So it is the time for New Year Resolutions and let me tell you, I am here for all of this newness. As I have a lot planned for the business side of things, for me and my beauty goals, well, I could definitely use a few kicks in the tail here, especially as I am already on the “do more outfit posts kick!†So rather than list out ten beauty resolutions, I thought I would give myself a singular New Year Beauty Resolution- Going Bold.
A New Year Beauty Resolution: Going Bold
If you have been following the spring trend reports and the beauty ones then you may have caught that there were quite a few bold statements and trends on the runway! Thanks to the kick in the behind from Sally Beauty to make this happen, I have this fun post here for you! Let me share with you what a few of these resolutions and trends are and how I am going to rock it.
Please bear with me, as I am NOT a pro but a lover of the beauty products! If you have tips to make it pop even better, drop those below! 
Bold Lips in both RED and Pink
Rocking a red lip has been the greatest challenge for me and I have documented this on the blog many times before, but I AM GOING to do this! You hear me!?! Hehehe
How I make it work:
- When putting on my BBCream or foundation, I will make sure that I apply this to my lips as a primer.
- Then I line AND fill in my lips with the liner- for maximum staying power (also I do not have full lips, so this helps me cheat a bit).
- BLOT.
- Then I apply my lipstick to make this work!
- VOILA, fancy lips in both a red or pink hue!
What I Used: Real Colors Hydra Lips Waterproof Gel Lip Liner in Pinup Pink with Femme Couture Ultra Hydrating Lip Colour in Fabulous Fuchsia and Palladio Retractable Lip Liner in Red Rose with Real Colors Hydra Gloss Stick in Shock It To Me
A Strong Cat Eye
Now, I am used to playing around with fun and fancy color eyeliners, HOWEVER a strong cat eye? I am not toooo used to, especially in black. BUT, a new year is all about trying and testing out new things, right? And since it is trending on the runways, I had to give it a whirl or two or … who knows! RIGHT.
How I make it work:
- Starting from the inner corner of my eye, I create a fine line
- To make my wing, I follow the bottom lash line, working from the inside out! I do not want to get tooo fancy, so I keep it just a bit playful.
- After I wing it, I connect both lines and fill in!
- Please note, this does take practice and I am normally used to pencil, but love the look of a liquid liner!
What I Used: Palladio Herbal Liquid Eyeliner in Shimmer Black
Color on the nails
Usually, I keep a clean nail. USUALLY. However with this new Marsala color of the year, I had to figure a way to fancy this into my life. You all seemed to cheer this on over on FB, so I am giving it a whirl. SO I am giving my nails a bold look, in this FingerPaints color that was almost SPOT ON for Marsala!
What I Used: FingerPaints Nail Polish in Free Form Fawn
SO these are a few ways that I am making this work for me for the New Year- please hold me to it! And guess what? All of my tools and colors used you can cop at Sally Beauty!
I will also be trying different hues of pink and red, a stronger cat eye- out of my comfort zone and bold shadows and nails, but these are JUST a few!
