Hair Tutorials: 7 Incredibly Chic Ways to Wear Bobby Pins

Hair Tutorials: 7 Incredibly Chic Ways to Wear Bobby Pins

Happy Monday Gorgeous! 

It's the beginning of a new week and what better way to get it started then by having seven different hair tutorials?  

Thanks to Latest-Hairstyles.com and Wendy Rose Gould, today's hair tutorial post will definitely come in handy this week when you find yourself lacking a little hairstyle inspo. 

According to Wendy, "Bobby pins sort of get the short end of the stick. I mean, they’re super utilitarian, obviously, but pretty much every single tutorial out there tells you they should be tucked away, hidden from the world and never to be seen by a single soul."

"Of course, there’s a time and place when you don’t want your bobby pins to show, but today we’re here to set the bobby pin free. We came up with some bobby pin inspiration for you and have given a how-to for each. If you’re feeling even more playful, try using brightly colored or metallic bobby pins as you experiment with these incredibly chic ways to wear bobby pins."

#1 The Half-Up Bobby Pin Nest

How To: After teasing your hair at the crown and gently combing it out, pull back half of your hair to create a half-up hairdo. Instead of securing hair with an elastic, though, twist it twice to the right and then begin inserting bobby pins to secure. Don’t worry about being strategic or uniform or symmetrical. Instead, create a messy nest of bobby pins. Not only will your hair be very secure, but it’ll look cool. The more bobby pins and the more haphazard their placement, the more “on purpose” it will look.

#2 The Half Up Braided and Bobbied

How To: Create two small-to-medium braids on either side of your head. Pull them to the back until they meet and then insert four criss-crossed bobby pins. For an additional touch, and so people know you’re not ashamed of your bobby pin game, insert three horizontal bobby pins above the braids at the center of your head.

#3 The Messy Bun Meets Bobby

How To: Gather your hair near the crown of your head as if you’re going to put it in a messy ponytail. Begin wrapping it around itself, then secure the entire bun with a clear elastic. Keep your bun very loose, very casual and very undone. From there, add three sets of two bobby pins around the bun.

#4 The No Reason Zigzag

How To: This one’s great because the bobby pins serve no purpose other than to look pretty. Just above your ear, insert two diagonal bobby pins. From there, create a zigzag by adding two additional bobby pins on top and then two below.

#5 The Super Side Swept Lattice

How To: Create a very deep side part, pulling a large portion of your hair to one side of your face. Insert two bobby pins point away from your face. From there, fold over a small section of the pulled aside hair and insert two addition bobby pins (this time toward your face) to keep the fold in place. Repeat, this time pulling hair from the front portion of your pulled aside hair and folding it over. Insert two more bobby pins to keep it in place, again with bobby pins pointing away from your face. Repeat once more on the other side of the pulled aside section, bobby pins pointing toward your face again. Don’t get too caught up in making this look perfect or the same as the image featured here. Just keep folding sections of the hair back and forth and securing with alternating bobby pins to create a lattice.

#6 The Covered Pony

How To: Divide your hair into three sections, with the largest section in the middle and two smaller sections on either side. Gather the middle section into a low ponytail and secure with a clear elastic. Drag one section of hair over the top of the ponytail and wrap it around, securing with a bobby pin. Repeat on the other side. On either both sides or one side (your choice), insert four fanned out bobby pins.

#7 The Pinned Rosette

How To: Gather a small section of your hair above your ear and gently twist the hair around itself to create a spiral. Place the rosette flat against your head and insert two criss-crossed bobby pins.


Now it's your turn: Which of these chic ways to wear bobby pins will you try to recreate this week?  Let me know in the comments - I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

Sleeping Beauty Overnight Gel Masques

 Miss Spa Launches 5 “Sleeping Beauty” Overnight Gel Masques

Enjoy professional results while you sleep for a refreshed and renewed complexion 

As someone who loves trying new skincare products - especially facial masks - finding that one product that will work on my skin with minimal effort on my part is essential.  Which is the main reason why I am all over the overnight gel masques / facial treatment masks beauty trend. 

Knowing that whichever overnight gel masque I apply is working its magic by sinking into the skin on a deeper level makes the added step to my nightly routine completely worth it. 

If you haven't tried sleeping with an overnight gel masque, I recommend you give it a try.  And, if you're thinking that an overnight skincare product like this will cost you a fortune, I'm happy to say that will not be the case. 

