April 2014 Beauty Favorites

Hey everyone!

Since April was a very busy month for me, I kept my makeup as simple as possible. Mainly, I just applied some form of a lip product and headed out the door! 

Keep reading to see my beauty favorites for April!

~Maybelline Blush Burst - This lip balm is practically clear, but it does work well to moisturize lips on the go!

~MAC Morning Rose Lipstick - Oh how I love this lipstick! It gives your lips a soft rose flush that is natural yet put together!

~MAC Flair For Finery Cremesheen Gloss - This gloss is a new must-have for me! It's a soft pale nude with just enough pink to make it wearable anytime of the year! 

By the way, both MAC products were gifts from my friend Lauren in our Spring Swap Box this year! You'll see plenty more to come this next month, because it's summer and I don't have to worry about classes!

XoXo,
Whitney

March 2014 Beauty Favorites!

Hey everyone!

~Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer in Apricot

~Lavender Lip Balm

~Juicy Couture Perfume

~Pink Fresh Vanillas Dream On Body Spray

What are your March 2014 beauty favorites?

February 2014 Beauty Favorites!

Hey everyone!

February has been a month of pink, glossy lips and bronzed eyes! And, I thought I would share with you some of my most used beauty products during the month. 

~Buxom Lip Gloss in the shade Candi - This gorgeous coral, pink gloss is perfect to wear alone or over a matching pink lipstick!

~NARS Lipstick in the shade Roman Holiday - My all-time favorite pink lipstick I own! It is moisturizing and never disappoints!

~Bourjois 24 Hour Cream Eye Shadow in Or Desir - Bourjois' Cream to Powder Eye Shadow makes a great base color to any eye look. A lot of times, I wear it by itself!

~MAC Mineralized Eye Shadow Duo in Until Dawn - MAC is one of my favorite higher end makeup brands, their products are normally spot on, and this duo is no exception! 

XoXo,
Whitney

Note: I purchased the lip gloss myself, the lipstick was a gift a year or so ago from my mom, and Lauren sent me the eye products as gifts for Christmas! I am not associated with any company mentioned above, nor am I paid to feature their items. As always, my reviews and opinions are 100% my own!

January 2014 Beauty Favorites!

Hey everyone!

January has been a very eventful month for me personally, and I am excited to see what February brings! And, of course I'm super excited about Valentine's Day (even though I don't have a boyfriend or anything!) I wanted to share with you a few of my favorite products this past month, that I always found myself reaching for over and over! 

~MAC Archie's Girls Blush in Cream Soda - This blush is very natural, and works perfectly day or night! 

~MAC Mineralized Skinfinish in Centre of Attention - I have fallen in love with MAC's Mineralized Skinfinishes, and this one is my first thanks to Lauren! I love that the soft pink mixed with the hint of gold gives my skin a healthy glow without looking fake! Plus, this makes an awesome eye shadow!

~Urban Decay's Naked 3 Palette - Need I say more? This palette is a beautiful combination of matte, shimmer, and glitter rose gold shades! Perfect all year round, and great for work!

~Maybelline Dr. Rescue Baby Lips in Coral Crave - I love this lip balm! It gives just a hint of color, while keeping my chapped lips at bay.

~MAC Flair for Finery - Another amazing Christmas gift from Lauren! I've never tried MAC's Lustre lipsticks before, but I'm in love now! This nude shade is perfect to pair with any eye look, and makes me look tan!

~MAC Archie's Girls Lip Glass in Summer Sweetheart - Another first for me, as I have never tried a MAC Lip Glass before, and I'm sold! This is the perfect milky pink shade, that is great to wear on its own or over a lipstick.

There you have it, my January 2014 Beauty Favorites! What are yours?
