CURRENT FAVORITES!

Hey guys! I thought I would update you on some products I've been liking lately since I don't really do regular favorite posts. I'm a creature of habit and I know what I like and I usually stick to it. But every season or so, I like to switch out everything from my foundation to my lippies, just to keep things interesting. I even added a small life favorite, too. So let's get to it!


Face: I really needed a new primer and I was tempted to go back to a silicone based formula, but I learned that I just don't like that feeling on my skin. This Rimmel Fix & Perfect primer feels like a moisturizer and it doesn't have that heavy sensation under my makeup. It's not as good at blurring your pores, but it does feel like it's prolonging the life of my makeup. So if you have dry skin or don't like silicone, I would suggest this one. And it's cheap, too! I couldn't resist buying Maybelline's new Matte + Poreless foundation because I'm an oily girl and it's hard to find a good drugstore foundation that won't break down through the day. But let me tell you, this stuff lasts! It has a liquidy consistency so it feels light on my skin (can you tell that I like light makeup? haha). The coverage is really good and I'm tempted to buy another color and use it during the warmer months as well.

Lippies: In my mind, it' spring. So, I've brought back my MAC Sunny Seoul lipstick. It's my favorite pink color that will just brighten up your face and give you a fun, flirty look. Plus, the name is adorable. And my new love, I finally bought one of the Dear My Jelly Lips by Etude House and my shade is in JPK004. This formula is super glossy and it just melts when it comes in contact with your skin, which makes it very comfortable to wear and moisturizing. I love a good orange lip so I've been reaching for this a lot.

Tools: Okay, kind of late on this one, but I got myself a Beauty Blender! I hate that this magical little sponge is so good, because it's $20. My parents would shake their heads at me if they found out I paid $20 for a stupid sponge. I swear, there must be a fairy putting enchantments on these things before they ship them out to Sephora because I have not gotten a bad application since I've been using this. Good job creators of the Beauty Blender, you've got me hooked.

Life Bits: You guys might be thinking, what is that pom-pom thing in the photo? Well, recently, I've been obsessed with a Taiwanese drama called Dear Mom. Ahh, you guys, it's so good I can't even talk about it. It's about four sisters and their adventures through life. They go through divorce, cheating, secrets, school, work, and of course, love and cute boys. One of the sisters has this homemade key chain of a broccoli with a pom-pom for the top and it was just so adorable that I had to make one for myself. That's how obsessed I am with this drama. If you have sisters or like romantic dramas, you should really watch this.

There you have it! Let me know some of your recent favorites! See you next time! XD
