Independence Day Nail Tutorial

Today, I have a very simple red, white, and blue nail tutorial for you all. This look is perfect for those beginners that have a hard time doing all that fancy nail art. So let's just hop right in!

First, pick out your favorite red, white, and blue nail polishes.

Second, Paint all your fingers except your index white. Paint your index finger red.

Lastly, take the blue polish and carefully cover just the tips of your nails. Helpful tip: Instead of moving the brush across your nail, roll your finger and let the brush glide smoothly over top of it.

Wala! A super simple nail design that is perfect for the 4th of July!

My June Beauty Discovery

I don't do many beauty posts, but when I come across a product that I quickly fall in love with, it's hard to keep it to myself. Today I want to tell you guys about this amazing new product that Garnier just came out with and it's their new Skin Renew BB Cream. I've never tried a BB cream before, because I never really understood what it was. I wasn't going to spend big bucks to get one of the high end brand's BB cream, so when I saw this in Walmart for around $11, I grabbed it. 


I was super excited to try it out and let me tell you, I love it. It doubles as a moisturizer and a light weight foundation which I absolutely love for the summertime. Personally, I hate the feeling of foundation on my face during the hot summer days. The light weight foundation in this cream doesn't at all make me feel like I have a layer of gunk on my face. Add a little concealer on top of my break outs and I'm good to go for the day. 


My favorite part about this BB cream is the 15 spf protection. I've become a sunscreen junkie this summer, it's something I have to put on every day with my morning routine. So instead of skipping the sunscreen on your face because you know it will clog your pores, this BB cream has it built right in! 


If any of you are like me and have always wanted to try a BB cream instead of a foundation and don't want to spend the big bucks on a high end brand, check this out. I think I'll definitely be adding this to my permanent summer face routine.  

Have a fabulous Monday!
