June Beauty Favorites 2014

Happy 4th of July everyone! Better late than never on my favorites, right? I had planned on posting this on Wednesday, but I was just so excited for the new Lorac palette that I figured this could wait one more day. June wasn't a very adventurous month for me beauty wise, but I did have a few products that really stood out for me, so let's get into it.

What did I pick up from Sephora?

My plan came through and I was very lucky to receive Sephora giftcards from my family members for Christmas this year. So, what did I do? I ran to the mall the day after Christmas to start my shopping. There were a few things I had in mind that I knew I wanted/needed, but this was my chance to get some things I might not have gotten if it wasn't for the giftcards. 

Christmas Beauty Wishlist!

Am I the only one who craves makeup for my birthday and Christmas? Ha, who am I kidding? Obviously we all do or we wouldn't be here right? Now, this year I've strategically asked all of my family to give me Sephora gift cards hoping that it works out in my favor and I'll get to go a little crazy. I don't like to go bat shit crazy in there often because I can't justify it, but with gift cards, I have to go a little buckwild right? So, with all of that said, who are the few things I'm looking forward too...

Blogtober Day 30! The Princess Tag

This is another tag that I have been watching on YouTube for a while now, and I'm not sure who created this one, but it's interesting. I am going to share which high end makeup items feel worth it to me. If I could have an unlimited amount of money to purchase one item for every category, what would I choose. Here we go:             Foundation: Hands down, Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation. I believe this retails for $42, and it really is worth it. Wonderful coverage.       Concealer: Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer which retails for $28. This stuff doesn't compare to any other product I have ever tried. Very worth the splurge.  Powder: My favorite powder changes every so often, my skin is so oily I have to keep tryin new things. The MAC Studio Fix is my favorite at the moment and it is $29.       Bronzer: As you might be able to tell, I love Nars Cosmetics, but some products there prices are just too much for wha...

Blogtober Day 16! BATTLE! October Ipsy vs Birchbox

Another month, another subscription box. Which one will be the winner?!  Starting off with Ipsy, the bag is really cute this month. The quote on the bag saying, "Love of beauty is taste. The creation of beauty is art." I think that is pretty cute!  The first thing is a full size Coastal Scents Medium Shader Brush. It seems like nice quality and I have never tried their brushes so I'm excited about that.                Next is a 1 oz body lotion by the brand Nourish Organic. It's Coconut and Argan and it smells very strongly of Coconut. Coconut is not my favorite scent, but lotion will always be used by me.               Next is a full size Zoya Nail Polish, I don't know the name, but it is a very pretty color. A dark blue/purple halo graphic color. Pretty nice!  I also received a pigment by Bella Terra Cosmetics. It's a dark shimmery purple color and another very pretty shade.    ...
