Foundation Week | 7 Days of Foundation

4 / 10 / 187 / 18 / 18
Hello my bondbeautys, Its so good to be back writing on the blog. Todays post is a very special one, because I’m going to go through and share my foundation week foundation finds. So if you don’t know what foundation week is, I’ll tell you. For seven days I try a new foundation and make a 1st impression video sharing (in detail) how it wore and my thoughts. So I thought I would pair that series up with my blog so I can show you more pictures and tell you my thoughts after I have worn the foundations for weeks now.  

 ($36.00) So lets start with Day 1 of Foundation week, We are talking about the Urban Decay One & Done Foundation. I wear the shade Medium and I find it is a great match for me (I’m a Mac NC35). Their shade range is not good at all, but since its marketed as a light coverage the thought is that lots of different shades will still be able to pull it off even if the shade is slightly off. They only have 6 shades in total.

*At the very bottom of the post I will include foundation shade matches for me so that if you are trying to compare, you can.

 

I love this foundation because it has light to light/med coverage. Its so easy to blend and looks amazing with either both a sponge or a brush. So no matter what your preferred method to apply is, it will look amazing. I love this foundation for everyday bases, or light foundation days. It gives a natural finish and looks great on my dry skin all day long. I was really impressed how a light coverage foundation could last on my skin all day, but apparently with this foundation it can. Below are some swatches of this foundation swatched next to some of my other foundation matches.

(L-> R) Urban Decay One & Done Medium, Fit Me Matte 220, Dermacol 218,Wet N Wild photo focus Golden Beige, Covergirl Healthy Elixir Nude Beige, NARS Natural Radiant M3.5

Day 2- L.A. Girl Pro Coverage HD Foundation.

This Foundation is seriously such a beautiful buildable full coverage foundation. It has a shade range of 16 shades, which includes a white shade. It retails for $8.99. For being a drugstore foundation this is actually really nice selection. I wear the shade Nude Beige. This foundation has a very natural luminous finish to it, and I personally find it to be patchy with a sponge. I would definitely say go with a brush with this foundation. I personally love a luminous primer underneath so the Becca Priming Filter, or the Physicians Formula Spotlight Primer are good ones.

Day 3 It Cosmetics CC Cream Medium  Tan. This is more like a medium coverage foundation, that can build up to full coverage. (depending on what you consider to be full coverage) Again like the Urban Decay One & Done this one doesn’t have a good shade selection; it has 7 shades. It retails for $38.00 and has 1.08 fl oz. I really do love this one, again its perfect for everyday, for teens, or moms basically anyone! Its a beautiful natural luminous finish that wears all day. Great on dry skin but also can be set with a good powder for those with oily skin.

Day 4, is Catrice HD Liquid Coverage Foundation 030 Sand Beige. This is by far the most disappointing foundation, but yet the best foundation all in one. It has full coverage, a very natural matte finish, and it last all day long. But, it only has 3 shades, 3! What?! That is just so crazy, I went with the shade 030 because it had the right undertone. I definitely needed to darken it with a mixer, so I used the Catrice Prime Fine Makeup Transformation Drops Darkening. I really wish they would come out with more shades because it seriously looks like skin. I didn’t need to set it because it set on its own and wouldn’t transfer. This is a good matte foundation to try if you have dry skin. For now this is a great mixing foundation, plus whenever you set it with a spray woah looks beautiful!

(L-> R)Catrice HD Liquid Coverage 030 Sand Beige, Fit Me Matte 220, Dermacol 218,Wet N Wild photo focus Golden Beige, Covergirl Healthy Elixir Nude Beige, NARS Natural Radiant M3.5

Day 5, Nars Natural Radian Longwear Foundation M3.5 Vanuatu $49.00. So far this one is the most expensive, but also the one with the biggest shade selection with 33 different shades. Honestly this one is so gorgeous on the skin. I would definitely repurchase this one. Just because I was able to find a very accurate shade and it looks flawless on the skin. It also wore amazing and its the foundation that I got the most compliments on. Every time I wear this foundation my skin looks so healthy and truly radiant. 

