So in this months boxy was pretty amazing. They have a hash tag every month special for there box for that month and for this month its #boxyafterdark – In this months box there are some brands that I have never heard of before.

How to Clean Make-up Brushes

Leave a comment

Hello I know its been a while that I have been on here. A lot has been happening. But I will be trying to post at least once a week. I think that I will start posting every Saturday!!. So also if you have any request on any videos or blogs that you would like to see please let me know. I hope that everyone is doing great.

So ever since I have started wearing make-up. I would have a set of brushes that I would use for a couple of months and then throw them out and just purchase another brush set. I mean I wouldn’t buy the most expensive brushes but they were always pretty decent.

So I started watching some girls on YouTube and they would always wash their make-up brushes and so I was in Walmart and so I found this make -up brush cleaner set so I purchased it and it was about $7 or so. So I took it home an tried it and my mind was blown.

I knew that you could wash your make-up brushes but I just never did I just would always buy new ones… Now that I have four kids its like…. wait a minute wherever and whenever I can save money I will do it.

I hope that you enjoy my tutorial on how I clean my make-up brushes. Thank you for reading and watching 🙂 Until next time.

DIY 30% Glycolic Peel

Leave a comment

Hello angels I have always had issues with my skin, from when I was a teenager. From Acne to oily skin to combination to scars. I would always use face was that had acne medicine, and I feel like that was too harsh on my skin. But I feel like the more harsh the better.

Now that I am an adult I still have yet to find the right Face wash routine, but i have found that by doing a Glycolic peel at least once a week has really improved the texture of my skin as well as cleared some of the acne up.

So I hope that you enjoy the video, and thank you for taking the time to read and watch. Also If you have a recommended Face Wash routine that you think that would work for my skin type.. please do let me know . Until next time.

Quick Dip Acrylic Powder Starter Kit

Leave a comment

Hello Angels today I am going to be sharing a tutorial on how I use this kit that I purchased from Sally’s. I have been wanting to try this kit out for a while.

So the very frst time that I got my nails powder dipped, was about a year ago and I had no idea what it was or what it would be like. So all they literally did was put a polish on my nails and dip my nail in a powder form and then polish again. So after the experience i was like omg, yes i love how easy it was. So when i walked to the front to pay they said $58 and if i wanted to leave a cash tip that would be great. Ummm I was like what!!! and that was just the dip manicure. No pedi, no hand wax, nothing.. I paid and tipped but I was like man I got bamboozled.

So literally about four days later I was typing and bam!! My nail chipped… just like that. I said some pretty bad things… but who wouldn’t when you pay like $60 in just a mani… I was so upset and mind you getting my nails done is something that I never do, unless I do them my self.. So that moment on I decided that I was never going to get them done again.

So when I stumbled across this DIY Acrylic Powder Dip Kit. I seriously ran out that day and picked it up. It was only like $28. So when I got home I seriously did them in less that 20 min. It came with two colors so you probably can get like 10 uses or more out of it.

I hope that you enjoy the Tutorial. Thank you so much for watching. Until next time angels.

How I Box Dye My Hair!!

Leave a comment

Soooo, I know that A lot of people cring when people talk about Hair Box Dyes. I know, but me boing boshi and cheap and know that my butt can’t afford or have the time to go sit at a salon for hours.. like who does that.. Well  i’m sure plenty of people do.. oh well one can just dream.. anyway back to the subject at hand. So Being a mom of four. Its just eaisier for me to pick up a hair box dye for under $15 and be done. The Hair Dye that I use is the Loreal Downtown Denim

Well I normally get a dark color just because I feel like it brightens my complexion. I’t honestly might not even do that at all, I just play in my mind that It does. lol The struggle is real.. #momlife

So the process is not hard at all. There are literally like three steps. Put gloves on, mix the activator and the smoothing oil into the dye and then, put on hair and wait 40 min. An thats pretty much it.. Well unless your like me and get the dye all over your forhead, ares and neck.. Then you will need a bottle of alcohol to remove all the dye.

I hope that you enjoy the video, and until next time,

XOXO, Gg

 

Eye Brow Tattoo Pen

Hello angels, I am so sorry that I have been MIA. Between the Holiday and Birthday parties on top of being sick.. Life has been crazy. So I hope that everyone had an amazing Easter. What do you guys do? For us we stay at home and have family come over and the little ones goes easter egg hunting. I make some food and we just hang out with family and go swimming in the pool.

Literally the day before we had my sons birthday Party (Fortnite) and had over 40 people in our home. But it turned out great. Good food, great laughs.  He had a good time, thats all that mattered.

So This product that I have looked into has got me all excited.. I love trying new beauty products especially if they will make my life easier. Especially being a mom of four plus two fur babies. So this is obviously one of my go to products now. Especially if I don’t have time to use a eyebrow pencil and fill them in or I am just me and in a rush! I use this. It last for almost a week that I have noticed.

This product is not expensive at all either. Well I hope that you enjoy the video and review. Until next time my angels.

XOXO, gg

 

4D Silk Fiber Mascara

1 Comment

Hello Angels, I hope that everyone is having a great week so far. So I have been debating for such a long time about a product that I had mixed feelings about… So one night after coouple of glasses of wine I was browsing on Amazon!! Yes I know… probably not the best thing to do while sipping on some grapes!! lol.

So I went ahead an purchased the infamous
4D Silk Fiber Mascara So it came in a few days after that and so I wanted to go ahead and share with you guys my personal review. So in this blog/vlog I have two videos to share.

The first one is the first time that I used the product and the second video is a updated version with a better technique that helped with the clumpiness and not so spidery effect, which if you like then you would probably like, but if you like more a natural and whispy look then the second video would be for you.

So all that being said I hope that you enjoy the video. Let me know what you think. I would love to hear your feed back. Until next time beauty babes!!

XO,

Get Ready With Me Makeup Routine

Leave a comment

Sometimes being a mom especially a mom of four kids and two fur babies its hard to get ready, and it’s not as if you have all the time in the world to do so. So most of the time this is how I get ready now days.

Between all the stress of having to get them off to school starting at 6:15am to getting errands done through out the day. While having to pick one of them up from school at 11am. Then head home to unload all the groceries while trying to calm the two that are crying saying that they are STARVING, as if I never feed them. Then having to have dinner ready before 6pm. Which normally NEVER happens.

So yeah this is pretty much my morning makeup routine before I start my day well on the days that I have time to do this which is probably three days out of the week. lol. I hope that you check out the video. Thank you all for all the support. I am NO writer OR makeup artist in ANY way. so I hope that you enjoy from a simple mom.

Till we meet again,

XO GG
