DIY Winter Time Mask for ANY skin type!

Hey guys!
This mask is great for any skin type! Mine varies throughout the year according to the season, and like many people, my skin gets SUPER dry and flaky in the winter. My lips take a beating too! Anyway, this mask is for your face. It’s super simple and all these ingredients are at your fingertips! No need for any special potions.
The video:
DIY winter mask!

1.Cut up half a banana and mash it up
2. Add 1 teaspoon of milk, ¾ teaspoon honey, ¾ teaspoon olive oil
** Add more or less olive oil depending on how oily or dry your skin gets. if my skin is feeling extra dry, then I ass more olive oil, if your skin gets oily, you can cut down to ½ or even ¼ teaspoon of olive oil
3. Mix everything together
4. Apply this mask to your face (**Do this over a SINK) and let it sit for 20 minutes. (yes, it feels EXTREMELY nasty, but it works WONDERS.)
5. Wash it off and moisturize well!!! That’s it! I would do this no more than 3 times a week at the most, or maybe 3 times every 4 weeks for someone with oily skin. It all depends on your skin type.

Hope you guys liked this mask! I know what it feels like to have dry skin!  (not fun.)

New Year's Nails!


Hey girls!
I'm back with yet another nail design
I absolutely love doing my nails, but I always envision a cute design and it usually turns out to be a glob of polish. Honestly, if I can do this, you can too.
The video:
New Year's Nails!

Base Color: It can be dark or light, but you must have a contrasting color! :)
Sally Hansen- The Deepest of Violets
Contrasting color (color used to write “2012”): If the base color was dark, choose a light color, and vice-versa ß spelling??
LA Colors Art Deco Nail Laquer-White
Chunky polish: Any chunky polish of your choice works!
Wet&Wilds- Sparked
OPI- Mad as a Hattar & Absolutely Alice (from the Alice in Wonderland collection)
Sheer glittery nail polish (sorry it was a random brand! any kind will work!)
Toothpick:
Of course any kind works. this is just what I used to make my French manicure, but it you can free hand it, then go for it!
Topcoat: ANY kind works, but you better use one!! glitter chips VERY easily! It even chips the day that you put it on!
Sally Hansen Xtreme Nail-100 Invisible
I know a lot of people will get creative with the thumb nail, so choose any design! a cool idea could be the NYC ball drop or something! let me know what you guys would do! :)
That’s it! Please follow me on twitter so that I you can tweet me pics of your nail design!! :)

Have an amazing and SAFE New Year! I hope you all have someone to share the moment with!
