Beauty Trends: Lil Yachty’s Nail Polish Brand

Butterflies, I joined TikTok recently @BelleButterflyTX, I haven’t posted anything yet but if you’re also on TikTok, stop by and say hi. Anyway, a post from Lil Yachty showed up on my fyp and apparently he released a nail paint collection; who knew this? I think it’s pretty awesome and even though his target audience appears to be men, I’m definitely interested in trying the nail paint pens out.

Best Elizabeth Taylor Quotes

The only knowledge I had about one of the world’s most influential women of all time when I was growing up is that she got married A LOT, that’s pretty much the only thing people cared about. I recently discovered some pretty cool new things that I never knew about her. Elizabeth Taylor was born in the UK and later moved to the US with her family. She started acting as a youth and later became a very respected businesswoman and humanitarian. She became royalty, made Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II in 2000. Elizabeth Taylor was born with distichiasis (double eyelashes) which gave her naturally fuller looking eyelashes and another genetic mutation that caused her dark blue eyes to appear violet at times. Elizabeth Taylor’s unique natural beauty was and still is admired by people all over the world. Her birthday is today February 27th, so in celebration of her I’m sharing some of my favorite Elizabeth Taylor quotes below:

Beauty Trends: Whitening Teeth at Home With Smile Brilliant

This is a sponsored post.

Hey Beautiful Butterflies. Prior to trying out Smile Brilliant the only whitening product I used as part of my daily routine was whitening toothpaste. However, in the past I’ve tried whitening strips and a whitening rinse but saw very little results. I’m not really a coffee drinker but I do drink a lot of tea and enjoy an occasional glass of wine and eat berries almost daily. Since most of what we eat and drink has the potential to stain our teeth over time, using a whitening product is a must if you want to look and feel your best when you smile. Currently the #1 dentist recommended teeth whitening method is using custom-fitted whitening trays. Using whitening trays ensure that every angle of every tooth (regardless of whether your teeth are straight or not) receives even and consistent coverage of our professional strength whitening gel. Smile Brilliant offers custom-fitted whitening trays for 70% less and up to 5x faster. The average U.S. dentist charges $500+ for the exact same service.

Beauty Trends: Makeup Swap Spring 2018

Hey Butterflies. I recently participated in a blogger beauty swap, hosted by beauty blogger Mary Yowell of PrettyOnADime.com. I received a package from Missouri beauty & lifestyle blogger Amber (@xoxoammarie) of xoxoAm.com

Amber sent me products from two of my favorite beauty brands; e.l.f. and NYX. I love both of these brands because they make quality beauty products for reasonable prices. I received an e.l.f. brand lip exfoliator, a metallic NYX prismatic eyeshadow in Punk Heart, a black liner from the NYX Epic Ink Collection and a lip dye in Victorian which is also from the NYX Epic Ink Collection.

Beauty Trends: BlackHairspray.com

This is a sponsored post. All opinions are mine.

Hey Beautiful Butterflies! This months beauty trend is from a company I recently discovered and have since come to really like. Black Hairspray is a leading beauty e-commerce company that offers thousands of wigs and hair care products. If you're looking for a simple way to change up your look without committing to a certain style, I suggestion trying a wig. You'll be surprised how a simple change in your hairstyle can boost your mood and self confidence. Black Hairspray customers range from professional stylists, beauticians, working mothers, students, etc. There are several different wig options to choose from, a few of my favorite lace front wigs from Black Hairspray are the Outre Synthetic Hand-Tied Full Lace Wig – Kara, the It's A Wig! Salon Human Hair Lace Front Wig – Natural Wave, the Bobbi Boss Human Hair Lace Front Wig – Lacie & Cecilia, and the FreeTress Equal Brazilian Natural Deep Invisible L Part Lace Front Wig – Danity.
