Life is Short. Buy the Makeup.

It's time for empties again! I have quite a few this time, many of them deluxe sample sizes. I've been trying many new skincare items and using up some staple items in my routine.  Let's get in to what items I would and would not re-purchase. Here are my thoughts and mini reviews! 

Makeup & Beauty Favorites! I have used up quite a few beauty products in the last month, mostly due to the harsh cold weather outside. I love cleaning, so finally recycling these products that I've been keeping feels great! So before I start to babble, let's get into some makeup and beauty products I have used up!

2014 Makeup & Beauty Favorites This year has flown by, and I for one am actually glad, because that means I can tell you all about the makeup and beauty favorites I have loved this year! Since starting to work at Ulta this past year, I've been able to try quite a few new things! Here we go!  Let's starting with the non-makeup! Algenist Complete Eye Renewal Balm I received this little beauty from work and have been absolutely in love with it this month! I never realized how dehydrated my eye area was until I started using this twice a day. The fine lines are less prominent and my concealer applies much easier and looks more natural under my eye. If you're in the market for a hydrating eye cream that helps with anti-aging, save up and get this one! This retails for  $65  at  Ulta  and  Sephora . Algenist Complete Eye Renewal Balm Neutrogena Naturals Fresh Cleansing + Makeup Remover I've been on...

I've gone through many makeup and beauty products in the last few months so I thought I would give you guys a mini review on each of these products! Here are my Makeup & Beauty Product Empties for the month of October ! NYX HD Concealer Often the holy grail drugstore concealer, I found that this concealer emphasized the fine lines underneath my eyes. I used this shade as a facial highlighter on my fair skin, and it looked great. But for under the eyes, it didn't look right. So if you don't have fine lines, maybe this will work for you. This retails for $4.99 at Ulta, Target, and nyxcosmetics.com . Will re-purchase in the "Lavender" shade but only for the face. Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Dark Circle Concealer in "Brightener" One of the few under eye brighteners at the drugstore, I really liked this concealer. It helped lessen the look of the darkness underneath my eyes. If you have severe under eye darkness, this may n...

This is my first beauty monthly favorites post and I'm so excited to show you guys what I've been loving for the month of July! This is a popular video on Youtube, I hope to keep doing these monthly favorites every month from now on. Let's get started. Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Lip Moisturizer SPF 15   I picked this lip balm up at Ulta for $2.99. I needed a new lip balm with SPF for the summer and I must say I am in love with it! Its very moisturizing and creamy on the lips and doesn't leave that nasty white line around my inner lips that most lip products do. It has a very faint scent that isn't noticeable on the lips. It's completely clear when applied to the lips. And it's paraben-free! Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess Luminous Liquid Bronzer I purchased this at the beginning of summer thinking it would add a nice bronzed effect to the skin when I wasn't wearing makeup. I don't find it bronzes my skin too much, but I do mi...
