Hey guys!
So you know I've been working hard on my blogs and I think they are fine for now. What do you think?
Anyways, the main reason I made this post was to tell you I'm going back to my youtube and blogging and such! starting my spring break (right now I will make more posts and videos. I thought I'd update you guys on this important change that will happen in my life. I know this is short, but I thought it was necessary. Thanks for sticking with me!

Lots of love,
~Riley<3

P.S. Happy St. Patricks Day!!

UPDATED Beauty Survey!

Hey guys! I'm still working on the blog very hard! The changes I've made so far look AMAZING, so I guarentee it'll look great! The thing is, I'm working on the 'About Me' page and wanted to link it back to my old survey. That was before I realized just how different it is from who I am now. So, I've decided to jut update it now! So without further ado...

SKINCARE

-How many times do you wash your face daily?
Once- at night. I don't really have to wash my face in the morning.
-What skin type do you have? (dry,oily,combo)
Sensitive Combo

-What is your current facial wash?


Clean and Clear foaming facial wash for sensitive skin
-Do you exfoliate?


No, my skin is too delicate and gets irritated easily. If I ever exfoliated, I'd be a flakey mess!
-What brand do you use?


Mostly Clean and Clear
-What moisturizer do you use?


Clean and Clear Oil-free dual action moisturizer

-Do you have freckles?


Sometimes in the summer I get a few.

-Do you use eye cream?


No

-Do you or did you have acne prone skin?


Yes

-Did you ever have to use Pro-activ?


No.


MAKE-UP

-What foundation do you use?


Bare Minerals Original Foundation In light.

-How about concealer?


Right now I love my NYC Coverstick in 783A Natural
-Do you know your undertone color?


No.

-What do you think of fake eyelashes?


I HATE wearing them, but I like the look they give to some people.
-Did you know that you are suppose to change your mascara every 3 months?


Yes... I don't though!
-What brand of mascara do you use?


A LOT of different brands! :P
-Sephora or MAC?


Sephora.

-Do you have a MAC Pro-card?


No.

-What makeup tools do you use in make up application?


Eyelash curler, some different brushes for my eyes and face, and my fingers. :)
-Do you use make-up base/primer for the eyes?


Yes
-For the face?


Nope!
-What is your favorite eyeshadow (color or shade)?

I like neutrals. I have this Palette from Wet N Wild called 'Walking on Eggshells'... It's Fabulous!

-Do you use pencil or liquid eyeliner?


Pencil! Liquid is hard for me to control and I don't like the wet eyeliner look. I prefer the hidden yet still there look when it comes to eyeliner. :)
-How often do you poke your eyes with an eyeliner pencil?


Rarely, but it has happened before!

-What do you think of pigment eyeshadows?


MESSY! and they last forever, so it can be a pretty good investment in some cases.
-Do you use mineral makeup?


Yes

-What is your favorite lipstick?


Not a huge Lipstick person...
-How about lipgloss?


Right now? The Revlon Colorburst line of lipglosses. AMAZING!
-What is your favorite blush to use?


I love my revlon cream blush in rosy glow, but I love any cream blush pretty much!
-Do you buy your makeup on ebay?


Nope.

-Do you like drugstore makeup?


Yup!

-Do you go to CCO's? (cosmetic company outlets)


Nope! The nearest one is more than an hour away! :P

-Did you ever consider taking make-up classes?


I wish!

-Are you clumsy in putting on makeup?


Sometimes!... ^_^

-Name a makeup crime that you hate?


Raccoon eyes.. -Shudder-

-Do you like colorful shades of makeup (lipstick,eyeshadow) or neutral ones?


Depends on the situation

-Which celebrity always has great make up?


Lauren Conrad! She's BEAUTIFUL! D: I'm jealous. Oh and Ashley Benson is like the master at rocking the smokey eye.

-If you could leave the house using just ONE make up item,what would you use?


Ooh this is hard! Either foundation or mascara probably.
-Could you ever leave the house without any makeup on?


Yupp, I've done it before!

-Do you think you look good even without any makeup on?


Ehh, depends on the day/week.

-In your opinion, what is the BEST makeup line?


Every Line has their Goods&Bads.

-What do you think of Makeup?



I believe that makeup is a fantastic way to express yourself and give a confidence boost on those junky days. I think sometimes people forget the purpose of makeup and use it as a way to change themselves or hide behind a 'mask' of makeup. Makeup is supposed to be fun and not to hide yourself! Remember, there's no such thing as too much beauty, but there is a such thing as too much makeup.




Feel free to do this survey too! I tag everyone! Give me a link so I can look and comment on your surveys!


Be awesome, Stay cool!

BIG shizz is happening ;)

Okay guys... Drum roll please...

SO I won't post again for a while until it's done. I thought I'd quickly update you on my whereabouts! I'll keep you posted on the deets.

Until Later!...

What's Been Up? +More!

Hey! Sorry for the lack of posts. I've been getting ready for school, and cherishing my last few days for as long as I can. I figured I might as well use this spare time to post something to tell you I'm still alive!

While on the topic of being busy, I haven't posted for a while for not only school, but for my birthday! I hit the big "one-three" on Thursday, and spent this whole week prepping for my party and family to come over. Overall, I'd say it was a success. (Psst! Be on the lookout for a Birthday haul on my Youtube channel!)

Also this week I start school, (Wednesday the 17th) which is a HUGE bummer!! I mean, I do love school and all, but this means hardly any time for online and more time dancing and doing homework. (Also on my channel will be a back to school series, which will premiere later today!)

I'm trying my best to find time were I feel motivated to post a decent post. I'm sorry this isn't very often, but trust me, I do think about it everyday! There really was no point to this post other than I wanted to blog. Sorry if this was really random... I guess it's just what came to me.

So tell me guys/gals, what did you do this weekend?? Leave a comment below!

Be on the lookout for some new things coming your way!
