April 2015 Favorites

Hey guys!!!

I didn't do a favorites post last month and I almost didn't do one this month because I have been testing out lots of makeup. There are some products that I have been consistently using throughout the last two months which is why I decided to go ahead and do this post.



  • Batiste Dry Shampoo- My holy grail dry shampoo is the tinted dry shampoo in medium & brunette, but I decided I wanted to try a different one. I have heard a lot of people talk about the Sassy & daring wild kind of the batiste dry shampoos and I love it. I was going to do a review on it, but I decided not to its practically the same thing as the tinted one. Only thing you have to brush it out after letting it sit for a few minutes on your scalp to let it soak up your oils because if not you will get a white cast.
  • Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara- When I first tried out this mascara I loved and hated it. This is a great mascara, BUT because it isn't waterproof my lashes fell down immediately after application. I have been using it up by applying it right after applying a waterproof mascara. It gives my lashes a little more length and volume. I have been loving it.
  • Laura Mercier Invisible Loose Setting Powder- I got this during the Sephora VIB Sale and I am so happy to have this back in my life. It sets my makeup beautifully and it helps with the creasing under my eyes. It makes your skin feel silky smooth. One day I will try out the Secret Brightening Powder, but for now I am enjoying this one.
  • Milani Rose Powder Blush- I have been reaching for blush a lot and I am scared that the cute pattern on it will rub off soon haha. I love this blush so much because this is my first coral blush and I love the formula. It is very pigmented and very blendable. If you guys haven't tried these blushes you must try it out!
  • Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer- My holy grail bronzer and because it is an expensive bronzer I hadn't been using lately, but I realized I have had it for a while I might as well use it up and repurchase. I have already hit pan on this product. One tip this is really pigmented and if you are not careful you will look muddy. I always get a little bit at a time until I am satisfied with it. 
  • ELF Baked Highlighter- All I could say about this product is BEAUTIFUL GLOW! If you love a good highlight this is a good one to try. I have been using it nonstop recently and I am loving it. I have been using the Real Techniques Setting Brush to apply it and it is the best brush to use with this product. 
Those are my April Favorites. I am still testing out products so there will be more posts coming your way. 

What were some of your favorites this 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 ...

Battle of the Eye Primers

Hey guys!! I have oily eyelids and I struggled when I was younger with my eyeshadows and eyeliner creasing. At the time I never understood why. I went into sephora a couple years ago with my best friend and asked "how can I stop that from happening?" That's when I was introduced to eye primers. My first ever eye primer was the Too Faced Shadow Insurance. I have been testing out 6 different eyelid primers and out of the six only two did not work for me. I decided to do this blog for the people that have that same issue as me and to show you guys what options there are out there in the make up world from drugstore to high end.   I tried the ELF Eyelid Primer, Rimmel Exaggerate Undercover Shadow Primer, Mary Kay eye primer, Urban Decay Primer Potion, Too Faced Shadow Isurance, and BareMinerals Prime Time Primer. I'm going to start off with the one that was the worst one out of all of these. It was the Rimmel Exaggerate Undercover Shadow Primer. $4.99 ...

Aveeno ultra calming makeup removing wipes

Hey guys!!! I received the Aveeno makeup remover wipes as a gift! Finally I was able to stop using the horrible wipes that I was using before!! These wipes are amazing! They smell so good and everytime I take one out I have to smell it before I use it on my face. They are very moist and they remove most of my face and eye makeup. I always go with a cotton round with another makeup remover no matter which wipes I use just to make sure everything is off. I don't know if they remove waterproof mascara since I am not using one at the moment. Most IMPORTANTLY it did NOT break me out!  I looked online on walmart to see how much it was and it is around $7. I probably will purchase this myself later on down the line.
