    As a beauty guru myself, we all know that we should not spend a fortune when it comes to makeup, because we might not stick to it. So I was looking for make up, I always chose makeup that was in my budget, because I don't want to spend a lot that I know I probably won't stick to. When it comes to make up, some of us just want to go out an buy expensive make up, well that not the case for me, so I decided to do something that some beginners can use and know what to use. You do not need to spend a lot on something that you know you won't really use. So I create a list of some items that beginners can use, from eye shadow to eyeliner, but know this you can get this at your local drug stores or your local dollar trees, it not that hard and plus you will be saving yourself alot of money and also you can try the products as well.

1) Eye shadow
    Eye shadow comes in all colors, whichever color you like, you can buy them at your local drugstores or basically anywhere. when I pick out eye shadow, I only like to buy the colors that I like to wear, because it goes with my skin tone. But anyways, when you think about buying eye shadow, think of the price and the colors that you will actually wear.

2) Blush
    Blush is the one thing that I don't wear, because to me, it not natural. It something that I won't wear. But when it comes to blush it comes in many colors that you can chose. But there one thing that I like about blush, it  you are out of highlighter or eye shadow, you can use blush as one of those alternatives, which I actually love.
   
3) Eyeliner
    When it comes to eyeliner, I am the one that loves eyeliner, because I love when I am able to have my eyes dark. But when it comes to eyeliner for any of you, there are so many colors for you to choose from, but some of it cost money. So when you decided on the color you want, make sure it the color you want. I choose the color black like always.
   
4) Lipstick
    Lipstick is not one of my forte, because I don't like it. But I decided to include it in the beginners. To me there is no reason for anyone to spend a fortune on lipstick or any cosmetics for that matter, because to me all cosmetics are all the same, with the same formula and basically the same. Some might have different formula and other may not. The ones that I look for are the ones, that have vitamins and also sunscreen for my lips. My lips are everything.

5) Lip liner
    When it comes to lip liner, it always good to have, especially when you just want to outline your lips. There one thing about lip liner, it comes in many colors and many forms. But to me, I like to smooth lip liner that goes smooth, soft and won't clump.

6) Highlighter
    It never a dull moment when its comes to highlighter, when you think of highlighter you think of highlighting a book. Anyways, there are many colors. when it comes to choosing, you just have to make sure you pick the right one.

7) Coutour
    When I first heard of this, I didn't think nothing of it, then there is bronzer, which I didn't think of either. There are so many forms of makeup out there, that I didn't think of ever exist. It comes in 3 colors if you are lucky.

8) Foundation
    Where do I start when it comes to foundation. I don't like foundation because it does not do my pores and skin justice. So I try to stay away from these. But I will wear very little of it. Foundations comes in many colors, so you should not have a problem founding your color. I also suggest if you do, try to pick the light one and also the medium shade  or any shade for that matter to mixed together in order to get your shade.

9) Concealer
    If you have any rash, pimples and many other other scars on your face, this is the one thing you can use. Just make sure you find the right shade and also make sure you know where you want to put them. When it comes to concealer, it a little tricky because you don't want it to be too light or to dark under your eyes. So when it comes to this one, you have to watch out.
   
10) Primer
    When it comes to primer, it comes in many forms and brands. This goes under your foundation to make sure your makeup go on evenly, but it up to you if you would like to use it.

    When it comes to make up, it not always easier to make the right decisions, but it also make the right decisions for your bank account and make sure you will use the products. When I use the products, I always try to use what I will use not just because everyone else has it. It always good to make good decisions when you know your bank account is at stake. As a beginner myself, I always go after the products that is acne and sensitive skin safe, which is hard because not all products are for that. So I go after the makeup that I always use, which I can find anywhere.

    As some of you may know, I used to belong to a site called Polyvore, it was a fashion site where I could create looks for my blog and many other things. Since it been sold this year, I have been heart broken, because it was where I could create looks that I could see for my blog and instagram. I have been looking for a site where I could use to create my looks, and I could not find none, until I decided to look. Then I found a site called URSTYLE, it is just like Polyvore.

