Beautigasm

Hi Loves!

Spring is the time for newness and many people are shopping their behinds off right now…new wardrobes, new shoes, new haircuts and colors and of course NEW BEAUTY LOOKS!

I want to show you guys my top 10 beautigasms for spring. These are all products I have not tried or seen in action…I may not get them all but I lust for them all the same!

Lancome LA ROSERAIE Illuminating Smooth Powder

First up is something I have been lusting over for a while… the Lancome LA ROSERAIE Illuminating Smooth Powder. It is a beautiful rose and light pink transparent shimmer for highlighting. I love the palette and the beautiful effect of the rose…

COLOR OF THE YEAR COLLECTOR’S EDITION SET

You guys know I have always been a pink girl but I am loving ORANGE for spring. I find that orange is shockingly flattering on me especially on my eyes. It brings out the light honey color in them. I have been dying to try the Sephora and Pantone COLOR OF THE YEAR COLLECTOR’S EDITION SET. It is $118 dollars worth of orangey goodness for just $68.

L’Oreal HIP Studio Secrets Professional Color Rich Cream Liner

 Moving right along on the color bandwagon, I couldn’t skip out on some drugstore wants especially when the products coming out in the drugstores these days are seriously competing with the high-end brands and even WINNING! I have been amazed by the quality and innovative stuff I have been finding right at my local drugstore. So, I am adding a few things to my list that I will surely pick up since they are affordable and convenient to grab. L’Oreal HIP Studio Secrets Professional Color Rich Cream Liner in Teal is a gorgeous mermaid like shade that makes me look forward to summer.

Last summer I was obsessed with blue for my eyes and used a L’Oreal palette to create my favorite summer look. So this year I think I will try this cream liner and see how it holds up to the heat of summer.

EFFACERNES – Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer

Now, I have never tried a waterproof concealer but I have heard great things about this one from Lancome: 

EFFACERNES – Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer. I plan on giving this baby a test run as soon as the weather warms up.

Lancome Teinte Idol Ultra 24 Hour

Also from Lancome, not meaning to favor one brand over any other honestly, is their Teinte Idol Ultra 24 Hour. This foundation supposedly requires no powder or touch ups all day and I would love to see what type of texture it has and what the coverage is like. I know lots of gals that love it so this too is on my to try list!

NYX NEON collection

The next products are from NYX. I am a sucker for all things color and I just LOVE this NEON collection for Spring and Summer. Right now NYX is giving it to their FB followers for 50% off and free shipping making it only 25$. I think I may *have* to take them up on this awesome bright offer I LOVE the neon yellow polish and bright orange lipstick the best based on looks alone.

Nars Albatross

Nars, Nars, Nars….how I love your blushes but I have never tried your highlighters until last week at Sephora when I met and fell in love with Albatross. It’s so smooth, so bright, so beautigasmic and I MUST have it!

You can’t tell from this photo but the way it infuses light to the skin is exactly what I look for in a highlighter. I can’t wait until this baby is mine

Benefit’s Bella Bamba

Since we are talking about blush, well sort of, let’s talk about Benefit’s Bella Bamba. I just love the bright coral color and in general I love Benefit blushes. They never let me down so I know they are worth the splurge. This color is so hot with a tan! I can’t wait to try it :o)

L’Oreal, Now You Sea Me

I absolutely LOVE wearing seafoam blues and greens in Spring and Summer. They give an adorable vibrant pop of color and I think this color from L’Oreal, Now You Sea Me, is flattering on all skintones. I can’t wait to grab this little guy and paint my nails

Pantone Sephora brushes

My last item on the wish list is also from the Sephora and Pantone collection it is this adorable brush set in orange. I just think it is so adorable and I am a sucker for cute brush sets. I have rarely been disappointed in a Sephora brush but I would definitely go see these in person before I grabbed them to check softness and density.

So Loves…there it is, my current wish list. What are yours? What 10 things would you buy if money was no object? Why not create your own beautigasm folder on pintrest and pin them and let me know about it so I can check what makes you beautigasm! Find me on pintrest under what else? Beautigasm

SO! Like it or not WE ALL have days when we wake up and say WHO THE HECK IS THAT in the mirror looking back at me??!!

Today was one of those days for me my eyes are swollen from lack of sleep and allergy issues. My fatigue is seriously showing and my skin is just lifeless!!

SO…What can you do when you have a day like that and you aren’t prepared to give yourself a HUGE make-over? Here is what I did and it took about 3 minutes no joke.

1. Apply a BB cream or tinted moisturizer to your face. I used Garnier SKIN RENEW BB cream but I also love Origins Vitazing.

2. Conceal your under eye area to help hide your fatigue. Make sure to get the inner corner of your eye and a touch on your lids too.

3. Blush- I used Tarte Natural Cheek Stain in True Love. A stain will look more natural and last longer. It will also have a fresh dewy finish instead of a powdery one.

4. Sweep some highlighter on your cheek bones and down the center of your face to give a soft glow that makes your face pop

5. Line your lips with a fresh colored liner wither a pink or peach and then top with a little gloss. I used Lancome liner in Alpine Glow and L’Oreal Infallible Gloss in Posy

6. Set your conceal with a little powder I used L’Oreal Visible Lift Serum Absolute because I am loving its luminous finish, it isn’t too matte and I also love that it has an anti-aging treatment in it.

I didn’t even conceal any of my blemishes today I was going for no make-up make-up look. I didn’t want to go run my errands looking half dead but I just didn’t have time to do full make-up.

This is a look that works for anyone, it’s you only better

Try this and let me know what you think ladies!

Sending you a restful night of beauty sleep
