STOP THE HATE
So lately my facebook news feed has been filled with hate spewing peeps who are so upset over Miley Cyrus and Robin Thicke at the VMA's. Here's my advice, instead of worrying they will be a bad influence on your kids, why not try to be the positive role model for them? How about set an example? Why not worry about actual problems in the world (ie Syria, Egypt killings, world hunger, human rights over the world, Russia etc, just to name a few) instead of cyber bullying (calling Miley a slut on and Robin a douche over the internet, where they can't see who is doing the bullying, is the same as what we all complain about kids doing to each other that has caused so many suicides across the states). I don't understand how we as a society bitch about the problems we do, then turn around and create the same damn things. STOP THE HATE.

Cruelty Free Galaxy Nails: Easy and Do able!
Hello everyone!!!!
So today I'm gonna give you a short list of galaxy nail tools I found helpful! I am really bad at being a girl. I can't do my nails, or my hair very well to be honest. I had always wanted to try galaxy nails, but always felt so discouraged. A google image result that encouraged me greatly can be found here.
once I had some courage, I looked online a bit more and found this amazing tutorial by MissJenFABULOUS which can be viewed here:

Once my confidence gained, I decided to give it a shot. I used all cruelty free products and here are a list of supplies I used:
make up sponges
LA colors base and top coat
LA colors black nail polish
LA colors hot pink nail polish
LA colors turquoise nail polish
LA colors glitter top coat
Orly color pixie powder (purple glitter coat)
All it takes is two coats of black polish, then sponge on your accent colors. You'll want to paint the polish onto the sponge and then lightly pat your nail with the color. It should feel a little tacky as you apply. Dont be afraid to add color to make it pop. I did blue first, then a smaller area of pink color. I then added the purple glitter over where my pink was. Add a glitter top coat, then a normal top coat and viola! Galaxy nails. Here are my results:

They look a bit messy, but in person, they are fantastic. And trust me, if I can do it, so can you!
Until next time, stay true, stay you!
