2015 Beauty Favorites: Face

Hey guys!!!

Finally I am getting to writing about my 2015 yearly favorites. I decided that I will split it up this time around because last year my post was so long! I feel like no one read it because of that so I have split it up into Face, Eyes, and Lips. Today will be all about the FACE! 


I didn't find any amazing primers this year that really stood out to me so hopefully in 2016 I can find one. Now on to the rest of the face products.

  • Too Faced Born This Way Foundation- This is one of two holy grail foundations. I love using this especially during the winter time. My skin tends to get dry in some areas and this is great for keeping my face hydrated because of the coconut water that is in the foundation. I am out of this now and I am missing it so much..
  • L'OREAL Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation- Now for the summer I am in love with this foundation. Granted I still get oily, but it keeps me matte for a good part of the day. Once I blot it is good to go. I love the fact that the this line has more yellow undertone shades. 
  • NYX Cosmetics Dark Circle Concealer- I never get good sleep during the week and my bags are on fleek everyday especially in the inner corner of my eye. I love using this salmon colored concealer underneath my other concealers because it makes me look more awake. I cannot go without this product anymore and if I don't use it I can tell the difference and regret not using it.
  • Maybelline FIT Me Concealer- This is my holy grail drugstore concealer. It is so lightweight and it is very easy to blend. Most importantly it has good coverage. One trick I learned is to take off the stopper once you can't get anymore product out so you can get the rest of the product out.
  • It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Anti-Aging Concealer- I received this from Gen Beauty and I am obsessed with this one. Ultra full coverage and very thick. If you set this concealer aka "bake" then your concealer will not crease, but if not it will crease for sure. 
  • Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder- My favorite setting powder of all time. It sets your makeup beautifully without looking cakey.
  • Milani Rose Powder Blush- The blush shade I have is Coral Cove. This blush is really pigmented that I tap my brush on the product and it is enough for both cheeks. It blends easily so if you accidentally give yourself clown cheeks there is no issues with blending. I actually want the rest of the shades in this line. 
  • CARGO Cosmetics Water Resistant Blush- This blush shade is Los Cabos which is another coral, but it is a shimmery coral and the Milani is a matte one. This blush gives you a beautiful glow and I love it for summer time, but lets be real I wore it today. I don't follow seasons I wear whatever I want whenever I want.
  • Jouer Tint- This blush shade is petal. This one is a pretty pink shade and it is the first tint type product that I tried that I actually love. It is matte and really pigmented. It is actually really easy to work with which I was very surprised about and this is one of my go to blushes if I can't decide which one to use.
  • Benefit Watts Up- This is my go to cream to powder highlighter for everyday. This always helps any highlighter I put on top last all day. Ever since I saw Shaaanxo using it I have been hooked and will always have in my collection.
  • ELF Studio Baked Highlighter- One of my go to highlighters for everyday. I am working on a project pan so I haven't been using it as much, but before that everyday without a doubt. I have the shade Moonlight Pearls and I heard it was a dupe to the Mary-Lou Manizer. The Benefit Watts Up and this ELF highlighter is my holy grail combo to do.
Those are all my favorite face products of 2015. What were some of you guys favorite products from 2015?? Next one will be eyes!

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 ...
