Concealer 101

So many people consider concealer a must have in their makeup bag, but shopping for one can be soo overwhelming. When looking at an isle you will see that not only to they come in regular skin tones but that they also come in colors such as green, yellow, and purple. Every color can help target a specific problem area, and you can learn the basics by just looking at the color wheel.

Basically any color on the wheel cancels out what is across from it, for example a green concealer would cancel out any redness.

Purple or violet concealers get rid of any yellow undertones that your skin may have, and evening it out in the process.

The color green cancels out any redness you may have under your eyes or caused by blemishes.

Topshop: Astrix Boots & Forever 21 Slip Ons

I will be the first one to admit that I have an addiction to buying shoes, which I guess is why I recently ended up bringing home two new pairs.

Last week, I ordered the Astrix Platform Boots from Topshop. I got them in the black leather style and even though I haven't worn them out yet they are probably my new favorites. Trying them on around the house, they are very comfortable and it doesn't really feel like you're wearing heels because the whole shoe is a platform. They are currently on sale for $40.

From Forever 21, I grabbed their leather slip on flats (sneakers?), I've been seeing different versions of these in tons of stores recently like Vans, Nordstrom, and Steve Madden which all are a little more expensive.

DIY: Jewelry Box

While shopping, I came across this tiny wooden box, and instantly thought it would be perfect for a DIY. You can make this easy and affordable jewelry box for under $5.
You need:
- a small wooden, or plastic box (this one was on sale at Target for under $3)
- your choice of spray paint ($0.97 at Home Depot)
- optional decorations
- an outdoor work space

I made the mistake of doing this on a windy day so my newspaper was blowing everywhere. I sprayed my first coat of paint, then let it dry for about 30-40 minutes before going over it another time. I did a total of four layers of paint (two on the outside and two on the inside of the box). I picked up a few pendants and decorations from Hobby Lobby, but haven't decided if I'm going to add them yet.
