Too Faced Born This Way Foundation

Hey guys!!!

It has been a while since I have spoken about a foundation, but that is only because I tend to steer clear from trying out too many foundations at once. I get scared because I because I break out easily if I am not careful. The Too Faced Born This Way Foundation was getting a lot of hype even from people with oily and sensitive skin.


I wanted to try this out because the reviews I saw this looks beautiful on them and very natural on the skin. One thing that intrigued me is that this has coconut water and I was interested to try this out because of that factor. Also it is oil free which is very important to me.

This foundation is so amazing for me during the cold winter months. I had been testing out during the summer and by the end of the day my skin was a greasy mess. My skin gets dry during the winter time so this is great to keep my skin moisturized. 

I did try it out with different mattifying primers even the Makeup Forever Mattifying primer and it still got greasy for some reason. When I was in New York last month I honestly did not get oily with this foundation on and I had it on for a very long time. The air is dryer there and it was cold when I went so for me that made a difference.

One thing I love about it is that even though I do end up looking like a grease ball my foundation stays in place even after a long day of work. It doesn't break up on my skin like other foundations do. It gives me medium to full coverage and my imperfections are covered up all day. 
My skin really looks like skin, doesn't look cakey, and looks flawless. 

Overall I really do enjoy this foundation, but I will love it once it starts getting cold here. If you have Normal to Dry skin I think you will love this product. Oily skin people if you have a good primer I think you can get this to work for you.

Have you guys tried this product out?? What do you think of it?? What is your favorite primer to use with this foundation??

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.

What is the difference between Chemical & Physical Exfoliants??

 Hey guys!! What is exfoliation for? Your skin regenerates every 28 days or so and sun exposure and aging slows that process down. That is where exfoliation is key. It removes dead skin cells, brighten your skin complexion, and fades acne scars.  Getting rid of your dead skin cells is very important because it can help prevent bacteria, dirt, and sweat from getting stuck underneath the skin's surface. It can also help prevent and treat acne and inflamed pores.  What type of exfoliations are there? There are two types of exfoliations. Physical and Chemical. Physical Exfoliation Physical exfoliation is my least favorite and I do not recommend. Here is why. Physical exfoliant products uses micro-sized grains, beads, and particles to remove dead skin cells. Basically anything that scrubs at your skin like tiny granules. It is made of coffee grounds, walnut shell powder, sugar, rice, and salt. Other examples of physical exfoliation are a cleansing brush, a konjac sponge, a cloth, and a
