To celebrate the season in a creative way, I came up with a nail design that was so quick and easy I wanted to share it with you guys! The products I used are listed below:

As you guys may know, I posted a video on my youtube channel (glamourista16) showcasing my current top favorite outfits for the winter season! I featured multiple pieces of clothing from Windsor, a great clothing and accessories store that has such cute stuff-AND it's inexpensive! 

Hey everyone! Okay, so the Holidays are sneaking up, and you have no idea what to buy her! Take a deep breath-you're in luck! I have created a list of my suggestions, including a short description and links as to where you can buy the products! I hope this helped, and happy shopping!

1. Korres Vitamin E 10-Color Pencil Kit ($32.50):

These eyeliners are seriously AMAZING! She will not thank you enough! If the girl you're buying for is a makeup junkie, you can't go wrong with this kit! A single eyeliner from Korres is $16, so this limited edition set of 10 eyeliners is a HUGE deal, when you're paying for the price of 2, and getting 10! Colors range from purple to blue to black. Great for a variety of ages that love to play around with makeup!

2. Sephora Manicure Set ($30):

This portable and practical manicure set is a must have for those nail polish hoarders out there! If she is very into painting her nails all of the time, she will fall in love with this set! It includes 5 essential multi purpose tools that will keep those nails of hers in tip top shape!


3. Gap Lip balm ($4.50):
*available at checkout counters of Gap stores
These lip balms are my absolute favorite, and are perfect for anyone at all ages! These make a great stocking stuffer, or extra little gift! They go on so smoothly, and last a pretty long time! What sets these lip balms apart is that they have a distinct smell-and to me they all smell AMAZING! They have a variety of flavors including mint, mango, and even melon (my personal fave!) They have them available to test out at your local Gap counters so you don't have to guess at the scents!

4. J.Crew Loop Scarf ($49.50):

J.Crew is my favorite place to get scarves these days, as they are so comfortable, versatile, and a great accessory to any outfit! The scarf I provided in the link above is one that I own, and because it's muted, I can wear with just about anything! You can wear them in so many ways-from a basic scarf to even a tube top! Loop Scarves come in a variety of colors, and you can get them at many places-not just J.Crew! They also come in a range of prices, so you are bound to find one for her in your price range! Especially with winter approaching, she'll find this very useful!

Hey you! I know what you're probably thinking.. she's got a youtube, twitter, dailybooth, blogtv... and now a blog? Crazy talk, right? Ever since before I started youtube, I'd always thought it'd be fun to have a blog. A blog where I can share my interests with the world about my latest beauty obsessions to my beauty rejections. At the time, I thought it'd be useless, as I had a hard time contemplating how I would get my blog out there for people to see. After starting youtube, I've been more and more intrigued to create one. Now that I finally did-I'm really excited to see what I can do with it!

Now, I may be new to blogging but I have had a domain website before, prior to starting youtube. Flashback to my 8th grade years, my best friend Ashley and I decided it would be fun to make a MySpace layout site as a resource for MySpace users that included page backgrounds, graphics, banners, icons, etc. It started out slow, but we gradually grew into an over 10,000 friend MySpace. To go along with the MySpace, we bought ourselves a domain website to make an easy way for people to find our works and to showcase our creativity while doing so. With endless and dedicated hours, we taught ourselves not only Photoshop, but ftp and coding to create our website.

As time carried on, we began to spend less and less time on the site. What once consumed our days and nights was now not as exciting. Don't get me wrong- I still absolutely LOVE creating graphics, but I have moved on from that chapter and use my talents in a new light. I now enjoy taking artsy photographs, along with editing them to an extent until I am finally pleased. I also still create banners here and there for my fellow youtuber's who are partners. I created my background layout on my own channel, but I am limited as I am not a partner .. yet ;).

With my limits taken into consideration, I thought a blog would be the perfect place for me to showcase my work (photography, drawings, graphics) while still connected to the beauty world. So, there you have it- a place where you can expect to find beauty reviews, raves & rants, to my personal photography & other artwork. Who knows? I may decide to expand this into a website again instead! I'm unsure of where this may go, though I do hope you come along with me!
