The Daily Glamour

Hey there fellow quarantinies! Hope you're staying IN and staying SAFE these days. I'm teaching from home for the foreseeable future and I find it helpful and productive to actually get ready everyday (albeit scaled-down from my norm). Today I wanted to play with a few bold lip choices, so I thought it would be a great chance to post a Which Lippy? for you. So what's your go-to when it comes to jazzing up a really simple eye look?

OPTION 1: MATTE BRIGHT PINK
Maybelline Color Sensational Matte Lipstick in Mesmerizing Magenta

OPTION 2: SATIN FIREY ORANGE
L’Oréal Rouge Signature Matte Lip Stain in I Amaze

OPTION 3: GLOSSY SOFT RED
NYX Butter Gloss in Apple Crisp

Also, just throwing this out there, but I've been LOVING the newish Maybelline Falsies Lash Lift Mascara. Soooooo good!

Been meaning to post this for a solid WEEK! Damn life gets in the way of my fun sometimes. I moved recently and uncovered some palettes I haven't used in a while. Just felt the urge to create a more dramatic look than I wear on the regular. Really love how this turned out!

Here are a few of the key products:
ColourPop Dream St Palette
Essence What the Fake! Mascara
NYX Lip Lingerie Pushup Lipstick in Teddy
Milani Baked Blush in Petal Primavera
Revlon Ultra HD Lip Color in Arabica
Clinique Pretty Easy Eyeliner Pen in Black

OOTD for a dreary and cold Wednesday (posted a day late!). This little heart sweatshirt from Old Navy has really been a staple this winter. Pairs so great with my denim jacket (not pictured, but from Target) and black pants (Lane Bryant, of course!). And I have worn the HECK out of these animal print TOMS. Hope you're staying warm and dry ☔

I haven't created a Which Lippy post in ages! So this is a more simple version with just 2 choices. So which lippy would you choose to wear with this dramatic, warm-toned eye?

Simple and soft FOTD! I'm linking a few of the key products down below (all available at Ulta Beauty). That lipgloss has become my staple, always-in-my-purse, product. The texture is AMAZING and the color is a PERFECT glossy n**e. Hope you all are having a lovely week

Happy 2020, y'all 🎉 Thought I'd share my OOTD. Just had some meetings at school before the semester starts, so I needed casual and comfy, but nice. What are your favorite items to wear at work?

I meant to post these last week, but time just got away. Here are a few cold-weather outfits that I was sporting during the Halloween-week cold snap we had here in Texas. I love, love, love fall & winter clothes

Another casual 👚 This time I'm featuring some thrifted finds! My mother found the camo tshirt hoodie at a garage sale and the jeans are from a plus size resale shop in Burleson, Texas (it's called Fancy's Plus Size). Yay for second hand! The other 2 items are listed below.

Evening lovelies! I wanted to share one of my favorite simple, but glamorous looks with you. I've had this eyeshadow single for years and it never disappoints. Because it's a duochrome, the shadow can be packed on the lid for one color and buffed into the crease for another. So simple, but it looks way more complex! This is a fantastic look for green or hazel eyes. Here are the key winning products for this look...and they're all !

Well this is something I never do, but I felt like sharing my OOTD 😲 My style is simple and comfy. I'm a college art instructor, so I don't go dressy, but I do like to look nice!

All the hair! It's a chore, but if I put in the effort, it is low maintenance for the next 5 or 6 days. These are my favorite tools for hair that is LONG and THICK and naturally textured. Gotta tame this mane!

I turned 40 today! It was a lovely and relaxing birthday. Worked from home and visited with family, so I just did a super simple face. And I felt radiant! Love to all of you beautiful folks
