Eye shadow creasing will be a thing of the past with Urban Decay Eyeshadow primer. The #1 selling primer is legendary in the beauty industry. I have super oily lids so I have tried everything and many primers to no avail, until I was introduced to this product a few years back now I cannot live without it . Not only does it act as a bonding agent for my shadow to stick to (all day long) but it also makes the shadow POP and appear very vibrant . It is a cream that blends into all skin tones, and is easy to put on. It’s just a swipe on each lid and blend, wait about 5 seconds and your lids are ready for shadow, that fast! It comes in a squeeze tube and comes in different shades to enhance your shadows or wear alone. ($20) available at Sephora

Can’t get enough of this facemask
28 FebI love a good facemask and I can’t get enough of Origins clear improvement active charcoal mask. The activated charcoal acts like a magnet to draw out dirt and toxins. It makes me feel like a spring chicken, seriously my face is tight ( not in a dry way)and clean feeling when I rinse it off. It’s super easy to use, I just put a hot towel on my face to open the pores, followed by the mask. I leave it on until it dries like armor, that thing won’t budge. The reviews are excellent online as well,g lad to see I’m not the only person who loves it. ($22) available at Origins.

Get your brow on
8 FebEyebrows literally frame your face. Lets not forget about our furry friends while going about our makeup routines. I have tried all things BROW and trust me, these 2 kits are the best. NYC kit($4) available at Target. 
Lorac, Take a brow kit($22) available at sephora. I love these powder and wax kits because they give a very natural look as opposed to the ‘drawn on’ look. My brows are pretty thick, but I use this kit to fill in and keep my brows put. I used to use the lorac kit religiously and bought the NYC kit just to try out and it works just as great. The Lorac kit comes in 4 color Palettes, that is the advantage. I happened to find my color in the NYC kit, so I use that now and Hello it’s $4 bucks!

Rise & Shine
2 Feb
I get asked a lot what my favorite lip gloss is. I have tried so Many great glosses but the same two always rise back to the top of my list. I’m kinda over the “glassy” lip look but I like a subtle shine. Chanel glossimer in Blizzard($29.50) is Amazing. I put that on and put Milani gloss in Whisper($4) on top of it and it stays for hours is quite pretty. It’s my favorite combination. I also wear the Milani gloss alone when I’m running around , it’s the perfect shade of super light peachy pink for daily wear. These colors look great on so many different skin tones as well. You can pick up the Chanel glossimer at any Chanel store or Dept. stores, and the Milani gloss is at Target as well as select drug stores.:)
