M.A.C Sheertone Blush

Hello Everyone, 
This is just a short post about M.A.C Peaches Sheertone Blush ($21.00).






I think this blush is great. It's good for any event/daily wear, not overpowering. It's smooth, blendable, and has a cute all around color. 

Would love to hear your insights, thoughts, comments, etc..

Skincare: Burt's Bees

Hello Everyone!

Today, I wanted to talk about my daily skincare routine. I use three products for my skin on a daily basis: a cleanser, a scrub, and a lotion. I will confess, I am a total Burt's Bees junkie when it comes to skin care! I went through a lot of trial and error with my skin and skincare products for awhile. After going through countless bottles claiming to "clear breakouts" and "not dry out skin" I finally realized that none of these products were working for me, in fact, some were making it even worse, something had to change. That's when the hunt began.

 I started trying out milder cleansers. My forever favorite cleanser will always be Ahava Dead Sea Essential Aloe Vera Cleansing Cream. Sadly, I think they discontinued this product because I can't find it anywhere in stores or online! After sulking for awhile about it, I knew that it was time to go back on the hunt, there had to be something else out there. That's when I discovered these beautiful products -

Burt's Bees Radiance Facial Cleanser ($10)
Burt's Bees Peach and Willow Bark Facial Scrub ($8)
Trader Joe's Enrich Moisturizing Face Lotion ($4) 



Burt's Bees Radiance Facial Cleanser

Burt's Bees Peach and Willow Bark Facial Scrub

Trader Joe's Enrich Moisturizing Face Lotion

I use these products daily. In the mornings I use the Burt's Bees Radiance Facial Cleanser. It's a light lotion cleanser, it leaves my skin feeling pretty moisturized, and makes my skin look brighter and fresher for the day. As well as that, I also use Trader Joe's Enrich Moisturizing Face Lotion in the mornings. It's fragrance free, oil free, doesn't clog my pores, and is not greasy at all. It is a SPF 15 lotion which is great for me, who forgets how beneficial sunscreen can really be sometimes. At night, I use Burt's Bees Peach and Willow Bark Facial Scrub. I feel like it really cleans my pores and exfoliates well. The ground peach stone they have in the scrub to exfoliate can be a bit harsh, I just make sure I am only scrubbing lightly. 

Would love to hear your insights, thoughts, comments, etc..

Urban Decay Naked 3 Eyeshadow Palette

Hello Everyone,
I bought the Urban Decay Naked 3 Eyeshadow Palette at Sephora for $52.00. The colors are rouge based and the spectrum ranges from pink to black. The colors come in both matte & shimmery. All of the colors come off as very prim and pretty. The casing is gold and bronze colored with "wave" imprints and a snap closure. The palette comes with a dual ended application brush and a weeks worth of each of Urban Decay primers. 





My favorite colors are -
Strange - A very pale powdery white. I use it to brighten inner corners of my eyes.
Trick - A metallic coppery color. It's very glittery, which gives it a bit of fall out. I use it to add shine wherever I want.
Nooner - A pinky-brown matte. It is light and powdery. I usually use this on my lid.
Burnout - A shimmery mauve with a frosty finish. I also use this on my lid.
Mugshot - A light brown, it is moderately shimmery. I use this on my outer crease mostly.
Darkside - A dark, highly pigmented brown. I use this color to fill in my brows.




The four primers it comes with are: Original, Eden, Sin, and Anti-aging. 



All in all I love this palette. It is very versatile and fun!
