Two Ingredient Cupcakes!

Two ingredients...did I read that right? Yes, yes you did. I didn't say that these were healthy, but they are delicious and so easy it's ridiculous.

For the cupcakes I took a box of Pillsbury Funfetti Cake mix and added a 12-ounce can of Sprite. Mix up and spoon about a 1/4 cup of the mixture into cupcake liners. Bake at 360 degrees Fahrenheit for about 15 minutes. So easy right?!

To make them a little prettier and (extra tasty,) I picked up some store-bought frosting then seperated it into two bowls. I then dyed one lavender and another light blue then put each into a ziplock bag, cut off a corner and piped icing onto each little cake.

They turned out so yummy, light and fluffy–not to mention, I couldn't believe how easy it was.

My Daily Essentials: Makeup

 My morning routines consist of rolling out of bed, grabbing coffee and breakfast, then makeup and clothing time! Within my makeup routine, I have my daily essentials–products that are 

vital in getting me out the door while still looking my best all day.

(From top left going clockwise) 

1. Revlon Colorstay 24 Hour Foundation (150 Buff): *Holy grail product alert* I don't know how it covers and blends so well while still staying put (mind you, shine-free) throughout the ENTIRE day without ever breaking out me out! I don't know how it works and I don't care, I am just happy it does.

2. Physicians Formula Conceal Rx (Fair Light): This stuff is some serious business right here. With the consistency of a thick paste it conceals with ease and doesn't budge once it sets.

3. The Body Shop Bronzing Powder (02 Fair Matte): Most shade of bronzer are too intense or ruddy looking for my fair skin. However, this shade is PERFECT for my fair skin ladies out there! It's pretty light and not too pigmented allowing easy blending for a natural glow.

4. NARS Blush (Orgasm): A cult classic, this shimmering beauty affords the perfect natural peachy-pink glow and works on just about any skin tone! After all, there is a reason why it has a cult following.

5. L'Oreal Lash Out Butterfly Effect Mascara (Black): I rarely go a day without mascara, it ties a makeup look together and makes everything look more polished. Plus, the tips of my lashes are blond so mascara is a must for when I want to look pulled together.

6. Maybelline Define A Brow (Light Taupe): This is like mascara for me–having filled in brows just pulls a look together and looks more polished. I don't do a ton of filling in, I like to just enhance the shape of my brows a bit.

7. L'Oreal Super Slim Infalliable Liquid Liner (Black): I reach for this liner whenever I don't want to bother with smudging pencils or time-consuming cream liners (which, to be honest, is most days.) It's pen-like shape features a very fine tip making it a breeze to apply in a pinch. No smudging or budging here, just clean liquid lines that stay put all day.

8. Maybelline Dream Touch Lumi Highlighting Concealer (Ivory): I talked about this product all of the time. It brightens the under eye beautifully, no matter if you stayed up too late watching Netflix, without weighing your eyes down or settling into fine lines!

9. Rimmel Stay Matte Powder (Natural): To set my new face in place, the Rimmel Stay Matte Powder comes to the rescue. Never looking cakey, this powder locks everything in place and gives my face the nice matte look that I am always wanting.

Manicure Monday || Blue Elephant

Hey Loves!

I am back with a Manicure Monday post. This one is lovingly titled: "Blue Elephant" by my roommate when I questioned her for a possible title.

This lovely ZOYA shade is a sophisticated blue grey which I think is oh so chic. It's a nice departure from the brights and pastels I've been wearing this season–plus it goes with everything! The best part of this polish is that it was nearly opaque in ONE coat! Impressive for sure.


What do you think of grey on nails?
