Beauty Things I Suck At Tag!

Hello everyone! Today I am going to do the Beauty Things I Suck At Tag! I have been extremely busy lately so I haven't really been able to prepare any looks for tutorials. But after next week I should be back on a regular schedule of posting. I have watched so many YouTube Beauty Gurus do this tag and I  think it is so much fun. So here are the beauty things I suck at!

1. Natural Curly Hair

I naturally have very very curly hair. I am mixed (Italian and Black). I straighten my hair every week because whenever I want to wear my hair curly naturally it just doesn't happen. I have pretty curls when it is wet but that is a different story once it drys! Not cute! I just can't seem to figure out how these girls get their curls to stay so pretty and bouncy all day. I need to go on a hunt for hair product that will work in my hair. That's also something I have an issue with.

2. False Lashes

It just doesn't happen. I recently wanted to get into wearing lashes so I purchased so e.l.f. lashes since I don't know what I am doing and didn't want to spend a lot on them if it wasn't going to work. I did purchase the Ardell lash glue because I have heard the glue that comes with the e.l.f. lashes is no good. No matter what I do I can't seem to get the lashes to stick! Pretty sure they just hate me. I have even watched tutorials on how to apply them and I still can't seem to do it. I guess I will have to keep practicing!

3. Winged Eyeliner

I can do winged eyeliner great....on one eye. If I get one eye "perfect" the second eye always looks terrible. It never fails. That or the wings are COMPLETELY different! Therefore I just hardly ever do winged eyeliner even though I really love the look of it!

4. Concealing my Under Eye Circles

This could have to do with the fact that I am absolutely TERRIBLE at choosing concealer. I have tried like 5 different ones and they were useless on my under eye circles and a few just made them look gray and cakey. 

5. Picking Foundation Shade

I HATE shopping for foundation, mainly because I can't pick the right shade to save my life. I find that in brands that don't have a huge selection of color I always seem to be a tad too dark to the darkest light shade and too light to the lightest tan shade. Makes no sense! I have been suggested to try the loreal true match because of the shade selection so I think that I am going to give that a try. I am just not good at judging what my shade is. I went to Sephora to get foundation and the girl was trying to match shades to my face and she was also having a hard time. "Your not completely yellow but your not completely olive either" is what she said to me.

Those are some of the beauty things I suck at!

Would You Rather Tag: Makeup Edition Take 2!

I was tagged by Notorious Beauty Blog ! I did this tag last august but I am going to do it again! Make sure to check out Notorious Beauty Blog she has became one of my favorite beauty blogs! She has great posts, so head on over and check her out! 

Now for the tag! Let's get started!

1) Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lipglosses or lose all of your palettes and eyeshadows? 

-I would have to say lose all of my palettes and eyeshadows. At least I can still have a decent face with just mascara, eyeliner, lipsticks and lipglosses lol

2) Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?

- I would rather never be  able to cut it again. I used to have long hair and then I went on a hair cutting spree when I was in high-school. Now I can't get my hair to grow past my shoulder!

3) Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?

-Definitely a coral cheek. Coral blush looks better with my skin tone, a lot of pinks are not that flattering on me.

4) If you had $1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or makeup?

- I would have to say this is a tough one! I think I am going to say makeup! There are a lot of high end brands that I would love to try but I cannot justify spending that much money for makeup products! Which is why my makeup collection is only drug store (minus my sephora foundation). 

5) Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner, or eyeliner as lipstick?

- I would rather apply eyeliner as a lipstick! I just couldn't imagine applying lipstick as an eyeliner, that would be difficult and would most likely look terrible!

6) Would you rather only shop at MAC or Sephora?

-Definitely Sephora! I have never tried any MAC products but at least if I could only shop at Sephora I would still have access to many brands unlike at MAC

7) Would you rather only use one eyeshadow color or one lip color for the rest of your life?

- One lip color! I really love to do lots of different eye looks which require way more than one eyeshadow! I could just use a nude lip color as my one color, that way it would match with everything!

