Summer Beach Essentials

Hey girlies,

Summer is in full swing! You know what that means? A lot of days Will be spent at the beach....preferably Maracas Beach.
So, the question is what will you bring the beach? What are your beach essentials?

I usually wear my swimsuit and a coverup to go.....so in my beach bag, I will bring:

• Sunscreen SPF 30
• Towel
• A change of clothes which are usually shorts and a top
• Deodorant and body spray
• Sunglasses
• Water
• Money (to buy that bake and shark) lol
• Cellphone
• Lip balm 
• Hair brush 

That's about it... Pretty basic I think

XOXO,

Makeup Dupe- Lipsticks

Hey Girlies,
About a week ago, I posted a Makeup dupe post on Foundations. This week, let's look at lipsticks.- comparing the ever popular and beautiful MAC lipstick shades to drugstore lipsticks.

Affordable dupes

Amazing right? I found this on Pinterest.

Sometimes you just don't want to spend over TTD$125.00 on a MAC lipstick and To find this; something that is more affordable yet looks quite similar in shade is great. I absolutely love this.

Hope this post helps you ladies ☺️


XOXO,

Makeup Starter Kit

Hey Dolls,

A couple of posts ago, I showed you my makeup collection and storage and I received questions like: How did I start with makeup?

I have been getting some requests to do a post a Makeup Starter Kit so here goes:

• Primer- A base for Face Makeup
• Foundation or Tinted Moisturizer- This would depend on the type of skin you have i.e. oily or dry skin. Tinted moisturizer is lighter than foundation and can be used to even out your skin if you're not into the heavy feel of foundation
• Concealer- to cover your imperfections
• Face Powder- to set your makeup/to prevent creasing
• Blush
• Bronzer- I use this to contour my face but can be used to give that sun kiss glow
• Eyeshadow Primer- Base for eyeshadow
• Eyeshadows- I would recommend a palette that has both neutral/natural eyeshadows (day wear)and colorful eyeshadows as well (for a different look)
• Eyeliner- To Line both your top eyelids and bottom. I recommend you start off with an eyeliner pencil
• Mascara- to coat your eyelashes
• Eyebrow kit- to create a more finished eyebrows
• Lipstick/Lipgloss
• Makeup Finishing Spray
• Makeup tools- sponge, brushes, eyelash curler 

Where can you purchase this? at stores like Pennywise or centres like Sacha Cosmetics Image Centre or MAC Cosmetics Centre.

So you purchase all of this, the question is how do you store this? Well you can purchase makeup bags at Pennywise or SuperPharm or you can buy makeup containers at Excellent Stores or IAM & Company.

FYI, I have my makeup stored in containers. I also look to Pinterest to view cute ways to display cosmetics.

I hope this post helps my makeup newbies :)

XOXO,
Kris
