Hey y'all so homecoming is around the corner and everyone is dress shopping but this year instead of buying a new dress I'm wearing my dress from last year! only i'm putting my own twist on it! It's chocolate brown, a-line, strapless and so cute! lol So I wore it last year with a baby pink silk ribbon around the wait so this year i'm going to put leapard print fabric on the bust part then put a pink silk ribbon and wrap it around 3 or 4 times where the leopard ends. I;m going to wear it with gold heels that I love!
So don't be afraid to buy a plain dress and spice it up tp make it your own!

Halloweeenn!!! =)
Hey y'all1 so Halloween is coming up in about a month! I'm sooo excited! it's one of my most favorite holidays of the year! so at my school during homecoming week we sometimes have a costume day and my 2 friends and I are gonna dress up as something so one of my friends wants us to be cowgirls but idk lol but I want us to be dolls. So for Halloween i'm gonna dress up as a doll and the make up look!
Hey! so for the eyes I'm using my N.Y.C. Color Wheel blush that has patches of diffrent shades of blush and I'm using the darkest pink on the lids with the lightest on the brow bones. Then, I use false lashes to give that doll look and i use Sexy Curves waterproof mascara by Revlon and do a couple coats then once that dries I use CoverGirl Lash Blast on top. then I take that same blush pallette and using an eyeshadow brush take the same darkest blush and put it in a circle on the apples of my cheeks. Then for the lips, I nude out my lips with MAC's studio sculpt concealer and wipe off the concealer in the shape of really small lips like Lady Gaga wore in her Paparazzi video then put SUPER pink lipstick and fill it in. Now, if you want to, you can take black eyeliner and draw 2 lines going down from each side of the small lips then a line connecting the 2 verticle lines then smudge on both sides of the black line to make it fade out and give you that ventriliquist (spelling? lol) doll look. for hair im going to curl my hair and put it to the side and put a pink bow in it. Not to sure about the outfit yet.
Have an idea for my outfit? Tell me your look for Halloween at Flashnglam247@yahoo.com =)

188 Short Duo Fibre Face Brush $34.00 from MAC |
Hey y'all so I just wanted to talk about make-up brushes today. Having high-quality make-up brushes are a MUST. I just started using MAC and I bought the 188 Short Duo Fiber Face Brush for $34.00. I use it with my Studio Fix Fluid Foundation every morning and I love it you just have to make sure you clean it EVERDAY after you use it! I wish I would've liked the larger version of this brush but didn't realize there was a larger version. This brush does do a good job of applying foundation with medium to full coverage but it does streak because when it gets wet from the foundation, the ends of the bristles clump together so it strreaks some, just make sure you pat your skin with your fingertips where the steraks are to blend them out. Also, I can't stress how important it is to use MAC's Brush Cleanser. Don't use baby shampoo or your shampoo or a mixture you find on the internet! I used a mixture i found on youtube and it made my brush get fly aways because it dried out the natural hairs of the brush making them curl! So use MAC's brush cleanser because it is made to clean the brushes and take care of them and nourish the natural hairs of the brush. Also, I noticed, WHen I used the "mixture" it didn't get all of the foundation off of the brush but when I used the cleanser it got ALL of the foundation and color off of the white brush end!
So experiment with brushes that you like and products!
What's your favorite brush or make up product? comment below or email at Flashnglam247@yahoo.com!
