Weekly Tip, Beauty News and Nail Color of the Week

Hello! It's that time of the week again. This weeks tip is great if you have dry skin. So be sure to check out the tip below. 

I actually have two topics for beauty news this week and unlike last week I actually have a new nail design this week. Hopefully I will have the Jamberry review up soon. I'm really glad that I'm done testing them out and I hate to spoil the surprise but I have to say I'm pleasantly pleased with Jamberry Nails. 

Like always, if you have any questions just leave a comment below! Thanks for reading!  



You know I have always suspected this but I didn't know if I was just crazy. But it did seem like everytime I used a brush my skin would look terrible. Maybe some of you are in my position and you know what I'm talking about. I have dry acne and when I where foundation it can tend to look like I have red dry circles all over my face. This is not a cute look and no one can pull it off. What makes it worse? Brushes. I know a lot of people use brushes and they're great. But if you have dry skin then it's a huge no no. Some brushes are ok. For instance, a stippling brush is appropriate for drier skin but honestly I recommend a Beauty Blender. 
Yes, Beauty Blenders can be pricey but they are a necessary investment if you struggle on a daily basis with dry skin. They provide extra moisture during application and they don't make dry spots apparent. If you don't want to fork out the money for a $20 sponge, Real Techniques makes a dupe for only $6.   






There's a new beauty trend among celebrities! Probably everyone else, too! As you can see in the picture above Adelle has her fingernails manicured but what makes them special is the red polish underneath her nail. How cute is that? I always hated the look long nails have when the under part of the nail is showing. I really think this provides an extra polished look and I'm sure it will be a huge trend soon. What do you think? 





There's a new product by Pixi Beauty coming out next month! How exciting. This weeks post must be all about dry skin becuase this Glow Mist will be a miracle for dry skin. I don't have all of the details but just by looking at it I know I want it. In the picture it says it is a glow mist with Propolis and Argan Oil. It is nourishing, hydrating, and protective. I'm sure it will be great for setting makeup if you're after a dewy finish. Maybe it will be similar to Mac's Fix+? I hope it is! We need a good drugstore spray that freshens makeup but still provides skin benefits. I'm just hoping the price isn't more expensive than Mac's Fix+. Pixi isn't exactly known for their affordable prices. I'm expecting it to be around $15-30. 

 If you're interested in it, then follow Pixi by Petra on Instagram. I'm sure they'll post updates. Also keep a look out for it at your local Target. If you do spot it, PLEASE let me know! 





For this weeks nail color I used E.l.f Cosmetics nail polish in Smoky Brown and Jamberrys nail wrap in Diamond Dust Sparkle as my accent nail. The nail polish is really cute but I would recommended skipping it. It had extreme chipping and I ended up removing it. I think I'm just going to stick with Jamberry nail wraps for now on! I just can't handle chipped nails. 

Are you going to follow Adelle's trend?
Are you excited for Pixi Beauty's new launch?
