Let's talk about how hot it has been lately... or not.... it's too painful. Where I live, it has been in the 90s every single day (which may not be thatttt hot for some of you, but I'm personally dying). Because of this, my motivation for applying makeup has plummeted only because I know I'm just going to sweat my makeup off -_- But fear not! Here's my makeup routine when I'm running late but need to have a little something on my face and need my hair to not look like a total mess.

Here's all the products I used in the video! :) 

The oil blotting sheets I used are from DAISO. They've definitely come in handy lately! The toner is Olay oil minimizing toner with witch hazel. The sunscreen is the L'Oreal Silky Sheer Oil Free Sunscreen with SPF 30. I used my ELF eyebrow kit in medium and primed my eyes with the NYX HD Eyeshadow Primer.

 The bronzer I used is ELF's Warm Bronzer. The mascara is L'Oreal voluminous mascara (it's in limited edition packaging but usually the packaging is black and gold!). The brown eye liner I used is Rimmel's Scandalize in bronze. 

 So for the concealer, I believe it's from Coastal Scents. But you can buy these type of palettes from any wholesale makeup website. For my foundation, I used the Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation and for my blush, I used Sleek's blush in "Rose Gold". Finally for my lips, I applied MAC's tinted lip balm in "Pink Fish" (This was also limited edition but you can easily find a dupe for this! :) I chose this because it's a nice neutral color and offers an SPF of 15!). 

And finally, here's the finished look! Let me know what you think of this video! Also, don't forget to visit my channel to see other videos and be sure to SUBSCRIBE. It would really make my day :)

Cold Busting Juice Recipe: Get Over a Cold or Flu Faster and Boost Your Immunity

I feel like I've been fighting the same cold for a few weeks now. Exactly two weeks ago, I woke up with a scratchy throat and a little congestion. As the day progressed, my cold hit me hard. I barely made it home during my commute because I was feeling so sick! I had a full-blown cold; chills, achy-ness, a stuffy nose, a vicious cough, sore throat, and severe exhaustion. YUCK!

I started to feel better after about a week (which is typical), and right when I was almost feeling normal, this past Sunday, I started feeling sick AGAIN!!! I had some chills, a little bit of a fever, worse congestion, and a bad cough. Feeling fed up, I decided to be more proactive with my cold.

So I hopped on PINTEREST and look over juicing recipes for a cold. After looking at a couple, I started noticing a pattern of ingredients. Combining this with what I already had in stock in my fridge, I came up with my own concoction. So here is the recipe for my cold or flu busting juice!

 Ingredients:

1 - Large Apple

2 - Oranges

1/2 - Lemon 

4 - Organic Carrots

2 - Orange Bell Peppers

1 - Piece of Ginger (about half the size of your thumb)

1/2 oz - Apple Cider Vinegar 

*I'm using the Jack LaLanne Juicer. 

Here is are all of my fruits and vegetables prepped and ready to go into the juicer! (side note: you don't need to cut them this small. I just got a little enthusiastic. The pieces just need to be small enough that they fit down the chute. Also, I keep a bag nearby to put all the pulp/extra bits in. I'm assuming it can't be good for the sink to put all that extra stuff down it!) 

And here is the finished product! It was nice and tasty! Not overly sweet, but not too vegetable-tasting, if you know what I mean. It also made a good amount, so I had enough to drink all afternoon. I also wanted to add, be careful with the ginger! The taste of ginger is very strong so be sure to add little, tiny pieces at a time if you're unsure. I would also do the same with the apple cider vinegar! 

This drink is full vitamins, particularly vitamin A and C, which are very helpful for getting over a cold or flu and boosting your immunity :)
