Green Eye Summer Look

 Primer: e.l.f. Poreless Face Primer.

 I'm really not a huge fan of this primer. It's something I could use for a day to day primer until it runs out.. It's very thick at first which I don't like, then it makes your skin silky feeling. I do like that aspect. The reason I won't be using this product again is the fact that after all my makeup was applied (this product is the only one that I haven't been wearing/I've barely used before) my lower part of my face started breaking out and itching really bad. It was the area I applied the most to. I enjoy a lot of e.l.f. items, but this isn't one for me. I would like to try their other primers.









Foundation: L'oreal Infallible Pro-Glow in the shade 201 classic ivory. I've seen a lot of good reviews on this product and a lot of negative ones. I personally enjoy this foundation. I didn't the first time I wore it because I was use to L'oreal Infallible Pro-Matte foundation. This formula is definitely not as good as the pro-matte. It's still a good drug store foundation in my opinion. It's not thick or too high on coverage, but it still makes my skin look healthy and glowing.





Concealer: tart Shape Tape in the shade fair. I've also seen mixed reviews on this concealer, but mainly good ones! I love this one. It has high coverage and helps me even out my face and highlight just the right areas. I really recommend this product!



Bronzer: Benefit Hoola Quickie Contour Stick.
I was skeptical of this product. I have pretty fair skin, so I feel like cream contour products may end up looking too dark or muddy on my skin. I got this as a free sample the last time I shopped on Sephora's website and I was surprisingly impressed. I'm not sure if it has completely won me over yet into purchasing the full size, but I'm sure after trying it out a few more times I'll be ready to make that purchase! 😂






Setting Powder: it Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Pressed. 
Another great Sephora sample that I really enjoyed. If you have awful pores like myself, then I really recommend this powder!
 Eyebrows: Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer in the shade Taupe. NYX Control Freak Eyebrow gel. I've already gushed about how much I love this product before, but this has really changed my eyebrow look for the better! I've really been enjoying this clear brow gel too.
Blush: City Color Be Matte Blush in the shade Fresh Melon. These are really nice blushes. This is very pigmented, so apply light-handed or you will for sure ruin your look. 😂 I really mean it. I was shocked at how pigmented they were. A plus for me is that I received these blushes from one of my Ipsy bags.                           
Highlight: Anastasia Beverly Hills Nicole Guerriero Glow Kit in the shade Forever Lit.
I love this glow kit, but I have a hard time pulling the colors off with my skin tone. They may work better with me once I fake tan. I went very light-handed with this highlight just like my blush!



Eyes: Too Faced Sweet Peach palette, ColourPop Creme gel liner in the shade Call me, Skone Tattooed eyeliner, Ardell 110 natural lashes with Duo lash glue, and Ulta Beauty Maximum lashes mascara.

I'll make the eye part easy and recommend every product. They're all amazing and I loved how my eyes turned out for this look. With the palette, I decided to go a green eye route,since most looks with this palette is of course peach looks. All the shades in this palette are stunning.
Eye look step by step.

Base: Peaches 'n Cream (matte peach cream)
Crease: Luscious  (shimmer light gold)
Outer to middle of lid: Bless Her Heart (shimmer dark emerald) 
Outer Crease: Bellini (shimmer gold)
Outer Corner: Peach Pit (shimmer dark purple) 
Inner Corner: Nectar (shimmer light cream)
Highlight: White Peach  (shimmer white cream)

 I did use a little of tarte Rainforest of the sea marine boosting mist on some of my eye brushes to make the colors pop more.



I love both of these eyeliners. I used the Colourpop one in the water line and tight line, then the Skone one on top of the lid and winged it out slightly. 


Then, I applied my lashes with Duo lash glue, curled my lashes, and added mascara. I love the formula of this mascara, but hate the wand! 😭  I swear I stab myself in the eye every time!

 Lips: bh Cosmetics ShaaanXO Lipsticks palette. 
I love all the shades in this palette. It's great for spring and summer looks! It's a plus because it comes with 9 eyeshadows on one side and 9 lip colors on the other side. I used the dark orange-red color on the top right corner in the picture.

My finished green eye summer look:

Tarte [Make Believe in Yourself] Mystical Dreamy Blues Tutorial

 Tarte [Make Believe in Yourself] Mystical Dreamy Blues Tutorial  I recently did a review the Tarte Make Believe in Yourself   eyeshadow palette. In that review I shared some looks that I created with it and will be sharing each of those tutorials with you. First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream. I started this look by prepping my skin with First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream. I used this because my skin was so dry! I followed that up with Physicians Formula Primer Argan Wear (with coconut and argan oil). I used that as my primer today.  I also used some color corrector concealer from the brand Aurora in the shade Pistachio. This is a new favorite of mine! I love how well it covers up any redness or blemishes. This was mentioned in my last Ipsy blog (I'll link below).  Physicians Formula Primer Argan Wear Aurora Pro Color Corrector (Pistachio).  EOS lip balm I moisturized my lips with some  EOS lip balm and ...

Makeup Monday // JSC Jawbreaker + Mini Breaker

Makeup Monday // JSC Jawbreaker + Mini Breaker I wasn't sure if I'd bring palettes back to my blog or not since they're discussed so much on my channel , but for sake of a pretty photo-op moment, I'm doing this. Ha!  I'm usually over the moon for every Jeffree Star Cosmetics launch and this one wasn't any different. I feel like only Jeffree could make a palette this full of insane colors and get away with it. With that being said when opening the Jawbreaker palette I can honestly say I did feel a little overwhelmed which is weird because I'm not one to shy away from color. I think it can still be challenging finding the right shades to put together to complement each other, but I can say once you dip into the shades that feeling goes away quickly. It's not as intimidating as you think it is. I created four colorful while still bring wearable looks with the Jawbreaker and had fun each day picking the palette up. I love being excited to do ...

Skincare Reviews // Coola, Vasanti, Clinique, Avatara, & I Dew Care

Skincare Reviews // Coola, Vasanti, Clinique, Avatara, & I Dew Care Coola Sport White Tea Moisturizer SPF 50   $32 I took this gem with me on vacation and it did amazing! With an SPF 50 I didn’t have to worry about getting my face burnt. Who wants dry, red, and peeling skin when you have videos to film and blogs to get done? Not me! I took my skincare very seriously and this item made it super easy! Although, this has SPF is was just a moisturizer. It also felt just like a moisturizer, not oily, greasy, or film-like at all! It sank right into my skin and kept me protected. I can also say this worked with my sensitive skin well and didn't break me out at all! If you're fair, burn easily, and have sensitive skin I really recommend this product. Even if you don't, I recommend this as a great SPF moisturizer that everyone could benefit from.  Vasanti Brighten Up! Enzymatic Face Rejuvenator $29 I tried this product sometime last yea...
