Holy Grail Foundations!

hello darlings! I have missed you so much! I feel like it has been years since we talked and I am so happy to be back! I have been keeping super busy with work and school and my hubby and I just moved into a new apartment and it has been a really crazy last few weeks! Anyways, today I am doing a post that was requested to me quite a while ago and I am finally getting around to it.

If you follow my instagram, then you have probably noticed that i purchase new makeup...a lot. Like all the time. It's actually kind of ridiculous. But, this is a benefit to you because I have tried SO many drugstore face products that I'm sure I've found the best ones out there. So today i am going to be sharing with you my HG(Holy Grail) drugstore foundations! I have a few different ones because they all have different coverage levels i.e. light, medium, and full. I'll be sure to tell you the claims made by each foundation and how it does (and does not live up to them). I will also talk about the staying power of the foundation, the finish, and the price. Hopefully if you are in the market for a new foundation or are unsure of a new one to try, this will help you! So lets go ahead and dive right it.

Revlon Nearly Naked liquid foundation:
This foundation is my HG light coverage foundation. Revlon is typically my go-to brand when it comes to makeup products because I just LOVE so much of their stuff. This foundation is one of my favorites! I love how light and fresh it feels on the skin. Here are the claims that Revlon makes about this foundation: "makeup so refreshingly light, it melts right in, creating a fresh even look. So the only one that knows you're wearing makeup is you. Blends seamlessly, buildable coverage". I have seen this foundation retail for anywhere between $6.99-$9.99 USD. I believe I got mine for $8 at Target, which is a pretty standard price for a drugstore foundation. I like the packaging a lot, however it doesn't have a pump which is kind of annoying. The coverage is very light and it's like a "your skin but better" type thing. There is also a Nearly naked powder foundation that can be used to set the foundation. If you have a lot of things that you're trying to cover on your face, this one isn't for you. I have combination skin and while my skin stay pretty clear, I do get the occasional breakout, and when that happens, I don't really reach for this foundation. It does even redness well, but it does not cover blemishes well at all. The only claim I found that this foundation did not live up to was the supposed "buildable coverage". The coverage really isn't that buildable...you may be able to get a sorta medium coverage but it's just very light. The makeup does stay on my face all day and it is smooth and blends in really well. It leaves a nice subtle dewy finish (if you prefer matte, you can easily set it with a mattifying powder, my fave is the Rimmel Stay Matte) and it looks very natural. This is a great foundation for Summer. It provides more coverage than a tinted moisturiser, but it is much more lightweight than other foundations.

CoverGirl Clean Whipped Creme Foundation:
This is my favorite medium coverage foundation! The coverage is also buildable just an FYI so this foundation can also be used to have a bit heavier coverage and it won't look cakey as long as you don't just go crazy and use too much. This foundation claims: "a lightweight air whipped formula instantly hydrates, 100% smooth natural look, won't clog pores or dry skin". I was obsessed with this foundation as soon as I picked it up. I like the packaging and it smells really good (like cherries or something). It definitely lives up to the claims it makes, and i was pleasantly surprised because I normally don't like covergirl face products at all. I picked this up at Walgreens for about $7. The consistency is very smooth and creamy and it dries to a soft almost powder like texture. It leaves a nice soft matte finish, yet still looks very natural. However, if you have VERY oily skin, I don't think that this foundation will work well for you. I get a little bit oily around my nose and it did wear off there towards the end of the day. I feel that if your skin is oily all the time, this would probably slide off of you and you should try a foundation specifically suited for oily skin. This foundation did last me all day, but sometimes on very hot humid days, I had to blot off some oil and set it again with a small amount of powder. That doesn't really bother me though because I almost always expect to have to do some touch ups since I have a bad habit of touching my face a lot. Also, if you have very dry skin, I absolutely recommend using this because it is very hydrating to me. However, you should make sure to exfoliate and moisturize your skin well so it won't cake up in the flaky patches.

