My 5 Favorite Beauty Products Of January

For me the end of 2016 and the beginning of 2017 has sprung a new found love for makeup and beauty products. I can't help but spend hours watching the quick makeup tutorials on Instagram and Youtube. After the start of my recent love for beauty products, I have invested in various different products to attempt to have the collection as some of these beauty gurus. Here are my favorite beauty products to date.


The Beauty Blender

Hands down the most essential product in my opinion. Before purchasing this I was applying foundation with my hands, I know, amateur, with this product I am able to blend my foundation and also apply setting powder. The only downside is that it is super absorbent and hence really hard to clean completely.


Bio Oil

This Vitamin E oil helps dry skin, enhance skin tone and texture. It can also help improve the appearance of stretch marks. I also use it as a medium when applying my foundation. The good thing about it is that a little product goes a long way. It's a great moisturizer for nighttime especially in the dry winter weather.

Kylie Cosmetics "Royal Peach Palette"

I've only recently began investing in Kylie's makeup line and I can say that I have been pleasantly surprised. Theres no doubt that she has the money to establish a really decent makeup line however the quality of the products are amazing. I bought the royal peach palette the day that it was released and I was beyond thrilled when I received it and was able to see the amazing pigment for myself.


Colour Pop Ultra Matte Lips

After realizing that if I continued investing in Kylie's makeup that I would be broke quickly. A friend recommended that I try colour pop's matte liquid lip stick. They're inexpensive and are very long lasting. The best part is that they are not over drying. As long as you exfoliate before using the product your lips are good for whatever your night holds.

Moroccan Oil

Now this product isn't a face product but it's definitely an essential beauty product to me. Although priced on the higher end for hair product it is worth every penny. I personally have dry hair and since starting this regiment I am noticing that my hair is holding moisture a lot better than it used too. This is also a product that doesn't need a lot to be effective.


Finding the right products can seem difficult at times. Everyone's skin tone is different therefore different shades look better on different people. I am still trying to see what tones look best on my skin. Hopefully if you are looking for new products to try this will be a good place to start!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
