NSYNC No Strings Attached Inspired Makeup: Album Cover Makeup

February 27, 2019 By McKenzie Leave a Comment

It’s that time again! Time for another Album Cover Makeup look! If you missed the first month with Twenty One Pilots Trench, head on over to see it! I am beyond excited to announce the next album cover makeup look is none other than NSYNC No Strings Attached!

No Strings Attached was one of the very first albums that I ever bought. It helped shape my love of music at the ripe age of 11. I was a die hard NSYNC fan, but wasn’t ever able to see them perform live. So instead of living my middle school dreams of seeing NSYNC perform live, I lived my second best dream of becoming a puppet just like the boys of NSYNC. [Read more…]

Twenty One Pilots Trench Inspired Makeup: Album Cover Makeup

January 24, 2019 By McKenzie Leave a Comment

I am starting a new series “Album Cover Makeup” today and I feel like a little kid at Christmas! I have been dreaming of this day for over a year now and all of it is finally happening! I am kicking things off with Twenty One Pilots Trench and it turned out exactly how I wanted it to. I am so excited about the finished product!

Music has always played a big part in how I am inspired. I can’t sing and I can’t play instruments, so I have to share that inspiration in a way that doesn’t involve music. That’s why I am so excited about my new Album Cover Makeup series! Every month, I will have a new music album that has inspired me in some way or has somehow shaped who I am. I can’t even put to words how excited I am for this series! It is my passion project for the year. I know that it isn’t something that most of you are as passionate about as I am, but I hope that you can get excited to see what albums are featured and what crazy things I come up with every month!

I love a good coupon, but especially when that coupon can be used on beauty products! I have been a fan of Wet N Wild for basically my entire life. I recently tried their Hello Halo Liquid Highlighters and it totally made me fall in love with them all over again. When I went to Walgreens this week, I picked up one of their Mega Last Liquid Catsuit Lipsticks to try out.

Back to School Beauty: Items to Keep in your Bag

August 7, 2018 By McKenzie Leave a Comment

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Burt’s Bees. All opinions are 100% mine.

Back to school brings lots of new chaos and challenges into our lives. What it doesn’t need to bring is an excuse to ignore our beauty routine! Walmart has a ton of great Burt’s Bees products you need to get ready for back to college and school. Whether you are a busy mom who is taking her kids to and from school, or you are a high school or college student staying up late and waking up early for class, your beauty routine shouldn’t be ignored just because of the chaos.

The summer spent in the sun can be hard on your skin and it is important to give your skin the attention it needs with the changing of seasons. That is why I absolutely love Burt’s Bees beauty products from Walmart. I know that they are made with ingredients that my skin loves and I know I can trust them! [Read more…]

Five Minute Face Using Drugstore Makeup

August 3, 2018 By McKenzie 2 Comments

There is a lot of underrated drugstore makeup out there. I have been testing out different drugstore makeup items that are similar to high end makeup items that I already love. Some items worked better than others, but in the end I found some really great alternatives to the pricey items I was using before. To make the deal even sweeter, all of the items that I used on my five minute makeup look are included in the Kroger spend $15, save $5 (mix & match) sale they have right now. I got all of my beauty products at my local Smith’s Marketplace and was able to save on every item that I bought!

Glam Fall Makeup Look

November 21, 2017 By McKenzie 1 Comment

This shop has been compensated by ACUVUE® Brand Contact Lenses and Collective Bias, Inc. All opinions are mine alone. #TreatYourEyes2 #TreatYourEyes #CollectiveBias

I love making my makeup a little more moody as the seasons change. After a summer full of light and airy makeup, I am ready to bring on the rich colors of Fall. This glam Fall makeup look can easily be worn as an everyday look if it is paired with a little less dramatic lip color and looks fantastic for a night out with an even more dramatic lip color! I love how regal it feels, without being over the top and difficult to recreate.

When I do my makeup like this and really try to focus on my eye makeup, it is important that I wear contacts. I have experienced doing my makeup in the past, only to have to wear my glasses and it just kind of takes away the effect! I find my ACUVUE® Brand Contact Lenses just as important in my beauty routine as my actual beauty products. I have absolutely loved these ACUVUE® VITA® Brand Contact lenses that were so highly recommended to me during my Target Optical® visit.

To create this eye makeup look, I used one eyeshadow palette with many neutral options. I love having a palette like this because I can find every color I need in one place. I also used a liquid eyeliner pen and volumizing mascara. [Read more…]

What to Expect When Getting Permanent Makeup

October 30, 2017 By McKenzie 2 Comments

I used to fill in my eyebrows every single day. I did it so many times, that I thought that I had gotten it down to the point where it didn’t take very long. Then one day I was trying to get out the door and I was just going to fill in my brows and put on some mascara before leaving the house because I didn’t have time to worry about anything else. Those few steps ended up taking way longer than they should have. That was when I finally decided to start saving to get permanent makeup done on my brows!
