Face of the Day!

Hey guys!!

When I saw JamiePaigeBeauty and MrsLolalynn collab using Makeup Geek eyeshadows reminded me to use mine. I am glad I did because I love what I came up with and I loved it so much that I didn't want to take it off haha.


I started off with applying my eye primer and face primer. Face primer I am using the Laura Mercier Hydrating Foundation Primer and for eyes I used the Urban Decay Primer Potion. I forgot to add it in the picture, but I used my ELF Studio Eyebrow Kit to fill in my brows and set them with the ELF Brow Gel


I use the Makeup Geek eyeshadow in Creme Brulee in my crease as my transition shade and I blended it out till it looked seamless. I always love using a base all over my lid so I used Maybelline Color Tattoo in Inked in Pink. 


Then I took the Makeup Geek eyeshadow in Cocoa Bear in the crease as well, but I made that the shade Creme Brulee was still showing at the top of my crease(I hope that made sense) I used the shade Mango Tango all over my lid.


I took the Makeup Geek eyeshadow in Corrupt and applied it to my outer-v and a little into the crease. Since it is a black I made sure to apply a little bit then blend it out and repeated that process till it was the intensity I wanted. I applied my winged eyeliner with the Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in Trooper. I lined my waterlines with the NARS Larger Than Life Long-Wear Eyeliner in Via Veneto.

Now on to the face before I finish my eyes. I used my Sephora Collection 10 HR Wear Perfection Foundation in 33 Medium. I used the NYX Hi Definition Photogenic Concealer in Medium under my eyes, chin, above my lip, nose, and in between my brows to highlight my face and conceal my dark circles. I set my whole face with Mary Kay Transluscent Powder.


Back to the eyes. I used Cocoa Bear on my lower lash line and I blended it out. I decided to add Mango Tango on my lower lash line as well and I blended it with Cocoa Bear. I then decided a little bit of Corrupt and blended it all out. I really liked how warm my eyes look was. I take Makeup Geek eyeshadow in Shimma Shimma and highlighted my inner corner and my browbone. I curled my eyelashes and I used my L'OREAL Voluminous Miss Manga Mascara on my top and lower lashes.


Back to the face. I used the NYC Bronzer in Sunny to bronze up my whole face and the blush I used is the Makeup Geek blush in Summer Fling. The highlighter I used is from the That's Heart Eyeshadow and Blush Palette. I used it on top of my cheekbones, nose, chin, top of my lip, and middle of forehead.

Lastly the lips. I lined my lips with No Cosmetics No Bleeding Lips Secret Lip Liner and then I applied the Maybelline Matte Lipstick in Touch of Spice. 


This is the final look. Sorry I didn't get more close ups of my eyes I am not good at taking close up pics. What are some of you guys favorite Makeup Geek products?? FYI make sure you check out the two ladies I mention if you love reviews and tutorials. I always enjoy their videos.

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. It helps to enhance skin's firmness and resilience while softening signs of sun damage.  The size of this acid allows it to penetrate the uppermost layers of the skin to reveal better looking skin. 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