Miss Spa is proud to launch their new collection of 5 Overnight Gel Masques ($7.99 each) that deliver extraordinary benefits to the skin while sleeping. Before going to bed, spend only 1 minute to gently massage the liquid mask of your choice to cleaned skin until completely absorbed. As you wake in the morning, your skin will be repaired with no need to rinse.

The 5 masques include: Anti-Aging (smooths and refines fine lines and wrinkles), Soothing (calms sensitive and irritated skin), Radiance (brightens and evens out skin tone), Moisturizing (hydrates dry and dehydrated skin) and Purifying (exfoliated and deep cleanses skin). They are water-based and free of parabens, artificial dyes, talc, fragrance and NEVER tested on animals. The masques are packaged in an easy to open, re-sealable pouch that provides 3 applications each.

• Anti-Aging - Counteract pesky signs of aging with Miss Spa Anti-Aging Overnight Gel Masque. Infused with Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5, it reduces mimic wrinkles by inhibiting muscle contractions and slow down cellular skin aging.
• Soothing - Help relieve stressed, aggravated skin with Miss Spa Soothing Overnight Gel Masque. Infused with fruit and plant extracts of Blackcurrant and Cardiospermu, it effectively reduces inflammatory processes and replenishes the damaged skin barrier.
• Radiance - Breathe new life into lackluster skin with Miss Spa Radiance Overnight Gel Masque. Infused with Oligopeptide-68, it decreases tyrosine oxidation and melanin synthesis to reduce overall skin pigmentation.
• Moisturizing – Bathe skin in moisture with Miss Spa Moisturizing Overnight Gel Masque. Infused with Adenosine and Papaya, it optimizes the water balance and reduces the trans-epidermal water loss of the epidermis.
• Purifying - Brighten and soften dull, rough skin with Miss Spa Exfoliating Purifying Overnight Gel Masque. Infused with Pineapple, it removes superficial dead skin cells and restores the skin’s natural radiance and complexion.

Cost: $7.99 each with approximately 3 applications each

Where to Buy: www.ulta.com 

Tip: Anytime I need to buy more of these Miss Spa gel masques (or any beauty related product in general), I only shop online through Ebates so I can get a percentage of my money back. I checked after writing this article and if you shop at Ulta through the Ebates site, you'll get 3% cash back. 


I honestly think you'll find these overnight gel masques from Miss Spa to be not only easy to use, but more importantly effective at locking in all their "good for your skin" ingredients allowing you to wake up to smooth and hydrated skin in the morning.

Quick Post Gym Hairstyles for Work + Fun

Quick Post-Gym Hairstyles for Work & Fun

Date night, work or last minute plans? Go from the gym to glam with these fast hair ideas

In last week's article I shared a few simple ways you can create a successful personal fitness program, if you missed it - click here to read the full article. 

Of the many challenges that come from working out, one of the most popular is how to style our hair post-gym. Regardless of what time of day (or night) you choose to work out, the following hair ideas shared by Fernando Salas, creator of White Sands Haircare, will certainly give you fast hair ideas to go from the gym to a number of after workout plans like work, a date or even just a lazy weekend at home. 

1. Going from the Gym to Last Minute Plans - Do a 3 Minute Blowout

Spray a hairspray like White Sands Infinity ($22) to soak up extra oils and create lift at the roots. Quickly use your dryer and direct the heat only at your hairline to dry up the most visible, sweaty areas. Flip your head over and dry hair upside down. When you come back up, you will have volume while also refreshening tresses. Spray your brush with perfume and run through your hair to finish.

2. Going from the Gym to Date Night - Do a Post Workout Chignon

Start by tousling hair with a texture spray like White Sands UnderCover Styling Spray ($21). Loosely pull hair back into a low pony tail. Using bobby pins, pin a section of hair from the middle of the ponytail an inch or two above the hair tie. Then, use hair pins to pin the remaining lengths in place to complete the look. "Remember, it doesn't have to look perfect. The more creative and the more texture the better," explains Salas.

3. Going from the Gym to Work - Do a Classic Ponytail

"I've noticed that a beautiful classic ponytail is underutilized," says Salas. Using a light weight paste like White Sands Smudge Texture Crème ($16), smooth hair back into a shiny sleek, pony and secure in the middle of the head below the crown and above the nape. Wrap a small piece of hair around the band to dress it up and secure the ends with a bobby pin.

