Laura Mercier Mint Snow Caviar Stick


I bought this about a month ago but I just decided to pull it out today. I'm a big fan of the colored under eye liner look. This is my go to way of adding some color to my day to day makeup. This color really pops my brown eyes. It is metallic and creamy, it blends out seamlessly and is the perfect pop of color. I also bought a pink and purple one. I can't wait to try those out as well.

Recent Purchases

Here are a few things I've purchased over the last week. 


Revlon Precision Lash Glue        $5.00 at CVS

This is my hands down favorite lash glue. It dries so fast and makes putting falsies on a breeze. I've really been getting back into false lashes so I had to grab this and it really is great. 





Tarte Aqualillies Palette       $38.00 at Ulta

I originally wasn't going to purchase this palette but after seeing a couple of rave reviews I just had to see what it was all about. I've only swatched the colors so far but they are very creamy and pigmented. I love that most of the summer palettes this year have a turquoise-blue (yep, i made up a color) shade. I think it adds a lot to the palette because I especially love to place that color under my lower lash line to pop the look. I have used the blush and it is gorgeous. A creamy peach shade that just screams spring/summer. The bronzer is the famous Park Ave Princess bronzer which we all know and love. It's a great matte bronzer. The champagne highlighter also is beautiful. I see myself using this palette all summer long. I'm very glad that i decided to look twice at this palette because it is definitely worth picking up. I am going to love this on vacation. 








PJandPoppy Tassel Necklace in black       $18.00 via Etsy

I've been looking for a cheaper alternative to the HRH Collection tassel necklace for a while, so when i saw this i figured I'd give it a shot. I'm so glad I did, it is the same vibe as the HRH one but at a fraction of the price. You can tell it is very well made. I love it. It is so classic that it can be paired with a variety of different outfits to add some flair. This baby is going to get a lot of use all summer.

Tarte Timeless Lipstick

This is the gorgeousness known as Tarte's Aqualillies lipstick in Timeless. Let's just all take it in for a minute. Xoxo


Laura Mercier Ritual Dupe!

Okay so I saw that the Hard Candy blush in Bombshell was a dupe to the new and highly coveted laura mercer ritual powder. Now i haven't seen the LM in person but from pictures online it seems to be very similar. At 7$, this will do for me. Xoxo






Lorac GloGetter Palette (Ulta Exclusive)

I originally wasn't planning on picking this palette up but when I saw it in person I just knew it was meant to be mine. It is absolutely stunning. If you love colored eyeshadow, you will LOVE this. You need it. (I will be your enabler, blame me). Xoxo




Tarte Airblush Maracuja Blush in Shimmering Pink

"A creamy, long-wearing blush fuses the ease and blendability of a cream blush with a soft-focus and airbrushed finish".

I was in the mood for a new cream blush so I went to Ulta to try out a few. I was thinking about the Tarte cream blushes because I already have a bunch of the powder blushes and they are fabulous. This one is no exception. Creamy and blends out like a dream. The color is a mid tone blue based pink with golden shimmer. It leaves the prettiest flush of color on the cheeks. I am so happy with this purchase and I now have my eye on the shimmering peach one. ;) Xoxo
