SUMMER...

SUMMER FACE

———————————————-

Nobody wants to look like a cakey clown when in fact its the season to rock a natural glowy look. Even if you’re Leighton Meester or JLO, you don’t just wake up with amazing skin (okay, maybe these two do). To achieve this glow, let’s start at the root- You must start moisturizing intensely at night, and if you want to be best friends with the future YOU, start using sunscreen now. It protects against wrinkles and acne scars! Having oily skin is no excuse ma ladies. I use a Clear Face formula by Neutrogena.

Now on the short term, here’s the beauty regimen and products you need to shine this summer time.

If you love splurging on beauty products head to Sephora and pick these products:

1. BareMineral Prime Time Primer- so your glow lasts all day!

2. Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Illuminating - gives you decent coverage and illuminates your skin

3. Laura Mercier Pink mosaic Blush - it’s sparkly beads give your cheeks a touch of spark.

4. Nars Illuminator in Orgasm - apply it on cheekbones, brow arch and wherever you feel you need a dab of fresh glow!

5. . My lashes are long (yay!!) but straight (nay :(). I look like a sad dog when they’re straight. So, for the sake of spending less time in the mirror every morning, I curled them permanently. Try it!!! instant beautifier. Even in the morning!

BUT… when I don’t have them permanently curled, I take about 30 seconds pressing the curler on each set of lashes, and apply BADGAL LASH mascara by Benefit right after so it catches the curl.

————————-

If you want a “Steal” on the glowy look (some of us may be broke college fashionistas!):

You can get all these products at Walgreen’s or your favorite drug store:

1. Rimmel London BB cream Beauty Balm- I discovered this recently, and it’s the best drug-store product I’ve ever encountered. It gives you amazing coverage, and does nine things at once: primes, moisturizes, conceals, covers, brightens, and helps protect, and it lasts all day. Do we need to say more!?

2- Maybelline New York Dream Sun Bronzing Face Illuminator- Gives you a summery fresh dewy look. Apply on cheekbones, Eyebrow arch, or wherever you need a sparkle.

3- L’oreal Paris Magic Smooth Souffle Blush in Cherubic - A cream blush with the perfect amount of pink! It’s smooth and easy to apply.

5. Voluminous Mascara by L’OREAL. It’s the best drugstore mascara- its even comparable to high-end beauty products!

CANDY SKIRT + GREEN MINI LEATHER

———-

He’re comes the sun!!!!…..and it’s gone. Thats how it goes in this city, usually. I had to freeze my ass back home and that made me feel like wearing a skirt was out of the question forever and ever, but then I got home and saw my new polished white skirt and forgot about my vengeance plan until now. About the bag…oh the bag. I visited the Henri Bendel boutique about two months ago because my cravings were in need of a new bag. It’s the first time I use it, and for that, I’ll never listen to my friends again who repeated over and over again to me how I’m too small to be carrying around a tote. They offered me the option to buy a bag my size, which for some reason “my size” meant “the smallest bag in the store please” to them. And they slowly got me into it. Isn’t it lovely? Except I can’t fit my waller, nor my makeup, nor anything, ever. This day I noticed it’d go perfectly paired with this mini skirt, so that meant separation anxiety the rest of the day: I always want my wallet near me. As most of you, I suppose. The shoes are of the few survivors from Milo’s(my dog) fun/alone time.

TORN BUT KNITTED.

——

The secret to this look is finding the most beaten up jean vintage shorts. You get bonus points if they were pants in their past life!! I found mine in a little vintage shop in Los Angeles, and it was the best day of the week when I did because I’d been on a quest to find the perfect jean shorts for the longest time. It takes time, ya’ll. Don’t lose faith.

P.S. Mexican Coca Cola is the best. Period.

COLOR ME NEON (OR NYLON)

——————————————————-

This was the last time I wore these little beauties on my feet and thank God I captured them before they were gone! (my dog bit the right shoe to death after i left him alone for the day). I admit I cried like a big baby when I discovered his mischief, but then I gave it a second thought and I was thankful I was crying over a stupid pair of unworn shoes and not over a senseless boy….I need some condolences from all of you. I was planning on giving them away because I don’t really wear them that much, but now they’re in the trashcan. Poor little left shoe, all alone, perfect, with no pair, and in the trash. Sniff Sniff.

The shirt I got in the mail about 3 days ago (from my Nylon subscription) and I was using it as a sleeping robe (it’s too big and i’m too short) until I discovered it could be paired with this awesome mini skirt from topshop that has been resting in my closet with tags on ever since I got it. I was DYING to wear it and I finally did! Thankyou sun rays!!! Of course I had to make it fit, so I made some modifications to the tee and I was ready for the day.

What do you think? Converse or heels? I usually carry both around because I get tired easily. or maybe my legs are two little pussies that don’t like to be walking around in heels all day long. Wish they could. Standing ovation for Sofia Vergara who walks in 7 inch heels all day, everyday.

