CURRENT MAKEUP FAVORITES-APRIL

Friday, April 5, 2019



Happy Friday friends! 

Let me tell y'all these allergies are killing me! It's bad y'all! I can go maybe 5 minutes without sneezing! And when I do sneeze I go crazy! If you didn't know I'm one of "those" people that sneeze back to back to back! haha My skin is also acting crazy! Through time, I've gone from having oily skin to combination skin, to now dry skin! I'm thinking the weather has a lot to do with it! So I'm trying out all sorts of moisturizers!  

Okay, so in the last few months I've been trying out some beauty products and have found some good ones! I really wanted to share these with y'all because, when it comes to makeup I just do the basics ya know? I wish I was the creative type when it comes to makeup but I wasn't blessed in that category. And I know a lot of my follower friends are the same! You can also check out my last beauty post here

1) MAKEUP REVOLUTION BLUSH/HIGHLIGHTER PALETTE - I found this palette on the ulta website, if you click on the bold parts of this post, it'll take you to the exact product. This palette is super affordable! The blushes are so pigmented and they color pay off is great! As far as the highlighters go, the only one that fits my skin tone is the gold-yellowish color! The other shades look a bit ashy on my skin tone. 

2) NYX MATTE BRONZER -  I have bragged about this  bronzer many times already but I just honestly love it so much! It wasn't until I bought this bronzer that I actually started to bronze my face. I have swatched others and they come off a little greyish and this one is just the perfect shade, it's more on the orange side but definitely nothing crazy, in my opinion is the PERFECT shade! 

3) MORPHE BRONZED PALETTE  - This is my first time purchasing anything from this brand, but when I saw Casey Holmes using this palette I had to have it. It has ALL the perfect neutral colors! I have used it a gazillion times already and I purchased it like 2-3 weeks ago! I will say that they shimmer or foiled colors are a tad bit hard to blend, I've tried wetting my brush and using my finger but it's still a little difficult for me. Do take in mind that, again, I am not great at eyeshadow so I could totally be doing something wrong. I'll keep you guys updated on this. 

4) TARTE LIGHTS, CAMERA, LASHES MASCARA  - So this gem actually came as a free gift when I purchased the Morphe palette. And y'all....IT IS AMAZING!  I started using it last week sometime because my all time favorite (l'oreal telescopic) ran out so I tried this and dang it I fell in love! It's definitely a little pricier ($23) and I'll be honest I don't know if I'd purchase the bigger tube  so I'm going to make this baby last! I'm more a drugstore type of gal, but you know what they say, you do crazy things when you're in love! 

5) MAKEUP REVOLUTION BANANA POWDER  - I have a love and hate relationship with this product right now. Like I said, my skin has been super dry this week so of course that affects how your makeup applies. I've been using it just for my under eye (where I apply my concealer) I let it sit for maybe 2 minutes and then I brush it off, and it just makes my under eye so bright! I have used it all over my face and works great too! BUT with how my skin is right now, it just clings to my dry areas! Especially under my eyes because I'm constantly rubbing them (hello allergies) and you know the rest, so I'm staying away from it until I get my skin under control. 

6) E.L.F BEAUTY SPONGE - If there is one thing that I highly suggest you try is this sponge! I've never tried the original beauty blender, I use to use the Real Techniques Beauty Sponge, which works amazing, but again I saw Casey Holmes bragging about this so I purchased! haha and WOWZA is this beauty sponge good! It works great either damp or dry! It's a little squishier (i'm great with description) than the real techniques. And for the price ($4) it's great y'all I promise! Try it! 

7) MAYBELLINE FIT ME LOOSE POWDER - Another product that I have previously talked about! I love this powder! I apply it all over my face to set everything and it just leaves my makeup looking flawless! This is such an oldie but a goodie! 

I hope you enjoyed this post! And if you try any of these products let me know how you like them! Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and for continuing to support me!
