Valentine's Day Eye and Lip Tutorial

Hello everyone! 
 
Where do I begin? Well, I always wanted to start a beauty and fashion blog with some of my friends. I thought about it for a while before deciding not to do it due to time and the work needed for it. 
When Bridget said we should start a fashion and beauty blog together, I decided to give it a go. I invited my friends Hannah and Brooke to join us. (They will be posting next week.) So here we are! I'm hoping this blog will grow and become very popular! 
Alright, down to the trend. This weeks trend was red and pink for Valentine's Day. Due to me not having much pink and red clothing, I decided to do a Valentine's Day eye and lip tutorial.
