My Updated Makeup Essentials

Hello My Fellow Makeup Lovers!

I miss the life of being a Makeup Artist.... I remember carrying my makeup kit everywhere, rushing to photo shoots, meeting new people, and attending fashion shows. I am not even sure how I even did all of that as a hobby.... but it was fun while it lasted.

It feels like years since I last touched my makeup kit. Heck, I hardly even put on makeup anymore and if I do, I keep it to a minimal. Just playing with my makeup recently brought back a lot of memories.

Here are some of my favorite products and the products that I used to create the look I have below:
Laneige White Star Essence- face moisturizer (plus I use a light SPF underneath the moisturizer)
Spackle by Laura Geller- Tinted under make-up primer (As you can tell, I have used up a lot)

Neutrogena Makeup Remover

Maybelline Fit Me foundation (May cause breakout for some people)

Maybelline eyeshadow quad in Modern Metallic

NYC- Sunny bronzer

Maybelline Age Rewind concealer 

L'Oreal True Match setting powder

Victoria's Secret Sheer Blush Creme

Urban Decay Flushed

Rimmel eyebrow pencil in #2 shade
Ardell brow sculpting gel

Buxom in the shade Swinger

Maybelline Master Drama in Midnight Master (to create the wing)

Most people ask me how do I keep my skin looking so healthy.... drink lots of water and wear SPF!!!

Until next time,

stay healthy, beautiful, and inspired.

Have a great night!

OOTD: Lazy day outfit

Hello Everyone,

First, prayers go out to the families who are impacted by 9/11.

I have been sick for a few days now and I hardly ever get sick. I even forgot how horrible it feels to be sick. Constantly coughing, having a running nose, and not getting enough sleep is not the business.  But it does feel good to have someone there to take care of you, not gonna lie.

I am getting better, but along with being sick, it comes with many lazy days where I just don't even care how I look. Lazy day outfits are great to wear at home where you can just mix and match anything you want.

What I have on is a simple T-shirt ("Smile for the Camera") from Alloy.com, Snowflake shorts from Victoria's Secret, and knee high sock slippers from Victoria's Secret.
It is a mixed of summer and winter wear, but who really cares as long as I am comfortable.

Favorite song at the moment: Drake- Hold on We're Going Home

Until next time,
stay healthy, beautiful, and inspired.

Have a great night!
