&♡*My Favorite beauty Products!*♡&

Hello beautifuls! I am back!! A day late, but back none the less! So I think Sundays will be my days of posting since they are easier for me to have time to take photos and edit! =) Now, enough of me commenting on that.. Let's get to the post!! =)

So a huge request has been a favorite makeup products post so here it is!!! I'll break down with a few products in different categories. Face, lips, and eyes.


Face products


Foundation: Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless ultra definition Liquid makeup in Shade 2.0

So I posted that I switched my face makeup awhile ago due to powder was not working well for my type of skin with having oily/combination skin so I switched to a liquid foundation and this one is wonderful. I love how it doesn't take much product to do full makeup as well as my skin has cleared up some from this, I believe. I have been eating better and working out as well so I am not sure if it was actually the makeup but I feel like my skin feels better lately after switching the foundation. I love that it stays even through working out and it just feels good. All around great product.

Concealer: Benefit Stay Don't Stray, Primer for Concealers and eye shadows in Light/Medium
So I have talked about this product so many times. lol As you can see here, I have used so many bottles of this! I love how it works as a full concealer for me as well as keeps my eye shadows on all day! I use this everyday I do makeup as well as it works to keep my dark circles at bay. lol I have been so busy and working so much that I haven't gotten the sleep I need so this is a lifesaver! I love the consistency as well as coverage! Great product!

Blush: Physicians Formula pH Matchmaker pH powered blush in Natural and NYX blush in Peach
So lately, I've been using the Physicians Formula blush everyday. I love the packaging, color, and mirror. It's amazing and goes on so smoothly. It builds easily and can be subtle to bold. Be aware that you should use a light hand with this product!! NYX blushes are great but definitely should be bought in store. The colors are deceiving online but definitely check them out! They are cost efficient, great color, and decent amount of product! I love them and have several colors but Peach seems like the perfect tone for me!

Lip products


Lip balms: Blistex Deep Renewal Anti-Aging Treatment and Lip Smacker DR. Pepper lip balm
I have used so many of the Deep Renewal lip balms. They taste great, go on smoothly, moisturize so well, and have no color so great for everyday! I don't usually go through products all the way through but this is one I constantly repurchase! The Lip Smacker chapstick has a red tint to it and I just love DR Pepper in general so I love this product! Definitely check them out if you are looking for a lip balm!!

Lipstick: NYX lipstick in Eros and Pink Lyric
I love these lipsticks. Hands down my favorite because they pack a huge color punch! It takes just a couple swipes and BAM! You have color! They are moisturizing and beautiful colors which are also helpful when they are only a couple dollars each! I love how even for the price, they beat out a lot of higher brand names! Check them out at your local Ulta if you get the chance!

Lip gloss: NYX butter gloss in Merengue and Cherry Pie
Alright, NYX wins in the lip department hands down. I love these glosses as well! They have great color and go well over any lipsticks. They don't bleed and are creamy. They also match with colors to the packaging which is fantastic in shopping for new colors! This is so great because I can easily pick a color to match a lipstick if I want to layer! I like that these are not sticky as well. Butter gloss is a great name for them!


Eye products


Eye shadow: Sugarpill Cosmetics pressed eye shadow in Tako and BFTE eye shadow in Atomic Teal and Mermaid
 
Sugarpill Cosmetics was a company I was introduced to when I won a giveaway! This color was my prize! Tako was so well talked about that I decided I needed a matte white in my life! I usually HATE pressed eye shadows but this is amazing! I mean worth the money!! I wear Tako everyday. Literally everyday I wear makeup, this is my highlight color! I am already starting to make a dent in the product! lol Love it!! It is a true white matte color. Beautiful! Now everyone knows I love BFTE but these two colors have stood out too me right now. Mermaid is a duochrome color that changes from a vibrant yellow to a green color. It's beautiful to be paired with a green color which is what Atomic Teal is. It's a blackened teal with shimmer and I wear this a lot to work for a smokey eye look. Love it! I usually used Bondage as my smoke out color but this is a great color to go with my green eyes!

