Half Moon Spring Nails!

Recently a new nail trend has been going around that I wasn't really sure how to go about. I saw a few "Half Moon" tutorials on YouTube and was always interested in it but never gave it a try! With a few striper polishes my aunt gave me for my birthday, there came some rounded tip guides that I figured would help me get the Half Moon look down! So since it was SO gorgeous out as far as weather goes this week, and it was also the first day of spring, I decided to use some fun bright colors! I started by painting all my nails "Lemon Fizz" by China Glaze, then I let it dry really good! Once it wasn't tacky anymore, I put one of the rounded tip guids at the base of my nail, where I thought it would show enough yellow. Once that was in place, I painted the rest of my nail with "JulieG" by Jessie's Girl Cosmetics (named after the amazing JulieG713 on YouTube!). I let it dry for a few minutes before removing the stickers and when they were done  I had my own Half Moon nails! Some came out a little lopsided, because I didn't apply the sticker perfectly, but hey, for my first time I'm pretty happy with them! Have you tried Half Moon nails? If you have, what's your tricks for getting it perfect and if you haven't are you looking forward to trying it out?!

Special Occasion?

Hey guys! So Friday I have a semi-formal dance. I plan on filming an OOTN for my beauty channel if I have enough time! If you follow my Instagram (xojovixo319), you've probably already seen my little sneak peaks. But I still want to do a cool video for the people that don't follow it! Just wanted to do an update because I feel like I've been lacking on here! Stay tuned for my OOTN and I hope you guys are doing well! <3

Foundation Love!

The picture above is just one I pulled from Google so you could see what the product looks like. This is not the one I own.

So recently I've tried out a new foundation that I've really been liking! I picked up the Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse, because I thought it might help me out with the oil control on my face. I was really skeptical to pick up a mousse foundation because I've never tried one and I thought it might look a bit cakey. However this stuff goes on so smooth and looks so flawless! My color is Medium 4 Honey Beige and I've been wearing it every single day! Some people have mentioned to me that it was discontinued, however I was able to find it in both CVS and Walmart. I know the Dream Mousse products can be somewhat hard to find, but if you have oily skin and can get your hands on this, I really would reccommend you should! I recently filmed a Review and Demo video for YouTube with this product that I can hopefully get up sometime this week. But for now I just wanted to type up a quick post on it since I haven't updated on here in a while! Hope you guys are doing well and stay tuned for the Review and Demo video!
