DIY Peacock Earrings

Late last night I decided to make some feather earrings. I think they came out Good. I need some more practice but I will be making more for sure.
What you will need

Feathers, Pliers, Wire, and Findings. 
I found all of these at Micheal's 

I'm going to TRY and explain how I made them
Step 1-First decided how long you want the earrings, I wanted them long

Step 2- then pluck the feathers off

Step 3- Taking style (24 Gauge) wire and start wrapping the wire around the stem of the feather 

 Continue... wrapping the wire, it took some time to get the hang of wrapping the wire


 Step 5- Once you reach the top of the steam stop 

Step 6 & Step 7- Add the fish hook aka finding 

At this point with the extra wire you want to twist the wire going back down like you did in the beginning.

Step 8- Taking your pliers, bend the wire close so that you don't have any extra wire poking out
and your done. It shouldn't take too long it depends on the person, but it is simple to make.

My First Wash n Go

Today I wanted to rock a Wash n Go, I was happy with the way it turned out. Not sure if it will be an everyday thing but I will wear it out more often.

Natural Hair-Deep Conditioner

Late Last night I decided to wash my hair. Since I was feeling lazy I decided to mix the products. I'm not sure if it made a big different, but it is soft. I ended up mixing Shea Moisture Deep Treatment Masque and Hair Mayonnaise. I applied the mayo to the scalp and the masque to my hair. and massage them in. After 30 mins I use my Denman brush and detangle my hair.



  As you can see from the brush I had some shredding, which is about 2 weeks worth. Yeah I know I should detangle every week but I like doing after 2 weeks.

Tea Tree Oil Benefits

I know some people don't know what Tea Tree Oil is but there are a lot of benefits to this Oil.Tea Tree is a pale yellow color to nearly clear a natural oil  used for both medical and cosmetics reasons.Tea  Tree oil can be used to help deal with  medical issues like fungus, bacteria, or virus infections. It does help with bad breath, plaque, sore throat. I started using Tea Tree oil because my nose piercing wasn't healing the right way and was causing a small bump to appear on my nose. After a few weeks the bump was gone.

Now after going natural I notice everyone was talking about how they used tea tree oil in their hair so I started adding it to my hair moisture spray and believe me when I say its really does make my hair feel soft and fresh. So I picked up some Giovanni hair shampoo and conditioner with Tea Tree Oil, I will do a review on that later. 

After having good results with my hair, I started using it on my acne. It helps kill the bacteria and dry out the pimple and by morning its pretty much gone. I really like this stuff I'm pretty much out of this oil so I will be hitting my GNC up soon. You should always ask a doctor before using anything new specially this because some people can be allergic to this oil. Before I use this on my skin I dilute it with water because its very strong.
Question- Have you used Tea Tree Oil? and if so How?

Maybelline Gel Liner


Maybelline Eyestudio
 I love this liner
I brought this on sale  I picked up blackest black and brown. 
The texture is smooth  and easy to apply. A brush comes with the liner
but I just use my Sigma SS266. The brush seems more like a lip brush than a eyeliner brush.
It doesn't just come off in one wipe, you have to use a makeup remover to get this off. I think this is a must have liner!

L'Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes

I've been wearing this mascara for aleast 2 months now and I have to say its OK. Its the only mascara I've been wearing so I can't compare it to any other mascara. I don't really like wearing mascara so I don't know the ins and out when buying them, however after using this I have a clue of what I like and don't like.



Description "Each lash looks 3x thicker, Millionizer brush (multitude of bristles separate lashes) Excess wiper- removes excess mascara, no overload, and no clumps."


I like that a lot of product doesn't come out. It does dry really quick so you have to apply it really fast. Some days it goes on too thick and/or clumpy.The wand for me is too big I want to be able to apply it by sections with this wand I can't. I always get product on my face or lid. I 'm going to keep wearing it because I hate wasting makeup and I won't be throwing this out after 3 months.
