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???

Whitening Lightning Color Your Smile Lighted Lip Gloss

Hey guys!!! Have you guys heard of  Jaclyn Hill ?? If not you have been missing out. She does the best make-up tutorials and recently she had a brush set with Sigma which I missed out on cause I couldn't afford it at the time. Then she announced she came out with her own lip gloss through Whitening Lightning and decided to go ahead and get this one even if it was a little pricey, but I saved up money for it. See how pigmented that color is?? This is the color Rose Hill and the website says it is a romantic and feminine hue. It is a beautiful rosy red color and I love it!! This gloss is amazing because first it has a mirror on the side. Just remember to remove the sticker that is on top of the mirror, but I haven't done that yet that's why it looks dirty on the picture. Secondly, when you open this gloss it lights up. So if you need to reapply when you are out and you don't have a mirror and/or you are in a dark place you are covered. Last but n...

Pssssst! Instant Dry Shampoo

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?? ...

Favorite New York City Restaurants

Hey guys!!! I thought I would do something different on my blog today. I was just on vacation to New York and I have my list of favorite restaurants that I would like to recommend. Some of these restaurants I HAVE to go back everytime I go to New York because it is that good! 1.  Mighty Quinn's Barbeque : If you love brisket then this is the place for you. This place has the BEST brisket I have ever tasted and I always compare any other brisket to this one. So far no brisket has been able to compare to it.  2. Shake Shack: OMG these are the best burgers I have ever had. I especially love the SmokeShack burger it has bacon in it. I love me some bacon. I enjoy their cheese fries and their lemonade. Ever since I tried these burgers I compare them to every other burger place I go to. I haven't found anything better yet. 3.  Hana Japanese Cuisine We recently discovered this restaurant last week when I was in town which I was ...