Shimmer: NYX roll on shimmer in Pink and Nude
Now while these are great colors, the stay power isn't that great so a good primer is definitely needed but if you want sparkle, this is the best route to go! They are vibrant and packed with all kinds of shimmer. They are wonderful if you want to add a little variety in your looks! They are not bad on price either!

Mascara: Urban Decay supercurl curling mascara and Benefit They're Real mascara
I have decently long lashes but they don't stand up very well so I need mascaras that will hold all day and give me a bold look so They're Real is my usual go too as I've posted before but I got the Urban Decay mascara in an Ipsy Bag that I thought I'd try out and it works wonderful, especially for my lower lashes. I love using them both together to add a punch to my makeup looks. They both have decent brushes that grab hairs easily and help with lift, length, and definition.

Eyeliner: Chella eyeliner pen in Indigo Blue and indelible gel eyeliner in Magnetism
So Chella eyeliner pen I got in another Ipsy Bag and I love the bold blue color. In a look I did today which I'll post below, I layered both of these together to get a slightly blue toned liner. It is beautiful!! I have mainly been using the gel liner though everyday, especially for work. It's a great color that has a bit of shimmer to it but it's hard to see in the pictures. I ordered this through BFTE although I do not see it on the website anymore. Even so, you can find this sold through a lot of companies. If you're looking for a great gel liner, try this one out!

My look for today includes a lot of the products listed!

Face products: Urban Decay Naked Skin Foundation in Shade 2.0 and Benefit Stay Don't Stray concealer in Light/Medium. Blush is Physicians Formula pH Matchmaker blush in Natural (applied lightly)

Lips are another favorite product of mine.
Benefit Lollitint Candy Orchid lip and cheek stain! A subtle natural pinky/purple tone. It works great and I love it!

Eyes: In inner corner is Lemon from BFTE cosmetics. Then Tako from Sugarpill, the outer corner is a combination of Blue Pacific and the cut crease color is Atomic teal to darken the look!
The liner is Magnetism gel liner and Chella eyeliner pen in Indigo Blue.


I hope you have loved my favorites list! I wanted to show a lot of my go to products because certain things I constantly repurchase and keep with me at all times! This definitely is the most requested post so I wanted my return to be of your requests!

Thank you again to all of my readers for sticking with me! I love you all and appreciate all of the support!! Now that it's 2 AM, I'm going to finally get that beauty sleep that I need lol I will be working on posting going forward on Sundays! Next will be about the nail stickers I tried out in the last picture! Stay tuned! =) Until next time, stay smiling beautifuls!

Update && BFTE Cosmetics last Day to Purchase!!!

Hello my lovelies! I AM BACK! Finally, I know! My last courses in college kept me away a little longer but as of Wednesday, I am officially a college graduate! I now have my degree in business and all the hard work and having to put off my passions has paid off! This last semester was crazy stressful with trying to visit family and do college. I just didn't have enough time to really put into giving you all the best posts I could make so I waited till I graduated to return.

I will be working on new posts and possibly re-amping my blog over the next few days so thank you all for sticking with me through this last year and the lack of posting! I really do appreciate those who have viewed this blog! It really is a passion of mine but I wanted to pursue a higher education as well.

Who knows what the future holds for me but I think that's the exciting part about life! I'm finding what I'd like to do in the future and love having my creative outlet here with all of you but also love having this business degree to see what doors it can open for me! I have a real eye for business so this is exciting to me to see what happens next!

Anyways, enough about me! Back to the huge point to this post!

As you all may know, I'm a huge fan of BFTE cosmetics. Huge as in own probably 300+ colors now. I was blown away by the quality of this company and the company's owner. Crystal was a huge inspiration to me to start sharing my looks to lead to the confidence of throwing myself out there in the blogging world. I was so amazed by the amount of talent posted on the fan page on facebook that I started gaining confidence in my own abilities, not to mention have found my own style through this adventure!

