Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Essence What the Fake Mascara. Since this brand has such a good price point I actually got a few mascaras to try from them, this one I like but not as much as the previous one ( I Love Extreme Mascara). This one I would say is pretty decent for the price (abt $5 USD) but not my favorite for winter. I say that because I personally like to have a thicker longer fuller mascara in the winter, but a lighter more natural one in the summer.  This for me falls into the latter, it looks nice but is a little light for me in the winter for the look I want to have. The primer from essence helps but I would still probably not use this in the cooler seasons. That being said it applies great and I have no issues with the application or the wear of it, it goes on well and stays put. It also isn't to clumpy. So I would still for sure recommend it for the price, but if you are like me I would try it in the warmer months.  

Hey guys!! So this one was a kinda on a whim purchase for me, I was looking around ultas website and new I wanted a foundation for the summer and new I like Urban Decay so I picked this up. It looked pretty and I like almost everything I have ever gotten from UD so I was like let's try it out. I really really like this, it is a little more full coverage than I expected but honestly I don't mind because it is still super light weight and a little goes a long way. My favorite way to apply when I want it thinner is with my damp beauty blender, if I want fuller coverage I use my hands to apply. This stays put really well and blends out beautifully, I haven't had any patchy spots or areas it built up at all. This creates a really good base for my powder products and doesn't budge (sometimes I find adding pressed powder can make certain types of foundation kinda cover less). This is not a matte finish but adding powder can make it more matte if you prefer that, I would say th...

Hey guys so since summer is here I am for sure using sunscreen if I go outside much. (Yes I know I should always use it but I don't) This smells amazing (like vanilla) and does a really good job, I have not had sunburn once with this. I have been using it for my face because I do not like using spray on my face.  I will say I don't think it would do well with makeup, like putting it on then makeup, because it is super greasy and stays fairly greasy once applied. So if that bother's you this may not be for you, as long as I am not wearing makeup though I do not really mind much so it is not a big deal to me. I personally really do like this sunscreen :)

Hey guys!! So as I was looking through Target for a gift for a friend the clearance bin caught my eye and I found this gem. I like Rimmel London so I thought, why not give it a try. It was on sale after all! First off, look at this, it is adorable and I love the packaging and design. Secondly, this is the perfect subtle glow, it isn't tooooo dark but it is easily buildable to get the perfect look for you. I can use a swipe of this for a little glow or I can add more when I use self tanner to balance out my whole look. I am loving this and even used it over the weekend instead of reaching for my fav Hula bronzer!! I NEVER do that on the weekends!!! I would absolutely recommend this! It lasts and it is just great!! ^_^

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the blush and highlighter from the Zoella Brunch Date Collection from Colourpop. I really quite like these, starting with the blush: I really appreciate that the blush is very buildable. It does not come off as too much color at once so I can use as much as I want to get the right color. I typically do not like pinky blushes because my cheeks flush so red already, so the fact it comes off so lightly is a big deal to me. As for the highlighter, you all know I LOVE highlighters, I have far far too many and will use way too much, and I love this one. It is very pigmented in a good way, it has some pinky undertones to it but is also very warm and will work amazingly in the summer for bronzey looks. A couple swipes is perfect for a normal day (ok, ok.... one swipe..one swipe is plenty..) but a few would be awesome if you just want to glow! I would totally recommend these for a sweet or sexy spring or summer look, they last ...

Hey guys!! Today I am going to review the Colourpop Dream St. Eyeshadow Pallette. I have been LOVING this, the colors are beautiful and they last almost all day, only slightly creasing with the darker colors. These are also very pigmented which is great! (Left to right: Shooting Star, Sweet Dreams, Kaleidoscope, Magical, Water Bearer,  Elfish, Star Dust, Potion, Moony, Twinkle, Spark, Mermaid Bay) Twinkle: This is good for a girly look or a date night kinda look. You could also use elfish to darken it up for a more sexy look. Spark: This is a good blend out shade to add depth, I haven't used it on my lid because it is very bright and a little much for everyday looks, but it blends great and works nice for like a sunset vibe kinda look. Mermaid Bay: This one doesn't come off as pigmented or true to color as I would like. It is very pretty but I usually need to put it over water bearer to achieve the color and brightness I want. Star Dust: ...

