DIY: celeb/muse hangers
here at DTY we love DIY projects! I was on twitter today (you can follow me here) and my friend and the owner of the other site I write for, FFB, Miss Teena Leone had posted a DIY link for these extra cool hangers. I haven't made any yet, but they are so cute, and they seem pretty easy to make. I knew you guys would love them so I had to share with you guys! If any of you guys try these out email me some pictures at ditibhasin@gmail.com :) Happy crafting!

DIY: Body scrub
I am back on my youtube grind! LOL as you know I love watching youtube beauty videos and I stumbled on DulceCandy87's channel! She shows us how to make your own body scrub. It is so simple and if you are on a budget like I am you will def appreciate this.
(fast fwd to 4:40 sec to see her do the scrub)
Body scrubs usually take off all the dead skin off, especially in winter months when you get all "ashy" haha. Plus leaves your skin silky smooth. Everyone should try this :)

SPRING LIST: MADE UP WITH MAKE UP
Buying make-up can be almost like a car payment. I mean 70$ for eyeshadow that's madd!! You can buy almost the same products if your really looking. This is just a short guide of what works for me. The best make-up store for me is definitely Sephora. They have a wide range of products that you can sample and try on & load you with extra's to take home. Although, if the price is to high try to stop by Target or a drugstore & find whats closest to your WANTED look. Also keep in mind instead of getting your nails did for $10.00 you can buy a Ms. Manicure kit and OPI for around $9 and save money in the long run.
BRIGHT EYES

Urban Decay has almost every color of the rainbow in their collection. Perfect for blending for spring days vs. nights.
$16.00 each: Mix & match
or
NOT A PRO
If your not into makeup that much & not into all the colors, you can't go wrong with gold shimmer for the upper eye lid into the crest and under. It's for all over and always looks good during the day and at night.
for less intensity use brown eye liner instead of black it looks more natural and can also be used to fill in your eye brows for a quick fix. (make sure to blend into skin)
GET NAILED!

It's a Sephora x OPI collabo. It'a mazing for spring a black tight dress always looks good with a hot pink polish and will definitly add some detail to a solid outfit.
$9.00 each and Only at a Sephora near you!

Ms. Manicure has great tools to use for manicure's and pedicure's. Plus it's cheap you can buy it at Shaw's or Walmart for about $4.00 for a year round up keep.
HEAVY GLOSSED

Sheer tone lipgloss with shimmer is perfect for reflections from the sun. I find it that clear is too much shine and makes it look like you had too much greasy KFC. So to tone down the gloss get a gloss with color that's close to your skin tone and that has shimmer in it so even when your not in the sun rays your still shinning!
Smashbox $21.00 at Sephora and other fine retailers
CHEEKS
For foundation it's almost a NO brainer. The best is to buy a bronzer and brush softly over your skin. If you need to cover up hit up CVS or a Drug store to match your best tone and if you can't find your exact color buy the closest but darkest to your tone. If you buy lighter it will show more and you'll look paler than you are. I recommend Liquid because it covers better and if your going to be adding bronzer it absorbs the powder so you don't look like a cupcake!

Urban Decay also has whole collection for around $100.00 that you can mix and match to your needs. It's great quality and has everything you need for your empty make-up bags.
Check out their site for how-to's! For great Extreme looks to tweak.

Paper Bag Curls Tutorial : No Heat
Michelle Phan always has great youtube videos and recently she just posted this one on how to curl your hair without using heat. Well theres a down side for me because I don't think It will work for African Americans just because of the hair type that we have. But to all the other hair types I think this will be a pretty cool DIY(Do It Yourself) So if some of you DTY readers out there want to try this and actually suceed send us your video of you doing it or a picture of your process/final results to donttripyet@gmail.com
Check out some more of her videos here

SEWING MACHINE x MAKING HAIR BOW
So a couple of days ago my BF brought home a sewing machine and I'm super duper excited because I loveee sewing. So that day we wnt to Jo-ann fabrics and I found millions of threads, ribbons, lace, buttons, and lot's more. I couldn't even choose what I wanted I just want everything. I decided to start small and brought ribbon and some buttons and now all I want to d is make a bow for my hair. It sounds simple but i couldn't figure it out by myself so I looked up some tutorials on YouTube cause everything is on youtube, when I don't feel like reading i go look there.