Crystal has decided to close the doors for an undetermined amount of time to take a break and find what she would like to do next. As we all go through phases in our lives to find what we want to accomplish in our lives, I respect her loyalty to herself as well as fans in this time she is taking to figure out what is next.

Just as I am doing with finding what is a best fit in my life, she is as well! I wish her the best of luck in her future endeavors and do hope that BFTE cosmetics reopens again! The BFTE cosmetics fanpage on facebook has been my go to for inspiration, encouragement, and friendship.

If you are wanting to purchase today, please visit:

www.bftecosmetics.com

or to get inspired like I was by Crystal and the talent on the fanpage:
Please search BFTE Cosmetics on facebook!

They are doing giveaways today as well! Check them out!!

So to end this post, thank you to this wonderful company for opening my eyes to this world of beauty and teaching me to be true to myself and what I want to accomplish in my life, no matter what the size of the goal is!


BFTE Cosmetics

Keep dreaming lovelies! Aim for the stars! Study, learn from others, ask questions, be creative, and most importantly, ALWAYS be true to who you are.

Stay beautiful lovelies,

&*(Green with Envy Tutorial)*&

Hello beautifuls! I'm back again tonight with a tutorial that I decided to do last minute after lots of compliments on the makeup I was wearing. Now, I apologize in advance that I didn't take pictures of each step. I plan to do that with future tutorials but because this one seemed to get such a great response, I decided to attempt to throw together a tutorial with what I had && to give a few tips along the way. =) So here is a picture of the finished look that I will be walking you through! Ignore the silly face! haha =P It definitely isn't my best picture but none the less, it does the makeup justice! =)

Green with Envy
*You can click the images to make them larger*


One of my favorite things to do is to play up my green eyes. I love wearing green on my green eyes because it has helped bring out the color of my eyes, plus.. What can I say? My favorite color is green! =) Also, I was feeling a little flirty the day I did this makeup so all the eye colors have sassy names! ;)

Let's get started!


So after I decided a couple days later to do a tutorial for this, I decided to pull out all the makeup I used and take a few snap shots so you know what products I am talking about during each step!

So let's start with the eyes since they are the focal point of this look!


Here is the list of the products in no order that were used on my eyes.

1.) Maybelline Lash Stiletto Voluptuous Waterproof mascara in black.
2.) Sephora blending brush from their holiday collection last year.
3.) NYX Slide on, Glide on, Stay on, & Definitely a Turn on Water Proof, Extreme Shine Eye Liner in Pure White
4.) As a highlight color, Butt Naked from BFTE cosmetics.
5.) As the main bold green, Lavish by BFTE cosmetics.
6.) As the blending between the bold and dark color, Sinful by BFTE cosmetics.
7.) As the start of the dark crease, Dangerous by BFTE cosmetics.
8.) As the dark color in the outer V of the eye, Bondage by BFTE cosmetics.
9.) Maybelline Line Stiletto Ultimate Precision Liquid Eyeliner in Blackest Black.
10.) Benefit Stay Don't Stray Primer (mini version from collection at Ulta)

Now to start the look!

Step 1: Apply a primer. In my case, I used Benefit Stay Don't Stray Primer because it matches my skin tone perfectly and because it really does help hold the eyeshadows. A primer is really helpful with mineral makeup as well. 

Step 2: Now here is a trick I love! I applied the NYX eyeliner in Pure White to the inner corners of my eyes and along half of the bottom lashline. This helps to bring light to your eyes in a really dark look. I love doing this trick even when I'm doing neutral looks. I warmed up some of the liner on my hand and applied it to the inner corners with just my finger for this. I like to warm up products like this or even the primer to make a smoother application.

Step 3: Using the Sephora blending brush, I started to apply my colors. I started with my lightest to darkest colors. It tends to be easier to start light to dark because it is a lot harder to remove dark makeup if you mess up starting with dark colors first. I applied Butt Naked under my eyebrows, and applied a little over the NYX Pure White eye liner. The eyeliner works as a base as well to hold the highlight better.

