Benefit Hoola Bronzer

This is a great bronzer.  It is a light brown bronzer with little to no orange tint.  It is completely matt.  It is packaged in an adorable box and comes with a natural bristle brush.  I don't use this brush but it would be nice for travel if you don't bring anything else.  I just use a contour brush or a powder brush depending on what kind of a look I want.  This is a great bronzer for contouring the face.  It has the perfect tone to create a nice shadow and never looks orange.  I have fair skin and this works amazing for me.  I also use it for an all over bronzy glow and to warm up my complexion.  I never have a problem with it looking cakey and it blends like a dream.  The pigmentation is amazing.  I work 12 hour nights and I usually apply makeup even earlier than that; it lasts all night long.  I would say at least 16 hours without breaking up and looking splotchy. 


Overall I think this is a great bronzer because it is versatile.  I would highly recommend checking it out.


I bought mine at Ulta.  Here is a link:

A look using my It pallet

Here is the finished look using my It pallet. I am starting to play around with it more and I love the pigmentation of these shadows. 

If you are interested in recreating this look I used the colors sunrise and sunset in the crease, java on the outer V and at my upper lash line, love all over the lid, and transforming pearl under my brows and the inner v.

For the rest of the face I used my It cosmetics CC cream, Maybelline age rewind concealer, Milani Luminoso blush, Benefit Hoola bronzer, and L'Oréal Voluminous Full Definition mascara. 

You can purchase this pallet here from Ulta:

Makeup Haul May 2014!

Hey guys!!  This is a haul.  I made the hour trip to my Sephora and to Target and did some damage.  I wanted to share with you what I got.  Please let me know if you have any of these products and how much you like them.  I will also do a review video if you are interested on any or all of the makeup products.

Get Ready With Me

Watch while I get ready with minimal makeup for work.  I don't wear much makeup for work but I like to at least look awake while I'm there.  Just enough to cover my uneven skin and brighten my eye area.  Please check out my video and subscribe to my youtube channel while you are there.
