Here are seven fantastic beauty products I've been loving for the past month. Give them all a try, and let me know how they work for you, or even how they don't work for you!
1. Tanya Burr's 'Berry Pavlova' Lip-Gloss (Limited Edition, from her Advent Calendar)
This gloss is very pigmented in a light bright red shade. It's a thick gloss with a beautiful shine.
2. Maybelline Instant Age-Rewind Concealer
I've been looking for a good full coverage concealer for as long as I can remember, and just this month I discovered Maybelline's true gift to the world: Their Instant Age Rewind Concealer. (HUGE THANKS to NikkieTutorials for the heads up on this one!) I can't image another full face makeup day without this gem.
3. Drew Barrymore's FLOWER Foundation
After dropping approximately $14 on this foundation at Wal-Mart, I was nervous for the results. I've used it a few times now, and it's definitely a foundation more for dry skin if that's what you're looking for. The coverage is pretty good, as well. It feels moisturizing on your face, like a creamy lotion. I picked it up in the lightest shade available, and it's been doing wonders for my daily routine.
4. e.l.f. Cosmetics Under-Eye Concealer and Highlighter
In addition to the magic that Maybelline's concealer has been working for me, I'm falling in love with e.l.f.'s under-eye concealer and highlighter, which I've also been using in the lightest shade available. It's easy to apply and comfortable to wear.
5. ColourPop Super Cheek Shock Highlighter in HighlyWaisted
I bought this highlighter over the summer when I was much tanner, and I didn't use it very much until recently. It looks amazing when used with Merle Norman's Bronzing Powder (Sunny Side) and Benefit Cosmetics Watts Up Highlighter. This highlighter is shimmery, glittery and all things fun and pretty.
6. Merle Norman Bronzing Powder in Sunny Side
I'm not ashamed to admit that bronzer terrifies me, but I've found a keeper in this bronzing powder by Merle Norman. It's the only one I'm comfortably using on the daily. In the summer it adds to already sun-kissed skin, and in the winter it helps add extra dashes of warmth to your face.
7. ColourPop Matte Liquid Lipstick in Beeper
This matte lip looks amazing with just about any look you're going for. It can be softened to be girly, or with a fierce cat-eye can make you look like a total baddie (Kylie Jenner, we're taking cues from you with these muted lips!)
So there you have it, seven beauty products I've been known to love. Let me know some of your favorites, or special go-tos by commenting and sharing. In addition, I own all products mentioned above. If you'd like swatches on any of the products, please don't hesitate to let me know!