Step 4: Next I applied Lavish, the bright bold green to 3/4 of the eye lid. I love bold bright colors put on this part of the eye because it helps to bring light to the eye as well. I always choose bright shimmery colors for that reason. Bright yellow and greens are my favorite to wear this way.

Step 5: Next I started with Dangerous to start creating the crease. I applied this color to the outer V as well as crease. It's such a beautiful color because it's a deep teal color which compliments the bright green really well.

Step 6: I applied Sinful to help blend where Lavish and Dangerous meet. It helped to soften and blend out the line to be flawless. I truly believe the best tool to have with eye makeup is a blending brush. It helps to soften the looks dramatically, especially since most of my looks have a lot of colors involved. I also cleaned off the blending brush by swiping it across a paper towel to remove any makeup from it and blended the harsh line that Dangerous created. It is definitely a dark color and a little goes a long way with this makeup!

Step 7: Next I took my favorite outer V color, Bondage, and applied it to just the outer V. Don't be fooled by the camera's take of this color. It really is a dark almost charcoal color that works AMAZING for darkening a look. This color you could use with pretty much any look to darken it up! I then did the same routine of wiping the brush clean and blending the edges of the eye makeup to blur that line so it wasn't a harsh line.

Step 8: Next I applied a VERY thin line with the Maybelline Line Stiletto liquid eyeliner along the top lashline. Liquid liner takes some practice and my first few times working with it were not pretty haha but it is worth the effort for a bold dark line. I start in the middle of the eye and slowly work my way out and then work from the inner eye out. I like this liner because it's waterproof and you can really make a thin line or a bold line quickly with the applicator. I would recommend light hands for this. 

Step 9: Finish off the eyes with Maybelline Lash Stiletto Voluptuous mascara! I also love this formula because it is waterproof and I love the applicator of this mascara! 

Now the face!


The products for the face in no particular order are:

1.) Coastal Scents 10 Blush Palette
2.) Maybelline ColorSensational Lipcolor in Pink & Proper.
3.) ELF cosmetics Complexion Brush
4.) Sephora Professional mineral powder brush
5.) Jonny Cosmetics Liquid Powder Mineral Foundation in Porcelain.

Step 1: I applied Jonny Cosmetics foundation in Porcelain using the Sephora mineral powder brush. Now, I have not talked about this company before because I just met Jonny on Thursday who gave me a sample to try and I have to say I fell in love with this foundation! The formula is fantastic and it feels light and soft when you put it on. It is a mousse consistency but once applied, turns to a soft satin finish. It's fantastic! I will definitely be mentioning this company later in my favorites post coming soon! 

Step 2: I then blended the first two colors of the Coastal Scents 10 blush Palette and applied a very light application of this color. I didn't want to over power my face with too much color so I just applied enough to add more warmth to my cheeks. 



Step 3: I applied Maybelline ColorSensational lipcolor in Pink & Proper on my lips. I love that this has a creamy formula and doesn't get cakey like a lot of lip colors do overtime. I also didn't apply this lipcolor as richly as I would usually because I just wanted something to add a little color but not be again over powering the boldness of the eye makeup. 

I try to stick with one bold aspect of my makeup. Either bold lips or bold eyes. In this case, it was bold green smokey eyes. 

I apologize this didn't have as many pictures and I promise the next one will be picture and not as much word described! =)

I hope you enjoyed this look. I'll be doing a look tutorial with the BFTE Coffee Shop Collection soon as well as a tutorial on one my FAVORITE looks which is very pinup look with neutral eyes and bright red lips! 

Until then, stay smiling beautifuls!