(L-> R) Urban Decay One & Done Medium, Fit Me Matte 220, Dermacol 218,Wet N Wild photo focus Golden Beige, Covergirl Healthy Elixir Nude Beige, NARS Natural Radiant M3.5

Day 6, Physicians Formula  The healthy foundation M3 $12.99. Comes in 12 shades. The shade I tried in the video did not match me M3 is definitely my match, if you are wondering. I honestly didn’t like how this foundation looked on my skin. It looked a tiny bit powdery and you could tell I was wearing makeup. If you have dry skin using a hydrating primer & a setting spray would help. I think this one is all about preference. Plus on my skin it didn’t last very long. I do not have swatches for this one but M3 is my match for sure.

Day 7, Flower Beauty Light Illusion Foundation M3 Classic Tan ($13.99). This foundation comes in 12 colors. Let me tell you by far this is my favorite foundation for two reasons: First, this is such an affordable foundation. Second, this is literally the best color match I have ever found for my skin. Not only that but this foundation looks beautiful, not just beautiful, stunning in natural light (Outside or inside), Studio Lights and in Flash! I just am so amazed with this foundation.  It has a radiant dewy finish, but not to dewy in the oily way. I set this lightly and it remains look beautiful ALL DAY LONG! For a drugstore foundation, the lasting power of this one has just absolutely amazed me. In other words GO GET THIS FOUNDATION RIGHT NOW!

Asavea Vibrating Flat Iron

1 / 29 / 187 / 18 / 18

IMG_9369
Hello my Bondbeautys,

It has been so long since I have posted and so much has happened that I want to share. I guess that for a later post though. Today lets get down to business with a VIBRATING Flat Iron. I know what your thinking, the products they come out with now a days are crazy! Well this one sounds funky ,but it is absolutely genius! It actually works guys, so Im bringing it to my blog and I am also doing a giveaway.

I have tried this first hand and I love it to straighten or curl my hair. (I will be showing you a tutorial at the end of how to do both)

2

 

This is the Asavea Vibe Vibrating Flat Iron Buy it Here.

*Not an affiliate Link

PROS:

  • Heats up in 60 sec
  • Vibration options which decreases the FRIZZ (I love this for when I straighten my hair)
  • Temp 325-450
  • Does not pull on my hair! AT ALL
  • Ceramic Flat Iron- Gives you consistent temperature
  • Swivel Cord So when Curling It doesn’t get tangled in your hair
  • Automatic shut off after 60 min
  • Fiberglass technology helps retain moisture to your hair
  • Affordable (is on sale right now for $49.99)
  • You can turn the vibration mode on or off
  • When vibration mode is on, it only vibrates when clamped shut!

IMG_9373

CONS:

  • NONE seriously It works so well I cant think of

4

As I have been trying this for the past couple weeks I actually prefer the Vibrating mode to be on when Im straightening my hair. The reason why is because it completely eliminates frizz and smooths my hair to the point that It even looks like I put anti frizz product in it when I didn’t.  Whenever I curl my hair I don’t use the vibrating mode.

5So I will be showing you how I straighten and Curl my hair in the video below. I honestly do think that this flat iron is amazing and worth a try. I recommend it 100%!

I have another surprise for you first, I’m doing a giveaway! Asavea was so kind to host a giveaway , absolutely free, all you need to do to enter is click here .

Its open until Feb 11, 2018 I will be announcing the winner in the description box of my video below. I will also be emailing you personally so make sure to check your spam folders!!

Dermacol Makeup Cover Foundation| Worlds Best Foundation?

7 / 15 / 17

IMG_8637

Hello my Bondbeautys,

Its a bran new day and we are doing #foundationweek. Basically it is where I do A new foundation review/first impressions post every day or 7 days. I started this on my Youtube channel and really wanted to do some blog posts to go along. Plus I know you would really enjoy some good written details.

