Honest Review: Glitter and Glam Eyeshadow Palette

Image
Hello everyone! So, in case your new to my blog, I love TJMaxx, and so, I was shopping there one day, and I found an eyeshadow palette called "Glitter and Glam" by ProFusion and decided to try it out. This is the first post of three, because today is a special Sunday! So I hope you all enjoy reading about it! So, most of the eyeshadows are matte, but there are two shimmer colors, called "Mellow" and "cheers". Which is weird because its glimmer and glam, and most are not glittery. I think it is better that there are more mattes, because they are way more easy to work with then shimmers. The colors are super pigmented and really creamy. I love this eyeshadow palette because it has natural shades that are easy to work with. At TJMaxx, this eyeshadow was only 3 bucks! Its really good quality! The colors are: "Whipped" (which is a nice creamy white) "Mellow" (Which is a light shimmery beige color) "Starstruck" (Which is

Completely Honest Review: LA Colors Eyeshadow Palette

Image
Hello everyone! My name is Greta, and I love anything fashion and beauty, but because I'm so cheap, its always hard to find beauty brands that work for me! LA colors has some great stuff, but sometimes its not the best. I love this eyeshadow palette from LA colors that I got recently, so I thought I would do a review on it for you my lovelies! So I hope you all enjoy reading my second artical of the day! In case you do not know, I pick a day every once in a while I choose a Sunday or a Wednesday to upload three times instead of one! Enjoy! I love this palette because I have been obsessed with bronzy, shimmery eyeshadows, and this is a perfect palette for that look. This is a very pigmented and shimmery eyeshadow palette, so if your going to be getting this palette, keep that in mind. There are no matte eyeshadows in this palette, and I like to start with a matte base, so you might want to have some matte eyeshadows if your going to use this palette. These eyeshadows are very p

Amber Scholl Look book

Hello my beautiful people! So today, I was bored, so I decided to watch some YouTube videos by Amber Scholl. Anyways, later, I was coming up with blog post ideas and I thought "Greta, you should do something to do with Amber Scholl because, well, she's the best! Maybe a look book" and then I thought "no, I have most likely done that already" and then I looked and GUESS WHAT I DID NOT SEE ON MY BLOG? An Amber Scholl Look book. So I have to do this for my own good. I am obsessed with YouTuber, Amber Scholl, because she is confident, loving, sweet, extra, the list goes on and on. She gets what she dreams of because she works hard and she is herself. Amber, if you EVER read my blog, I love your channel. HA!

Anyways, this introduction is getting a little long, so I'll just get on with it! A very #Extra Amber Scholl Look book! Well, I hope y

Review: My Life As Eva's Book

Image
Hello my lovely people! Its Greta! Happy Sunday! So, normally on this blog I do fashion and beauty related things, but today I am doing something different! As you probably know, I am a huge fan of Mylifeaseva (aka Eva Gutowski), and she came out with a book! I got it a few days ago and I have already read it 4 times! Its such a good book! So today I am going to be ranting about it. A lot of the book is about fashion and beauty, so it kinda relates to my blog! Enjoy! Here are some things I love about this book: 1. The pictures are bright, fun and colorful, which makes me want to keep reading. 2. In the book, Eva writes many awkward and funny stories about a younger Eva.  3. It shares real opinions about body image, clothes and makeup. Eva made sure she told everyone who read her book that they are beautiful no matter what! And I believe that statement completely.  4. She shows tips, and things she wishes she would have known, when she was a teenager.  5. She is co

My Top Three Hair Care Products

Hello everyone! Its Greta! Today I am back once more with a hair care post! And its the third and final post of this extra post Wednesday! So today I am going to be showing you some amazing hair care products that I really love! I don't use hairspray, which people may find weird, but I usually just use my hair paste or other products. These are just my top three hair care products, so please don't expect a ton of products! I hope you all enjoy reading! 1. I live for my living proof defining styling cream. This helps all the tiny pieces of hair that stick up, stay down, and it is so helpful! Also, if I am rocking a curly look, it helps my hair stay that way, same with straight hair! It just over all helps my hair be the best it can be. It was also voted best hair care product by "allure". I would 100% recommend this product. 2. This is kind of a fancy occasion kind of hair product for me. Its the voluming mousse in the middle. I love this stuff! It helps my hair

My Current Favorite Makeup Products

Hello everyone! And welcome to the second post of today! In case you don't know, I always pick a Wednesday or Sunday every once in a while where I post three times instead of one!  So for the first time, I am using my own picture in this blog post! I am going to try to start using a bunch of my own pictures! So today I am going to be showing you my current favorite makeup products, this is not all my makeup, but these are my current favorites! So I hope you all enjoy reading! (PS: the brush, sponge and eyelash curler are just decoration. They are beauty tools, not beauty products!) LA Colors Powder: I use the color "Medium Translucent", because tinted powders don't usually work in the summer, when I usually get tanner. This is super nice because even though its a really cheap it does not cake, and it goes on super smooth! I love this product because its easy to apply and it helps have the appearance of tight pores. Mineral Fusion Sheer Tint Foundation: I used t

Things You Should Know About Makeup

Image
Hello my fabulous people! I am back once more, and today I am going to be telling you some things you should know about makeup. Also, I just thought I would let you know that today is one of those days where I post three posts instead of one! So look out!  Makeup is awesome, and I don't want anyone who reads this to feel bad for not knowing these things, but these are some things I feel everyone should learn about makeup! So I hope you enjoy reading! Question: Does price matter? Answer: Yes, and No. It matters more the quality of the makeup, rather then the price. If you want to splurge on makeup, and you have the money, go for it, if you can't, thats okay. There are plenty of brands that are amazing and you can find them at Target, and drugstores. Makeup is about you feeling, and looking your best, its not abut trying to impress anyone but yourself. So I guess if I had to give a one word answer I would say, no. Question: Sephora or Drugstore? Answer: what ever you lik