Revlon ColorStay Foundation for Combination/Oily Skin:
Alright, so not only is this my holy grail full coverage foundation, this is pretty much my favorite foundation of all time. It claims: "wears up to 24 hours, longwearing coverage with a lightweight formula that won't cake, fade, or rub off. With Time Release Technology specifically formulated for combination or oily skin to control oil absorption and shine. Your look stays flawless throughout the day." Ohh man does this stuff deliver. It last ALL day for me. Even when I'm at work for 13 hours (I work at KFC...it's hot, there's steam and grease everywhere and I'm sweating...this stuff pulls through!). One of the best things about this foundation is that you can use a little bit to get medium coverage or use it to really cover up blemishes and stuff. I have also mixed this with my fave moisturizer and used it as a tinted moisturizer that is long lasting! It is also great because there is also a version for Normal/Dry skin types! Both have the special "time release technology" that either helps control shine, or help hydrate the skin depending on which version you get. I got this at Target for $9 I believe and I love it. The foundation leaves a natural finish that is the perfect mix of matte and dewy. It looks so fresh and nice. My face doesn't look flat or shiny. 

Here's my whole foundation collection(minus the Nearly Naked that I just ran out of!) Want me to review any of these? Let me know in the comment box! 

Do you have a HG foundation that I need to try? Let me know in a comment or leave a comment on any pic on my instagram and I'll check it out! Please let me know what other kinds of reviews/post you guys wanna see! I will hopefully be able to post a few more today so stay tuned! i love you guys! Thank you for all your continued support!

Beauty Tag: Colors of the Rainbow!!

Alrighty, I've been noticing this tag circulate a lot lately and I decided that I would finally jump on this bandwagon. I had been tagged by a few people...I don't remember who they were though, so sorry. For those who tagged me, thanks so much! If you don't already know, the point to this tag is to list your favorites based on their color..(i.e. red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet) and two colors have been added, pink and multi color. Anyways, here we go!

Red:

My number one favorite red-lipstick (it's actually tied with NYX Snow White). This is maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Red Revival. It looks good with just about any skin tone and these lipsticks are super smooth and creamy and they last for hours on my lips (as long as I don't eat) I've gone through 2 tubes of this lipstick and it's a staple in my makeup collection!

Orange: 

Maybelline Baby Lips in Cherry Me. The product itself isn't orange, but the package is and I love this! It smells just like cherry sweet tarts and its a pretty color and really moisturizes my lips! Perfect for spring and Summer.

Yellow:

EOS lip balm sphere in Lemon Drop! I love this!!! EOS balms are amazing and this one is my favorite of all of them. It smells just like the lemon drop candy and it also has SPF 15 in it! Super moisturizing and the packaging is really cute! I also love that it's 98% organic and all natural!

Green:

CoverGirl Clump Crusher by LashBlast! This is one of my favorite mascaras. It definitely doesn't clump and I can put on one or two coats for a simple look, or I can pile it on for super dramatic lashes. Either way, no clumps or spider lashes.

Blue:

Essie Bouncer, It's Me. I love this beautiful blue color. The picture does not do it justice! Plus, it's by Essie! Yay! 

Indigo:

The closest item I have to indigo is my L'oreal nail polish in Berry Nice. It's really closer to purple than indigo, but like I said, this is the closest that I have :)

Violet:

SMASHBOX Photo Finish Color Correcting "Balance" Primer. I love this lavender primer. It really helps keep my makeup on and it also balances out the redness in my skin. *Just an FYI: in case you don't already know, Monistat Chafing Gel is the BEST primer out there. it have the SAME active ingredients as SMASHBOX primers at a FRACTION of the cost*

Pink:

YesTo Grapefruit Correct & Repair Daily Facial Scrub! I absolutely ADORE YesTo products. And this scrub is one of my faves from the brand! It gently exfoliates and helps keep skin radiant while it brightens--naturally! No parabens, SLS, or petroleum!

