May Favorites

Hey, everyone! It's almost June! I can't wait for summer. May has seemed to go on forever, hasn't it? I thought I'd show you some of the stuff I've used this month.

NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder in Blonde

This stuff fills in my blonde eyebrows naturally, comes with two different shades and a wax, two little brushes, and was wicked cheap. I'm very impressed.

Maybelline Gel Eyeliner in Brown

This is a nice brown eyeliner that goes on and lasts. It can be used on the waterline or to do a nice wing. It's more natural looking than black, so it can be worn everyday. It comes with a brush, which I don't particularly recommend, but it's tolerable. I prefer to use the elf angled eyeliner brush, which I got for $3. 

bareMinerals Ready Touch Up Veil in Translucent

This is the stuff I use to set my makeup. I use a lot because I have oily skin, and it doesn't cake up very much on me. It helps to mattify my skin for a couple hours.

NYX Slide On Eyeliner in Jet Black

This is my favorite eyeliner for my waterline. It lasts all day, and does not smudge. In my opinion, it's better than the Urban Decay pencil liner! I am in love with this pencil. It's a definite repurchase.

Urban Decay Naked Palette and Naked Basics Palette

These palettes can easily create infinite eyeshadow looks. The shadows blend easily, stay put (with a primer), and look professional. You can make the most natural looking eyeshadow look, or a dramatic smoky eye.

NYC Smooth Skin Bronzer in Sunny

If you watch beauty gurus on YouTube, you probably know that this bronzer is the overall preferred inexpensive bronzer. The pigmentation is perfect, it blends nicely, and is easily buildable. I have fair skin, and it still looks natural on me. The best part is that it's matte!

C.O. Bigelow Rose Salve

This is my essential lip balm. One little tin lasts forever, and each tin is $5.50 at Bath & Body Works. I recommend this to all of my friends.

Now, for the best part--mascara!!

Urban Decay Lush Lash Mascara

This mascara provides incredible definition. I am officially in love with the definition. It also gives volume, length, curl, and conditioning properties. You can go really natural looking with one coat, or, with a few thick coats, you get insanely thick lashes without spider lashes or clumps. 

Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes!

If I could have one makeup item, this would be it. It provides definition, volume, length, curl, and it's not filled with chemicals that cause cancer. My lashes look insane with this. I was blessed with naturally long lashes. However, they are blonde at the tips. This mascara stays on so it looks like I have insane black lashes. I get so many compliments on my lashes whenever I wear this mascara, it's insane. I know you've probably read me raving about this mascara a million times, but it's that good. I recommend this to everyone!
