How To Start Wearing Lipstick!

 
HI there! Lipstick has been in for a while now and I know not everyone is comfortable with wearing lipstick...I know I wasn't. Maybe I got more comfortable with wearing it as I got older but I did go through all of this to make myself comfortable with wearing lipstick. I wanted to share with you how to start wearing it and becoming more comfortable. The best thing to be is to start with a sheer lip product and move gradually towards something more bold and full coverage. I hope this video was helpful and DON'T FORGET to Instagram those pictures of you with lipstick on and #PaulinaLippies! I can't wait to see all your beautiful faces and like and comment on all of your pictures! I hope you enjoyed this video and thank you so much for watching!

Hi beauties! So today I'm going to show you how I contour and highlight my face using drugstore products! I know there are a TON of videos about contouring and highlighting out there but everyone has their own techniques to how they achieve a contoured and highlighted face. So I thought why not add one more contour and highlight tutorial to the list! I love creating this look BUT I definitely do not contour and highlight my face everyday. I only do this if I'm going out, going to a special event or occasion, and if I know I'm going to have my picture taken. I think contouring and highlighting is amazing! You can really transform the way your face looks and slim your face down just with some makeup! It's just like art...love it! With all that being said...I hope you enjoyed this video and thank you so much for watching!

Hi everyone! So I thought it would be fun to create a perfume series...meaning nails inspired by different bottle of perfumes. For this week I created this nail tutorial based on the Dot by Marc Jacobs. I just LOVE Marc Jacobs perfumes and they have such fun and cute packaging. I already created another nail look based on the Daisy by Marc Jacobs and you can see it on either of my Instagrams (listed above). I hope you liked this design. I had fun with it because it was something different and creative. Watch the video above to see how I created it!
 
Also, I created a new Instagram, which is @paulina_alaiev, follow it to see different makeup looks I create, outfit of the days, my meals, new things I buy...LOL basically anything AND I'll post when I have new things up on either my channel or blog! So follow @paulina_alaiev for easier access to see what I post!

Copper & Orange Spring Makeup

HI! So I have not posted anything here in way too long! I've been concentrating mostly on my YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/paulinaalaiev), but I decided I’m going to start posting more often and about all different things. So im excited about that and definitely follow my blog and subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can stay tuned to what I post next :)! Sooo, with that being said I wanted to show you one of the looks I created based on a spring trend I’ve been seeing on the runways. It is a copper eye shadow paired with a bright orange lip and this just screams spring so I am loving this look! Check it out and let me know what you think! And definitely give this look a try!
 

I was inspired by this look on model Lindsey Wixson for DSquared, Spring 2014:
