me. I've played around a lot with this palette, experimenting with different color combinations and seeing which ones I like the best. however, personally, I really like how the olive green color looks on my eyelids on its own. However, I think that color would go well in the crease, with the gold color in the middle on the lid and the cream colored shadow as a highlight on the brow bone. I can think of a bunch of different combinations for eyeshadows and I cannot wait to try them. (I may have to make a video using this palette on its own, let me know in the comments if that's a good idea) 

This second palette is from Avon. It's the True Color eyeshadow quad, and it's in the shade Mocha Latte. This is one palette that I have yet to use on its own. Since I got this palette, I've been using the lightest color in the palette as a highlight and the second color and the darkest color in the palette in my crease. I experimented with the second color and darkest color by using them together. I start by putting the second color in the crease and then the darkest color on top of it. I think this method deepens the color in the crease, and it makes it look a lot better. I've been combining this crease method with a lot of my natural eye looks, and it's been working pretty well. 

The last palette, and probably my most favorite of these three palettes is Kat Von D's True Romance eyeshadow palette, and its in the shade Sinner. This is another palette I found at Sephora. I love the colors in this eyeshadow palette and I love that it comes with a pencil liner. If you buy this palette, I definitely recommend using the pencil liner that it comes with. It stays on all day and it doesn't smudge at all. I recently used this palette and I used the pink color (first from the left) on my lids, and the purple color (second from the left) in my crease. I really liked the way this shadow combination looked on me and I'm definitely gonna wear it that way again. 

Stay Strong, Stay Beautiful, & Stay Tuned for my next post :)

Much Love, Maria<3

another blog post, another change :)

hey everyone!!!!

so I know it's been a long time since my last post, but I've been really busy with school and working and other activities that I've been involved in. so this blog post is to say that I'm changing the nature of this blog once again! yes I know I said that before and that this was going to be about fashion and music, but I've decided to revamp it and do something different. 

so now I would like to reintroduce you to

my blog. this blog is going to about my life in general, but with one little twist. in conjunction with my upcoming YouTube Channel, this will also feature blog posts about beauty. I'm in the process of starting a new YouTube channel that is strictly about makeup and fashion. So whatever videos I post on YouTube, (makeup tutorials, OOTD's, Shopping Hauls) there will be a blog posted about it here. I started on YouTube as a teen fan fiction writer. I was a fan fiction writer for about 2 years. But I've grown out of that and even though I'm not writing anymore, I will leave that channel as it is, because I know there are teens out there on who enjoy reading my work. 

so with a new YouTube Channel, a new blog is born. the name of this blog will be changed soon, as soon as I can think of a creative name :) but I will be posting a new entry very soon so look out for that!

Stay Strong, Stay Beautiful, & Stay Tuned <3

Much Love, Maria
