First Impressions & Demo: Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 HR Shadow



I got this from Kmart for about $7. I don't think it's out anywhere else yet so if you find some at a local Kmart, GRAB THEM! They're definitely worth your money! They last ALL DAY!! The color is beautiful! Great for everyday wear. I just filmed a tutorial using this (you probably saw pics of it at the end) and will be posting that up very soon!

I have oily lids & this pleasantly surprised me. It lasts all day! The color lasts all day. Doesn't smudge at all. Of course if you rub at it, it'll come off ... so don't smudge on it. LOL. =)

Anymore questions? Comments? Leave it down for us and we'll get back to you ASAP!

Thanks for reading & watching!

Love,
Nalani

My First OOTD!!!



Nyob zoo hlub's!!!! :D
I hope this simple OOTD was helpful! I wanted to show you guys how I would pair the heels that I bought from Target a couple weeks ago, and it was also requested! I hope this gave you a little taste of what I like, I'm just currently getting into scarves, so it was a little weird for me! Haha. But I thought it went okay with the outfit right? As you can see from the video, I'm a super simple and casual dresser, a jeans and a t-shirt will do. Again, I hope you that you enjoyed this simple OOTD and there will be more to come!

Leather Jacket & Scarf are from Forever 21
White top and Cream belt are from H&M
Jeans from Marshalls
Faux fur purse from Call it Spring in MOA
Booties/Heels from Target!

Here is a picture of all three pairs of shoes I picked up from Target! Sorry! I haven't been feeling like doing hauls for the recent things I've been purchasing! The one that I wore in the video is the pair in the middle! If you haven't picked up a pair run to your nearest Target and do so! <3

LOVE,
Nkuana
