Want a beautiful glow to your skin this summer? Don't want to pay $59 for the new Fenty Body Lava? Here are 2 dupes you can try:
1. THE BABY OIL DUPE
What you'll need:
Any shimmer eye shadow/highlighter color of your choice
Baby Oil (Travel Size is best)
This hack is great if you want glow and shine. The baby oil is really going to give you a beautiful shine with the highlighter inside, but keep in mind you will also have the oily feeling to the skin.
All you have to do is crush up the highlighter/eyeshadow and combine with the baby oil and shake.
Few tips:
Keep in mind you'll have to use a lot of highlighter. I used an old broken one. Use shadows you don't
Take out some oil if you want a more pigmented body illuminator
Play with highlighters/eyeshadows. Because I'm more fair, I wish I would have used a darker highlighter.
2. THE NIVEA AFTER SHAVE BALM HACK
What you'll need:
Any shimmer eye shadow/highlighter color of your choice
Nivea After Shave Balm
For a more pigmented body illuminator, I recommend only using a little bit of Nivea After Shave Balm. Start with a little and add as you get your desired color.
Before you go shopping for a new nose ring, let me give you the break down of the many different styles because chances are the shop stylist is going to ask you which kind of nose ring you prefer and your just going to standing there like uhhhh...
Just keep in mind, each style is different and what might work for some might not work for others. It's all trial and error.
Corkscrews - Most common nose ring to be pierced with. Pros: Doesn’t come out easily. Cons: Hangs out of nose. Difficult to put in.
Bone - Straight nose ring with a tiny ball at the end. (My Personal Favorite) Pros: Doesn’t come out easily. Great if you don’t plan on changing. Cons: Can be painful putting in at first. If you were pierced with a thicker gauge it may fall out easily
Bend to Fit Nose Rings - Straight nose ring that you can bend to fit your exact nose. Pros: Flexible, Customize to your nose, great for those with a thicker nose. Cons: I have yet to find any..
L shape - Nose ring that has a slight bend in it. Pros: Easily take in and out Cons: Comes out easier
Hoops - Circle nose ring Pros: Gives nose piercing room to breath Cons: Hoops are curved. Can be difficult to put in for a newbie.

Because my headboard is very tall, it started to make my room feel very small and I needed a new way to make my bedroom feel larger. I've also always wanted to put fairy lights in my bedroom so that gave me the idea to use the fairy lights to elongate my headboard and make the room feel larger and not so cramped.
When you watch the video, you'll see that originally I had my curtain rod right above the window which again just made the room feel very small. I decided to raise the rod to about an inch away from the ceiling, which instantly made the room feel larger.
I really scored big with these lights I found on Amazon. (You know it's a hit or a miss on there.) They're good to go as soon as you take them out the box! All you do is attached to the command hooks to the wall and you're good to go. Think of them like the icicle lights but for your bedroom and longer! You don't have to loop them up and down if you don't want to (I did so there wasn't wasted lights hiding behind my headboard).
This DIY was super quick and easy and I love how it looks at night. They act like a nightlight in a way. I can still see what I need without turning on the light and waking up my one year old who still sleeps in our room. Watch the video above to see how it's done!
Watch Max get her cartilage pierced for the FIRST time! She got what is called a double cartilage piercing or “Snake Bites.”
Cartilage is the translucent elastic tissue located in the upper portion of the ear.Think of the cartilage area as two separate layers – the skin covering thecartilage and the cartilage itself.
The cartilage can be pierced just like the lobe, with no greater pressure or specialtechnique required. During the healing period, the overlying skin cells migrate into the piercing to form a channel through which the earring can slide.

