Too Hot to Handle 🔥 [coord + make]

Hello Cuties

     It's unbearably hot outdoors.  And after fighting a headache and dizziness from heat exhaustion, I've decided to stay inside today.  I figured today is as good a time as any to write about my pamper date with Katie.

     I made sure to plan out an itinerary for the day, because Katie and I are both the "go with the flow" type . . . not typically the planners.  But I didn't want us to just spend hours going "what do you wanna do?  Idk, whatever you wanna do." ∘ ∘ ∘ ( °ヮ° ) ?  So first on the itinerary is get some grub!  My manager told me about a new mochi donut spot called Mochi Machi; and to my surprise, they also serve food!  So we decided to check it out.


     They had a photo-op wall (hehehe) you already know what that means~

* in Beyoncé's voice : wait . . . lemme fix my hair~ *
Do y'all see that movement?!!!🤭

top . . .
shorts . . . American Eagle
shoes . . . aliexpress
accessories . . . Playboy
bag (off to the side) . . . DKNY

     I planned out this outfit the night before.  And I just KNEW I had to wear my paisley d.i.a top!

     But back to the day of pampering~  I was too ravenous, so I didn't take pics of the food.  But we got chicken and fries.  I tried the garlic soy flavor, next time I'm trying the Korean corndogs!! (っ˘ڡ˘ς)  For mochi donuts, I tried banana crumble and chocolate sesame (both were great)! 


     Next on the itinerary, mani pedis!  Leading up to this day, I had seen some reels on instagram reviewing VelvetGlo.  They're not just a nail salon, but also one of those head-spas!  They also give complementary wine and drinks to all customers.  I just had to see the place for myself!

Ready to get treated like a princess!

     I was past due for a pedicure!  They have so many different options / services, but for my first visit I chose "pedi-in-the-box".  This service included a sea salt soak, sugar scrub, and a foot mask which was a nice upgrade from the pedicures I've had in the past.  They have one service I'm holding out until I have a good reason to spoil myself (lol).  It's the ultimate bougie treatment with rose petals, champagne soak and hot stones too!  Maybe as a bridal gift to myself?


     The sea salt soak had a nice smell~  Aloe and . . . something I forgot (lol).  We discovered Katie has hella ticklish feet.  (  ≧ᗜ≦)  I felt a little bad for laughing but she was shaking like a leaf!  


     Katie got gel polish and I stuck to regular polish.  Sorry no toe pics today folks (lmao)~  But here's the color I chose!


     What I was most excited about was the manicure!  I was adamant about trying the "cat eye" gel nails.  I got the lavender shade to match my toes~


     This time I was the one shaking (figuratively) but with excitement!  The VelvetGlo team work so quickly!  And not in a rushed way, I felt they took very good care of me.  They listened to my concerns and were patient with me.  I had such a pleasant experience!  You know they say time flies when you're having fun~  


     I didn't do any extension, just let her cut and shape my natural nails.  I think they came out really pretty!!  I couldn't stop looking at them sparkle and shift in the light~


     We did a google review and got 10% off which was pretty cool.  They're still fairly new to the area so I hope they continue to get lots of business!  We will definitely be returning!




     Lastly I planned for us to shop til we dropped.  The strip mall has an ulta so that was the first stop.  I needed a few things, but mostly impulse shopped (lol).


     Was in the market for a new toner and wanted to try this byoma one but CHILE I will be returning this because it ruined my face!  I broke out horribly all over my chin and under my nose.  The dry shampoo was a need, for the wigs.  Its a nice way to refresh them.  The lip liners were impulse buys for sure, but they're always out of stock so I had no choice (lmaooo)!  The eyeliners I decided to stock up on, but I got those in 5 Below.  That's where we started to lose our energy.  The heat zapped it out of us both.  We made it through that and to TJ Maxx where I was about to get some more skin care, but the checkout line was obnoxiously long.  So we left and called it a day.


     I realized it had been a while since I had set up my ring light and took proper photos.  So I dragged it out to play around with snow filters and take more selfies.



     I'm like 80% sure I'm wearing Loveil lenses in Silky Beige.  I rarely wear these, they're just not my favorite look (lol).  Can't remember what palette I used for my eyes.  But this was my second attempt with using the tinted sunscreen in place of foundation.  And this time it was successful!  I looked a little greasy by the time we left 5 Below, but after blotting and a touch up with pressed powder I was good as new. 

more selfies~

This filter made me look hawt lol

Until next post, keep it wild and sexy~
xoxo, Amiman ♥

    2. Fall time in places that have four seasons is super nice!!! I went to a pumpkin patch with my friends back in 2019 or so when I was in the US~ Getting apple cider and carving pumpkins is so fun!
