everyday essentials

Beauty product junkie? Guilty! I have about 20+ different eye shadows and lip glosses in every single shade imaginable. Needless to say I only use about 2 of them on a regular basis. Let's just say I like having options ;)







Fresh Lip Treatment in Rose-My all time favorite! Simply the best! I am somewhat of a lip balm addict and this one definitely tops the the list. It moisturizes and protects with spf 15. It is a lip balm, not a lip stick or lip gloss It has the slightest rosy tint so if you like having a natural look with a little color this is perfect!



Shu Uemura Eye Lash Curler

Guarantee you will find this in every makeup artists' bag. It gives you the perfect natural curl, unlike other ones i've tried that give more of a crimp.
step 1- curl lashes starting at the base and squeeze
step 2- repeat with a slight tug as you curl from base to the end of lashes
complete with a coat of mascara (see below) and quickly curl again with less pressure so your lashes don't get stuck on the eyelash pads or get clumpy



L'oreal Voluminous Million Lashes Mascara- the tiny bristles get to every lash and separates making this the perfect mascara!


Cheapie but goody! Felt tip eye liner pens are an easy way to draw an exact line especially if you're no expert.
Cover Girl Line Exact liquid eyeliner pen





YSL Touche Eclat- A cult classic! Doesn't really have the consistancy of a true concealer but perfect for under the eyes and outer corners. Instantly wakes you up!






Bronzer is a must! I hate a matte powdery finish. Especially in this cold weather. Just makes you look dehydrated and older than you really are! I prefer a glowy dewy finish. I alternate between the two. Both give a peachy bronzy glow.

Lorac Tantalizer Baked Bronzer






My signature scent is Marc Jacob's Daisy. A light mixture of sweet and floral that is fresh and not over powering. Usually i just spritz a tiny bit behind my ears. When it comes to fragrance LESS is more. Especially if you're using other products that contain a scent (ie lotion, hair serum,deodorant)
