BEAUTY BAR: Pucker Up!

October 7th, 2016 at 2:00am

Hey beauties, I spy a groovy Fashionista! She rocked this endearing look around campus. You gotta be honest, we all long for those full Kylie Jenner lips that everyone is raving about….and this trend-sitter has fulfilled that desire. There’s something about bright lipstick that really pulls an outfit together. This simple button-down, shirt dress compliments this chic’s bold makeup look.

Facebook and Twitter are constantly propelling makeup tutorials in our face. But of course, how could you not give in? An hour later, we have already filled our online shopping cart with 10 different shades of Jeffree Star’s liquid lipstick. Unfortunately, we are college students on a tight budget and buying that ravishing lipstick color that we have been drooling over for days will leave your pockets feeling empty! Luckily for us, this Fashionista explains that she buys all of her lip colors from stores like Walgreens, Walmart, Target and CVS. This week’s diva is rocking the NYX Primrose shade in her outfit. NYX is a reasonably priced makeup brand that sells products including lipstick, highlight, foundation, mascara and eyeshadow. If you’re anything like me, cheap makeup makes me one happy lass!

What I love most about this outfit is that it could be worn to class as shown, or worn for a girls night out in the town. Yank the socks off, throw on a pair of strappy heels and you’re ready for a ladies night…or a date night! On top of that, how simple is it to throw on a loose-fitting dress that will make everyone’s head turn? If you’re interested in attaining this look, you can do so for under $30. Talk about a steal! Don’t worry Fashionistas/os, being beautiful doesn’t always need to break your budget.

To accomplish this makeup look, take a trip to your local drugstore and buy yourself the NYX SIMPLY PINK, Primrose Lip Cream. Next, this Fashionista used the Naked 2 Palette to enhance her eyes. “Men may come and go, but lipstick is forever!”  -Benefit Cosmetics
