Manicure Monday: Pink For The Cure #Pinktober

Hello Monday all! Hope y'all had a great weekend. One day down, four more to go until the weekend again. Haha. :P

As y'all may know, October is the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we also call it Pinktober because pink is widely used and symbolizes breast cancer.

All of October, whenever I wear makeup, I would incorporate something pink in honor of Pinktober. By far, I was able to keep my words on that. Since today is Monday and I usually switch up my manicure today, I thought I would do 'em pink for the cause.

As women, I urge you guys to go get yourself checked, whether self exam at home or go get a mammogram done. Be aware of what could happen guys. Because...

Self exam yourself will only take a few minutes, but it could save your life.

Moving along, today's manicure is all about pinks, accent with a pink ribbon.

Sally Hansen Hard As Nail Xtreme Wear Nail Color in White On

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Diamond Shine Base & Top Coat

Pink Poppys is the slightly darker pink on my thumb while Forever Pink is the lighter of the pinks on the other three fingers. Each shade took one thick coat to get that result, including White On.

I used a medium sized dotting tool, dipped it in Forever Pink to create the pink ribbon. 

Thank you for visiting and thanks for reading all. Enjoy the rest of your night. Please come back soon! :)

And always remember guys...

Today's Make Up: Birthday Lunch With Friends

Hello Thursday all! One more day guys, just one more day until the weekend. D-1 until my 25th birthday. Gahhhh, happening too soon. I'm not quite sure how to feel about turning 25 yet. Haha.

Anyways, since tomorrow is my official birthday and I will be hanging out with the brother, my friends wanted to have lunch today. It was great seeing them happy again. We caught up during lunch and did some shopping together, like the good ol' times.

Keeping the makeup simple today with the fall trend of natural face and smoky brown eyes.

I've been into the whole mixing the Magic Lumi with a BB Cream to create a glowing natural look. Truly super gorgeous and natural looking.

I kept my eyes a light smoky brown since my lips will be a super vibrant pink. I have not used this palette in a while and I remembered why that is. I needed to use it wet in order for the shadows to show up, or being able to pick up at that. A damp brush does the trick.

Today's pop of pink comes from my blush by Jane Multi-Colored Cheek Powder and Rimmel Long Lasting Color Rush Balm Stain. Keeping it pink. Pink for the cure! #Pinktober

Today's Make Up: Pink for National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Happy October 1st all! D-2 until I turn 25! Ahhhhhhhh!! Happening oh so soon, bittersweet feels... Such bittersweet feels.

October is also known as Pinktober and is named so because October is the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The Pink Ribbon is the symbol of hope. Pink for the cure!

In honor of Pinktober, I decided to sport pink makeup for the first day of the month. Actually, I am thinking about sporting something pink whenever I wear makeup for the entire month. I'm not promising anything. Haha. But I'll try, for the cause. I know it's something minor but I also want to raise awareness in any way possible. So please join me if you'd like, it's for a good cause. :)

On the face today!
