How To Apply Foundation For Beginners - Makeup 101

Applying Makeup For Beginners - Foundation

1. First you want to find your undertone 

Your undertone is the color underneath the surface of your skin. Your undertone will be either warm, cool, or neutral. The easiest way to find your skin's undertone is to look at the color of your veins in your wrists. If your veins are more blue, you have a cool undertone. If you have green veins, you have a warm undertone. If you have both green and blue veins like myself, then you have a neutral undertone.

You then want to find your shade of foundation or your surface tone. Find a shade that closet matches you, and test on your chest (you want to match your face to your chest). If the shade disappears into your skin, you have found your match.

2. Moisturize

Applying moisturizer before getting started is very important. You want to make sure your skin is well hydrated so your makeup has a smooth surface to adhere to. (Wait a few minutes before going on to the next step)

3. Primers

Primers aren't totally necessary but great if your have certain skin concerns. For example, if you have large pores you can buy a pore minimizing primer to help fill in those pores and minimize them. There are primers for everything. It's all about what your concerns are.

4. Applying Foundation

How to choose to apply your foundation is really up to you. There are a variety of tools you can use to do this.
-Your hands (the warmth of your hands will help melt the product in your skin)
-Cosmetic Sponge (wedges you can find at drugstores)
-Beauty Blender
-Foundation Brush
-Stippling brush

5. Setting Your Foundation

If you want your foundation to stay put, or help control the oil in your skin you will want to set your foundation with a powder.

Getting the House Ready For the Holiday's #GalSquad

Sunday, November 29, 2015


YES! My favorite time of the year is here. I absolutely love the holidays and the true joy and happiness it brings. 

In preparation for Thanksgiving and getting my house ready for family to come over, I decided to start decorating to get in the holiday spirit. I know some people think it's too early to decorate for Christmas prior to Thanksgiving, but why not? It brings positive vibes and um, my crazy family needs as much positivity around them as possible LOL. Anyway, I decided to decorate a few places around the house before I go all the way into Christmas mode this week.  

I started with a few simple touches in the bathroom, where.. let's be honest, everyone goes to at point or another while they are at your house. Candles - totally necessary for every bathroom in your house. This one in particular is the Illume Balsm and Cedar Luxury Scented Candle, which a balsamic and woody base, with notes of orange, berries, green leaf, fir needle, cinnamon and pine. I love deep woody scents like this especially during the holidays! Soap - I love this festive soap for decoration in my bathroom. It gives my very simplistic bathroom a little pop of color and it screams Christmas is coming. This soap is part of Primal Elements Holidays Collection in the scent Candy Cane. I've been tempted to just use it instead of using it for decoration. Primal Elements Soaps are handmade and contain vegetable glycerin, which moisturizes the skin and contains pure essential oils for an optimum fragrance. Both the Illume candle and Primal Elements soap can be found at any Red Door Spa Location.  Next we have a white flower arrangement which gives the bathroom a very clean look, which I found at the wonderful TJ MAXX. You can always find hidden gems in that store! For finishing touches, I found a monogram towel from Target that goes with the clean and simplistic look, yet has a bit of gold that goes with the holiday theme. 

Can't wait to finish decorating this week. I'll be sure to share with you all!

Can't think of what to get someone on your holiday shopping list? Well, I'm giving gift cards to #RedDoorSpa and think it's a fabulous gift for anyone! Get yours (plus bonus spa dollars) at http://bit.ly/1l6bJMr!



Brandied Pear and Marshmallow Body Melt - Red Door Spa Review #galsquad

Sunday, November 1, 2015


If you're looking to treat yourself to something sweet and relaxing, you'll want to pamper yourself to this treatment! Imagine your whole body being massaged with a gentle scrub that has a Brandied Pear aroma. Once rinsed off, you sink in a deep relaxation while your body is being massaged in a light creamy Marshmallow scented Shea Butter that leaves your skin super smooth! 