 

Today I wanted to share this FULL FULL COVERAGE FOUNDATION. The Dermacol Makeup Cover Foundation*. This is seriously the Worlds most full coverage foundation, I’m not exaggerating. My Perfect shade match is Dermacol 221, If you want to see what shades of foundations match me well then look in the description box of the Video below.

 

*I do receive compensation for clicking my link, if you do not want to click on my link then feel free to google Dermacol Foundation.

PicMonkey Image-2

So why is this foundation the Worlds Most? It covers everything! To show you I went through and completely marked up my face with a red marker. Why Red? well its more realistic because often times acne & imperfections are red. I know its genius! This foundation smoothed over everything so easy, I still can’t believe it. The best part is that you only need a pea size amount for you entire face. Less is more with this one.

IMG_8636

Lets talk Pros & Cons:
PROS

  • Use thin Layers & covers Everything
  • Long Wearing
  • smooths over imperfections and leaves a dewy/natural finish on the skin (Healthy Glow)
  • Applies Good with Brush Or Sponge (I personally love using a Brush)
  • Perfect for Pictures or an event
  • If you want to wear it for everyday you can mix it in with your moisturizer
  • DOES NOT OXIDIZE
  • affordable foundation

CONS

  • Feels A little Thick on the Skin

I think this is a good foundation for everyone to have. If you have dry skin or Oily skin I think you can wear this. If you have Oily skin make sure to powder with a mattifying powder or use a mattifying primer. Now this is why I think everyone should have this, even if you do not use this all the time. This is a great foundation to use to spot conceal spots around your face. So if you need more coverage on your forehead apply your regular foundation all over and only apply this on the area on your forehead you need more coverage. I give you guys my stamp of approval and the best part is how affordable it is. See it Here.

If you want to see how this foundation wears through out the day, I did do a full First impressions video where I take you with me along my day so you can see for yourself how it Wears.

So I hope you enjoyed my review I will be back tomorrow to share another blog post. If you want to see how well it covers see the video below!

Lipsense Is it REALLY ALL its hyped up to be?

6 / 15 / 176 / 15 / 17

 

IMG_8123

Hello my Bondbeautys,

Today I’m posting about a product that really peeked my interest through Facebook & instagram! Lets cut to the chase , we are talking about Lipsense I know you all have heard about this. You have probably been invited to a lipsense party at one point. Its suppose to be this magical lip color that lasts on your lips all day long. It is suppose to be immovable so immovable that if you rub your fingers against your lips nothing will come off!

Well today we are going to talk about if its true, how long it lasts & at the end I will even show you in a video!

18765592_1195085333953304_7074294183570993975_n

I have the starter kit (as shown above) it comes with a lip color (Bella shown), Moisturizing Gloss, & Oops remover. I received mine from Rachel Powers who did a fabulous job at packaging everything nicely and shipping it out to me quickly. I received it about 3 days after I ordered it!

IMG_8121

Lets start with what the company claims shall we…

  • Color Lasts anywhere from 4-18 hrs
  • Waterproof
  • doesn’t kiss off,smudge off, rub off or budge off
  • doesn’t dry out your lips, instead it restore moisture to your lips
  • Thinner than water & immediately evaporates on the skin
  • 47 different shades & multiple finishes

So with this in mind I tested this out several times and did a full wear test with check ups in the video below.

My conclusion is: This is truly amazing! I love it so much. It really does do everything it claims, which is rare to actually find a product that does that. This is my go to date night lip color because it does not rub off or kiss off! It lasts through eating and never leaves a lip print on a glass. I especially love the Moisturizing Gloss it does a really good job of sticking to the lips but not making your lips feel sticky. Also even when the gloss does come off I noticed my lips still felt moisturized and healthy.

