Michelle Phan's Short Stories

Hello, my lovelies! If you're reading this it means I am at my sleepover with one of my closest friends, and I could not find time to blog this morning. But I couldn't possibly leave you hanging (I'm on a role with this blogging everyday thing), and so I decided to share with you one of my favorite short films.


Michelle Phan, beauty blogger extraordinaire, besides creating amazing tutorials on Youtube, also directs and stars in short films... Most often love stories. This one is called Underneath Your Love, and is an inspiring love story for all who see it. It's 22 minutes long, and it beats watching cartoons. 


This shall keep you plenty busy, but don't worry, I will be back soon! So pop some popcorn, get cozy, and play it on full screen. You'll love it, I promise!

I got an amazing beauty haul, so be sure to tune in all next week for tons of posts about everything I got! Tomorrow and Saturday I'll be having a sleepover with one of my best friends, so I might not get a chance to post, but I'll try to schedule some pictures or other blogs' news so you'll still have something to do. 


But back to the point! Today I was watching a tutorial from Vintage or Tacky, and Cora told her viewers about Beautylish.com, and I decided to check it out. In short, Beautylish is your go to place for all things related to the beauty community.

House Arrest: The Woes of a Teenage Girl

Last night I realized that for the past two weeks... No, over two weeks, I've been spending every day stuck in my house. Is that not so sad?


I feel as if I'm under house arrest! But I shall finally be rescued–tomorrow, my dad is taking me and my two younger sisters to the pool and the mall. Thank goodness!


My thirst for activity outside of this household shall be quenched, and I'll get some poolside fun and perhaps some new makeup out of the experience as well.


So because I had nothing to do today, I thought, Might as well give the readers something fun to do. So go ahead and watch everybody's favorite shopping anthem: Goin to the Mall by the School Gyrls. Haha, haven't seen them in a while, have we?

Raving About... Teen Choice Awards 2012

Teen Choice Awards 2012
Because my social life has been lacking, I was home alone on Sunday night eating ice cream and watching the Teen Choice Awards 2012. But, I suppose that grants me a beauty blogging opportunity. =)


So... On photocollage.net, I created a little collage of my favorite looks from the Teen Choice Awards. Though my absolute favorite was Lea Michele's silver Versace mini dress. How adorable! Also ranking in my favorites... Nina Dobrev's very angular, constructed dress... Ooh! And Ashley Rickard's yellow dress with black lace as well. Everyone seems to love Selena Gomez's little pink number, and Cymphonique looked pretty fantastic as always. :)


Here's my collage, and you can make your own on photocollage.net! If you send it in, I can post it on Aisles of Beauty! I seem to really love collages, whether they're online or on poster board (made any mood boards lately?).

Out of the Doldroms: Thanks Fashion Guru!

Aisles of Beauty was mentioned on ifashionguru.blogspot.com!
Hello, my lovelies! I'll be honest, it's been over two weeks since I've posted anything, and I was sure I couldn't continue. A combination of writer's block, a busy schedule, and the fact that it's pretty hard to wear makeup in the summer made writing for Aisles of Beauty rather difficult.


But today, I logged into Blogger and noticed a new source of traffic. ifashionguru.blogspot.com. This is a brand new blog, only a week old, and it is your go to source for a savior in any and all fashion emergencies. When I first clicked on, I was surprised how... similar our websites looked. We use the same format, but she has a different background. I looked around, and found a post from July 18 (my little sister's birthday, by the way... Happy Birthday Ava Angelettie! 10 years old! Wow!) titled More Beauty Blogs


On the top of the list of beauty blogs Fashion Guru wanted her readers to read was Aisles of Beauty, and I started tearing up. I knew I had a small audience of readers, but I never imagined something like this would happen at all. You can thank Fashion Guru of ifashionguru.blogspot.com for forcing me out of my doldrums, and back into beauty blogging. I left the Pocono Mountains a little while ago, and I am back in civilization, so lack of wifi is no excuse. 


Expect more posts from me, and be sure to read the Fashion Guru's blog as well!

NEW FEATURE: The Classroom

So hopefully, by now, you've learned the reason for my lack of posts. Well like I said, to make up for the disappearance of the new Toolbox Trilogy, I have created a NEW FEATURE on Aisles of Beauty. It's called The Classroom, and it's the place where beauty addicts like yourselves can go for the 411 on all things beauty.


I will be spending a lot of my time, along with blogging everyday for a month (the ultimate beauty challenge), writing articles for The Classroom. But it won't just be me helping you out. Now it's your time to connect with other beauty fanatics and enlighten them with YOUR knowledge. If you know a thing or two about makeup and beauty, and want to share it with the Aisles of Beauty International Community, fill out the form below or on the Classroom page. It's that simple!

Late Again, I Know.

"I'm Late!" -- The White Rabbit
I have received numerous emails questioning my lack of posts on Aisles of Beauty. So now that I finally have some time to sit down and blog, I'll tell you what happened.


The Toolbox Trilogy was supposed to teach the basics of makeup, so I was reluctant to post tutorials and reviews until the Toolbox Trilogy was up... But because of these restrictions, I got hit with severe writers block. What else could I blog about? Lacking inspiration, I started diligently editing the Toolbox Trilogy so I could finally post it, and resume blogging. 


Then the Toolbox Trilogy died. 


Technically I killed it, but ACCIDENTALLY! I was cleaning out unneeded files on my laptop because I was practically out of space, and some how it just magically appeared in my trash can and I cleared it! So really, it's not my fault, the file put itself there.


Devastated, I spent two days brainstorming a solution. And there came The Classroom. Everything about the classroom is on its page, located on the pink bar above this post. So I don't find the need to explain. 


But starting July 10, I shall make up for my lack of posts by following through with my summer resolution. There will be a post every single day from July 10 to August 10, but I'll most likely have to end there because then it'll be back to school season, and I'll be quite busy. Until then, ciao!