6 months after I got my cartilage pierced I started to have problems with my two cartilage piercings. Both became swollen and had a large bump on the back with puss. I was 17 at the time and knew nothing like I do now when it came to piercings. I couldn’t take the pain and annoyance of wearing studs because they were too tight on my ears and I didn’t like the feeling when I slept with them. I switched to the only pair of tiny earrings I had at the time which were my baby hoops.
Once I started working at Piercing Pagoda, I switched my cartilage earrings to a pair of tiny gold hoops and I’ve had them in ever since. Hoops for me personally are much more comfortable in the cartilage. I personally don’t like the feeling of sleeping with earring studs in my cartilage. I know that they’re there in my ears and it’s uncomfortable. With a hoop, I never notice that it’s inside of my cartilage and rarely ever get it caught to anything.
Different types of hoops:
Hinged
Huggies
Continuous
Studs:
Internally Threaded
Basic Stud with Butterfly/Silicone Backing
Earrings shown all from Piercing Pagoda. Visit your local Piercing Pagoda or shop online
What’s the difference between the blue and pink bottle of Garnier Micellar Water? Looking at the bottle it honestly looks the same other than one is blue and one is pink.. took me forever to figure it out (b/c I obviously don’t like to read). The blue bottle of Micellar Water is actually supposed to be better at removing waterproof makeup. The blue bottle leaves more of an oily feeling vs the pink which doesn’t leave any residue. See

Hey what's up everyone, it's Christina. Welcome back to my channel. Today I have for you guys a review. I'm going to be reviewing something new. It's actually from Sigma. These are the new loose powders from Sigma, part of their Stellar Glow collection.
They have some new loose powders and then also some new glitter. I have a total of five. I have two glitters and two shimmers. I'm going to be showing you guys swatches and then I'm going to be showing you guys how I use them.
I did use them on my eyes today, so I'm going to be telling you guys how that worked out. Then, I'm going to be putting it on my cheeks. Also, I'm going to be showing you guys how you can actually use these as a lip topper. If you guys are interested in this video, then make sure you keep watching. Also, don't forget to subscribe for more videos.
I was going to show you guys swatches, but it came out like a total fail just because I'm so white and the glitters are very pale. You can't really see them on my arm, so it's kind of pointless. I have Bewitched and also Etheral. They're both white glitters. To me they're almost the same. I really can't find a difference. One has a little bit more green to it. I would say Bewitched has a little bit more green to it.
Then we have Felicity, which in the pan it looks purple and it does show up purple and pink. These are all kind of like duo chromes. Next I have Zeal. I'm not sure if you can see that. Which Zeal comes out purple, but it also has this bluish, purplish tint to it.
Now those are all the loose pigments. What's great about these is that you can actually use them for several different things. You can use them as eyeshadows, a highlighter, and even a topper for your lips. That's what's really good about them.
I did use them as an eyeshadow today and I didn't care for them as an eyeshadow. I tried to use MAC Mixing Medium with it and I don't know if it's that, that just didn't make it work that well. I couldn't see it at first on my lids, so I used the MAC Mixing Medium to make it more pigmented and show up, but it ended up getting really chunky.
As a highlighter, these actually work out very well, at least the loose powders. I wouldn't use the glitters. I'm going to show you guys real quick. I'm going to use Felicity. I'm just going to dump some in the cap. Then, I'm going to use my Sigma FO3 brush. This is more of a purple, a pinkish purple. They look really, really nice as highlighters.
Next on the other cheek, I'm going to use Ravishing. Ravishing is the lightest shade and I find it hard to come up. Next up I'm going to take Ravishing and put that on my other side, but that looks really pretty as well.
Next I'm going to use Zeal as a lip topper. Look how pretty, look how cool that is. I think that's my favorite part about these is the fact that you can use these on top of lipsticks and because they're duo chrome, they look so cool. I love it. You can't find many things out there like this. I love this. I think that looks so pretty together. If you're wondering, the lipstick I'm wearing is the NYX Liquid Suede, color ... I don't know. This is the color Oh Put It On. Yeah, look how cool that is.
If you guys are interested in getting these, my favorite colors are Felicity and Zeal. I love Zeal. I think it will look really, really pretty as a lip topper on many different lipsticks and Felicity's really pretty as well.
The glitters, they are very, very pretty, but they would probably work better as eyeshadow. Ravishing, it's really light. I think it will look good in maybe the inner corner. My top two are Felicity and Zeal. If you guys are interested in picking them up, those are the two that I really like. I will leave them in the description bar if you guys are interested in getting them.
Yeah, that is all for today's video. If you guys like this video, make sure you guys give it a thumbs up. Also, don't forget to subscribe for more videos.
