I was looking through my photo albums and realized I totally forgot to post my pics from 4th of July! I celebrated with my bestie at a BBQ. It was pretty chill but we had some good convos going and fireworks are always a plus!! I felt like wearing tennis shoes that day which is rare…had to dust off my Nikes for the day! =]

Makeup Wednesdays: L’oreal Liquid Pencil Eyeliner in Carbon Black.
Hey guys! I decided to start a summer beauty series on my blog. Every Wednesday I will be featuring one of my favorite beauty products. This week I’m gonna start off with my go-to, #1, can’t go without beauty product…eyeliner! If I was on a deserted island and I had to choose one product to bring, eyeliner would definitely be it!
I use L’oreal Liquid Pencil Eyeliner in Carbon Black.
It is seriously the best thing ever made! It lasts all day and I love it because it is super dark and actually provides some contrast for my dark skin tone. Its perfect for a quick winged eyeliner look and is a great alternative to liquid or gel eyeliners and brushes, especially if you need something to take on the go. I am seriously gonna rant and rave about this product because it has never failed me! Go out and try it!
Note: I was a little perplexed at first about how to use it, I thought it was twist up but you will need a pencil sharpener.

Rating: 5 stars
I would also like to give an Honorable Mention to another L’oreal product.
L’oreal Voluminous Smoldering Eyeliner
Its a cool product and is really dark when worn alone. But…it doesn’t last nearly as long and doesn’t work as well over an eye shadow. Its great for a smoky eye look or can even double as a black eye shadow. Also, since the pencil is so large, you will not get as much precision as you would with a smaller pencil.
Rating: 3 stars
Hope you guys enjoyed my first Makeup Wednesday!
P.S. Let me know if you want me to do a post about any specific beauty product and I will see what I can do. =]

DIY: Ombre Hair
So, I finally decided to succumb to the ombre trend! Once I got my weave done, I decided to tackle this style myself instead of going to a hair shop or having someone do it for me.
Before:
I was debating on using a highlighting kit or bleach, but decided to go with the bleach. I used L’oreal Quick Blue with Volume 40 Developer. Both were purchased at Sally’s Beauty Supply.
I got a lil scared when I saw my hair lighten and initially washed it out too early. I had to apply the bleach twice! I would estimate the total application time to be about 20- 30 minutes. I was also scared to get color too close to my face, so I only did the tips..I may decide to get bolder later. ;]
The finished product (After):
I am pretty happy with the results!
Have you ever tried the ombre trend?

Blackfest
These shots were taken last week at an event called Blackfest. It was an outside concert featuring E-40 and Kendrick Lamar and a bunch of other performances. It was a nice lil sunny Sunday.
I’ve fallen in love with pinstripes, I love the way they shape you! Definitely a must-have for the summer!
It was also the day of the solar eclipse. I tried to capture some shots.