Multi Color:

Last but certainly not least, my Glam To Go pocket palette! It has 9 eyeshadows (ALL SO GORGEOUS!) 4 cheek colors(also beautiful) and 9 lip colors! (again, so pretty)! When I saw the word "Multicolor" this is the first thing that came to mind! I love every single color in it!

May Favorites!

 Hello dolls! Sorry for the lack of posting! I went out of town a few weeks ago and I started working more plus I'm taking an online class. I haven't been left with much free time! Anyways, I will be posting SEVERAL times today so be sure to check those out too! :)

So I wanna talk about my May favorites real quick! I bought all of these products but one in May. One of them I actually bought a couple months ago, but it was neglected until May! Anyways, here we go:

1) CoverGirl Clean Whipped Creme Foundation: I never used to be a big fan of covergirl, especially their foundation products. However, after I tried the Stay Fabulous 3-in- one foundation, my attitude totally changed! This was released very recently (early May) and as soon as I heard about it, I knew I had to pick it up! This foundation is light and creamy and it is now my ALL TIME favorite foundation. It provides medium to full coverage and leaves my skin with a practically flawless airbrushed finish. 

2) NYX Butter Gloss: I purchased 3 of these and I like them all! My favorite one so far is "Apple Streusel". It's a pretty peachy pink color. What I love about these is that they're not sticky AT ALL. I usually hate lipgloss because my hair get stuck in it and it's just gross to me. That doesn't happen with these butter glosses! They melt into my lips and give the perfect amount of color and shine. These come in a variety of colors too so everyone can find colors that work with their skin tone :) 

3) NYC Applelicious Glossy Balm: I have almost every color of these lip balms, and I love every one of them! This May I have been using "Big Apple Red" mainly because I received it in my Spring Fever VoxBox! All of these colors are beautiful and they are soooo moisturizing. They're perfect for Summer because they glide on smoothly and feel light and creamy on the lips! Everyone needs one (or all!) of these. 

4) CoverGirl Flamed Out Mascara: This mascara seriously rocks. The only thing I don't love is that the opening in the top is pretty big which mean air get in the tube faster. But, this mascara definitely adds massive volume and good separation. I also didn't have any problems with it flaking off, which is great! 

5) ELF Baked Blush in "Peachy Cheeky": It had been a long time since I'd bought any elf products. I had a 50% off coupon code for all studio products so I decided to try them again. I am SO impressed with this blush! It lasts all day and is the perfect peach color for summer! It's highly pigmented and, not only does it add the perfect flush of color, it also highlights my cheeks! This is one of my all time favorite blushed and I plan on getting the other shades as well!

6) Wet n Wild Fergie Collection Shimmer palette: I love using this highlighter! It is a lot like NARS Albatross only it is slightly pinker. I bought this awhile back and loved it, but I was neglecting it! I started using it daily again and I am still obsessed. 

7) Bath and Body Works Rome Honeysuckle Amore body spray: This stuff is from the new Italy inspired collection and I LOVE IT. It smells very sweet and it's the perfect summer scent for daytime wear. 

Well, those are my favorite products for May! Everyone should go try them :) be sure to check out my instagram and pinterest! Also, don't forget to visit my tab "All Time Favorites" to check out the best drugstore products I've found so far! 

Influenster Spring Fever VoxBox!

Alright, so I am super excited about this post! I received my VERY FIRST influenster voxbox a couple days ago, and so far I am LOVING it!! So I'm going to show you guys what was in the box and basically give my first impression with each product and the box itself! 

To begin, if you don't know what influenster is, today is your lucky day! Influenster is a free (yup! 100% FREE) website that ANYONE can join. The goal is to basically unlock badges and improve your score. You have an unlimited amount of "Lifestyle badges" (i.e. dog owner, cat owner, mother, college, bride-to-be, reader, etc.) and you also can unlock 5 "Expert Badges" these badges are the ones that are your interests/ what you know most about (i.e. Beauty queen, fashionista, decorator, sweet tooth, foodie, ect.)

