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.

April 2014 EMPTIES!!!

Here are some of the products that I have used up along with reviews of each!   Please subscribe and give a thumbs up if you liked it!!

Maybelline New York Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles Treatment Concealer

This is an amazing concealer.  If you watch beauty videos on YouTube then I'm sure you have heard the rave reviews about this product. 
I am someone with very dry under eyes.  This makes things very difficult when looking for an under eye concealer to deal with my dark circles.  I am also almost 30...don't tell anyone...so I have fine lines under there as well.  This concealer has moisturizing properties so it never looks dry or cakey.  I always use it after an eye cream and it stays put all day (I'm talking 12-14 hour days).  I also use this on my eye lids on days that I don't wear eye shadow to cancel out any veins and redness I may have.  It works amazing for that too.  I have also tried it as an eye shadow primer but did not enjoy it that way.  I have fairly oily eyelids that crease easily so I need a primer that is pretty much made for that purpose.  It also never settles into my fine lines or makes my look older than I am!  I use mine in the color light on days that I am wearing minimal makeup.  If I am going to have a full face of foundation on then I will use the brightener shade (which is pink).  This also doubles as an all over highlighter.  I will bring it down in a "V" under my eyes, on my forehead, and my nose.  It all depends on the day.  It blends in very nicely using my fingers or a beauty blender.  I love this product and fully recommend it to everyone.  As long as they have a color to match your skin I think it would work for anyone.
