Winter repair team

Colder months mean dry skin and to prevent that from happening here are my 4 top products I use:

1. Holiday Berry Cream - Beyond Belief 

I walked in to Sally's Beauty Supply just to browse and by the cashier there was this hand cream...for 2$. I couldn't say no to it! It smells like Christmas, and festivity and the holidays. It’s a great little moisturizer and surprising since it was only 2 bucks.

2. Vaseline 

I saw a pin on Pinterest about 13 ways to use Vaseline so I wanted to get the mini tub. Surprisingly there's not an actual difference I could find between the lip therapy and the original. I ended up getting the small one and I've been using it a lot, especially around the sides of my mouth/lip area. 

3. Ultra Repair Cream - First Aid Beauty 

Best moisturizer! Its semi thick I would say and it sinks nicely into the sink without the feeling of it drying out too fast.

4. Blistex 

My dry lip go-to saviour! I wear matte lipsticks all the time so sometimes my lips tend to turn on me. Whenever they are cracked or extra dry I turn to this to make them better and healed.

 Any go-to products you use?

Random Favorites #1

1. First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream
I was going to Sephora to buy this cream full size then I realized that this was an 100 point perk so I basically got this sample size but didn't end up buying the full size. I do think that I'll eventually buy the full size because this is so moisturizing and makes my skin feel so quenched!

2. NARS Blush in Desire
I've had this blush for a year now and its the absolute best color for summer! It does look a bit scary because it is such a bright pink but it gives a lovely flush to my cheeks and I think it would look exceptional on olivey skin tones.

3.No Dark Shadows Complexion Enhancer
My friend gave this to me after she felt like this did nothing for her, so trying this out I didn't expect anything. After using it for about 3 weeks I actually really like it. I saw it in the drugstore for 20 dollars - do I think it's worth 20 dollars? No, but would I be tempted to purchase it? Yes. It's like a brightener but with more coverage. It's not a product that I would gravitate towards but I do like it a lot.

4. FriXion ball point clicker 
This erasable pen is amazing. A little pricey for a pen but oh my goodness its so amazing. I'm someone who loves stationary and when I find a good pen, it's like one of the best feelings. This pen is amazing.

5. American Apparel Neon Nail Lacquer in Neon Violet
I think AA nail polish is amazing. It is really opaque and they are a total bang for your buck. I think this gives you product then an OPI polish and they are a couple dollars cheaper too! And the always have deals going on (bogo and such). This polish dries semi matte and I just love the color! It screams summer.

6. NYLON Magazine
I have always had a love for Nylon's and I've debated several times whether I should renew my subscription or not, and I always do! It's just a great magazine that's more culture and society based compared to FASHION or Seventeen. Know what I mean? Give it a go if you've never read one. The interviews are amazing!

What have been some of your random favorites?

OJ!

I've seriously had some mad love for my Nars eyeshadow duo in Mediterranean. I have been obsessed with orange juice ever since Spring started, and I obviously had to incorporate the color into my makeup. I placed the orange color on my lid then took a medium warm brown and blended that in the crease. Added a little brown liner and smudged that out and topped off the look by taking the So Chaud by MAC lipstick and dabbed that on  my lips for just a Hint of Orange.

I don't think I've every really liked the color orange but its seriously flattering for a summer time look. Let me know what you think!

What colors are you gravitating towards in your Summer time makeup?
