It's here. You've all been waiting for it. All of you that message me out of the blue and ask what makeup I use. All will be revealed shortly. Are you ready? It's time. Kayla's Ride or Die Makeup Tag.

Basically this tag is choosing one product from each category that you can't live without, or that is your favorite. I'll also include a mini review and price for those interested. Some of these I don't currently use because they are expensive and I'm trying to eat and stuff, but these are all of my favorites. Who's ready to rumble?

Foundation

Kat Von D Lock it Foundation

35.00, only at Sephora

This foundation changed the game for me. Completely full coverage, transfer proof, stays on all day. It is a really thick formula, which I can understand some people not liking as it can feel heavy on the skin, but I personally like knowing my foundation isn't going anywhere. If you have dry skin or wrinkles this foundation is not for you, as it will cling to these features. A little goes a long way, one bottle lasts me about 3 or 4 months. I recommended this foundation to my roommate last year and she summed it up the best: "I can't go back!" I haven't been able to afford this foundation in a while but when I get some funds it is going back in my makeup drawer!

Primer

Nivea Men's Post Shave Balm in Sensitive

6.49, found in most drug stores

Nikkie Tutorials introduced this one to the world. It's cheap, it's effective, it smells nice, and did I mention IT'S CHEAP! This unconventional product has worked better for me then some 30 dollar primers, and a little goes a long way as primer so the bottle will last you a while.

Concealer

Naked Skin Weightless Complete Coverage Concealer

28.00

There will never be a concealer like this one. It is full coverage but still has a light formula. It blends like a dream with a beauty blender and I've never had problems with it creasing, even when I wear it without powder. I use concealer to cover my under eyes and problem spots, but also to highlight my face. This does a great job at both. It costs a pretty penny for sure, and a tube doesn't last long for me as I slather it on my face like no one's business. If you are willing to fork out a little money for a quality concealer, this one is for you.

Face Powder

Bare Minerals Bare Skin Powder

28.00

I found this laying around the house and forgot I had it, but now I use it every day as a powder over my foundation. With a big fluffy brush it applies beautifully to give a nice finish to any foundation. I am almost out and I'm open to trying a new face powder as I really haven't explored the market with this category.

Blush

Too Faced Love Flush Everlasting Blush in I Will Always Love You

26.00

This color looks a little out there, but on pale skin tones like mine it gives a beautiful, subtle flush that blends well with a contour. It is very pigmented, so try not to get too much on your brush to avoid looking like a party clown. I have the mini version of this blush that came with the Nikkie Tutorials collaboration and I adore it.

Bronzer

Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer


30.00

This bronzer is incredible. It's light and blends nicely to prevent an embarrassing contour, and is also nice if you just want to add a little color around your cheekbones and temples. If you want a darker contour you can build it up easily. The best part? It smells and tastes like chocolate. Mmm.

Highlighter

Colourpop Super Shock Cheek in "Smoke N' Whistles"

8.00

Colourpop's highlighter is an interesting creme formula. When I first swatched it I thought of a puppy's nose, it's so soft and smooth. If you put too much on it might be seen as greasy, but I've never had that problem. You can apply this with your fingers for an intense highlight or a brush for a more subtle one. The best part? It's insanely cheap.

Mascara

Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara

22.00

To put it simply- this mascara gets the job done. It has a huge wand that adds tremendous volume and length to my tiny lashes. It stays on longer than anything else on my face.

Lipstick

Colourpop Lippie Stix in "Poison"

5.00

YOU READ THAT RIGHT! FIVE DOLLARS! Colourpop is the love of my life and I LOVE their lippie stix. Super pigmented, stays on relatively well. It is not transfer or kiss proof, but reapplying isn't a huge deal because it is quite moisturizing. The only thing I don't like is the smell. It is similar to a crayola crayon with a strong vanilla scent in an attempt to mask it.

Liquid Lip

Colourpop Liquid Lip in "Trap"

6.00

SIX FRIGGIN DOLLARS! FOR A NICE LIQUID LIP! Rumour has it that Colourpop liquid lips are the same formula has Kylie Jenner lip kits, but I can neither confirm or deny. This color is a nice light petal pink that is a nice touch to a dramatic eye or a subtle lip for a natural look. The formula is not drying and lasts all day. I am a Colourpop fanatic!

Eyeshadow Palette

Jeffree Star's Beauty Killer Palette


36.00

I hate to say it, because Jeffree Star is not my favorite person in the world by any means, but this palette is a winner for days. I have never owned eyeshadow that is so unique, PIGMENTED, and long lasting. I'm serious about the pigmentation y'all. I barely have to dip my brush into these HUGE pans. There are so many unique looks i can make with this palette, and I'm never bored with it. I have decided not to buy Jeffree's products any more, but I'm gonna use this till it runs out.


There you have it! Comment down below your favorites or if you disagree with any of my picks.

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.
