How to get PERFECT legs

Hi everyone :) So its been awhile since I posted something up but I've been so busy. But anyway today's post is how to get perfect legs! My friends and lots of other people always ask me how are my legs so soft and smooth! So I've decided to share with you all how to get amazing looking legs!- Tiara.B xox

I always like to use a body scrub before I shave my legs. This is just to help get rid of any dead skin and to help my legs be extra smooth.

When I shave my legs I always use conditioner. Yes, it sounds a bit weird but trust me it does wonders for you skin and it gives a much softer result on your legs than body wash.

So I prefer using a man shaver rather than a women shaver. I just feel it gives a cleaner cut and my hair doesn't grow back as fast.

Last of all this is probably the most important step out of everything. Moisturize your legs everyday!!!! I think this is one of the main reasons my skin is soft because ever since I was young I've always moisturized my legs everyday! If you start today, your legs will gorgeous in the long run.

Just some pictures of my legs :) Enjoy

So Brittany did my nails for the wedding I went to! They were absoulutly gorgeous and thank you so much for doing them! Its quite funny because she loved them so much she decided to do them on herself so we were like twinnys!!!

I hope you get some inspiration. -Tiara.B xox

Fact about me: Bungy jump

I've decided to start a new series where i tell you a little fact about myself. I think this will be a great way for you guys to get to know me better, so keep your eyes open for new facts every now and then :) One of the things New Zealand is famous for, is the world known Bungy jump.

Sigma Brushes

If you are looking for some really good brushes, I would recommend Sigma brushes!!!! If you are a beginner, I would get the Sigma Travel Kit. These were the first brushes i purchased and it had all the necessary brushes for a beginner and a extra bonus was that i could travel with it! The packaging is stylish and the holder that it comes with is leather so it will last for a long period of time and the actual brushes are super soft. They are really easy to clean and look brand new every time! - Tiara.B xox

1. First apply a base coat, I used Sally Hansen Salon Manicure Base Coat.
2. Then paint nails a solid white, I used Sally Hansens Hard as Nails in the colour White On.
3. Once dry apply sticky tape around fingers so it saves cleaning time for the ombre effect we will do later. (Optional)
4. After you tape all your fingers use a sponge, I used a makeup sponge and cut it to the size of my nail.
5. On half of the sponge paint on a bright pink, I used Australis Bombshell and the other half was a bright yellow by Sugar Baby Whatever.
6. Then sponge it onto your nails until they are blended, and then add a top coat I used Sally Hansens Salon Manicure Top Coat to blend the colours together.
7.When they are dry take off the tape and clean up any mess on your fingers with nail polish remover.
8. Once it is completely dry I used the Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in Black to draw on the palm trees.
9. Lastly I waited for it to completely dry and then added another layer of the top coat to finish it off.

Celebrity Beauty: Kate Middleton

Well since all the fuss is about the new Royal Family, I thought why not base my next post on the gorgeous Kate Middleton! Her look is very natural and her eyes are very smokey and smudged out with eyeliner. She has lovely peachy cheeks that give off the pretty flush and pink nude lips to match or just some gloss to enhance her natural lip colour. Kate's look is very sophisticated and simple, and is perfect if you like the "no makeup, makeup look." Its a great everyday look, and I recommend it to people who are in a rush in the morning and don't have enough time because it's a quick easy look to do, and it still makes you look beautiful! I mean, look at Kate? -Tiara.B xox

Cat Eye & Red Lips

For a glamorous look suited for every occasion, this makeup will certainly make you look like a star!!! I mean who doesn't love a cat eye and bold red lips to match? To see a tutorial click here. Some tips for creating a perfect cat eye is using a gel eyeliner, and I like to use a E05- Eyeliner brush from Sigma & a E65- Small Angle brush also from Sigma. I would also put on a lip liner before putting on a red lipstick as that will just bring the look together and use concealer just to clean up the edges and prevent the lipstick from bleeding. Don't forget the lashes!- Tiara.B xox
