Homemade Concealer/ Primer

I like my concealer to be lighter than my foundation, also with any sort of green tint helps tremendously to cover those red spots (I use Spirulina)

Make a loose powder Foundation, and add my Body Lotion to make a creamy consistency. (Personally, I like my concealer to be more creamy and my foundation I prefer to be loose powder).

Once thick enough to cover those imperfect spots put in container with lid.

You may want to make it a bit thicker to use as a primer. I just use Spirulina,cornstarch, a pinch of cocoa powder, and some of my homemade lotion.

Homemade Make-up: Foundation/ Bronzer/ Blush/ Eye Shadow

I've found that making my own makeup has not only saved me money, but also helped my skin. I like using a cleaned out or new spice container for my loose powders. You just simply shake once, open the lid and take your powder from the lid. For Loose Powder- Mix together then store in a spice jar, make-up container, or an old compact. Pressed Powder- If you want to make it a more solid base so that only a little sticks to the brush, use a few drops of essential oil or rubbing alcohol to mix with the powder and push down in a compact. This will make it hard like a regular compact. Creamy/ Liquid- If you want a more creamy product, add some homemade or scent free lotion, petroleum jelly, or coconut oil. (I prefer coconut oil, I whip it with my little handheld mixer before adding. It makes for a much easier application). Store in jar with lid or pump. You can also add this combination to some homemade or scent free lotion, petroleum jelly, ...

Homemade Creamy Italian Dressing

I dug through SO MANY different recipes that have lists a mile long for a simple salad dressing. In the end, Just had to make my own. My boyfriend is a picky eater, so here's my first and last attempt at making this Creamy Italian Dressing to die for! Super Quick and Easy- Not to mention AMAZING! 1 cup -Mayo 2 Tbs- Vinegar (I prefer Apple Cider Vinegar) 1 Tbs- Sugar 1 1/2 Tbs- Italian Seasoning 1/4 tsp Garlic Salt Sprinkle with pepper **Whip it up, and enjoy. If you want it a bit more runny use a bit more Vinegar. The thickness of this dressing could be used for a dip as well. End Result? AMAZING-NESS! My boyfriend puts this in everything, and I mean EVERYTHING. Let me know how well you all like my homemade concoction. =)

DIY MAKE-UP SETTING SPRAY

What is a setting Spray? PURE AMAZING-NESS- That's what! I love my Mac Setting spray ( Fix + ), but to spend $21 for a 3.4 oz bottle? I knew there had to be a way to DIY. Setting sprays are always great to have for a quick grab in the summer, when it feels like your face is melting off. One simple spray and you're good. (I always keep a to-go spray bottle in my purse. Around $.97 at Walmart) I am sure you all know, bottom line, Glycerin = Sugar. Don't be scared yet. With the sugar water diluted you won't end up having syrup on your face- Also, Make sure that you DO NOT SPRAY TOO CLOSE TO YOUR FACE. A simple spray about elbows length away is enough. Using this recipe you can change the scent to whatever you like! Personally, I like using Filtered Rose Water (it's mild, and has a great scent)- If you have redness in your skin the rose water will help. Another option is adding one part witch hazel- it make...
