Back At It...

Life sometimes gets in the way of the things we enjoy most. The past several months have brought some unimaginable ups and downs. It wasn't until a few weeks ago I got back into filming YouTube videos, and I think I am ready to jump back into blogging again. With that said, I want to share my most recent video with you!

In February I decided to ditch my dark locks for my usual blonde. I loved having dark hair but I'm so used to being blonde that I actually missed it. Now I feel like me again. In the video I explain exactly what I did, how I did it, and what products I used. Going from such a dark color to a much, much lighter color is no joke. If you're about to make the move, do your research! If you're a first time hair dye-er I'd recommend just heading to a professional. It took me hours of research, several trips to Sally's, and a TON of patience to get back to my usual blonde -- but is absolutely do-able. If you have any questions please feel free to leave them below or holla at me on twitter @glamcandyxo 

Hope you enjoy the video :)

PS -- It feels great to be back!

It's Judy Time Palette Look | Update

Hello lovelies! It has been a hot minute since I blogged or filmed a video -- I started a new job, which I love, but it's consumed most of my life as of late. I also was unfortunately in a really bad car accident a little over a week ago and was injured so I've been laying super low trying to recover. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! I'm anxious to get back into the swing of blogging and filming makeup tutorials so stay on the look out for all that!

For Christmas one of my favorite gifts was my It's Judy Time eyeshadow palette. If you don't know who Judy is, you MUST check out her YouTube channels -- she is amazing! She has a vlog channel with her husband Benji and sweet little cutie bear daughter Julianna. She uploads daily vlogs and I have to say I'm completely addicted. She also has a mommy channel and a beauty channel. Recently she worked with BH cosmetics to create her own eyeshadow palette and it is BEAUTIFUL! Watch the video below or read on to see the look I created using her palette.

Update & Wavy Hair Tutorial

First, let me address the elephant in the...blog? I decided to change the name and design of my blog. I simply liked the sound of Glam Candy much better than The Queen Life and I found this amazing design at Mlekoshi Playground. I love it! I switched my Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube accounts over to Glam Candy as well, and links for those are in the side bar in case you were wondering! :)

Now for the hair tutorial:

Don't worry -- I haven't dropped off the face of the Earth. Since my last post I have been fighting a nasty cold and finally just starting to feel better. I will be filming a few beauty videos today and updating my blog tonight/early tomorrow.

Thank you to those who have nominated me for awards the past couple of days! I feel so honored you thought of me :)

While I get ready to film and update, here are two articles I stumbled upon that I will be featuring in an upcoming video. I'm so excited for you to see it! Take a look at them if you get a chance...they are super interesting!