8) Would you rather wear winter clothes in summer or summer clothes in winter?

-  This is a tough one because in either situation it's not a fun time! I guess I would chose my winter clothes in the summer since that's only jeans and a hoodie. I couldn't imagine wearing shorts and a tank in the middle of winter! Hello frost bite and hypothermia ! Lol.

9) Would you rather have dark nails or bright nails all year round?

-Bright nails! They are just so much fun!

10) Would you rather give up your favorite lip product or your favorite eye product?

-My favorite lip product. I only recently got into lip products so it wouldn't brother me as much to give up my favorite lip product. 

11) Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a ponytail or a messy bun?

-Messy bun! They are super cute, plus I don't like the way I look in a ponytail. It does not suite my face. 

12) Would your rather never be able to paint your nails again or never use lipgloss?

-Never use lipgloss again, I have way too may bottles of nail polish! Plus I really love painting my nails. I am not allowed to have nail polish on my nails for work and it is killing me ! So I know never being able to paint my nails again is not an option!

13) Would you rather shave your eyebrows and have none at all or sharpie them in everyday?

- As much as I would suck at it, I would rather sharpie them in everyday. I couldn't imagine walking around with no eyebrows!

14) Would you rather live without makeup or nail polish? 

- As much as I love my nail polish I would give it up for my makeup! I couldn't imagine not having any makeup! 

I tag all of you guys!!

Colors of the Rainbow Tag!

It's been awhile since I've done a tag! I thought this one would be fun to do. It's called the Colors of the Rainbow tag. You go through the colors of the rainbow (ROY G BIV and pink and multicolored are like the bonus colors) and you chose a product that you like or is your favorite that's that color! Easy enough? That's what I thought until I had to chose products! Some of the colors I actually had a hard time with!

So let's get started!

RED

For red I chose my Betsy Johnson heels! I absolutely LOVE these heels! I got them on clearance at JC Penny for around $36 ! On the heel there is a bow and corset detailing. My favorite part of these shoes is that under them it is bright blue with a leopard type design! So pretty, I don't wear them often (since I don't really have anywhere to go in them) but I did wear them on New Years Eve and got lots of compliments! They are about 5 inches in height with a small platform. 

ORANGE

For orange I chose my Clean & Clear Morning Burst Facial Cleanser. This is a great face wash! I use it every morning. I love the smell and it really does wake you up! The bursting beads fell really good on the face in the morning. 

YELLOW

For yellow I chose these flats! The camera does not pick up the color very well but they are actually gold, lol. I couldn't find anything yellow so I cheated and picked something gold. Oops. I got these flats from Goodwill for $8! There is like sequence all over them but it doesn't fall off and get everywhere like you would think it would. I thought these were a fun shoe. 

GREEN

For green I chose my Julie G nail polish in Gelato in Venice. It is a beautiful mint nail polish. Is mint considered green? Well it is now! This color is perfect for spring and summer!

BLUE

For blue I chose my Beyonce perfume in Pulse. I normally do not purchased celebrity perfumes cause I find that they don't really smell that great but I really like this one. It is not fruity (I am not a fan of fruity scents) and it's also not that typical celebrity perfume smell. Beyonce did good when she came out with this one!

INDIGO 

I just could not find anything for indigo :(

VIOLET/PURPLE

Of course I chose my Wet N Wild Megalength mascara! This is my holy grail mascara! It gives great length to my lashes and doesn't clump! I wish they would make a waterproof version!

PINK

I thought this was the perfect product for the color pink! Maybelline Vivids lipstick in Pink Pop! This lipstick is so vibrant and it lasts all day long!

MULTICOLORED

For multicolored I chose my Sephora palette! It's got great colors! From neutrals to bright colors. They are very pigmented and are easy to blend and work with. I especially like the yellow and blues in this palette. 

This tag was actually a little harder than I thought. I couldn't even find anything for indigo! So now it's your turn! 

I tag all my readers!

Now I am going to go make brunch!
