Products On My Radar

   I absolutely love makeup (which you will soon find out if you don't know this already) I believe it is an art form and truly does take a talent to perfect. It's most certainly not something people are just naturally good at. There are tips and tricks to mastering the wing flick and brow arch, yes, you know exactly what I'm talking about. These are some products that I've had my eye on and have heard nothing but good reviews. Ordered by type, I hope you enjoy!

What will you be picking up next time at you're at your favorite beauty store?

The ABH Glow Kit. Not only do you have two different kits to pick from, you have four different highlights available for your liking! Anastasia never disappoints with her products.

BECCA Cosmetics Highlighter in Opal & Moonstone! I have Champagne Pop, now I'm hungry for the rest of them! So creamy and bright, I can't get enough. 

These serum foundations are perfect for the Florida weather. It's light coverage and wakens up the skin. Stila and Becca just came out with Aqua Glow foundations that people are raving about.

For contouring, I've been excited about Anastasia coming out with a Fair Cream Contour Palette because when you have my skintone, you aren't tan enough for her "Light" palette

NYX also came out with a highlight/contour stick that seems extremely user friendly and their color options are extended and cover a large range of skintones. The product seems great for beginners or for easy contour on the go!

Ooooo, I've got these blushes on my mind. Go to Youtube, type in "Makeup Geek Blush Swatch and Review" and fall in love, I know you will.



There has been and still is only one eyeshadow that I've been DYING to have and that's the Makeup Geek Foiled Eyeshadows, I have had a small obsession of these ever since I first heard of them so maybe one day I'll be okay with forking up the $175!

 & For lips, you'll have to check back in on Thursday! SO many, some will come with reviews because I couldn't help myself!

HIGHLIGHT ON FLEEK

I've been trying to post on certain days so ya'll can have some type of schedule that you can check to see if I've posted but that's just not working for me. I get excited about products or topics and just explode (BUT there will be a post coming tomorrow around 1 pm! That was definitely planned)

Anyway, I had a marvelous beach day today with my love and siblings. On the way home we stopped for milkshakes and burgers, yum yum yum. While sipping on the last of my oreo shake, I moseyed out of the car practically dragging my drained body inside, day-dreaming about how magnificent my shower was going to be until I saw it... my Sephora box patiently awaiting my arrival by my front door. This was thrilling for different reasons:

1) New makeup, obviously.

2) The simple fact that it had arrived a handful of hours earlier than UPS had told me earlier that day

My box of happiness has arrived with several products I was dying to try for the Summer. This includes:

Replica - Beach Walk - the perfect summer scent
Marc Jacobs Daisy - Only because I've heard nothing but great things
Lancome Hypnose Drama Lash - See above ^
Makeup Forever Plexi-Gloss (in colors 202, 100P, 304)
Giorgio Armani Fluid Sheer  - Sometimes a gal's gotta indulge in the glow
Tarte BB Tinted Primer - in shade medium because Summer tan is very real, even if you're a pale girl like me

and last but very not least....dun dun dun

Champagne Pop by BECCA & Jaclyn Hill
Holy beautiful for every skin tone. Hurry and get going and buy it ASAP while it's still on sale!

Other than the perfumes, I haven't tried out any of my new items. But don't you fret, I will update this post sometime before noon so you can see exactly how it looks!

Disclaimer: the internet still hasn't made it possible to smell anything through your computer screen. A serious problem, I know.

I used the mascara, highlight and lipgloss in shade 304. Reaction: What have I been doing with my life prior to these finds? Unaware of what love is, that is the answer.

In all seriousness, the mascara is my new favorite, the highlight is most definitely making me glow but I'm disappointed in the gloss. Although beautiful initially, it makes my lips sticky and didn't last more than four hours. I won't be reaching for these when I have anything more than a couple hour obligation or don't mind reapplying throughout the day.
