Hi ya Gorgeous!
Happy Saturday!  Today, I have a spunky hairstyle to help you style your spring break hair from a plain pony tail to something a bit more "up" and fun!

To achieve Rowan Blanchard's 90's retro inspired double topknots created by celebrity hairstylist Laurie Heaps:

1. Use White Sands Liquid Texture Medium Thermal Spray on damp hair for shine and hold and roughly blow dry hair.

 

"This is my go to product for hold and shine," says Laurie.

 

Tip: White Sands Liquid Texture Medium allows the brush to glide through hair without catching, thus achieving a flat iron type effect full of volume and shine with just a blow dryer and round brush in hand.

 

2. Part hair down the middle and pull each section up into a pony.

 

3. Apply Kevin Murphy Powder Puff to the length of the pony for texture and grit.

 

4. Twist pony and then twirl into a topknot securing with pins.

 

"This doesn't have to be perfect. Allow pieces of the hair to stray and use your fingers to release any baby hairs around the hairline," explains Laurie. 

 

5. Finish with a light mist of Bumble and Bumble Cityswept Finish Spray.

Who wants to have an at home spa party? I am testing the new bee venom mask from Miss Spa Beauty.

How to use Urban Decay eyeshadows & eyeliners from Ulta Beauty 21 Days of Beauty event for prom looks

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Oh the fun of being in Atlanta during the spring! There is so much in bloom! Flowers everywhere and wee buds on trees! True, it has made for an amazing amount of pollen, though the beauty is worth it!

Speaking of bright colors and beauty, I received a kit of Urban Decay eye shadows, eye liners, and eye shadow primer to play with for spring break and prom looks!

 It has been a long time since I have had any Urban Decay products as I usually use Smashbox and Make Up For Ever. I'm so impressed with the pigment load and wearability of these shadows and liners!

Let me show you some more!
