Babe Cave

DIY Makeup Room / Vanity

This project was fun, easy, & therapeutic! I’ve always wanted a MakeUp room & now here you have it . Everything was pretty much affordable but if you can find a cheaper route go for it , ex: the mirror cost me the most , if you can find one at a thrift store I would suggest that ! The “eyelash picture” you see cost $20 at Hobby Lobby but I recreated it for literary a $1 . Before I created this space I always thought I had to spend 100s of dollars but nope not the case ! So I hope this helps you create your future BABE CAVE !

Beauty Hack

 

Do you have thick eyebrows ?

Do they look like “SheWolfe” eyebrows by the end of the day ?

Did you happen to run out of eyebrow gel?

If YES! Then this hack is for you!

Yes ma’am that is a jar of Eco styling gel! Yes ma’am I use it to lay down my eyebrows! When I say them bad boys stay intact all day, they seriously do not move.

One day I ran out of eyebrow gel and before I could panic I notice I have hair gel.  Ever since then I have not have to buy eyebrow gel.

 

Straighten w/NO HEAT!

This is my hair before I straighten it . As you can tell  it is a little worn out and slightly damage.

So this is synthetic hair, I can not put a lot of heat on the hair because it will damage it completely. The simple trick to straightening synthetic hair is “HOT WATER”!!! Who would’ve thought ! I literally took a pot of boiling hot water, put it on my wig hair, & let it dry.

imageThe finished product still had waves in it but for the most part it got straight due to the fact I did not use a flat iron.

L’Oreal Pro-Matte

I have had this foundation for about a year and have not used it!!!
I recently started working at a new Job and the first girl I saw had flawless make-up. I asked her what she used and I could not believe my ears when she said it was “Pro-Matte”
I was excited because I already had it, so the next day I instantly tried it ….

👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾
😒 I wasn’t as impressed, the make up lasted all day but gives an ashy look which isn’t good for pictures the good thing is it has a good full coverage !
I would recommend this foundation for lighter complected skin tones !
Overall it’s ok but not the best.

New Wig New Me

Alpine Meadow Meadow Wig

(Lace Closure Wig)

imageThis is the wig off my  Head.  It came with the curls already in it which I love. I tweezed the part to make it thicker and look my “natural”!

image

This is my foundation I laid it nice and flat so the wig isn’t bumpy !

image

Wow! Omg I love it to death !!! I mean are you kidding me?! & not to mention it was less than $50. I think I could’ve did my personal part straighter but I can fix that later! But for the most part overral 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