    I am going to be honest with you and I won't lie to you. When I first heard Polyvore was sold and it wont be no more. I literally cry, because it was a place where I could create looks for you guys, do gifts guides for you all and even do my logos for my blog. But when it ended, it actually hurt. Now that I found a new site where I can create new looks, new guide, and new everything. I will share with you all what will happen. So Goodbye Polyvore! Hello URSTYLE.

          I have never in my right mind, never decided to actually redo my blog. The reason why is because I never thought I had to, but when you look at your blog differently, you tend to realize it now would be the time to have it redone. So when I was searching for a template or someone that could help me with my blog, which was hard for me to do, because I didn't like none of the templates that I saw, until one spoke to me, which I really love. When I first saw it, I literally melt, because it spoke to me, and it spoke to my blog and I like it. So I inquire someone about the template that I like and she wrote back and I told what I wanted  and she added a couple of things, which I totally love. When I ask if she could added some custom blog work, she did, it became a totally different template which I love. I love the fact she was so nice, her name is Eve, the template is on Etsy,  it called Rosamund.
    When I first seen the template, I fell in love because it was the template that I always wanted and I knew that I could not do it myself, but I found someone that could do for me, or at least already have the template and I did. When I first decided that that I was going to be switch over, it was fun and also a little heartbreaking, because I have always been with weebly and but the site is a little to much for me to handle, especially when there is no designer out there that can do a template that I wanted. So I had to make the decision to move to blogger. When it came to the blog, I like it much more better then I did before. When it comes to time in making the decision to redo your site, don't wait, just do it, because it you will like much better like I did. I do highly recommend Eve from Fearne Creative Design, she does good work and I love her. She is patient with you and if you need any help she will be willing to help you. If you are having a problem with your site, she will help you out. So Please use her if you decides to redo your blog. I will always use her. So please check her out, https://www.etsy.com/shop/FearneCreativeDesign

         I have never saw anyone make one of these Fish Bowl Pumpkin, until I saw one being made on HGTV YouTube channel. I instantly fell in love with it, because I thought it was cool, and also I like it in general, it beats all those little candy trays that we get or see at Halloween time. When it came to making something like this, I like it, and would I make it again. I would say, yes, I would. It was easy to made, all you need are simple items, which I think it would be cute if I would of made small pumpkins as well, but I did not. But I will next year for sure. Every Halloween, I get kinda stuck because I don't know what to make when it comes to diy or just anything. I always try to do my best.
    When it comes to reality, I don't want to copy anyone, because I think we are all capable of creating our own, but I decided to make this because it was cute and I like it and it makes the candy trays look like they are there for decoration, while the pumpkin is sitting there laughing at the candy trays, because we chose him. The reason why is he is so cute. I love the fact that when HGTV made there, it was easy to make, which was fun. Let's take a peek of what you need in order to make this little guy.

Items you would need.

Fish Bowl (does not matter what size, you decide that one your own)
Black contact paper
green glitter paper for the stem, ( which I did not use) 2 of them
A stick to hold the stem
Scissors
Candy
Glue





    Take your black contact paper and make a 3 triangles, 2 big for the eyes and a small one for the nose and you also need to make a mouth for your pumpkin. You need to take your fish bowl and put the face that you made on the fish bowl. Then you take your green glitter paper and make a stem, then you take your stick and you put your stem that you made on the stick by glue the stem on each side of the stick. You need to put your candy in the pumpkin fill all the way to the top then put your stem in the middle to look like a pumpkin. I have link the video down at the bottom, please take a look at, so you can get the feel of how it was made.

Then you take your green glitter paper and make a stem, then you take your stick and you put your stem that you made on the stick by glue the stem on each side of the stick. You need to put your candy in the pumpkin fill all the way to the top then put your stem in the middle to look like a pumpkin. I have link the video down at the bottom, please take a look at, so you can get the feel of how it was made.

