It has been a while since I put up a makeup tutorial, I sincerely apologize for that. I was on vacation and then when I came back and was ready to edit this video, my computer unfortunately broke. Thankfully I was able to get it fixed and I am now back in action.

I plan on being more consistent with my videos and my blog, so stay tuned for a lot more posts and videos! If you have any requests or recommendations please feel free to leave them below!

This look is a smokey eye using navy eyeshadow. I decided to play with a few products that I haven’t touched in a while and see where it would take me. I am extremely happy with the outcome and I hope you guys are too 🙂

Lips of The Moment ♥ Pink-ish Nude

Leave a comment

Out of all the makeup products a girl could ever have, I must say that lip products are by far my favorite. There is something about expressing yourself through your lip color that just gets me. I can’t get enough. I’m that person that would walk around wearing green lipstick without a care in the world. Because of this, I have decided to do a new little series on my blog  called LOTM (lips.of.the.moment). I tend to go through phases where I will wear the same combination of lip products for a week straight, sometimes even a whole month straight! So I decided to show you guys what my favorite lip combo of the moment is!

There are many times where I take a picture and post it on Instagram or any other social network, and everyone wants to know what lipstick I’m wearing. Instead of responding to a million people with the same answer, everyone can now see my favorite lip combos right here 🙂 I hope you guys enjoy these type of posts, I have fun making them! (and of course, its another excuse to try new lip combo’s andddd buy new lip products. hehehehe 😉 )

For today’s L.O.T.M post I want to show you my go-to everyday lip combo, as of recent. It is a pink-ish/nude combination that I have been loving so much to the point that I have not put it down since I discovered it!

I haven’t been wearing much makeup recently since I have been super busy and haven’t had time to get glam. This pink/nude lip is so natural and perfect for everyday! I actually wasn’t impressed with the Too Faced lippy at first but after a few more tries we have become inseparable. This has literally been my go-to lip product for the past month, and I’m obsessed with it. I deff. want to try more of these Too Faced Lipsticks!

Foundation Routine ♥ Application, Contour, & Highlight

2 Comments

Hey Loves!

My foundation routine is something that has been asked about continuously even before I had a youtube channel or a blog. Now it is asked about even more because my friends and family know I am constantly trying out new foundations and products.

For a while I was set on the Revlon Colorstay Foundation and was loving every single bit of it! It was for sure my holy grail foundation, especially during the hot summer days! Once the summer was over, my skin did a major 180 change and went from being super oily to super dry. I still get oily from time to time on my T-Zone but for the most part if I don’t moisturize you will deff. know! Since my skin had changed so drastically the foundations that I was using were not working well. They looked extremely matte and cakey. No one likes cake face so something had to change.

I ended up picking up the Neutrogena Healthy Skin and for a while that was working perfectly! I was using this everyday in combination with my Bare Minerals Matte Foundation and it was the perfect combo.

Once I began interning for Sonia Kashuk I was able to try a few of her products. One of those products was her Perfecting Luminous Foundation. Let me tell you… This has legitimately been my obsession ever since! It leaves my skin glowing! It’s the perfect amount of coverage, full coverage of course, but my skin still peeks through for a sort of natural finish. I honestly have been recommending this foundation to every one I know because I cannot get enough of it!

I decided to film my Foundation Routine so you guys are able to see how the foundation applies and also so you can all see how I contour and highlight as well. I get a ton of questions always asking me what products I use for my face, not including eyeshadows and lipsticks.

So alas, here is my foundation routine! I hope you guys enjoy it & if you find this helpful please like, comment, subscribe to my channel, and of course share with your friends! love you ♥
