Back to tests

Did you stay up late last night studying for your anatomy and physiology test? Or any test for that matter. Well here are a few tricks to help you look gorgeous and awake when it comes to the morning!

Well first WASH YOUR FACE! especially if you forgot to do it the night before. All of that oil from the day before is still sitting on your face so do yourself a favor and give it a good wash. Tip: Rinse your face with warm water before putting treatment on it so that your pores will open up and get a better clean. To rinse off use cold water, it closes your pores and makes your face look more awake.

Next, apply a moisturizer all over your face, if you have oily skin like me, skip the moisturizer and just dab your face in your problem areas with an astringent of some sort.

Apply an even layer of foundation all over your face and blot with powder so it will stick. Make sure to get under your eyes so any dark circles you have wont show. Don't pack on the makeup because that will just make you look worse. Add a little bit of eyeliner to the top lid to open your eyes (avoid putting it on the bottom, it will close your eyes) brush a neutral eyeshadow over the lids and put on some mascara:) You'll look more awake and it's super easy.

Don't forget! Wash your face:)

Friday Night Lights!

Okay so the first football game is coming up and you obviously don't want to go out looking like a mess. And hey! there's still time for you to meet a cute boy;) So First I'm going to start with what to wear!

Okay well wear your school colors! Wear a schedule shirt or just one of your school t-shirts. If you don't have one wear a tank top with one of the colors from your school. Cute and simple! Next, wear shorts because god knows it's going to be hot. One thing I've learned is DO NOT pack on the lotion. Yes of course you want your legs to look good when the field lights hit them but the last thing you want is gooey legs. Gross! Put a dime size amount in your hands and just run it down your legs. It will give it the smoothness and the nice glow from the lights without the grossness. 

Alright moving on. Now if you're anything like me you want to impress boys! There's only one problem about wearing makeup to football games or any sporting event for that matter, it smears. You don't want to look like Frankenstein's bride halfway through the game. Soooo here are a few tips to keep your eyeliner, eye shadow, etc. from smearing!
First, USE A PRIMER! I can't stress that enough. The reason your eyeliner comes off or smears is because of the oil in your eyelids. You can get a cheap primer from Walmart or get a higher priced from urban decay. It doesn't matter, just use one!
Also, if you wear face makeup, after you apply your foundation put powder over it. This will keep it in place. But make sure you don't soak your face in foundation because it will come off! One thing i like to pack in my wallet/purse are the blotting papers, you can find them at Walmart, target, and basically every drug store.

Next you have to deal with your hair. Before you go all out and style your hair, think about your climate! Is it going to be humid or dry? Is there a chance of rain? Basically it all comes down to climate. Don't spend an hour curling or straightening your hair when you know as soon as you step outside that it's going to frizz. My advice is to wear it up. Wear your hair in a high pony-tail and put a ribbon in it. Also, you could french braid your hair into one or two braids. If you're self conscience about putting your hair up, wear a headband to at least get the hair out of your face.


To finish of the look wear a cute pair of sandals, flats, or tennis shoes. Doesn't matter:)
