Cool Tips and Tricks
To get a PERFECT wing on your eye makeup, use scotch tape to define a line, and when you're done, peel it off!
To get a PERFECT half-moon manicure, use those little circle stickers used for notepaper holes that rip. Well, here's a link for a better how-to.
To make PERFECT circles for nail art, use the end of a sewing pin, a match, or maybe even a dull pencil. Sewing pins are my fave, and I like to stick them on the end of a pencil (the eraser part) so I have better hold!
Wanna get bright colored streaks in your hair? Or maybe you've been wanting to try a cool-looking ombre effect? You can experiment with no risk if you use SOFT PASTELS (not oil pastels)! You can buy any color you want at any art store, or you can buy a set with a whole bunch of colors. They usually are pretty cheap, so go ahead and pick whatever colors you want! Then, get your hair wet (not soaking wet) and rub the color on your hair. The next time you wash your hair, the color will come right out! This is a fun way to try out crazy new colors if you aren't willing to deal with a real dye job.
Is all your makeup cluttering up your space? Try using a BENTO BOX or two with multiple compartments to store and organize your makeup. Or, if you are in a hurry in the mornings, just throw it all into a bowl. Out of sight, out of mind.
Do you still have a pair of those 3d glasses from the movies? Pop out the lenses and PAINT THEM! It's a lot more interesting than leaving them black, and they're really cool nerdy glasses!
Is your nail polish getting SUPER THICK? Put a few drops of polish remover in the polish bottle to thin it out. This is good if you don't have any polish thinner around.
You know those toilet seat covers in public restrooms? They are made out of almost the same material as those special BLOTTING PAPERS to make your skin less shiny by absorbing the oils on your face. Grab one and tear it into smaller squares to use as your own blotting papers. I know it may not be very glamorous, but it works great if you are on the go.
I hope these tips helped you!

Feathers and Braids. Feather accents (hair feathers, on necklaces, etc) really add to the whole boho thing. Plus, a lot people are experimenting with fun new braids and twists. Wrap a braid around your head as a headband! Try the fishtail braid! Or the waterfall braid! There's always something new out there for you to try!
Florals. Florals are a classic. You should always have a floral skirt in your collection. I am dead serious right now.
