Small Business Saturday and Makeup Look From Last Night

Last night was "Puttin' on the Glitz" it is an event that goes on in my hometown every year. The stores stay open late and there are horse carriage rides for the kids and the whole street is decked out in Christmas decor. It is a great way to kick off the holiday season. It was also small business saturday yesterday so I was working with my mom in her boutique supporting her last night!

We are happy to be home from Kauai and even happier to be getting ready to celebrate Christmas!

So for this look here is what I used:

Revlon Colorstay Foundation in Sand Beige and Golden Beige (I have to check on the color of the second one I used, not 100% sure its Golden Beige)

Mac Pro Longwear Concealer in NC20

Nars Powder in Beach to set foundation

Rimmel Stay Matte in 03 and 01 for oily areas

Mac Blush in Melba

Nars Bronzer in Laguna

Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette for eyes

Maybelline Colossal Mascara on upper lashes

Maybelline Mega Plush Mascara Waterproof on bottom lashes 

Stila Waterproof Black Eyeliner Pen on upper lash line

Nars Highlighter in Albatross 

Bare Minerals Well Rested Powder lightly dusted under eyes and around mouth

Chanel Lipstick in Tobago Aqualumiere 

In the first picture you can see I just styled my hair in loose waves I made with my flat-iron and it gave me my relaxed, casual, loose curls. 

I wore a black tank top, a hooded flannel underneath my black military-styled jacket, a pair of tight skinny blue jeans, knee high socks and a pair of black knee high boots from Steve Madden that I have had for years that I absolutely love .

My nails are painted a light periwinkle/baby blue color, in Essie Bikini so Teeny. 

I hope you all had an amazing Saturday night and if you are a small business owner I hope you had lots of love from your local customers coming out to support you!

Happy first day of December!

Quick & Easy Gluten Free Enchiladas, Lazy Friday Night!

QUICK GLUTEN FREE ENCHILADAS

Tonight we made enchiladas for dinner. Not our typical enchiladas, we normally like to make our own tomato sauce with jalapeno and habenero chiles, blend it in the vitamix add some rice flour, chicken stock etc., but I will save that recipe for another time! For now, it's just the quick and easy way because we had a long day at school and wanted to relax.

Ingredients:

McCormick Enchilada Sauce Seasoning Mix

8 oz. can tomato sauce

corn tortillas

shredded cheese

salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, etc.

chicken breasts 

So, the McCormick seasoning package suggests you use beef, but we had chicken and so I just boiled and shredded the chicken. I followed the instructions on the seasoning pack...threw the chicken in with the sauce, added some cheese into the tortilla, poured the rest of the sauce on top with cheese, plopped it in the oven and there ya go...

The enchiladas are by no means pretty to look at, but it was a lazy night for us and we wanted to take a break from cooking something that would take longer

Not what our enchiladas typically look like before heading into the oven, but the quick way will have to do for tonight!

Add some avocado, green onions, and cilantro to make guacamole....

Smash it all up! :)

There you have it! Our fast dinner for tonight before we relax and watch a movie...

What is everyone else up to on their Friday night?

Let me know what you guys want to see next, I have gotten emails for recipes, outfits, and everyday life and more so be sure to let me know:)
