Sooooooo freaking long

Yes, yes... I know...
But it's not like I've been having any feedback here...
I keep my facebook pages active with makeup and nails. But my Youtube's channel has been a little put on the side. I have a few videos to edit, but I've been so damn lazy...
And recently I've re-discovered Xiaxue's blog, and I actually find her interesting and quite amuzing. I like how she's so frontal and honest about stuff. She's not even affraid that people will be mean to her. On that I got to admit I look up to her. And she's so cute!! (yes, I know she's done plastic surgery... I don't care. She's cute anyways. And if I had the money I would too...). She's somehow someone I wouldn't mind being lol. Seriously. I'd LOVE to have a life like hers... And to always have something to blog about (now that would be awesome to me)

So I've recently took the decision I should lose around 10kg... Yes it's quite a bit to lose just like that. I've found Blogilate's Youtube channel, and she's AMAZING! I got to say that I tried starting with her June calendar, but I almost DIED! I mean, I felt so weak and almost fainted at the third day...which was sad, and actually made me cry, because I realized how badly out of shape I am... My muscles can stand most of the pain the exercises give, but my lungs and heart somehow can't. It's obviously because I don't eat healthy, and yes... I should. Unfortunatly, healthy ain't always cheap (surprisingly, unhealthy is SO cheap it hurts...).
I'm trying to eat less carbs, and more proteine, more vegetables, a drink more water. I stopped drinking milk (I actually feel better without it... I should have stopped a long time ago). But I haven't yet composed myself from feeling sad about myself and get up and start the workout again. Cassie (blogilates) made a Beginner calendar for people like me. I already downloaded it, and I should just start it... But it seems I'm lazy enough to find a new excuse everyday to postpone the workout... Either "It's way too hot today" or "I just ate" or "I don't have time" or "it's too late"... Like, SERIOUSLY!!! I want to get thin and sexy and all...but apparently I don't want it enough? -_-
What do you guys (that workout, and had extra weight like me) did/do to keep yourselves motivated and to go against natural laziness??? What tactics (lol) did you use on yourself to not give excuses to yourself to not workout? What do you suggest? (and yes, getting up and move my fat ass is a start I know).

And right now it's like 2a.m. in here, it's 20ºC and even with a fan turned on I can't sleep coz it WAY too hot... geeez....

Oh!!! And tomorrow I'm going for my second session of my leg tattoo. I'm doing a bridal leg lace (or whatever it's called). It's SOOOOOO CUTE!!!
I'll post photos of it soon, and also the video of it being done. I think I'm kind of getting addicted to tatoos? I'm going for my third tatoo already, and I did my first in January... and believe me... it was the ongest 6h30 of my life of a tatoo (2 wings - one white other black. Yes, there's a meaning to it. But not going to explain now... maybe later.).

Also I've recently, and FINALLY found a hair stylist that agreed to dye my hair in a pastel color of my own choice. None here in my hometown accepted to do it, because I have long hair... Like... seriosuly???
And since she didn't have purple nor pink, I got violet (an in between both colors) on my old four colored hair. Yes, four colors... why? Because one year ago I dyied it myself in black, with a drugstore dye... worst thing EVER! Then later on December 2012 I managed to dye it in a cinnamon color to try to make it a whole color...not done well.... Then my hair stylist of that time bleached the ends of my hair (I think it's called the Callifornian Hair, or at least in here it's what t's called), and THEN I found my actual hairstylist that accepted the challenge of bleaching it all and turn it pink. Let me tell ya...it was HELL!!! That damned one year old black dye didn't want to leave!!!! I have all my hair (roots and where I first bleached and applied the cinnamon color) going from ash to platinnum blond (or white if you prefer), and the area where the black was still stuck on is of a light gold... The violet color looks like a mix of cotton candy pastel pink strands with some deep lavender on the roots and golden pink on where the black was. It actually looks nicer than what I thouht it would look like. But it'll look better next time! I'm going to order some Manic Panic dyes, and bleachers so I can keep my hair color and roots myself. Also I need to restock so good keratin products for my hair, good conditioners and shampoos...so yeah... ^^ It's going to be a little expensive, but totally worth it!
I feel like I came out of a fairy tale or something like that! I finally feel like I am ME with this look. It makes me youthful and cute, and with a brighter aura somehow. Which was what I as aiming for. And if you ask me, yes, Xiaxue was my main inspiration for this. Not the only inspiration, but probably the strongest. Thank you girl!

