BENEFITS OF GREEN TEA!!!

You want to learn more about the benefits of Green tea? 
I think you should!
IT is very beneficial!


1. Green tea is full of anti oxidants
What are anti oxidants?
  • "All teas from the camellia tea plant are rich in polyphenols, which are a type of antioxidant. These wonder nutrients scavenge for cell-damaging free radicals in the body and detoxify them" (John Weisburger, PhD, senior researcher at the Institute for Cancer Prevention.)
2. Green Tea is very concentrated!
  • Green Tea is very concentrated because the leaves are withered and steamed in its process. The leaves are not fermented like oolong or black teas. When you even make it, you boil the water and the leaves, the water is very concentrated, and the more concentrated it is, the healthier!

3. Green Tea  is a excellent source of WEIGHT LOSS!
  • "Studies have also shown green tea extracts are capable of reducing fat digestion by inhibiting digestive enzymes. Others have shown thermogenic properties of green tea (probably brought on by the interaction between its caffeine content). Thermogenesis is the process of the body burning fuel (fat) without making chemical energy (the calories are released as heat) www.freedieting.com

SEA GREEN EYES

Hey babes!!! 
I called this look "Sea green eyes" 
This is how it looked on me!!!

I really love light green and emerald green color because I think if you apply green eye shadow, it makes your eyes pop, green also makes your eyes look so bright and especially if you have dark brown or brown eyes like mine, green will make your dark eyes look so much more big and beautiful!

This is what YOU need:
1.Urban Decay primer potion...or ANY primer will do! If you do not have the primer, you can use the NYX Shadow base, which is same as primer, except it is a eye shadow cream base. ( I love it)
2. Green shadow from Stila island of Fiji collection pallete (limited summer edition) IF you don't ave green by Stila, that's OK! You can use any green eye shadow!!! Like M.A.C, Revlon cream shadow pallete is nice too, it has a little shimmer to it.
3.  Palladio black liquid eye liner
4. Any mascara, I dont have mascara on for this look because I avoided mascara that day. But you can top it off with mascara!!!


  • You first apply the primer, then apply the green eye shadow, you can keep blending until you get the color you want. I wanted a very light sea green look, so I made mine light.
  • Then after you are done blending, go over your eyes with the liquid eye liner. (you can wing it if you'd like. or make it thick. I preferred it to be thin line, looking natural.)


  • I also applied some concealer under the eyes, because since I have dark features my under eye circles can get bad, especially if I do not get enough sleep. So I apply my under eye concealer. It is by PHYSICIANS FORMULA! Its only like $5.99! And physicians formula is a good brand, does not have any harmful chemicals that will effect that thin skin that is under the eye area.

HIGHLIGHT AND CONTOURING your FACE!!!

I always use Kim K's picture and see how she contours her face, because I know her makeup artists do such a superb job on her. Make her look flawless!
One thing I love about this picture is that it shows where to highlight and where to contour!

When you high light, that makes your features stand out and when you counture that makes your face shape stand out and also it sculpts your face into what YOU want it to look like. Kind of like an illusion, but hey its make up and make up does wonders!

I know Kim Kardashian uses all different kinds of products on her face, more of M.A.C and Make up forever products.

I actually have my high light and contour from LORAC
And my other bronze highlight is also by Tarte.



MY OBSESSION!!!

I love the this miniature Sephora by O.P.I nailpolishes
I got these from Sephora just for $7.99
It was a summer collection so I picked it up last year (2012), I hope they will have more colors like these this year!!!
My favorite color was pink and tan!


Light Natural Everyday Makeup for Eyes

HEY DOLLS!!! 
So this is how I do my eye makeup, its just a natural every day look. 

I first put on moisturizer on my face. I use Cetaphil face lotion. Apply my M.A.C loose powder all over my face and add some Covergirl pink blush on cheek bones (you can get it at Walmart, K mart any drug store!)

The products I have are:
1. Palladio liquid eye liner
-you can buy it from Sally Beauty Supply and the color is black.
2. Bronze eye pencil by sephora, its the nano pencil only for $5.00!
3. Urban decay eye pallet, color is half baked
-I got mine from Sephora! 
4. CoverGirl eye pallet color is light brown.
- You can get it from walmart, find any brown and tan shades.
5. Urban Decay Primer potion

I do not have any mascara on because Its supposed to be a very natural look, and I decided not to wear any mascara.


  1. First I add my primer all over my eye lids and bottom lashes area.
  2. I then start to add Half baked by sephora and blend it in all over the eye lid
  3. After that is on all over, I apply some brown color from my CoverGirl pallet, I blend until I get the color I desire.
  4. After I blend it all, and get the color I want, I add little bit of the tan shade on top to make it more natural and give it a tan-ish glow shine.
  5. Once I am done with my eye shadow blending, I add the liquid eye liner and and I do not make it dramatic or give a wing, I just add it on the lash line and make sure that it is the way my eye is shaped, so I make it like almond shape.
  6. Once I am done with the liquid eye liner, I focus on the bottom lash line
  7. I color inside the waterline and also on the inner and outer corners of my eyes, to give it that bronze pop.you can keep coloring it and make it dark or you can just add one layer, it depends on how light or dark you want it. I make sure I color it 3 times, so I can get that bronze shade on the bottom lash and waterline. I love bronze!

I HOPE THIS HELPS FOR THOSE WHO DO NATURAL EYE MAKE UP DAILY AND LOVE A NATURAL LOOK :)

Benefits of WALNUTS (Walnut Facial Scrub)


EAT WALNUTS THEY'RE GOOD FOR YOU!
Help hair grow. eyelashes grow, skin glow, and keep your body healthy!

Walnuts are mainly a rich source of vitamin B and E
They contain omega 3- fatty acids which is the essential fat that we should consume. The fact is that omega-3 fats are healthy fats.

Walnut oil is good for dry skin since it contains linoleic acid and it can make your skin look radiant and have a youthful glow

HOW TO MAKE THE FACIAL:

  • Fresh cup of yogurt
  • Add about 1/2 cup walnuts
  • Crush the walnuts, don't make them dust, but make it like they are very tiny but crunchy and add them in the fresh cup of yogurt. Mix it all very well!!!
Leave the facial on for 20 mins and scrub in a circular motion all over face (Avoid eye area)

Just wait until 20 mins and wash your face with lukewarm or cold water. 

You will feel very fresh! And see a difference!
