bareMinerals : BareSkin Foundation: Review ♥

3 Comments

This foundation has been the talk of the town lately, and I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it when it first came out. bareMinerals is a brand that I don’t really have much of in my makeup collection. When I first started using makeup, I wasn’t sure what to use, and this happened to be the easiest and most natural brand that I had heard of. As I became better and more in love with makeup, I branched out to try other brands and bareMinerals sort of fell to the side. I’m not a huge fan of powdered or “mineral” products because in my opinion, they don’t really last all day, therefore, bareMinerals was not my favorite.

On the other hand, I do love natural finishes and “no makeup, makeup” which lead me to the reason why I love this product so much. When I heard that bareMinerals, the best of the best for natural makeup, was coming out with a liquid foundation I automatically knew I had to get my hands on it, and of course, I did.

I can honestly say that this has been my go-to foundation for the summer, but I won’t spoil the rest of the details for you! Watch the video to see what my overall opinion of this foundation was 🙂

 

 

Quick & Easy Fun Summer Makeup ♥

2 Comments

The warm, sunny days have finally arrived here in New York and I couldn’t be more excited about it. Summer is my favorite time of year because of the beautiful weather and of course the fun, bright colors we can wear (especially with makeup)!

For this look, I decided to keep it very simple but still fun and bright for the summer. I definitely think it is perfect for a summer day look, I got so many compliments that day while out and about. It’s seriously so easy that anyone can do this!

I hope you guys enjoy it, if you do please subscribe to my channel, like my video, comment & share it as well. Thanks a bunch!

March Beauty Favorites ♥ 2014

Leave a comment

March came and went! I can’t believe we’re almost half way through the year again. Every time I do these videos it reminds me of how fast time is flying.

For March I didn’t have too many favorites, since the weather in New York was super cold the past few months my face was extremely dry. I was trying to avoid wearing too much makeup so that my skin could heal and get back to its normal, non-dry self which is why I don’t have many favorites this month. Don’t you worry though, April is going to be a fun month for favorites because I’ve bought so many goodies in the past few weeks that I’m so excited to try new things and tell you guys about it. Plus, IMATS is this weekend and I will be there on saturday, I hope to get some goodies there as well, so my April favorites should be fun!

anyway, here is the video. I hope you guys enjoy it and like always, if you do, please like, comment, subscribe, and share the video with your friends!