XoXo,

&*(BFTE Cosmetics Coffee Shop Collection Review && Swatches)*&

Hello lovelys! I am back! With a better camera, better and stronger passion for this blog, as well as just feeling all around better as the evening has gone on. If you have followed my personal facebook page, you'd know that I suffered from an severe allergy flare up yesterday. I unfortunately am allergic to pretty much everything around me so I must have touched something and became seriously sick pretty fast. I'm visiting my parents right now for the holidays and they have three cats which I am beyond severely allergic too but I'm determined to spend time with them when I can so I'm toughing it out! =)

Anyways, I am feeling some better this evening so as promised, I have two new posts for you!

Thank you again for all of your support and understanding! I see how many views I get everyday and I'm beyond humbled and thankful for each and every one of you!! You are all amazing!

Alright alright, I'm shutting up and getting to the post!

BFTE (Beauty From The Earth) Cosmetics launched the Coffee Shop limited collection awhile ago now and I'm just getting around to swatching it after playing with the colors for a bit now. A new look will be posted soon of using only the colors from this collection!

Until then, here is the swatches and review!

You can get this collection for $33.00 at: http://www.bftecosmetics.com/Coffee-Shop-Collection_p_774.html.

This collection includes 5 full size colors that are all extremely wearable for those who love neutrals. I actually bought one for me and one for my Mom who loves little less bold looks like I love. haha


This collection offers a wide variety of neutrals including a matte color that can be used as a highlight.



The colors are as follows:

Top row, left to right: Salted Caramel and Mocchiato.
Bottom row, left to right: Chai, Espresso, and Caffe Latte. 


Swatches match the same line up as the above picture! =)
First swatch is dry. Second swatch is wet. Third swatch is done over Benefit Stay Don't Stray Primer.


Now the review:

If I was being completely honest, this is not my favorite collection from BFTE. The quality is amazing as expected from BFTE but the colors offered in this collection are just not colors I would wear a lot. I do wear neutrals more often as of lately but these colors are just not my go to colors although I do use Espresso for a liner a lot. I like how it is a rich dark brown which works well for a liner. Unfortunately Caffe Latte was way too close to my skin tone that you can't tell I'm wearing it if it is applied dry or over my usual primer. I think my favorite colors out of this collection would be Espresso and Mocchiato. Chai becomes almost bronze when you are blending it out so it isn't a color I would wear often. Salted Caramel is pretty but not a color I would use often.

I am NOT saying this is a bad collection. These are my personal opinions of colors. These are colors that I just wouldn't wear often. The quality is just what you expect from BFTE. It's amazing products and if you've seen any of my previous posts, you'd know I have about 300 colors from them now. I definitely stand behind this company as you will see my next post is a BFTE cosmetics eye look! =)



Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed the swatches and review of this collection. Up next is a break down of a look I did the other day! I had lots of compliments on it so I decided to do a tutorial so keep an eye out for that post which also includes all the makeup I used for my entire face including a new cosmetic line that I will be talking about soon! Exciting stuff! =)

Until next time, stay smiling beautifuls!

&*(What is Coming Soon...)*&

Hello beautifuls! I apologize the relaunch is going a little slower than I'd like. I hosted Thanksgiving at my house this year and then drove back with my parents to SC to spend some quality time with them. Because of this, I was extremely busy and traveling which made posting difficult.

Anyways, now that my excuses are posted haha I am going to be working on a new design for the blog tonight so if you sign in and it looks crazy with colors and backgrounds, haha it's probably me online changing EVERYTHING down to the line colors! :P I am currently finding the best lighting set up for photos so I apologize new posts will be delayed till I have my camera station set up. I promise now that I am not in the car, I'm working hard to get new material out there for you.

In the mean time, I figured a what's coming soon post couldn't hurt!

Here is the list of requests and posts I already have planned doing in the near future!
*Thank you to my friend and follower, Shannon for giving me some great feedback and requests! My readers are my inspiration! <3*

As you can see, I have a lot of things coming up for you lovelys!

Thank you all for your support and continued views on this blog. It felt fantastic today to get such great feedback and that is worth making the commitment to this blog! <3
