2. Too Faced Naked Eye Soft & Sexy Eyeshadow Palette - I wear this palette almost every day. I'm usually not very bold with my makeup, and this palette is perfect for a person like myself. There are a few matte colors, some shimmer. You can use one of the colors as a bronze-ish highlight. It even has risque names for the shadows, such as "In The Buff" and "Birthday Suit" So fabulous.
3. Nivea Radiant Lip Care Stick in 'A Kiss of Shimmer' - I wear this almost everyday. I am the biggest fan of pink/nude lip and this product is perfect. Its really soft, has SPF protection, and smells good. Its pretty creamy so its my go-to when I'm wearing my hair down and it's windy outside. Lipgloss sticking in my hair is not something I'm a fan of.
4. Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes - if you don't wash your makeup off daily, please start. I cringe when my friends tell me they don't wash their faces. Gross! These are perfect for those nights (or mornings...) where taking your makeup off feels like too much effort. Just pull a towelette out, sweep it across your face and you're done. Its the best remover for mascara that I've found as well. I recommend keeping the package in a plastic sandwich baggy because the adhesive isn't the best thing to keep it closed and there have been instances where all of my towelettes dried out.
5. Almond Body Butter from The Body Shop - this stuff sinks in to your skin and moisturizes for 24 hours. I usually lather up on it after I've showered and am going to bed. I don't even need to put on lotion in the morning!
6. They're Real! Mascara by Benefit - I don't think this product makes your lashes look fake. It provides tremendous volume and length. It doesn't flake, totally lasts all day, and is ridiculously hard to get off. Buuuuut if you use the Neutrogena towelettes, you'll be fine ;]
7. Almay Liquid Eyeliner in Black - Hypoallergenic and lasts all day. Doesn't flake. Contact lenses safe. I've been using this since I was 14 and first started wearing eyeliner. I'll never go to anything else.
8. Too Faced Shadow Insurance - I love eyeshadow primer! This tube is kinda pricy, but it lasts a long time. You really only need a teeny bit on each lid. Your eyeshadow will look fresh for like 16 hours. I can usually pull off wearing the same makeup I put on in the morning when I go out at night and it looks the just as good! Magic!
9. Evian Facial Mist - you can put this on before doing your face makeup for a dewy look. I went to the beach every week over the summer and my face felt so sticky after being in the humidity for so long. This mist was quickly refreshing. I've also used this mist on my shirt when I spilled a beverage on myself and it helped. haha.
10. Honey beeswax from The Body Shop - I am a woman of mixed race. The only real ethnic feature about me is my HAIR. I have the nappiest, fly away-est, coursest, thickest, jfdalfjkdjafhalk, hair EVER. This stuff will glue down the annoyingness that will always stick up no matter if my hair is relaxed or how much hair spray I've put in it. Nothing compares.
You made me actually want to get some of these items. I've read a bunch of articles on beauty products and haven't even batted an eye at them. I never even realized that there was such a thing as eyeshadow primer haha but now I want it.
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful! I'll try and write reviews more often when I discover products I can't live without :]
