Take Action Against Tyson Foods!

May 9, 2012
This post is not beauty related, and I am sorry about that, but this is something that I felt really needs to be said. I posted this on my Facebook, sent out a message on Youtube, I emailed the link to a bunch of people, and I am posting this here. Obviously I think this is of utmost importance. As I am writing this, I am literally sobbing. As some of you may know, I am a major animal lover. I have been vegetarian since August 2010, I do not support animal testing, and I am an animal welfare activist. Well, I just received this email from one of the organizations I am on the email list for, Compassion Over Killing. They emailed me a video from the Humane Society (I am subscribed to them on Youtube and saw the video had been posted, but did not watch it) that showed the conditions of the pigs that are destined to be Tyson ham. I have seen a lot of animal cruelty videos, but I have never seen one that upset me this much, to the point that I am crying outloud, gasping at what I am seeing, and watching through half-closed eyes because I don't want to see what is on the screen. Never have I seen so many sadistic, heartless people! When something says "Viewer discretion advised" or something along those lines, I do not pay attention to it because I can stand the sight of a lot of horrible things, but this video shows some of the worst animal cruelty I have ever seen. I strongly caution you before watching this video. 
 
 Below is the link to both the video and the petition against Tyson foods. Please, at the very least sign the petition and boycott Tyson. Signing the petition takes less than a minute, and the more pressure that is put on Tyson, the sooner they will change their horrible ways.

MAC & Animal Testing

May 7, 2012
I have been under the impression for years that MAC was a cruelty-free makeup brand. Well, I have just heard wrong. MAC sells its products in China, where it is required by law that cosmetics are tested on animals. Because of this, MAC is now on my Naughty List. Luckily, I have not ever bought MAC cosmetics. The very few products that I have from them were products that my mom bought and didn't like so she gave them to me. I am happy that I have not supported their awful practices. Please ema...

Dailylook.com Review

April 22, 2012
For those of you who have never heard of Daily Look, this is a must-see website in my opinion. 

 Every day, they have at least one look that is on sale and you have 36 hours to buy it before the sale ends and you have to pay full price. I love how much work is put into the pictures, too, because it isn't just a model standing against a white background. They really take their time making sure every picture is perfect. You can always go back and see yesterday's look or looks from past days by c...

My Top 11 Nail Polishes This Spring!

April 22, 2012
Spring has sprung and I have some of my go-to nail polishes this spring to show you. I chose 11 because I couldn't choose just 10! Anyways, enjoy! :)

1. Pampolina Purple by OPI
 
I love purple (it's my favorite color :D) and this color is just gorgeous. OPI's nail polish formulas are great because they don't chip like other nail polish brands and they have a vast amount of colors. This color I have been wearing for the past month (since I got it), either on my fingers or toes. 
 
2. Re-Fresh Mint ...

Long Time No See! :)

April 18, 2012
Sorry I have been gone for a month.... There's really a lot of reasons why I left for a while, but I'll just tell you a few. The main thing was a personal family issue that is now resolved, but also my camera qulaity isn't the best for makeup tutorials, and all of this is time-consuming. I didn't have time to do homework! But I'm not complaining. I enjoy filming :) But I wanted to start filming a few weeks ago, but I couldn't find my camera. After I found it, I realized it was dead and couldn...
