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 ...

Nails of the Week!!

Hey guys!!! I had trouble deciding on what to put on my nails this week, but after 5 minutes I finally went with... Julep in the color Farrah and.... Revlon in the color 761 Scandalous. The Julep polish is a pretty purple grayish color. It was two coats opacity and usually the polish last me about 3-4 day without chipping depending on what I am doing. The Revlon polish I used it last week for the first time and I was impressed with it. It lasted 5 days before it finally chipped and that was my fault I was doing laundry and I hit my finger somewhere and for some reason that chipped my nail. I loved it so much I had to use it again this week.  If you wish to try out the Julep polishes it is a subscription for about $19.95 I believe a month. You can get your first box free if you just want to try it out once to see if its worth your money by using the code FREEBOX. Just click  here  and check it out.

Home Chef

Hey guys!!! Do you guys ever struggle to figure out what to make for dinner everyday?? Do you guys want to change it up every once in a while and try something new??  That was me a few months back and I ran across Home Chef in a YouTube video and I clicked on the link she had and I tried it out! They make it really easy for you! They send a a binder so you can use it to put all the new recipes that you receive for future usage. You go online to your account and they have about 15 different meals for you to choose from. You can either order for 2 servings or 4 servings. Also you can customize your account if you are vegetarian or have any allergies so they will not show you the meals that you are unable to eat. Each meal doesn't take long to do. It can take you about 30 minutes for you to do each meal. This was one of the first meals I made: Crispy BBQ Tofu The ingredients for each recipe comes in separate bags and are organized. Each ingredient is por...
