Getting Pretty


These essentials are my go-to products, they are always in my make up bag and for good reason! 

1. NARS Bronzer in Casino | I am naturally tan to begin with but when I want to add a little contour to my face, this is my go to. It's a natural looking bronze with a hint of gold shimmer. For lighter skin tones Laguna is the way to go.

2. Benefit High Beam | I don't have very prominent cheekbones, so to highlight them to give that high cheekbone illusion, with a pearly highlight, I use Benefit's high beam. So fast, easy and just a dot does the trick!

3. tarte Amazonian Blush in Blissful | If you haven't tried these blushes, take a look next time at Sephora or Ulta. There's tons of shades to choose from and the powder is so pigmented and lasts all day.

4. tarte BB Cream Primer | I bought this product because I thought it was genius tarte combined a BB cream and a primer because I disliked putting on so many different products on my face. This primes your face (and makes your makeup last super long) and has the benefits of a BB cream. 

5. Benefit Hello Flawless Liquid Foundation | This foundation matches my skin perfectly, lasts long, and makes it look airbrushed flawless. What more can you ask for in a foundation?

6. NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer | To cover up any pesky imperfections, this concealer is my go to. It's creamy, easy to blend, natural and lasts through the day. Doesn't crease or settle into my pores which is hard to find in a concealer, for me at least!

7. Clinique High Impact Mascara | This mascara, lengthens, creates volume and does not feel clumpy or 'crispy' if you know what I mean. It basically feels like you're not wearing any mascara, which is what I love the most about it.

8. Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette | Obviously, a cult favorite. The range of colors are varied neutrals, with a good mix of glitters, shimmers, and mattes. The amount of looks you can create with this one palette is endless. Day look or night out look, this palette can do it all.

So those are my go to makeup essentials, you can tell a lot about a girl by what it is in her make up bag. Hope you enjoyed! What are you're products you can not live without?

  1. I'd love a before/after shot of the clinique mascara since I've never tried it before.
