Makeup Drawer Organization

Now that I've done my everyday natural look , I thought I'd give a look into my makeup drawer organization. This is the drawer that holds everything I would want to use. Things that I always use, things that I'm trying, and others that are just good to have close. All my other makeup is stored away and I just rotate things through this drawer. That way I make sure that I'm trying new products and not buying things that just sit around. All the products used in my everyday natural look are in this drawer except for the foundation. I have been really trying to use a different one, but the Rimmel Match Perfection just always seems to find it's way back into my routine. From left to right: Revlon Age Defying Foundation in 15 Tender Beige, L'Oreal True Match Concealer Crayon in Fair/Light, (hiding underneath) Tarte Inner Rim Liner, YSL Touche Eclat in #2, Benefit the POREfessional, Maybelline Define-a-brow in Light Blonde, (hiding underneath at the bottom) B...

Everyday Natural Full Makeup Look

Today I thought I'd do a full face look. I've started posting the products I'm wearing in the eye tutorials that I do, but thought I'd go ahead and actually give a little more detail about how I use them, what I like about them, ect. I start by applying Benefit's the POREfessional to most of my face. I like this because it reduces the size of your pores, aka, it fills them in which makes your skin looks smoother. For me I notice most of the different on my nose and the apples of my cheeks. As far as the primer part of this, I don't personally think it does much, but I like the look it gives me so I keep using it. =) Next I apply my foundation. I've been loving the Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation. (I talked about this in my december favorites .) I use the color 240 Soft Beige and I apply this with the Real Techniques Expert Face Brush. I pour a little onto the front of my hand and basically dot a little on my face with my finger. Then I just bu...

December 2013 Favorites

I hope everyone is having a great New Year! The upper midwest is celebrating by having a high of -13 degrees today. Yes, seriously. I was debating on doing another monthly favorites or doing the yearly favorites that everyone else seems to be doing, but I really haven't been focused on beauty products for the whole year, so here I am with December 2013 Favorites! Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation in 240 Soft Beige and Real Techniques Expert Face Brush This brush was really a discovery in November, but since I didn't do November favorites, I thought I'd lump it in here. It's. Amazing. If you use liquid foundation, go buy yourself this brush right now. It will change your life. I used to try so many liquid foundations and just never liked the way they sat on my skin until I bought the beauty blender. But that little baby is expensive. This brush is not and does the same thing. As soon as I used it once, I immediately started pulling out all my old founda...
