It's no secret I love me some Flash Tattoos. So, natch, I added added a little one-two-punch to my basic pink mani with some Sheebani designs. I love how it turned out, and - more importantly - how easy it was. Ain't nobody got time for those complicated nail art tutorials on Pinterest. Bling bling!

Wanna deck your nails out too? Check out the post I wrote on the Flash blog for the full tutorial.

Being stuck inside during a very rainy (and slighty terrifying) Memorial Day weekend, a makeup bag full of empties, and a voucher offer on Gilt City for $30 off at Bobbi Brown's website meant it was the perfect time to go on a little beauty bender. I've never had a bad experience with Bobbi's line in the past (and there's some nostalgia there since I used her line for my wedding day), so I kinda had this #treatyoself mentality and went nuts. Here's the general consensus of what I stocked up on:

Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation Stick // I loved my Benefit foundation while it lasted, but I ran out and bought some cheapo Boots foundation to tide me over. Sometimes liquid foundation is a little high maintenance or too much for everyday. My co-worker Alex uses a foundation stick, which basically made me realize I pretty much needed one ASAP. I love how quick and easy it is to even out your skin tone without getting foundation cake face. Bonus points for it being TSA-friendly.

So there you have it. Spring beauty arsenal almost complete. And vow to not spend any more money has been made.

I copped this photo from the beautiful Jesse Coulter...she's the fox in the middle. Michelle and Sara are to her left, Celine and some ridiculously tall weird chick with a strangely named blog to her right. ;)

 

On a whim, I dyed my hair pink 2 weeks ago. I was smitten, it was awesome, I felt like a bad ass, and it was the perfect pastel color for spring.

Unfortunately, I am already back to blonde. Despite buying some fancy shampoos and conditioners and loading up on dry shampoo to avoid washing it, the color didn't even last for a full week after 2 washes. Very depressing. And expensive. Wahhh.

Any of you have a good experience going the DIY route and dyeing your hair a fun color at home? Or is that just a really, really, really bad idea? The process looked pretty fool-proof when we did it in the salon....but maybe that's just something a fool would think!?
