Hey Guys!
I decided this month that instead of doing a YouTube video on my april favorites, I would do a blog post instead. This will probably be the only time I do this, but with finals looming overhead this is the easiest way for me to share my current beauty favorites! If you watch my YouTube videos then you may have seen these products before, but if not I hope you find something new!
I’m going to start off with eye products since I have quite a few. The first one is my Nars “And God Created the Woman” pallet. If you watch my videos then you saw me rant and rave about this in a haul video. I’m literally obsessed with this product. It’s perfect for traveling since it’s small (a lot smaller than the Naked palettes) and it has every color you would need. Lately I’ve been obsessed with the last color in the first row and the first color in the second row. They compliment each other so well and make for the perfect day time look.
(Ignore my hand covering the mirror LOL)
My next eye shadow is MAC’s “All That Glitters”. This has been in my collection for almost a year and only got used here and there. Lately I’ve been obsessed with sweeping this over my lids on lazy days. It’s great on it’s own as well as with a cool toned brown (MAC Charcoal Brown?) in the crease. It’s perfect for the spring and summer!
The final eye shadow product the Maybelline 24 Hour Color Tattoo in “Bad to the Bronze”. I’ve had this product for over a year now and I’m pretty sure it’s been included in every favorites video since. It’s perfect on it’s own but lately I’ve found that it makes the perfect base under a smokey eye!
Moving onto brows I have two products. The first is the Maybelline Great Lash Clear Mascara. I’ve been using this as my brow gel lately and loving it! It keeps everything in place and lasts a lot longer than the ELF brow gel, which is what I had been using before.
Going right along with that I am completely in love with my Tweezerman tweezers. They get every little mirco-hair you can imagine and the pain is significantly less than when using a regular tweezer. They’re a bit pricey but totally worth it.
The last eye product is MAC’s Fast Response Eye Cream. My mom swore my this product for years until she randomly became allergic and passed it down to me. If you’re like me and tend to wake up with puffy eyes (especially after crying) then this is the product for you. I apply it before bed and I’ve noticed that my eyes are a lot less puffy in the morning than when I don’t use it. Plus, it’s never too early to start wearing eye cream.
My next product is one that I’ve had for a while but it somehow got lost in the mix of all my other makeup, and it’s the Benefit Boiing concealer. I apply this to any breakouts or red areas before putting foundation on and it helps give my skin a flawless look. It’s also great at hiding acne scarring.
I have rediscovered my love for the Benefit Boxed Powder in “Dandelion”. It’s the perfect pale pink blush with just the slightest shimmer. I’m pretty pale so this color is perfect for me. It’s not too harsh, but it also doesn’t wash me out.
Finally, I have also rediscovered my love for my Miss Dior Cherie perfume. I tend to only use this perfume in the spring time. The scent is just so girly and whimsical.
So there you have it! I’d love to know what your april favorites are in the comments below!
P.S. I'm still getting used to blogger and can't figure out how to get the pictures perfectly aligned!
XOXO
