I love all natural makeup look. Its works perfect for everyday runaround as well as for work, and the first product that I absolutely love to use is Laura Mercier hydration foundation primer. Its perfect for summer makeup as it hydrates but as well contains SPF 30. Its the most wonderful base for minimal glowy looks. NO foundation is the number one rule for eny no make up make up looks. I love to use by terry cc serum OR a skin tint. Lancome Skin feels good is one of my favorites for this look as it dosnt provide a lot of coverage but instead evens out your natural skin color so natural elements like freckles and little cute imperfections are visible. In no make up make up look you do want to look fresh and as if you woke up looking like that. Good tip that I learned from LustreLux is to use hydrating eye cream as a primer for eye shadows. This protects your eye skin and keeps it moisturized all day long. In this look I'm are not using any eye shadows but I still love to do this to keep all your skin looking moisturized and naturally glowy glowy. For my eyebrows I always used elf eyebrow kit. I tried many other products and this is still my favorite kit. The gel part stays in my eyebrow all day no mater what I do so I don't even do touch ups. No eye shadow but a highlighter. For the natural look I love to go for Topaz by Glossier. Its warmer toned and I love how brown tones look on my green grey eyes. This little trick looks really natural and hydrates the lids, adds brightness, as well it melts on to your eyelid easier since you prepped it with eye cream. Now for thee strong imperfections that we all have and would love to hide. NARS concealer is still the best to do the job of spot concealing. I completely forgot about it until about 3 month ago, and now I'm obsessed. Use it lightly to cover any any imperfections but remember that a little goes a long way. A dot here and there should be enough. But that's not it. We as well will use it to lighten up a couple areas on our face creating dimension. Just the usual triangles under the eyes and a line down the nose. Be sure to use a brush or a damp beauty blender to really work the product in to your skin Another one of my favorites. I love art and drawing so contouring is my favorite. In natural makeup looks you don't want to give your face sharp lines but more of a sun kissed look. I feel like that's a perfect job for a liquid bronzer. With the base of the beauty blender deb some on your forehead framing your hairline, as well as to outline the cheekbones. Luster liquid blush is a perfect shade for me, it really matches my golden completion with its peachy tones. Although its highly pigmented it looks really natural and light in this look. Once again this is a product where a little goes a long way. Do not apply directly to your cheeks, but blend it on the back of your hand first to warm it up in order to have just the right amount on your blush or beauty blender , what ever you prefer. If you are of a whiter completion I would recommend using the shade orgasm in NARS. The intense pink color of the shade, in my opinion, shows up brighter and more natural on whiter, colder skin tones. Where peachy and golds show up brighter on warmer skin tones. Saying all that feel free to use what ever you want. By this time it should be easy to find where your natural highlight goes do to all the hydrating products that we already used. The "C " shape on the temples framing over the eyebrow, on to the top of the cheek and of course some on the cupids bow. We are done with preparing our skin. Next step is to melt all the tints, and creams and highlighters together by using just a couple spray of rose water. It sets all your make up making it flawless and natural looking. This is my favorite facial spray to use when I'm using tints or CC serums. Don't forget to spray this before mascara and lipstick. Mascara is always a must. I feel like I have no eyes if I don't apply mascara in the morning. This mascara is so different from everything I ever tried before. IT truly dose whats promised. It has a new technology that allows you to chose the style of the brush. You can twist it and shrink it for volume or you could leave it strait and use it this way for length. I love to do a little of each. I don't think ill ever go to another mascara, but who knows. Last step are the lips. NYX matte lip tint look natural, evens out my natural lip color and is long living on my lips. I love using this color as its super close to my natural lips color, yet it looks neat and put together.
This is how I love to achieve my no makeup make up look in the summer. Its glowy, bright and natural with just a few products. Hope you love this look!!

