'Pony It Up' Like Jennifer Lopez

Attainable Style! Never shy away from tossing your hair up into a sleek ponytail; it's quick, easy and effortlessly sleek. (Especially on yucky rainy days — just 'pony it up' like Jennifer Lopez.) Beauty Tip: Pulling the hair back from the face will show off your most proudest facial features. Also, do keep your makeup to a minimum. A nude lip and luscious lashes are simple elements aimed to embellish.

Beauty Must-Have: Blue Mascara

Psst! Did you hear? Blue mascara is a beauty must-have for spring - it's darn electrifying!

Blue mascara is my go-to evening eye-enhancer; it's a fierce color splash for sure! And to accomplish the look, I use Maybelline's Great Lash product in royal blue. Additionally, I meticulously line my upper eyelids with liquid black eyeliner for a dramatic look.

Added To My Shopping List!: Maybelline Great Lash Clear Mascara

Beauty Notes! Makeup Artist Carmindy revealed to Glamour magazine an interesting beauty trick: Apply Great Lash Clear Mascara for a super shiny finish; it’s like “hair gel for lashes,” Carmindy said.

Yeah-I've seen this product in the beauty aisle, but drove my shopping cart right past it. I never thought clear mascara would be of any good use to me, or my lashes. Honestly, when I think *GEL* I think sticky-icky. And why would I want sticky lashes?

Although, truth be told, mascara is the one single makeup product that I splurge on, because fabulous lashes rock! With that said, I’ll purchase Maybelline's clear mascara this week and share my personal thoughts in a later post. Wish me luck ;)
