Hi my dear friends. I thought it would be fun to do another post on makeup! I know that I love makeup and others may or may not feel the same way. If you don't really like makeup or get into makeup that is totally okay! I also do not like things. We all are different and that is way makes us unique :) I previously did a OBB Vol I You can check that out  here  . I chose to do NYX Cosmetics and this time I didn't choose a drugstore brand. This time I chose LORAC Cosmetics. Let's begin! My favorite product from LORAC is their eyeshadows!! So creamy and intensely pigmented!! I LOVE!! Some of my favorite from the LORAC PRO palette are Taupe, Gold, Champagne, Nude, and Espresso :) Another favorite from LORAC is the POREfessional concealor! This concealor is a multi-purpose concealor, meaning it can cover up zits, redness, fine lines, dark circles, and highlight. Love love love love this stuff. Next is Lipstick! I recently discovered the LORAC lips...

I feel like I haven't done a beauty review in a while. So today is the day I am doing another one. Today's review is on the new  L'Oreal Lumi Cushion Foundation This is a newer product that seems to just hit the drugstore's this past month. The price at Ulta is $16.99 You can find it cheaper at Target, Walmart, CVS, and Walgreen's I have checked ;) As for the foundation in its self, this is a very high quality foundation. Which I love. It is blendable, very lightweight, easy to use, and this product gives you a flawless finish. All things I love when buying a foundation.  This is a more expensive product but it totally lived up to the price and it is great quality. This almost looks and feels like a high end product.  Possible dupe alert! I would recommend this to anyone who has normal to dry skin. You can try this if you are oily but it is not recommended since this does give you a dewy/glowy finish.  The colo...

Hi everyone! Today I thought I would put up a post for all the teens going back to middle or high school on all about affordable makeup that's appropriate for your age! Lets begin.. To start lets talk about the base. Foundation. The Ready Set Gorgeous foundation is one of my favs! Such good quality for such a small price. Around $6-$8 in America. Highly reccomend you trying this out even if your not a teen, I cover blemishes, spots, uneveness like a pro.   Next recommendation this L'Oreal Foundation. If you are oily or combo skin this will work wonders on your skin. This is a bit more pricey than usual for the drugstore but wayyyyy worth it. I also like the powder 2x the mattenessssss Last but not least another L'Oreal product. These are another very inexpensive option to try out, they do as they say match your skin. Whether you are warm, neutral, and cool undertones this is designed for you. Prices range from $6-$8. Lets talk about ...

Now that its officially spring, maybe not outside yet...but we can start changing into spring season. My favorite part of spring is changing up your makeup looks from winter, adding pops of color to your lips or lids. Makeup is the easiest to change in my opinion. You can go right out to the drugstore and buy a $5 dollar lipstick, or maybe spoil yourself with a higher end or brand product. Simply you can tell yourself because I CAN spoil myself once in a while.   Each year I try to create a new signature look for me. Sometimes its the latest trend for spring or maybe something that I want to create on my own.   Last year, the look I went for was to branch out on my lip color choices. I am usually a nude and light pink type of girl, so I went to Sephora and looked for colors that I would wear and to try out.   I came out with bright coral\orange lipsticks. I enjoyed trying out new things, but as for this year I want to try the DEWY skin\Fresh face for spring...

Happy Monday friends! Today I thought its Monday, day after the Super Bowl which I owe a big CONGRATS to the Patriots for wining yesterday! What a great game! For today's post I thought we shall talk about helpful tips that I want to share with you! Lets begin! Our topic is : Makeup Brushes Makeup Brushes can be great, and a pain in the butt sometimes. Despending how much or little money you want to invest. When I first started using makeup around the age of 14 or 15 I didnt need or use makeup brushes all I wore was mascara, very little eyeliner on my lower lash line and that was it. It wasn't tell I was about 16 or 17 to start using concealor, blush, eyeshadow, bronzer, and powder. Once I started learning more techniques I fell in love with makeup. I started buying brushes at the drugstores for around $1 to $3 dollars a piece. I started with the ELF brushes brand. Those worked for me for a while, but the quality just is not great and they do not last as long as a brus...

Happy Saturday everybody A round my house today we are relaxing. The way I prefer my Saturday's to be 😊 I knew I wanted to post something today so I am going to share with you my January Favorites! January has been a busy month. Running around with my head cut off at times. As much as I hope I can take a break from it all I know February is going to be just as busy. These days of lazy Saturday's are limited so I need to cherish each one of doing nothing❤️ My January Makeup Favorites :   1. My Bobbi Brown Surf and Sand Eyeshadow Palette. I REALLY love this palette at the moment. I great balance of eye shadows! I had been digging in my makeup collection to find old products to re-introduce to myself and this was one of them. Not only great pigmentation/quality but the name reminds me of a beach! That is were I am wishing I am right now☀️ 2. Benefit Hoola Bronzer. My all time favorite bronzer hands down. I worship this product 🙌 such an amazing product where it is perfect for my...
