Benefit Boi-ing Concealer $18.00



I have tried many concealers to cover up those dark under eye circles that cant get enough of me for some reason! lol After reading some good reviews on Benefit's Boi-ing I went ahead and tried it ...... and I love it! It has excellent coverage and doesn't leave that cakey effect under your eye. It also doesn't fall into any wrinkles you might have and make them look gi-normous, like so many concealers tend to do. I would definitely recommend this one! I love it!

Sephora Brand Lipstick

Sephora Brand Lipstick $12

Hello! So just like every makeup lover, I am eternally obsessed with Sephora! I go in there a few times a week as it is literally right outside my job. Whenever I go I may have good intentions on getting one specific item, but always end up leaving with multiple things I didn't even go there to buy! lol Anyway, recently I have bought some Sephora Brand Lipsticks. They have an amazing variety of colors and are very moisturizing with just the right amount of shine. But on the down side, they have no staying power what so ever! Which is really sad, cause I really wanted to love these! If you don't mind re-applying often throughout the day, then these are great! But if you are looking for something that's going to stick, this ain't it!

Boscia Luminizing Black Mask $34.00

Boscia Luminizing Black Mask $34.00

So, I just got done using the Boscia Luminizing Black Face Mask. I have to say it did leave my skin feeling very smooth, however it does not remove all the black heads and clogged pores. First of all, don't be terrified when you see it, because it is very black lol.

It has a medium consistency and is not too thick. You have to use a pretty good amount of it, make sure no skin is showing through the black or it will not peel off properly. I left it on about a half hour to make sure it was dry and would peel off. I was basically able to get it off in one peel with only remnant's of the mask left that I had to wash away with water.

I have very combination skin, it is oily and flaky at the same time, this definitely helped with the oil but not so much for the flakes, still have to stick with an exfoliator for that. I did like the glow it gave me as well.

I would use this again, but I would not pay full price for it. I would definitely buy on Ebay or with a coupon only because the amount you have to use per use is not worth the price., but it does have some nice results!

Hope this was helpful!!! Enjoy!

MAC Studio Fix Powder Compact

Ok, so I was thinking, what should my very first post be about? I looked into my every day make up bag and there it was ... my MAC Studio Fix Compact. What better to write about then something Ive been using for 10 years. Studio fix is amazing for moderate coverage without that heavy feel. They have a huge variety of colors so you can always find one that matches. You can use it alone or its great over your liquid foundation. I also have sensitive skin and it doesn't make me break out at all! So for those of you looking for a fool proof powder cover up ....look no further!
