Smooth as an Irish Ale || St. Patrick’s Eye Makeup Look

I have to admit, I simple adore how this eye look came out! I need to wear greens more often because they just make my brown eyes look so clear!! Yes, I think I do think highly of myself, why do you ask? Heh…

As per usual, this is an arthritis-friendly look. Keep in mind we are using bright, vibrant colors so we will have to spend a bit more time fussing. However, it’s simple and easy to achieve without too much effort!

I hope you enjoy the video!

I OVERSLEPT! 5 Minute Easy, Healthy Face Makeup || Video

5 minute face, beauty, rheumatoid arthritis, Video

…In probably less than five minutes. I haven’t felt well this month/IV med cycle. “Not well” as in I can easily sleep 11+ hours every day. I picked up a bug at school and I just feel knackered. When your immune system is suppressed even the sniffles takes a toll.

Before RA, I could hit the road without even running a comb through my hair. Now, I look just as ill as I feel (thanks autoimmune condition!) but when I sleep through my usual morning routine I have a safety look that only takes a few minutes!

I hope you enjoy the video!

May contain some affliate links.

I occasionally lose interest when people just chat about their favorite products so I tried a double-time get ready with me video! I don’t generally single out products and consider them my most loved items but I will use the same makeup over and over again. Those count as favorites, right??

I hope you enjoy the video linked below. I’ve also linked all the products I mentioned as well. Apologies on the blurriness. I didn’t sit close enough to the camera and the focus was finicky!

 

Video here: https://youtu.be/VZFRjZVPO6Y
