Upcoming Videos & I Need Puppy Suggestions!

Look out for this:

Homecoming Dance Makeup

My version of what I would wear if I went to my High School Dances.

Be surprised! I used mostly Drugstore and Elf Cosmetics

I totally understand that most high school teens don't have all the money to buy high end makeup for their school dances. I sure didn't back in high school, even when i had a job. I wanted to make it easier to pull off an "expensive look" without brand name makeup. Plus...worry more about how pretty your dress will be, not your makeup, it will sweat off anyway!

Dance. Be Safe. Have Fun.

Also look out for this:

I wanted a new hairstyle for Fall:)

I will be using My Hot Rollers to curl my hair as part of my Homecoming Dance Look

Dear Journal,

I have neglected you, don't forgive me, I will make it up to you. lol

This week is going by so fast! Maybe because I have been so busy. I am trying to accomplish so many videos this month and I have been thinking about easy tutorials for Halloween. I'm thinkin Barbie Girl, Sexy Goth Girl, and Arabian Princess. Sound cute? 

School: I am transferring school next semester, but I might change my major. I really need more motivation to apply at FIDM (Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising) in Los Angeles. I am interested in Brand Marketing. Hmm..

Life: Sean and I are saving up to get our own place that will be close to my school. Summer may be far away, but I can't wait! I'm also thinking of getting my own puppy so me and Sean's puppy will have a friend in our future place. Plus I need puppy friends to keep me occupied. lol. I am aiming for a Teacup poodle or pomeranian? What are some nice friendly, little companions? Not too furry and rowdy?

Let's Review Things Together!

Hi Friends!

So I discovered this blogging website called BLIPPY.

Can I just say 3 Things?

Omg!

I can really talk about products that do or don't suck?!

Subbie Networking is so much fun!

Basically what BLIPPY is, it's a website where you can interact with people and talk about products that you buy. You can discuss and review products by interacting with online socials! It's FUN and SIMPLE! I figured since I buy so many beauty products so often, why not tell my Followers what I think of the things I buy and review them on BLIPPY instead of making a million Youtube Reviews? 

DO ME A BIG FAVOR...

Register for free. And we can review things together!

Thank you:)

An Unproductive Day?

Today was definitely one of those days that you got completely nothing done! I went to class early morning, and went over to Sean's house for a few hours and went out to lunch and the movies. I totally thought I was going to devote my day writing 3 Philosophy papers and study for my Astronomy test. lol. Talk about my "Procrastination" video. haha.

Sean and I watched "Prince of Persia", I LOVE DISNEY MOVIES! We also went out for sushi and I was complimented on the vest that I wore.

Vest and Hat from www.pinkice.com/

My Outfit today was very casual and comfortable.

Find your cute vests HERE

Find your pair of flats HERE

I have worked with Pink Ice before, their products are amazing and as much as I would love to do a fall fashion video, I don't own enough clothes from them to do a fashion show:-/

But you will see my favorite products from them on here!

My (Our) Future Plans....

I have promised myself that by next summer, I will be moving out of my parents house and get my (our) own place. Of course that involves saving up a lot of money, which I think I will be okay... Like I've said before, Youtube is my full time gig so I need to lay off on buying makeup! On the other hand, school is not really fulfilling what my happy interests are, such as doing major advertising and hopefully working with a company that will allow me to further my goals on Youtube and a career. 

Although Sean and I have plans on our own, no one says we have to hurry! For now plans can only take us so far. But for now, I need to focus on what I really want to do in terms of a career. Any suggestions? Oh I won't want to be a comedian or an actress. lol

GOT MAIL?

Hi Friends:)


So I get hundreds of messages each day on my channel that it's becoming impossible to see them all. Many subbies ask for my address and of course, I refuse to give it, so I have a PO BOX now if ever you feel like writing a request, or just random letters or packages. I would  love to display what I receive in an album and feature your packages on my blog:)

Jarmaine Santiago

PO Box 440

Simi Valley Ca, 93062

Please know that I don't ever ask for anything, but my subbies are important to me and it's better for me to receive mail and have it in my presence, rather than an over-flooded inbox that is rarely seen. If you have random things to tell me, I'de love to hear you rant. lol

Want to get rid of unwanted hair?

I apologize for lacking on my blogposts, I have been trying out several products the past week just to see which ones tickle my fancy. The winner for this week is my personal waxer from

 Flatironexperts.com

I LOVE IT!

Now I don't have to go to waxing salons just to get my stubborn facial and leg hairs out! I personally dislike going to salons and get waxed by random beauticians and risk having "waxing gone wrong" moments. lol. Let's not share my stories. But face it...

Nobody wants a mustache!

I rarely wax my legs because I am content in shaving them, although I have never personally waxed my own legs. But I will definitely try it now, and hopefully get use it. In the video I filmed, I only showed waxing Sean's arms and my lip hairs because I wanted to exploit the general idea on Waxing. 

I mean it's sort of common sense. lol. Just heat the wax (not too hot) and wax with the waxing cloth and pull, scream and soothe the burn. My favorite wax I got out of my kit is the Tea Tree Wax

(For sensitive akin)

So for all you hairy gals, get your very own waxing kit at Flatironexperts.com! 

Just try it, I promise it only hurts the first time, but you will have beautifully smooth skin in just a few seconds. Beats razor bumps and shaving mishaps.

Get the Look!

Oily/Shiny Face Problem?

Skindinavia was so kind to send me a solution to my biggest problem ever! It's not a joke, and I rarely review sponsor products on my site unless I think it's worth sharing. I have a super oily and shiny complexion and it's very hard to ignore during the summer!  This is nothing like any makeup finishers I have tried. M.A.C's Fix Plus is a product everybody raves about, but to me it doesn't set my makeup that well. I have tried good primers and makeup setting powders, all have worked to an extent, but a liquid substance? It's rare in my dictionary!

http://www.skindinavia.com/

So basically you can choose any of the four depending on your makeup problem.

-No More Shine-

Matte hold on oily skin (My favorite)

-10 Years Younger-

Resists drying and creasing.

-Cool Flash-

Heat resistant makeup hold. 

-DANCE!-

Active use makeup hold. (I use this when I go for a run)

Safe Ingredients!

Oil Free/Paraban Free.

Formulated for sensitive skin.

Inexpensive too!

$12.50 a bottle