Okay, so this is what the box looks like, and I was really impressed when I opened it! Everything was nicely put together, and I was expecting little sample size things, but everything was full size! Awesome. Who doesn't love free goodies?? On to the products!

• Secret Outlast Clear Gel Antiperspirant/Deodorant: Leaves fewer white marks on clothes than the next leading invisible solid! Also has up to 48 hours of wetness protection! Retails for $4.59 
• I've been using this for a couple days and I love it! No white marks or little clumps of deodorant under my arms. The scent is light and fresh and it seems to work very well!
• NYC New York Color Applelicious Glossy Lip Balm: delivers color, shine and moisture in one swipe! The unique apple-shaped core is filled with shea butter, jojoba oil, vitamin E, and avocado oil to give lips a healthy irresistible look. Retails for $2.99
• I was SO excited to see this in the box! I already own 3 other colors of this stuff and I love them all! They offer great color and shine and do an awesome job of moisturizing my lips. They also smell JUST like fresh apple! Mmm. :) These are my favorite tinted-balms for spring and summer! 
• Broadway Nails imPRESS Press-On Manicure: features advanced nail technology so you can get a salon-perfect manicure in seconds - simply peel off, press on, and you're done. No drying, no glue, and a killer shine! Manicure lasts for up to a week. Retails for $5.99-$7.99
• I have tried these before and I like them. I have only gotten them to last a couple days, but for me that's the best option. We can't have painted or fake nails where I work so these are GREAT to use when I'm going to a wedding or something. They come in lots of great colors and designs. And the best part is that they're easy to apply and you can cut and file them. 
• Schwarzkopf Professional OSIS+ Dust It: multi purpose mattifying powder that adds texture, incredible root lift, and control. Retails for $23.50
• This stuff worked really well for volumizing my hair. I don't really love the mattifying feature; I like my hair to be shiny. I also feel it would be better for people with short hair. However, I think that it will be great to use as a sort-of dry shampoo for when my hair is oily but I don't have time to shower in the morning. Overall it's a great product! There was also a $5 off coupon for any OSIS+ product in the box so I might use that to get some of their Rough Rubber for Sean :)
• TastyKake Kandy Bar Kakes: light and fluffy chocolate enrobed cakes with a delicious creme filling in a unique kandy bar shape. Available in S'mores, Peppermint, and Peanut Butter! Retails for $4.50 per box
• I got the peanut butter one and it says its made with Reese's peanut butter. It was soo yummy!! I wish I knew where to find these! 

I really think everyone needs to join this site! Seriously. Do it!! <3

Disclosure: I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes*

April Favorites!

Alright, so this is a tad late, but oh well! :) Here are my favorite products for the month of April!

Face:

• CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous Foundation: This offers great coverage for me. I don't have much of a problem with acne, but I do have some mild acne scars and dark spots around my cheeks and jaw. This stuff has some serious lasting power. I still use primer with it though. Also is pretty much a perfect match to my skin tone. *I have combination skin, I don't know how this would do on oily skin* I give this a 5/5!
• Physicians Formula Happy Booster Blush(natural) and Bronzer(light): these claim to help boost your mood with the use of special fragrances and such. They do smell really good and I have been using these every single day since I got them. As far as boosting mood...I don't know, but they give my skin the perfect glow, and that really is something to smile about!! I give these a 5/5!
• NYX Illuminating Powder: Love. This. Stuff. It is awesome! I recently purchased a ton of stuff from NYX because I wanted to see how good it really is and I was not at all disappointed. This highlighter is called "Narcissistic" and it's kinda a dupe for NARS Albatross (*NOT A PERFECT DUPE* it's SLIGHTLY more peachy the picture is in bad light so it looks darker than what it is, but it close enough for me!!) This stuff goes on smooth and wonderful. I reach for this everyday, and it stays all day! 5/5 for this baby! 

