Baseball Game + Makeup

I was going to film a video about this topic, but obviously resorted to creating a blog post and not creating both because I can come up with a variety of videos to film with unrepeated topics.  Anyways, this post is going to be an easy baseball game makeup routine so you can look pretty and watch the game.  I love going to baseball games and it tends to be a thing my dad and I do for fun together, although I really want to bring a friend along one day.  I have a lot of fun at baseball games and if you don't go to them then you should consider spending a day at the ball park.

First your going to want to cleanse your face.  I  used my Neutrogena Alcohol Free Toner, it does an absolutely fabulous job at purifying my face.  I highly recommend this product before and after you apply makeup.

Then move to a BB cream, the Maybelline BB cream is this only one I own so I use that one.  Although, Maybelline BB cream gives a dewy finish and I would rather have a matte finish because I sweat at baseball games.  So, if you have a BB cream you recommend for sweaty activities please do let me know.  I skip powder because BB cream doesn't need to be set and I hate the way wet powder looks on my face.  If you haven't tried it yet take it from me because that its a mistake you won't want to made.

Then I go to lip gloss.  The one I use smells like candy, its compact, and its the perfect lip gloss I have ever tried.  The lip gloss I use is called Ultrashine Lipgloss in Life On The A List by Benefit.  I like to put a dab of this on my cheek because I love that when cheek matches my lip color.  (shown is Elf Hypershine Gloss in Flirt. ;) )

For eyeshadow I don't like to go to heavy with eyeliner or mascara.  So usually I would just take a bright pop of color like Mac's Prowear Eyeliner in Mountain Air.

That completes my whole baseball game look.  It is fun, and wearable for the hot weather too, so if your not going to a baseball game this summer I am sure you will spend some days outside when you can wear this look.

#1 Thing ALL Beauty Guru's Must Have?

Everyone has different skin compositions and different hair texture, but one thing all beauty gurus share is a friendly personality.  We must have patience as tribute to our great personalities.  Being calm and being able to not rush into anything is patience and it is the #1 beauty guru must have.  We are constantly creeping on our monthly favorites and we have to have patience to gather up our other must haves.  Another popular video we need patience for is our empties.  I hate to hoard empty items in my house, but I keep them in a separate hard-to-reach area under the bathroom sink and I have the patience to collect them.  Obviously, when I am done filming the video I will have the discipline to throw it all away, because there is no longer a need to hold on to them.  Above discipline is patience and it is the #1 beauty guru must have.

Garnier Products!

When it wasn't the day to use my Neutrogena for my hair I used Garnier.  I love the shampoo and condition from this line because the shampoo really does clean, and the conditioner really does soften!  Personally, I believe this hair product is unisex because it doesn't include a flirty girl scent.  The packaging is also very amazing, but maybe its because I am obsessed with everything green!  The price is right and you only need a small handful to wash and condition your hair properly.  I believe you should only use the Neautrogena Triple Moisture on a weekly basis because it does triple of what Garnier does (hence the name ;P ).  Although I might say I prefer Neautrogena over Garnier the reason is because it does such an amazing job deep cleaning and super softening my hair.

Obsessed with Spanish?

Half of me is biologically spanish, but all my life I have grown up around a completely semi-Californian, native Floridian and adoptive Virginian lifestyle.  I used to love Pandora and finding new music was such a win for me, but if I liked a song back then I would have to go and screen shot the page so I could find it again.  This was a silly and time wasting process.  I was so happy when I found Spotify and discovered how vast my options where.  I now have a techno playlist, an emotional playlist and even a spanish playlist; I have music for whatever mood I am in.  Spotify has a free subscription that if you haven't tried out you should!  I am specifically obsessed with my spanish playlist.  What are you adoring now?

Training To A 5-K

I decided in Novermeber 2012 that I wanted to run better, faster and stronger.  I have been going at it and not receiving the results I expected.  In order to change that, I found a running plan called The Couch-To-5K.    Not only do they provide a schedule that will get me running better in 9 weeks, but it also has apps for phones.  The app has a zombie option and you have to run from the zombies!  I think that it is really cool and I am really excited to try it out.  I have looked over the plan over and over and I have decided that my body is going to get stronger and I will be able to run the whole 3 miles at the end of the 9 weeks.  I am so excited!

Eerie Earrings

All my friends have the cutest earrings that I have ever seen!  Whenever I ask them where they got it they always tell me Forever 21 or Icing and the problem is I am hypo-allergenic to those brands!  I can only wear the 4 precious stones my dad bought me.  Don't get me wrong I love the rubies, peridot, sapphire and diamonds, but I wish I could wear the hip and cool earrings like my friends.  If only there was a special spray to protect my ear from getting infected... I really need a solution for my eerie ears!