IMG_8139

If you have been curious or wanting to try Lipsense I definitely think you should! I love it so much I’m going to go back and get a couple of different colors. The only Con I found is that you have to go through a distributer. I went through Rachel Powers who is such a sweet amazing lady. She packaged everything beautifully even included a tips & tricks page!  Just contact her and order some! Its so easy and YES she ships it right to your home! click  to go straight to her Facebook.

Anyways thats enough chatter see my video review & wear test below!

Have you tried lipsense? If so whats your favorite color? if not what color would you get if you did ?

Hello my Bondbeautys,

Im so excited to be doing the Ultimate Wet N Wild New Releases Post! I have done a first impressions & a full review on all the new products I got at the beginning of January. Wet N Wild is really stepping up their game this year. None of the products I have tried so far from them are duds! So I’m going to keep it short and simple and let the videos do the talking enjoy!

 

 

 

IMG_20170103_164543_232

First I have a full first impressions where I take you throughout the day and see how all these products wear.

New Products:

  • Cushion Contour $5.99
  • Cushion Highlight $5.99
  • Megaglo Highlight $4.99
  • Contour Stick $3.99
  • Blush Stick $3.99
  • Photo Focus Foundation $5.99

After Using these products for almost a month and really trying them in all different ways I have a full review on the Foundation..

Overall the Foundation is my personal favorite! I think it looks beautiful on camera, in pictures & in person. As it warms up to the skin it becomes almost skin like. It looks so natural and beautiful. Also it is a High Medium Coverage when applied with a brush & it is perfect for my needs.

1-2 (1)This is one of my Recent Editorial Style Instagram Pics where I’m wearing the Foundation. Also it matches perfectly with my undertone.

  • WetNWild Photo Focus Foundation Golden Beige (Matches Fit Me Matte & poreless 220)

 

 

As far as the other products I tried the cushion products are amazing. I love how they dry down completely so I don’t need to set it. It also lasted longer than any of the other contour / highlight products I have tried from wet n wild. IMG_20170107_164856_288

I also love the undertone of their contour shades, the cushion & stick. They are a perfect natural shade that isn’t too warm or too cool. I feel like these are the most universal shades. Plus the cushions last me 12 hrs (when applied with a brush)

 

WetnWild is one of the most affordable brands at the drugstore; and for them to come out this year with some amazing products is fantastic. I feel like they came out swinging!

AsaVea Hair Straightening Brush Review

1 / 5 / 171 / 5 / 17

thumb

Hello my Bondbeautys,

Its been a long time since I have done a post. With that said one of my new years resolution is to be more consistent in my blog & youtube. I really want to do more this year and I hope you guys are as excited as I am for this new year! So Im starting out this year right with a giveaway! With that said you will have to wait till  the end to learn more about that. Today I wanted to tell you my thoughts and experience with the AsaVea Hair Straightening Brush*. I was sent this brush a couple weeks ago to try out and I have been so impressed with it that I decided to do a whole blog post about it.

4-review-copy

Lets talk about what the company claims really quickly (Inserted exactly from the website*) Advanced MCH ceramic heat technology delivers a consistent optimum temperature
Suitable for a variety of hair types with seven temperature levelsfrom 330˚F to 450˚F
Give you smooth, straight, frizz-free hair in half the time it takes to use a flat iron.

 

PROS:

  • Heats up & Cools Down Quickly
  • Because of the Bristles it creates a barrier between you and the flat iron part to help prevent burning; although the bristle still get hot they are not as hot as the iron plate underneath.
  • Decreases frizz when straightening because of the brush & iron combo. (although for my hair it definitely illuminates some of the frizz but not all because of how frizzy & damaged my hair truely is)
  • Temperature is suitable to fit all hair types. I like to have it at 410
  • Straightens & styles my hair without leaving it flat. It straightens it & gives it volume.
  • Love how it styles BANGS does an amazing job & makes it easier. (see video below for small demo)
  • Minimizes damage because I only pull it through my hair 2 times!