I was able to treat myself to this same treatment, courtesy of Red Door Spa Atlantic City, and I'm here to tell you my experience was amazing. The treatment starts with your body being exfoliated with a Brandied Pear scrub, which I must say smells like a delicious cocktail! The sea salt in the scrub helps remove the dead skin cells, while the scrub also contains Vitamin-E rice bran oil that leaves your skin polished to perfection. Once you're whole body has been exfoliated, it's time to rinse off in your own private shower included in your massage room. After you've dried off, your massage therapist returns to the room to deliver an amazing, yet relaxing massage using a rich a creamy Marshmallow Shea Butter.

Red Door Spa always amazing me with their above and beyond service. If you haven't already, treat yourself to this Brandied Pear and Marshmallow Body Melt.. you won't regret it. Find your closest Red Door Spa location HERE.

HOW TO START YOUR NIGHT TIME SKIN CARE ROUTINE

Thursday, October 15, 2015

Night Time Skin Care, How to start a skin care routine, layering skin care, best skin care products,

WATCH VIDEO HERE (YOUTUBE)

If you learn something new, give the video a thumbs up!

If you're interested in stepping up your skin care routine, but not sure where to start.. this video is for you! It's never too early or too late to start a skin care regimen. Skin care is important because our skin is the first thing people see when they look at us and it's the largest organ of our body. If you're not taking care of your skin, it can look dull but if you're taking care of your skin, it'll look vibrant, glowy, and healthy. 

Figuring out your night time routine isn't as hard as you think. First start with removing all the dirt and makeup from your skin with a good makeup remover. (all products I used are listed below) Next time to wash your face with a cleanser. Using a face brush is a great tool to help get the dirt out of your pores, but not totally necessary. Once a week, it's good to exfoliate your skin to remove the dead skin cells. For this, use a good enzyme exfoliator. Also once or twice a week, use a face mask to help detoxify your pores. You want to get all the dirt off your face so your skin can breath. Next, apply a toner. A toner is a step that a lot of people skip but it definetely necessary. A toner helps remover anything that your cleanser missed and if you left any cleanser on your face, a toner will help remove that as well. Next it's time to apply your eye cream. Find an eye cream that best fits your specific needs. For example, I have really dry under eyes.. so I applied an eye cream that's moisturizing. If you want to target dark circles, find an eye cream that targets this specific problem. Now for a serum. Again, you want to find a product that fits your specific needs. I want to focus on antiaging so I got a serum with vitamins to help with anti aging. Next, for a moisturizer. If you are oily, go for a lotion and if you're dry go for a cream. Lastly, go for a night cream or an oil to seal it all in.

I'm young and in my mid 20's and right now anti-aging is my main concern when it comes to skin care, I want to preserve my youthful skin for as long as I can. Personally, I've stopped using tanning beds, make sure I use SPF when going outdoors, and drinking more water as part as my skin care on top of using all of the following products:

OLAPLEX TREATMENT REVIEW

Friday, July 10, 2015



Scroll down for review on YouTube.

So excited to talk about the Olaplex treatment I received, courtesy of Red Door Spa Atlantic City. I didn't know anything about Olaplex until I received the treatment. What I found out about it is that it's actually like insurance for your hair. It makes your hair smooth and shinny. In fact, it reconnects the broken disulfide sulfur bonds in your hair, which are typically broken during thermal and chemical services (coloring and hot irons).


The Process:
The process itself is simple and only two parts. The first treatment is applied to your hair and left in for ten minutes and then rinsed out. Next, the second treatment applied, left in for ten minutes, rinsed, then it's time to shampoo and condition. It's really that simple ;)
 

The Results:
I would say my hair is a little more on the dry side because of all the heat I apply to it, but after this treatment.. I couldn't believe how smooth and silky my hair was. The best part is how healthy it actually looks. I don't think there's ever been a time my hair has looked THIS healthy. I'm very pleased with my hair and very excited to have been able to try this treatment. I recommend Olaplex to anyone that wants to add life back to their hair, you'll be just as pleased as I was with the results.  

Until next time..