Hey guys! Today I am going to review the It Cosmetics CC+ Cream. I really do like this, it is very full coverage though so for that reason and the fact I accidentally got a shade too dark (oops, thought I was slightly tanner but nope) I only use half a pump at a time. Half a pump however is still plenty of coverage. I find I prefer to use a wet sponge to apply this just to tone it down a bit and make it more dewy. I got this as more of a summer foundation so I feel like it looks really nice dewy for summer looks. It seems to protect my skin from the sun as well as any other spf makeup I have used. To be honest I almost never have my face burned if I have on makeup though. Not sure if this would last great in the water, it might last very briefly, but you would need to reapply it occasionally to keep the sun protection.  I definately think this could get cakey if not used sparingly so keep that in mind. I really do like this though and will total...

Hey guys! Tonight I am reviewing the Vita Liberata Fabulous Tanning Lotion. I am going to start off by saying this isn't scent free. It isn't too strong at first but as it sits on the skin for the proper amount of time ends up smelling just like the other self tanners I have used. That being said, I really do like this. It gave me a nice natural looking glow, it needs to stay on quite a while (up to 8 hours) to develop so I put it on at night and by morning my skin was quite tanned. It isn't too orangey or anything like that. I really appreciated that unlike others I have tried this faded out without leaving harsh lines on my wrist from hand washing, you could still see the lines, but they weren't super obvious. This also didn't get streaky even applying with bare hands. I'm quite happy with it overall and think it works great. I have very pale skin so I can't say how it would develop on darker skin, but I would proba...

Hey guys!  I'm super excited for my review tonight because I'm reviewing the Urban Decay Naked Heat Pallette!!!! I was lucky enough to get one of these while Urban Decay had them on sale the other day and I'm so happy.  The colors are beautiful and I'm in love. They are super pigmented and last all day for me. They go on super smoothly. The packaging is also beautiful,  like it all just reminds me of summer and it's awesome.  I have them ordered: Chaser, Sauced, Low Blow, Lumbre, He Devil, Dirty Talk,  Scorched, Cayenne, Enhanced Fuego, Ashes, Ember, then Ounce (I ran out of space on my arm lol) I can't wait to film some tutorials with this and show you guys some looks!! ^_^

Hey guys!! I recently found this polish while in the makeup section of walmart and quite liked the colors. They reminded me of summer and warmth and after the snow a few weeks ago I needed that. I love the colors, they are just as pretty on.  Unfortunately with my job, these polishes chipped very quickly. Which to be honest I was quite disappointed in after having tried the   Kokie Cosmetics nail polish recently and having it last so long. Actually the darker one chipped right after I had done my nails and was just putting things in my closet,  but it was in an area my nail was somewhat chipped already from work so I don't think it was the polishes fault. That being said I'd still recommend this if you don't have a job that will destroy your nails. 

So whilst birthday shopping I was on the hunt for a new bronzer. I haven't really been too into using them in the past because with my skin being so light, I have been afraid of it making me look orange. With that in mind I was looking for something with a dark enough color to give me a slightly tanned look, but with light enough color I didn't look orange. The solution? Finding a bronzer with a mixture of colors. I managed to find a few and this one from NYC caught my attention. It wasn't overly pricey, and had a very nice mixture of colors. I have to say I really like it, it does exactly what I wanted, if I mix the colors together then tap off the brush then I get the right amount of color so that I don't look too dark, just nicely tan and glowy. Now I do have one little problem with this bronzer, as much as I like the color and effect it has, it breaks. As you can see pieces are just coming out of the tray, this means I have to be qui...

So tonight I was in the mood to do a tag post, so I decided on one I saw a while ago, The spring tag :) 1. What three colors remind you of spring?   Hmm I suppose pink, yellow, and bright green. Really any pastel or bright color tends to remind me of spring, although bright is more summer. 2. What is the first thing you add to your spring wardrobe?   Strappy heels and spaghetti strap dresses and tops. I'm always SUPER excited to be back into spring and summery clothing and shoes. 3. What are your ultimate nude and bright lipsticks?   Um well I have a pink one, but I don't know the brand, but it's like this really pretty bright pink. Also for nude I really like Maybelline Color Whisper in Coral Ambition.   4. What is your signature spring fragrance?   I don't know that I really have one, I don't wear a lot of perfume, but I guess it would be one of my bath and body lotions. Maybe Coconut Lime Breeze? Although that is more of...