CONS:

  • Takes the same amount of time for me to straighten my hair. (But for others with super super curly hair & non manageable hair it can minimize your hair straightening time if you use this first)
  • If you have really tangly or damaged hair you need to use a brush first or it will rip your hair out. Its not soft enough to use this to get tangles out!
  • For some the Price will be a CON it retails for $54.94* ; But with that said to get a really nice straightener it costs about the same or even less than a CHI

9-review

So with that said lets talk about some Tips & Tricks to making this the most affective.

  1. I comb my hair through before using this
  2. I divide it into 1inch sections
  3. I pull my hair straight (still gently) while I pull the comb through
  4. Start at the very roots & pull through slowly
  5. DO NOT STOP Always keep moving to prevent any burning or damage
  6. AT the very end curl the ends by turning your wrist in or out depending on what look you are going for
  7. USE a Hair oil/elixer * or Spray*to get rid of all frizz .
  8. At the Crown I Will divide the section I would usually tease and put Comb at the base & pull backwards (Making a n motion)to give it extra volume. (See video same motion as I do with my bangs)

Here is how my hair turned out: Before & After (see video below)

2-review5-review

I was a skeptic but now I have converted to the Straightening brush way haha. I really do enjoy using it and because I don’t get burned as easily I will definitely use this more than my straightener. Even though I do not have really curly kinky hair I have seen it used on that hair type and it works wonders as well. So with all that said in my opinion I think it will work on all hair types & it is worth the buy.

Here is my full review , where I show the Straightening Brush & I show you a full demo of me using it!

New York Biology Lash & Brow Serum Review

8 / 8 / 16


cover

Hello my Bondbeautys,

Last week I talked about the New York Biology Eye Gel. Today I wanted to talk about The New York Biology Lash & Brow Serum. I have been trying this out for about a month now. I want to tell you guys about this product because I am very surprised and impressed! Last month I was really into waterproof mascara, which dried my lashes and broke most of them off. As you guys probably already know waterproof mascara isn’t the best thing to use when you want your natural lashes to be long & beautiful.

product

So lets talk about what the claims are:

  • Irritation- free & Allergy- free
  • Add Volume
  • Lengthen
  • Grow faster
  • Darken Lashes or brows
  • thickens brows

What does it really do? (after 30 days of use)

  • Helps your lashes grow faster
  • Lengthens
  • thicken brows
  • brows hairs grow

Pros?

  • Cruelty free
  • alcohol, paraben, & chemical free
  • Great for sensitive eyes or contact wearers because it doesn’t irritate at all

Cons?

  • It does not have a stopper so it if it tips when its open the product will spill out

Does it work? Yes , because of the nutrients and vitamins it contains it really helps your lashes & eyebrows grow faster than they would by themselves. Like any product it takes time so that is what I noticed after 30 days. This is a product for someone who is patient because it isn’t going to make your lashes really long and voluminous after one use.

Here are my results after 30 days.

before & after

I will continue to use this and update you in another month to see how much volume & length I have after two months.

Want to try this yourself? Get it HERE

*I am not paid or sponsored I was sent this product for free but I always give my honest review & truly enjoy this product.

Here is my full review video for you to see for your self the difference in my brows & lashes

I hope this was helpful for you! If you like my blog make sure to email subscribe so that you can get my blog posts sent straight to your email!!

New York Biology Anti Aging Eye Gel Review

8 / 2 / 168 / 3 / 16

IMG_8196

Hello my Bondbeautys,

Today Im doing a review on the New York Biology Eye Gel. Im going to be talking about pros, cons, price, where to buy & does it actually work. (I was sent this product for free to review but I always give my 100% honest opinion)

(Review Video Below)

So what does the company claim exactly?

  • New York Biology Eye Gel has the Power to Aggressively Fight Aging Like No Other in Its Class!

This Eye Cream Deeply Nourishes and Hydrates Your Skin with its Powerhouse of Nutrients.Suitable for any age and skin tone, and for both men and women.

