Hey guys!!! I know it has been a minute since I posted a blogpost and I didn't finish Blogmas, but things got crazy for me. After all that I traveled and I am still out of town. I decided to do one more post before the new year.  I had been having acne issues I was trying to find what works for my skin. I had tried out quite a few things and all at once. It isn't the best idea to try out different products all at once it can really affect you skin and I learned that the hard way. My skin wasn't getting any better it was actually getting worse. Also I was eating anything peanut related for two months straight and I believe I broke out because of that as well.  I decided to stop it all and change up my skin care routine! Once I changed it keep up with it and see if I see a difference in my skin. I added a new product into my skin care regimen. I spoke to my friend Brittany (if you are interested in anything Mary Kay you can always contact her) and she recommended...

Hey guys!!!  When I was 15 I was horribly matched by a associate in Macy's for a Lancome foundation and ever since I never wanted to try foundation or anything since I was looking orange with the foundation. This product has been one of the first products I used ever since that experience. I wanted to start with a BB Cream first and then look for a foundation if I wanted to. L'OREAL Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream At the time when I purchased this my skin wasn't as bad as it is now(it is slowly better tho) and I didn't need much coverage. When I was trying to choose my shade I only saw 3 shades at CVS, but I looked at the website and I saw that there is actually 4 shades. I got the shade Medium and it is still a little light, but I made it work. One thing that scared me was that when I first swatched it in the store it came out white with little beads in it and I was like OMG how will I be able to choose my shade like this?  Once you blend in the...

Hey guys!!! I had to return something at Sephora so I decided to use the money I get back to buy other things. I saw the First Aid Beauty Hydrating Duo Set for $16 and I already love the Ultra Repair Cream so when I saw that it had the Ultra Repair Lip Therapy I decided to try it out! These products are good for if you have sensitive and very dry skin. Ultra Repair Cream My holy grail hand cream. I wash my hands many times a day and I tend to get really really dry hands because of it. I had tried so many hand creams, but nothing worked until I discovered this product. I put this on at night before bed and my hands feel really moisturized and ready for the day. This is a perfect product for this time of year. Ultra Repair Lip Therapy Another new holy grail product! I love to use this before I start applying my makeup so that way by the time I am done with my makeup I can remove it and my lips will be hydrated and ready to apply lip products. My lips feel re...

Hey guys!!! I am excited to show you this month's Birchbox because everything in it is a decent sample size. I got no foil packets this time around.  Acure Organics Sensitive Facial Cleanser-  This probiotic formula nourishes delicate skin as it cleans. I most likely won't use this just because I am scared to change around my skin care routine at the moment, but I will be giving it to someone else. Mirenesse Mattfinity Lip Rouge in Sydney-  It is a velvety color with a matte finish. It says that a lip liner is not necessary. I have heard my friend talk about this brand so much that I am excited to try this out. I hope it doesn't dry out my lips because of the matte finish. W3LL People Bio Brightener Stick-  This is a high-performance, all-natural formula adds a flattering shimmer while nourishing skin. I have heard one of my favorite YouTubers, GlamourWonderland, talk about this brand and I am excited to try this out especially since I love a goo...

Hey guys!!! Once I started watching YouTube one of the products that was raved about at the time were the Revlon Lip Butters and one day I went out I decided to buy one to see what all the rave was about. I was confused at first on which shade to try out, but I went with the shade Lollipop. (Left: one swipe Right: several swipes) I have a love hate relationship with this product. Since it is a lip butter it is sheer, but you can always build it up to get more pigmentation. This product is really easy to apply you don't need a lip liner, but I still use one. Although some people even say you don't need a mirror I still use one I don't want to risk walking around with messed up lips haha. It is really moisturizing on the lips and I do enjoy the formula, but there is one thing I hate so much.  I didn't notice it at first till just recently. This product has shimmer in it and I hate that. I will be conscious all day on if there is shimmer all over my...

