Who doesn't want to feel the glow these days? I know I am always in the mood for a little (or a lot) of highlighter to brighten up my everyday looks. With Halloween just a few days away I thought this would be a great product to share with you guys. Highlighters are really in the spotlight (literally) right now. Every brand and...
First off, I received this from Influenster for my thoughts. At first I was a little hesitant about the color they sent, I would have chosen more of a peach or nude. Overall I love the outcome because it brought me out of my shell a little. Marc describes this blush as "luminous flush recreated the kind of glow only found on a...
Happy August! It's been too long! I've been busy building my photography and makeup business along with other life adventures but today I am back and ready to throw my favorites at you from the previous months! Get ready, it's a long one! Kylie Lip Kit - CandyK - This is by far my favorite liquid lipstick formula. It dries ultra velvety, no...
The cold weather has been lingering slightly for the past month so my skin has been on the dryer side. I have been trying out a couple different things and here are a few of my current dry skincare favorites since it's been a while! Cerave Healing Ointment - I absolutely love this! When you first apply it it's a thick ointment and...
I have been obsessed with this foundation for the past two months atleast. It has the most beautiful perfecting satin finish I've seen in a long time. I don't find it heavy or cakey. I currently wear their lightest shade, Breeze 0.5. This stuff is perfection. I loved it all winter and I have a feeling it will be just as great for...
This makeup of the day I was going for modern glam. I love a good winged liner plus a bold lip. Give Me Glow Cosmetics is an awesome indie makeup brand that has tons of liquid lipstick colors. The formula is soft, smooth, and stays on forever! She carries dupes for higher end brand shades. I can't wait to purchase more colors in...
I finally got my hands on the Kylie Jenner lip kits I had been eyeing! The shade Mary Jo is the color I am wearing in this MOTD. I love a classic red lip and this one is perfect. I really love the formula of Kylie's Lip Kits. They dry to a velvet finish and have superb lasting power. Each kit contains one...
This MOTD was inspired by a look Jaclyn Hill filmed with a basic eye, lashes, and a dark vampy lip. I've been loving a statement lip recently and this fits the bill. I wanted something, clean, modern, but a little edgy. I used Anastasia's liquid lipstick in the shade Potion which is a deep matte eggplant. In some lighting it can look black...
After searching for months, actually probably about a year now, I finally found liquid lipstick storage I love! I have tried bags, canisters, clear drawer makeup organizers, the list goes on. I went to Homegoods and looked there for something affordable but still no success. Then this past Sunday I went to Target to grab a few things and came across this glass...
Along with color correcting (mentioned in my post yesterday), "highlighters of a different color" are trending like crazy for Spring 2016. Brands like Jeffree Star Cosmetics are releasing their own versions in the next couple months so keep an eye out. Image by DKNG I love indie beauty brands. I find them inspiring, creative, and it feels great to support a small business....
If you haven't heard about Ben Nye's Banana powder (theee banana powder) then you probably live under a rock. But joking aside, Ben Nye cosmetics has been around since 1967 and is huge in the entertainment industry for its superbly made formulas for film, television, and stage makeup. His line has a range of outstanding face powders in shades anywhere from an olive...

If nudes are your thing or you just love a good affordable lipstick, NYX's new Lingerie liquid lip collection is worth checking out. They are priced at $7.00 a piece. NYX has promo codes on occasion too if you purchase through their website! The texture is super creamy and dries to a satin matte finish. I love the color selection in this line....
I have had this brush from Ecotools for a while now and this morning I thought, why not try it out for applying my liquid foundation? O.M.G. This brush glides foundation over my skin flawlessly. Its finish is similar to airbrush and I'm hooked! I have yet to try it with any other liquid foundation other than my Born This Way from TooFaced...