Love,
Christina

GO-TO NIGHT OUT LOOK USING NAKED PALETTE

Wednesday, July 8, 2015

I have a look that I always go-to when I'm in a rush, not sure what I'm wearing, or not feeling creative. Not only do I wear this look at night, I also wear it during the day. For a day time look, I typically do this same eyeshadow but simplify it by just going with mascara instead of lashes. I also ditch the eyeliner and go for a nude lip. What's great is that it's easy, anyone can do it, and you only need one eyeshadow palette. My go-to neutral palette is the original Naked palette from Urban Decay. It was the very first high-end palette ($54)  I ever bought and I still use it after 3 years.

For a night out, I love to switch up the lip color and typically go for a bold lip. Here I went with MAC's stone but I love a deep red for dinner like MAC's Viva Glam 1, or a deep purple like MAC's Diva. It all depends on my mood and that's my favorite part about it. I feel my most confident going with the deepest colors, but that's just me. Go for whatever your heart desires my loves.

Until next time..
Love,
Christina

Watermelon Basiltini Pedicure - Red Door Spa #galsquad

Sunday, June 14, 2015


#GALSQUAD
So happy to announce that I'm the ambassador for Red Door Spa Atlantic City, located in Harrah's Resort. I'll be reviewing products and services from Red Door Spa over the next few months. On this day, I was able to enjoy something a little different, a Watermelon Basiltini Pedicure. 

I've been to many spas and I don't think I've been to one as big as this one. This Red Door Spa location features 23 Spa Treatment rooms, a sauna, and a jacuzzi you can enjoy while sitting next to the warm fireplace. Also, enjoy your manicure and pedicures while watching your favorite shows on flat screen tv's. This location also features a couple suite in which you can enjoy an 80 minute couples massage with your partner.


My first service was a relaxing Watermelon Basiltini Pedicure. Absolutely perfect for the summer because your feet are exfoliated with a watermelon-basil sugar scrub and then your feet are hydrated and massaged with buttercream scented shea and cocoa butter. We don't want dry cracked feet right? Finished off with a paraffin treatment, which if you never tried you must! A paraffin treatment is where your feet are placed in a plastic bag with warm wax that helps seal the moisture in your feet. Your feet are then wrapped in warm towels for about 20 minutes. It's VERY relaxing and it was well needed for as much as I'm on my feet! 

While I enjoyed my pedicure, I sipped on a Watermelon Basiltini infused water and it was by far the most amazing water I've ever had in my life. Red Door really knows how to amaze their guests with even the most simplest details.


I'm a sucker for orange colored polish so I went with Sundae Fundae by Essie. It's a great summer shade! Here in Jersey, we are more than ready for summer after the winter we've had so this pedicure was the perfect way to start it! Thank you Jennifer and Red Door Spa for the amazing pedicure and experience. 





Gerard Cosmetics is a well known brand here on YouTube that is talked very highly of by the most well known YouTubers such as Carli Bybel, Jaclyn Hill, Nicole Guerriero, Rositaapplebum, Whatwouldlizzydo, and many others. The question is... Is this product worth what they make it to be? Are they being honest or is money an influence?

This is MY honest opinion. You know, Freedom of Speech. Some may agree, others may disagree.

REVAMP VANITY TOUR/MAKEUP COLLECTION 2015

Saturday, May 16, 2015



ALL INFO ABOUT VANITY AND WHERE EVERYTHING IS FROM IS LOCATED ON MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL. CLICK HERE

Perfume Setup, How to organize perfumes 
 You don't need an expensive perfume tray. I found this tray at Dollar Tree which is actually a cookie tray!


I love this brush organizer because I can organize my brushes by type (foundation, blush, blending, shader brushes, etc.) It spins so I can easily find my brushes with no hassle. It's actually a desk organizer that I found at TJ Maxx.


Lipstick and Lip Liner organizers can be found on Amazon.

How to organize your makeup drawers

Ikea Alex Drawers are really the best way to organize your makeup. You can use small drawer organizers (Dollar Tree) and customize to your needs and liking. I have my drawers organized by face primers, foundations, concealers, etc.


I like having all my palettes spread out so I can find them easily!


Eyeliners, mascaras, blushes, and face powders can easily be organized using these longer drawer bins from Dollar Tree.

Watch the rest in my video...
