Trendy Beauty - Lip Stains

Lip stains, one of the newest trends in beauty, they are great because they are long lasting, don't come off on food and drink or other Lips, and let you throw your favorite gloss over the top.

The only set back?

Price. Lipstick can be a dollar but stains start at ten.

My solution nontoxic washable markers. YEP. Cheap lots of colors and easy, through some cherry lipstick or bonne belle over the top and you are dazzling.

Go ahead try it. Don't worry it will be our little secret!

New use for Markers!?

Welcome to the New Ultimate Destination for all things Fashion, Beauty, and Fabulousness

Hello! Let me introduce myself. 

My name is Cara. 

I love Martha Stewart- the DIY goodess. I love Perez Hilton- the obvious queen of all Media. 

I love makeup. All things hair; products, dye, cuts- you name it. Fashion! Can't get enough!

I have been googling for my dream blog for ages. I'm always looking for photos of the lastest trends in fashion and beauty, and I find myself frustrated by the lack of REAL ideas. Sure, if I have 300$ to plunk down I can look totally hip, but I'm working no a recessionistas budget. 

I wanted to create this blog with the intention of providing CHEAP (and I really mean Cheap!)

EASY and of course flawless ideas for how to be the best you!
