Reason's I'm Watching "Sweet/ Vicious"





On Tuesday, November 15th, Sweet Vicious premeired on MTV, and I was here for every second of it. I began noticing the advertisments for the show, while watching some of my other favorite programs. At first glance, noticed 3 of my favorite qualities in television: comedy, a cause, and 2 female leads. I knew that this was going to be a show worth watching. Sweet Vicious is about 2 college students (Jewels and Ophelia), who also happen to be vigilantes, out to put an end to sexual harrassment and rape on their college campus. The second episode premeired on November 22nd, and if you are still not conviced to give the show a chance, let me give you a few reasons to tune in:

1. Girl Power!
This show is action packed with girl power and strength. I am an advocate for women using their skills and strengths to make a difference in areas often over looked and dominated by the opposite sex. I guess I have the Spice Girls to blame for that! 

Jewels and Ophelia are no punks. The kick butt first and ask questions later, mainly because they already know their victims are guilty!

2. Sheds a light on an important epidemic
Numbers like these are scary to come to terms with. Some people choose to ignore the harsh realities of sexual assault, but "Sweet/ Vicious" is here with an in your face message, letting predators know that we WILL NOT stand for this.

3. The Satirism
There are so many funny moments in this show. Each of the characters bring their own sense of humor, but I have to say that Ophelia is the funniest of the crew. Her quirky comic relief never ceases to amaze me. Paired with that amazing teal hair, she is hands down a breath of fresh air.

4. Brandon Mychal Smith
Look at this gorgeous creature!! He plays Harris, a dedicated law student, and Ophelia's right hand man.  I love when shows give me a bit of eye candy throughout the season, and he is just what the doctor ordered!

Also, can we talk about MTV highlighting the racial profiling Harris received, which is sweeping the nation in episode 2!?




Hopefully you guys will give this show a chance, because it is worth it! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm watching episode 3 as I type this!

Star Crushed Minerals



I first heard about the brand "Star Crushed Minerals" on Instagram. Elenor Barnes aka @Snitchery on Instagram, posted a picture of some swatches on her arm, along with a promo code. From the look of her swatches, I had to try some of these products for myself. 

I hopped onto my computer, went to the website, and began adding things into my cart. I  unintentionally bought the colors of the rainbow and intentionally bought some glitter adhesive (shown below)! 


Left to Right: 
Top Row- Dune Buggy Green, Orchid, Blue Lotus, Aged to Perfection Champagne
 Bottom Row- It's My Party, The Great  Pumpkin,  14K

These shadows are highly pigmented, long lasting, and statement makers! I love that they are a finely  milled mineral formula, because this makes it easier to blend the  colors. 

FINAL  VERDICT: I will definitely be  purchasing more from this company, because not only do  they have amazing products, they also have exceptional customer  service!

If  you haven't  already, try these mineral shadows  for  yourself,  and let your inner unicorn out!

The Balm: Mary-Lou Manizer

If you're addicted to YouTube and makeup like I am, then you already know about The Balm's Mary-Lou Manizer! I have been hearing about this product and watching tutorials with this product in it for years. I have contemplated buying this highlighter so many times,but I always put it off. I finally decided to purchase it after seeing it on Hautelook 3 times. The great thing about Hautelook is that all the items you find on this app and online are discounted, so instead of paying $24 for Mary-Lou, I only paid $12. 50% off? Yes please! 




 I currently have been loving my Morphe M510 to apply highlighters, because it provides a well blended application, and I love the amount of product it picks up.

As you can see, this product is beautiful, and it looks great on dark skin. I cant wait to use this in upcoming makeup tutorials!

Asos WANT-list

Asos has to be one of the trendiest websites today, with their huge range of clothing for women and men no matter their size! Asos is not limited to fashion though. They also sell knick knacks like phone cases and selfie sticks! I have yet to make an Asos purchase, mainly because they are quite expensive, but it's time that I start purchasing higher quality clothing, which requires me to spend a little more. These are just a few pieces and items that have caught my eye and that I have been wanting for a while now!

TONYMOLY Face Mask Overload!

I think I might have a new obsession... Korean face masks!! What drew me to the TONYMOLY face masks in particular has to be their unique and cute packaging. You automatically know what flavor of mask you are getting my looking at the front of the packaging, where you'll find a large cartoon-like picture.
                              

The first mask I tried from this line was the Nutrition Avocado mask I automatically fell in love, because of how simple the mask was to use, and I could not stop laughing at how ridiculous my best friend looked in them.








On the top of each mask, you can see what type of treatment you will be getting from it. These masks are absolutely fool-proof, because they leave behind no mess, and they are so much fun to use.


Although the directions are in Korean, there are pictures that indicate the proper steps to take when using these masks. 

Normally, these masks retail for $3.00 each at ULTA, however I came across a bulk of them for $10.00 on Amazon! What an amazing steal! Of course I had to buy them, and lucky for you all, I linked the masks in the "SHOP THIS POST" section below!

Social Media Numbers | What's the Importance?

"Social media Likes" seem to control today's generation. What I've noticed is girls doing any and everything to have thousands of followers on Instagram. The same thing goes for likes. I believe that this generation cares more about what their followers think of them, rather than their own happiness. 


Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with being influential on social media and gaining a large following. This is something I definitely want for myself. However, I do not think it's okay to make this the center of your universe and compromise who you are to be an Instagram celebrity.


It has even gotten to the point where there are special accounts made to increase one's follow count. My question is, why is it so important to have a plethora of followers on social media? I used to want to have all of these followers as well, but I sat back and wondered, what's the importance? 


We see celebrities, like the Kardashians, and IG models getting paid to post themselves using different products. A lot of the time they are posing in a risque fashion, wearing less than enough clothing to get their followers to purchase these products that may not even work! 



At the end of the day, there's nothing wrong with having a large following, or getting paid for sponsored posts. But, if these posts seem to put you in a compromising situation, sit back and figure out if that is really what you want to do. Why not post positive things that help others and become influencing in that way.