Hey guys!!! Time for a quick review!! A product I had been loving lately I received it from my friend Sam in our swap . She sent me a ELF Smudge Pot in Back to Basics. I love these type of products as you know and I was really excited to try this product out to see if this is just as good as the Maybelline Color Tattoos. This is a pretty dark gold shade and I have been very into gold eyeshadows so I use this as a base everytime I use gold. This blends nicely when I blend it with either my finger or a brush. It lasts all day without creasing. I have used it with eyeshadow and with this on its own I love it both ways. You could also use this product as a liner if you wanted to.  Overall I love this product and if you are into eye bases or cream eyeshadows you should definitely try this especially since it is just $3!! So far almost everything I have tried from ELF I have loved. What are some of you guys favorite ELF products??  Thank you Sam for sending me...

Hey guys!!! Sorry it has been taking me a while to do this post I just had a lot of posts planned since I am doing Blogmas(if you haven't noticed already haha). I was really excited for this month's bag when I saw what I was getting.  I really love love this bag!! It is very fit for this time of year!! Marc Anthony Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Volume Shine Hairspray To be honest I have not used this yet just because I do not style my hair at all much so I wouldn't need any hairspray for anything. I will try it out once I do and I will get back to you guys later on. Did you guys get this in your bag?? What did you think of it?? Laura Mercier Invinsible Loose Setting Powder & Mini Fan Brush I was sooo excited to try this powder out. Since the product is so small I only use this under my eyes to set my concealer. After I apply this my under eyes feels really smooth I am not sure why and my concealer doesn't crease as much. I am in love with...

Hey guys!!! I love love love the Batiste Dry Shampoo , but before I traveled back in October I had ran out and I didn't have time to buy more. I went into a drugstore and the only thing I found was a Pssssst! Instant Dry Shampoo so I decided to go ahead and try it out.  I honestly do not like this dry shampoo, but I don't hate it. This dry shampoo will get the job done. It sucks up all the oils in your hair and it will stay like that till the next day. I hate the smell of it. To me it turns me off to a product if it doesn't smell good. Also a couple days ago I sprayed some in and someone told me that one side of my hair is white. This is definitely a product that you need to brush it out after a few minutes of applying it to your hair. The white cast that it leaves behind also turn me off to this product. Overall this is an okay dry shampoo. I will be going back to Batiste as soon as this is done haha. Have you guys tried this product?? What do you think?? ...

Hey guys!!! Today Bath & Body Works were having a sale on their hand soaps. They were $2.50 each and since I missed out on their sale on the candles yesterday I decided to take advantage on this sale. Here is what I picked up: I had a coupon to use if I spent $10 or more I could get a free product up to $13 so I got four hand soaps. I got the foaming hand soaps because those are my favorite type that they carry. The scents I got are Japanese Cherry Blossom(one of my fav scents of all time), Black Cherry Merlot, Salted Caramel, and Merry Cookie. The free product I picked up is the True Blue Spa 60-Second Manicure Hand Scrub with Sugar. I know you are supposed to exfoliate your skin at least once a week and hopefully this will do the job. I still need a body scrub do you guys recommend any?? What are some of you guys favorite scents from Bath & Body Works??

Hey guys!!! I have a few ELF brushes and I love most of the ones I have. Kathleen Lights on YouTube mentioned this ELF Studio Mineral Powder Brush and said that it would be good for bronzer. I was using the Mary Kay Powder Brush and I will still continue to use it, but it is kinda a rough brush I don't like how it feels on my cheeks. I love how soft the ELF Studio Brushes feel so I wanted to try it out. This applies bronzer beautifully and blends it out amazingly. I love how soft this feels on my cheeks while I apply the bronzer. This is a great brush to use if you want to contour your cheeks because of the shape it has. It is a "rounded dome-tip and densely packed bristles" brush. Just like the other ELF Studio brushes that I own this one doesn't shed when I deep clean the brush. You could honestly use the brush for other things too and not just bronzer like for example blush or loose powder. This is becoming another holy grail brush. At first I...

