Hey girls! ❤ I wanted to share my new drugstore blush additions, they are the Revlon Powder Blushes in Melon-Drama, Classy Coral, Racey Rose. I was able to find these on sale at the drugstore, and I was a little hesitant to pick these up at full price. The colors looked amazing, and the packaging is nice and sleek which I like. I was happily surprised with these. They apply gorgeously on the skin, very natural looking, and I really love the shade range. I picked up all the pinky-peachy shades, and I’ve been really enjoying them when on the go. They are fairly cheap and come with a brush, which I don’t really use, but overall I’m really liking these little blushes! Totally recommend checking these out from the drugstore!

Flower Kiss Stick High-Shine Lipstick luxury Lipsticks
Hi everyone! ❤ I wanted to share some new lippies I picked up yesterday! They are the Flower Kiss Stick High-Shine Lipstick luxury Lipsticks. I am a HUGE fan of these lipsticks. Love the formula, packaging, price and scent. For drugstore, these are great quality and look really nice on my vanity. 🙂 These are really hydrating and glossy on the lips with intense pigment. The scent is slightly floral but nothing over powering, and I love how creamy and smooth they apply. The line was originally created by Drew Barrymore and what’s unique about the brand is that it is cruelty free, made in the USA, and formulated with high end ingredients. They are able to offer such great products for a low price because they take pride in not doing any paid advertising. I got: Apricot Blossom, Baby Buttercup and Berry Bloom.
How Not To Look Sick!
I have been sick the past few days and have definitely not been enjoying myself! Fortunately, I found some quick and effective ways not to look like I’m a slobbering mess. I found that a great dewy foundation and a good coverage concealer will do wonders. Applying a nice layer of moisturizer and eye cream will be even better. To bring some life back into my skin, a pink blush with a bit of a sheen and some bronzer really made me look alive. Lastly a trusty lip balm and a moisturizing tinted gloss were also saviors. What are some of your go to staples when you’re sick?

OH, pinky-nudes, how I love you. ❤ The MAC lipstick formula has to be one of my favorites, especially the Cremesheen and Lustre formulas. They smell amazing, like vanilla, and go on smooth and pigmented. A couple of these are in the permanent collection, but a lot of them were from limited edition collections. Here is a list of my all time favorite MAC lipsticks!: MAC Flair for Finery, MAC Feed the Senses, MAC Modesty, MAC Close Contact, and MAC Creme Cup.

Becca Pressed Shimmer Powders: Princess, Nefertiti, & Angel
I seriously LOVE these powders. ❤ They are one of my all time favorite highlighters. The Becca Pressed Shimmer Powders $38 are velvety soft, finely milled highlighters that give the most amazing sheen to the cheeks. I have Princess (warm golden pink), Nefertiti (rose opal), and Angel (champagne). They are currently 50% off the website, so I think they are being discontinued, but I managed to find mine of Ebay for a great price. Becca as a brand I am a huge fan of, and I love all their products. The packaging is really stunning, metal embossed tops and brown rubberized casing. These powders really give off a natural glow without being too overpowering and feel very lightweight.
