Eshakti Dress | Kat Von D Palette | Models Own Polish | Formula X Polish Make Up For Ever Aqua Cream | OCC Lip Tar | Moss Shoes | Jungle Purse Hey all! Sunday was my birthday and I thought I’d share some fun products and items featuring my favorite color Green that just so happens to represent St Patrick’s Day in the US. You can give your eye look some dimension by placing lighter shades on the center of the lid or inner corner likewise you can darken a look up by placing darker color on the inner corner and outer corner. Remember to balance your look out. For example green lips and neutral eye… well unless you are going all out partying in that case just have fun with it! Or you could literately go to the Sephora site hereand search green. BAM tons of beauty options! Will…

So just as I did for Valentine’s Day I am going to do a few St Patrick’s day looks. Over the last year I’ve strayed away from making makeup posts because honestly, there are just so many out there and I want CrashBeauty to me more than just about makeup because I am more than just makeup. But I miss my posts so I will be making more series for the blog in addition to other content. I will not likely do tutorials on how to do the look unless someone writes in the comment that they would like a visual tutorial. I confess I was watching Oz the great and powerful on HBO over the weekend with the boyfriend and my heart longed for the Theodora palette that I just couldn’t ever justified spending my poor college student budget on. Ultimately that was the inspiration for this look even…

So March 1st I attended the Tampax and Always sponsored Neon Lights tour for Demi Lovato. This was the first time I had seen Demi in concert and surrounded by many teen gals screaming it was still a pretty nice concert. Words of empowerment came from a number of songs both by the singer as well as the bands that kicked off the concert show. Prior to the show I met up with the Tampax Radiant duo at their section (which by the way the entire hall was PACKED) of the hall to learn more about the closet that the team put together. I absolutely loved the general chic-ness to the pop up room. It had a very modern chic vibe with vibrant colors and a gorgeous chevron pattered wall (I need that wall). To be honest I wasn’t a fan of most of the clothes that were in the…

So I decided today I would take a break from my excruciating projects for school (Finals of course) and figure out what in the heck I was going to wear to this concert. Normally I don’t particularly stray from what I normally do for a concert. I just dress in what is comfortable and make sure I have a pair of sneakers on with thicker soles (usually skate shoes) so the vibrations don’t kill my back so much. At the same time I’m not usually getting my photo taken (and usually when I am it is hot as hell and I try to look good and the heat doesn’t agree with my hair or makeup anyway). Seriously I am terrible at it, check it out below. Back Street Boys (not whole band) Maroon 5 JesseMcCartney So now that you’ve seen my shameful photos I thought hey, I have absolutely NO neon…

Sunday I went with the boyfriend to adventure aquarium with our friends and their daughter. Currently Adventure Aquarium in Camden New Jersey is offering $15 tickets for general admission until March 2nd(Use code SNOW14) so we figured now is as good a time as any for him to go to the aquarium since he’s really wanted to go for about a year now.  Funny enough half way through the aquarium I ran into my mother who just so happened to be taking the kids too for the first time! So naturally they didn’t want to go home yet and we had not headed to the kids zone yet so they came with us the rest of the visit. Here are some photos from our trip! What was the last aquarium you’ve visited?

“Beauty is an expression of health…What most people don’t realize about beauty is that it is about being and feeling healthy.” I was contacted by NeoCell to review their supplements. I’ve been on the lookout for some dietary supplements to take for my hair and skin since I’ve been having so many issues with retaining moisture among other things. I chose both the keratin hair volumizer pills and the Beauty Bursts in fresh mint chocolate. What is it? Keratin hair volumizer dietary supplements The keratin hair volumizer dietary supplements state they include clinically proven ingredients to improve hair strength, enhance hair volume and increase shine. It contains 60 capsules and it is suggested to take two capsules twice daily. It is made in the USA. It also promotes healthy skin and nails as well. The product does state that the statements haven’t been evaluated by the FDA and that its…

Is anyone else sick and tired of the terrible weather? Don’t get me wrong, I prefer the cold but the fact that the city gets practically shut down every time it snows is getting a little ridiculous. So one of the mini sketches (this one is laughable) I did when trying to work with the new tablet and looking at the computer screen rather than what I was drawing I did a little sketch of a swimsuit I would want to buy for summer. So then I figured hey I’ll post some cool looking swimsuits I can find online too! So I picked some vintage looking chic swimsuits from various sellers. The cut and style varies for everyone based on your body type. For instance I have an hourglass shape but I’m always most concerned about my girls popping out and I want them supported. I am more likely to…

So I heard that iridescent shadows are somewhat of a trend for spring. Why not jump start the season (before the season haha) with a simple nude V-day look you can make your own?! You can really make this look as bold or as natural depending on the crease shade and the eyeliner you go with. For a more natural look, go with a smudged liner that isn’t very thick but still provides the appearance of volume. Otherwise do it up with a bold liner, here I used a brown aqua liner from Make Up For Ever but you really can use any type. Apply your eye primerChoose a nude shade that is a little lighter than your skin tone to brighten the look and make you look more awake for the lid. (If you prefer a sultrier look choose a shade deeper but remember to brighten the inner eye.…

Hey girls, Here is another Valentine’s Day eye with a completely bright look. The lid has bright, hot pink faded out with a nice almost muted plumy mauve shade. Again, I won’t be listing the products. Make it your own and experiment with colors. (TIP: first check color pairs on the back of your hand.) Prep eyes with an eye primerTo really brighten the lid shade I used a white base on the lid. Be careful not to bring it up to the crease as it might… crease later in the day and not look quite so appealing. Also don’t over apply. What I do is add some right to the middle of my eye and then spread it out with a small concealer brush.Apply your lid color. Use a tissue under your eye to catch any fall out if needed. (You can also do a gradient effect where a…

I was contacted by Majestical Jewelry about doing a review of one of their products. They sent me an item from their fashion line and the item that I received you can find on the site under the heading What An Earring (Product code EER2995-FB) at the low price of $12 US. The earrings are gold colored and have textured parts connected with gold beads. Gold textured feathers dangle from each bead. I love that these earrings are extremely light weight which is nice since they are rather large and I really hate when earrings pull at my ears (one of the major reasons I’ve avoid long earrings). However, because of this same factor they will bend quite easily so you want to be careful not to bend them out of shape. The color almost reminds me of rose gold but not quite so pink. The site says they are…
