Hello everyone! In celebration of National Kissing Day (July 6th), I’ve decided to share 5 of the lippies I’ve been loving this summer on my blog this week. I’m really loving easy, “My Lips But Better” colors this summer. My perfect lipsticks are ones that I don’t have to worry about touching up a million times or might move around my face. Also, please excuse the strange lighting in some of the photos. Since the move, I’m still figuring out the perfect place to take pics with natural lighting. In the picture below, I’ve swatched each lip color so you can get an idea of the tones and texture of each…

Ulta Haul – 21 Days of Beauty 2017
From the middle of March to the beginning of April, Ulta held it’s 21 Days of Beauty where each day three or so products are marked down by up to 50%! After checking the calendar on the website, I determined there were two days I wanted to order on. The first day had the It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty palette and the Dr. Brandt Pores No More Primer for half off! These two products are normally over $40 each so I couldn’t pass up on the opportunity to get them for about $20 each. On the second day, the Urban Decay Perversion Mascara was also half off bringing down the cost of…

April Faves
It’s that time of the month again, time for monthly favorites! I’m currently in the middle of packing to move from Southern California to Northern California so I haven’t been shopping for many new products because I don’t want to have to pack them when I leave. Although I haven’t purchased many products, I was able to “shop” through my current makeup collection and rediscovered some amazing products! This list is in no specific order so let’s jump right in! The first product is the NYX Strobe of Genius Illuminating Palette. I bought this at IMATS LA 2017 because I wanted to try different colored highlighters without breaking the bank. However,…

March Faves
Like most people are saying, I can not believe it’s already April. At the end of last year, I had a life-changing realization that as I get older, time seems to pass so much faster. As a kid, I remember waiting and waiting and waiting for Christmas or my birthday to come each year and it felt like I was waiting forever! Now I’m surprised by the arrival by those days. Moving past that, this week I’m sharing my March Faves! I have a few new products as well as products I rediscovered this month so let’s jump right in! Rimmel Stay Matte Makeup Primer Earlier in the month,…

2016 Beauty Favorites!
Like many other, I still can’t believe 2016 is already over and half of January has already passed! A lot happened over the past year and I can’t wait to hit the ground running in 2017. While I don’t personally believe in New Year’s resolutions, I do have some goals I want to achieve throughout the year and if time is already flying by, I better get to work! However, that’s a topic for another day. Today I am going to go over the personal care products (i.e. skincare, makeup, haircare, etc.) I couldn’t live without during 2016. So, let’s jump into my 2016 Ride or Die list! When I…

My Travel Makeup Kit
Makeup has been one of my passions ever since I found the beauty community of YouTube six years ago. I love watching people create new, exciting, and crazy makeup looks. Most of what I’ve learned about makeup over the years I’ve learned from YouTube and the beauty community continues to be one of my favorites. Today, I am going to give you a glimpse of my makeup collection with a look into what I bring with me when I travel. I’m starting with this because it will allow you to see my favorite and most used products. Most of the products I packed are ones that I use every day and…