STEP ONE I always start with freshly washed and air dry hair. I try not to double up on heat as it does damage your hair. I usually wash it the night before and let it dry over night. STEP TWO First thing I do after I brush my hair is making sure that I spray it thoroughly with heat protective spray. I go layer by layer all though my hair to make sure everything is covered. I like to go through with a brush once again before starting my curling proses to make sure that I really get the product all over the length of my hair. Sometimes if it’s a bit damp I’ll walk around my apartment, edit a blog, make a snack and continue on my hair once its fully dry. STEP THREE Here we go finally getting to the important part ... the technique. I set my wand to a 360 degrees F and while it’s warming up I start of by separating my hair NOT by levels but on two halves: left and right sides of my head. I like to curl my hair starting from the back pieces of my head moving towards my face. STEP FOUR Curling style that I like to use is a style I learned a long time ago from my hair dresser. It adds a lot of volume and texture to your hair, allowing you to move it and play with it all throughout the day. I pick up a piece of hair and clip it in to my wand at the root of my hair, and slowly pull down to about 3 inched. Next I roll up the wand away from the face. Hold it for 2- 5 seconds and without unclipping or unroll the wand with circular wrist movements creating a hair twist. Pull wand down another three inches and roll it up those three inches. Hold for another 3-5 seconds and untwist it with a wrist movement creating a twist the same direction. Do so though out the length of your hair. You should have a long thread of hair twisted away from your face. Repeat this proses with all the rest of your hair moving from back of one side to the front and then work on the other side. Alternating by twisting one string of hair towards the face and the other away from the face. Once working on the front strips of hair make them twist away from the face. That’s considered to be the most flattering way. STEP FIVE Do NOT untwist your hair. I know you probably look ridicules right now, trust me I been there. I call it “the medusa” stage of hair curling. I spray it with hairspray and allow my hair to chill. I get dressed, do my makeup, making sure that I give a at least a good 10 minutes for my hair to chill. After I’m all ready to go I flip my hair over and tuck my finger to the roots of the hair and pull them gently all through my hair braking the curls. I absolutely love this way of curling my hair it adds so much character and the curls look natural and not forced. Once I untwist all my hair I like to play around and style it just the right way and give it a final hair spray to settle my hair in place. I love this way as it holds in my hair forever, for sure 2, 3 days without any touch ups. And with every day it looks better and better. I would love to see you try this style so please tag my on your Instagram looks with a hashtag #beautybloom or send me an inbox.
Recently I have fell in love with a bold red lip all over agin. For the past half a year or so I was really in to nudes and pastel pinks and purples but something about spring being right around the corner has pushed me to explore my lipstick drawer and thats when I found my long lost love to Reds. I’m a big lover of all monochromatic black look and nothing adds as much class and elegance to black outfit as a bold red lip. It immediately busts my confidence how i cary myself .There is something so empowering about a strong bold red lipstick on a women. Red lips are really sensual yet so classy and alluring. And thats a look that most women would love to have. Above are the 6 colors of red that are all absolutely amazing but different each in its own. Some are more bold like the HOT deep red Hourglass lipstick, and some are really classy and intense like both of the Chanel Lipstick. One is a dusted rose color and the other is so vibrant yet elegant and empowering classy look of a red lip.
When I was small my favorite thing was to go to a spa with all my family and our friends. My two best friends and I would always run to the sauna and select a citrus aroma. I remember the smell being so natural I can almost taste it in my mouth. That was real happiness. Every time I think of those days my heart fills with joy and love. These memories are probably the most vivid in my mind. Especially the citrus scent that was stuck to my skin for the next few days. Ever since I found this body oil by Bath and Body Works I religiously use it after every shower. It constantly reminds me of those happy weekends at spa with everyone I loved and brings me to my happy place. I wanted to share this product with you to maybe challenge you to take a step out of your comfort zone and show you something different. I love high end products but also love to keep my options open. I wouldn't want to eliminate a product just for its seemingly low price and miss out on a something that I could fall in love with. Memorabilia scent to me is what keeps my heart warm and my mood happy. This oil consists of citrus sent and a
bergamot lower note. In it's consistency it almost reminds me of a dry oil. It absorbs in my skin with in seconds and I'm ready to go. I can't wait for our first Texas summer here in Fort Worth. This oil will be my best friend by the pool. Nourishing my skin and warming up my soul.
