Wonder Woman Outfit - Maxim Halloween Party 2015

Hey everyone! 

So I don't know how many pics are too many to post from one night on social media so I'm going to post them here! lol!
Last night I dressed as Wonder Woman for the 2015 Maxim Halloween Party! It wasn't the most original costume idea but I loved being her for the night!
The party was held at Chateau D'Or (in Bel Air) It is truly one of my all time favorite homes! I was a part of an Akon video that we shot there years back and I'm so in love with the property! I was so excited when we pulled up! It was beyond amazing! there was a graveyard, a haunted house, fortune tellers, photo booths/red carpets, the best food and drink and a performance/club area - if my feet weren't killing me from the get go I would have definitely done more walking around but I spent most of the night in the club area... not to worry: there was a rocky horror performance as well as a performance by Nick Jonas - who was amazing! I never knew much about the Jonas Brothers but I'm loving his new material! Plus ladies we can't deny he's pretty cute!
Anyway, here are the pictures!

 

 

I had such a blast!!! 

Lots of Love,

VIDEO - Revlon Colorstay Foundation: Review, Demo and Test

HEY Everyone! 

Sorry I missed a week last week as I had promised to post a video every week! 

What can I say... my intentions are good but then life keeps getting in the way! 

ANYWAY 

Here is my latest video! 

It is a Review, Demo and Test on the Revlon 24hr wear Colorstay Foundation!

I use the Oily/Combination version (dry skin version also available) and my colour is 240 medium beige!

Before applying my foundation I set a cream contour on my cheek bones, temples forehead and down the sides of my nose and I colour corrected with NYX colour correcting concealer in Orange.. I used this to combat both dark patches and redness under my eyes, on the nostril area, chin and wherever I had a blemish, I then applied the foundation on top (without rubbing in these products) and used my real technique expert face brush to buff in not only the foundation but also the colour correcting concealer and cream contour. Hence I started with the concealed/lighter areas of my face first and then moved on to the areas that had the cream contour. 

Off Camera I then applied my ELF blush/bronzer duo in Antigua and set everything in place with a loose powder (mineral rice setting powder by youngblood cosmetics). 

Please remember to subscribe to my channel and a thumbs up is always nice too :)

HOMEMADE Ice Cream

Hey Blog Readers, 

So did you know it is really easy to make a healthy version of ice cream at home (granted you have to like the taste of Banana ice cream)... Well I didn't know just how easy it was until a couple of weeks ago! I saw a picture post about home made banana ice cream on (I think it was) Brooke Benson's page 'Shorething fitness' (follow her on instagram or facebook for daily fitness and health motivation) So I thought I would give it ago!
AND to my DELIGHT it worked out.. YUM!

It's as simple as 1, 2, 3

1. You cut up banana and put it in the freezer for at least two hours! 
2. You blend it until it creates a paste in a blender or smoothie maker! 
3. You scoop it out, put it in a bowl and enjoy! 

It sounds like mushy banana but believe me it doesn't taste like it! 

I added Honey and Peanut Butter to mine and it reminded me of Ben & Jerry's without the guilt! (no lie!!) 

 

 

 

 

You may need to use a fork to make a paste and stop it sticking to the sides (when blender if OFF!) 

 

  

(to make it look more presentable/like real ice cream use an ice cream scoop to round the mixture and even add sprinkles;) 

It's cooling and yummy just like ice cream but it's a healthy option and it cures a sweet tooth! ;) 

Try it for yourselves I think you'll be pleasantly surprised (just like I was!) 

Lots of Love,
