INSPIRED: Nikkietutorials on youtube

Hello my Lovely followers,

If you like makeup tutorial and reviews on youtube, you are gonna like her.

Nikki is a makeup guru from the Netherlands. She is young, funny and very talented. I get inspired every time out check out her blog or videos. 

About Nikki:

My name is Nikkie, I’m a 17 year old girl from The Netherlands.
My life is all about doing the things I love, from Makeup Tutorials to The Vampire Diaries!

At the age of 14 I started making YouTube Makeup Tutorials.
This other weekend, I was sick and as I was resting in bed, I watched ‘The Hills’ on MTV.
I was amazed by their beautiful makeup, and when Lauren did her mascara I was convinced!, I had to know how she did her makeup.
As soon as the episode ended, I looked up YouTube and found out about a world I never knew of before.
I saw all these girls, doing their makeup like the girls from The Hills.

After 2/3 months of practising on my own, I started making my own YouTube How-to Makeup Tutorials!
A whole new world opened up for me, and started getting more, and more views as the months passed.

Right now I made quite a big name in YouTube land, And I have no intentions on stopping soon! ^^

Acting always has been a big part of my life too, I love acting!

Overall, I love my life, and enjoy it every single day.

My future dream is to become worlds’ best Makeup Artist, and actress! Nice combo, huh?! 
Hopefully you’ll join my journey and check this site out, whenever you have some free time!

GREETINGSSS, Nikkie X

FOTD: Curled My Hair With Socks

I know, some of you might read the title and think 'she is nutz'...but no, it is the easiest way to get long lasting big/bouncy waves in your hair without the heat damage. I leave the socks in for overnight and voila, the result is beautiful curls with tiny effort. All you need is some kind of curling foam (I use Full Thickening Mousse form Living Proof from Sephora) and some clean socks.

Here is a youtube tutorial how to do it:

FOTD: Bedhead Wave Artist

I went to Ulta yesterday to get the TIGI Bedhead Wave Artist deep waver, and I am liking it a lot :)

It is very easy to use, heats up within seconds and creates long lasting beachy/wavy hair.

Even tough I did my hair last night, the waves are still there in the morning.
I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who is looking for those effortless messy/beachy waves that last a long time. It would work for anyone with shoulder length hair or longer. You could also try with shorter hair, only the deep wave pattern probably won't show up so obviously.

 

Bedhead Deep Waver uses tourmaline ceramic technology to create deep sculpted waves that provide a unique, effortless wavy look.

Sorry for the bad picture quality, I took these photos with photobooth on my MAC at the office.

I am wearing:

Cardigan: F21

Gold Sequent Top: Charlotte Russe
