The Ballad Of Monalisa

Hey guys... This morning is just so booooooooooooring, so I decided to make yours very good with a post, haha.
This is a song I like very much, so, watch the music video:

Yes, Mary Did It (:
If you watch, you'll know what I'm talking about!

Flutter Your Eyelashes

The eyelashes are not just strands of hair that rim our eyelids. They are gifts that Mother Nature gave us to protect and shield our eyes from dust and other foreign bodies. And because we communicate a lot with our eyes, our eyelashes help us put color and meaning to our words with the way we flutter and bat our eyelashes.

It would be infinitely nicer and infinitely more effective, though, if the lashes that we bat and flutter look long, thick and immaculate. We do not have to be born with long and thick eyelashes to be able to have seductive-looking eyes, though. After all, what is makeup for? All it takes is the touch of the magical mascara wand.

Mascara does magic for our lashes as long as it is correctly applied, in such a way that there are no globs of the stuff clinging to our lashes and that each strand is separated from the other. Nothing ruins the effect of mascara than globs and lash strands clumped together.

To avoid dried globs and clumping strands, apply the mascara to the base of the lashes with the mascara wand and then give the wand a wiggle. Afterwards, carefully brush the mascara to the ends of the lashes with the use of a lash comb. Or if you do not want to use a lash comb, just wipe the excess mascara from your wand with a piece of tissue before touching it to your lashes.

Another thing that makes mascara look ugly is if it smudges. Sometimes, the smudge happens because the eye cream or the concealer used is oil-based and still wet. You can prevent the smudging by applying powder first onto your lower eyelids before putting on the mascara. Also, try not to blink while putting the mascara on, or else it will definitely stick to your eyelids rather than to your lashes.

Sometimes, a second coat of mascara makes the lashes look thicker. But if you are thinking of applying a second coat, better do it before the first coat dries, or else you will only end up clumping the lashes. Also, do use your lash curlers before putting on your mascara, not after. Lash curlers work more effectively if preheated prior to the curling. Be careful not to heat your curlers too much, though, or else you will singe your eyes.

When applying mascara, we tend to miss the lashes at the corners of our eyes. To make sure that you have your lashes fully covered, it is best that you use a mascara wand that is short and thin. Short and wands let you reach those corner lashes; it also gives you extra control in handling it.

The best mascara results come from using clean wands, so keep your wands clean at all times. Put some makeup remover on your mascara wand to wash off the dried mascara, and then clean it with soap and water. Let the wand dry first before replacing it with your other makeup tools. A clean and dry wand not only maximizes the application and appearance of mascara on the eyes, but also prevents the eyes from getting irritated.

Ruby Kisses Very Sexy Mascara - Gossip Caah's Review

Last December, on Gossip Caah’s birthday, her friend Amanda, that is living now in the US, sent her a box full of makeup. One of the 12 mascaras was Ruby Kisses Very Sexy Mascara. I didn’t know it, so I just looked for it on the internet, and, for my super surprise, the price: $3 dollars! Only! If I had seen the price before I used it, I would have been even more surprised, but as I used it before, my surprise was only because of the price.

The brush has many fibers, but nothing surprising… I mean, it’s only a mascara brush with nothing special! The mascara gave me a great lengthening, no clumping… I really liked it! The only problem is that it isn’t waterproof… and two hours after I had put it, I saw it was kind of melting on my lashes and on my skin, so I looked like I had been crying.

Okay, it is nothing compared to Lancôme, but comparing the prices, it is great.

Lancôme's Pure Focus Exfoliator - Gossip Caah's Review!

First of all, remember that Lancôme isn’t paying me for this.

Gossip Caah decided to buy it because her friend, Jessie, said it was good. It really is!

It is a light blue cream with little balls all over it, that are a few shades darker than the cream. It is funny to touch it, because it feels like… a cream with little balls, haha!

How it works:

I applied it yesterday, at night, then did all that I needed to do… and after I washed my face, I was really surprised! It looked very soft, and I couldn’t see the pores. My skin is already very light (I need FPS 50), but after it looked even lighter. My cheeks are naturally white, but after the scrub it looked like I had used a light cream blush, because they were kind of a light pink (only the cheeks). I liked that it is oil-free, so it’s good for my usually a bit oily skin.

I was even more surprised today morning, because my skin was still looking great and it wasn’t oily! I usually wakeup with oil in my T-zone (more in the nose), but today it looked like I had just washed my face with salicylic acid. Now, it’s afternoon and my nose isn’t oily, and today I didn’t put on any makeup because it’s Sunday and I’m staying home (:

Another great thing about it is the price: only $25! I don’t know you, but I think it’s really cheap!

Have anyone tried this?

Maybelline SuperStay 24 Color - Gossip Caah's Review!

Gossip Caah just realized her blog is a bit too boring... So she decided from now on you'll see beauty products reviews here, when Gossip Caah buy them (:
No company is paying me for this. This is my true opinion, not anybody else's.


The color is a few shades darker than I usually wear, but I just loved it. I is a pink with an accent of brown and no sparkling.
There are two sides: the lipgloss and the lip balm. See the pics:


How it works:
First I put the lipgloss, then a few minutes after I put the lipbalm. It was really opaque without the lip balm, so remember to use it after you use the coloured side. After two or three hours, you'll see that your lips look really dry, so just use the lip balm again and it'll look great. The great thing about it is that you can eat, drink, talk, kiss... and the color stays perfectly. But remember: lip balm on your lips! You might also want to put some glitter on it, as I did, because I don't really enjoy opaque lipgloss. It looked great with MAC Dazzleglass Lip Gloss. I first put Maybelline coloured side, and then MAC's lipgloss. It looked great and after seven hours (yes, SEVEN HOURS!!!) it still looked great and not even a bit dry!
Do you want to try it?

Acrylic Nails With Diamonds!!

Are you looking for a super-flashy look to enhance your otherwise modest and unintrusive hands? I’ve got just the solution. Jazz up those hands of yours with acrylic nails and real diamond studs. The diamonds not be huge and expensive in order to get an expensive and exciting look. Lets dig deeper here and see how to get it happening.
The way to add the diamonds to your nails is through nail piercing. Nail piercing is one of the newer things going and for good reason. There are many types of enhancement for your nails. You can use glue to attach decals and designs, or make a hole and attach stones or loops like charms.  Another way to go, which we will consider here, is to pierce the nail and insert a stud. Professional piercing tools and techniques are best, but you can do it yourself if you so require. Some people will use a sewing needle and heat it with a candle then stick it through your nail. This is not for the faint of heart or inexperienced.
One nice thing about decorating acrylic nails is that you can do many designs and embellishments before you glue them to your fingers. This allows you to get them just right and take your time using both hands instead of sometimes just using your awkward hand.
Some of the many looks are nail art with flowers, leaves or even butterflies on them. Sometimes people choose less used fingers like the little finger on which to place elaborate art or make a piercing. This preserves and protects the design from too much wear and tear and perhaps even getting in your way if your lifestyle requires demanding use of you hands.
Are you wondering what might be the best design for you and your acrylic nails? Take a look at some of the latest fashion magazines and you’ll see that this craze has really caught on and there are many different approaches you can take. With diamond studs accentuated with decals, polish, and other techniques, you have the glitz and glamor of many artistic styles and the classiness of diamonds. Choose a smaller diamond in a bigger stud setting to get more bang for your buck. And when you are first starting out, seek the advice and skills of a professional before you embark on journeys in nail-land.
