6 Tips To Keep Your Eye Makeup In Place

So much effort goes into applying your makeup, the last thing we look forward to is the end of the day smudges and raccoon circles. Here are some of my go-to tricks and tips.

1. If you use eye cream along with your makeup, let it settle in and dry. I apply my eye cream right after my shower while I am drinking my coffee to give it time as I am getting dressed in the morning to dry before I apply my makeup.

2. If you have oily skin as I do then you are in need of a primer specifically for your eyes.

3. When applying your mascara use the wand vertically to define the lower lashes and use the wand horizontally to define the upper eyelashes. Apply two coats of mascara and allow them to dry in between.

4. Apply your eye makeup prior to applying your foundation and concealer.

5. Building up your eye makeup in light layers will allow it to look natural and last longer than applying one heavy layer.

They say flowers, allow your home and life to bloom with new things. Here is a quick DIY with a little St. Patrick’s Day theme.

1. I prepare my flowers by cutting the bottom tips and remove the leaves.
2. I then create a mock sample of what I want the flower bouquet to look like, I remove it, and save it on the side.
3. I chose to use General Mills Lucky Charms for this arrangement.
4. I place plastic wrap on the top of the small vase to help pour the lucky charms only into the large vase.
5. Once I completed pouring the lucky charms into the large vase, I then place my premade bouquet into the base and add water and flower food.
6. I then arrange the flowers with a bit of love, and then they’re all set.

Conquering my fears …
On our trip to Hawaii, the boys wanted to do excursions - swimming with the Dolphins was on the top of the list. Although I think dolphins are amazing animals I had an internal fear on how this can go wrong. You can’t see it in the picture but I was panicking inside. So HAPPY I had the experience. It was amazing! The staff was extremely supportive throughout the whole thing.
