To finish of this Retro look, have a try at this make up tutorial!! If you want to make a bold statement!!
which I definitely recommend!
What you will need:
3 different eye shadows, I chose
Purple
Blue
Yellow
Black eye Shadow
Eye Primer or Concealer or Foundation
Angle Brush
Applicator
Q- Tips
Gel Liner
Step 1: Apply foundation/eye primer/concealer all over && around your eye area.
Step 2: Using your angel brush apply the Blue on the bottom eye lid, just below your lashes. Don't fret if you make a mess you can clean in up later.
Step 3: Take your applicators && apply the yellow shadow to the apple of your eye lid.
Step 3: Apply a bit of black eye shadow to the corner of your eye. This will stop your eye liner from sliding off. It also adds definition to the eye.
Step 4: Taking your angle brush, apply the purple in the crease of your eye. Create a triangle from your crease toward your brow, bringing down to the outside corner of your eye. Much like what we do when we do the winged eye liner.
Step 5: Apply Gel liner to the top && bottom, thinly.
Step 6: Apply Mascara to Finish. You can use a Q-tip to clean off around your eye area.
There you have it !!! A Beautiful 70's inspired look! I love it! #COLORFUL

Looking at this 70's inspired look, all I can think about is going out && dancing under a disco ball to the grooviest music.
&& I think that's exactly what they did in the 70's
The 70's were the days of pet rocks, mood rings, water beds, crystals, incense, and wild color.
A Decade filled with Fun people enjoying life to the fullest a midst all the terrible things happening around them. Economic Free-fall, Oil Crisis, an end of War yet conflict with in countries.
Does that sound familiar?? Different decade yet we still face the same issues as they did back in the day.
The point I would love to make to you today readers, is never get caught up in all the bad things in our lives. Yes they need our attention, but we also need to step back and enjoy the life we are given to the fullest. I know, I know that was really cliche of me but its a cliche because its true. Its time we filled our lives with peace, comfort, joy && love. Face our issues with those weapons rather than weapons of anger, frustration && violence.
Thank you for taking this #out_of_sight! trip with me. This decade week has been a blast!!! Thank you to those who lived in the 20's, 60's && 70's. Thank you for the great fashion trends, music && most of all the brilliant examples && lessons, that we can still learn from today!..
With Never Ending Love

Send in your awesome "BONUS FIND" through any of theses social media platforms!
This weeks BONUS FIND, its brought to you by ME!!! I've used it! && it is really really good!
What you need :
Liquid foundation or concealer
Colorless or white nude butter moisturizer / body /
Transparent gel of aloe Vera (optional)
Toothpicks / brush
container
How to prepare:
Put the required amount of your foundation or concealer in the container. Add equal parts of body butter or a thick moisturizer . The moisturizer acts as an emollient and helps the makeup stick to the skin. When added to your foundation or concealer , it helps prevent wrinkles and dryness. Now mix with a toothpick or the end of your makeup brush to dissolve any lumps . Add more rings if you want better coverage for stains . I think if you can get your hands on an aqueous cream, it would be great . It is a medicated cream very well suited for dry skin and does not leave greasy. You can add a few drops of aloe Vera gel to make this recipe and nourishing skin. Aloe Vera also give a matte finish to the skin. This recipe works just as good as expensive primers available at the makeup counter . Also, keep in the refrigerator to avoid consistency thinning . In addition, it will have a cooling effect on your skin when you apply it.
