Favorite Beauty Finds

Hi everyone, happy Wednesday! It has been a while since I’ve done a beauty roundup. With the seasons changing, I figured there would be no better time than to share some of my favorite new beauty finds. Since I started working in news I have tried new products to make sure my hair and makeup last for the whole day. These are a few products that I use every day and they never let me down.

I have always worn primer since working, typically I would wear a clear one from NYX. But I made the switch to Neutrogena Green Primer. I know what you may think, green primer?! Trust me it works for me. I have red tones in my skin complexion, so the green primer counter-acts it and balances it out. It may go on green but after you smooth it out and blend it in, the green is gone and your are left with smoother skin and a blender primer.

Speaking of green, I decided to get green concealer as well. Once it again, it counteracts any red blemishes or marks and leads to a smother complexion. It may seem crazy to add double the green to your face and once again this doesn’t work for everyone, but for my skin tone it has been a game changer. You can add a bit more to any problem areas you may have and it blends right in. I use both of these products just for work, on my days off, I go minimal makeup and don’t apply as much product, but for the long days, these products are both game changers.

NYX Concealer

I saw this on Carly’s blog and after she gave great reviews on it, I wanted to give it a try and let me say, I AM OBSESSED. I put this on in the shower daily and my skin is so soft and smooth. I have noticed my skin is less dry too. I also put on body lotion after the shower, but there is nothing better than soft and smooth legs. 

Olay Body Conditioner

Again, another game changer that helps me get through my mornings faster. What I love about this two in one brush is that it brushes your hair while drying it and it gives you great volume. I have only used it a handful of times but I am so happy with the finishes product. This brush works great for on the go mornings or when you don’t want to go out with your hair wet. It is definitely worth the cost and you cn find it online and in stores! 

Revlon Volumizer Brush

These are just my latest favs! What things are you loving this season when it comes to beauty??? Let me know below!!

Favorite Beauty Products

Hi friends! Happy Tuesday!

Today, I’m sharing something every girl loves and uses; beauty products!! Whether we are loyal to one brand or we use a bunch of assorted brands. We all have our favorites! Some beauty products, I stick to one brand and only use their products, other times, I use a variety of brands. Today, I’m sharing my top beauty products, what I use them for and where you can get them.

-Face

I have very sensitive skin and I use a lot of various products to wash, moisturize and keep my skin clear. However, whenever I am in the mood to pamper myself, this is my go-to face mask. I have tried a few different brands, but this one works best with my skin. This is the Miss Spa: Charcoal clarifying mask. There is one sheet mask per package, you put it on for 15-20 minutes and then remove it. Your face will feel refreshed, smoother, and most definitely clearer. I got this from Target and they carry other masks as well, but the charcoal is my favorite. All masks are between $5.00-$10.00. This is a great pick me up for your face.

My favorite mask to unwind after a long day

-Lips

I won this lip scrub and balm as a giveaway from The Chic Mamas. Go check out her blog for all things fashion to mommy and me! I was looking for something that both exfoliated my lips and made them smoother and this answered my prayers. This is the Sara Happ Exfoliate Scrub and One Luxe Balm. I put on the lip scrub after I get out of the shower and once it is moisturized in, I put on the one luxe balm. They both come in different scents, I have the Sparkling Peach lip scrub and Lip Slip Balm. Now they are a bit more expensive, but they last a long time. I use them every day and have had them since Christmas and you can’t even tell I’ve used it. I highly recommend the pair set.

The Best Lip Scrub and Balm. I use it daily!

-Nails

I love taking care of my nails. My favorite brand is Chrome Girl Nails, I have talked about why I love the brand before, you can find it here! They are 8 Free which means there are no harsh chemicals. They carry nail strengthen products like the base and top coat, the nail lacquers themselves, and nail polish removers in delicious scents. Although, Valentine’s Day may be over, you can still wear red, pink, and white for the rest of the month. This trio is perfect for a date night or a day at the office and it’s on sale! The nail polish is a bit expensive but it’s long lasting and there are always sales. Once you wear Chrome Girl, people will be turning heads at your nails.

-Eyes

We have all heard that eyes are the opening to the soul, but what about eye makeup? I always try to accent my eyes especially since I wear glasses. I recently purchased Kylie Jenner’s Kylie Cosmetics, Kyshadow,  Burgundy Pallet and fell in love with it. The colors are neutral, so you can wear it out for a night or just running errands. The colors are highly pigmented, so what you see is what you are gonna get. The price wasn’t too crazy and a lot of the time, Kylie Cosmetics offers free shipping which makes it even easier to purchase things online. Now, I get a majority of my makeup from Target or Ulta Beauty, but every once in a while, I like to treat myself and I was pleasantly surprised with how much I use the Kyshadow Pallet. It was definitely a good purchase.

LOVE the packaging

  • Skin (Concealer)

I don’t know about you, but concealer is my best friend, 99% of the time. It took me a while to find the right concealer that worked for my skin, but I found my match with Neutrogena’s Concealer stick.  I have it in Fair due to my light skin type. I put it on and then smooth it out with a makeup sponge. It goes on smooth and stays on the whole day, I rarely have to reapply. I get mine from Target but they also sell them at Ulta Beauty and Giant Eagle. It runs pretty low on price so I’m not breaking the bank to buy it.

The best concealer!!!

There you have it. My favorite beauty products. Now, those are just my favorite and I use a variety of products.*** This post was not sponsored by any of the brands I shared, I am just sharing my true feelings about these products. What are some products you can’t live without?!
