DIY Crayola Lipstick

Hi everyone,
     So this summer, I started wearing lipstick more often. I don't wear a lot of makeup, because my skin is really sensitive (pain in the butt). Anyway, I found a really cool DIY lipstick formula that doesn't irritate my skin, and it's SUPER EASY. You might have heard of it, because it's the one with the crayons and coconut oil.

     This is the video tutorial I liked the best. I liked this one, because her colors looked so pigmented. It still definitely involves experimenting with the portions, but that's the fun part. I couldn't get many of my ones to be as vibrant. Filling in your lips with lip liner first, and then putting the color over would make it stand out more.
    This recipe started my love affair with coconut oil. The coconut oil makes your lips super smooth and healthy. On Pinterest, there are a ton more things you can do with it, like make hair treatments or lip scrubs.

Here's one I made that came out very pigmented without any liner.
Sorry the picture is dark.

Let me know if you've done this before and how yours came out!

All the Young Punks

Hi friends,

     I'm trying out some things I hardly ever wear. Also, I'm trying out a new spot for my photos, in front of my closet. Don't worry, the basket is full of gym clothes, not dirty clothes. :P What do you think?

     P.S.) Happy 100th post!! 

DIY Halloween: Costumes

Happy almost Halloween!!

     My roommates and I are going to host a Halloween party, so I thought I'd make a few Halloween posts. It's definitely my favorite holiday, and this is the first time I've ever had my own Halloween party. Since we're in college, we have no money so we've been scavenging our families' basements, dollar stores, and anywhere else we can find cheap Halloween-themed things. Luckily, one of my roommate's aunt owns a Halloween company and the other has a bunch of Halloween decorations, because of all her Halloween birthday parties. I'm so excited!!!

     Every year my roommate brings a large bin of female costumes for us to choose from. This year, I'm skipping the bin and going to try to make my own. My girlfriend and I are planning on being 50s greasers (pictures to come). In the mean time, keep reading for some cool DIY costume ideas I found!

Pretty Pinterest DIYs

Hi friends,
     Pinterest is one of the best weapons I have against boredom. Here are some cool jewelry and accessory "Do It Yourself" projects I found.

1. Perfect Summer Hair Pin
    There wasn't a link for it, but it's pretty self-explanatory.

2. Cute Vintage Button Necklace
    What a great way to add vintage flare to any outfit!

3. Cool Wrap Bracelet

    I like to think of it as an updated take on friendship bracelets

I have never made one myself, but my friend gave me one I wear all the time.