Some of the Benefits Include:

– Reduces the appearance of puffiness and fine lines around the eyes.

– Has the power to transform your look and boost your confidence.

– Helps rebuild cells, firms skin and repair wrinkles without dermabrasion or other expensive treatments.

– Hydrates and Firms your skin leaving a youthful looking appearance.

Price? $25.50

Where to buy? Amazon Prime Here

Does it work? Yes , does reduce wrinkles and fine lines that are caused by lack of hydration in that area. I use to have wrinkles and fine lines under my eyes as well as on my forehead. I noticed a big difference after using this for about 30 days.(see pics below)

Before:

 

 

666fix line

(these are all unedited photos)

After:

afterIMG_9031

 

 

Pros & Cons:

  • Pro#1 Hydrates Skin
  • Pro #2Reduces Puffiness (gives a cooling effect feels nice)
  • Pro#3 absorbs into skin rather than sitting ontop
  • Pro #4 Gel like formula is neither stick, greasy or oily
  • Pro#5 doesn’t effect the wear time of your makeup
  • Pro#6 can be used day or night, out in the sun or under makeup
  • Pro #7 Packaging  makes it possible to really measure and control how much product your pump out
  • Pro #8 you only need a pea size and it is enough for both eyes

How to apply?

* You can apply this morning or night or both!

  1. I wash my face
  2. I pump a pea size into my hand and dab it around the under eye area, my eye lid, & in the middle of my eyes. Basically all around the eyes. (this can also be applied on the face if you so choose)
  3. Then I continue and apply my day moisturizer & makeup

IMG_9087

I am so impressed with this New York Biology Eye Gel. I feel Like often times we apply so many serums & moisturizers to our face but skip our eyes. We do this for two main reasons: First, because we don’t want our eyelids to get oily(so that our eyeshadow lasts) & second we do not want our eyeshadow or concealer to crease. The great thing about this is that it will absorb into your skin and it won’t leave any tackiness. * If your skin feels tacky or sticky after using this then you applied way to much! Here is my full review video, which includes before & after .

I have been so into skin care lately, Im starting to realize the big benefits you get from taking care of your skin. I hope this was helpful and taught you a little bit about a difference that a skin care product can do for you! Let me know your thoughts have you tried this? if not what eye cream do you use?

Is it worth the buy? Yes I think so , I really did notice a difference right away. I felt like it was actually doing something for my hair. It was nourishing & making it healthier. Organic shampoo & conditioners are not easy to find and this one is a great option that you can find almost anywhere.

Let me know what you like from Pura d’or? Whats your favorite hair or skin care product? Comment down bellow lets get a conversation going!!

Hello my Bondbeautys,

I am so excited to share with you some of my favorite hair, skin & makeup products for this past month. I love doing these kinds of posts because then you have a chance to see products that have truly not only worked for me but that I am personally in love with. (video below to see all products)

  • Pura d’ or Hairless prevention therapy shampoo & healing conditioner  (find at target cvs Rite Aid) This shampoo & Conditioner are organic which means Chemical Free,Paragon free, sulfate free & Gluten free. They are very healthy for your hair. Your hair will not only look healthier & shinier but also feel like it.
  • Pura d’or Argan Oil I have dry to normal skin. Sometimes my foundation looks cakey on certain parts of my face. It  looks like makeup sits on top of my skin rather than blending into my skin. This makes my makeup look un natural . To fix this I add this oil to my foundation (two drops) or just to my face before foundation. It really gives me a natural looking flawless face. The makeup sits so nicely onto of it and helps it really blend into my skin.
  • Dauphines of New York Headband : This headband is perfect for this summer time. Its so hot in Arizona and its nice to keep your hair out of your face. So this headband is useful and cute all at the same time! I used for the 4th of July and loved it!
    (Find  it at Anthropologie)
  • Yuer er Gong Zhu Eyelashes : Love these lashes they are glam but look natural all in one. I love these for dates or even everyday. ( I have a giveaway going on so make sure to check out that video too down below. Im giving away these lashes!)
  • Ittse Eyeshadow Golden Gate  : I am so obsessed with this eyeshadow , this is the eyeshadow I used in multiple of my 100 days of makeup pictures. (over on my Instagram)

