Favorites


I apologize for my blogging slackness! School has been insane.Luckily I only have a few more weeks left, then MY summer will begin. Not only has school taken up most of my time, I have had this constant headache for the past week. I don't know why either because I have been drinking water like I'm suppose to, taking my vitamins, working out, and eating really healthy. You would think I would feel awesome right? Unfortunately no. I have been having these horrible neck pains, so I'm thinking that's the deal with the headaches.So tomorrow I'm going to see a chiropractor to see what's going on.

ANYWAYS, I'll stop boring you and get on to the point of this post. 

I thought it would be a good idea to show you guys some of my favorite beauty products (makeup,hair products,etc).




I used to go to Victoria Secret for the cute panties, now I go for the makeup! I love their makeup line, plus it's not to expensive! These glittery eyeliners are amazing and gorgeous! They are perfect for a night out or if you feel like doing something a little different. I love wearing the turquoise with a smokey eye or with a fun purple eyeshadow. The gold looks great with just about anything. I love wearing it under my eye, or I'll make cat eye with a black eyeliner and outline it with the gold glitter liner. I always get a lot of compliments on these and I HIGHLY recommend them .Actually if I was you I would go RIGHT NOW because they are only like 2 dollars for the Semi-Annual Sale at VC. :)







 Secluded Lagoon Shadow Quad- This is also from Victoria Secret and also apart of the Semi-Annual sale so it was only 4 dollars! I absolutely love it. I use the darker bronze colors as eye shadows and bronzer. I used the lighter color as a highlighter and the green as shadow and to line my eyes. I like to pair this quad with the gold glitter liner and it looks gorgeous!
The lipstick on the left is from Victoria Secret in the shade heartbeat. It's a very light pink and almost looks nude on the lips. It looks gorgeous with dramatic eyes. The one of the right is from Kohl's in the shade Naughty (I don't know the brand eek!) This color is like a reddish coral. I am a huge fan of dramatic lips and a deep red isn't very summery so this is my summer dramatic lip. 











MY FAVORITE! I have been using this gel liner for a couple years now and I haven't found any better. It goes on so smoothly and it stays on all day. It is a little pricey at $30.00, but this little pot goes a long way. 













So sometimes I get sick of using gel liner (my go to) and I use this Urban Decay Pencil liner. This came with my Urban Decay Naked Pallet and I became obsessed with it. It goes on very smoothly and the colors are super pigmented. 








This is probably the best self tanner I have ever used. One thing I love about it is that you can adjust the color. So if you change your mind and want a light sun kissed look you don't have to go out and buy a new bronzer.It doesn't give you that orange look like most self tanners, it gives you a gorgeous glow that looks natural. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.













This is probably my boyfriends favorite "beauty" product of mine haha. He says it makes me smell like a jolly rancher. It is a cool melon scent which is so nice for summer!













OnebyOneVolum' Express mascara is definitely my favorite mascara at the moment. If I could only have one beauty product on me it would be this mascara. I am a natural blond so my eyelashes are SUPER blond so I must have mascara on or I look like I'm 12. It gives you a very dramatic look and makes your eyelashes look very full. Plus it's cheap! 











Mask of Magnaminty by Lush is AMAZING. It leaves my skin so smooth and refreshed. The only problem is it can leave your skin a little dry once you rinse it off. But it is cleaning out all your pores soo I mean it's nothing a little lotion can't fix. It is a little pricey, but it's worth it in my opinion. 












This is a bronzer tinted moisturizer by Stila and I absolutely love it. This is my face during the summer. It gives your face such a sun kissed look and just enough coverage. Perfect for the summer. 














This is a mush have in my shower. It is a deep conditioner and it is seriously magical. It makes your hair so soft and shiny. It is a little pricey being 28 dollars, yet it last a while. I probably use this 3 times a week to help keep my hair healthy. Like I said in a previous post, I am a big fan of dying my hair so this stuff really helps me be able to do that. 











My favorite perfumes for this summer. The one of the left is Flower Bomb which is expensive! I got this as a gift, I would never pay 90 dollars for perfume, but I do love it. It is a very girlie floral smell. The best part is it only takes a little bit and it will last all day. The one on the right is a much cheaper option from Gap called Stay. It smells so fresh and clean. Similar to Happy, just not as strong and a lot cheaper!