Anyway, anyone can get this look! Go snatch a girly semi-formal skirt (or shorts, or pants) and pair it with you’re favorite pajama tee, add a statement necklace+shoes, and you’re ready to walk a runway(not really, but you get the idea of how chic!).

LAYERED ROSES, ACDC, MILO AND MINT.

———————————

The mint portfolio satchel was snatched by my lingering eye on a 7 minute time limit (literally). I had seven minutes until the next muni arrived, and thankfully Urban Outfitters is at the very corner of the stop. All it took was that exquisite color to call my name, (and it did) so I went towards it and invited it home with the rest of my green possessions. i didn’t have time to think twice, so I quickly and anxiously made the decision that I loved it. AND I DO, I’ve been wearing it everyday since I bought it. and one last thing.. may I rub in your face that this beauty was on sale!? …And the last one hanging.

My admiration for Sophia Amoruso, her business tactics,infallible taste and perfect hair bob is beyond my love for fashion, (plus, she’s one of the few human beings that can effectively rock bangs) so I paraded around town in head-to-toe NastyGal for the sake of showing some affection towards that bad bitch.

Sasha’s Beauty Tricks!

So for those of you who have been asking about my make-up or my lips, here you go! A whole section dedicated to beauty and hair. Much love, Sasha.

MY BED. Oh my bed. And how we love each other passionately. For our unconditional love, i had to make some changes to my beauty-morning routine. That’s what you do when you’re in love anyway, right? Make time for your significant other. I had to apply and learn some beauty tricks that would work for both of us (me and my partner/bed) that had been ultimately added to my everyday mornings, for the sake of having even just ten more minutes intertwined with my love.

1. SHOWER AT NIGHT. Not only because it allows us more time together in the morning, but because it makes my hair-styling process easier. After showering, I let my hair air-dry for about an hour while I catch up on emails and homework. After its almost or completely dry, I braid it the french way. I wake up in the morning, unbraid it, spray my roots with JOICO VOLUME MOUSSE, and the rest of my hair with Bedhead Sugar shock spray for that bedhead look that I sport everyday. After applying the products, I pretend I’m Willow Smith. I flip my hair back and forth, TWICE, and there you go!! the prefect messy hair.

WHEN I SHOWER IN THE MORNING (rarely) I LET IT AIR DRY ALSO. THE OUTCOME IS STRAIGHT WITHOUT THE BRAID, BUT I LOVE SILKY HAIR EVEN IF ITS JUST FOR A DAY!!

I never use hot hair curlers or even blow-drying. I hate heat on my head ever since I was thirteen and had the most horrible hair due to my love of messing with chemical hair products. (from perms to blue ends, I had it all, Thanks to my mom who’s a hair stylist).

FACE-

1. Always always always start with sunscreen. If you have acne scars or dark spots and you don’t use it, they WILL become darker. and you WILL age sooner.

FOUNDATION- I’m currently using the Neutrogena skin clearing oil free makeup (I’m prone to pimples), and this foundation covers it all, from a red pimple to a dark spot/scar.

2. My lashes are long (yay!!) but straight (nay :(). I look like a sad dog when they’re straight. So, for the sake of spending less time in the mirror every morning, I curled them permanently. Try it!!! instant beautifier. Even in the morning!

BUT… when I don’t have them permanently curled, I take about 30 seconds pressing the curler on each set of lashes, and apply mascara right after so it catches the curl.

TIP: ***FOR Extra curl, air-dry (warm or hot) your curler for about ten seconds, then curl your lashes. Not too hot though, or you’ll end up with no sight.

SO HERE WE GO… best mascaras according to moi:

1. Loreal Voluminous mascara - I’ve been using this one for YEARS and I always end up coming back to it, even after trying more expensive ones.

2. Benefit Badgal Lash- lots of volume and lots of natural. What’s better than a natural lash with the right amount of volume?

BLUSH- I go subtle. I use the “Benetint” by Benefit cosmetics in “Poppy Pink”, which is a liquid blush tint. You have to swipe it on like you’re a football player ready for a game( ones tripe on each cheek) and blend it as quick as you can!!

BROWS- Gosh. My eyebrows man. Thick, unruly and mischievous They never stay calm, so here’s what I use to spank them: Make-up Forever brow seal. It’s the one that keeps them in place… after trying tons of brow gels.

Plaid and Pockets

My subconscious picked out a blue plaid for the first day of school, and this came back to me when I stumbled upon an old high school picture of my friends and I wearing none other than our blue plaid uniform skirt and one of the coziest sweaters I’ve been inside of in my life- a grey one with letters reading VMCHS across the chest. I’m guessing my subconscious misses its high school days… as do I. “The first day of digital tools class was a mess… a stressful surreal mess. I got in trouble for the most RANNDOM things.” Mean girls, anyone? …That sums up my first day of class: I wore blue plaid, hated digital tools, and I found out I wanna go back to the easy high school days. The end. For today.
