I love experimenting with various beauty products from different brands, both high end and from the drug store. Experimenting helps me determine what I should spend my money on and what I shouldn't. I thought I would share my favorite beauty products in the month of March and give a short review about them. I hope everyone enjoys this beauty review and hopefully you guys will go out and by these products as well.

1. The Masquerade Palette by Juvia's Place

This palette retails for $35, but if you want to save some money you can get the mini version of the palette for $25. This palette is amazing because of its high pigment shadows and the various colors in the palette; allowing for a balance of bolds and neutrals. This palette can be used to make very bright eye looks, smokey eye looks, and everyday basic eye looks. There are a total of 16 shadows in the palette and each shade is inspired by African Festivities filled with enormous joy and spiritual activities. The bold colors represent costumes used in festivals, while the nude and browns represent the African soil and environments.

Row 1 (L to R): Chi, Mali, Dalia, Zola Row 2 (L to R): Makeda, Zobo, Calabar, Bori

Row 3 (L to R): Giza, Burkina, Cairo, Ada Row 4 (L to R): Dahia, Zulu, Casabianca, Fulani

2. L.A. Girl Pro Coverage Foundation

This foundation retails for $10 and offers various shades for every skin tone. This foundation is amazing because it is a full coverage foundation, it lasts for most of the day, and it's an illuminating foundation; which allows for your skin to have a natural glow.

3. NARS Blush

This blush retails for $30, but if you want to save a little bit of money on the product you can become a member of the Sephora rewards program which will give you discounts on various products in the store. There are 26 shades in this blush collection, which means there is a color for everyone and they all have a shimmer finish. My favorite blush shade is Goulue and it is a warm berry shade with gold shimmer.

4. Benefit They're Real Mascara

This mascara retails for $24 and is one out of many Benefit mascara products. This is my most used mascara because it provides length and volume to your lashes while still making them look natural.

5. Wet N Wild MegaLast Liquid Catsuit Matte Lipstick

This matte lipstick retails for $4.99 and offers 13 different shades of lipstick ranging from nudes to vampire reds. The reason I love this lipstick is because it is long lasting, it doesn't transfer on other surfaces, and its very smooth when applying it on the lips. My favorite shade is Give Me Mocha, which is the 6th shade of nudes and the reason I love this shade is because it's the perfect nude for my skin tone and it's a dark nude.

I hope you guys enjoyed this article and that you will purchase one or all of these products mentioned in my monthly beauty favorites.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
