Current Makeup/Beauty Favorites

Happy Thursday, my babes!

Today seems like a great day to kind of update you all on my current favorite makeup/beauty products! Many of these products I use every day!

Vichy Aqualia Thermal Power Face Serum- I have been using this EVERY morning before I apply my makeup! It keeps my skin from getting dry during the winter months!

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel- I have been using this every night! It makes my skin so soft and moisturized! 

Shea Moisture African Black Soap Clarifying Mud Mask- I think I may have shared this mask before! I can apply this at night, take it off, go to bed... and in the morning my face is sooo clear of any little red spots that may have been there before! I love this stuff! I also keep a bar of African Black Soap in my shower to remove my makeup! 

Mario Badescu Facial Spray With Aloe, Herbs & Rosewater- I use this spray daily to set my makeup! I love the dewy look it gives me!

Rimmel London Lash Accelerator Serum- I get asked alllll the time if I have fake lashes, or extensions, and people are always shocked when I say no! Then, I mention that I use this serum! It is so good and a fraction of the price for other lash serums! 

Morphe x Jaclynn Hill 'Ring The Alarm' Eyeshadow Palette- I bought this palette in the fall and OMG. It is beautiful! The colors are stunning!

Urban Decay Naked Cherry Eyeshadow Palette- When this palette came out, I though it was pretty but was a little hesitant because I feel like pinks and reds aren't a good eyeshadow color on me... that was until I received this as a gift at Christmas! I tried it out and fell in love! The colors are gorgeous!

Morphe 35F 'Fall Into Frost' Eyeshadow Palette-This palette is the perfect every day eyeshadow palette! Its full of neutrals and has a nice balance of shimmery and matte!

HOURGLASS Veil Translucent Setting Powder- This setting powder is a dream! Keeps my makeup looking fresh all day long! 

Tart PRO Glow Highlight & Contour Palette- This palette has everything you need-liquid contour, powder contour, and BEAUTIFUL highlighting shades! 

e.l.f. Cosmetics Baked Highlighter in 'Moonlight Pearls'- I use this highlight every day in the corners of my eyes, just to give it some definition! 

Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer Murumuru Butter Bronzer- This bronzer smells like coconuts! I heard such goof things about it and tried it model and love it!!

Makeup Revolution Luxury Banana Baking Powder- Best setting powder I've ever used!!

Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara-The holy grail!! Y'all, I keep coming back to this mascara because it is THAT great! No other mascara makes my lashes as long and thick as this one!

BareMinerals Blemish Rescue Anti-Redness Mattifying Primer- This primer makes my skin stay nice and shine-free all day long! 

Tarte Shape Tape-Another holy grail!! I use this daily in the shade 'Fair Neutral'

Current Favorite Products...

1. Tarte Shape Tape- OK, listen up! If you have not tried the Tarte Shape Tape, you are missing out!! This is the only concealer I have been using for probably about 2 years now. I use the shade 'Fair Beige' under my eyes every day! It conceals like non other and lasts all day. This stuff is a must-have! 

2. Maybelline Tattoo Studio Brow Gel- I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this brow gel! I received it complimentary from Influenster and was really happy with it! I got the blonde shade, and I think it matches with my brows really well! This stuff does not smudge or transfer and it is waterproof! It is supposed to last up to 24 hours!

3. NARS Pore & Shine Control Primer- This primer is a little pricey, but so worth it! It lasts for forever! It really helps with shine control all day long! 

4. Mario Badescu Rose Water Spray- This rose water spray has become basically the holy grail of my daily routine! To say I am obsessed is an understatement! I have been using it as a setting spray for about the past 5 months and I can't imagine my life without it haha. I have heard from other people who used it as a setting spray that they didn't like it, and that it felt like it took off their makeup...? That hasn't been the case for me! It probably depends on what kind of foundation you are using. BUT I use #6 as my foundation every day and this spray leaves my face looking so dewy and fresh! I LOVE IT!

5. e.l.f. Contour Palette - You get maximized bang for your buck with this one! For only $6, I prefer this palette over some of the more expensive palettes I have used from Tarte and Anastasia! I like powder contour more than liquid, because I feel like it looks more natural and blends easier! If you haven't tried this one yet, do it! 

6. Tarte Amazonian Clay Full Coverage Foundation- The only foundation I have used for like the past 4 years, almost! I. am. obsessed. It lasts all day long, gives me full coverage (which I love), AND it goes on so smooth and is not cakey whatsoever! 

7. e.l.f. Intense Eyeliner- Another elf win! This eyeliner goes on so easily! It helps me create the perfect wing! 

8. Vichy Mineral 89- What I use on my face every night! It makes my skin plump and helps me SO much when the crazy Oklahoma weather decides to change seasons in a day, haha. My skin likes to freak out when the temps drastically change. I actually apply it in the morning as well before I put on my makeup. I use two pumps at night and then just one pump in the morning! 

9. Rimmel London Lash Accelerator Serum- I already have naturally long lashes, but since I have been using this serum, I have noticed my lashes getting not just longer, but thicker as well! I put it on my lashes at night before bed and then wash it off in the morning before I apply my makeup! This is such a good and inexpensive alternative to the much more expensive serums that can cost $50-$100!

10. St. Tropez Self Tan in 'Classic'- My favorite self tanner! I can apply this Sunday night, and it can last me a week! I used to tan in tanning beds all the time, but I always knew it was terrible for my skin! Last year I decided to go ahead and just start applying self tanner and St. Tropez has been my favorite ever since!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