4. Going from the Gym to Cocktails with the Girls - Do a High Bun

There are so many different bun makers out there with various foam shapes to choose from. It has never been easier to make one in seconds. You can even cut the toe area off of a sock and roll the remaining part into a circular piece to use. In seconds you will have a clean polished style, that is still fun and flirty. Seal it with a shine spray like White Sands Porosity ($19.40) to disguise oily hair.

5. Going from the Gym to a Relaxed Weekend - Do a Braid

No matter where life takes you, opting for a braided hairstyle can be the easiest way to get pretty hair without a lot of prep. Wear your braid of choice while working out and let this style act as a curling iron. Once you are done at the gym, undo to reveal heatless waves perfect for a casual weekend. 



Which post gym hairstyle are you most likely to try?

Stay tuned for Thursday’s blog post, where we will be sharing the top ten beauty tutorial articles from 2015.

Red + Gold Ombre Nail Tutorial

Hello there Gorgeous! 

Can you believe that the month of November is almost over?  I can't. It's crazy how quickly the days go by once Halloween is over. But, there is a silver lining: the Holidays are right around the corner. 

And that's something we all look forward to, amiright? 

So, if you’re starting to feel the holiday vibes, then you’ll want to check out this new nail art tutorial from our close friends at Julep. 

Recently, they shared a gold-and-red ombre nail look that will bump up those festive feelings and get you ready for Turkey Day and beyond.  Best part about it is that this ombre tutorial is so easy, you don’t have to be a nail artist to create this shimmery look.

To begin, this is what you'll need to accomplish these beautiful red + gold ombre nails. 

This nail tutorial uses two polish shades from Julep's new Jingle Bells Welcome Box – which you can get for FREE when you join the Julep beauty box subscription. Once you join, you’ll get a box of on-trend, gorgeous, and good-for-you products delivered to your doorstep every month.  On the other hand, if you’re already a Maven (like I am!), you can snag these colors in Julep's  Very Merry Polish Duo gift set.

Now it's time to get into this easy Red + Gold Ombre Nail Tutorial. 

To get started, pick a gold and a sparkly red polish (they are using Margot Bombshell and Neely from the Jingle Bells box) and follow these simple steps:

1) Paint one coat of Gold, then let dry completely.

2) Dab a makeup sponge with the red glitter polish

3) Blot the makeup sponge on the tip of the nail to create the ombre effect.

Then, add the top coat, and you’re done!

These red + gold ombre nails are perfect for the upcoming Holidays. You can wear these nails for Thanksgiving dinner or for Christmas - while opening your gifts ;) 

For those of you who may not be all about red and gold, here is another similar ombre nail tutorial we shared a few weeks ago: Galaxy Inspired Ombre Nail Tutorial 

Hopefully this easy to follow ombre nail tutorial inspires you to treat yourself to a little glam this weekend.

Tips and Tricks for Everyday Eye Makeup + #FalsiesPushUpDrama

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone.  #FalsiesPushUpDrama #CollectiveBias 

The eyes are the windows to the soul, as they say, and they are the most beautiful features in a woman's face.  Whenever you put on your eye makeup - especially mascara, your aim should always be to make your eyes look brighter.  

To achieve brighter eyes, you really only need one essential eye makeup product: Mascara. A volumizing mascara, like the Maybelline #FalsiesPushUpDrama , will lift your eyelashes - giving your eyes instant brightness. 

However, adding concealer, eye-shadow, kajal eyeliner, and an eyebrow kit will also help in creating an everyday eye makeup look to brighten the eyes. 

But, before showing you how to achieve the everyday eye look using the mentioned makeup products, let's do a little shopping. 

Personally, I prefer to use drug store makeup products for my everyday makeup. Why? They are easily accessible as well as budget friendly. 

On my most recent beauty run, I drove to Walmart to purchase a few of my favorite Maybelline products. 

While walking down the Maybelline aisle in the Cosmetics Dept, I noticed that there was a display for the new #FalsiesPushUpDrama mascara. Once I looked over the display and saw the waterproof version - I knew I wanted to buy it. 

Feeling completely accomplished, I walked over to the nearest cashier, paid for my beauty haul and drove home so I could do my everyday eye makeup. 