  • Fit Me Matte & Poreless Foundation 220 This foundation is such a great matte foundation. Even with my dry skin it still looks great! I also love to mix the Argan Oils in with this particular foundation. It turns this matte foundation into a natural finish foundation, that just looks fresh and perfect.
  • Wet N Wild Brushes: Great affordable brushes , super soft and do not shed.
  • Wet n Wild To reflect Shimmer Palette Boozy Brunch: My favorite Highlight of the moment. Such an unexpected find!
  • Wet n Wild Mega goo contouring Palette Dulce de Leche: I have been using and abusing this contour palette. I love the contouring shade in here it is a neutral which makes it more wearable and it looks beautiful.
  • Amazon Brush Egg : This is such an amazing find. It helps clean your brushes just as good as the brush cleaning mats except it is 1/10th of the price. Only 2 bucks , such a steal!
  • Wet n Wild Color Icon Blush Apri-cot in the Middle: This is a perfect natural blush that goes with any makeup look. So it is perfect for everyday or for special occasions. The reason I like this so much is because it doesn’t take away from your look. Its a no brainer blush.
  • Bella Pierre Cosmetic Mineral Blush Desert Rose This blush is a beautiful light pink. Another blush that goes with any look but especially blue looks! I love it with a blue smokey eye . (shown in the picture below)

day 13

  • Be a Bombshell Smooth Criminal Powder: Since I have dry skin I have to be so careful when choosing a powder. I can easily turn into a cakey mess. So I have been loving this powder to set my under eye concealer! It smooths the area out with out drying it out.
  • Wet n Wild Highlighting Pen Posing Nude & A Happy Medium: These pens are so great for highlighting. They are also great for adding to other concealers. Specially hard to work with concealers tend to work better with this concealer.
  • LA girl Pro Concealer Natural: This concealer is such a great alternative to the MAC Pro long wear concealer. It is not as thick and full coverage but it is definitely so good! I use it for under the eye and it is perfect. I also highlight with it around the face.
  • Sally Hansen Gel Shine 3D Top Coat: Are you looking for a super shiny top coat that makes it look like you came from the salon? Well I finally found a incredible top coat at the drugstore! This one is so great , it makes my nail polish last longer & looks shinier than any other top coat! Love, Love , Love!
  • ELF Acne Fighting Gel: This gel really surprised me. It didn’t magically make my acne go away but it helps my blemishes get smaller and start to go away. Its amazing and I am so surprised. I will wash my face before bed and apply it after. Then in the morning my blemishes will be ten times smaller and look a lot better than the day before. This is my secret weapon to beautiful looking skin.
  • NYC Lip liner Bare:  Perfect lip liner to pair up with your nude lips!
  • Wet n Wild Velvet Matte Lipcolor Looking for Truffle: Such a velvety soft matte lip color! So amazing and this shade is a cooler nude and I love it. So in style right now!
  • NYX Butter Gloss Eclair: These butter glosses are just that buttery! This color looks so great topped over light pink type of nude lipsticks. (shown below)

  • NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream Stockholm: This has been a long time favorite. To me this is the perfect matte nude lip color. Its so affordable as well. If you struggle to find the perfect nude shade try this one out!
  • LA Colors High Shine Butter Gloss Snuggle: This is a beautiful nude, almost gold shimmery gloss. The formula is very slick and soft without being sticky. The color is perfect to add to the lower lip of your nude lips! (great lipstick topper) I especially have been loving it over a matte cool or grey nude lip. I add it right to the center of my bottom lip and blend! (shown below)
