Makeup Favorites | What I'm Currently Loving

Hi lovely reader! How are you today? Last month I tried some new makeup products and I also used up one of my other favorite products. So I thought I would share these products with you in a little haul styled post. Enjoy!

I got this from Nordstrom Rack at the beginning of last month for something ridiculous like $12?!? The price was unbeatable so I had to get it. It's the "Too Faced Brow Envy Kit". This particular packaging isn't available anymore but I'm pretty sure the current kit is basically the same thing. It contains a setting wax, highlighter, and two shades depending on if you're blonde or brunette. There are also a pair of tweezers, a brush, and a shaping tool. They include stencils too, which I personally do not use. I fill in my brows with the brunette shade and it compliments my skin and hair color well. I'm extremely happy with the quality of the kit and would definitely recommend it if you can get it for the price I did!

This next product was one of my first higher end makeup products, ahh the memories! It is the "Smashbox Bronze Lights Skin Perfecting Bronzer" now I will say this is the one and only type of bronzer I have ever used, so I am a bit biased, but I really love this product! The previous pot I had was much smaller but it lasted forever, so I can't imagine how long this one will last. The shade I use is Suntan Matte. My skin is fairly light, especially in the winter so I have found that this shade works perfect! It costs $30 which can seem like a lot, but like I said, it lasts a long time so I think it is worth it.

I mentioned this mascara in a previous post but I decided to mention it again because I still am obsessed with how it makes my lashes look! The "CoverGirl Bombshell Curvaceous by Lashblast" is amazing! It is double ended the one for length and the other for volume. I am not kidding when I say that it makes you look like you are wearing false lashes. The cost is great and the quality is nice too. Love it!

Finally, is a new primer I purchased last week, it is the "e.l.f. Studio Eye Primer & Liner Sealer". As you may have seen in previous makeup posts, I love e.l.f.! It's super cheap and the quality is great. The primer has been working well, I can put it on in the morning and then go to take it off at night and not have any creasing issues. I haven't tried the eyeliner sealer yet. It costs $3 and lasts all day!

What makeup products are you currently loving? Have you used any of these products before? Xx

Pink

Hey lovely reader hope you are feeling good! Lately I've been noticing that my recent purchases are pink! I like pink (as long as it's a light shade) so I thought maybe you would too and decided to take some snaps. 

First, my friend gave me this. I thought it was so cute. It's from The Body Shop and is a Japanese Cherry Blossom scent. It came with a shower gel, lotion, and loofa. 

The next thing I picked up in the store last week. It's by elf and is a pink eyeshadow palette. Lately I've seen a lot of beauty gurus going for the pink eye shadows, so I'm joining the trend! 

Finally I switched my iPad case to this cute one that I found online. Of course I love the shade, simple and sweet. 

Do you have an abundance of pink items as well? Xx

Mini Makeup Haul

Hello everyone! Can you believe that it is New Years Eve? I definitely cannot! 

A great time to buy makeup is right after the holidays, when stores are getting rid of all the sets and themed cosmetics, but just because it came in festive packaging doesn't mean it can't be used year round. This means sales, discounts, and clearances are always checked out by me before I leave the shop! I bought a few things recently and thought I'd share them with you.

I absolutely love this! I have been using it all week. The color is gorgeous, it appears more auburn than brown.

I just bought this today so I haven't actually tried it on, but the color is really pretty. I have been looking for a darker lip color to try for the winter and this one seems perfect.

Usually I wait to buy things until I have read reviews on them but this seemed nice so I picked it up. Lately I have been into creating full lower lashes so hopefully this does the trick.

As far as I'm concerned, you can never go wrong with a little elf! I have used this as a highlighter on my cheekbones and it is just the right amount of shimmer. You don't look like a disco ball just like you have a natural glow

Have you tried any of these products? What did you think of them? Enjoy what's left of 2013 and I'll be back in the new year!

Elf

I love drugstore makeup for two reasons, it's affordable and the quality can be just as good as the high end makeup brands. Elf is one of those brands. It is super affordable and the quality of their products is great! I'm going to show the elf products that I own and love, starting with brushes and then going on to products for eyes, lips, face, and nails!
