In this video, I do an extensive review on the new L’Oreal Infallible line, specifically their new Pro-Matte Foundation and Setting Spray!
This foundation makes a lot of claims that make it seem too good to be true!! 24 hour wear? Demi-Matte finish? Skin-like appearance because of an airlight texture? PLEASE!
Well, there was only one way to find out… 🙂
I also tested their new setting spray, which many have been comparing to Urban Decay’s cult favorite, The All Nighter Setting Spray. Does it measure up? You’ll have to watch to find out!
In this comprehensive haul, I discuss a variety a products I purchased over the last month, and give full reviews on each product, and I swatch most products, including the ColourPop shadows!
I think it’s a better use of time to do a haul and the reviews of the products at the same time. Don’t get me wrong, it’s fun to watch people unbox things and show what they’ve purchased, but don’t you get a little anxious when they say, “And I’ll let you know what I think of this later…”? I DO! So I’ve been using all of these for a little over a month and prepared to give you my thoughts! Enjoy!

This look is great for clubbing, a fun special occasion, or any event when you want to feel fun, girly, sparkly, and glamorous! This was out of my comfort zone but I definitely love how it turned out!

I was tagged by beauty blogger BeautyJunki101 to do the 50 Facts About Me Tag! This was fun to do, and hopefully gives you a better idea of who I am behind the camera! Enjoy!
I was so thrilled to get my order from ColourPop Cosmetics! I ordered 7 of their terrific shadows, and have shown you an initial first impression swatch here. From top to bottom, they are Girly, Get Lucky, On the Rocks, Hammered, I Heart This, So Quiche, and Liberty. I will do a more elaborate and in depth post soon, but I was so excited not to share!
These have a very cool texture, unlike anything I have ever felt before! They feel cool and wet, but apply and dry down like a powder. It is so crazy! I love them, and at only $5 a pop, I want them ALL!
They can only be purchased online at ColourPop.com!
In this video, I do a tutorial for a soft and sultry makeup look. This could be used for a night out, or add some lashes if you like and you have an insanely gorgeous look for an upcoming holiday party! This look only uses one palette for the eyes, the Natural Eye palette by Too Faced. By only using a few shadows, you can achieve an extremely multi-faceted look very easily!
Brows are essential to the face. As I have said in the past, if your eyes are the windows to the soul, the windows are the curtains, so FILL. THOSE. BABIES. IN!
The way someone fills in their brows is a personal choice. Some go for the drag-queen brow. I’m talking carved out with concealer, using a pomade or a super dark pencil. It is a bold look, and those who can pull it off are fierce, and I tip my hat to you!
This tutorial below is a HOW TO for a different kind of brow, my kind of brow. The filled-in, but NATURAL looking brow. I use a drugstore powder set by Milani that includes 2 shading powders, as well as a highlighting shade for under the brow, as well as a brush, a sponge brush, and a set of tweezers. It is a fantastic set!
I did this very on trend makeup look two ways for you in this video. One way is more demure, but still fun! The other is bolder but still appropriate for day time (well, to ME anyway!). It is actually very easy, and if you do each look separately, it should only require 3 shadows. I used the Morphe 28S and 35N palette, but you can get away with only using the 35N, in my opinion!
Enjoy!
Please S U B S C R I B E 🙂
This smokey eye is perfect for fall AND winter! I show you a less dramatic and more dramatic version in this video!

It is an October Favorites video! For those of you who are unfamiliar with “Favorites” videos, they are a casual, chit-chat style video where you talked about the products you loved the most that month. It’s like chatting with your girlfriend! I love Favorites videos because you can discover a ton of new products you may want to try based on the YouTuber’s recommendations! And they tend to be seasonally appropriate as well! It’s a definite WIN!
