Holiday Gifts/Stocking Stuffers !

Since the holidays are among us and everyone is going crazy looking for the perfect gifts for the people they love, including myself. I decided to share some stuff I found online and in stores that would be perfect gifts for your guys and gals. 

Girl Gifts:

Sephora has a ton of cute little stocking stuffers and gifts. These are the ones I liked the most.

I got these pictures from their website. How perfect is this little straightener? Who wouldn't love one of these to keep in their purse? and it is only 29$!

Then they have the Naked Basics Palette for 29$ as well. I think this is another perfect gift for someone who is always on the go and needs this in their bag. 

I love this facial cleanser! This little packaging is so cute as well! Perfect stocking stuffer! and it is only 10$!!

This mini perfume duo from Juicy Couture is also a great gift! It is only 19$!!

I also found these in the Sephora store on Black Friday they are sold out online but they might still have it in stores.

The lipgloss on the left is 12$ and it comes in 4 different colors I believe. 

The package of 3 on the right was 10$ and it comes with 3 different color lipglosses 

These are both from Bite Beauty.

Then I went exploring on the Michael Kors page and I found out they were having a sale of up to 50% off! I don't know until when they are having this sale but they have great deals! 

This bag is only 164$! 

Guys:

Buying gifts for a guy can sometimes be difficult, but here are some great gifts I found.

There are watches on the Michael Kors page for only 144$! This one is my favorite

I also found these Nike sweatpants. These are great for any guy at any age! Who doesn't love a good pair of sweats? These are only 42$ at Dick's Sporting Goods and come in different colors!

They also have great shirts and sweaters for guys at Forever 21 men and great jackets at Armani Exchange.

Hope you liked the gift ideas and thanks for reading Gammies! 

Pink Sunset Eyes

Hey guys! So I created this look yesterday and wanted to share with you guys what products I used so you can achieve this look as well. 

EYES:

 First you start off with a matte Taupe color in the crease. I used ES62 from Morphe Brushes. Use a fluffy blender brush to blend it all over the crease. Then to deepen the crease I used a darker matte brown. I used ES63 from Morphe Brushes . Use the same fluffy blender brush. Then I went in with a firm eye shadow brush from Morphe brushes and packed on a light satin pink. I used Cupcake eye shadow form Makeup Geek. Then I used another firm eye shadow brush and packed on the color ES59 from Morphe Brushes on the outer corner and middle of my lid. Then to finish off, I grabbed a blender brush I used Mac 217. Then grabbed some more of the ES63 color and blended it into my outer corner and into the crease until everything was blended in. 

LIPS:

MAC Soar Lip Liner

MAC Brave Lipstick

NARS turkish delight lipgloss

Smokey Cat Eye with Nude Lips

So I've been M.I.A for a while busy with school and work but I'm back! Last night I was playing around with my Naked 2 Palette and decided to create this look. It's a black/grey smokey cat eye. I decided it would look nice with Nude lips.

I will link all product used at the end.

(Btw the white thing sticking out of my ear is my earphone bud)

First step: I like doing my eye makeup before doing my face just because you can clean everything up after and if eyeshadow falls out onto your cheeks, it won't mess anything up. So first off, prime your eyelids with a base. I used Mac Painterly Paint Pot. 

Second Step: Take 2 pieces of scotch tape and put it on the back of your hand a couple of times so it wont stick so hard to your eyes, then take the pieces of tape and tape them on the corner of your eye going up to your eyebrow to make a cat eye shape. Make sure the tapes are at the same angles because one can come out different shape and the other. Just make sure the tapes are somewhat aligned to one another. 

Third Step: Grab your Naked 2 Palette (if you don't have this palette, use any taupe brown you have) I used shade Tease in the Naked 2 Palette. Grab a fluffy blending brush and apply this to your crease and buff it out. I used Sigma E-40 (tapered blending brush)

Fourth Step: Take the shade Pistol in the Naked 2 Palette (or grab any dark silver shade) and apply this all over the lid with a shadow brush. I used sigma E-55 brush (eye shading brush) To achieve more intensity of this color I sprayed my brush with MAC Fix+ and applied the eye shadow. This will intensify the color. 

Fifth Step: Take another smaller blending brush (I used MAC 217 brush) and take color Blackout from the palette (or any matte black eye shadow) and start blending the color from the outer corner blending it to the crease (start where the tape is, and start blending it in). Keep take more shadow and blending until there are no harsh lines and the black is very intensified. 

Sixth Step: If you want a more intense smokey eye, take off the tapes, grab a black eyeliner, (I used Avon Blackest Night G04 Pencil Liner) or you can use MAC Smolder Eye Pencil and line the upper eyelid and trace the outer line where the tape was. Then grade a pencil brush or any small brush to blend that eye liner in. I also lined my waterline with my eyeliner.

Seventh Step: Take the color Verse form the Naked 2 Palette and take a Pencil brush or any small brush and pack the color in the inner corner of your eye. I also passed the shadow with my pencil brush on my bottom lash line. 

Eighth Step: Grab the color Foxy from the palette and put this as your brow bone highlight. Right under the arch of your eyebrow.

You should have achieved a look similar to mine! 

For lips you do either a Nude lip or even a very red matte color. 

I used L.A Girl Cosmetics Glazed Lip Paint in the color Whisper.

This should somewhat look like your final look. Comment on what you'd like to see next! I can use your ideas :)
