Product Review: Holiday Christmas Glitter Nail Polish Lacquer: Studio M

-

It is that time again for another nail polish review 💅! Since Christmas just passed and New Year's is coming up, I thought this would be a great time to choose Christmas and New Year's nail polish colors to review. So, the nail polishes I will be reviewing are the Studio M Nail Lacquers. 
Studio M Nail Lacquer: Glitter Wonderland

 This is a beautiful color with a lot of glitter; it is a dark purple plum color with a lot of red and blue flecks of glitter. 



The color is beautiful and it really suits my skin color. The formula is watery though, and it took around 2-3 coats to get the color opaque. This polish also did not dry fast, so I had to use a top coat to make it dry, so this is not a polish that you can wear without a top coat.
This is how the color looks:

Studio M Nail Lacquer: Holiday Splendor

This is a beautiful holiday green color; it has a Christmas feel to it, so it is perfect for the end of the year. This green is a teal forest green with a lot of green, blue, and orange flecks of glitter.




The formula for this polish is similar to the purple shade; it is watery, but I only needed 2 coats to get the color opaque. Unlike with the purple shade, this color dried fast so I did not need to apply a top coat with it. 
Here is how this shade looks:

I wore these polishes for four days to see how they would hold up. The green shade that I wore without a top coat held up just as well as the purple shade, which needed a top coat. So the green shade is like a nail polish and a top coat combined, which is excellent, and a sign that it is a good quality polish.
This is how these nail polishes looked after a four day wear test:

Final Thoughts: The colors of these polishes are very nice. I like that they both have a lot of shine and glitter. My favorite of the two colors was the purple shade because it really complemented my skin color, but the green shade was easier and smoother to apply. I also felt that the green shade had much more glitter, so I think the green shade is better quality than the purple shade. Formula-wise, I prefer the green shade, but when it comes to color, the purple was by far my favorite. All-in-all, I really enjoyed both nail polishes.

Having Trouble Losing Weight? Maybe You Have Worms In Your Stomach Causing Weight Gain - Intestinal Worms

This might be very shocking to you, but we live in a world full of parasites, and they survive better than almost every other creature that exists. These parasites cause all kinds of problems for living creatures, including weight loss and weight gain. The kinds of problems they can cause often depends on where they live in or on your body. When they live in your stomach and intestines, they are called intestinal worms, and they can make you gain weight or be unable to lose weight.

"Intestinal worms, also known as parasitic worms, are one of the main types of intestinal parasites. Common types of intestinal worms include: Flatworms, which include tapeworms and flukes.

Product Review: Denman Brush On Straightened and Curly Natural Ethnic Hair - A Brush for All Hair Types

-
Image
Hello everyone! I am going to share with you a new product that I discovered months ago that has been a game changer for me. I sometimes get asked about what I do to my hair to make it look so nice, so I am going to answer part of this question here today. If you follow me on Instagram 👉 (dlsbeauty), you know that I change my hair color often, sometimes every week, so seeing this, I can understand how people are shocked at how healthy my hair looks. So today, I am going to share with you all one of my best kept hair care secrets: The Denman brush.



I think it has been almost two years now since I decided to stop straightening my hair all the time. I also stopped perming my hair and decided to just grow it out, but it has been very difficult to find ways to style my hair in easy fast ways (wash and go), without it looking frizzy or an afro, or without losing a ton of hair. I want my curls to show and look shiny and healthy, like Shirley Temple kind of curls; for women of color, this is …

Product Review: Lakme Eyeconic Kajal Eyeliner

Review: Lakme Eyeconic Kajal In Black
I love Indian kajal liners, so I tend to go through a lot of them and collect them. The reason I like Indian kajal liners so much is because I find them to be darker than most drugstore liners, so they show up well even on brown or darker skin; they don't irritate my sensitive eyes, when most drugstore liners that I have tried do, and they tend to have a much smaller ingredient list than most drugstore liners. Indian kajal liners are often made with some natural ingredients like almond oil and castor oil. There are many kajal liners available in India and in the U.S., and many U.S. brands even make their own version of a kajal liner. One of the most popular kajal liners in India is the Lakme Eyeconic kajal, so this is why I wanted to review this one first for you. So, let's begin! 😅
When it comes to eyeliner, one of the first things that people look for is whether or not it is smudgeproof. Almost all eyeliners you can buy will say they are …

Beautiful Red Shiny Lip Gloss Brown Eye Makeup Eyeshadow Step-By-Step Tutorial

-
Image
I am going to tell you how I got this makeup look step-by-step! Let's begin! 💖

1. Apply an eyeliner sealer. An eyeliner sealer acts as an eye primer, but it does even more. An eyeliner sealer can be applied over eyeliner to help reduce smudging; it can be mixed with any eyeshadow in order to turn it into an eyeliner; it can make poorly pigmented eyeshadows very pigmented, and you can even use an eyeliner sealer to get glitter to adhere to your eyes.

2. Apply a brown glittery eyeshadow. 



The eyeshadow I used is the top brown shade in the Korean Tonymoly Shimmer Triple Dome eyeshadow palette in #08 Romantic Khaki. I did not apply a base shadow.


3. Apply black eyeliner on the upper lash line, but don't apply it at the very inner corner. Also, apply the black liner on the lower lash line, but only apply it from the outermost part of the eye, up to the middle of the eye; don''t apply your liner past the middle of the eye or at the inner corner. 