NYX "Narcissistic" 

Eyes:

• Essence Eyebrow Designer Pencil: I like this product a lot. It was only $1 at Ulta, which is basically a steal. That being said, obviously, when you get a really cheap product, you have to be cautious because you could waste a few bucks on crappy makeup. This pencil is easy to use and it goes on smooth and natural. The only complaint I have is that, while it usually lasts all day, sometimes it would rub off a bit and I would have like black streaks on my forehead and stuff. Not cute. It works really well for now, but I'm not sure how it will hold up in the hot, humid Summer... I give this a 4/5
• Maybelline The Rocket Mascara: This has been my favorite mascara for the past few months actually. I think it's pretty much perfect! I like my lashes to be big and bold with TONS of volume, and this stuff really pumps up the volume without clumping. I've heard some have a problem with it flaking slightly, but that has never happened to me. The only complaint I do have, is that it is SOO hard to remove... Like ridiculously hard. One time I had like 3 coats of this on, that night, I took my eye makeup off with eye makeup remover, took a shower, washed my face TWICE and there was STILL a lot of mascara left under my eyes, on my lids, AND on the lashes themselves. I've tried several makeup removes and none of them seem to get it all off...it's really pretty annoying. For that reason, I give this a 4/5.

Lips: 

• Revlon Super Lustrous LIpsticks in "Raspberry Bite" and "Temptress": I ordered both of these on Amazon, and I think both of them are discontinued. if you don't have these yet, FIND THEM! I love revlon lippies and these colors are pretty much to die for. 5/5 :)

Nails:

• Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Nail Polish in "Mint Sorbet": LOVE this pretty minty color for spring :) A lot of "mint" polishes are more teal-ish color and, for me, this mint is a true mint color. Love it!And the polish has great lasting power too! Just don't forget to use a top coat or it does chip like crazy. 4/5 :)

Hair and Body:

• Bath and Body Works Honey Sweetheart: It's glittery and it smells heavenly! What's not to love?? 5/5!!
• Got 2 B Smooth Operator: This stuff makes my hair SOO soft and easy to work with. Lots of heat and processing has made my hair pretty brittle and this product has help tremendously! Be careful not to use too much though! It'll make your hair greasy if you do. A little goes a long way :) 4/5

Beauty Swap!!

Alright, let me start off by saying that I am SOO SORRY that I haven't been posting lately. I've been really sick and just CRAZY busy with school and getting ready for finals and what not. Anyways, All I have left is to take my finals and I'm done!! Woohoo!!

For those of you who have never done a beauty swap, or don't know what a beauty swap is,  a beauty swap is basically when you find a swap buddy, you set a budget and talk about things you want to try, things you like and don't like, etc. Then you buy makeup and beauty products for the other person and ship them off to each other! It's SOOO much fun and EVERYONE should do it sometime!

This is a paricular swap that I did with the lovely Angie :) be sure to follow her instagram and check out her blog!

Not only is she a beauty blogger, she ALSO does Extreme Couponing, and if you wanna learn, shes always happy to help point you in the right direction!! She is such a sweet girl. Now, ON TO THE MAKEUP. <3

Oh. My. Gosh. You can't even imagine how excited I was when I got to open all of this!! I was like a kid on Christmas!! I swear, it's like this girl stepped into my brain and got me everything I wanted!! It's all just SO beautiful <3

1) Glam ToGo Pallete: Has 9 GORGEOUS eyeshadows, 4 blushes, and 9 lipcolors! Love it!! It's really nice to have this in my purse or car in case I need a quick and easy touchup. Plus, I've found that the shadows and blushes last a long time. and are nicely pigmented.

2) Lumene Day creams (brightening and firming): I've been using these basically everyday since I got them and THEY ARE FABULOUS. I really have seen a difference in my skin.

