Spring looks!!
For spring it's time to open up for more colors that you don't normally wear, but will have more fun with!! When it comes to spring time and makeup, you can experiment with pastels, purples, pinks, oranges, blues, and yellows.
For spring looks I see a lot more color on the cheeks with liquid blushes and tints. At times I prefer liquid blushes because the product looks more pigmented, but very natural on the face, giving you the perfect amount of color. Some of my favorite liquid blushes, tints, and pressed powders that I find for the spring time are: Natasha Denona Blush&Glow, Kaja Cheeky Stamp bendable blush, Milk blush and lip tint, Too Faced Papa don't Peach blush. For more affordable products for blush: Sephora Colorful cheek ink gel, Milani Rose powered blush.
For a beautiful and affordable spring glow you can use Milani soft focus glow, and for a purple shaded highlighter that is also affordable, you can use Milk Holographic Highlighting Power.
Most importantly for eye looks, I found spring inspired palettes that include pastels and light colors. Some palettes I found are: Anastasia Beverly Hills Norvina eye palette, and Fenty Galaxy eyeshadow palette. For a more affordable product: Revolution Beauty Makeup Obsession Dream With Vision eyeshadow palette. For this colorful season I have noticed a lot more colorful eyeliners, Too Faced Sketch Markers have a variety of colorful eyeliners you can use for this season.

Beauty products I use + my routine
These are the skincare products that I use daily! Two new products I've bought recently is the Mario Badsesu A.H.A Ceramide Moisturizer and the Mario Badescu Seaweed Night Cream. What I have been liking about these two products is how the moisturizer keeps my face hydrated and feeling smooth and almost a creamy like texture, but the seaweed night cream has my face feeling smooth, clear, and not as red in morning when I put it on the previous night.
The Murad Clarifying Cleanser always clears my skin when I have a few breakouts or acne that has not went away. When cleansing, I always wash my face twice a day, once in the morning and at night, this a great product to used to get rid of stubborn acne and extra oils on your face at the end of the day (at least for me), but if you have sensitive skin try cleansing your face once a day.
Exfoliating is so important for the skin and everyone should be exfoliating!! The St.Ives Apricot Scrub is what I mainly use for exfoliating and many others use St. Ives as well. I find St. Ives is the best for getting rid of dead skin and getting very smooth skin afterwards. When exfoliating you should exfoliate at least 3 times a week, to not irritate the skin. By doing this you can have your skin feeling smooth daily.
I really enjoy the Neutrogena hydro boost because after I wash my face in the morning and evening, my face gets very dry. The Neutrogena hydro boost feels like a water like substance on the face, that has your skin feeling refreshed and quickly blends into the face, without feeling too oily.
The Neutrogena Pore Refining toner is a product that I have been using for a while now, and I find that it is important to make it a part of your daily skincare routine. I find it best to use the Neutrogena Pore Refining toner with a cotton ball and applying it in your T-zone after you shower, because the steam from your shower opens up your pores. The Neutrogena Pore Refining toner takes out any left over makeup and deeply cleans your pores so they are not clogged.

Valentines Day nail and makeup looks♥️♥️
With Valentines Day approaching, it’s a sweet time to start wearing pink and red colors for eye and lip makeup looks. For nails you can bust out the softs pinks and different shades of red for nails. Essie has a variety of pinks and bright/dark reds. For Valentines Day inspired makeup looks, the Urban Decay Modern renaissance eyeshadow palette and the Urban Decay Naked Cherry palette has beautiful tones of light pink and darkish pink/red colors, with the Naked Cherry palette, it also has a collection of cherry like colors. Another palette is the Too Faced Peachy mattes, which has a bunch of shades of pink, peach, and maroon. For more of a affordable look, the Maybelline Lemonade craze has shades of brown, pinks, and a vibrant pop of color of lemon. For lips I found a makeup brand that is cruelty free called, Lime Crime, that has gorgeous shades of red and pinks.
Summer time makeup looks!!
Now that it’s summer time, I'm feeling natural, fresh colors with the season and new healthy refreshing skin care . Here are some of my favorite looks for the summer time!!
Products of the month
For a little while now I’ve been using The Crème shop rose water makeup remover. This makeup remover I bought at Bed Bath and Beyond and it has honestly benefited my face!! I find that certain makeup removers irritate my face and get my face red, but The Crème shop rose water makeup remover is very soothing when taking a full face of makeup off and causes my face to be clear and rid of redness. Also another important factor about this brand and makeup remover is that it’s 100% vegan and cruelty free, which is something to look out for when finding the right skin care for you.
Winter makeup looks
For the winter time I really like a thick eyeliner and feathered eyebrow look. It’s very natural but also a glamorous look. I love to use the Urban Decay eyeliner, it applies very easily. For my eyebrows lately the product that gives me the feathered thick eyebrow look is an eyebrow spoolie with formula, that keeps my eyebrows in place. I love to use Joah brow pencil and gel.
