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.

MINI HAUL!

So, I did some shopping. Just wanted to get on and share the few things that I picked up this weekend. I seriously cant wait to start using everything! On with the haul!

Starting from the left:

1. MAC Extra Dimension Eyeshadow in Triple Impact. My heart is palpatating at how beautiful it is. It is a pretty sheer wash of color but its gorgous! Its a whiteish color that reflects purple!
2. Lorac Glogetter Palette.  I spotted this beauty on the Ulta website and I knew I had to have it. It contains 8 Matte Vibrant shadows and 2 highlighting shades. It is going to create some great summer time looks. EEEEKKKK!
3. MAC Lipglass in Silly. This is from thier new collection. It is a hot pink lipgloss that creates a BANG on the lips. yeah buddy!
4. Maybelline Color Tattoos in Cool Crush and Seashore Forests. I have many of these cream shadows by maybelline but nothing like this! These beauties are duochrome. They are both in the blue family. Cool Crush is a lighter color that has a more silvery reflection while Seashore Forests is a darker blue that reflects gold. B-E-A-U-T-F-U-L
5. ELF Metallic Neon Trio. From the pictures you can only see the orange one but, there is also a hot pink and a bright blue. These are spot on for spring and summer!
6. Simple Oil Balancing face wipes. I love Simple products. I have pretty sensitive skin and these low maintaince wipes help to reduce irritation. I havent ever used this type but hopefully they will help control the shine!

Everything but ELF and MAC came from ULTA. They had thier Friends and Family Sale this weekend which meant 20% off! I had to take advantage! ENJOY!

NOTD: Gold and Nude

Just wanted to pop on quickly. I hae been a little behind on posts but I have a new mani to share tonight. We all know that french tips can be hard to acheive at home. So, I decided to switch up the traditionals style to create something a little more modern with the same feel!

 

 

I wish that the pictures would have turned out better! Sorry about that! But instead of just going straight across I decided to do it at an angle where it created a "V" shape at the tip of the nail.

 

To create this look I used a a pinky nude by ELF. It came in a three pack and I am not sure it has a name :/ For the tips I used Gold Coin by Revlon. One of my favorite polishes in my vast collection!

 

I am really in love with the look and it is really simple to do!

 

Next up, I plan on doing a first impression of my new favorite mascara! Keep your eyes peeled and as alwasy, PLEASE SUBSCRIBE! :)
