JUNE FAVORIES



1. IT Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Palette: If you dont own this, what are you doing? Please go to the nearest Ulta, right now! There are 14 beautiful, matte shades and 1 'transforming pearl' shade. This palette is great for basic looks but also for grounding bold looks. and the pearl shade is great for the brow and inner corner highlight!

2. Elizabeth and James Nirvana Black: I got this as a 100 point perk from Sephora a while back but just decided to crack it open!  It is a little bit floral a little bit musky! It can be a little heavy for summer but I just love it so!

3. Mary Kay Bronzer in Medium Dark: Even though I am ghostly white this bronzer is just right for my skin. It is not completely matte but isn't a glitter bomb either so its great to add some color and dimension to my face!

4. Too Faced Chocolate Soliel Bronzer: My favorite contour powder! A nice dark color to get the perfect shadows. Bonus Jonas:  It really smells like chocolate!

5. Mary Kay Blush in Shy: A semi-matte pinky coral. A perfect summer blush!

6. Tarte Maracuja Undereye Concealer: I have been suffering from a dry undereye lately and the Maracuja oil in the concealer has helped from getting my eyes looking crusty. It can been a bit thick and takes some "warming up" but does smooth out and stays pretty creaseless!

7. Elf Blush in Shy: On the days that I want just a touch of color, I have been reaching for this! It is a light pink and it just the perfect wash.

8. L'Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow in Amber Rush: Rose gold perfection!

9. L'Oreal True Match Foundation: I tried this a loooooooong time ago when it first came out and it was crap. I didnt like it at ALL. But, one of my favorite youtubers, Nicole Guerrero, is always raving about it so I decided to give it another go and I am so glad that I did! Its hedging its way to the top of my favorite foundations!

10. L'Oreal Voluminous Original: Holy Grail!! It is always perfect!

11. Mary Kay Bellara Midnight: Very similar to Nirvana! Love it!

12. NYX Stay Matte Not Flat Powder Foundation: I was looking for a new powder that is a little bit cheaper than my MAC MSF Natural and I have been dying to try this. and it is all its cracked up to be!  A smooth finish without looking too powdery. It also adds a little bit of coverage which is always a plus.