Hey guys!!! I am in love with my Bite Beauty High Pigment Pencil in Pomegranate and when I saw there was a mini set with different shades I was so excited I HAD to get it! It was $25 and it came with 4 different shades. One full size Pencil is $24 so I thought it was a great deal! It comes with Winterberry, Sable, Rhubarb, and Pomegranate. One thing I love is that the box has a nice big mirror inside! (Top to Bottom: Sable, Rhubarb, Pomegranate, and Winterberry) I am happy to have a backup of my favorite Pomegranate shade. Just like the Pomegrante shade these last about 4 hours with a clear lip liner and it touches up beautifully. My lips don't dry with this product. It actually feels really moisturizing on my lips.  The website says this product will give a matte look and to me it is a semi matte finish since there is a shine on your lips after you apply it. You can always make it fully matte by applying powder on your lips if you prefer it that way...

Hey guys!! I know it is late, but I did all of my black friday shopping online so I had to wait till everything came in the mail. I want to show you the few beauty things I got. Sephora Alterna Caviar Moisture Trio- It was $10. I am trying to find my holy grail hair products and I wanted to try something new. (I think it is still on the website) Kat Von D Lip Love Set- It was $10. I been wanting to try the Kat Von D lip products and it was the perfect thing to get to try them out. Ulta  Maybelline The Rocket Mascara - My most favorite mascara of all time. I had to repurchase it so I can always have it in my collection. Maybelline FIT me Concealer- I heard this was a close dupe to the NARS radiant creamy concealer so I was interested in trying this one out! Target Macadamia Deep Repair Mask- Anothing thing I been wanting to try because it is really hyped up on YouTube and I am hating my hair right now. I wouldn't buy it cause it is expens...

Hey guys!!! I have been in search for a holy grail eyeliner for my waterlines and I heard great things about the NARS eyeliners so I decided I will try one out. I bought the NARS Larger Than Life Long-Wear Eyeliner in Via Veneto.  When I first swatched this liner on my hand and I let it set I rubbed my hand and it didn't budge!!! I was excited to try it in my waterlines the next day! My thoughts on this eyeliner is that its okay. I line my waterlines and then I finish the rest of my makeup. By the time I am done it fades so I have to retouch it up. I don't like that I have to retouch every single time. It does last quite a bit on my waterlines, but not as long as I wanted it to especially since it is a more expensive eyeliner. It doesn't make my eyes water right when I put it on while I am wearing contacts so this is contact friendly.  This pencil is a retractable pencil and I like that! That just means one less pencil to sharpen haha. On the end of ...

Hey guys!!! I changed my nails once again and I love my nails this week. What are some of you guys favorite glitter polishes?? I just threw away a few old glitter polishes and now I want new ones so please give me suggestions. First I used Nailtini in Champagne on all of my nails.... On my two accent nails I applied Julep in America.... Here are my nails: These nails will last me about 4 days without chipping. I love the Nailtini formula and I hope to get more shades in the future. Nailtini is 2 coats opacity and the Julep was just one. I want to do green nails next...

Hey guys!!! Yesterday I reviewed the Makeup Geek Vegas Lights Palette and yesterday I played with the palette and I decided to show guys the look I came up with.  I start off by priming my face and eyes. I forgot to include it in the pic, but I primed my face with my Laura Mercier Hydrating Foundation Primer and my eyes with the Urban Decay Primer Potion . I let those set for 2 minutes before I start on my eyes.  I first used the shade Mirage underneat my brow as a highlight shade. Then I used Desert Sands in my crease as a transition shade I just wanted a light wash of it so I only got a tiny bit of product on my brush. I applied the ELF Smudge Pot in Back to Basics all over my lid so the gold shade can pop even more. I applied Casino all over the lid and I blended it out till I was satisfied. Lastly I applied the shade Bada Bing on the outer v of my eye and blended it into the crease. I applied little by little till I got it to be as dark as I wanted i...