3) Wet n Wild Fergie collection nailpolishes: She got my "Flossy Flossy" and "Gold Album". They're definitely awesome colors! Not really everyday colors, but PERFECT for parties, concerts, clubbing, etc. And I love them!

4) Maybelline Baby Lips: She got me "Quench". I love all baby lips :) and this one is good for days that you just want your natural lips, but wanna moisturize them.

5) Nivea Kiss of Cherry: LOVE THIS. Nivea is the best, and this tastes and smells yummy and has a very pretty red color.

6) L'Oreal On-The Loose Shimmering Powder: I got 4 of these and they are LOVELY. There's Diva Down(bright blue), Fantasized(light peachy pink), Orb(GOREGOUS silvery brown, and my favorite), and finally, Vintage(bronzy burgundy). I'm so sad that these were discontinued, and may have to search amazon and ebay to get more.

7) Sephora lashes: haven't used these yet because I'm still learning how to apply eyelashes perfectly. They are awesome looking lashes though! And I'm excited to try them!

8) Physicians Formula Happy Booster Bronzer: GREAT bronzer. I've been using this religiously everyday since I got it. It smells heavenly and claims to boost your mood. I don't know if it really makes me happier, but it makes my face look glowy and beautiful so that makes me feel pretty fantastic!! :) I also have a happy booster blush and I love that as well!

9)PF Multi-colored Blush (Blushing Berry): LOVE this blush, physicians formula is basically just amazing.

10) PF Shimmer Strips eyeliners: I got the nude version of these, there are 3 eyeliners (champagne, brown, and black). they are SO nice and creamy and they glide on perfectly. They also last all day and I love them :) they have become a staple for everyday natural looks.

11) PF Shimmer Stps Eyeshadow palette for blue eyes: Pretty colors to compliment my eyes! And long lasting. Gotta love that! PF has these for all eye colors too!

12) PF BB Cream Concealer: I love this product but it was unfortunately too dark for me :( it was even the light/medium one. Idk if they have a regular light one, but if they do, I will definitely buy it! Even though it was a bit too dark, it covered VERY well.

13)PF Concealer stick: one can never have too much concealer :) works really well, and i like to keep it in my car in case I get a surprize pimple or blotchy area.

14) Philosphy the color of grace lipbalm: I got "Pretty Please" and I love it. I've never tried philosophy before this so I was excited that this was in the package. The little compact it comes in is SO cute that I keep it on my vanity tray. It's a nice pale pink color and is very natural. Love this lip product!

15) Urban Decay Lipstick "confession": the packaging is super adorable and the color is a really nice deep purple. I can't wait til fall so I can start wearing this more!!

16) Wet n Wild Matte Lipstick in "Don't Blink Pink": LOVE this color for Spring :) it is a very vibrant pink color! And wet n wild is great because it is pretty cheap and you get GREAT products despite the low prices.

17)The Balm Stainiac Lip and Cheek color in "Beauty Queen": this stuff is AMAZINGGGG. I dont really use it on my cheeks, but on my lips it's perfect. It gives the perfect amount of red color and it's not too sticky after it dries. It also smells sorta like cherry which is nice :)

18)L'Oreal Wear Infinite Eyeliners: I got 4 of these and they are all beautiful :) there's Rich Plum(deep plum), Gold Shimmer(bright yellow-gold), Pebble(bronze taupe MY FAVE), and Mineral(blueish-toned silver). These are so creamy and long lasting. I'm obsessed. I think these were also discontinued, but I plan on buying any and all that I can find!! Seriously, you need these in your life!

Pheewww.. That's a lot of stuff! A special thanks to my friend Angie for doing this swap with me. I hope we can do one VERY soon!!

Recent Purchases!

Alright, so this is like a delightful little mixture between a haul post, and a review!

These are all my most recent purchases that I have made (actually there are a few packages that should arrive soon from Ulta!! Get excited). I went on a mission to get some pretty Spring/Summer makeup and these are some things that I picked up!

