MINI MAKEUP HAUL!




When people wonder how I am never able to save...this is exactly why!!! Walking into Sephora is like walking into heaven. So, naturally, I do the right thing and purchase everything I need, and by need I mean don't really need but I must have. I usually never stick to the same products because I am always in search of something better. When it comes to concealer, the ones that have stuck by me the longest are makeup forever and smashbox camera ready concealer. I use the liquid makeup forever for under eye concealing and the smashbox camera ready to cover blemishes and that big ass nasty unwanted pimple that always makes her appearance on a special day. This time, I decided to try two different products. I've been using the laura mercier "secret concealer" for my eyes and if you are looking for that nice "dewy" look, make this your new friend. The coverage is great and it applies smooth and it's very long lasting. To replace the smashbox stick concealer, I have been using the Nars stick concealer and the results are very similar to smashbox except I find it provides a smoother finish. Coverage is really good too!

I've tried several different gel eyeliners including clinique, bobby brown, makeup forever, and mac but this time, I'm giving STILA smudge pot a chance. So far VERY DARK and long lasting. I haven't been wearing it enough to test out the smudge-proofness of the product but when I do, I will definitely update. This is a product I would consider (based on how long it lasts) using for my own wedding, because so far, I can trust it to last! Let us see how it goes!

Now, my favourite....MASCARAAAAAAA! I am a HUGE fan of L'oreal Voluminous and L'oreal Million lashes, they have always been consistent in my makeup bag and I can always trust it to give me great results for a great price (since we all know how quickly we can go through mascara!) Benefit's Mascara, "They're Real" is now added to my list of favourites. It definitely gives length and lots of it! So if you are in the market for something new, give it a chance.
