July 2014 Favorites

Hey guys!!!

It's that time again! I can't believe July is over time flew by so fast! I will be going back to work soon. Now on to the favorites.


  • NuMe MegaStar Flat Iron- This is my new holy grail flat iron. It makes my hair feel soft, shiny, and it cuts my time in half. If you are interested in this iron just use the code "MEGASUMMER" so you can get it for $89. My full review on it is here.
  • Makeup Geek Eyeshadows and Blush- I have been reaching for these eyeshadows and blush this whole month. I love the quality and the pigmentation of these shadows. I honestly want to get her whole collection haha.
  • Clinique Makeup Brush Cleanser- I really love this product cause it gets all the foundation off of my foundation brush so I don't have to wash that brush every time I use it. It leaves your brushes feeling soft and smelling good.
  • Milani Eyeshadow Primer- This is an amazing eye primer from the drugstore. It was my first Milani product I ever tried and I love it. It helps your eyeshadows last all day and helps make your eyeshadows look more pigmented.
  • NYX Hi Definition Photogenic Concealer- I have the Green concealer and I love it. It helps to cover up any red spots I have on my face. I apply it before I put on my foundation. My new holy grail product.
  • OFRA Eyebrow Pencil- I didn't realize I had put this in my last month's favorites, but oh well it still is a favorite. I am working on my eyebrows and this is an awesome product to start with. 
  • Sephora Collection Cream Lip Stain- My new favorite lip product. It lasts for hours on your lips and it is the perfect matte red.

What were some of your favorites of the month??

Rose and Ben Beauty Brushes

 Hey guys!! I haven't done a beauty post in a while and I was in the mood to do one because I am very excited to talk about these! I started follow Rose on IG roseandben  thanks to my friend and I have been loving her content. You can see the passion she has for makeup. I love that she posts on IG stories almost everyday doing a tutorial or talking about her fav products.  I have actually purchased and few of her recommendations and 99% of the products I have bought have become staples in my collection.  When she announced she was coming out with a brand  Rose and Ben Beauty  I just knew it would be brushes because she would always be using prototypes in her tutorials. I trusted her judgment in products soooo I bought most of the collection.  Aren't these brushes beautiful?? When I first got the brushes I felt the bristles and they were so soft. The quality of the bristles and even the handles feels so luxurious. I love the color of the handles too. I only started following her

What Are AHA's??

 Hey guys!!! AHA's(Alpha Hydroxy Acids) is water-soluble, exfoliates dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, reveals healthy looking skin, and it is suitable for all skin types. It helps stimulate collagen, hydrates the skin, brightens the skin, helps lessen skin texture, helps with acne scars, signs of sun damage, and dark spots. There are different types of AHA's out there.  Glycolic Acid Glycolic acid is the most well known and is used in skin care and is also used by a professional in a chemical peel.  It is either used alone in a skincare product or combined with another AHA ingredients at concentrations of 5% and up.

Also it hydrates the skin, and basically helps the skin retain the natural moisture. Glycolic acid can be derived from sugar cane, but they only use the

What are BHA's??

 Hey guys!!! The other day I spoke about AHA's and the different types of AHA's and now it is BHA's.  BHA's(Beta Hydroxy Acids) can get deeper into the pores to remove dead skin cells and excess sebum. It is oil-soluble so it allows it to penetrate deep into the pores and gently breaks up blockages that clogs your pores. That will help with lessening your acne and less visible pores. If you have blackheads, on your nose especially, it can help getting rid of them without damaging your skin like the Biore pore strips do. Also prevents new ones from forming. It could also help with Keratosis Pilaris(KP) in body washes or even body lotions/butters. BHA's are good for all skin types, but especially oily, acne prone skin. Salicylic Acid Salicylic Acid is the most well known out of all of them. It helps reduce acne by exfoliating the skin and keeping the pores clear. It helps with mild acne, blackheads and whiteheads, can help prevent future breakouts.  Tropic Acid, Tret
