Tooth Care Routine!
Hey girls! I wanna share my Tooth care routine! So lets get right into it!
1- So the first thing I do is brush my teeth with the Crest 3D White Advanced Vivid Toothpaste in Vibrant Mint (I use a soft bristled toothbrush)
2- Next, I floss my teeth with mint-waxed dental floss.
3- I wash my mouth with the Crest 3D White Glamorous White Mouthwash.
4- Every 3 days or so, I use the Crest 3D White strips, in #4 Whitening Power
So that is basically it! I do this routine every morning and night!
Have a good day!

Maybelline Color Whisper Lipstick Review!
Maybelline recently came out with a new line of lipsticks called the Color Whispers. I currently have four colors. They are:
Cherry On Top - Bright, Fuschia
Coral Ambition - Pinky coral
Who Wore It Red-er - very red
Dare To Be Bold- light nude
These lipsticks remind me of the Revlon Lip Butters because they have a sheer coverage. I do believe that the Revlon Lip Butters have more pigment to them, but the Color Whispers have more of a natural tone to them. I am looking forward to buying more of these colors and testing them out! I will most likely get a berry color next time! These lipsticks are approximately $5 at target (prices may vary depending where you live.)
These are my thoughts on these lipsticks, and I hope you enjoyed!
-Sarah
(TIP- Moisturize you lips with a chapstick about 15-30 minutes before because these lipsticks tend to crease on chapped lips!)

Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation: REVIEW!
I recently bought this foundation and I found a few things that I liked about it, so I would like to share those with you!
This foundation had medium-full coverage. I have found that applying this foundation with my fingers then blending it out with a powder brush or a kabuki brush is the best way. This foundation is somewhat buildable, but if you try to apply more than two light coats, it may start to look cakey.
The name of this foundation is "3 in 1", which means the foundation acts like a primer, foundation, and concealer, all in 1. I have found that applying a primer on before this foundation makes it stay on longer. This foundation is more like 2 in 1 for me because it works good as a concealer if you apply small amounts on red spots and blemishes, but I dont think it works as a primer.
This product comes in a large variety of shades, so everybody will find a match :) I am in the color 825!
Have a good day!

Urban Decay Naked Palette
Hey! So I got the Naked palette by Urban Decay about two months ago, and I've been able to experiment with it so I could post a review!
I like the packaging of this palette a lot because of the velvet feeling. I also enjoy how you can fold the top flap back so it's not in the way. The pots that the eyeshadow colors are in are very deep! I love all the colors in the palette because you can make a lot of different looks! The colors are Virgin, Sin, Naked, Sidecar, Buck, Half Baked, Smog, Darkhorse, Toasted, Hustle, Creep, and Gunmetal. The names are so creative!
Virgin is a light, shimmery color. It's good for a hi light.
Sin is a light, shimmery, peach-undertoned color.
Naked is a very light brown color. It is also one of the few matte colors in the palette.
Sidecar is a brown-gold, shimmery color.
Buck is a few shades darker than Naked, and is also matte.
Half Baked is a very gold, shimmery/glittery color.
Smog is like Buck, but with more shimmer.
Darkhorse is a deep brown with lots of shimmer.
Toasted is golden-brown color with a tiny bit of peach undertones.
Hustle is like Darkhorse, but with somewhat red undertones.
Creep is almost black, with lots of shimmer.
Gunmetal is a blue-black-smokey color with shimmer.
The colors are very pigmented and show up as their true color. The palette comes with a Urban Decay Primer Potion sample. This isn't the BEST primer, but it does the job and it's still pretty good!
I hope you enjoyed this review and you should try out this product!
Thanks!

Daily Makeup Routine!!!
Hey girls! Ok, there's not really an introduction to this post, so lets just get straight to the point!
(just saying- all the products I use can be found at drugstores)
1) I moisturize my face and neck with Simple Hydrating Light Moisturizer.
2) I spray the Elf Makeup Mist and Set spray all over my face.
3) Now, I put on the Maybelline Colorstick Concealer on any red spots or under my eyes.
4) Next, I either put on the Fit Me foundation by Maybelline in the color 125, or I'll put on the Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse foundation in the color Nude-Light.
5) I set this with an Elf Clarifying Pressed Powder in the color Ivory.
6) Now i will use the Elf Golden Bronzer Palette and use the color in the top left, which is a medium-light brown color, and contour it.
7) Now I'm gonna use an Elf Blush in the color Glow, which is a peachy-coral color.
8) I take the Little Black BeautyBook "cool python edition" palette by Elf, and chose a shimmery, golden brown eyeshadow, and apply that all over my lid. I will go over that with a matte off-white so that it pops out more and so you can tell it is there underneath the eyeliner (because i have very small eyelids).
9) Now I will take my Essence 100% Splashproof eyeliner pen in Ultra Black, and apply a thick line to the upper lash line, and wing it out.
10) Next, I'm gonna take my Avon Ultra Luxury Eyeliner in Black, and apply it about 1/4 way through my waterline, starting from the outer corner.
11) I apply a few coats of the Waterproof Maybelline Falsies Volum' Express mascara in the color Brownish Black
12) I usually take a Wet n Wild Lipstick that is similar to my natural lip color, then go over that with the Hard Candy Plumping Serum - Volumizing Lip Gloss in the color Life Preserver.
13) Lastly, I will take the Elf Mist and Set spray once more and spray all over my face.
This process usually takes me 15-20 minutes in the morning. If you were wondering what brushes I use, they are all Elf ones. So as you can tell, most of the products were Elf and Maybelline- My two favorite makeup brands. Sometimes I like to switch up my products, but as of right now, this is my daily routine.
So I hope you enjoyed reading about how I do my makeup everyday! I've gotta go drink some apple cider!
Cya!

ULTA!
Hey everybody! So I went to Ulta Beauty Supply about two weeks ago for the first time and I loved it there! If you have never been to Ulta, it is basically a large makeup store that has high-end products AND drugstore products. They had brands from Revlon to Urban Decay! I bought all drugstore products when I was there. I got 3 NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils, they were originally $4, but they were on sale for $2. I got them in the colors Black Bean, Dark Brown, and Milk. I love all of them, but I think that they should make them waterproof so they don't rub off during the day. I bought one other NYX product, which is the Eyeshadow Base. I got the skin toned one and I honestly don't like it that much. Some people say that it is like Urban Decay Primer Potion, but I don't think it did a good job at all. It did not make the eyeshadow look more visible and it did not protect the eyeshadow from creasing throughout the day. On the other hand, I was very impressed by the Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation. I have never tried a product from this line of Maybelline before, but I liked it! The name pretty much speaks for itself. It is a foundation, in the form of a mousse, and it makes your face very matte. I have tried applying it with a makeup sponge, and a brush, but I found that the best coverage was by just using my fingers. I barely have to use concealer on any imperfections if I use this, and that is good because it saves time! I also got the Maybelline Falsies mascara, and I just posted a review on that, so go check it out! The last product that I bought was from a brand called Essence. It is the Sun Club 100% Splashproof Eyeliner pen (that's a mouthful!!!). I have noticed that all of my liquid eyeliners have been rubbing off and creasing throughout the day, and I realized that none of them were waterproof, and I found this eyeliner pen for about $3! I use this product every day! I love it. It glides on very nice. The felt tip could be a little smoother because it is kind of rough, but that doesn't bother me that much.
So I hope everybody liked this post, and I will be posting an updated daily makeup routine soon!
TTYL!
