Highlighter Sticks – The Best Makeup Invention Known to Man

October 9, 2016

hey y’all!
it’s kate! happy sunday I hope you all had a great week last week.
today, I was inspired by (some may say overuse) my use of highlighter.
if you are unaware of what highlighter is, highlighter is a makeup product, it basically adds shine to your face and can be applied in certain spots to create a certain look of dewy glow.
i love using highlighter on my face because i feel like it helps me add that extra “glow” that looks good for my face. I love using highlighter ‘sticks’ (in stick more solid form rather than powder) because they are much simpler to apply (and for me) they tend to look better.
so today i wanted to share with y’all my favorite stick highlighters, or stick highlighter that I have been wanting to try…
let’s get started!

  1. glossier haloscope bronzer -$22
  2. milk makeup highlighter -$24
  3. clinique chubby stick sculpting highlight -$23
  4. milk makeup holographic stick -$28
  5. nars ‘the mulitiple’ -$39
  6. benefit ‘watts up’ cream highlighter -$30
  7. benefit ‘girl meets pearl’ -$30

i hope that you enjoy my post today!

My Favorite Beauty Products

August 28, 2015

hey guys!

how have you guys been doing? i hope well! well anyway today I am gonna share with you all of my favorite beauty products. I don’t use them too much though because I don’t wear makeup everyday.

okay, well lets get started:

  1. Diorskin Nude ® BB Creme: This product is one of my favorites. I got it in New York in 2013! And I am still on the same bottle. But anyway this product is the bomb and its so soft on my skin.

2. Benefit Watt’s Up! Highlighter: This is such a simple lovely hi lighter. Its easier than powder and its just so simple. I love the blender on the other side.

3. Mario Badescu Special Healing Powder: This powder is perfect, its so matte over makeup, but it also works over nothing just to be a nice color powder.

4. Benefit Boi-Ing Concealer: Okay I have raved after this concealer before, but I am seriously in love with it! Its by far my favorite beauty product of all time.

5. Clinique ‘Chubby Lash’ Fattening Mascara: This is a new mascara but I seriously love it. I have blue eyes so this blue mascara is like perfect for me. Its not too light so it just gives a perfect tint for my eyes.

6. It Brushes Your Superheroes Full-Size Travel Brush Set: The It brushes are seriously the softest brushes I’ve ever used. They aren’t too expensive and not too cheap, because they feel great. Another plus side to this set is that these are the best brushes for everything you would need (I mean its not a full set, but its close to it.)

7. LORAC ‘The Skinny Palette – Black’ Eyeshadow Palette: This palette is from the Nordstrom Anniversary sale so its no longer available, but these are the best colors and lorac is such a nice brand!

What is in my Cosmetic Bag?

April 24, 2015

Hey guys!

I wanted to share with you guys what is in my cosmetic bag! Some have you guys have been asking about my favorite cosmetic products.

So starting with my bag, its an old-school Clinique bag that has a Lilly Pulitzer pattern on it! I love this bag, and its kinda a huge bag, which carries a hella-alot of stuff.

One of my favorite cosmetic products is Boi-Ing from Benefit. Its a concealer, and it is so perfect. It covers so well, and I am in love with this.

Okay, so I use a foundation primer from the Body Shop called Instablur. This product is alot like the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer. This is a clear matte product for putting on your face before foundation, and it is great.

I love the Clarisonic Mia 2, it is the greatest product for a lazy person like me to wash their face. When ever I travel, I bring this everything because its 100% a necessity!

I carry two EOS lip balms. One stick and one ball. These are so smooth, I know I talk about this alot, but I also love this product.

I also always carry some nail polishes. I love having my nails painted, cause they look so much better painted! These are no certain colors, I use any color that I want.

I use an eyelash curler from Shiseido, that I bought at Sephora. I don’t always like to wear mascara, that is why I use this alot.

I also use Urban Decay 24 Hour Setting Spray, which helps my makeup stay in place.

thanks for reading guys! I hope y’all enjoyed this!

xoxo
