A Day of Fuchsia


Hey everyone! So today I posted a video of this look and it's just a natural look, but with a pop of Fuchsia. I personally LOVE fuchsia and I think it looks great and all skin complexions. The eye makeup is just my everyday eye look that is really simple to do.

List of Products I used:
UD Primer Potion
UD Naked Pallet: Naked, Buck, and Virgin
Rimmel Scandal Eyes Mascara
UD Supercurl Curling Mascara
Revlon PhotoReady Concealer in #001 Fair
Sheer Cover Concealer in Light/Medium
Maybelline Shine Free Loose Powder in #02
Benfit Hoola Bronzer
Benefit High Beam
Tarte Starlet Blush
EOS Lip Balm in Strawberry Fizz
Wet n Wild Lip Pencil in Fab Fuchsia
MAC Lipstick in Girl About Town


I must say that I was really impressed with the Wet n Wild Lip Pencil. The color pay off was really good and if you wear it just by itself it lasts a good amount of time. Plus it has a really nice matte finish and it's only $0.99! I'm sorry but that is such a steal lol. But I paired it with MAC's Girl About Town which is one of my favorite lipsticks. I normally wear it by itself but I decided to pair the two together. Also I HATE Rimmel's Scandal Eyes Mascara. Ugh it is way too clumpy and the formula is way too wet so that's why I had to use my UD mascara as well. I really don't recommend that Mascara.

Ganache Goodness

Hey Everyone! So today I wanted to whip something up that would be simple, but delicious. So here's what I decided to make :)


So these little babies are Yellow Cupcakes with whipped Ganache on top. YUM! I've made yellow cupcakes and ganache before, but I never combined the two. I usually top the yellow cupcakes with chocolate butter cream. Anyways, they turned out really good. The ganche was very lightweight, but savory and it went so well with moist cupcakes.


I'm going to make a tutorial on this recipe on my YouTube channel so please stay tuned for that! The recipe is pretty easy so if you're looking for something simple and delicious this is for you. I didn't come up with the recipe myself so I will put the link for the Yellow Cupcakes here and put link for the ganache here.

I hope you enjoyed this quick little blog and stay tuned for the tutorial. Stay Sweet!