        When it comes to fall, there are certain things that I see that should be fall appropiate when it comes to the food baking. I see cookies, there are so many cookies out there that have flavor like for example, cinnamon, caramel, and pumpkin spice. I see those flavors that should be for fall. I love cookies that taste good, which not alot of sugar, cause to me that overdoing it. It basically takes out the taste of the flavor of the cookie. During fall or should I say Halloween, I like to make cookies, that represent the holiday that it in. So this year I made Pumpkin Spice Cookies, which were good. I like them. So I decided to share them with you and show you how to make them. They are quite easy. So let's take a peek of what you need.

Items you would need:
1) Sugar Cookies dough
2) Pumpkin Spice Seasoning
3) Butter
4) Cookies Sheet
5) Preheat your oven

    When it comes to making these, they are quite fun to make. When I make them, I made the Sugar Cookies dough first, which you can go to your cake aisle at your local grocery store and pick it up. Making these cookies, are easy, especially when you dont really have the time to make it the way you want it. If you are gluten free and want sugar free, there should be some that has gluten and sugar free, (Note: just look closely to the label). When it you get done mixing the sugar cookies, just add the pumpkin spice and start mixing again. When you get done, just roll out the dough and start making your cookies, with me, I simply roll them into a ball and put them on a cookie  sheet. It was easy, and I like the way that they turn out. So if you decide to make them, Please use #pumpkinspicecs or #pumpkincaptivatestyles

        When it comes to October we are all ready for that fall wardrobe, especially when we all can go and buy the new trend that are coming out. I am not much of a trend girl. I like the fact that I can easily go in my closet and create new items, which I love. But I like the fact that if I need something, I just can put something together. There one thing about trends that I can't stand is that there are trends everyday, inorder to be accepted you must follow that trend, which  to be honest, I don't care about being accepted and also I don't care about trends, because I think it just a waste of money. So I decided to create something  that you can create from your own closet. I know some of you may have the same exact item or you might have something similar or something like it. So here are a couple of looks for you.

1)  There is no surprise that we all have something like this is our closet. I know I do. Well not exactly, like it, but I have something similar and I like it. I like the fact that this outfit can go either way, it can be wore for any season.


2)  I love this outfit, it brings fall to your wardrobe. It means that fall is actually here. I may not like brown, because I don't, but this look, bring out the fall like it should. I like the look I would wear it.
3)  I think this look is perfect for fall, I like the look, that it brings to the whole wardrobe. I don't see this look at all, when it comes to styling. Which I don't know why. I like this look and yes, I would wear it for fall and winter.

4) This look is something this should be wore for all seasons, because it that type of look that should be wore for all seasons. I would wore this look. I would also separate the pieces that are in the look to create a whole new look.

5) When it came this look, I wasn't sure about it, bit I took pieces from other looks to create this fall look, and I love how it turn out, because it can be wore for fall or winter. Plus it matches from head to toe.

When it comes to dressing up your home for fall, it comes to my attention that some of you are having a hard time coming to the point to when to decorate your home, with me, I always decorate in the middle of September. But I have decided that I will start decorating in the middle of August, because I don't want my fall decor or Halloween decor together anymore, I am going to start separating them, which will be a good thing, because it will give me more time to decorate for fall and Halloween. Since this year, I have been behind on fall and Halloween this year, But I won't be behind on Christmas. So when I was doing some diy for fall and Halloween. I decided to do things different this year. I have decided to go beyond what I could do. So I created something that you guys could use in your home. So let's a peek on what I have for you.

The items you would need:
1) Leaf Tray
2) Faux Leaves
3) Faux Pumpkins
4) Glue

    What you need to do, is take your leaf tray, and take your faux and pumpkins and arrange them to however you like, but make sure it the way that you want  them to be. Also make sure you glue them down, because sometimes it does not always work. So please make sure you test out alot of glue to make sure that they stay. When I done it, I went though alot of glue, but then I found the right one, which ones you might ask, e6000, but I wasn't to sure if I wanted to use it, because I didn't want to glue the leaves or the pumpkins permanent on the leaf tray. But anyway, when you do this, make sure it what you want.

Are you going to do this project? If so, please share photos and also please use the #captivatestylesdiy.
