Mini New York Haul!

Hey guys!!!

As usual whenever I go to New York I always go into Sephora and splurge. This time I didn't splurge as much just because I was going to New York Comic Con and I needed to save my money for that event. I also got one thing from ELF thanks to my friend Addy and I am excited to try it out.


  • SEPHORA COLLECTION Luster Matte Long-Wear Lip Color- I saw Judy from itsjudytime do a review on this product and ever since I been wanting to try one out. I decided to get out of my comfort zone and get a dark color. I got it in the color Deep Plum.
  • Bite Beauty Best Bite Remix- I already am in love with my Bite Beauty High Pigment Pencil in Pomegranate and when I saw this set I HAD to get it!! This limited edition set has the shades Sable, Rhubard, Pomegranate, and Winterberry. I was also excited to see that I got a back up of my favorite shade!!  
  • Korres Wild Rose + Vitamin C Advanced Brightening Sleeping Facial- I have been splurging a lot on my skin scare since my skin started acting up. I had gotten a sample of this and fell in love. I will have a full skin care routine once I have it all figured out. I am almost there.
  • Kat Von D Tattoo Liner- I have been on the search for a good waterproof liner and thanks to again my friend Krystelle she recommended this liner. I have used it a couple of times already and so far so good!
  • ELF Small Tapered Brush- I always wanted a brush to apply my highlight on my cheekbones and there is a Sigma brush I been wanting, but I can't get myself to buy it. I got on the ELF website and I saw this so I HAD to have it since it looks just like the Sigma one. I haven't used it yet so I will update you later.
Now that is what I got. What have you guys gotten at Sephora and ELF recently??

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
