D.I.Y. Soothing Cleanser

     Heyo!
     Spring is here and the sun is coming out and your skin is in need of some TLC. I created this cleanser to help soothe your skin and help it moisturized throughout the long day. Most of my skincare is all about soothing so I hope that this helps you. Here what you'll need.

Tools:
Blender
Empty Container (no pumps because the cleanser can get stuck in the pipes)

Ingredients:
Oatmeal
Chamomile Tea Leaves
Runny Honey
Sunflower Oil ( or Olive Oil)

Directions:
Pour about two or three cups of oatmeal into the blender. Pour in 1/2 a cup of honey in. Add two tea bags of any soothing type of tea, I like to use chamomile. Pour in 1/4 a cup of oil. Blend all ingredients with the blender and pour into an empty container.

Here's how its good for you:

Oatmeal- Oatmeal helps to reduce the dryness of your skin and restore your skins natural balance. It also absorbs and removes impurities from your skin by gently exfoliating. It helps to create smoother and softer looking and feeling skin. It also helps to soothe irritated skin.

Chamomile- It helps skin that has burns, rashes, boils and etc. It also helps people with Eczema as well. it helps to soothe and soften your skin also helping to reduce that horrid burning sensation. It also has antibacterial properties that help to purify the skin helping to lighten your complexion.

Honey- Moisturizes your skin so its perfect for dry skin, protects against damage so its great for helping with sun care as well. It has anti inflammatory agents that helps prevent infections and curing the ones that are already on your skin such as acne and blemishes.

Sunflower Oil- sunflower oil provides the skin with a protective coating to block out infection and inflammation, including already existing irritations. It helps to treat acne as well and helps the skin retain moisture.

     There it is everyone! I love this cleanser because not only does it soothe but it helps fight off acne and UV/U VB  rays. I hope that it works as good for you as it does for me. Enjoy!

Spring Makeup Tutorial

Hey Spring Breaker's!
    I went shopping today and I got this shirt that inspired me to do a spring tutorial for roses. Without further explanation  here it is!

EYES:

Step 1.

 First things first, take a white eye pencil and apply all over your eyelid. This is going to be a great base for your eye makeup to stick on and gives this look a nice subtle glow. I used the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Cottage Cheese.

Step 2:

 Next take a pink/peach cream color and apply this on your eye lid up to your crease. make sure though that you don't go any farther than to your crease other wise this won't look to good. Here I used the Nars Multi- Wear in Orgasm ( strange name, I know).

Step 3:

Taking a Chocolate brown eye shadow shade, apply this on the outer fourth of your eye and into your crease. This is going to help add depth to your eyes, and define them in a nice subtle way. I'm using the Almay Intense Satin- I Trio brown shade.

Step 4:

Take a creamy white color and apply this to your brow bone and blend in the crease color as well. This is going to bring your eyes out and blend the colors in better together. I used the Almay palette from the previous step and used the cream color this time.

 Step 5:

Apply a white eyeliner onto you lower lash line and waterline. this is going to open up the eyes and make you look more awake. I used the NYC Kohl Eye Pencil in White.

Step 6:

Take a liquid eyeliner and apply it in a very thin line on your upper lash line. I used the ELF Liquid Eyeliner in Black.

Step 7:

Curl your eyelashes, then apply a curling mascara to your upper and lower lash line. this will make your eyes bigger. If you apply with a juggling motion while combing through your lashes, it will give a more natural look. I used the Nature Republic So Big Curling Mascara.

CHEEKS:

Step 1:

Take a rosy pink blush and tap onto cheeks with a powder brush. I'm using the Clinique Blushing Blush in Iced Lotus.

Step 2:

Apply a Highlighter to the High Points of your face. I'm using the Nars Hungry Heart Duo and I used the ivory shade.

Lips:

Take a red tinted lip balm and apply to your lips. I'm using the Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm in Cherry Me.

Finished Look:

     So I hope that you enjoyed this tutorial and that you try it out yourself. Have fun!
