Nars Blush in Orgasm

This has to be my all time favorite blush ever! I love this blush sooo much because it looks natural with some shimmer and it blends well and the color is amazing!!!




Orgasm Blush

The one thing I love most about nars blushes besides the colors it the amazing packaging! So below is a swatch of what this blush would look like.


And if you think this might be too pink for you when you blend it into your skin it's not as pink as it is in this picture it's more of a rose gold color which is soo pretty! And its good for any outfit, it's just the perfect blush and it goes with everything!!

You can buy this at narscosmetics.com for $28

L'oreal Paris Telescopic Explosion Waterproof Mascara

This is one of the weirdest mascara's I have ever seen but don't let it fool you this is a good mascara to a certain point. When you use this the first time don't forget to wipe the little extra mascara on the top of the brush off. 

The nice thing about this brush is that it can get all your eyelashes and it dosen't clump them unless you use too much. You only need to pull it out and that's enough mascara for one eye then you dip it back in and pull it out and you have enough mascara for the other eye but if you use anymore then it will get really clumpy and it will just look bad.


The one I got is in water proof and this mascara overall works great! And if you want to buy one you can get all of them at walmart for $8.44 and there are 3 kinds: blackest black , carbon black , or black in waterproof.

Now two of my favorite NARS eyeshadow's are Lola Lola and Ashes to Ashes because they make such a perfect natural look and they go with each other so well.



And the packaging for these eye shadow are so sleek and pretty! (left: Lola Lola, right: Ashes to Ashes)

Lola Lola Shimmer EyeshadowAshes To Ashes Shimmer Eyeshadow

These are Nars's shimmer eyeshadow's and they retail for $24 each on narscosmetics.com. Also that is a lot of money just for one of them but you do get a lot of product so you might want to think about buying them.


L'Occitane Pivoine Flora Collection

My all time favorite flower is Peony's and that's why when I heard about this collection I fell in love with it! L'Occitane Pivoine has created a floral collection based on peony's which is so amazing!!!





This collection celebrates the peony! And it has beautiful packaging and wonderful smell that are not that over powering!


And you can also get their ballerina pallet that has some pale girly shades in it with water color ballerinas on the front of it.


Then if you want to see another of their collections then you can check out this one below which is a limited edition filled with eyeshadow quarters, bronzer with gold shimmer spray (that wont last long), face cream duo's, eyeshadow duo's, and lip glosses and lipsticks!


The two things that did catch my eye was the lip gloss in a beautiful packaging and the Eau de Toilette Intense roll-on perfume because of how cutie it is!
                                                 

And some more products from L'Occitane Pivoine Flora Collection:

Sleek Au Naturel i-Divine Pallet

Sleek is a makeup company you may of heard of but they have really good prices on there makeup and alot of their makeup is really good and the one thing that I like from sleek is their Au Naturel i-Divine Pallet.


(colors left to right) Top: Nougat, Nubuck, Cappuccino, Honeycomb, Toast, and Taupe.
(colors left to right) Bottom: Conker, Moss, Bark, Mineral Earth, Regal, and Noir.




Another thing I love about this is the case the eyeshadow's are in because it look so pretty and sleek and plus it has a giant mirror so you can see yourself putting on the eyeshadows.



The one downside to these eyeshadows is that some of the lighter colors dont show up as good as they should so you might need to use primer.


But for the darker colors they show up really well and this pallet is still worth the money even though the lighter colors are badly pigmented.


You can buy this at sleekmakeup.com for only $10.50 which is such a great deal!


MUA Heaven and Earth Pallet

If you need a affordable natural pallet filled with neutral colors then look no farther! This pallet is the most affordable natural pallet I found that has great colors!





This pallet comes in 12 different colors that are pigmented so when you put them on you will notice them! The formulation is smooth and it can get dusty and messy but for the price it's worth it!


The one bad thing about these is that if you want them to last for a long time then you will have to use primer because with out it they wont stay long.