Here is my mini beauty haul: Maybelline Fit Me Concealer - 15 Fair, Color Tattoo - Creamy Beige, Mater Kajal - Midnight Brown, Brow Drama Pro Pallette - Blonde for eyebrows and the new Maybelline #FalsiesPushUpDrama Mascara in Blackest Black. 

Of all the drugstore beauty products, Maybelline knows a thing or two about mascara's. The new #FalsiePushUpDrama has a cup-shaped bristle that scoops, coats and lifts lashes. The plumping formula is creamy enough that it glides smoothly onto the lashes for a dramatic, volumizing  effect. Exactly what we need for brighter eyes!

Now that we have our five Maybelline products, let's move on to this easy step-by-step everyday eye makeup look. 

1. Using the spoolie inside the Browdrama Pro Palette, comb through your eyebrows. 

2. Taking one side of the double ended angle brush (also included with brow palette), dip into the wax. Apply the wax evenly over the entire eyebrow. 

TIP: Do your best to apply the smallest amount of wax. If you apply too much, the wax will clump and not allow you to get a smooth surface for the next step. 

3. Using the second side of the angle brush, pick up some of the powder. Position the angle brush directly under the eyebrow - in one smooth motion, line underneath the eyebrow. Do the exact same to the top of eyebrow.  Dipping the brush back into powder, begin to fill the sparse areas of your brow. Use the spoolie to blend the powder throughout the brow hairs. 

TIP: For the most natural brows, concentrate most of the powder from the middle to the tail. This will give you more definition. Try to have a lighter application to the front of brows. 

4. To define and highlight the brows, apply a light layer of concealer to the brow-bone. Dab concealer with fingers to blend it into the skin. 

TIP: Once you have highlighted your brow-bone, take a little more of concealer and use it over the entire lid as your eye-shadow primer. This also helps cancel out any skin discolorations, veins or circles under the eyes. 

5. Get a small synthetic blending brush. Pick up some of the highlight powder in the brow palette. Swipe this over the entire lid. 

6. After wiping off the blending brush, dip the brush into the cream eye-shadow. Place the eye-shadow on the lid, blending into the crease. This is will give you a soft wash of color over the eyes. 

TIP: For everyday eye looks, use Maybelline Color Tattoo in Creamy Beige, Matte Brown, Nude Pink and Pure Nude. 

7. Taking a small flat blending brush, pick up some of the cream eye-shadow then apply it to the lower lash line. Blend. 

8. Curl lashes. 

9. Open up your tube of Maybelline #FalsiesPushUpDrama, take the wand and place it at the bottom of the lash line. Glide the brush upward - gently moving it from side to side in a wiggling motion. 

TIP: When taking the mascara wand out of the tube, do not pump it in and out of the tube. This will ruin your mascara. Instead, twirl the wand inside the tube before pulling it completely out. 

9. (cont.) After applying mascara to the outer lashes, tilt the wand about 45 degrees and coat the inner lashes. 

After I applied the first layer of #FalsiesPumpUpDrama, you'll notice the lashes have gained volume and length.  This is a great result - especially after just one coat. 

But, there is a way to get even more volume out of this mascara. 

10. TRICK:  Using the spoolie from before, dip it into a little bit of translucent powder. Apply the powder onto lashes in the same exact way as we did our first layer of mascara. 

Follow up with a second coat of mascara.  - Do you see the added volumizing effect? What about the length? 

As you can see, with two coats of #FalsiesPumpUpDrama mascara + translucent powder you AH-mazing looking lashes. No need to mess with false lashes - especially for an everyday look. 

There is only one last trick left. Do you notice that sometimes there are these tiny little gaps in between your upper lashes? Let's fix that. 

11. With the tip of the masterkajal eye pencil, tight-line your upper lash-line. 

TIP: It may take a few times before you and your eyes get used to the feeling of the eye pencil on your upper waterline. I find that if I open up my eyes wide enough looking straight forward, I can run the eye pencil along my lash line with no problems. 

You've seen the steps, now take a look at this before + after photo: 

You can definitely see what a difference a little bit of eye makeup can do - especially a volumizing mascara. 

With that being said, even if you choose not to complete every single step, tip or trick from this tutorial, please go ahead and try out the Maybelline #FalsiesPushUpDrama mascara. Applying this mascara only takes a few minutes, but the dramatic results will last all day long. 

Do you have any tips or tricks for applying mascara? What's your favorite everyday eye makeup look?