Aaaaaand I think I'll stop writting for this post...
In a few days I'll post more stuff and updates on my hair, tatoo, nails, makeup, and maybe, JUST MAYBE, an OOTD. ^^

xoxo!!!
See you next time!!!

It's been a month and a half since I last published (〃￣ω￣〃ゞ

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand I know I promised myself I would keep this blog updated more often, but I actually didn't...
I went on a two week vacation for the first time in 3 years of work, and went out of my country also for the first time. I went to visit my boyfriend at Switzerland.
It's BEAUTIFUL!!!

Everything there was so magical and beautiful... I was just astonished  (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o)))

And most recently I've been working with Hollywood Nails at a cosmetic exposition, the biggest in Portugal. I was AWESOME! I just loved it. I got to meet and work with great professionals, and I also met a lot of nice people there.

The Hollywood Nails team

And the nails I've done to the exposition. 

Everyone loved them and took pictures, it was so crazy!!!

Now I'm back home, and I'm resting a little, because tomorrow I'll hve to travel again, to take some courses on lashes extensions, and some other courses on nails, so I can start working at the Hollywood Nails academy as a Nail Instructor!!! I'm so excited!!! I've always wanted this!!!

I already took the nails off, because I completely ruined the nail art over the expo while working on other people's nail demos.

So here's my new set of nails now... I just LOVE them.

Well... That is all for now folks!
I won't be posting any ne tutorials for now, because I'm without a camera...so I can't record them...

But I'll try to not forget to keep this blog updated with nails and some makeup looks!!!

Don't forget to follow me on facebook!!!

New makeup tutorial!

New tutorial: Makeup for Glasses!!!

Been struggling that you use glasses and you want to wear some fun, quick and easy makeup even through you use glasses???
Here's one tutorial for you!!!

I may do some more later.
Hope you like it enough to subscribe and thumbs up this video.

Been on a somewhat procrastination mode...ヾ(´A｀)ノﾟ

yeah yeah... I know... we all have been there. The point where you know you have TONS of stuff to do (for me for example...preparing a course I will be giving soon, makeup and nails tutorials, getting some kind of temporary solution for my ferrets while I'm off to Switzerland until I can take them with me...I dunno...) and THEN Mr. Procrastination knoks up at you and you're out of strenghts, patience and will to do whatever you have and need to do.
So... I should be doing more nail tutorials, because I've actually been requested over Facebook, and I also should be blogging more (and with ACTUAL interesting content...), and also makeup tutorials (which I haven't done in AGES...).
AND today I actually filmed a new makeup tutorial!!! YAY for me!!!!! (ok I'll stop...)

I know I have a whole lot more to do... And specially because I'll be at least two weeks without being able to film anything while I'm at Switzerland, meaning, I'll have to film everything now, so I'll just edit and upload it later.

I already made a list of makeup and nail tutorials to film until the 2nd of March.
I'm trying to do a commitment with myself that I shall upload at least one tutorial per week. May it be makeup, DIY, or nail related. (let's hope I can keep this...)

Anyhow... Here's some photos of the makeup I just filmed, and yeah...those are two of my ferrets. LOVE them so much.

Enjoy!!!

（＾ω＾）Planning some new 3D Tutorials BUT!!!!!

So yeah, Valentine's Day is over, and now it'll be a full month until St. Patricks (and yes, I'll also be doing some nails tutorial for that day, even though Im not Irish.), but I also would want to know your requests.
What would you like to see more.
What colors?
What theme?
What kind of art?
What materials (sea shells, glittler, plain colors, acrylic paint, aquarelle...)?

Share your requests, and I shall do my best to please you all. (◡‿◡✿)

Thank you for visiting!
Until next time!!! (ﾉ´ヮ´)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
