Sunday Thoughts (January Review)

Last month has honestly been such a blur. I learnt how to take myself across the northern half of my country and I started college.. who would have thought travelling to Town was so easy?!

With this new air of responsibility I find myself thinking a bit into the future and how my life will be.

I have so many plans and dreams that I wish to come true and while a year or two ago I would have been scared about it all, but right now I'm actually excited!

I'm ready for this world! (or at least I think I am)

Life has such a funny way of working itself out.. It makes you really think that God is actually watching over you and guiding you. Just last year (or two years last year flew by really fast due to exams)

I lost a friend I thought would have be with me til the end and now.. I think I actually found myself two better friends. One being myself and the other, my co-author Angel of Beauty (even though I don't know if she considers me the same way) Together we have way too many plans that we're just itching to make a reality and this blog is one of them (youtube channels are on their way guys!)

In just one month I've cleared up so many insecurities that I had with myself and my life. I can't be more grateful to God for this piece of mind.

January was also the month that I turned 17 (yay me!) which means I will finally be able to drive. As soon as I am comfortable with my school and gym shedule I'll join a driving school and work towards getting my license. This will give me even more responsibility and allow me to explore more. Angel of Beauty and I will be able to meet out more often and I can pass and pick her up from where she lives (she lives a good way from me) I think a lot more can be done when I get my license, especially since I already have a car waiting on me >.<

I'm really excited for this year.. mainly because this is a growing year for me. This year I'll hopefully get more mature and be a bit more involved with the world around me.

I'm excited to see where this goes and I'm happy I have a blog to share these things with.

Sometimes the world can be a bit over bearing.. It's nice to sit and write it out. Hopefully I get more posts out there and produce some more interesting content. Till next time my imaginary readers! Bye

Make Your Lipstick Last Longer!

Hey guys, Elizabeth here to spice up the blog a bit with cool DIYs, beauty tips and more...

Today, my first post is for the gals where I'll just be starting with a very simple, quick and easy beauty tip. And although it's very simple and easy to follow, I've included lots of pictures just for you^_^

Now, as us girls already know, Keeping your lipstick on your lips can be a challenge for a lot of us sometimes. And yes, there are some good long-wear lip products out there on the market that may be a bit ore expensive than regular lip-stick, but today I have here's a trick for you to make your lipstick long-lasting, using your regular lipstick and just about two other items that I guarantee is right there in your house. Well, let's begin shall we!? ---->

Firstly, choose the lipstick that you would like to use, it can be any type or colour lipstick you have/want to wear.

When you have selected your desired lipstick you can go ahead and apply is as usual, whether you apply lip-liner first or not, it's all kewl ;)

Then, you just want to get a roll of TP or soft tissue paper.

You are not going to need to use much of this at all, in fact you'll barely be using any.

Now, you would just need

one single sheet of tissue paper/ tear off one square off of the entire roll and you can set the roll aside because we would only be using that single square.

Now that we have just one square, we just want to find the end and begin to separate the Tpaper in two, by peeling off one ply(layer).

When one of the layers is peeled off, you should now have a very thin ply of paper.

Now, place the thin layer of paper over your lip with the lipstick you applied earlier.Then, you just want to take some loose or pressed powder and pass it over the paper on top of your lips. Note: you can also apply a little of the powder directly on your lips, skipping all the steps that includes the tissue paper. also note that placing it directly over your lip will dull the colour of your lipstick.

Now, especially if you applied the powder directly to your lip, you would want to re-apply your lipstick over the powder to restore the lipstick's colour. This step of re-applying the lipstick is optional for those who did not apply the powder directly to the lip.

Now, after less than two minutes, you can go out and enjoy the longer lasting effect that your lipstick now have. :)

Love you all my beauties! Till next time
