Beautify and Creatify

Hello beautiful people! Today's post is going to be short, since all I have to talk about is new NYX cosmetics Luv Out Loud Liquid Lipsticks. NYX cosmetics came out with 6 beautiful shades that represent 6 qualities of beautiful people: brave, fearless, brilliant, confident, extraordinary and passionate. Which one do you relate to the most? Well, word-wise, personally, I'd go with passionate. Color-wise, I'm torn between brilliant and brave. I mean, look at all these amazing shades:

Hi beautiful people! Today's post is going to be about Milk Makeup Blur Liquid Matte Foundation and the ultimate test I had put it to. Are you ready?

Hi beauties! Hope all is well with you. The past few days have been challenging for us Houstonians because of the disaster the city has faced due to hurricane Harvey. However, it has brought all the people together in unimaginable ways, showing the world how people of different races, ages, genders and religions standing shoulder by shoulder, helping one another to get through hardships one day at a time. #HoustonStrong ! In today's post I've prepared a thorough review of new PUR cosmetics palettes: Soiree Diaries  eyeshadow palette and Contour Diaries  ultra matte contour kit. When I first received these palettes, the packaging caught my attention right away. It was a beauty blogger's dream: marble patterns on the outer packaging and on actual packaging of the palettes too! I mean, how more beautiful it can get?

Here I am, once again, with another Jouer collection (*singing like Kelly Clarkson*, *i wish, because I can't sing*, *but no, I meant the music tune, not the voice*, *ok, let's start this post*). Hello, my beautiful readers! Today's post is about a recent exciting launch from Jouer cosmetics - their Spring 2017 Rose Gold Collection. Before I start, I have an exciting news!! I recently upgraded my camera! Woohoo! I still have a lot to learn about it, but the photo of Jouer's Rose gold collection palette is pretty much the first product shot I took using my new camera, which also reflects in the photo.

Hi lovelies! I've been wanting to write this post for a while now, but I wanted to make sure that I test all the products well and write a thorough, honest review, which is going to be straight to the point and easy for you to decide if you want this product or not. From the title you have probably guessed that this post is going to be about Pixi by Petra "Pixi Pretties" collaboration with some of the biggest beauty influencers: Maryam Maquillage, ItsJudytime, Aspyn Ovard and Caroline Hirons. I was blessed to attend Generation Beauty in LA this year too, where I met Pixi beauty team, who sent me the whole #pixipretties collection few months ago. I filmed my first impression review by demonstrating each product, which you can watch here: Now, I had an opportunity to use and test products for few months now and here are my thoughts about each and every one of them. Let's start with ItsJudytime collaboration. 

Happy Valentine's Day!!! Do you celebrate this holiday with your significant other or by yourself? If yes, what how do you celebrate it? Do you have an annual tradition that makes this day special for you (even if it is buying chocolate for yourself)? I personally don't celebrate Valentine's day, but growing up February 14th was always a big day in our household - because my sister was born on this day! Today isn't an exception - although we are not together physically today, my sister is still having a big birthday party at her place celebrating her special day and I virtually joined her and the guests for a little bit. Happy Birthday, big Sis! I am so blessed to have you in my life. Since our age difference is relatively big, I remember how she would take care of me, teach me many things, help me in many ways and always be there when I needed her. May God grant you the best, always protect you and fill your life with happiness and joy. I love you. Today is Valentin...

2016 was a year of glow. Everyone making sure that their glow is seen from the Moon and taking the subtle strobing to the next level. In 2017 this trend does not to seem to fade out, in fact every time I post a photo like the one below, I receive questions about how I make my highlight pop in photos. Today, I decided to talk about it and share all my tips and tricks on how I make my highlight pop in pictures and in real life.

Hey there! So, who watched Super Bowl last night? Honestly, I'm not a big fan of football, but I'm one of those people who watches the game just to see the Halftime show. However, last night's game was quite interesting, to say the least, and especially, since it was happening in Houston, the energy and vibe of this year's Super Bowl was different for us Houstonians. Ok, let's talk about Lady Gaga's halftime performance, though? Do I need to say anything? The performance, outfits, makeup, choreography, the entire scene set up, all those lightened up drones... wasn't it just beautiful? Gaga's singing, dancing, music skills, as well as her acrobatic "spiderman" tricks were on point. I loved her appearance last night so much and felt so inspired, so I sat down at my filming corner and recreated her look.

Hello my beautiful readers! I know, I know, it's been a while! But I'm back and here to stay! If you follow me on other social media platforms, you pretty much see me there regularly, however I also want to give same attention to my happy place in this web world - my blog!  Just a quick update, I decided to change my handle names to make it easier for me to do business in the future (all my handle updates are on the home page of the blog), but if you are following me already on other outlets, then it's all still the same, just different name.  Today I want to share with you beautiful makeup look that was inspired by Emma Stone's makeup from her Golden Globes 2017 appearance. I loved her Old Hollywood style hair and soft makeup, as well as her outfit - everything about this look was just perfect. I thought it is such a wonderful look for upcoming Valentine's day and decided to recreate it.
