Foundations // Makeup

I forgot to post about these foundations, like I had planned. Since I've been enjoying both of them so much I wanted to post this still and hopefully it will help you decide on if either would be a good fit for you or not. 




1.0 Fl Oz $36
My Shade: Fair 103
Shade Range: 42 shades
Finish: Natural Matte 
Coverage: Medium to Full - Buildable 

*VEGAN | CRUELTY FREE | TALC FREE | PARABEN FREE | OIL FREE | FRAGRANCE FREE

I was super excited about the 'Meet Your Hue' launch from Dose. This foundation is a natural matte finish while not drying out your face. Applied with a hydrating primer on my combo-to-dry skin it is a perfect combo for an all day wear. I think with oily skin you could get by with just a regular primer and it would wear well. My shade is in the fair range (of course) but is the lightest neutral undertone in the line, I believe. The shade range is amazing and I was blown away by it and how many undertones are offered. The coverage easily gets to full so I go light handed for medium and apply it normally for a full coverage glam. Paired with the seamless sponge from Dose, it is perfection. While mentioning the sponge I wanted to include how much I love it. It applies, not only this foundation, but any I have applied with it flawlessly! To wrap up this one I think you will love it if you have oily skin and like coverage. For normal skin types I would say only if you like semi mattes and coverage and if you're more on the dry side like me the preference would depend not just on coverage and finish, but if you're comfortable wearing semi mattes. I know some don't so this might not be one for you unless you like mattes with hydrating primers like I do. Oh, and the applicator is a pump!



 0.95 Fl Oz $6.49
My Shade: Porcelain
Shade Range: 20 shades
Finish: Dewy 
Coverage: Medium to Full - Buildable 

*Cruelty-free, gluten-free, talc-free, and vegan shades. 

We're flipping this entirely.. This one is not only drugstore and drugstore price, but also dewy. I also like to apply with this with a regular or even a matte primer so it last the longest on my face. My shade matches me well for drugstore shades, but the shade range is set at 20 which isn't awful for drugstore, but could still use some more undertones in my opinion. Again I'm blown away by the coverage. This one you have to build more for those results than having them from the start with the Dose foundation. It does build up to medium and full coverage. The finish is dewy and incredible. My skin looks so healthy and glows while wearing this foundation. I like to apply it with a sponge also. If you have combo or dry you will love this foundation. If you have normal I would pair it with a matte primer and if you have oily skin type you might just want to run in the opposite direction of this foundation. Haha... It's a good drugstore favorite of mine for my dry skin. The applicator is still the wonky stick (like the regular PhotoFocus has), but the nasty paint smell is gone with this dewy one!

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...
