HI guys! it's been a while since I've not been posting in this blog! sorry....But i'm going to write a loooooot in this year!
I want to talk about a lot of thing, even if I have lots to do for my University.....
Let me start with my best beauty buys of the last month!

1. False Lashes: I bought a pair of cheap falsies for new year's eve, just for fun. They were too long and too dramatic in my opinion, so I decided to cut them in small pieces, just as the individual lashes that you can buy.
They are great!!!!!!!!!!








2. Pink lipsticks: not really bright lipsticks; they're really like my natural lip color.
I bought two lipsticks that are very similar to each other ad I realized it only at home!
But when I apply them, they're quite different.
They're the Kiko Smart Lipstick 11 and the Kiko Mat Lipstick 286 (in order).
They're gorgeous, not really hydrating (i put before ad after a little bit of lip balm), but they stay in place all the time. In this photo the last lipstick seems to be a little dark,
but it isn't!


3. Side swept bangs/ fringe: I'm completely in love with Angelina Jolie hair! I have long hair, like her (but I don't look like her!) but I've always wanted to update my look a little bit.
So I went to my hairdresser (gorgeous girl) and she cut my hair like hers, with a kind of fringe, that I can keep to the side or in front of my forehead...just great....
I always complete my new hair with a pair of bold earrings, nude lips, an intense smokey eye and that's all!















4. The perfect eyebrow color for natural blonde hair: "Like a Virgin" eyeshadow from Too Faced Palette "Naked eye".


Please let me know what are your last months' favourites!!

Hi guys! Sorry but I have to study a lot and I don't have enough time for everything!
Let me apologize! I wan to talk about new trends that I've recently tried....

1. The fishtail braid: a little bit difficult but I can improve! It's so chic and almost nobody wants to try it because of the lack of time!














2. Red lipstick: do not apply it with a brush, but with your fingertips...just a little bit of colour so it's less serious and less "Diva from the Fifties"! Look how gorgeous this beautiful girl wears it! She's is a famous blogger...Go to WWW.AFTERDRK.COM
3. A kind of turquoise-green nail polish : it's exactly the same shade as Jade (Chanel) but less expensive. Everybody's going to watch it!

Kristin Cavallari's Makeup


Hi everyone! Look how amazing is Cavallari's look!
It takes only a black eyeliner, mascara or false lashes, a peachy/brown eyeshadow on the crease and a light beige shimmery color in the inner corners!
For the lips a neutral lipstick and gloss and you're ready to go!
Remember to highlight the cheekbones, the browbone, the bridge of your nose and chin....
And only gold earrings/bracelets and accessories with this bronzey look...

New Weekend, New Trends...


Hi! I'm so happy for my first follower! I'm going to continue this blog for my future readers!ihih
Today I'm going to talk about Julianne Hough...Almost nobody in Italy knows her, it's a professional american dancer...
This is a sophisticated look but also very affordable.
The key in this makeup look is the skin, that is glowing and bronzey.
Even if I'm a eyebrow-obsessed, I don't like hers, that seems to be too artificial and very overpenciled.
First I'm going to dust just a little bit of bronzer on the cheekbones, forehead and nose, and a touch of blush on the apples of the cheeks.
Next a shimmery neutral eyeshadow all over the lid, a little bit of black/grey pencil into the upper lashline and lots of mascara....The mouth is not too overdone, just a touch of pink gloss...
Highlighting is essential...look just under the eyes' area, in the forehead, in the cupid's bow and in the browbone zone.
A pair of bold earrings and you're done!
Thank you so much for reading my blog!
Xoxo

About Starting....



Hi Guys! Today I'm going to be doing a new esperience!
I'm starting my first blog!
Let me introduce myself: my name's Sara, I'm an Italian Student, I'm 20 and I love makeup! It's a little bit obvious, but I just don't know what to say!
I've been watching lots of makeup videos for about three years and I love makeup gurus as Kandee Johnson! I just want to show you how I can (or I can't!) do some makeup/hair/nail trends...and what I love or hate about them! Let me know what you think!
I want to start with......Scarlett Johansson.......
This is a pic from her new DOLCE & GABBANA campaign....
What I love about her makeup is the flawless face, the defined eye and the nude lip....
I think that's what I'm going to wear this evening....I have a birthday party....
First, I'm going to banish any dark circles with a yellow concealer under my eyes, then I'll use it around the nose. Then I'll apply my foundation. I don't use any powder, blush or bronzer because I don't like to feel heavy...
Next I'm going to line my upper and bottom lashline with a black pencil. Then I'm going to smudge a little bit of brown eyeshadow into the crease.
And tons of mascara! For the eyebrows just a little bit of a light brown pencil....
For the lip, I'll blend foundation and I'll use the same eyebrow pencil ( I like it because it's neutral and multitasking!!). Then lipstick and a touch of golden gloss....
For the hair I don't know what to do...maybe a beachy wavy hair....it's so easy to do...or maybe a simple updo....

Just Keep Reading!