And that's what all the colors look like when you apply them. You can buy this at muastore.co.uk for £4.00 or $6.21! So if you have the money I would defiantly recommend this with primer!


Vivo Cosmetics




When I was looking at another makeup blog I came across this! Vivo is an affordable makeup line that has everything and lots of color choices. Theses are not all their products but there the best and if you click here so you can see the review on each of these products and how much they are and for a different review on vivo products click here! And if you click her you can go to vivocosmetics.co.uk I would of put the american one on here but it wouldn't let me go to that website.



Revlon: Photo Ready Primer & Airbrush Foundation

Here are two of Revlon's photo ready products that lot of people like and they are affordable and you can get them anywhere so that's a plus!


The first one is revlon photoready primer! Now one of the best things about this primer is that it is pretty cheap and you can get it at target for only $10.49!


Revlon PhotoReady Perfecting Primer - .91 fl oz

And another thing about this is it has this stickiness to to help the foundation stay and it makes it easier to apply the foundation with this primer under it!



This is what it looks like when it comes out of the bottle and the one nice thing about the color is it has just the slightest tint of pink in it that makes your face look brighter.


Once applied it disappears after you start blending it in! So if you want to get a new primer I would defiantly recommend this one! To see a review on this item click here.


And the last one is revlon's photoready airbrush foundation (the newest one). And one of the weirdest things about this foundation is that it is in a aluminum case and it has a warning label on the back.


Now one of the things I love most about this is how it comes out in this weird frosting in a spray can would an when it comes out it get bigger so be careful on how much you apply because it does come out kind of fast.


And when you touch it, it caves in sort of. And if you like putting it on with a brush you can just spray some on your brush and then dab it on your face and blend it out if it doesn't give you that airbrushed feel.


Also a word of warning if you have oily skin do not buy this foundation because when you put it on it has like shimmers in it to make your face glow and if you have oily skin it will just make it oily but it is really good for dull skin that needs coverage but not that much coverage.

You can buy this at target for only $10.49 which is the cheapest I found! To see a review on this then click here.

Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Ultra-Light Skin Perfecting Makeup SPF15

This product has been getting alot of rave because it looks perfectly natural and good for all skin types!! And if you keep on reading I will tell you more about this awesome foundation!


This foundation is not a full coverage foundation but it's more of a light to medium coverage that you should where with powder but you don't need to put primer under it and you should use concealer with it! The best thing about this is it's like a second skin because it looks so natural on your skin and provides good coverage and looks kind of dewy on your skin and feels very light and you only need a tiny bit of it for your hole face!

Warning you do have to shake it up before using it because if you don't then it will be really watery coming out. This last's about 8 hours if you don't use primer, but if you do use primer it will last all day! And if you are scared that well wearing this since it does have spf 15 that it might show a white cast on your face well taking picture's but it doesn't and it might have a little white cast but nothing that noticeable. And the one thing bad about this that isn't good is that it doesn't have a wide variety of colors so before buy it you should try it out first.  

This is a pricy foundation for $45 and it may look small but it is the normal 30ml and it smells really good and you can get this at nordstrom.

And if you want to watch some reviews for this click here or here to see another one with great info about this foundation.


Topshop: Skin Tint

This is like a tinted moisturizer that works really good and that is affordable! It is a sheer product so if you just want a little bit of coverage just to go to school or to work then this would be the perfect product for you and much easier then applying a full face of make up.





This comes in three shades: Fair, Medium, and Dark. The only thing I don't like about there selections in color is that if you'r really pale then fair might be to dark for you. So try it out before you buy it because they are a little darker then they should be.


The other really nice thing about this is that it come with a pump and you don't need that much to cover you full face and it comes in really nice packaging that you can take anywhere with you!

This comes in 30ml and is $20 at topshop (but you can only get dark) And I really love how this goes on your skin because it feels really light! And if you can't get it online if you go or are in New York you can this at topshop's shop in New York!
