my go to beauty products

so we all have that one signature look, or as i like to call it an "oh my gosh i have to get out of the house in fifteen minutes default look" -- wow that was a mouthful.  for me i don't put makeup on before i leave the house simply to look presentable i actually truly enjoy applying it and miss it if i don't get the chance to put it on.  anyways enough chit chat now i'm going to fill you in on the products i use when i don't have time to leisurely think about what i'm putting on my face.



NARS SHEER GLOW {foundation} -- in my opinion this is a light to medium foundation, if you have a lot of breakouts i don't suggest it but it does wonders to even out skin tone.  nars describes it as having a satin finish, and sheer glow is pretty spot on this foundation gives you a believable glow yet it doesn't make your face look like an oil spill.   in case you're wondering my shade is deauville (yes i am extremely pale but i am growing to love it!) 

MAC MINERALIZE SKINFINISH NAURAL (light) {setting powder} -- this is the  perfect powder to set your face, it's sheer coverage, never looks cakey, and just gives skin a natural "your skin but better" finish.

BENEFIT HOOLA {bronzer} -- this matte bronzer works perfectly for an all over splash of color and for contouring.

MAC  PAINTERLY PAINT POT {eyeshadow base} -- this is a perfect skin toned cream base to use.  finding the perfect base was a turning point for me it was so frustrating to see my eyeshadow creasing half way through the day , now i never worry about it. painterly  keeps my eyeshadow in place from morning to night.

MAC EYESHADOWS {shroom and satin taupe}-- shroom {satin finish} looks gorgeous sweeped across my eyelids, add satin taupe in the crease and outer corner and i've got a relatively pulled together eye look.

URBAN DECAY  24/7  LINER {underground} -- gorgeous  brown pencil liner with a hint of plum.  it compliments my eye color like a dream and doesn't look too harsh.

MUFE LASH FIBERS &  L'OREAL VOLUMINOUS  {black} {mascara} -- my lashes are the shortest lashes you've ever seen. well maybe not but they're barely noticeable without mascara.  that's why i love the lash fibers they elongate my lashes and act as a great base for my favorite mascara  {currently l'oreal voluminous}  just a warning at first i found this mascara to be a pain in the butt, it was clumpy and wetter than i usually like a mascara but after a week it dried up a bit and quickly became  a top mascara.

KORRES LIP BUTTER {guava} -- this lip butter makes my lips unbelievably smooths , mutes out my lip color {i'm a nude lip lover} and gives it a nice not too shiny shine.

you're beautiful, don't you ever forget that.