The black eyeliner that I used w…

5 Tips for Preventing, Reducing Acne - 4 Best Products, Recommendations For Acne

-
Image
Acne is something we all get sometimes, but there are some products, and simple things that you can do that can greatly improve and reduce your acne.



1. Don't reapply makeup or touch up your makeup while you are out and about. The reason for this is because the moment you walk outside your home, germs and bacteria from the air get all over your face and exposed skin; this is why your skin smells bad after you have been outside for hours. When you take your makeup out and apply it to your now dirty skin, you contaminate your makeup, so everytime you use it again after this, you put more and more germs on your face, which can cause breakouts and even rashes.



2. Don't touch your face, even when you are at home. The reason is because Staph bacteria can live on many surfaces in your home, from counter tops, door handles, to objects you touch all the time, like your alarm clock, towel, or razor. 

"Family members of children who have staph infections are more likely than other peop…

Product Review: Mary Kay Eye Color Eyeshadow Palette - U.S. Brand Mineral Makeup Not Made In China - FREE GIVEAWAY!

-
Image
Recently, I was searching for some new eyeshadow palettes to try since I love them. Eyeshadow palettes have been my favorite makeup product for about the last year and half, so when I buy makeup lately, this is what I usually buy, unless I need something for a video I am making. Unfortunately, looking for new palettes made me aware that many U.S. brands are now making their eyeshadow palettes in China, though much of their other makeup products are still made in the U.S.

Hunting for new mineral eyeshadow palettes made in the U.S. led me to look at less popular or less well-known brands; brands that aren't all over Youtube or talked about heavily by beauty bloggers. I only found about a handful of brands that fit the bill, and Mary Kay was one of them. Fortunately, I have a friend who works as a Mary Kay consultant, so I reached out to her and she kindly sent me several Mary Kay eyeshadow palettes to try out for free. I plan to review and swatch all of the palettes she sent me, but …

Feeling Sick? Maybe It Is Not Your Food, But The Purified Bottled Water You Drink

-
Image
A few days ago, something happened that was so shocking to me, that I decided to do research on it, and now I am writing this article about it. So, about 3 days ago, I drank a glass of purified spring water that I had in my refrigerator. I didn't eat anything, I was just thirsty because it is hot now and it is summertime. So, when I got sick from the water, I was sure it was the water because I was fine all day, and I got sick pretty quickly, right after drinking that glass of water. I got a sudden headache, my stomach started hurting, and I noticed a ringing in my ears. This prompted me to go online, and research purified water using scientific scholarly journals. In the studies I found, scientists analyzed our purified water, and they found several harmful things in it, so this is what they found:

1. Bacteria



Bacteria was found in several batches of purified water that was analyzed in several scientific studies; this is water that would end up in our grocery stores for sale, basic…

Eyebrow Threading - To Thread Or Not To Thread?

-
Image
There are quite a few ways to shape your eyebrows today, and eyebrow threading is quite popular for this. After all, your eyebrows make your makeup look and they shape your entire face; your eyebrows can speak as much as your eyes and they are just as noticeable, so today, let's talk about the pros and cons of eyebrow threading, so that you can decide for yourself if you want to do it.
Pros
There are far more pros than cons to eyebrow threading. Firstly, out of all the different ways you can shape your eyebrows, eyebrow threading in my opinion, gives you the most defined, shaped, and on point eyebrows, since it removes even the smallest of hairs that tweezers and razors tend to miss. Eyebrow threading is also fast; a quick 5-10 minute procedure, and it lasts 3-4 weeks. Since it lasts so long, it is also quite cost effective and really low maintenance; eyebrow threading makes your eyebrows easier and much faster to style with your makeup each day. In my personal experience, eyebrow t…

Want to know how I got this simple, but sexy look? Then keep reading 💋

1. Apply eye drops when your eyes look tired or red. I have not been sleeping well because of the constant construction happening outside my home, so I needed to lessen the redness and make my eyes look whiter and more clear, so I applied eye drops. I find that eye drops in the drugstore don't do much for me, so I only buy eye drops online; I also prefer natural herbal ones, so the ones I used today are the Itone Ayurvedic Herbal Eye Drops. I use eye drops almost everyday because I like to clean my eyes out; I feel like it is just a good healthy, hygiene habit to have. Lately though, I have been rushing a lot so I have been skipping this step, but my makeup doesn't look as good when I do skip it in my opinion. So, I recommend cleaning your eyes out everyday before applying your makeup because whiter eyes look healthier and your eye makeup will pop more.

Want to learn how to get this simple, beautiful look? Then keep reading 👯


Let's start with the eyes. I always start any makeup look with the eyes because there may be fallout from your eyeshadows; it is much easier to just brush off or wipe off fallout before you have any other makeup on, so that way you don't remove your face makeup. Before even applying any eyeshadow though, I always apply:

1. An eyeliner sealerfirst. An eyeliner sealer acts as an eye primer, but it does even more. An eyeliner sealer can be applied over eyeliner to help reduce smudging; it can be mixed with any eyeshadow in order to turn it into an eyeliner; it can make poorly pigmented eyeshadows very pigmented, and you can even use an eyeliner sealer to get glitter to adhere to your eyes without having to worry about it falling off.

2. Apply eyeshadow. I used 2 shades from the 3W Clinic eyeshadow palette. This palette comes with 9 different eyeshadows and 3 blushers in one palette, and the palette only costs…
