Burgundy Makeup Look | Beauty Mix Week 3

September 22, 2017September 22, 20176 Comments

Happy first day of FALL everyone! What a perfect time to share a burgundy makeup look! It is WEEK 3 of my collab with Jasmine, Ashleigh and Lily.

If you missed last week’s look, check it out here: Brown Tones Makeup Look

So, I know I usually have a video to go along with my looks, but long story short, I filmed a video last weekend and I HATED it- I used a color that was super splotchy and it ruined the whole look. Photos turned out okay, but I just wasn’t happy with the whole look for this week’s post. I will share a photo anyway, so below is the first look I created for this post. In some photos it was also way more red than I wanted it to be. I did, however, love the deep red lip I had! I used Bichette from Colourpop and used Jouer lip topper in Skinny Dip.

Beauty Mix | Brown Tones – Week 2

September 15, 2017September 19, 20175 Comments

Welcome to week 2 of the Beauty Mix Series in collaboration with Ashleigh, Jasmine & Lily. This week’s makeup look is all about “Brown Tones”. If you missed last week’s look, you can view it here.

I used a few new products in this week’s look that I haven’t used before. I tried out the Morphe Brushes Beauty Sponge, which I loved! I also tried out the Wunderbrow gel that I’ve been hearing everyone rave about. It took me a bit to do my brows, and I thought I loved it, but watch the video and see my thoughts! You can see in the video how long it took (thankfully it’s sped up). I also tried out the Vegas Nay eyelashes in the style Easy Elegance. All of the products I used will be listed below, and included in my YouTube video as well.

Let me know if you like the videos, or if you’d rather just read the post. I’d love to keep filming the looks, but only if you’re interested in watching them! Go subscribe and like the video for more looks! Continue reading →

Weekly Pamper Night Routine with Suave Body Wash

September 6, 2017September 6, 201718 Comments

My favorite night of the week is pamper night! There’s nothing better than feeling relaxed & refreshed! I try to do this at least once a week to unwind, relax and gather myself! Once a month I do a little extra pampering like painting my nails and doing a hair mask, but today, I figured I would share my weekly, at-home pamper routine with you all!

Set the Mood

I start my pamper night by lighting some candles. I try to avoid any other lights if possible and just enjoy the candlelight. There’s just something so relaxing and calming about the flickering of a candle’s flames. I then drown out the background noise with some calming music, an audio book, or even Netflix on my Ipad. I also grab a glass of my favorite wine.

The New Jaclyn Hill x Morphe Palette | Swatches & Review

August 31, 2017August 30, 201710 Comments

Morning lovelies! I am so excited to share with you Jaclyn Hill’s new eyeshadow palette in collaboration with Morphe Brushes! I have been watching Jaclyn Hill on YouTube for so many years and she has influenced a lot of things in my life, such as beauty products, hair, and fashion. She was probably one of the first people I watched on YouTube, which lead me to watching and following so many others like her.

Jaclyn’s palette has sold out for the 3rd time but looks like they will be restocking again soon. You can put your email address in on their website here and they will notify you when the restock date is set.

Today I want to share with you some swatches from this beautiful palette, as well as my thoughts on each color! So, let’s get started!

The Palette Packaging

First, and foremost, let’s talk about the packaging. I did receive my palette in a well packaged box, inside a large cardboard box. The palette was padded inside a thin box/case, and then covered in bubble wrap inside the cardboard box that was sent. I was so disappointed when I opened my palette to see that the corner was dented- like someone had dropped it prior to packing it up in the box. I only know it was damaged prior to packaging because the thin box/case it came in was not dented like the palette was. Thankfully, when I opened the palette, the colors were all still intact. I LOVE that the palette is WHITE vs. the standard Morphe black palettes, however, I wish it was more of a plastic material rather than cardboard-like. I’m sure they wanted to go with something a bit less expensive since they are using higher quality shadows in this palette. Also inside the palette came a list of the shadow colors, as pictured below.

Milk Makeup Foundation and Dab + Blend Applicator Review | Influenster VoxBox

August 18, 2017August 18, 20178 Comments

I received the Milk Makeup Blur Liquid Matte Foundation ($40 value) and the Dab + Blend Applicator ($14 value) from Influenster recently and have been testing it out! Today I am sharing my thoughts and review, as well as some photos of the products!

Disclaimer**I received this product free from Influenster for testing purposes. All opinions are my own.

At first, I thought the color I chose was way off, but after trying it on the skin, it was pretty darn perfect! Funny how different makeup looks on skin than in packaging.

I received the shade light and golden light.

Hourglass VoxBox from Influenster | Lipstick Review

July 26, 2017August 4, 20177 Comments

I am so excited to share that I received another VoxBox from Influenster for testing purposes. (My opinions in this post are my own.) This time, I received the Hourglass VoxBox. Inside the box came the Hourglass Confession Ultra slim high-intensity refillable lipstick in the shade “I Lust For – Peachy Beige“!

I have never tried Hourglass’ lip products, so I was super excited to try this out! First off, let’s start with the packaging. It is super slim, but heavy – it’s a metal type casing that makes it look very luxurious and expensive. The inner part of the lipstick is the part that is refillable. I’ve never seen a lipstick like this before, so I was very intrigued when I heard it was refillable.