Lips:I am absolutely obsessed with lip products. It's actually a bit out of control ;) I have very fair skin, and I really love deep wine and berry colors against my skin tone. During Autumn, the colors look awesome, but they aren't the greatest for Spring and Summer. So I was searching for some pinks, corals, and nudes! I picked up...

1) Revlon Super Lustrous Lipsticks:

    a. 225 Creme "Rosewine"

    b. 423 Creme "Pink Velvet"

    c. 473 Creme "Mauvy Night"

    d. 510 Creme "Berry Rich"

    e. 613 Creme "Just Enough Buff"

    f. 680 Creme "Temptress"

I've always loved Revlon lipsticks and I am super excited about these colors! Rosewine and Mauvy Night will be great in Fall too! Which I love cause it's always best to have colors that are multi-seasonal!  These lipsticks glide on smoothly and last a long time (I always apply primer). I definitely recommend them!

2) Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip Stain. I love these! They're very moisturizing and they smell like  peppermint! There is a great variety of colors and they're SOO pretty. After the "lip balm" rubs off, you're left with a beautifully stained lip. Light and perfect for spring. I picked up...

    a. 005 "Crush"

    b. 025 "Sweetheart"

    c. 045 "Romantic"

    d. 050 "Precious"

3) Misc Lippies: I love all of these! I put them in a misc category because I didn't want to have to post a ton of pics for the swatches. My favorite of all of these is Born With It. It's been my go-to lipstick for the past couple weeks, It's the PERFECT Spring pink for me! Seriously everyone needs it in their life. The color whisper is super pretty too! As for the Kate Moss Rimmel London lippie....HOLY CRAP. I LOVE THIS COLOR!!! It's really more of an Autumn shade, but I just couldn't pass it up. <3

    a. Loreal Colour Riche Lipstick in 550 "Vagabond Mauve"

    b. Rimmel London Kate Matte Finish Collection Lipstick #107

    c. Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in 015 "Born With It"

    d. Maybelline Color Whisper in 55 "One Size Fits Pearl"

Face: 1) St. Ives Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub: I LOVE THIS STUFF. Nothing feels better in Spring than getting that natural glow on your skin after it has dulled from harsh Winter weather. I get dry patches on my skin, and exfoliating my face daily keeps my skin soft and supple. This scrub is AHMAZING because it has all natural exfoliants (ground walnut and corn kernels) and it is made without parabens. Apricots are packed with antioxidants and my faces loves me for using this scrub. St. Ives has many other scrubs like thing for acne prone skin as well as oily skin and dry skin types. TRY IT.

        2) Maybelline The Flash Clean: Clean Express Lotion: I really like this! I wanna try the wipes and regular makeup remover. This is great because it isn't oily, but it also doesn't dry out my skin. It's actually very hydrating, and it removes my makeup very well!

        3) Cover Girl Outlast Stay Fabulous Foundation: I've only used this about 5 times so far, I usually wait til I've finished a bottle of a product to write a good review on it, but I am just LOVING this! It claims to be a primer, concealer, and foundation all in one. I still use primer under it, but the couple times I didn't, it lasted a long time! With the primer (and setting spray) it didn't budge all day! I will definitely repurchase!

        4) NYX Matte Finish Setting Spray: This is my first setting spray, and I really like it. I've read reviews that say it isn't as fine of a mist as other setting sprays, but it seems perfect to me. Must just be a matter of preference. I plan on purchasing the Dewy Finish version very soon!! This bottle of setting spray goes for about $8 and I think is SO worth it.

Nails: Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Polish in 210 "Flirt". Not so much a Spring shade, but it's still very pretty! :) I pretty much love all of the Xtreme Wear polishes! <3  

I've got some GREAT new products coming in very soon! Keep an eye out for some reviews and looks using the new products!! :) Thanks, dolls!!
