ELF Studio Baked Highlighter

Hey guys!!! I have been on the search for a good powder highlighter and when I saw Ashley aka SuperAshley127 and Kathleen aka KathleenLights on YouTube talk about the ELF baked highlighters I knew I had to try them out. I found out they were $3 and I was sold.  There was 3 shades to choose from, but I decided to go with Moonlight Pearls. I already have somewhat of a bronze highlighter which I will talk about later and I heard that Moonlight Pearls is a dupe to Mary-Lou Manizer from The Balm so that's why I went with this one. I had been wanting The Balm's highlighter for a while and I thought why not this one? It is a gorgeous champagne color and when I swatched this in store I was impressed at how pigmented it was.  (Left: Dry Right:Wet) Could you die at this pigmentation though?! I love the beautiful glow it gives to my cheekbones. Depending on my mood I will apply it wet or dry.  When I use it wet I spray my brush with the ELF Makeup Mist ...

Birchbox April 2015 Unboxing

Hey guys!!! It is time to show you guys what I have received in my Birchbox this month. As always I am so excited to receive this subscription service every month and like I always say they have been stepping their game up lately. To think I almost cancelled this, but I am glad I didn't. Can we take a moment and appreciate this box?! It is beautiful I will def be keeping this one! Jouer Tint - I have always been wanting to try out the brand Jouer, but I never was able to till now. This is a small sample I will admit, but it is enough for me to tell if I will love the product or not. It is tint that you could use on your lips or on your cheeks. I am not sure if I will use it on my cheeks though because my cheeks can get oily. Whish Shave Crave Shaving Cream - I tried their body butter that I received from Birchbox before and I loved it. I have never tried a shaving cream since I am always using a shaving gel, but I heard shaving creams are better so I am excite...

Milani Rose Powder Blush

Hey guys!!! I have been wanting to try out more products from Milani especially after trying out their amazing Bella Eyes Eyeshadows . I had heard so much about these blushes from YouTube and they were great reviews so I had been itching on trying these. When I saw that Milani was having a giveaway which included a blush and a lipstick so I entered it just for the heck of it. I was so excited when I got the email telling me that I have won!  I got the Rose Powder Blush in the color Coral Cove and I was glad I got this color since I don't have a color like this in my collection. Can we appreciate the rose detail on this blush??! I am scared to continue using this blush because of it and I know I am not the only one haha. (heavy swatch) When I first swatched it I was a little disappointed because it swatched a little patchy, but I still wanted to give it a chance on my cheeks before making my mind up about it. After the first time it doesn't swatch patch...

Sephora VIB Sale Mini Haul

Hey guys!!! I wasn't going to do this post, but I decided to show you guys what I got even though I didn't get as much as I wanted. I really limited myself to 4 things and that's what I did. I am proud of myself that I was able to do so cause as you all makeup addicts out there know we want everything we see in sight haha.  Algenist Complete Eye Renewal Balm - I had been looking around for a holy grail eye cream and I kept getting samples from Sephora to try them out so I can see which one to get during this sale. Out of all of them I tried this one was the best one so we shall see if I continue to love it as time goes on. Laura Mercier Invisible Loose Setting Powder - As some of you know I had received a sample size of this product in my Ipsy bag before they starting sucking so bad for me and I fell in love. I love using this powder to set my under eyes and it doesn't crease at all. I love that I don't look powdery when I set my face as well. This is ...

IMATS NYC Haul!

Hey guys!!! I know it has been a while since I last posted, but my motivation just wasn't there anymore. I was always tired from work because work has been hectic and exhausting. Also I had a writer's block and I just couldn't do it. I went to IMATS this past Saturday and I got motivated again. I met a couple of my favorite YouTubers and I fangirled really hard! I got a few things from there and I wanted to get some from Morphe's booth, but the line was so freaking long I was like NO THANKS! I am just showing you guys what I got there and a few gifts I got from my friends as well. Sorry my pictures are a little blurry I am losing my touch, but I will do better on my next post. Those are all the things I got and as you can see I went crazy at the NYX booth haha. I am very excited to try everything out and let you guys know in the future what I think of everything. Thank you guys for sticking around and being patient with me. I am back and I c...
